Speaker 1 (00:00):
Six thirty one and fifty five Kara Ceed Talk Station
EMPY Wednesday. Hope see you listener lunch today snows Lakeside Tavern.
And again, please pray for Joe Strucker. Had a medical
emergency yesterday, so he is not in and I'm hoping
for his speedy recovery. And I'm pleased to hear from
Alex Charantefilo, head of the High Republican Party. And congratulations
Alex Trantefilo sixty one to thirty nine yesterday for State
(00:21):
Central Committee, besting Kurt Hartman. And Alex. Good to have
you back on the show.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
It's been a while, sir, Brian. Good to be with you.
And I got to tell you I'm sorry to hear
about our friend Joe. I just just pick it up
on that so we'll keep a good thought for Joe Strucker.
But thanks for having me on, Brian.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
I love talking with you. I appreciate you your willingness
to speak with me in the listening audience here this morning.
Your reaction just generally speaking to yesterday's primary results, I
turn out. Some were saying turnout was really high since
we got basically twenty percent of the voters to actually
show up. Although I still view that as pathetic, Alex,
but it is what it is, and your your reactions
to some of the races, any of them stand out.
(00:57):
Viva Gramas on me obviously walked away with it eighty
two to seventeen percent for a rebake.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Yeah, you know, we feel very good, very bullish actually
at the Republican Party and Brian, Look, I'm realistic about
midterm elections. I know what the numbers are, I know
what the polling is. You know, we see these things routinely.
Midterms are generally a challenge for the party in power.
But the Sabany Ohio Republican Party this morning is very strong.
We did make an endorsement in the Vike Ramaswami race,
(01:25):
who joined with President Trump and doing so Vi Vike
really never had a real primary, let's just be honest
about that. So he won every single county last night,
want an overwhelming majority of the vote, you know, more
than eighty percent of the vote in his primary. And
you know, if you look at the numbers, we turned
out a bigger raw number of Republican voters last night
to the Democrats statewide, and so that's good news for us. Look,
(01:49):
We've got our work cutout for us in the fall.
It's to turn out our vote. That's our number one
challenge in twenty twenty six is to turn out a
massive number of Republican votes. And you know you've got
many strategies to do that from you know, the next
one hundred and eighty days. And I, you know, I
feel very good about it. And as it relates to
my race, I thank you for your kind words. Uh,
(02:09):
you know, we worked hard, and I'm glad to be
victorious in my state central race.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Well, and you know, I wish you all the best,
and I know you try to do your best to
represent well. And sometimes, Alex, I gotta be honest with you.
I feel like I want to apologize for you, because
quite often you personally will get some criticism from various
listeners who call in and chime in on the topic,
and I have to step back and say, listen, you
know what I know about Alex and how he has
(02:33):
to run his job or kind of two different things.
But he can't be critical of Republicans. It's sort of
like it's a line that you can't cross. Yes, there
are various factions within the Republican Party. Some people call
them rhinos and others call them yeah whatever, But it's
your Republican party and you have to deal with all
facets within the umbrella of Republican I imagine you find
(02:55):
that job to be challenging from time to time.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Alex. Look, I've been a party chairman for a long time,
first at the county level and then at the state
and I know that job as well as anybody, and
dare I say it immodestly, as well as anybody in
the country. I've just been a chairman. The chairman takes grief, Brian.
It just comes with the job. I mean, you know,
on any given day, people will call in and suggest
(03:18):
that we've sold out the party to Donald Trump, and
we're you know, we're we've walked away from the principles
of the Republican Party. The next call will come in
and it will suggest that we're a bunch of rhinos.
I mean, you get it from both sides, you get
it from all camps. That's just part of leadership. For
me personally, I'm not deterred by any of that. I
love the Republican movement, I love the conservative movement. I'm
(03:39):
motivated to do this, not believe me, not out of
any personal gain, but primarily out of a love of
my country, and I believe that the conservative principles of
the Republican Party are actively saving the country. I'll work
with anybody that wants to work with me, but too
many people, frankly, don't understand ultimately with the Republican Party
(03:59):
as entity Briant is about. If you look at the
Ohio Republican Party long before I got there, but especially frankly,
during my three year tenure, We've had an incredible run
of victories. We're designed to win races. We've won. We've
beat Shared Brown, We've won the governor's race, every executive office.
We have supermajorities in the House, in the Senate, we
(04:20):
control six of seven of these Supreme Court races. So
we win. We win in Ohio at the Ohio Republican Party.
And that's what I'm here to do. I'm here to
help us win elections and use whatever skill and experience
that I have to help us do that. And I
look forward to doing that. We'll get past this primary
primaries are what they are. They're ugly sometimes, but the
(04:40):
adults in the political room, Brian, know that we have
to come together. Now. We have one hundred and eighty
days to push back on the socialist amy acting to
push back on this national move to win the United
States Senate. We've got an elect John huestaid, certainly vi
Vaik is going to be very well positioned to be
our next governor as a businessman and an ouse, really
(05:00):
a dream boat candidate if you're not really believe in
conservative principles and an outsider drain the swamp mentality, the
vike Romas Swami will bring that. So that's where we
are today, and we're pretty pleased about it.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
You sound like it, and I'm I feel equally enthused
here in Ohio. A little more concern on a national
level given the war and the gas price increase, But
I have a comment or two on that. Can I
hold you over where you spend a few more minutes
with my listeners and me after the break?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Absolutely great?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
It is six forty one. If you have case the
talk station right Thomas with Alex Trumppilo, head of the
Hamlet or head of the Hio Republican Party. Always want
to say Hamilton Kundy Republican Party, because that's what you
were for so long but that allows me to ask
a question. One of my listener friends had asked the question.
I had it on my list of things to ask you. Anyway,
I got to profess I was Alex. I was a
(05:49):
little disturbed at Hamilton County and all of the open
spots no Republican judicial candidates on the primary. I mean,
just if you held your hand up and say I
will run for as a Republican, it was going to
be unopposed at least had a chance to go into
November and try. People have thrown in the towel. Is
this a growing phenomenon or is this just Hamilton County?
What do you see around the state and why won't
(06:11):
Republicans run in these races?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yeah, so you're correct. It's been three years since I
left that job ran as you know. But listen, I
know it just from osposis and the things that pick up,
and you know, I still still have a house here
in Cincinnati and stuff. Anyway, all I have to tell
you that it's hard, and Brian, you're a uniquely a
position to understand this as a lawyer in your own right.
If you're practicing law and things are coming along well,
and you know you have a good, thriving practice. To
(06:38):
step away and run in a race that feels unwinnable
is a real challenge, and it's hard to have your
partners support that. It's hard to have your clients understand
that you're not with them, you know, all the time
when you're campaigning, and those kind of things really make
it harder. And you know, again, Brian, I've been around
long enough to remember when we is Republicans won everything
(07:02):
in Hamilton County my first frankly ten years as the
county chairman. You know, we did things like win back
the county commissioners and the Democrats, et cetera. Democrats had
the exact same problem. We would have judicial candidates unopposed.
So there's a myth out there, Brian that maybe if
people are listening to actually accept my response here, but
that the party can simply walk in, tap you and
(07:24):
make you run for office. That's just not right. That's
not the way it works. And to get good qualified
attorneys to run for these judicial spots when they have
a healthy practice and an otherwise of good life, when
they know that, you know, this county now is one
of three or four in the state. That's pretty decidedly blue.
It's hard to get people to do it. I think
(07:45):
that's ultimately the answer. And while people may see that
as a failure of the County Republican Party. You can
do a lot of cajoling and arm twisting, and but
you have to have people step up and actually agree
to run. And that's the challenge, Brian, is that people
just look at that race and they know it's a
challenge for them, especially in the general election, so that
they don't want to put themselves out there and you know,
(08:07):
hurt their law practice and take time away from their family.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I get all that, and I understand it. Now assume
you can find someone to run. Is it not possible?
And there's a predicate for this question, because it sounds absurd.
Is it not possible that Democrats might vote for a
tough on crime Republican endorsed judge, because here in Hamilton
County we got a real problem with crime and a
lot of it goes over to the prosecutor's office as
well as the bench, which is very liberal. It's comprised
(08:34):
with a bunch of left leaning judges who want to
do whatever they believe to be criminal justice reform, which
basically lets people out that have committed heinous crimes. You know,
no bond. We've got people that are recidivous to keep
getting let out. It's a revolving door of justice. I
can see a Democrat going, you know what, no, Moss,
I will not vote for one of these left leaning,
woke judges anymore. Give me a heart on crime Republican
(08:54):
because my neighborhood's going to hell in a handbasket. So
that's possible. But if there's no one there to get
them the option to Democrats, then they're stuck with the
left leaning judge that they that they or that they
ran for office now pivoting over you mentioned. Voter turnout
in November is going to be critical here in Ohio
for a lot of reasons. Let's look at the war.
(09:15):
Gasoline prices have gone through the roof, and I struggle
with the idea that gasoline prices are somehow going to
cause a Republican to vote for some crazy loon, left
wing socialist candidate because they're individually pissed off about the
price of gas. Would I give up my values because
the price has gone up on something and vote for
someone who represents the antithesis of everything. I believe, no way,
(09:38):
and I can't believe that people would actually do that.
But that's the suggestion Democrats are going to get a
bunch of seats in Congress because well, Donald Trump, evil
Orange man. Doesn't this come down to voter turnout? Alex?
Will the Democrats actually win in November if the Republicans
show up in large numbers?
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah? He answered, that's the final question there is yes.
And this is the challenge of really across the country.
For us in Ohio, it's easy in twenty twenty four,
we want everything with a Donald Trump style turnout in Ohio.
We just have to do the very same thing here,
and that is to remind people about what the stakes
are in the race like this. You know, look, the
(10:18):
Democrats are impeachment crazy. They will try to impeach President
Trump if they have a chance. They did it last
time they were in power. They did a couple three times.
So we have to point out the stakes. You know,
on gas prices, I actually am confident. If you look
this morning breaking news here in the Wall Street Journal,
the oil prices plunged overnight. Their talk of diplomacy, oil
(10:39):
prices are going to go up and down. I feel
like the gas prices will level off and come down
and look they were. Yeah. So anyway, the answer is
we have to turn out our votes. We have to
remind people. I want to can what you just said
about principles brought in how important they are, but you
go to vote and to not abandon those principles. Because
the price and gas went up because Donald Trump finally
(11:01):
had the guts I'm not going to use the other
word I want to use there. Yeah, but he had
the guts to take on the Iranian nuclear challenge. And
we've had president after president talk about it. One president
finally said I've got to act. Yeah, so we're paying
small price at the at the pump, yes, but ultimately
those people cannot have a nuclear weapon. The President's been
clear about that. So you know, I hope that resolved.
(11:22):
I think it will. I think it will by Midsummer.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Well, and you know, the Republicans are on the side,
on the right side of so many eighty twenty issues,
you know, But that's how Donald Trump got elected. He
was on the right side of all these important issues,
including issues that are important to Democrats who was on
the right side because a lot of Democrats feel the
same way that you know Republicans do in so far
as maybe border security and illegal immigration, the LGBTQ plus
plus plus plus argument. You know, we just go on
(11:47):
and on. It just blows my mind that these left,
these further and further Zorhan Mandami type democrats are getting
elected and that they can be they can best a challenger.
I live in a strange world. Going back to your point,
I too remember the day when Hamilton County was blood red.
The world's a different place, Alex, and we got to
do something to stop this title wave of leftism.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Well, I agree completely. And look that's what I wake
up thinking about every single day and what we're doing
here in Ohio. And I won't get into the nitty gritty,
but we have an incredible data set, Brian, that we
know who the people are who stay home. That's how
good the sort of political science is in the year
twenty twenty six. We know those people that we have
to talk to, so we intend to knock their doors,
(12:32):
send them a tech, deliver them mail, call them and
urge them to get out. And if you're listening today,
you're worried about a big Democrat wave a blue wave
here in November. You can help us. You can really
help us by making sure that you tell everybody in
your orbit to get out and vote. Make sure your
family's properly registered, and go on your social media, your Twitter,
(12:52):
your Facebook, your LinkedIn, whatever, and remind everyone that this
election cannot be one that we sit out. So if
we turn out a massive number of votes, we can
win and defy history. When I say define history, I
mean you know, we know that midterm is gonna be
tough at the party in power. So that's it. The
stakes are very high, Brian, very high.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Very high. But a note of optimism. I detected that
in your voice, Alex Charantapila. We will talk again soon,
I hope. Keep up the great work and congratulations on
the victory, and we'll see how things go as we
fast approach November, Alex, have a wonderful week and weekend.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Sir, God bless you. Brian. Thanks so much, and you.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Sir six forty nine fifty five KRC the talk station. Wow, Well,
get out and vote. What more can you say?

we have to turn out our votes. We have to
remind people. I want to can what you just said
about principles brought in how important they are, but you
go to vote and to not abandon those principles. Because
the price and gas went up because Donald Trump finally
(11:01):
had the guts I'm not going to use the other
word I want to use there. Yeah, but he had
the guts to take on the Iranian nuclear challenge. And
we've had president after president talk about it. One president
finally said I've got to act. Yeah, so we're paying
small price at the at the pump, yes, but ultimately
those people cannot have a nuclear weapon. The President's been
clear about that. So you know, I hope that resolved.
(11:22):
I think it will. I think it will by Midsummer.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Well, and you know, the Republicans are on the side,
on the right side of so many eighty twenty issues,
you know, But that's how Donald Trump got elected. He
was on the right side of all these important issues,
including issues that are important to Democrats who was on
the right side because a lot of Democrats feel the
same way that you know Republicans do in so far
as maybe border security and illegal immigration, the LGBTQ plus
plus plus plus argument. You know, we just go on
(11:47):
and on. It just blows my mind that these left,
these further and further Zorhan Mandami type democrats are getting
elected and that they can be they can best a challenger.
I live in a strange world. Going back to your point,
I too remember the day when Hamilton County was blood red.
The world's a different place, Alex, and we got to
do something to stop this title wave of leftism.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Well, I agree completely. And look that's what I wake
up thinking about every single day and what we're doing
here in Ohio. And I won't get into the nitty gritty,
but we have an incredible data set, Brian, that we
know who the people are who stay home. That's how
good the sort of political science is in the year
twenty twenty six. We know those people that we have
to talk to, so we intend to knock their doors,
(12:32):
send them a tech, deliver them mail, call them and
urge them to get out. And if you're listening today,
you're worried about a big Democrat wave a blue wave
here in November. You can help us. You can really
help us by making sure that you tell everybody in
your orbit to get out and vote. Make sure your
family's properly registered, and go on your social media, your Twitter,
(12:52):
your Facebook, your LinkedIn, whatever, and remind everyone that this
election cannot be one that we sit out. So if
we turn out a massive number of votes, we can
win and defy history. When I say define history, I
mean you know, we know that midterm is gonna be
tough at the party in power. So that's it. The
stakes are very high, Brian, very high.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Very high. But a note of optimism. I detected that
in your voice, Alex Charantapila. We will talk again soon,
I hope. Keep up the great work and congratulations on
the victory, and we'll see how things go as we
fast approach November, Alex, have a wonderful week and weekend.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Sir, God bless you. Brian. Thanks so much, and you.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Sir six forty nine fifty five KRC the talk station. Wow, Well,
get out and vote. What more can you say?

Bleep! with Ana Navarro
Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
