PM Show Hr 1 | Word is that Susie Wiles May Be Trump's Chief of Staff

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Verry Show is on the air.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
It's Charlie from BlackBerry's Mother. I can feel a good
one coming on. It's the Michael Berry Show.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
All. I have had a sense of a piece that
has come over me this week, not just because of
the Trump win, but something bigger than that, Bigger than
an election return, although I do truly believe this election

(00:47):
was that important, not just because it will be Trump
instead of Kamala, not just because but from a more grassroots,
ground up perspective, this means that you can have in
your fellow man. There are a lot of people who
broke out from their usual plantation, their usual cage, their

(01:10):
usual pet status, and said, you're not going to tell
me how to vote anymore. And we tend to look
at aggregate numbers.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
I had somebody say to me, you keep talking about
twenty five percent of black men voting for Donald Trump.
That still means seventy five percent voted wrong. Yeah, it does,
but it means that there are individuals in this country
who stepped outside their comfort zone and did something they've

(01:45):
never done before. And I'm going to celebrate that. I
think that's awesome. And the fact that one hundred percent
do it or five percent do it, there's still people
who did it, and that's worth noting. That's worth being
proud of, that's worth celebrating. Because when free thought, not

(02:10):
just free speech, but when free thought, when independent thought
is on the rise, good things are going to happen.
Good things are gonna happen. When conformity is out of convention,
When conformity is no longer what is demanded, it's so
much easier to just ride the bandwagon, to go with

(02:33):
the flow, to do what everyone else is doing. That's
why I learned so much about this country during the
COVID nonsense. I watched how many people I had respected
fall in line because they're experts told us, and I
saw so many other people. Some of them were Democrats
who said, my body, my choice, that means something. People

(02:58):
who were objected, people who couldn't be duped and full
You ever noticed the people who are duped and fooled
and scammed and defrauded. It's never just once, it's time
and time and time again. It's a character flaw. It's
an inability to think deeply. It's an inability to assess critically.

(03:21):
It's an inability to look beyond what you're being told
and promised and the shiny and look behind there and
see what's going on exactly. It delights me to see
how many and many of them are you. I read
your emails every day. Many of you are folks who

(03:41):
this is your first time to vote, or is the
first time to vote as you did, and you know what,
God bless you.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
It delights me.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
And now to get us started as we always do,
courtesy of the greatest executive producer in all the land,
Chattikoni Knakanishi, you we can do. It's by Friday. Drive
in and I go. I wonder what Chad's gonna put
in the weir we can review. I wonder wonder what
he's going to find in the week.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
That I have forgottenbody? Did you say.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
What you're going to do? I think I should stay
for wow, maybe longer if I do?

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Did? Is that what you said? Next to no?

Speaker 1 (04:23):
You don't think well? I make a joy for noises
to the Lord Bobby. I am a conservative, has voted
for Trump then the first went into office. After Bobby
called in, I got three emails in less than five
minutes asking for her number one. Am I running some
lesbian dating site here? Payley, Hey, I'm a conservative lesbian

(04:46):
John voting for Trump. I am overwhelmed with lesbians for Trump.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Long lines of people forming to cast their vote.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
On election day here in America, a day that many
people are calling the most consequential election in decades. Ran
Alan Lickman from American University predicted nine of the last
ten elections correctly, and he has a prediction who will
win the Oval office in twenty twenty four. Kamala Harris
will be a new path breaking president, the first woman president.
The Fox News Decision Desk can now officially project that

(05:16):
Donald Trump will become the forty seventh President of the
United States.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
Making a political comeback unlike any in modern American politics.
Election something of an indictment of the political information complex.
I mean, we've been sitting around here for the last
couple of weeks and the story that was portrayed was
not the true, and we were told Puerto Rico was.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
Going to change the election. Liz Cheney Nicky Haley voter
America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandaid globalist lost.
The people won There's so many different ways you can
slice this.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
There's so many different ways you can look at this, like.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
The only street I keep running for mod arrest me
or take me to Texas because I haven't any gets out.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Of this state.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
I think Michael Berry robs Michael Show.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
I like it.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
News has emerged that President Trump will tap Susie Wiles
would be his chief of staff. Susie Wiles will be
the first. Surprisingly, I just assumed. I didn't realize Susie
Wils will be the first woman to be the chief
of staff to the president in American history. Who would

(06:47):
have guessed? Who would have guessed? But it is to
be I did not know who Susie Wiles was. One
of the things that has come up is that she's Susie.
Some are all Wiles. And sports fans will remember the lush,

(07:12):
velvety voice of Pat summer All doing his football broadcasts
alongside John Madden. Boy was he ever wonderful? Boy was
that ever a treat? Well, she's his daughter, and so
I just assumed that if Pat Somerral's daughter is going

(07:32):
to be President Trump's chief of staff and she's Susie,
some are all Wiles? That he must have met her
through Pat Somemerol, but apparently that's not how he met her.
He met her in a more of a political context.
She worked for Jack Kemp back in the day. You
remember Jack Kemp as being Bob Dole's running mate in

(07:55):
ninety six. Jack Kemp formerly of the Buffalo Bills, another
football can action, and that's probably how she knew Jack Kimp.
This past summer all was revered. She was also Reagan's scheduler.
I have come to learn, and that's a very important role.
The person who keeps the schedule of a powerful person

(08:17):
has a great power because if you need an audience
with that person, it is a scheduler typically that has
discretion to be able to do that. It's not just
a ministerial position. She also worked for a governor Ron
DeSantis on his campaign, and as I understand it, had

(08:40):
a falling out with him and joined Trump. She has
been an operations director for Trump's campaigns in the past,
and now she is his chief of staff. Does it
matter that she's a woman? Yeah, yeah it does now.

(09:03):
Was she chosen because she's a woman? Absolutely not. I
can assure you of that, because Trump doesn't try to
impress people with such things. But is it worth noting yes,
when you understand that Trump surrounds himself with women in
positions of power and why he does that. I owned

(09:25):
a place in Houston called the Redneck Country Club and
it was a membership only club, bar, restaurant, and I
was hit up within the first year by I can't
remember how many reality TV shows because they had heard
about what we were doing. And I had a woman

(09:48):
as the president of the organization, a woman as my
director of operations, a woman as head of banquets and
catering and parties, and a woman who was booking our bands.
And so it was me and all these women, and
I was okay with, you know, women doing this and
why this is great. But when one of the folks

(10:10):
showed up to film, they thought that the women were
going to be in skimpy clothes and the men were
going to swat them on the butt, and the girls
were gonna giggle and say, now you stop that, buster,
and but get men out of beer, okay, buster, And
so they had this, and so they wanted to create
something that I didn't want and I didn't want to
ruin the place. So I sent them on my way.

(10:32):
But back to Trump. You see, if you want to
talk about what's good for women as women, abortion is
not the issue. Abortion should should never have been used.
And only a dumb woman believes that. And guess what
there are dumb women, dumb women. They're also dumb blacks,

(10:56):
dumb men, dumb whites, dumb Hispanics. You've got to be
honest and frank about these things. You have to stop
being afraid of the truth because when you're afraid of
the truth, he don't tell the truth. In a world
without truth is dark, bad things are allowed to fester
in the darkness.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
See.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Women should succeed when they're good at what they do,
not because they are a woman. That's what was wrong
with the Kamala Harris campaign to begin with. It goes
back to Joe Biden announcing and if you'll let him
be the nominee, he'll put a black woman as his VP.

(11:40):
And so the media ran with it. And then once
the election was over and people said, well, she was
only chosen because she's a black woman. They said, you
can't say that. We didn't need to you did, you said?
He committed to it. So I think this is interesting.
This uy Wiles's choice, because the chief of staff ends

(12:03):
up being a very very powerful position. You know, you
look at at James A. Baker, the third being George H. W.
Bush's chief of staff, and he would also be the
Secretary of State and the Secretary of Commerce. You know
that these are these are It's a it's a very powerful,
very powerful position. I think the model for the position

(12:26):
was Bob Haldeman to Richard Nixon and the guy who
was you know, in a corporate environment, sometimes the CEO
is the guy who is giving vision and overall structure,
but it's the president that is kind of or in
some organizations a chief operations officer. That's the person that's

(12:49):
making sure the trains are running on time. And that
is where having a good chief of staff frees up
the president to think big picture, to have important meetings,
to step back from it all and not have to
manage things and certainly not micro managed. That is the

(13:11):
job of a chief of staff. And all I hear
I don't know Susie Willis, but all I hear is
that she's absolutely wonderful, that she is loyal to Trump
and he to her. That was a big problem with
his first administration. Is he trusted people because he wanted
to show the swamp that he wasn't a threat, and
he allowed them in and they destroyed him. I mean,

(13:31):
you look at the generals that were brought in that
were disloyal, and I think he learned from that. I
think now he's not going to allow those types of
people into his administration.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
And that's why I think he's going to be much.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Much, much more successful this second term. I do believe
from all the King of Ding and this other guy,
Michael Barry.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
These are the kind of guys like a smacking air.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
I started with the new CPA from this year, and
I use January as an opportunity every year as kind
of a fresh start, you know, a new beginning, and
I do all my medical appointments. I go for my heart,
and I go for my dermatological and I go for

(14:24):
I do everything at that time.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
I do a deep dive into my.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
Insurance coverages, business, home, auto, all of that. I basically
just do a renewal and it's a good reminder. Look
it's January to reset, right.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
And so.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
My my CPA, this firm is very much about being
strategic about everything you do and look, I know, I've
got a bullseye on my back. It's one of the
reasons I I didn't go to January sixth is I
don't want to be in the crowd. I don't know
what's going to happen there. I didn't expect what happened

(15:05):
to happen. But you got to be mindful of things
like that. You know, if there's a guy like to
punch in the face, I have to recognize that if
that gets filmed, it goes national because people would love
to burn me. I know that, So you behave accordingly.
But I do like knowing what's going on with taxes
because I learned as a baby lawyer that tax policy

(15:31):
drives a great deal of our economy. And you know,
one of the things that Trump has been talking a
lot about, which is very exciting, is tax relief. You know,
you think about how many people that no tax on tips.
How exciting that is for people no tax on overtime. Well,
at some point you start asking deep fundamental questions, profound questions.

(15:57):
Why do we have tax on anything? Now that's not
a silly question. Why do we have tax on anything? Well,
we have taxes because we agree that there are certain
things that we want the community to pay for the
collective instead of the individual. Now this is where we

(16:17):
fall apart. How much of that do we want the
community to pay for roads? All roads or just some roads?
What about user fees instead of a tax? Will we
tax your income or will we tax your property? Will
we tax your purchases as a sales tax? Will we
tax the death of a person before they can hand

(16:39):
their money off to their loved ones, they're a state tax.
All of these things will drive what will cause people
to respond. See, government can make policy, but then the
individual is going to react and they're going to minimize
their taxes, whether lawfully or unlawfully. People are going to

(17:01):
try to find ways to hold onto more of their money.
So anyway, I'm always asking them questions about, you know,
what's going on with this tax policy? What does this mean?
What does this mean?

Speaker 2 (17:10):
What does this mean?

Speaker 1 (17:11):
So I get an email from Deroche Partners is my
CPA firm. It's based in Houston. There in Houston in
Dallas anyway, So I get an email from my team
today and it said, Michael as an FYI, the IRS
E file system will be shut down November thirtieth for
maintenance until sometime in mid to late January.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
Wait, what.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
For two whole months the system by which we electronically
file our taxes will be shut down for maintenance. That's
good enough for government work, but that's crazy, all right.
What this means is that anyone who has not filed
their twenty twenty three year in tax returns. Those were

(17:58):
the tax returns from laslast calendar year that most people
would have paid in April, or if you delayed them,
it would have been for a few months, would have
been until last month due to relief provided by Beryl Barrel.
Is a storm that some of you might not know about,
depending where you are in the country, that hit the

(18:18):
Gulf Coast, and as a result it meant that we
could file our taxes later. I didn't, but many people are.
That meant that our taxes wouldn't be due to be
filed until this upcoming February third. Well, if the system
is down, you can see where this would start becoming
a problem. So he says, what this means is that

(18:41):
people who have not filed those taxes early, but who
got an extension due to the storm that hit the
Gulf coast but this is going to be for all
of you, whether you got an extension or whether you're
going to pay it, pay a penalty. Should consider e
filing by this date of November thirtieth, otherwise you have
to pay per file your return and paper filing is okay,

(19:06):
but it's a pain in the rear and it potentially
subjects them to possible IRS audits. I've never been audited,
but I have heard from people that you don't want
to be audited, no matter how perfect you are. It's
a hassle. Right, you may not be speeding, but you
don't want to be pulled over by a cop.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
You could stay well.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
Under the speed limit, you still don't want to be
pulled over by a cop. Ever, just a hassle. So anyway, say,
while the E file system should be up by February three,
it may not be. People should proceed as if it
won't be up and running and be proactive and file
their returns by November thirtieth.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
If possible.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
It says about fifteen to twenty percent of our twenty
twenty three year end returns are still open because clients
are still pulling their information together to get it to
us to file So why do I tell you that
because your computer system doesn't go down for two months
for maintenance, right, because your customers would lose their minds,

(20:16):
but the government does. Part of the whole idea of
bringing Elon in to a government efficiency group is rethinking
everything about government. You know that government is insanely inefficient.

(20:38):
You know that whatever government does, they're going to screw up.
It's going to cost more, take longer, and have lower quality.
Everybody knows that there's nobody that doubts that we love
our military. Sure in fact, we all know somebody that
works for the government, and they might a wonderful person,

(21:01):
But you show me a hard charging, efficiency effectiveness oriented
person who goes to work for the government, and they
will go crazy, absolutely crazy, because the system is set
up for losers and layabouts and lazies. So good people
go into government and they go crazy because the government

(21:26):
doesn't want you to be a hard charger. You make
everybody else look bad. That's why they unionize as much
as possible to press this thing down. Crabbing a bucket.
Don't come in here making us look bad. We're going
to be here for life. We're not in any hurry.
This mindset has taken over every aspect of our government,

(21:50):
and over a period of time, what ends up happening
is the only kinds of people who want to go
into government are people that already share this mindset. No
customer service, Uh, very entitled. And so it ends up
becoming a self uh self uh preservation. It ends up

(22:12):
being a self Uh what's the darn word? Anyway, it
continues to be that as a result of it.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
So I say all that to.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Say this, I think we got big changes coming under Trump,
and I'm excited the Michael Berry Show. Good change is coming, friends.
It isn't just a victory in a campaign. Change is
actually coming. And that thrills me. It absolutely thrills me.

(22:46):
That things are going to be different. The world is
already different.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
Overnight.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
Putin has reached out to Trump and said, you know,
let's let's find a way to end this war. Putin
is looking for an exit strategy. I'm not going to
lie to you. I got a seventeen and eighteen year
old son. I got two sons that are prime draft age.

(23:14):
I don't want them going over and getting shot up
in some war that the Romney's profit off of. In
the Chenese profit off of I read a post by
a fellow named Mark Penn. Mark Penn was Hillary Clinton's
guy in two thousand and eight. Mark Penn is a Democrat.

(23:37):
He's a Democrat strategist, and he's at the top ranks
of Democrat strategists. He's the one who did the negative
ops on Obama, to tell people that Obama, to argue
that Obama wasn't born in the United States, that Obama's
father was a was part of the mau Mawing movement,

(23:59):
his father was a socialist and a bad guy in Africa,
and all the things that were exposed.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
He's the one.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
He's also the one who crafted a lot of the
strategy for Democrats over a long period of time.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
And this was his.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Takeaway from the election, and I think it's I think
it's pretty interesting, he said.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
He wrote lessons of the election.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
America is a center right country at heart. Only twenty
five percent are liberal and the other seventy five percent
will not be ruled by the twenty five Campaigns are
about issues and serious proposals and positions, and you can't
avoid having them demonizing opponents and using lawfare to try

(24:43):
to jail your opponents can and will bagfire. Voters don't
listen to Hollywood celebrities when it comes to voting. Most
voters see Hollywood is great for entertaining, but is far
removed from their concerns.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
When it comes to voting.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
The working class and middle America voters are done being
disrespected by college elites. They want real, merit based opportunities,
not government subsidies. Identity politics is ultimately losing politics as
voters care more about issues not identity when living their lives.

(25:20):
Young people are waking up and beginning to reject woke politics,
and their turn to the center is the surprise of
the election. America wants a country with real borders and
a working immigration system. America's innovation comes from preserving freedom
and opportunity, not from government direction. America supports Israel and

(25:45):
sees Iran as an enemy of civilization. The mainstream media
allowed itself to become a tool for a political party
and an ideology and needs to reform itself. And finally,
Joe Biden should ever have run for reelection, It's an
interesting takeaway considering where he started and who he is

(26:09):
and what his perspective is. You know, on the issue
of education. I read this stat and I think this
is I think this is quite interesting. Give me a listen.
Here the stat was most educated states in America and
least educated. Now, when I was growing up, you would
say someone was educated as a way to say they

(26:31):
were smart. I no longer do that. I now view
education sort of like finishing school. A thing you go to,
a thing you sit through, a thing you suffer through,
but not necessarily making you a better person, often not
changing you, and perhaps if it is changing you, not

(26:52):
for the better. So here are the five states that
have the highest education levels. Massachuset, It's Vermont, Maryland, Connecticut, Colorado.
Oddly enough, they're all blue states. Here are the least

(27:14):
Here's the list of the five least educated states in America.
States where people have the lowest level of graduate and
postgraduate degrees or or university and postgraduate degrees. West Virginia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas,

(27:36):
and Oklahoma. Now guess what those five states are all
red states. It turns out that the longer you go
to school, the more liberal you become. Now, let's think

(27:56):
about people we know. Let's think about people of influence.
Do you think people with PhDs have more or less
influence in this country than people with common sense and experience.
I give you an example. I read something that a
Democrat wrote. You said, hear me out. There's been this.

(28:22):
I gotta give you the context. There's been this argument
that Democrats need to get their own Joe Rogan. We
got to have our own Joe Rogan, so they can't
do this to us again. And he writes, hear me out.
Democrats did once have their own Joe Rogan. His name

(28:42):
is Joe Rogan, who is inherently not Maga. He was
a big fan of Obama, Bernie Sanders, Andrew Yang, universal
health care, taxing the rich, and he disliked Trump. And
Rogan reaches men that democrats need what happened with Rogan.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
See.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
The problem is sometimes success in politics can give you
a false sense of the extent of your mandate. It
can make you think that because you want an election,
one hundred percent of your kooky ideas are supportable when

(29:29):
they're not. It's sort of like none of us wants
to have guardrails in what we do. Your children don't
want to have guardrails. Creators like me don't want to
have guard ress. We want to have bosses and censors
and corporate this and corporate that.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
We want to be free to do what we want.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Musicians don't want to have a label tell them you
can't do this, you can't do that. They want to
do a forty five minute song. Why can't we do it?
Sometimes sometimes having people throw on the breaks, having people
ask that you justify your position, having some level of

(30:09):
questioning what you're doing and why you're doing it, without
having the discipline to do those things. If you're not
forced to do those things, oftentimes you don't and so
you make bad decisions. This is why, more often than not,
when a candidate is self financing, they will often go

(30:37):
off the rails, because when you're not having to ask
people for money, then you stop having to justify what
you're doing. And we all need to be challenged. We
all need to be questioned, and sometimes when you're not.
Long times, when you're not, you lose your edge, you

(30:58):
lose your ability to make your case.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
That's what happened to the Democrats.
