Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time time.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Time, luck and load.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
So Michael Dari Show is on the air. Chill right.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
I know I can order Maga gear online, but do
you know of a place in Houston where you can
buy Maga merchandise? I said, I do not, but I've
been asked many times, and she said it might make
for an interesting Facebook post.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Where do you get your Trump gear?

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Just a thought, Well, if you want something that is
subtle but cool, also fashionable but comfortable, Magpies, which is
in sugar Land and on bel Air, has a shirt
that Ramone and I both went and bought. It's a
golf shirt and if you look at it, if you
just glance a little bit, you'll notice that it's Trump's face.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
It's pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
And I was told a couple of days ago they
had about one hundred left. Anyway, that's Magpiesgifts dot Com.
I don't know where people get I'm assuming they get
it all online.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
I don't know where people get.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
They now have the black Maga caps that that Jim
I mean that Elon Musk was wearing the other day,
and I'm.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Told that you can you can get those there. I
want to get to.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
So several of you made reference to the Something About
Mary movie scene. I haven't seen that movie, but Ramona
explained it to me during the the U break the
clump in your hair and what happened between him and
was it his girlfriend or he's just dating her or
what's going on first date? Okay, all right, fair enough.

(02:06):
The Houston Business Journal Fast fifty profiles or lists fifty
companies that are seeing explosive growth. I'm always interested to
see what's going on, and I think the number one
category this year was commercial construction. Seem like almost a
third of the companies were in commercial construction. And that

(02:29):
is a sign not just of each one of those
companies doing better than they would otherwise. Locked Solutions Yesterday
kind of fits in with that because they have their infrastructure.
You're building buildings, you're buying their pre cast concrete pieces
to channel your cords and wires and.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Infrastructure.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
One of those companies that we are talking to is
Tent Houston Tents and Events. Aaron Randall is the CEO. Darren,
welcome to the program.

Speaker 4 (03:03):
Thank you for having me.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
I'm going to ask you a series of questions and
I want you to answer in a second or less
without a lot of thought. Okayvermon't help me out here.
Can we get some pacing? Okay, because this is off
the cuff.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Okay, you can't think about it and it can't be
like we well.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
We just try to help people, because you know, if
we can just help people.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
I hate that. I want to hear the down and dirty.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
Okay, ready, authentic?

Speaker 2 (03:26):
You got it, all right?

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Authentic? Very well said? Are you a founder of the company?

Speaker 4 (03:33):
Yes, sir?

Speaker 1 (03:34):
What years you found it?

Speaker 4 (03:37):
January first, twenty twenty.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
How old are you?

Speaker 4 (03:41):
Thirty four?

Speaker 1 (03:42):
How many employees.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Seventy?

Speaker 1 (03:46):
What? Yeah, seventy annual revenues it's on the list. So
do you have to tell.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (03:54):
No problem seven and a half profitability percentage?

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (04:03):
Do you take a salary?

Speaker 3 (04:06):
I do?

Speaker 2 (04:06):
How much?

Speaker 4 (04:10):
Rather not share?

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (04:12):
All right?

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Well, I mean I thought I tried.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Do you have any family members working more?

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Not?

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Not?

Speaker 4 (04:18):
Not enough? Is that a good enough answer?

Speaker 1 (04:20):
Do you make more? Do you take out more or
less than five hundred thousands?

Speaker 4 (04:24):
No? I take out less than that.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
Okay. Do you have any family members in the business?

Speaker 3 (04:30):
I do.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
My wife and I both. She is the CEO. I'm
the chief operating officer and I have a few not
immediate family members, but other family members in key positions.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Have you ever does she have a separate office from you?

Speaker 4 (04:48):
Uh, no, sir, it's we're together.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Is it just the two of y'all?

Speaker 4 (04:53):
It is, but we both focus on different parts of
the business, so we find a way to make sure that.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
It's not where directly, Todd, have you ever closed the door.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
And just said something like, yeah, it's good thing. Everybody
else is around here, you know, even one time? Have
you ever done that?

Speaker 4 (05:10):
No? No, no, not mean man. We've been together since
freshman year in high school. Well there was enough time
for that, But.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
You've never even said just kind of because sometimes you
have to remind a woman that there's still a rage
and bullet when he tells, you know, I can dress
up real nice and put on a tide and be
polite and conjugate my verse.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
But don't forget, no, man, that far is not me
one time.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Okay, why do you think why do you think this
business has taken off? That that's explosive? Well, let me
ask you this. How did you start it? Did you
take on investors, bank debt, family.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Members, cast out all of savings from working in corporate world,
cast out my wife's Texas retirement system. She was an
elementary teacher at Oak Force Elementary and uh here An
hisd and I just took all that money and started
buying the equipment that I could that I could turn
the most profit early on. And I'd been in the

(06:08):
industry five years before I started on my own, with
whom I had some customer base, No, would never work
with them. The other reason I'm in this industry in
the first place, it was another company aps very a
lot smaller company.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
And how much did you have to put in?

Speaker 1 (06:26):
How much you have to capitalize to start this business?

Speaker 4 (06:29):
I started with about one hundred and twenty thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
What did you get for that? What'd you buy? Did
you start with tents.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
Or table tables, some linens, some chairs, things that I
could put on job sites and if I needed to
sub rent the other items from other companies, which became
a shortcoming because no one in this industry would ever
do it the way that it needs to be done
and with quality and passion behind it. So ultimately what

(06:59):
that means is our tried relying on as many other
vendors in the industry to pad their pocketbooks as long
as I could, and ultimately everybody showed their face and
didn't carry the same level of quality.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
That I expect and what we do here at.

Speaker 4 (07:15):
Cheuse intensive events. So that's led me into a lot
of different areas of that of equipment and inventory for us,
And I always say it every time. Half of the
things that we have in our inventory, if you asked
me day one, it wasn't something I thought we would do,
even including the recent acquisition I made of another company
this summer, was areas of items that I did not

(07:35):
want to do from day one. But when I can't
rely on someone else to do it and do it
the right way, then the next path is is I'll
invest everything back in and keep it moving along and growing.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
So that's where we.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
Are for these events that you're setting up tents and
things like that. How would you what category of event
would you say is really popular right now?

Speaker 4 (07:59):
Corporate events as our primary focus, and behind that nonprofit
related events and.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
Schools, interesting uh, outdoor party rental, crawlfish bawl equipment, cookoff tents,
tailgate party, holiday parties, wedding party rentals. Which of those
is bigger as a percentage of your operations than you
expected it to be. Doesn't have to be the biggest,
but you didn't expect.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
It to be that big.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
Weddings, to be honest, I planned my own wedding before
I got in this industry because my wife brought me
bills home and showed me what it was going to cost,
and we didn't have that kind of money, and so
I kind of managed it myself, and that was my
first entry into that side of things.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
Weddings, funerals. It's amazing. It's it's yeah, hold on just
the moment. His name is Darren Randall. It's Houston Tents
and Events. The website is Houston Tents Events dot com.
Sung Michael Bay, Good Show, Boklock.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
Houston Tenths and Events is one of the Houston Business
journal Fast fifty. They've had amazing success in just a
handful of years. You opened the business, Darreon Randall during COVID.

Speaker 4 (09:23):
An incredible time to start an events company is twenty twenty.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
What month.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
January first?

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Okay, So like my friend Matt Brice who opened Federal
American Grill for I think Valentine's Day, you're just starting
to ramp up. You're not getting any momentum yet you're
in the slog and days, and all of a sudden boom,
the government, who doesn't have to meet payroll they get
their money automatically, says shut everything down.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
You can't do that. That would destroy the business. What'd
you do?

Speaker 4 (09:58):
So we had ten good weeks to start the year
and had a promising book of business we were looking
at for the rest of the year. We did Twitter's
annual global conference here in Houston the first and second
week of January, so that led us off a good
path and we were able to do all of our
rodeo cookoff teams for Houston Rodeo, which was a big

(10:18):
bonus to give us a little bit of padding. And
then on March tenth, I believe it was is when
I got the news that I called my wife and
told her things are about to get real weird and
real tough. And at that same day I stopped in
the Chick fil A of all places, and was getting
rained on, as was the employee there, and realized that
they could use a canopy, and so I made a

(10:40):
deal with her that she'd never get rained on, and
she told the manager that I needed to speak with him,
and turns out it was the operator of that location
in the Heights and lo and behold, he beat me
up on price, but I locked him into a multiple
month agreement and under the notion that he would share
it with all the other Chick fil A's and so across.
It spread like wildfire from that Sunday when I went

(11:02):
and built their first draft through canopy to maybe June,
so two and a half three months later I did
up to a total twenty eight or twenty nine Chick
fil A draft through location. So if you anyone in
Houston ever went through a white tent and a Chick
fil A draft through Houston Tenson Events, that's what saved
Houston Tenson Events. At that time, before all the COVID
vaccine sites and testing sites and everything were online, we

(11:26):
were doing restaurant drive throughs for Chick fil A and
a bunch of other friends that own the restaurants around
town as well.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
What do you do to secure a temporary tent like
that to keep it from blowing away, because there's got
to be some level of windstorm rating it so you
don't hurt somebody.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
So we only buy the highest quality manufacturers. So all
the tents that we have we put out have engineering
for them, and in that engineering it shows how much
weight PSI is supposed to be held in concrete, if
we're anchoring in concrete, which is the strongest method, and
beyond that, we use concrete blocks for everything. So you'll
never see Houston into the events tent anywhere around town,

(12:02):
no matter if it's a ten by ten with water
barrels on it, which is the old school way of
doing it, and it is not. There's been enough case
studies over the last ten years showing how much weight
needs to ballace a tent, and ultimately we're trying to
do it the safe right way, as if my family
were going to be under that tent somewhere, and so
quality and safety it is how we handle it with

(12:23):
concrete blocks or or anchoring or staking in the ground
if we have approval and grass or.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
Asphalt, what material what kind of canvas are they using now,
and how is it different for those tents.

Speaker 4 (12:39):
Most of the tents on the more economical side, or
sixteen ounce on the more industrial commercial side, or twenty
two to twenty four ounce vinyl. Obviously, we take it
to the next level are able to do a lot
of customization which might have a marketing background before I
got into the events side of the event industry, and
so that's superman for me to try to modify and

(13:02):
make it not feel like a tent wherever we're building
it that I wanted to feel like it's part of
the aesthetics, part of the building, part of the restaurant,
whatever it may be. But the primary materials are obviously
aluminum on all the tentting framework and then vinyl on
all the canvas.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Where'd you go to high school?

Speaker 4 (13:22):
I'm actually from north of Memphis, Mumford, Tennessee, Mumford High School.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
And you went did did you go to college?

Speaker 4 (13:30):
I did, University of Houston, go Coogs And you came
out in what year? I finished in twenty twelve with
my bachelor's and my masters two years later in fourteen.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
And then what'd you do straight out of school?

Speaker 2 (13:48):
So?

Speaker 4 (13:48):
I worked in college for Kevin Summons staff at the
University of Houston with football as a football operations and
recruiting assistant for two years and then the first year
my third year. For my first year, I did equipment management,
so I washed all the laundry and then went from
there and went over to the Houston Texans for a
season and worked on their business operations side, so not

(14:11):
directly just with the football day to day, and from
there went to comcasts and helped manage all of their
grassroots marketing activation efforts all over the city and hyper
local expansion outside of geographic central Houston. And that kind
of led me into a lot more events around the
city on a different scale than just sports related.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
My wife was on the Border Regions when you were there,
and those were some we were doing a lot of
UH events. We met at UH and eighty nine both
went there. Cool I got my undergrad she got her
graduate degree. She got her law school degree there. She
came here as a PhD student, but we spent a
lot of time on that campus, and then she re
engaged with the Border Regions and absolutely loved it. I mean,

(15:00):
that's been a thing that she's done in her career
that she's UH was in such a good It was
such a good time for UH. We'd had we had
a new president, someone was winning football games. I mean,
things were people forget you know, someone had his problems later,
but someone with the Koogs those were some Those were
some good years and and they led to a lot

(15:20):
of success. Oh yeah, I was reading last night, Darren.
It the UH TCU game was the ninth most watched
game in all of college football, which Aggie's in Ohio
State and UT can laugh about. It's fine, but for
uh to be at that level is pretty darn good.
And it was I think the second most watched Cougar

(15:41):
game in some number of years.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
It was at million and a half people. It was
a big audience in ten years or so. Yeah, yeah,
it was impressive.

Speaker 3 (15:49):
So so you we go to Comcast, and then where
do we go from there?

Speaker 4 (15:55):
The APS the first rental company I started at, and
what led me there was along all of my path
through college for college events around the campus and in
athletics and at the Texans we used another provider, and
then at Comcasts. Obviously, when you're working for a fortune
fifty things need to be well, old machine ran right.

(16:15):
All of the equipment needs to be top notch and
high quality. And I could never get I could never
get what I was paying for, if that makes sense.
And ultimately I went home to my wife one day.
We were supposed to huge comcasts was supposed to acquire
Time Warner Cable and that was going to expand Houston's
footprint across the whole state of Texas, and so I
was in a lot of meetings daring for this expansion.

(16:37):
Across the sixteen months, Comcasts spent at one point five
billion dollars, moved two of my direct supervisors across the
VP and the director across the country to different markets
to put them in strategic positions for this, and ultimately,
on the Friday afternoon at four thirty, get the email
of that that they're pulling it because the SEC was

(16:58):
going to strike it down as a monopoly. So, uh,
I looked at that and went home to my wife
and I told her, I said I think, uh, I
think I'm done with corporate world today. And she's like,
you know, to explain what happened, And she said, what
are you gonna do? And I said, I think I'm
gonna go do events. And she said, you're gonna go
do like event planning and management And I said, no,
I think I'm going to go do tents. And she said,
what do you know about tents?

Speaker 2 (17:19):
I said, I know there's a.

Speaker 4 (17:20):
Lot of people that don't know what they're doing and
aren't doing it the right way, and that there's a
great business opportunity here and it gives me a passion.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
Darren, I'm up against a break. I've got another interview.
I love your story, man, I love to see people
making it happen. You could tell stories for hours on
how hard you work. It's Houston Tents Events dot Com,
not like all worked up tents.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
Like tents you know you get underneath offends the tents.
It speaks for us, real Americans.

Speaker 5 (17:48):
I'm from the country and I like it that with.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Yeah, oh sayer.

Speaker 4 (18:12):
What so?

Speaker 5 (18:25):
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
America, who rides and ride.

Speaker 4 (18:37):
To see.

Speaker 5 (18:48):
Square, and to the Republic for which it stands, one

(19:21):
nation under God, indivisible with liberty and.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Justice for all.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
Several years ago, we had a young fellow named Scott
Presler on the show, and for most of you, that
was your original introduction to him, and many of you
have followed him since then. I know because you send
me emails. Hey, Scott's in Wisconsin, Scott's in Virginia, Scott's

(20:27):
in North Carolina. He's been heavy in the news of
late because he's taken up residents in Pennsylvania, which many
consider to be the state that maybe it may come
down to Pennsylvania at the end. He posts under the
name The Persistence. This guy started on a shoestring budget.

(20:47):
You can't miss him because he's got Crystal Gale hair.
He's got the best hair you've ever seen, is fabio hair.
And he's tall and lean with his long flowing hair.
And he is relentless, and he is wentlessly optimistic, joyous.
You can't hate him, although they try, because it's it's hope,

(21:07):
it's inspiration, it's it's it's aspirational for our country. And
he goes around the country registering people to vote. He's
been brought on stage with the likes of every political
leader you can imagine, including Donald Trump, to thank him
for what he's done. Why I like that is the
grassroots doesn't get enough. You win with with grassroots, you

(21:31):
win with with shoe leather.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
And he's our guest.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Scott Presler, welcome to the program.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
Well, gosh, I need to have you travel with me.
I mean, you're a great hype man.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
You know you said that years ago when I first
introduced you. Nobody knew you? And where are the thank
you notes? Where's the love? Scott? What drives you today.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
Are our country is on the verge of destruction. We
are twenty six days away from the most important election
of our lives. What drives me is I want to
say that on Tuesday, November fifth, that I've done everything
within my human ability to help save the country that
I love. That's what drives me.

Speaker 3 (22:17):
What surprises you most? I mean, you've literally traveled the
country and you've done it Jack Kerouac style, low budget.
I see you know pictures and stories of you saying, hey,
you know, I was out and you know wherever Virginia
and this couple said, where are you going to stay?

Speaker 1 (22:33):
I don't know? And they so you're staying with us
tonight tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
You're up and you're on the road, and you're out
there and you're registering, and you're relentless, and you're never down.
I know you are, but you don't show it. You're
always so positive. What has surprised you most about this
journey and this literally is the word journey is overused.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
You are on a journey.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
Well, it's been a long eight years, and I think
the thing that surprised me. Most is just the amount
of love that's out there. You know, you listen to
the CNN and the Democrats and the mainstream media, and gosh,
it's also depressing. And I think the media as a

(23:18):
whole is meant to just bring people down. But then
in real life, when I'm talking to people and I
meet people like Guru Karta and Houston who told me Scott,
when I was going through cancer treatment, I would watch
your videos to feel better. Or when veterans come up
to me and I mean, this is the most humble

(23:39):
thing that anyone could ever say to me, is they go, Scott,
I served our country, but I feel like you are
serving in a very different way that you are also serving.
Or when moms and dads they go, Scott, I am
waiting for my child to turn eighteen so you can
be the one to register my son or my daughter

(24:01):
to vote. And I think at its core, the whole
theme of this is I want people to recognize one
person can make a difference. Donald Trump is one person
who is helping to change the world. Elon Musk is
one person who is helping to change the world. Tulcy
Gabbart is one person that's helping to change the world.
We all play a role, and whether that's being Michael

(24:24):
Berry and having a radio show, or whether that's just
being a mom like Nicole Fried in Burke's County, Pennsylvania
that she is a mom to fifteen beautiful children. We
all play a role in helping to save our great country.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
I got caught up, Scott. I'm sorry, I don't have
a follow up question. Let's just sit here for a second.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
I got caught up.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
Because I don't really go to rallies because I do
the show all week and I'm beaten on the weekend.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
I just, you know, I want to rest and start back.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
But I felt the energy. You know, it's amazing because
you have to that energy anew every day to do
what you do. And you know, rock stars will tell
you this that no matter how great you were in
New York last night, you're in Philadelphia today and you've
got to bring that whole new energy. A friend of
mine that owns the one of the best tex Mex

(25:17):
restaurants in Texas, what you say in that saying something
says you're only as good as the last place you served.
So no matter how good you were on Tuesday night.
Those people coming on Wednesday, they want an amazing meal.
Right for you to get up and do this every
single day. His name is Scott Presler. You can find
him on Twitter under the Persistence more of his journey
to save America and how it should inspire you over

(25:38):
the next twenty six days to join him coming up.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Many times. I will talk a lot. I will get
caught up in the rhetoric the Michael Verry Show. I'm
a knucklehead at times. Oh bad, damn.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
Scott Presler posts under the name of the Persistence, which
is pretty clever. If you think about resistance suggests fighting,
and there's a time and place for that. But one
of the things you find that is and you know,
I talk to a lot of entrepreneurs, talk to a
lot of folks that have been in politics for a

(26:20):
long time. Ted Cruz would be a great example of this.
Donald Trump obviously a great example of this. If someone
succeeds over the long term, at the end of that success,
once they've reached their crowning glory, they make it look easy.
But what you don't understand is how many times they

(26:41):
get knocked down, how many times they wake up instead
of sleeping in, they get up and they most days
are not glamorous. I don't care if you're an NFL player,
a singer on the road, a small business owner, a
guy that runs a forklift. Most days, it's getting up
when you don't want to. It's it's moving and you
don't feel like it.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
It's tough.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
Persistence is such a great word and such great advice.
Scott Presler, where are you today?

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Thank you well. Actually that name was born because of
the Democrats. You know, when Donald Trump was inaugurated in
twenty seventeen, everything was resist this and resist that, and
I thought, gosh, that's so negative. Let's do something positive.
And so I've had that moniker for the last eight
years and I and the definition of persist, mister Barry,

(27:34):
is to continue on despite resistance. And I want that
to be our crowning accomplishment that no matter what comes
our way, no matter what is thrown to try to
derail us, we will continue to persist to stay of
our country. Now I'm here in Pike County, Pennsylvania. It's
just on the border of New York and northeast Pennsylvania.

(27:58):
And today I'm going out to a post office to
go set up at Trump table to meet voters where
they are, to give them Trumps signs, get people registered
to vote, because we still have twelve days of voter
registration here in the Commonwealth, and we're actually gonna have
people vote early. We're gonna get them to do an
in person on demand mail and vote and go to

(28:19):
their Bureau of Elections. Tonight, I'm meeting with Ambassador Richard
Grennell and Lehigh County. Tomorrow, I'm going to Lancaster, where
the amisharks, to the Green Dragon Farmers Market. On Saturday,
We're doing a block party for our beautiful Puerto Rican
and Dominicans courting the Hispanic vote in Reading Burgs County, Pennsylvania.
And on Sunday, I will be doing an event with
Jack Postovic and Tim Poole for a Day of Unity,

(28:42):
also courting our beautiful Libertarians and RFK junior supporters.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
Let's go You left out two very important important endorsements
that Trump has community groups. One is the Amish. Unless
you've done something with the Amish, you haven't done.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
Anything absolutely well. And I want to make it clear
here in Pennsylvania and in Wisconsin and places across the country.
The Democrats are attacking raw milk. And if you want
to talk about make America healthy again, this is about
property rights, land rights, and you guys know a thing

(29:19):
about that in Texas with Agena twenty one. And this
is about the ability to choose what to put in
my body. If I want to have nutrients, gents and
rich foods that I grow off my land and I consume,
that should be my choice and my right and religious
freedom is under attack. School choice is under attack, and
so we are courting the Amish vote and saying, listen,

(29:40):
now is the time that you must vote if you
want to preserve your ways of life.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
The other group we need to bring up is the polls.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
Because Donald Trump got the Polish American endorsement and I'm
told there are eight hundred thousand Polish in Pennsylvania.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
Did you know this?

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Oh? Yes, yes, this is a big deal. And especially
when we look at Europe in the threat of World
War three, when we look at Europe and the immigration
invasion that is happening to their countries over there the
same way it is happening in hours, and you bring
up eight hundred thousand, I also would be remiss not

(30:22):
to acknowledge our veteran community. And I'll tell you, veterans
don't take kindly to stolen valor Tim Wallas. Veterans don't
take kindly to Kamala Harrison sulting gold Star families. And
so I have a call to action. I want everyone please.
I know that Texas, you guys can no longer register voters,

(30:42):
but you can still go to your VFW. You can
still go to your American legion and court our veterans.
And we had one of our staffers, Pam Probson, she
visited VFW here in Pennsylvania and registered a ninety four
year old man that hasn't voted since he was thirty.

(31:03):
So please, I ask you, go to the fraternity houses,
go to the gun stores, go to the VFW halls.
We need to court voters and meet them where they
are every day until Tuesday, November fifth.

Speaker 3 (31:16):
What I love about your message, Scott is I talk
to people every day who thinks that Donald Trump is
going to save us and all they have to do.
As long as they cheer for Trump, then everything's going
to be okay.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
And no one understands. No, no, Trump's going to do
his part. You have to do yours.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
We have to use our gifts and talents wherever we
are in this world. If you work in a shoe store,
it's talking to the people around you and coming in.
If you work in a school, it's talking to the
voter age eligible folks. Everybody has a role to play.
And I think that rather than just preach about it,
you have shown by example by getting out there and

(31:54):
putting in the steps and putting in the time with a.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Very positive message all the way. I love that about it.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
I think that goes a long way. I've got a
minute and a half. I want you. You're just going
to take it to the break. Scott Raman, can I
get something aspirational? I mean gloriously aspirational. I want you
to fire the folks up to get out themselves and.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
Save this country in the next twenty six days.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
Thank you. Thirty percent of Christians are not registered to vote.
Please every weekend from now to election day, you visit
your church, you visit your synagogue, you go out there
and you court our religious communities. Thirty percent of Pennsylvania
hunters and forty percent of Wisconsin hunters are not registered

(32:40):
to vote. I need you going to the gun stores
to the gun ranges, and guys, I mean, I'm going
to put this into perspective for you. This election is
a make or break and while Donald Trump is our
candidate and we need to support him, you vote from
top to bottom in your state. You vote for Senator
Ted Cruz, you vote for your congressional candidates. Donald Trump

(33:00):
can only be successful if we give him a Republican
House and we give him a Republican Senate. Last, everybody
needs to check their voter status. Make sure you're an
active voter registered at your current address. And please, I
ask you, I asked for your vote for Donald Trump
and our entire Republican Party on Tuesday, November fifth, twenty

(33:22):
twenty four. If you want me to be more successful
here in Pennsylvania, my organization is Early Vote Action dot Com.
Please contribute today allow me to hire more staffers Early
vote Action dot Com. Let's stay to the country you love.

Speaker 3 (33:37):
Guys, Scott Presler, I know your parents are proud of you,
and I'm proud of you, and America is proud of you.
And I know Donald Trump is very grateful for you.
He said so from stage when he's brought you up.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Keep up the great work, folks. We're all in this together.
Thank you, Scott, thank you, good luck, full disclosure. He
finished early and I.

Speaker 3 (34:10):
Was just going to let him take it to the break,
so I just kind of stepped back and turned off
my mic

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Because I didn't want to interrupt, and then I ran
out of things to say.
