It's another busy week on
0:07
the Mike Gallagher show and our
0:10
week in review podcast welcome aboard
0:12
apparently in Minnesota it is absolutely
0:14
fine to vandalize cars as long
0:16
as they're Tesla's plus Steven Moore
0:18
stops by to go over Trump's
0:20
tariff policy but first we got
0:23
to start with a huge story
0:25
this week the push to give
0:27
suspected MS -13 gang member Or, as
0:29
the Democrats call him, Maryland man,
0:31
Kilmar Abrego Garcia, due
0:33
process. Check
0:36
out Dana Bash asking
0:38
Van Hollen yesterday repeatedly.
0:41
I mean, repeatedly. Is
0:44
Abrego Garcia an MS
0:46
-13 gang member or
0:48
not? Pay very
0:50
close attention to Chris
0:52
Van Hollen's answer. More
0:55
specifically, his non -answer.
0:58
Can you say with absolute certainty that he
1:00
is not, nor has he ever been a
1:02
member of the MS -13 gang? And did
1:04
you ask him point blank? Well,
1:08
Dana, what Donald Trump is trying
1:10
to do here is change the
1:12
subject. The subject at hand is
1:14
that he and - Stop it,
1:17
stop it right there. Stop it
1:19
right there. Isn't that amazing? He's
1:21
on CNN and now he's shocked.
1:23
He's like, uh -oh, uh -oh. Dana,
1:26
who I thought was on my
1:28
side, is asking me a
1:30
trick question. And I
1:32
love that when a politician is
1:34
asked, what did you have for
1:36
breakfast this morning? Well, you
1:38
know, my car is green. I
1:41
mean, that answer, that's not
1:43
edited. That's in real time. This
1:46
is unedited. Play it again from the
1:48
beginning, Christian. She just asks a
1:50
question that, and good for her.
1:53
I'm not a big Dan Abash fan, but
1:55
good for her. Is he a
1:57
gang member or not? Listen to the
1:59
guy's answer. Can you say
2:01
with absolute certainty that he is not,
2:03
nor has he ever been a member of
2:05
the MS -13 gang? And did you ask
2:07
him point blank? Well,
2:11
Dana, what Donald Trump is trying
2:13
to do here is change the
2:15
subject, the subject at hand. is
2:18
that he and his administration are
2:20
defying a court order to give
2:22
a Brego Garcia his due process
2:24
rights. They are trying to litigate
2:26
on social media what they should
2:28
be doing in the courts. They
2:30
need to put up or shut
2:32
up in the courts. Let me
2:34
tell you, I decided to write
2:36
this down so I could be
2:38
absolutely accurate as to what federal
2:40
district court judge Zinnis said about
2:42
these allegations by the Trump administration.
2:45
Quote, no evidence It's linking
2:47
Abrego Garcia to MS -13 or
2:49
any terrorist activity has been
2:51
presented to the court. That's
2:54
where to litigate this. It's
2:56
been litigated in many other places. So
2:58
I'm not going to get into the
3:00
details because the whole purpose of our
3:02
court system is for them to adjudicate
3:04
these things, not for Donald Trump to
3:06
go off on social media. Can
3:11
you confirm or deny that
3:13
he's a gang member? And
3:15
did you ask him? Well,
3:17
what President Trump wants to
3:19
do? And
3:21
I don't think the guy
3:23
even recognizes what a
3:25
fool he sounds like. These
3:28
are not serious people. You know,
3:30
I say this over and over
3:32
again. These are not serious people.
3:35
Now, look, people of good faith can disagree. There's,
3:38
you know, a very
3:40
popular podcaster named Joe
3:43
Rogan who Absolutely
3:45
is all in for due
3:47
process for this gang member.
3:49
I don't know why Joe
3:51
Rogan believes that we should
3:53
give constitutional rights to somebody
3:55
who snuck into the country
3:57
and doesn't belong here. Who's
3:59
a criminal? Who's a gang
4:01
member? Who is by definition?
4:03
A terrorist who else Salvador's
4:05
president says no, no, we're
4:07
going to keep this guy
4:09
incarcerated. But here was Joe
4:11
Rogan. I'm a big believer
4:13
in people of good faith
4:15
having good faith debate, not
4:17
just name calling and not
4:19
just back and forth. Here's
4:21
Joe Rogan on his podcast.
4:24
If you wanted to, like, destroy society and
4:26
make it worse, what would you do? You
4:28
bring people in from a third world country,
4:30
don't have them change anything, financially incentivize them
4:32
to be there, give them free money while
4:35
you're not helping the poor people in America.
4:37
They would give them debit cards, free housing,
4:39
free food, putting them up in
4:41
the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City.
4:43
Why, yo? If you wanted to destroy
4:45
society, that's how you would do it.
4:47
That's how you would do it. I
4:49
mean, that sounds like it's working. Like
4:51
it's going in that direction. So the
4:53
problem with things that are going in
4:55
a radical direction and then there's an
4:57
overcorrection. So the overcorrection is lack of
4:59
due process. The overcorrection is
5:01
like round them all up, ship them
5:03
to jail. Like that's like some
5:05
things that you say when you're not
5:07
thinking things through. Like, what do you do
5:09
about all the criminals? Take them all
5:11
and send them to El Salvador. Yeah. What
5:13
about due process? No, but here's the
5:15
problem. What if you
5:17
are an enemy of, let's not
5:20
say any current president, let's pretend
5:22
we got a new president, totally
5:24
new guy in 2028 and this
5:26
is a common practice now of
5:28
just rounding up gang members with
5:30
no due process and shipping them
5:32
to El Salvador. You're
5:34
a gang member. No, I'm not. Prove it. What?
5:37
I want to go to court. No, no due
5:39
process. That's
5:41
dangerous, Joe. That's dangerous. That's
5:43
dangerous. That's dangerous. We've
5:46
got to be careful that we
5:48
don't become monsters while we're fighting monsters.
5:51
Now, here's the problem with Joe Rogan's
5:53
argument. It's a straw man argument. The
5:55
hypothetical he puts up is an apples
5:57
to apples. Joe Biden opened
5:59
the floodgates and the Democrats had
6:01
opened borders for years. We
6:03
have millions of people, many of
6:05
whom are committing horrible crimes
6:08
against American citizens. So
6:10
there's no question it's a challenge. Joe
6:13
Rogan hasn't thought through
6:16
how difficult it's going
6:18
to be to try
6:20
to track down every
6:22
illegal, including gang
6:24
members, and provide them
6:26
with trials and appeals
6:29
and hearings in the
6:31
United States court system
6:33
after the Democrats and
6:35
Biden inundated America with
6:37
millions and millions of
6:40
illegals. So, look, we
6:42
always knew this was going to be a
6:44
hassle. We always knew how hard it was going
6:46
to be. And I
6:48
don't mind presenting both sides of an issue. Frankly,
6:51
if it's between Joe Rogan
6:53
and Senator Chris Van Hollen
6:55
or the Trump administration, I'm
6:58
with the Trump administration. If it's between
7:00
Joe Rogan and Tom Holman, I'm
7:02
with Tom Holman. Not
7:07
only does the radical left
7:09
want foreign criminals free in our
7:11
country, they want domestic criminals
7:13
to roam free too. Colonel Kurt
7:15
Schlichter from townhall .com joined us
7:17
to discuss the latest in
7:19
Tesla terrorism. I gotta
7:21
tackle what I think is the biggest
7:23
story that won't be covered in the mainstream
7:25
media of the week, and it's right
7:27
up your alley. I'm reading The
7:29
Washington Times this morning. The
7:32
Soros prosecutor in
7:34
Minneapolis has made the
7:36
Solomon -like decision not
7:38
to criminally charge
7:40
the jerk who the
7:42
police say committed
7:45
over $20 ,000 of
7:47
damage to people's Teslas.
7:49
It turns out he's a state employee in Minnesota, works
7:52
for Waltz. He's going
7:54
around keying a bunch of
7:57
Teslas, over 20 grand
7:59
worth of damages as he's
8:01
walking his dumb dog. Kurt,
8:04
the prosecutor said, we don't
8:06
want to charge him criminally. That
8:08
could impact his job and his
8:10
reputation. We're going to put him
8:12
in diversion. We're going
8:14
to hold him financially responsible, but we're
8:17
not going to give him any
8:19
criminal charges because, after all, that's what
8:21
we do here in Minnesota. We're
8:23
Minnesota nice. Kurt, if that
8:25
doesn't sum up the state
8:27
of today's Democrat activist radical
8:29
lunatic party, nothing does. Well,
8:31
look, not that I want to
8:33
defend Minnesota, but I
8:35
think that may be the same thing
8:38
they do with all crimes. In other
8:40
words, I think they may be treating
8:42
him just like they treat all criminals, which
8:44
is that they let everybody off.
8:48
You know, so maybe we finally
8:50
found one example where there's
8:52
not a two -tier justice system.
8:55
I don't know. I don't know
8:57
what the Minnesota prosecutor does.
8:59
I do know that we have
9:01
a Department of Justice and
9:03
I do know it is a
9:05
federal crime to violate somebody's
9:08
civil rights. And I've seen crazier
9:10
filings of the Department of
9:12
Justice, mostly against conservatives. But
9:15
look, if somebody's
9:17
going around systematically causing
9:20
damage, sabotage, you
9:22
could call it vandalism,
9:25
to people's property because
9:27
of their politics, I
9:29
think there are federal laws that
9:32
may be impacted because they're obviously
9:34
doing it to gain a political
9:36
effect. And I think this is
9:38
exact. And I do think this
9:40
is exactly the kind of case.
9:43
where if you want to clamp
9:45
down on political violence, when
9:47
we seem to have a problem
9:49
with that, just ask
9:51
the United Health Care guy, a
9:54
way you can't, because they
9:56
murdered him, or maybe ask
9:58
the president, who
10:00
was literally shot and a
10:02
couple of other people
10:04
wounded and one killed. If
10:07
we want to clamp down on
10:09
and I think we need to clamp
10:11
down on it, this would be
10:13
something where federal action might be a
10:15
good idea, and it's not unprecedented. The
10:18
federal government came in and stepped
10:20
in in southern states, where Democrats
10:22
in power there, and they were
10:25
Democrats, refused to charge
10:27
white terrorists with attacking
10:29
black civil rights workers, so
10:31
the feds went and
10:33
did it. And I
10:35
think it's important to Establish
10:39
that this is unacceptable and
10:41
they're accepting it and You
10:43
know, I think they're I
10:45
don't think this kind of
10:47
crime can be treated like
10:49
every other crime Okay, so
10:51
if you have some guy
10:53
who's just out keying random
10:55
cars because he's a jerk
10:57
I think that is a
10:59
measurably different situation that goes
11:01
out randomly keying well not
11:03
randomly keying cars but doing
11:05
it to intimidate
11:07
people because of their
11:10
politics. Democrats
11:13
often live in an echo chamber
11:15
where their idiotic ideas are parroted
11:17
by one another. But what happens
11:19
when one Democrat lawmaker goes on
11:21
Fox News to argue for the
11:23
rights of illegal aliens? Well, you're
11:25
about to find out. Democrats
11:28
divided over support
11:30
for the MS
11:32
-13 gang member. I
11:35
mean, this is like real world.
11:37
This is supposed to be real life.
11:40
Democrats are divided over whether or
11:42
not to back an MS -13 gang
11:44
member from El Salvador. There's a debate
11:46
about that, don't you know? Anybody
11:48
debating the status of
11:51
the MS -13 gang member
11:53
within the Republican Party? Do
11:55
we have any Republicans pushing
11:57
back against deporting illegals who
12:00
are gang members? Is
12:02
this really a heavy lift? Is
12:05
it hard to
12:07
say it's a good
12:09
idea to kick
12:11
illegal immigrants who are
12:13
violent, dangerous gang
12:15
members out of the
12:18
country? Due
12:21
process, due
12:23
process. Laura
12:26
Ingram battled Congresswoman Yasmin
12:28
Ansari, who's a Democrat
12:30
from Arizona last night.
12:32
on Fox News channel.
12:35
This was fairly amusing to
12:37
watch. Every American
12:39
should be concerned about this.
12:42
wait. Congresswoman, I know you can't
12:44
mean that, and I'm not trying
12:47
to play gotcha here. I know
12:49
you don't mean that American citizens
12:51
are distractions. No,
12:54
victims aren't distractions. are changing the subject.
12:56
Today we are here to talk about
12:58
the lack of due process for an
13:00
individual who is illegally deported from this
13:02
country. That is the subject. But you
13:04
have any other act of violence. But
13:06
Congresswoman, I've given you just so everyone
13:08
understands. Well,
13:11
the violence committed by illegal immigrants
13:13
against innocent Americans and legal immigrants has
13:15
been appalling. It is devastating. Absolutely
13:17
appalling. And I wish there was one
13:19
moment where Democrats acted like they
13:21
cared about that. Right
13:25
now we
13:28
are worried about
13:30
the constitutional
13:32
crisis and the
13:34
lack of
13:36
this president following
13:39
the Supreme
13:41
Court. Hi,
13:45
everyone. Tom Mustin here for
13:48

13:58
significant compensation. For years, the weed
14:00
killer Roundup was used in

14:07
link between Roundup and this deadly
14:09
cancer. So if you or

Center may not be available in

all states. just,
14:52
you know, I'm not trying to talk over you.
14:54
I'm actually trying to get a question answered. I asked
14:56
you a simple question. What
14:58
process is do Mr. Abrego Garcia
15:00
in the United States that
15:02
you believe he has not received
15:04
or could receive if he's
15:06
undeported, which is the Democrats' priority,
15:08
undeport him, bring him back
15:10
here? What process do you want
15:12
him to receive that would
15:14
make you happy and feel good?
15:16
Could he ever be deported? It's
15:19
very clear the Supreme Court says
15:21
return him and in court we
15:23
can have a discussion about what
15:25
action should be taken. Laura,
15:28
this administration admitted they
15:30
made a mistake. This administration
15:32
admitted that they made
15:34
a mistake in supporting Mr.
15:37
Garcia. This is
15:39
a fact, Laura. Unfortunately, you're
15:41
not sticking to the fact of the case,
15:43
which is that Donald Trump admitted that
15:45
he made a mistake. I've been very clear
15:47
on the facts. Yeah, well, Congresswoman, if
15:49
you want to come on the show, we'd love to
15:51
have you back. believe in the Supreme Court. But
15:53
you don't, all right, but if
15:55
he's, I will just say this on the
15:58
show and you can come back. Just wait,
16:00
take a breath. If he comes back, let's
16:02
say he is undeported, and the Democrats happy
16:04
about that. If he's undeported, he
16:06
will be deported from the United States. That
16:09
will make you miserable, correct?
16:11
That will set off a
16:13
whole new firestorm because what
16:15
you care about is an
16:17
illegal immigrant's rights to be
16:19
here at Infinitum. This
16:22
is a union member, person
16:24
with a US citizen. Wife,
16:26
this is a person who the Supreme
16:28
Court has said needs to be facilitated
16:30
back to the United States. That's a
16:32
fact. We got it. We got it.
16:34
You will never support the deportation of
16:36
this individual. That is the truth. I
16:39
mean, she does ask,
16:41
Laura asks a really intriguing
16:43
question. If they bring
16:45
Kilmar back, who's become
16:47
this mother Teresa for
16:49
the Democrats, he's
16:52
this heroic saintly
16:54
figure. And look,
16:56
you know his story by
16:58
now with the wife beating
17:00
and the car full of... in
17:03
the trunk and everything else, the
17:05
MS -13 gang tattoos all over
17:07
his hands. If they bring him
17:09
back and then we kick him
17:11
out again, what are the Democrats
17:13
going to do then? I
17:16
stood in New York City
17:18
Saturday morning on Madison Avenue.
17:21
I've got the video to prove
17:23
it. You don't believe me? Christian,
17:25
play the video of the protest
17:27
that I saw on behalf of
17:30
illegal immigrants, thousands and thousands of
17:32
New Yorkers. I mean, it
17:34
was mostly older white people,
17:36
not a lot of black
17:38
people, very few people of
17:41
color, interestingly enough. But
17:43
if you're watching the Salem News
17:45
Channel right now, you see in
17:47
the sign, we are all Kilmar.
17:49
Great job, Christian, freeze framing that.
17:51
You see the sign right now
17:53
at Salem News Channel, snc
17:56
.tv. We are
17:58
all Kilmar.
18:01
And I wanted to stop the
18:03
lady. If I was half the man I
18:05
used to be, I would have gone up to her
18:07
and said, ah, lady, you
18:09
may be an MS -13 gang member
18:11
who beats his wife. I'm
18:13
not. We are
18:16
all Kilmar. Now,
18:18
that was a sign. One
18:21
of many like that, incidentally,
18:23
at this protest march in
18:25
New York City where thousands
18:27
and thousands of men,
18:29
women, children. They had upside
18:31
down flags. They had Kilmar
18:34
signs. They had signs for
18:36
every, you know, pet
18:38
peeve they've got against the
18:40
Trump administration. And look, I'm
18:42
going to tell you flat out, it was as
18:44
far as the eye could see. There's
18:47
a lot of people
18:49
right now who have
18:51
swallowed every drop of
18:53
the Kool -Aid. So
18:55
simple question for you.
18:58
What are they gonna do if they bring Kilmar
19:00
back and they deport him again? They're
19:02
gonna start it up
19:04
all over again Laura Ingram
19:06
is absolutely correct. They
19:08
don't care about Kilmar -Obrego
19:10
Garcia They don't care about
19:13
due process. It's because
19:15
if they cared about due
19:17
process that would have
19:19
come up post January 6th
19:21
all they care about
19:23
is keeping as many illegals
19:25
as possible in the
19:27
United States for as long
19:29
as possible. And
19:34
finally, while the left is
19:36
busy protecting illegals, President Trump
19:38
is busy protecting American citizens
19:40
and American businesses. Renowned
19:42
economist Stephen Moore joined the show this
19:44
week to talk about the impact
19:47
of Trump's tariffs and how they're already
19:49
working. Do
19:51
you see people in your circle sort
19:53
of coming around as you have to
19:55
the Trump way of doing things, or
19:57
is there still a kind of a
19:59
staunch resistance to the path that Trump
20:01
is trying to take? Well, I can
20:03
really only speak for myself, and you
20:05
know, I've been a doubting Thomas to
20:07
some of these policies, but... And, you
20:09
know, I have a very good personal
20:11
relationship with Donald Trump. I've advised him.
20:13
He always gets out of He says,
20:15
there's Steve Moore. He's a great economist,
20:17
but he doesn't agree with me on
20:19
terrorists. And I say, no, Mr. President,
20:21
I don't. But, you know, who am
20:23
I to doubt this guy? He's the
20:25
best negotiator I've ever met in my
20:27
life, Mike. And he
20:29
understands the heart of the deal.
20:32
And I think that the What we want
20:35
to see, I'm trying to figure
20:37
out kind of the overall strategy.
20:39
Trump holds his cards close to
20:41
his vest. But I think that
20:43
the idea here is to really
20:45
isolate the bad actor in the
20:47
economy, the new, what I call
20:49
the new evil empire, which is
20:51
China. And what Trump is
20:53
trying to do strategically, and you can tell
20:55
me if you agree or not. 100
21:00
% of this. But I think he wants
21:02
to unite the rest of the world against
21:04
China, the way we probably should have done
21:06
in the 1930s against Japan and Germany, and
21:08
force them to behave themselves. I mean,
21:10
Trump is right. They lie. They cheat. They
21:12
steal. They're building up their military in
21:14
a very aggressive, dangerous way. And
21:17
if we can do that, it's
21:19
both an economic and foreign policy
21:22
and national security triumph. Well, of
21:24
course, I agree with you because
21:26
I truly believe that I think
21:28
that what Trump wants to do
21:30
is make China more like Japan.
21:33
As you said, there's a
21:35
strategy here because, you
21:37
know, you hear his constant
21:39
refrain. These guys are taking
21:41
advantage of us. They're ripping America
21:44
off. These are all one -sided
21:46
deals. And Stephen, to be clear,
21:48
this tariff strategy is nothing new
21:51
for Donald Trump. He's been preaching
21:53
this for years and years. But
21:55
it feels like in 2025, now
21:57
it's Trump's tariffs on steroids. Yeah,
22:00
so here's the thing that noise
22:02
me about the Media coverage of all
22:04
this that even if you're somebody
22:07
who has doubts about Trump's terror strategy
22:09
I'm still a little queasy about
22:11
it as you can say tell Have
22:13
you noticed, like Jerome Powell and the
22:15
media, they never talk about all the
22:18
other amazing things Trump is doing, all
22:20
of which are extremely good for the
22:22
U .S. economy, producing more American energy,
22:24
unleashing our energy power. How about the
22:26
fact that he's got Doge that's identifying
22:28
hundreds of billions of dollars of waste
22:30
in our government? How about the fact
22:32
that he wants to do this big,
22:34
beautiful tax bill, which, you know, our
22:36
laffer and Leonard Cutlow and I wrote
22:38
the very first version of that back,
22:40
I don't know, eight years ago. what's
22:42
been a huge success. How
22:44
about the fact that he's gotten sick
22:46
in 90 days, he's gotten the
22:48
border entirely secure. Nobody talks about those
22:50
things that are so good for
22:52
the economy. And I find
22:55
that to be unfair and. unbalanced.
22:58
You know, I get I get sickened
23:00
at the way the media refuses to
23:02
ever lift up America because all under
23:04
the guise of opposing Donald Trump. You're
23:07
right. I mean, he lists all the
23:09
trillions of dollars that are being injected
23:11
into the United States economy. He went
23:13
through the list the other day of
23:15
Apple and you look at Tesla with
23:17
its brand new Starlink stuff in Texas
23:19
and all all these exciting things that
23:21
are happening. They never give him credit
23:23
for that ever, ever, ever. And you
23:25
know what? You know what else they
23:27
don't give him credit for is whether
23:29
you're a free trade guy like me
23:31
or more of a tariff guy like
23:33
Trump, what he is
23:35
saying is absolutely true, Mike.
23:38
These other countries have
23:40
tariffs much higher than we
23:42
do. And all he's saying
23:44
is let's have a level playing field. Think
23:46
about this, if he's able
23:49
to get all these other countries
23:51
to reduce their tariffs, then
23:53
Milton Friedman is probably rolling over
23:55
his grave in joy that
23:57
we've got lower tariffs all over
23:59
the world, and that will
24:01
lead to actually freer and fairer
24:03
trade. It will save American
24:05
jobs. We're the most competitive country
24:07
in the world. We have
24:09
the greatest entrepreneurs. We have the
24:11
greatest workers. We have the
24:13
greatest environment for growth. So we
24:15
will prosper under that kind
24:17
of environment that Trump is trying
24:20
to build. Visiting with Steven
24:22
Moore, of course, economist, author, senior
24:24
visiting fellow in economics at
24:26
the Heritage Foundation, author of many
24:28
books, including his latest, The
24:30
Trump Economic Miracle and the Plan
24:32
to Unleash Prosperity. Again, you
24:34
mentioned Jerome Powell, Steven. Let's talk
24:36
about President Trump's assertion that
24:38
he has no intention of firing
24:40
Jerome Powell. But Powell is
24:42
definitely standing up to Trump because
24:44
President Trump keeps asking, begging, pleading, demanding
24:46
that they lower interest rates, they
24:48
don't seem to be budging. So, you
24:50
know, it's interesting because, first of
24:52
all, when Jerome Powell made his comments,
24:54
what was that about a week
24:56
ago? I think it was exactly a
24:58
week ago on the economy. I
25:01
thought it was the most outrageous speech
25:03
I've heard from a Fed chairman in the
25:05
40 years I've been covering this. I've
25:07
been in this game a long time, Mike,
25:10
as you know. And the
25:12
Federal Reserve Chairman went out
25:14
and attacked the newly elected
25:16
president, attacked his policies in
25:18
extremely aggressive and partisan in
25:20
a way. By the way,
25:23
Mike, do you recall Jerome Powell ever giving
25:25
a talk like that one? Never,
25:30
never, never. It's like
25:32
he never did that. No,
25:34
no. Yeah, so my
25:36
point is that at that time, I wrote
25:38
in our hotline, I said, it's time to fire
25:40
this guy. But I have to say, I
25:42
changed my mind on that, not because I have
25:44
a high opinion of Powell. I think he's
25:46
been a disaster personally. He's the one who allowed
25:48
the inflation rate to go up to nearly
25:50
10 % annually when Biden was president. The reason
25:53
I did is, given the turmoil in the market,
25:55
I just think it would have been the
25:57
wrong time to do this. And I think Trump
25:59
has made the right decision. What's going to
26:01
happen? I'm going to tell you exactly what's going
26:03
to happen, Mike. One year
26:05
from now, when Jerome Powell's term is
26:07
up, he's gone. He's out of there.
26:09
Trump does not like Powell at all.
26:11
And I think he's to replace
26:13
him with somebody like an Arthur Laffer
26:16
or a Steve Forbes or maybe a
26:18
Kevin Ward, somebody who believes in growth,
26:20
believes in Trumponomics. And that
26:22
was the right decision to make. That'll
26:25
