He’s the happy conservative warrior. From the Relief Factor studios, here’s Mike Geller.
SPEAKER 03 :
When Trump won on November 5th, we knew things were going to go well. Did you ever expect that they could be going this well? I could just play two clips from last night and call it a day. Sums up everything. I could just play two clips. and just sit back and open up the phones. There were two moments last night at Trump’s address to the joint session of Congress that sums up the mood of America, the attitude of the American people, the anticipation of great things to come. Two things. I mean, first of all, of course, was the opening line, cut one, right out of the gate when President Trump got to the podium last night in the well of Congress.
SPEAKER 06 :
And to my fellow citizens, America is back.
SPEAKER 03 :
You better believe it. In fact, we jumped right on that. You can order your own America is back T-shirts, coffee mugs, bumper stickers. at mikeonline.com, the Mike Gallagher store. We turned these around quickly. Last night we said, look, people want to express that feeling of satisfaction that America is back. And if you want to express it by wearing an America is back T-shirt or you want to slap a – it’s not an actual bumper sticker. It’s one of those magnets, car magnets. There’s coffee mugs. What a great gift. America is back. Those are available for sale right now at MikeOnline.com. MikeOnline.com, the Mike Gallagher Show store. Then the other clip, number 17, this is the same spirit. It was maybe the best night of the best line of the night, a night that just had a – it was a home run from the second he walked in, and everything went perfectly for him. He set the Democrats up perfectly. He actually said, I could cure cancer and they won’t stand and clap. Look at them all sitting there. And then when he brought up a beautiful moment and gave a little 13-year-old boy who’s a cancer patient his dream of becoming an honorary Secret Service agent, they couldn’t clap for that. They didn’t stand up for the little cancer patient. And Trump said that early in the night. He said, I could cure cancer. I wouldn’t even stand for that. And there are, gosh, so many moments. Think about my buddy, Seb Gorka. I was thinking about Dr. G last night when Trump announced… When Trump announced the Abbey Gate killer was apprehended, you want to know who was in the middle of all that? Guy right now tasked with counterterrorism? Our good friend and colleague, Sebastian Gorka. And as I understand it, he was at the airport in the middle of the night, 3 a.m., When the Abbey Gate murderer was taken into custody. We’re going to talk to Seb Gorka on the Mike Gallagher show. Stay tuned for that. So, but here was the other, I mean, what a night. Look, I’m giddy. I’m bouncing off the walls. And there’s nothing anybody can say. I don’t care what kind of Trump hater you are. You’re on the wrong side of this. Have you seen the CBS YouGov poll? It’s like 78% of people who watch the speech approved of the speech. Let me get the number here. I want to make sure I get it right. I don’t want to be accused of hyperbole. This CBS YouGov poll makes the… And they’re not going to widely report on this. You won’t see this on the front page of the New York Times. Check this out. What did I do with it? Holy crap, I can’t find it now. This is unbelievable. That’s like 70… Here it is. The CBS… This is CBS. Not Town Hall. Not Red State. CBS. Views of Trump’s speech among speech watchers. 76% of people who watched the speech approved of the speech. Only 23% disapproved. And here was the classic line of the night. This is coming from a guy, a president, who is a showman, who is a communicator. I know we always have called the great Ronald Reagan the great communicator. I don’t mean to disrespect the Gipper, but… Donald Trump runs circles around President Reagan in terms of delivering a message. Nobody knows how to deliver a message, a punchline, a narrative better than the 45th and 47th president of the United States. For me, here was the best line of the night.
SPEAKER 06 :
The media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation. We must have legislation to secure the border. But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president.
SPEAKER 03 :
I mean, my word. Welcome in. We got a lot to take. And of course, the only talking head I care about is you. Yeah, we’re going to bring Seb Gorka on if he has some time to talk about the apprehension of the Abbey Gate murderer. Yes, we’ll play all the right clips, but I want your voice front and center because I’m in such a spectacular mood. Started out, hey, I admit, my week has been a little rocky.

SPEAKER 06 :
And to my fellow citizens, America is back.
SPEAKER 03 :
You know, I’m an emotional guy, and I plead guilty to that. And when I saw Seb Gorka at the White House a week or so ago, a guy that I’ve known for years, he and I took a group of listeners last summer to Alaska. We’re going back to Alaska, albeit without Dr. G. Larry Elder and I will be your co-hosts for the Patriots Alaska cruise this August. But I happen to admire this guy deeply, and I have for many, many years. We were saddened when Seb left Salem to join the White House. He’s deputy assistant to the president, senior director for counterterrorism at the National Security Council. Last night, President Trump made a spectacular announcement in a night full of just epic moments. So many big things happened last night. And, of course, America loved what President Trump delivered last night. But I thought of Dr. Gorka right away when President Trump said this.
SPEAKER 06 :
ISIS terrorists killed 13 American service members and countless others in the Abbey Gate bombing during the disastrous and incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan. Not that they were withdrawing, it was the way they withdrew. Perhaps the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country. Tonight, I am pleased to announce that we have just apprehended the top terrorist responsible for that atrocity. And he is right now on his way here to face the swift sword of American justice.
SPEAKER 03 :
Wow, what a night. What an announcement. Let’s welcome to the show, from the White House, the Deputy Assistant to the President, Senior Director for Counterterrorism, Sebastian Gorka. Dr. G, the joke around the halls is we’ve never seen you as almost giddy as you were last week when you were at the White House. You smiling, you have this fierce sense of optimism and accomplishment, and this has to be just a few weeks into your tenure. A giant feather in the cap of President Trump and the White House and certainly in the counterterrorism efforts. You got the bad guy, Seb.
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah, it’s never been said that Dr. G is a guy who walks around smiling a lot. I think Jesse Waters, I think Jesse Waters once on The Five many years ago called me the scariest guy on television. True, true. But you’re right. For the last 42 days, I’ve been walking around this building with this rictus grin 18 hours a day because, you know, just keeping up with the president is an incredible, incredible thing. feet of joy because America is back, like that first line from last night. And a little bit of inside baseball, I haven’t given any interviews since 3 a.m. yesterday morning when we were at Dulles to receive the heinous plotter behind the deaths of our Abbey Gate 13 servicemen and women. And I’ll reveal to you right now, I live in a SCIF right now, a secure compartmented information facility. So this is You know, classified documents, can’t take a cell phone in there. Day one on the afternoon of January the 20th, because I’m old school. I got a whiteboard mic and I wrote up the priorities for the president in the realm of counterterrorism. And equal number one at the top was getting our hostages back. And right next to it was the letter J. I didn’t ride it out for reasons of operational sensitivity back then, but Jay was the nom de guerre of Jafar, the mastermind, or as the president called him yesterday on the call with the families before the speech, the monster behind Abbey Gate. And my number one priority for the president, for Mike Walsh, the National Security Advisor, was to locate and neutralize the man responsible for the deaths of the Abigate 13. Yesterday, it was better than a movie. It was truly surreal, Mike. I was there with members of my counterterrorism team on the tarmac at 3 a.m. with Attorney General Pam Bondi, with my friend, Director of the FBI Patel Cash, with my other friend, John Radcliffe, the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. All of us Waiting for the man. And then we stepped up onto that plane and we saw him. We brought on board the members of the intelligence community who had been hunting him for three and a half years. And we just realized viscerally, Mike, President Trump kept his promise to the families of those 13 for them.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, and you kept your promise to President Trump. I mean, I’ve got chills right now as you describe that scene at three in the morning. I know you’re limited. I would assume you’re limited on some of the things you can tell us. But are you able to share how we got him?
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah, and it’s really important, and we’re so happy the president mentioned this last night. We worked with the Pakistani government, who have their own counterterrorism problems in their country, but they share this issue with us that ISIS is a threat. And so in the AfPak region, the border region, They located this individual a couple of weeks ago. They told us they had him after we confirmed it with some intelligence capabilities we have unique to us. And then we deployed something called the fly team, the FBI fly team that goes on a jet. to that location, interviews the suspect, verifies their identity biometrics, and then he confessed. He confessed to our FBI agents this weekend. And then we got that flight plan filed. And then we got him back here yesterday morning. And the AG, the deputy AG, Emil, released the… the charges. So I will be filing, I will be posting on social media the charge she used against him. And we have him banged to rights. Not only do we know it’s him, thanks to the incredible work of our intelligence community, he also confessed to multiple terrorist attacks. So this is a big, big win, not just for the president, but the civilized world, Mike. This man is in handcuffs right now in a facility not far from where I’m sitting.
SPEAKER 03 :
Wow, and I’m just beyond grateful that you were able to join us for a few minutes. I know how crazy it has to be at the White House to make this major announcement to kind of echo what President Trump shared with the world last night. Seb, can I ask you a question about just the pragmatism of keeping up with the agenda, keeping up? You’re at three in the morning. You’re at Dulles Airport. You’re on the tarmac. Here you are during that. I mean, I don’t know when any of you guys are sleeping. I talked to you a week ago and you said, I’ve never appreciated my weekends more than I do right now. Is it and I mean this in not a in a critical way. Is it hard to keep up with everything that the president is implementing?
SPEAKER 01 :
It’s hard to even keep track of it. So I’m not in a skiff right now. I’m in one of our diplomatic reception rooms in the White House. So when I’m working, I have to leave my phones outside of my office. So when I leave the office to get a coffee or just get a bite to eat, I check my phones and I go, my gosh, what has the president done in just the last half an hour? I know. I mean, I used to listen to at least four hours of talk radio a day. I don’t get to listen to any of it. I can’t keep up with him. Tariffs, the border, peace deals. And look, here’s the point to answer your question. There are two types of tired. There’s fatigue, right? And you know this because you are the hardest working man in the business. There’s a tired that I’ve been feeling for the last 42 days, which is a good tired. for your fatigue is a good reason. Yeah. Because you’re saving lives, protecting the innocent, bringing justice to evildoers, securing the border. I mean, I saw Tom Holman yesterday in the White House before the speech. Tom burns every hour God sends him. But I know when he rests his head on that pillow of an evening, of a night, for a couple of hours, It is the rest of the just. And that’s why it doesn’t matter, Mike. How long the days are really doesn’t matter.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, you’re helping to bring America back. This president is returning America to its greatness and its glory. And it’s one of the most spectacular things I’ve ever seen. I wasn’t surprised to see the CBS YouGov poll after the speech was over. Of those who watched the speech, 76% approved. You said that’s CBS. 76%. I mean, I’d have taken 60. I mean, this is the look. The American people are on board with this president. There’s the loonies on the left there. They are irrelevant. I do. I will tell you that my stomach was just I was sickened when I saw them refuse to clap for the little 13 year old cancer patient. They didn’t clap for the for the Russian who the guy that was returned from the Russian prison. I don’t I think I can’t get shocked by them anymore. But I’m wrong because there’s look, let’s face it, Seb. We’re witnessing the utter annihilation of today’s Democrat Party. They’re gone. They’re broken.
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah. I don’t want to say this live across the nation, but I hope they carry on in that mode because this is when America sees them. I mean, when 70 plus percent of the nation says, yeah, we want borders, we want lower prices, we want to go to Mars, we want to have a military that’s proud to serve and has record-breaking recruitment figures. And then these individuals are sit on their hands when Jocelyn Nune Gray’s mother is there, whose 12-year-old daughter was murdered by illegals and then thrown into a ditch. Okay, keep your stupid lollipop signs. Keep seated as the president restores America. They will pay a penalty politically, and it won’t be 77 million next time. It’ll be 87 million, Mike. So don’t give them any tips. Let them keep living in their hate-filled bubbles. We are making America safe and great again, and they can just stay in their little hate-filled bubbles, Mike.
SPEAKER 03 :
Seb, I’ve never been prouder of you. I’m so excited for all that you’re doing. Give my best to your beautiful bride, your muse, and keep it up. Keep fighting the good fight. And we’re going to miss you in Alaska. I mean, it’s not going to be the same without the Gorka family. Larry Elder is going to have some big shoes to fill.
SPEAKER 01 :
Well, I know you’ll have an amazing time with your incredible listeners. It’s one of the greatest jobs I’ve ever had. God bless all of you. Have an amazing trip. And I’ve got to get back to work. You got it.
SPEAKER 03 :

SPEAKER 09 :
He’s the happy conservative warrior. From the Relief Factor Studios, here’s Mike Geller.
SPEAKER 06 :
And to my fellow citizens, America is back.
SPEAKER 03 :
As a talk show host, we have to make editorial decisions, and I will tell you coming into the studios today, my decision was, do I just spotlight and focus on the optimism and the epic win of Trump’s spectacular speech last night? I would argue the best speech of his career. Or do we… recognize the despicable, lunatic, reprehensible actions of the Democrats and their media counterparts. You know, I’ve got this great, big, beautiful screen, the MyPillow text line. And you can send me memes and comments and pictures and links. And we’re very active with texting. In fact, I don’t understand how every talk host in America doesn’t love the opportunity to text with their audience. I love it. I really do. And if you’re, you know, if you’re a jerk, we block you. It doesn’t take much. But most people, 99% of people are terrific. And there’s a meme going around showing the picture of little DJ, the 13-year-old cancer patient, that President Trump awarded an honorary membership to the U.S. Secret Service. This little boy who has faced cancer for much of his young life always wanted to be a police officer. And President Trump ordered his Secret Service director to make little DJ a an honorary member of the United States Secret Service. And it was a moment that just brought tears to everyone’s eyes, well, most people’s eyes. Later, after that little boy hugged the Secret Service director, later, Trump announced that the son of a slain police officer had applied to be a West Point cadet. And President Trump announced from the podium that, that that young man was accepted to West Point. And the look of joy and ecstasy on that young man’s face brought more tears to Americans’ eyes. And then the little cancer patient, DJ, came down and gave the West Point cadet a high five. Do you know the Democrats didn’t stand for any of that? They didn’t clap for any of that. Adam Schiff, Elizabeth Warren, all of them, all of these broken, despondent, despicable Democrats sat on their hands. Nancy Pelosi looked utterly broken, clutching her cane, all slumped over, her hair a mess. She looked like a nightmare. Trump called Elizabeth Warren out and called her Pocahontas. She looked livid. Al Green was waving his stupid cane around and they had to escort him out because he made such a fool of himself. Here’s the meme that’s making the rounds that is so good and so perfect. A picture of little DJ proudly holding up his new Secret Service badge. They gave him a wallet and everything. And there he is, proudly holding that in the air. And the meme says, when you can’t even stand and cheer for a courageous boy who’s fought cancer for six years, you have lost your soul. We are witnessing the utter annihilation of today’s Democrat Party. Trump has broken them. Trump has destroyed the Democrats. They’ve got nothing. They’re left with yelling like the two old men up in the balcony at the Muppets. The two old guys, the grumpy old, that’s all they’ve got is yelling. I hosted last night our Salem News Channel coverage, and we had kind of a token Democrat on, and he was really a pretty good guy, Rick Unger. Maybe you’ve seen him on, because he likes to go on to conservative platforms. But he’s like a Harold Ford-style Democrat. He’s not really far left. He’s not really an extremist. He tried to make the case last night that the Democrat, and he would not go along with the rabid Democrats of his party. And he certainly doesn’t acknowledge that the Democrats are destroyed. But they are. They are. They’re gone. And Rick Unger brought up an about of whataboutism last night. Well, this was before the speech now, admittedly. I’ll bet Rick didn’t anticipate that all through the speech… the despicable Democrats would be booing and catcalling and moaning and making all kinds of noises and doing their best to disrupt the speech. They did it much of the night. And last night, Rick Unger brought up the fact that, well, remember when Joe Wilson from South Carolina said you lied to Barack Obama? They’re still bringing that up. Well, compare two words, Joe Wilson’s you lied from years ago with Barack Obama. Compare that to what happened last night. Hey, Democrat strategist Rick Unger, you going to defend this?
SPEAKER 06 :
We won the popular vote by big numbers and won counties in our country.
SPEAKER 03 :
Here is the moment, this cut three, when Al Green had to be forcibly removed because this dummy is standing there waving his stupid cane. He’s the guy that’s preparing articles of impeachment. Good luck. That’ll be a great task, Congressman Green. You’re really doing the people’s work there, representing your district in Texas. Speaker Johnson had to have him removed from the chamber.
SPEAKER 10 :
Finding that members continue to engage in willful and concerted disruption of proper decorum, the chair now directs the sergeant-at-arms to restore order. Remove this gentleman from the chamber.
SPEAKER 03 :
There they went. They got him, took him out. And then, of course, he held the obligatory press conference. But really, when you can’t clap for some of these breathtakingly beautiful moments, you really are gone. You’re broken. You’ve lost your soul and you’ve lost your party. And the Democrats know it. One major poll came out after the speech, the CBS News YouGov survey. 76% of people who watched the speech approved of President Trump’s speech.
SPEAKER 1 :
76%.
SPEAKER 03 :
The time that Trump spent on issues you care about among speech watchers, 63% said a lot. Only 28% said a little. How did the speech make you feel?
SPEAKER 1 :
68%.
SPEAKER 03 :
Again, a CBS YouGov poll. 68% said hopeful. 54% proud. Only 27% said worried. In the speech overall, Trump was, among the speech watchers, presidential. 74%. Entertaining, 74%. Inspiring, 71%. Unifying, 62%. So I’m back to my original question. It’s a tough one to tackle. Do we focus on all the positive moments? And I got a lot of clips for you. Or do you want to hear about the despicable tactics of the vile media like Nicole Wallace? You want to know what she said over at MSNBC? Are you ready for this? She said on air last night she hopes DJ, the little cancer patient who was made an honorary Secret Service member. You’re going to think I’m making this up. I got the receipts. She actually said on national television, I hope he doesn’t kill himself someday because of Trump supporters. I hope he doesn’t commit suicide someday because of Trump supporters. That actually came out of the mouth of that vile woman. over at MSNBC. So, do we focus on the crap like that? Do we stay focused on the positive? Or maybe do both? You let me know, because I want your reaction to all of it. As we kick off a Wednesday, we are feeling great about America, about the direction of this country, about the American people. Welcome in to a break. And America is back, incidentally. You go to MikeOnline.com. We’re selling T-shirts, bumper stickers, coffee mugs that say America is back. Great-looking logo. America is Back t-shirts, bumper stickers, coffee mugs, and more at the Mike Gallagher store. Just go to MikeOnline.com if you want to order some. You’ll feel great as you do so.

SPEAKER 09 :
Mike Gallagher. Every day, Mike visits with Mark Davis. Morning host on 660 AM, The Answer in Dallas. Here’s today’s M&M experience.
SPEAKER 03 :
I have to give New York a little credit. They have mostly now newer trains. They’ve got kind of a newer technology, and I can tell they’re newer from what they used to be. A lot of the trains were just like right out of… India. I mean, they were ghastly. But now they’re better. Now they’re a little bit… New York is getting better. It’s coming back.
SPEAKER 02 :
So when you are stabbed, you fall onto a cleaner floor. Yes.
SPEAKER 03 :
And a little red light goes off saying dead body on car five.
SPEAKER 02 :
When the body fluids are sprayed over you, they come against a cleaner window behind your head.
SPEAKER 03 :
When they take the fire extinguishers to put out your body when it’s lit on fire, they can sweep it up real quick. Exactly. But anyway, I was thinking about the reason I don’t really want to put a reasonable Democrat on, because I don’t want to let them score any points. We’ve got to keep winning, Mark. Now we’ve got to put the—look, Trump gives two craps right now. He is—it is just Trump on steroids. He doesn’t care. He’s got one term to do all this. He’s throwing so much. We’ve got to keep winning. We’ve got to win in the midterms. And I don’t want to—I really—
SPEAKER 02 :
Look, I’m a partisan. I don’t want them to win. But here’s the thing. One’s partisanship is not diluted by paying thoughtful attention to who we’re going to meet on the battlefield. So this guy, if I’m hearing you right, you would disagree with everything he said, but he seemed thoughtful, seemed principled, seemed a worthy conversational partner. Do it.
SPEAKER 01 :
Do it.
SPEAKER 02 :
I want them all. It makes our brains bigger. It’s calisthenics. It’s like, okay, there they are. It doesn’t, quote, unquote, help them. It’s not like the party’s going to hear one guest on your show or mine and go, oh, that’s right. We need to get rid of the AOCs and the Jasmine Crockets and start offering up Fetterman. No.
SPEAKER 03 :
Well, I think that what it does, though, is remind the audience that there are some reasonable Democrats and maybe they’re not so bad. And then they go back to their old ways. And they vote for Democrats. No, he’s blackballed. I’ve just decided. I’m not having him on. He’s not going to darken our door. I mean, incidentally, did you see the CBS News YouGov poll?
SPEAKER 02 :
Can I build to this? I will let you deliver the number. I will build it up. I will deliver the lob. You deliver the overhand smash. Last night, they go to the polling and they say, OK, America, what did you think of this? We are still basically a 50-50 country with the poll victory, with the popular vote victory. Maybe you call it 52-48, something like that. But we’re still a very balanced, liberal, conservative country. So it would be something if it were like 60, 40, a 20 point. That would be really, really something if the positives were 60 and the negatives were 40. Then you get greedy and you go, let’s look at 66, 33, 66, 34, like a two to one margin. Oh, dare we dream that the poll numbers be that high with more. Here’s Mike.
SPEAKER 03 :
Gosh, you’re good. I love the way you set things up. And let’s qualify, A, if this is CBS. Oh, yeah. This is not Town Hall. Oh, no. This is not National Review. This is CBS.
SPEAKER 02 :
It’s also not online. Correct. Like, hey, laptops, how did you feel about this? Correct. Because that’s totally unscientific.
SPEAKER 03 :
And it’s only among those who actually bothered to watch the speech. Correct. This is among speech watchers. All right. Your overall view of Trump’s. Trump’s speech, 76% approved, 23% disapproved. 76 to 23. Three to one. Now, let’s go down into the weeds a little bit on it. The time Trump spent on issues you care about, 63% a lot, 28% a little. Speech made you feel… hopeful, 68%, proud, 54%, worried, 27%. No, they’re worried, all right. But 27%, though, Mark, that’s one out of four. That’s nothing. That’s such a minority. Yeah. Like Trump’s plans for wasting government spending, like 77%, dislike 23%. Immigration, 77%. Ukraine, 73%. Now tariffs, he really stumbles here. Oh my gosh. Uh-oh, 2019. It’s only 65% like his plans. And of course, my favorite question of the poll is, Having congressmen removed from the chamber for interrupting Trump, 76% approved, only 24% disapproved. I mean, this Al Green, this pathetic guy, do you think they sit around in a room somewhere and say, all right, who’s going to draw the short straw here? Al, you know what? Wave your cane. Stand up there and make a jackass out of yourself. Let’s make them remove you. Do you think they do that by a voice vote, or does he just do it because he wants to?
SPEAKER 02 :
Knowing Al, I think it’s Al. And if somebody had come to us during this segment yesterday, ding, ding, ding, excuse me, Mike and Mark. Would you guys come up with a list of things Democrats could do to make them look like even bigger, pathetic losers? I think we would have said, well, let’s have one of them behave like such a fool that he is actually physically removed. Let’s have them all wear some color. Let’s have them wear pink to remind everybody that they voted against protecting women and women’s sports and women in locker rooms. And let’s say a third thing. What would you and I have come up with? How about some stupid little signs? that look like they’re at an auction.
SPEAKER 03 :
Little paddles, like they’re in Sotheby’s or whatever it is. Elon steals. False. Do you see the dummy from New Mexico that had the sign, this is not normal? And then I think it was a Texas congressman who ripped the sign out of her hand. This is when Trump was coming down the aisle, and I was anchoring, so I’m on the set here in New York, and I’m saying, oh, there’s President Trump, and there’s Pete Higgins. And this dummy in her pink suit is standing there with a little sign. It just said, this is not normal. She’s kind of right.
SPEAKER 02 :
I said, you’re right. Not in the way she means. That’s right. But we agree for the wrong reason.
SPEAKER 03 :
But I said, you’re absolutely, you are correct, ma’am. And then somebody ripped it out of her hand, threw it up in the air. I mean, you know, it’s funny. I went through a cycle last night where for a while, about halfway into the speech, I thought, you know, I know there’s going to be criticism for the way the Democrats are carrying on. And believe me, they booed and they made noises and they grunted and they groaned and they sighed and they heaved. And Nancy Pelosi was trying to keep her dentures in the whole night. And incidentally, there was a meme that showed how it started, how it finished. On the left was Nancy ripping up Trump’s State of the Union speech. 2020. And on the right was last night where she’s all hunched over. Her dentures look like they’re going to pop out of her head any minute now. Her hair looks unkempt. She’s a mess. She’s got her walker, her cane, because the poor thing fell down some steps recently. That’s how it ended for her. That speech-ripping night was one of the most shameful things. I’ll never forget it. I’ll never forgive her. But here’s the cycle I went on, and I want to bounce it off you as we close. Mm-hmm. I got halfway through and I thought, you know what? I don’t mind the rambunctiousness. I thought, you know, they don’t like him. They’re upset. You’ve seen British Parliament. They’re all yelling at each other and they’re screaming at each other. Yeah, but that’s Prime Minister’s question time where that’s expected. Right. But to me, it’s America. I kind of like it. But then I started seething. I started to get angry at the things that they kept sitting down for and wouldn’t clap. Mark, they couldn’t clap for the return of a Russian hostage.
SPEAKER 02 :
I know.
SPEAKER 03 :
I watched them.
SPEAKER 02 :
Adam Schiff. And his 95-year-old mother.
SPEAKER 03 :
They couldn’t clap for the 13-year-old cancer patient. They couldn’t clap for the girl that got permanently ruined from sports because a biological male spiked a volleyball into her face and gave her brain damage. They didn’t clap for any of that, Mark. And I thought… They are broken. Mark, today’s Democrat Party, full stop, and I know you hate that expression, but I’m going to say it. It works now. It’s a freak show. Today’s Democrat Party is a freak show. They are unrecognizable from even five or ten years ago. They’re broken. Trump broke them. America is back, and it is a golden era, and I’m loving every minute of it, my friend.
