Speaker 1 (00:00):
Maybe even happier and more special because welcome back to
the fifty five KCY Morning Show ahead of the Hire
Republican Party, Alex Trounce the field always enjoy having you
on the show.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Alex, welcome back.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Hi, good morning. Always good to be back.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
So, your job as the chair of the Ohio Republican
Party requires you to sit in front of a television
and watch the DNC, all of it back to back
to back, including staying up past eleven thirty on a
Monday night to watch Joe Biden.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Oh well, you make it sound awful and it is.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
So that's kind of my day.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
I mean I have, yeah, I have had to stay up.
And you know, I went to the Republican National Convention
in Milwaukee.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
World class experience. We had a great time.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
But I'm watching these Democrats and Brian you would never
know that they've been in power really for twelve of
the last sixteen years. You would never know that Kamala
Harris has had you know, a close proximity to power
for the last three and a half. And you know,
it's it's been an amazing experience for me, only in
a couple things, and I I do if you don't mind.

(01:07):
I'll just kind of launch into it. But the first
thing is that that you know, they've had power and
they've done nothing really to solve the main problems that
the American people face, things like inflation, for a southern border, crime,
you know, crime destroying our major cities. We're seeing all
these things continue under their guidance. And well, now the
second thing is, Brian, Yeah, real quick.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Before you interject your second point. What you just rattled off.
The problems that Americans are facing are problems that they
created themselves.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Defund the police. Whose brain child was that? Them? Inflation?
Whose brain child was that?

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Right there, Kamala Harris, because she was the deciding vote
on the most expensive pieces of legislation we've seen over
the past decade or so, the Inflation Reduction Act and
that Build Back Better Program, which injected trillions of dollars
into the economy on the heels of all the trillions
of dollars of COVID they got injected the economy. Guess
what they're the inflation that's their baby. I mean, go

(02:05):
up and down the list, regulatory environment, taking money away
from us and rerouting it. I mean, my god, if
the Democrats didn't exist as a party, and their ideas
and principles weren't enshrined in laws, we wouldn't be facing
the problems we're facing right now.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
Well, that's all one hundred percent the truth.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
And you know, the other thing that's happened in American politics,
there's been a real transformation in my even in my lifetime,
is that Democrats really now are the party of the elites.

Speaker 4 (02:32):
They're the party of Wall Street.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
They're the party of the sanctimonious professorial types.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
Nothing that they're talking about.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
They may they may give lip service to helping regular people,
but their policies just simply aren't that way. I mean,
we've seen again there's really this tectonic shift in American politics, Brian,
where you know, middle class, working class folks do not
at a home in the Democratic Party, a place that
you know, thirty years ago, even twenty years ago, you know,
Democrats tend to migrate. You're just we're seeing it here

(03:01):
in Ohio. I mean, Ohio is you know, a pretty
red state. We're not taking any for granted this year,
but I can tell you that, you know, Donald Trump
and Republicans have won this state over the last eight
or ten years because working classes. The Democrats have set
enough at this party, and you see it kind of
on display there as they continue to talk about these
ideas without real solutions for regular people. You've made a

(03:22):
great point. I mean, not only do they not solve
these problems, they've created them, there's no question.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Well, and apparently looking to double down on them. I mean,
I saw a report I guess it was this morning,
and now I already know Kamala Harris wants to raise
the corporate income tax significantly, which of course we have
to pay for since we buy the products and business
that there are products and services the corporations make, so
that's ridiculous. But also the taxing of unrealized gains. I mean,

(03:50):
that is the most economically insane thing that anybody could do,
and it would be economically ruinous for everyone here. The
stock market would crash. It's just it's bizarre, and they
get away with it. No one holds them accountable. No
one asks simple questions like have you walked through what
that might mean to the American people if you, you know,
if you put that policy in place. Nobody's asking any questions.

(04:12):
Kamala Harris is getting a free pass and is going
to hide in her basement, I think, as long as
humanly possible, so she doesn't have to face these types
of difficult questions.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
That that was kind of my second earlier.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Sorry say Brian that no, No, it's okay. You know,
the point here being that we're just at a moment
where there's been no scrutiny of this candidate of the
regular kind. I mean, first of all, her policy physicians,
she'll blurt out a thing here or there. She'll talk
about no tax on tips and ideas she stole from
Donald Trump. You know, you'll she'll blurt out a terrible
idea about price fixing that everybody reasonably.

Speaker 4 (04:47):
Knows would never work.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
But then there's no coherent plan. I mean, when Donald
Trump talks to you, he says, I'm going to go
to wall I'm going to fortify the southern border. That's
actual policy. He talks about tough crackdown on crime in
big cities. If you know anything about Donald Trump's history,
they know, Frank I read Bill Barr's book to know this.
But he actually put a focus at the Justice Department

(05:09):
on cleaning up these big cities and actually cracking down
on crimes and having a federal a federal response to
serious crime in big city. So there's plans in place
that Donald Trump's website has a prescription of twenty things
he will do for the American people. She has no
such prescriptions. And the worst part, Brian, the singular worst
part for me is that we have a media whose

(05:31):
job it is to educate the American people in an
objective fashion that simply will not do their job. Their
hatred of Donald Trump is such that they simply have
walked away from doing their job, and they spend all
summer long freaking out because Donald Trump took a big
lead on an incompetent Joe Biden, that now that they
have a chance to defeat Donald Trump again, the press

(05:52):
simply won't do its job. They will not they will
not look closely examined, closely Kamala Harris's record and b
press for hard and scrutinizer on her positions. That's just
a first really an American politics. And they were soft
in Obama. But they did ask a question at some
point of him. You know, they didn't ask him Biden
because they hated Trump. And now you got the same

(06:14):
problem happening here.

Speaker 4 (06:15):
It's just not a.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
Good time, first of all for the press, who's collapsed
as an institution in the United States. But the American
people aren't getting the information that they need to make
a critical decision.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Well, and I'll go back to the polls which reflect
across the board. The kitchen table issues that we're talking
about here, inflation, housing prices, the southern border all are
a product of well, the Biden administration or inherited problems
extended by the Biden administration from the Obama administration. Paused
for a moment, Let's bring Alex Trance to FELO back

Speaker 1 (08:31):
At seven forty Here fifty five kr C the talk
station Brian Thomas with Alex Charanta Fila, who happens to
be the Chairman of the High Republican Party. Here on
the fifty five KRC Morning Show, evaluating yesterday's DNC the
rolledout Michelle and Barack Obama talking about decency and how
we need to return a decency again, going back to
who's been in office for the last three and a
half years and who's been in office primarily of twelve

(08:54):
the last sixteen years, them and the whole decency thing.
We always fall into this angry, bitter argument back and
forth because of one well, very polarizing guy Trump. They
couldn't stay away from the word Trump, the man Trump,
and they haven't been able to stay away from in
spite of the fact he wasn't in elected office. The
last three and a half years, everything seems to always
be Donald Trump's fault. It's Trump derangement since syndrome alex

(09:18):
And they love to perpetuate and repeat the lies over
and over again that have been so thoroughly debunked it's
embarrassing to hear them repeat them. And yet there they
are on full display. I mean, I guess they all
take us for a bunch of idiots.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
Well, they've certainly done that. And again, you have an
adoring press that just simply doesn't push back on the lies.
You know, the one lie, which is there are good
people on both sides, which is attributed to Donald Trump.
It's one of the great lies in all of American politics,
and the press never pushes back on it. But listen,
I mean, you know, I said, I'm glad they're talking
about Donald Trump because it gives the American people, who

(09:55):
are smarter than the Democrats give him credit for a
chance to evaluate the question, are you better off now
than you were four years ago? Four years ago, you
didn't have two massive wars, one of them that's threatening
to blow up into world War three. Look at Iran
ends up in a hot war with Israel, and Syria
comes across the border, and Lebanon comes across the border.
I mean, the US already has an aircraft carrier approach there,

(10:18):
and we're going to defend our ally Israel. We're going
to find ourselves in a serious world war all because
President Biden is asleep at the switch, Kamala Harris as
his partner, and we're seeing this kind of this, this
thing happen all over the world. The Ukraine Russia conflict.
There's been no serious effort to solve that. I mean,
when Donald Trump was asked about that, he answers in
the right way. I want the killing to stop. That's

(10:41):
a fair answer that he's given the American people. So
you know, let's just compare. Are you better off now
than you were four years ago under the A four pension?
Donald Trump and the American people know the answer, and
that if things were far better, things cost less. You know,
we had the country was on the right track to
steal the southern border. You know, the economy was booming
and lifting up people from every demographic group. I mean,

(11:03):
the country was in far better shape. Donald Trump and
I have said it on your show more times than
ever because I love coming on, Brian. But the fact
of the matter is he's an unconventional politician. This guy
was not steeped and politically correct culture. He kind of
tells it like it is from his perspective. Is that
always perfect? Of course not.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
But the man cares about the United States of America.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
He cares about your bottom line, he cares about your family,
and he wants to do better things for the United States.
And people will say it's about him, just aren't paying attention.
The man has made a billion dollars, he's got a
great family, he's got properties to play golf anywhere in
the world that he wants to do. This is a
man who could sail off to the sunset. He's choosing
not to. He took a bullet really for the country.

(11:45):
So you know, look, I mean, let him talk about
Donald Trump, Brian. It's the way I look at it.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Well, that's good because any press is good press to
you come right down to it, and that's what the
old adage is. Anyhow, And I'm glad you brought up
the war situation we seem to be facing right now.
Global conflicts generally speaking. Honestly, Alex, I am completely devoid
of any information about where Kamala Harris is on foreign

(12:09):
policy generally speaking, I have no idea. Do we have
any idea in which direction she's going to take our country?
I mean, we are at a perilous position right now.
It's like we've got proxy wars going all on on
all over the place. We got a woke military that
they're shoving woke ideology down would be soldier's throats rather than,
you know, teaching them how to kill people and break things.
The numbers recruiting are down, and they have been now

(12:32):
for years. I mean, this is kind of like a
defund the police movement behind the scenes, and I'd like
to know where she's standing on that.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
Have you? Do you have any idea where she is
on foreign policy?

Speaker 4 (12:43):
No, and neither of the American people.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
And again, I know I'm picking on our press today
only because I feel very strongly about the press not
doing its job as it relates to Kamala Harris. Yeah,
they're giving her a total pass, a pass to the presidency. No,
I don't have a first clues to where she stands
and if her policies are like Joe Biden's. I mean, again,
let's evaluate how well those have worked for the American people.
Not well at all. The first foreign policy though Briant

(13:05):
is a poorest southern border.

Speaker 4 (13:07):
Whether or not we allow.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
A foreign country to pour its citizens into our country
without any controls, that's the first failure. And we know
that because she was the borders are and despite the
fact that they keep wanting to deny it, her first
and most major failure as vice president was on failing
to control the southern border. So she's terrible on foreign policy.

(13:29):
She barely doesn't have to speak for me to know that.
But you know, look, I mean, the media has not
scrutinized her foreign policy positions.

Speaker 4 (13:35):
You make an excellent point.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Well, and you know, put yourself in the position of
Kim Jong un or Jijinping or any of like Vladimir Putin.
Who would you rather be facing in a global conflict?
Donald Trump or Kamala Harris. It's a rhetorical question. I appreciate, Alex,
but Lord Almighty, the American people really truly need to
think about that, because I am thoroughly I'm worried, literally

(14:00):
worried about.

Speaker 3 (14:01):
That well as am I and you know we've you know, Brian,
it used to be we would have debates about who
was the most qualified to be president, right, I mean
when George H. W.

Speaker 4 (14:14):
Bush. Not to take people back too far, but.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
You know when the first president Bush was running for reelection,
you know, they had to go find a governor, a
guy with experience as governor. You know, Bill Clinton had
been a three term governor, been governor, lost, came back
second term governor in Arkansas. So we had this debate
about experience. Right. We don't do that anymore. We abandoned
experience when it came to Obama. Now, Donald Trump had

(14:37):
serious business and international business experience, so he brought them experience.
Barack Obama was, you know, two years a senator coming
off being a community organizer, and the American people, you know,
the Democrats especially and their friends and the press were
in all of that. We're kind of repeating that same
mistake here with someone who just has not demonstrated you know,
the knowledge, the fortitude, the strength to lead the time

(15:00):
in Kamala Harris. So it's perilous. I mean, it really is.
And American people need to wake up and your listeners.
By the way, you don't count on Donald Trump automatically
winning in Ohio and anywhere else.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
You have to be sure you.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Vote, get five other people to vote, and take this
very seriously, because the press is fawning all over her.
And there are segments of the American population that they
don't care about qualifications. They simply care that, you know,
they feel good about a choice. And Kamala Harris is
exactly wrong for the country and it's going to take
us in the wrong direction. It's got to be a
vote for Donald Trump, even even if you don't love

(15:32):
his tweets.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Well, that's true, and I'd be remissing my obligations if
I didn't ask you about a one particular Ohio race,
and of course that's the Bernie Marino shared Brown race.
You find it particularly interesting that shar didn't bother showing
up to the DNC in spite of the fact that
he's only missed I think one over his entire political
career and other and also that he's distancing himself from
Kamala Harris. Isn't that interesting?

Speaker 3 (15:54):
Alex Chiantifilo, Well, we've had a field day with that
at the Ohio Republican Party. We've we've got flyers up
in Chicago and missing poster flyers with.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
Sharon Brown's picture on them.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Who We've had really a good time with this look
that what's you know, What's what's not funny about it, Brian,
is that he is trying to hide his record from
the American people. When you think of Shared Brown, you
should think of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris because he
has voted with the ninety eight point five percent of
the time. The crushing inflation you talked about that the
Democrats put into place, Sared Brown was a vote for that.

(16:28):
You know, he said that the poorest southern border was
just something that you know, right wingers talked about that
it's not really a problem for Ohio. Go to Springfield, Ohio,
Go to places like Clark County.

Speaker 4 (16:38):
I've been there.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Go to other places around Ohio where their sanctuary cities are.
These migrants are flowing in to the state of Ohio
and changing, you know, communities and cultures. Again, we love immigrants.
Brian actually had.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
This million times too.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
I'm the child of two legal immigrants. I love immigration.
It worked well for my family and millions of other
American families, but do it legally.

Speaker 4 (16:59):
So you know, we've got these continued issues.

Speaker 3 (17:01):
And Shared Brown is a serious part of the problem.
He's not in the mainstream, so of course he's running
away from the Democratic Convention because he doesn't want Ohioans
to know. He's actually a Democrats hugely supportive of Shared Brown,
of Joe Biden and of Kamala Harris. He's a far
left Democrat. He's not Joe Manson. This is an Elizabeth
Warren far left Democrat and he's been full in Ohiolands

(17:23):
for too long. But I think his numbers up this year.
We feel very good about Bernie Marino. He's running a
very strong campaign. You're going to see our TV ads
are flowing now pretty heavily, and we're going to We're
going to ride this out with a very very strong
campaign to define Shared Brown. Well.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Bernie Reino, I haven't seen much of him lately, and
he handman on the fifty five KERC Morning Show in
quite some time. He's got an open slot here if
he wants to talk about his platform and his campaign
and why he's better than Shared Brown. I welcome that opportunity,
and I know my listeners will love hearing from him,
So the extent you can put a bug in his
ear on that one, Alex Junta Filo, please do and
we'll do anything we can to help him get elected,
because we know how bad Shared Brown is for the
state of ohioland for the country. Head of the hamlet

(18:01):
or the he we keep on this refer to you
