Donald Trump Jr. on the Most Amazing Political Comeback in American History and Why Exile Made Them Stronger

[00:00] all right Don welcome to Phoenix man

[00:02] good to be here good to be back so uh we

[00:04] got quite a crowd our our members only

[00:06] crew is growing I mean your memb only

[00:08] crew is larger than like the entire

[00:09] membership of Turning Point the first

[00:11] time I one like this would have been a

[00:13] big turnout back in like 16 for you oh

[00:16] yeah the first event you spoke at was

[00:18] our winter and West Palm Beach event in

[00:21] Palm Beach this was like the combined

[00:23] attendance of that entire event and by

[00:25] the way by political standards that was

[00:27] uh huge so to speak with a capital Y uh

[00:30] but it's it's grown a lot it has so so

[00:33] don there's so much to kind of walk

[00:35] through let's go back to what you call

[00:38] Day One what we call the new day one

[00:40] January 7th 2021 yeah it looked as if

[00:44] the Trump movement was over we were put

[00:46] in Exile you never gave up we never gave

[00:49] up and now here we are today where

[00:50] everyone acts as if it was an obvious

[00:52] foregone conclusion that we're going to

[00:54] take back the White House take us back

[00:55] in time walk us through the most amazing

[00:58] political comeback in American history

[01:00] yeah no it was uh it was incredible I

[01:02] mean everyone was like well I was there

[01:03] in you know 16 and 15 and whatever is

[01:05] like well where were you in January 7th

[01:07] because there there's multiple day on if

[01:08] you were at both of those places uh

[01:10] that's that's pretty great uh and that's

[01:13] really the applicant pool of who we're

[01:14] looking at right now I mean the amount

[01:16] of people who you know jumped ship on

[01:19] January 7th and you know Trump was Trump

[01:22] never had a chance on you know back in

[01:24] 15 zero chance of winning a primary zero

[01:26] chance of beating Hillary Clinton you

[01:28] know he was definitely getting impeached

[01:29] twice he was he just kept coming back uh

[01:33] watching all of these people uh write

[01:35] you off so many times it's actually

[01:37] great motivation but I think that's

[01:38] what's so much more effective about this

[01:41] Administration this cabinet uh the

[01:43] people that are involved we just know

[01:46] you know in in 16 we didn't know

[01:48] anything we didn't know the first night

[01:49] my father spent in Washington DC was the

[01:51] night he moved into the white house uh

[01:54] you we were trusting you know Chris

[01:56] Krispy cream Christie uh you know that

[01:59] that was our closest person that may

[02:01] have known something about Washington

[02:03] and you know maybe he did maybe it was

[02:05] you know he knew something bad uh and so

[02:08] it's just so different which gives me so

[02:10] much hope it's why you see people trying

[02:12] so desperately now and it but it's not

[02:14] working anymore uh once you got a hold

[02:16] of X and you know watching the left

[02:20] right now just oh my God it's a

[02:22] rightwing platform it's no it's 50/50

[02:23] you're just used to having an entire

[02:25] Echo chamber to yourselves you're not

[02:26] used to having to argue you're not used

[02:28] to having to actually formulate an

[02:30] opinion because whatever you said was

[02:31] just the gospel and as long as you

[02:32] repeat the narrative uh you were

[02:34] rewarded with followers and likes uh

[02:36] it's just so different now the people

[02:38] are involved I mean you know when as

[02:40] we've been saying like we are the media

[02:42] now yes we're also the government now

[02:49] um I mean I mean it I mean you you you

[02:51] look at what's happening uh in the last

[02:54] few weeks I mean you know two three

[02:55] weeks ago you know Pete Heth was dead

[02:58] according to the media and then you know

[03:00] Maga got involved people were vocal they

[03:02] started calling out sort of the you know

[03:04] more Rhino leaning uh members of the

[03:07] Republican Senate and all of a sudden

[03:08] everyone's back in line and I call it

[03:10] ETP education through

[03:12] pain uh you know it's Charlie like you

[03:15] know it is but that's what it is it's

[03:17] you know not in the physical sense of

[03:19] the word you know gu some schmuck on

[03:20] CNN's going to take he's inciting

[03:23] violence you know you you know the deal

[03:27] uh and so you know we did we weren't

[03:30] able to do that in the past right even

[03:32] if we had our voices out there they were

[03:34] suppressed so badly while you know this

[03:36] sort of popular Democrat narrative was

[03:38] enhanced artificially uh now with with a

[03:41] Level Playing Field we can do that and

[03:43] we can make these you know

[03:45] Representatives actually represent us

[03:46] for a change I know that you know

[03:48] they're used to doing the bidding of the

[03:49] oligarchs in the DC swamp uh that's gone

[03:53] right now and that that's why it's so

[03:54] fundamental we just keep it up you can't

[03:57] do that and when people well this one's

[03:59] over and if if if hegi would have rolled

[04:01] they would have set their targets on the

[04:02] next one it would have it would have

[04:03] been a dynamic shift for the next four

[04:05] years but watching you know not just us

[04:07] but all of you uh you know get after it

[04:10] get involved call these people out you

[04:12] know whether it was physically whether

[04:13] it was on social whether it was on the

[04:15] media you know we turned a narrative

[04:17] around in like three or four days that

[04:19] the the you know the experts we all been

[04:23] hearing about experts for a while you

[04:24] can't be an expert by the way if you

[04:26] haven't been right in about a decade

[04:27] that you should lose your expert status

[04:29] uh you know but the experts were saying

[04:31] you know there's blood in the water this

[04:32] thing's over and you know the base stuck

[04:35] by their people and when we do that and

[04:37] we become unafraid and we fight back we

[04:39] win and that it's that simple and so I

[04:42] want to be very clear we said this and

[04:44] and Don and I were part of a few people

[04:46] that held the line for Pat heg and

[04:48] that's not over yet but that was a very

[04:50] telling moment because if we would have

[04:53] just kind of surrendered it could have

[04:55] derailed the entire Trump presidency and

[04:58] I I hope you guys understand that that

[04:59] the whole direction of the Trump

[05:00] presidency was in suspension I said and

[05:02] Don echoed and vice versa that if you

[05:05] are a Republican senator like Joanie

[05:07] Ernst or many one of these others and

[05:09] you voted for Joe Biden's Department of

[05:12] Defense director and you won't vote for

[05:14] Donald Trump's DOD director we will

[05:16] primary you and remove you from office

[05:20] [Applause]

[05:22] immediately we're we're actually

[05:24] watching that play out again I mean with

[05:26] the CR I mean you took a bill that the

[05:28] swamp would have Bly signed that had a

[05:30] lot of stuff that was bad and you know

[05:32] in 3 hours that thing was Dead on

[05:33] Arrival uh and again uh because of you

[05:39] guys calling it out we now have the in

[05:41] the ability to assess information

[05:43] rapidly uh not you know well pass it to

[05:45] figure out what's in it we've heard that

[05:47] for far too long now we can actually see

[05:49] it uh with a Level Playing Field you

[05:52] know on social we're actually all able

[05:53] to then chime in and you know in 2448

[05:57] hours we got a new bill that got rid of

[05:58] a lot of that pork and a lot of that

[06:00] waste and all of the things that

[06:01] everyone here voted against on November

[06:03] 5th it's funny they have a comparison

[06:05] right now on Twitter is that the other

[06:07] one was 1500 the new CR is like three

[06:09] pages long which is the way it should be

[06:11] by the way is that if you're going to do

[06:13] a CR and you're going to do debt living

[06:14] increase you don't need 900 different

[06:16] pages to get there Don what is it about

[06:19] this retiring Republican ideology from

[06:22] some of these Senators where they feel

[06:24] as if it's okay to give Joe Biden what

[06:26] he wants but not Donald Trump like it's

[06:30] not easily understood what it help me

[06:33] understand the psychology behind that am

[06:35] I allowed to say it's like a mindset can

[06:37] I say that on the Charlie C I'm not I

[06:40] I'm not quite as Evangelical as Charlie

[06:42] so uh I I

[06:44] I'm I'm I'm gonna go no it is there you

[06:47] know what it is I've been saying it it's

[06:50] if you're a weak Republican in DC it's

[06:52] an easy existence you know you can be

[06:55] like 90% of the way there you know 80%

[06:57] of the way there as long as you give up

[06:59] when the Democrats really need it or

[07:01] want it they leave you alone they don't

[07:03] show up in front of your house you're

[07:04] not getting the hate you know mail you

[07:06] know uh editorial from The Washington

[07:09] Post uh and so for a lot of these people

[07:12] they get to DC and they forget about the

[07:14] people who actually sent them there and

[07:16] what they actually represent I've I've

[07:17] been in the room I've seen it a thousand

[07:19] times I'll go do events for these people

[07:21] try to help them get elected because he

[07:22] I mean not not not in all cases but

[07:24] usually a weak Republican is uh you know

[07:26] still better than a d so you go there

[07:28] you hear the things they're saying to

[07:30] the people like you know what this guy's

[07:31] not going to be that bad or This Woman's

[07:32] not going to be that bad they're going

[07:33] to be fine you know it's maybe not

[07:35] exactly what I want and then they get to

[07:37] DC and it's a totally transformed

[07:39] individual uh you know they they feel

[07:42] they they really have to answer to the

[07:43] swamp far more than the people that they

[07:45] represent and again that's what that

[07:47] Dynamic shift is all about right now

[07:49] because the people they represent are

[07:51] actually paying attention they've been

[07:53] lied to Forever they no longer just have

[07:55] this Blind Faith uh you know that the

[07:58] person who they heard speak two days

[08:00] before telling them everything they

[08:01] wanted to hear checkpoint by checkpoint

[08:03] is actually going to do it in DC because

[08:06] guys like us are actually out there

[08:07] calling them out they see it and they're

[08:08] saying wait a second you know we're

[08:10] putting up their numbers in DC and you

[08:11] get a couple thousand calls from your

[08:12] constituents if you're a congressman or

[08:14] a lot more than that if you're Senator

[08:15] and all of a sudden they realize like

[08:17] hey The Jig Is up they're on to us we

[08:19] can't get away with it anymore uh you

[08:21] know if you're going to face

[08:22] accountability I like for me when I get

[08:24] a hate piece from The Washington Post

[08:25] with the New York Times like I look at

[08:26] that as a win like it means I'm over the

[08:29] target it means I'm actually being

[08:30] effective uh you know they don't view it

[08:33] that way it it we've not been playing

[08:35] the same game for far too long we've

[08:37] been playing tball while the Democrats

[08:38] have been playing hard ball I'm fine

[08:40] with either game but we have to be

[08:41] playing the same game and I think it's

[08:42] changing I mean with people like you JD

[08:44] Vance how great is JD Vance by the way

[08:46] isn't it just

[08:47] amazing and before I go any further Don

[08:51] deserves a lot of credit for pushing for

[08:53] JD Vance and understand the easy way out

[08:56] would have been a typical DC Republican

[08:59] and Don you pushed for JD why did you

[09:02] push so hard for JD I mean I did a small

[09:04] little thing but I mean you really you

[09:06] went all in if it was politics is a

[09:07] poker game Don took all of his chips is

[09:10] that right Don early and early and you

[09:12] said the hand haven't been even dealt

[09:14] yet like I'm in uh you know what I got

[09:17] to know him actually it was sort of

[09:18] interesting I you know I read his book

[09:19] when it first came out I was like wow

[09:21] like you know as you started seeing more

[09:22] like we need more people like this then

[09:24] it sort of went a different way and I

[09:26] actually got to know him through some

[09:27] friends of ours uh started hanging out

[09:29] with him man this guy's like a great

[09:31] talent just totally gets it you know

[09:33] brilliant you know just an incredible

[09:34] upbringing hasn't forgotten that

[09:36] upbringing which is what so many people

[09:39] uh you know tend to do in in politics or

[09:40] once they reach some sort of level of

[09:42] success uh you know got to know him

[09:44] really well and basically I I mean I

[09:46] sort of did the the pre-end endorsements

[09:49] sort of The Unofficial pre-end sement

[09:51] you know got to be got to be a little

[09:53] careful getting ahead of djt uh but I

[09:55] did that in the uh in his Republican

[09:57] primary when he was just running for I

[09:59] remember uh and then you know you me

[10:02] Tucker I mean you know there was a small

[10:05] band that just sort of you know really

[10:07] pushed to make that happen because again

[10:09] I think we recognized the talent we had

[10:10] the band with and the time to be able to

[10:11] spend there and figure out uh what this

[10:13] meant uh and once I saw his performance

[10:16] in the Senate I was like I mean there's

[10:19] you know there's there's not many

[10:20] senators you'd want to share a foxhole

[10:21] with certainly you know even on the

[10:22] Republican side but uh you know this was

[10:25] the one guy that I was like wow like

[10:26] that that's someone we can build a party

[10:28] around because for me it isn't just

[10:30] about Trump like I I actually believe in

[10:32] this stuff I've been a lifelong

[10:33] conservative I've always wanted you know

[10:35] I want this to continue beyond Trump

[10:37] it's just not four more years great and

[10:39] then we're back to like the Mitt Romney

[10:41] Liz Cheney

[10:43] party I I know that's yes I am saying

[10:47] what you're saying uh and you know so it

[10:50] was really about establishing that bench

[10:52] because that's what scared me when I

[10:54] when I looked at 16 to 20 um it was like

[10:57] well what is next there was no real

[10:59] standout there was no this I mean you

[11:02] know it was sort of joking we were all

[11:03] joking at the time it was like even for

[11:05] the 2020 uh 20124 primaries like before

[11:08] all that happened in the early stuff

[11:10] like you know I was first or second I

[11:12] was like well that's great I appreciate

[11:13] the compliment but like we need more Don

[11:15] 2028 what do you think

[11:17] God no JD 2028 JD 2032 Don 2036 now we

[11:24] got it all figured out okay well I mean

[11:26] it was funny we were joking around you

[11:27] know a text thread earlier there some

[11:29] poll came out it was basically uh for

[11:31] the 2028 it's it's JD than me uh

[11:34] basically dominating the entire field

[11:37] said 4% I I don't know where he was but

[11:39] it it was a far cry but it's just

[11:42] important to understand like Maga is the

[11:44] party now that's not Trump that's just

[11:46] people who believe in putting America

[11:48] First that that that's what it has to be

[11:51] there there there's not a Republican

[11:53] party anymore in anything other than

[11:55] name that's maybe what we still call

[11:56] each other uh it's about being America

[11:59] first and like sort of feels like that's

[12:01] the way it should have always

[12:02] been so so don we we look at this agenda

[12:06] and the team that we've put together can

[12:08] can you speak about some of these new

[12:09] arrivals in the last 12 months we had

[12:12] America fest last year you spoke you

[12:13] gave a great speech but I want to go

[12:15] through the list a year ago tulsey

[12:17] gabard Bobby Kennedy and Elon Musk were

[12:20] not yet part of kind of our team yeah

[12:23] amazing a difference a year makes right

[12:25] everybody now not only are they part of

[12:27] our team Elon Musk lives Mar Lago now he

[12:30] gets his mail can you speak that like he

[12:32] gets his mail he's there all the time I

[12:34] mean he's getting it's amazing he's

[12:36] there with his son X and uh you know he

[12:38] was really sort of funny I got sort of

[12:40] sort of a great compliment from him

[12:41] early on in the first couple weeks with

[12:43] the transition I was in a meeting and

[12:44] like you know I'm the guy that sort of

[12:45] takes some pretty aggressive stances and

[12:47] you know room of people that just a

[12:48] little bit more cautious than me and

[12:50] that just I like seven times he like yes

[12:52] exactly what we have to do and it was it

[12:54] was just great to see people finally

[12:56] again willing to fight a guy like that

[12:58] you know maybe one of the greatest Minds

[13:00] ever certainly of Our Generation uh

[13:02] willing to take the time to help set

[13:04] these things up right to be able to look

[13:06] into the inefficiencies a guy that's you

[13:08] know done more in space than NASA that

[13:10] had a 75 year Head Start uh like I like

[13:13] I want that guy involved in looking at

[13:15] the rest of the apparatus of government

[13:18] um and so that was great but no you're

[13:19] right I mean I I guess I had a pretty

[13:21] big part in in Tulsa and Bobby as well

[13:24] just talk about that well so you know I

[13:26] have a friend actually uh business

[13:28] partner partner Omid Malik former

[13:31] Democrat got sort of you know blindsided

[13:34] by a lot of the insanity of the left

[13:35] woke up uh became a donor of ours uh in

[13:39] 2020 became a real good friend of mine

[13:41] took a couple you know conservative sort

[13:42] of parallel economies companies public

[13:44] with me uh all these things we were

[13:46] fighting and he was like listen as a

[13:48] former Democrat I want you to know I'm

[13:49] friends with some of these people and

[13:50] you'd actually get along with them

[13:51] really well uh there there's a lot more

[13:55] that we share in common than you know we

[13:56] may not agree on everything but a lot

[13:58] more and he sort of started having me

[14:00] sort of back channeling with Bobby uh

[14:03] when I saw what the Democrats sort of

[14:04] were trying to do which was like

[14:06] ostracize him from their side create a

[14:08] crudel against Trump try to split that

[14:11] vote I'm like you know djt actually

[14:13] probably agrees with 90% of what he's

[14:15] saying on on so many of these issues I

[14:17] know they had a history in the past I

[14:19] was like let's let's just do this and so

[14:21] you know I basically got Susie WS

[14:23] involved and my father but basically no

[14:26] one else because if anyone else gets

[14:28] involved you understand what happen

[14:29] right the leaks happen on purpose then

[14:31] they use that leak to try to create a

[14:33] you know a divide uh then they can never

[14:36] possibly get them together which is why

[14:38] that didn't leak for the record I didn't

[14:40] leak you didn't leak you Charlie was one

[14:42] of the few confidants I was like listen

[14:43] I think I'm landing this plane like I

[14:45] got this thing uh he was like no you

[14:47] called me the day before you're like you

[14:48] don't have this thing I like you let I I

[14:51] doubted I was a doubting Thomas I was

[14:53] like Don you're calling the shot you're

[14:54] like it's done it's done it's done and

[14:56] you know the next day we did that and

[14:58] and what was so great about it for me

[15:00] was how well it was received like people

[15:02] actually wanted this stuff and like when

[15:04] you talk to Bobby and again you know

[15:06] when I first you know I'm I'm an attack

[15:08] dog right when he first came out I was

[15:09] like I'm going to attack and then I got

[15:10] to know him and started listening to the

[15:11] points I'm like this is exactly who I'd

[15:13] want at HHS or you're looking into the

[15:15] food and it's it's again create the

[15:17] transparency let people the biggest

[15:19] thing that Doge can do isn't even the

[15:21] the action it's showing the American

[15:23] people the trillions of dollars we have

[15:26] wasted on nonsense on garbage once they

[15:29] do that once the American people have an

[15:31] understanding it it won't continue you

[15:34] know but it's it's the stuff that's

[15:36] happens you know behind closed doors

[15:37] that no one really understands and they

[15:38] just assume it's being spent well uh you

[15:41] know all of these things and basically

[15:42] the same thing happened uh you know with

[15:44] Tulsi uh who I think will also do a

[15:46] great job there so uh it's great to have

[15:49] this sort of you know large tent we've

[15:52] always talked about that for a while

[15:53] we've welcomed so many and we've we've

[15:55] seen that play out certainly in the

[15:56] electorate but you know watching the

[15:59] Democrats basically you know eat their

[16:01] own for anyone who's not 100% in line

[16:04] with their insane talking points they'd

[16:06] lost their minds and they killed anyone

[16:09] uh who was reasonable who didn't just

[16:11] buy into the narrative and you know when

[16:13] you look at the sort of the diverse uh

[16:15] you know parties that are involved now

[16:17] the the background I mean how many

[16:19] former Democrats that have just woken up

[16:21] that are now a part of this

[16:23] Administration I mean it's it's

[16:24] incredible I mean this is actually a

[16:26] much more real representation of America

[16:28] than any the Democrats have put up in

[16:30] maybe ever so I want to open up to the

[16:33] audience in a second Don but I'm going

[16:35] to ask about just the questions I get a

[16:38] lot about your father about how he

[16:41] operates uh because it really is unlike

[16:44] anything ever seen and I mean from the

[16:46] stamina to the capacity to to not just

[16:50] campaign but just this life force and I

[16:52] mean you've seen it your entire life I

[16:54] mean one one one story that I could tell

[16:57] just from three days we were hosting

[16:59] president Trump back to back in Georgia

[17:01] and then Vegas I did a couple campus

[17:03] events in between a couple red eyes and

[17:05] I was like destroyed yeah and president

[17:09] Trump had like four campaign events a

[17:11] day went from Georgia to obviously Palm

[17:13] Beach to Palm Beach to Arizona Arizona

[17:16] to Nevada did two vents to Nevada then

[17:18] went and did Rogan show then the T to

[17:21] Michigan came back to 3:00 a.m. he ended

[17:23] up spending 72 hours awake straight

[17:26] before the election is that an

[17:28] exaggeration

[17:29] no he did not sleep for 3 days straight

[17:32] I mean this guy is 78 years old I mean

[17:35] just it's unbelievable right it is it's

[17:38] uh I've seen it sort of my whole life I

[17:40] used to get when I when I was younger

[17:43] and Dumber maybe a little Wilder on the

[17:44] weekends so like I'd get a call at like

[17:45] a Saturday morning at 5:00 a.m. let's

[17:47] just say I was probably not in the best

[17:49] shape of my life at 5:00 in the morning

[17:50] my early 20s on a Saturday and you know

[17:53] he'd be like hey why aren't you in the

[17:55] office I'm like you know smart ass Don

[17:57] it's like why aren't you in the office

[17:58] he's like I am in the office I'm

[17:59] standing in your office right now and

[18:00] that's why I know you're not here I'm

[18:02] like give me 20 minutes I'll I'll be

[18:05] there it's going to hurt uh no but you

[18:09] know you saw that with Rogan I saw it

[18:11] you know I mean I saw it just you know

[18:13] the day before the election I mean uh

[18:15] you know I consider myself a reasonably

[18:17] high energy individual we've seen what

[18:18] happens to low energy

[18:20] individuals I'd get you know thrown out

[18:22] the window of Trump Tower that doesn't

[18:23] work in our family and you know the two

[18:26] days before the election I you know I

[18:27] watched him literally PA pull two all

[18:29] nighters in a row and I was I was there

[18:30] and he was doing most of the speaking

[18:32] this was actually I I'm the guy that you

[18:35] know unlike most in politics like I

[18:36] don't just show up to be in the selfie

[18:37] in the background to be able to show

[18:38] people I was doing something I I say let

[18:40] him do his thing you don't need two

[18:42] trumps in a room send me where he can't

[18:43] be I'm not looking for credit like I

[18:46] just I don't do that but like the last

[18:48] like basically two days I wanted to be

[18:50] there just because of the historical

[18:51] moment I just wanted to you know and uh

[18:54] we had done everything we needed to do

[18:55] and I'm I'm watching them do this and

[18:57] literally two all nighter in a row and

[18:59] I'm dying and he's playing like loud

[19:02] music on the plane at 4 in the morning

[19:04] I'm like I just want to die like we like

[19:07] I'm like what what is going on here you

[19:09] know and then I'm I'm watching we land

[19:12] it's 6:00 a.m. I get home I take a

[19:15] shower I'm going to go try to take a nap

[19:16] for two hours before I get back on TV

[19:19] and 700 a.m. I'm seeing him on TV and

[19:22] he's just going on through the day and

[19:23] then we go into election night and it's

[19:25] you know in another night where he left

[19:28] the you know the auditorium at like 56

[19:30] in the morning it 72 hours he's 78 years

[19:33] old like I'm 46 and I'm like I'm

[19:36] dying uh and I don't think anyone's ever

[19:39] accused me of being low energy so it's

[19:40] like you know that's a that's a pretty

[19:41] solid Benchmark I mean it's just it is

[19:44] uh where does that come from Don is

[19:45] thatan I think he's just always had it

[19:46] he's never been much of a sleeper he's

[19:48] always been you know passionate uh he's

[19:52] a he's a true competitor and he actually

[19:53] does better you know most people fail

[19:55] Under Pressure he's one of those guys

[19:57] that just does better right we talked

[19:58] about res when we started this and you

[20:00] know when you look at the times he's

[20:01] been counted out uh whether it was in

[20:04] business whether it was like just he

[20:06] just continues to be able to fight back

[20:09] and and when he's put under that

[20:10] pressure he just does better it it's

[20:13] it's it I don't think we'll ever see

[20:15] anything like that in politics again do

[20:16] you think that the four years off that

[20:19] we had Exile was good for us 100% like

[20:23] it's not even CL and trust me uh as one

[20:26] of the most subpoena uh human beings in

[20:29] the history of the world as I you know I

[20:31] don't know how many people I don't think

[20:32] there's too many people that have done

[20:33] more than 50 hours of congressional

[20:35] testimony than me so like that was

[20:36] another you know uh you know the four

[20:39] years of hell that we went through

[20:40] whether it's the lawfare the you know

[20:42] just everything the laware the Exile the

[20:46] the attempt of the swamp to push us out

[20:48] the attempt of the Republican party to

[20:49] push you know sort of Maga out uh that

[20:52] was brutal it sucked uh but uh I think

[20:56] the reality is had we just stayed in

[20:58] office in 2020 you would have had the

[21:00] same guys that were there who didn't

[21:03] really belong that were you know some of

[21:05] whom are fine you know maybe two or

[21:07] three guys that were great but like not

[21:08] many uh you would had those same people

[21:11] that were the unelected bureaucrats they

[21:12] just know better so they're going to

[21:14] subvert the will of the people they're

[21:16] going to subvert the duly elected

[21:17] president of the United States they'll

[21:18] kick the Canon down the road they're

[21:19] going to slow roll it now we're starting

[21:22] from scratch uh we with we're starting

[21:25] from scratch with people who are the

[21:26] true loyalists uh the people who get it

[21:29] the PE you know the concentric circles

[21:31] of politics are interesting right

[21:32] there's like there's like loyal there's

[21:34] competent and you know there's a very

[21:36] small intersection where where those

[21:38] things overlap uh you know we actually

[21:41] know who and l i I appreciate the

[21:43] loyalty is incredible I love that but

[21:44] like doesn't mean you should be like you

[21:46] know somewhere in the chain of command

[21:48] not you know everyone who's loyal thinks

[21:49] they should be you know the Secretary of

[21:51] State or you know it doesn't always work

[21:53] that way guys I love you but like let's

[21:55] be real uh you know now we know where

[21:57] that concentric Circle is and putting

[21:59] these people into those positions uh is

[22:02] so powerful I think again you see the

[22:04] reaction from the swamp both the

[22:05] Democrats and even some of the

[22:06] establishment Republicans when they saw

[22:08] this going on they're losing their minds

[22:11] because they understand this is the one

[22:12] true threat to their hegemony uh I think

[22:15] in in hindsight they're looking back and

[22:16] be like you know what we should have

[22:17] just let it go Joe Biden didn't exactly

[22:20] do a lot for the Democrat Party uh

[22:22] running Camala Harris in sort of a coup

[22:25] probably didn't do a lot for the

[22:26] Democrat Party I think it actually done

[22:27] us a lot of favors opened up a lot of

[22:29] eyes to the insanity uh to the lies they

[22:33] were able to cover that up so much more

[22:35] effectively than in past that's done and

[22:37] so you know I'm actually like the most

[22:39] grateful guy that we actually did it

[22:42] this way uh than just had an eight-year

[22:45] straight term because I think what we

[22:47] can do now is exponential what we can do

[22:49] now uh you know could forever change the

[22:53] game and that that's something that's

[22:54] grossly needed
