Welcome in his verdict with Center, Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson with you Center. We have got a lot to talk about, including some shocking economic numbers that are telling a large percentage of Americans that home ownership may not be attainable for you under the Biden administration's Bidenomics.
Well, the reality of Bidenomics is coming home to roost for a lot of people, and the latest stats are showing that more than half of Americans are no longer in a position to afford a median priced home. It is stunning, and it is imposing real harms on real Americans. We also have the latest stats of what's happening at the border and in particular a Chinese invasion under Joe Biden. The number of Chinese nationals crossing the border is skyrocketing
under Joe Biden, going up and up and up. We're going to break all that down, and finally we're going to talk about Robert F. Kennedy Junior, and in particular, he went on CNN. CNN through him what they thought would be just softball to say Trump is horrible at a threat to democracy, and Robert F. Kennedy Junior shocked CNN by saying no, actually, he thought there was a very serious argument that Joe Biden was a much greater
threat to democracy than Donald Trump. We're going to break that down as well.
Before we get to all that, I want to talk to you about what you can do to help people in Israel. Right now, we all know about the atrocities that were committed by Hamaslaks last October the seventh, which kicked off a vicious war. As Israel is defending herself from terraces now on every side. The toll on the Israeli people is real. It is staggering, and it's massive. Hundreds of thousands of Israelis have been forced from their homes.
Entire communities torn apart, lives have been devastated by death and destruction and war. The International Fellowship of Christian and Jews, known as IFCJ, is right there in the middle of it.
Each and every day.
They are distributing right now critical essentials like food, medicine, and emergency supplies for hundreds of thousands of suffering Jews that have been displaced. The need is great, and that's why I am partnering with IFCJ today and I want you to get involved in help. I want you to visit support IFCJ dot org to help. Every donation is urgently need to help the people of Israel.
A lot of people who said, how can I help?
This is how you can help to give the International Fellowship of Christian and Jews. All you have to do is go to support IFCJ dot org and give as generously as you can, because your gift will be matched to double in impact and help provide twice the support. Right now again, that's support IFCJ dot org, Support IFCJ dot org. Thank you and God bless Senator. Let's talk
about this shocking new data that's come out. Fox News kind of broke it and they said America now need an annual salary of at least one hundred and ten thousand to afford a medium price home. That is up from about seventy four thousand in twenty twenty.
That is staggering.
Yeah, it's a dramatic shift. And this is Bidenomics is hurting Americans across this country and it's hurting virtually everyone. It's hurting seniors. Seniors are getting hammered by bidenmics because inflation is driving up the cost of living the cost of everything they're spending, and yet they're on a fixed income. But Bidenomics is also really hammering young people, young couples that are buying their first home. They're facing the simple reality you come out to get your first home. You're
all excited. You want to have a home, you want to raise a family, and they're discovering both home prices have risen dramatically under Joe Biden, but also interest rates. Young people, many young people of people in their twenties, even people in their thirties have never known inflation. They've never known what it was because we've been living in a little bit of a holiday from history where inflation
hasn't existed. And suddenly people buying their first home, or for that matter, their second or third or fourth home as they progress in life, are discovering that the home they used to be able to get at a two and a half percent interest rate, now they can get half as much home at a seven percent interest rate. And that is meaning a lot of people are not
able to buy homes. They're locked into whatever home they're at because they need the interest rates low, and those rates are locked in although they have an adjustable rate mortgage. A number of those are headed towards expiring, which is putting people at a fiscal cliff. But they're also finding if it's your first home. A whole lot of people just home ownership is beyond their reach. And the median
price home. Look, it's worth refreshing some basic math. There are a number of different ways to think of averages. There's the mean, which is the average. You take all the all the different prices and you average them together, and the average price is if there's one that's one hundred million and a bunch that are lower, the average will rise higher because of the one. The median is a very different measure. It's not the average price, but
it's rather the middle price, the midpoint price. So the median price means half the prices are higher and half the prices or no are lower. So it's identifying the highest point on the bell curve. And what is striking And we're going to play right now what Fox News said about this. The median priced home is now significantly above the median salary, and that is meaning for many Americans home ownership, particularly if you don't have a home already, is being priced out of reach by Joe Biden.
The average home buyer needs to make over one hundred and ten thousand dollars to afford the average home. A new Bank Rate study showing that the required salary to make that purchase has jumped forty six percent in just four years. Home Buyers only needed to make seventy six thousand back in twenty twenty, and the issue widespread. You now need a six figure salary to buy the average home in twenty three states, including the District of Columbia.
Four years ago, that number was just six. Mortgage rates, of course, have played a small role in the bump, but home prices have by and large kept pace with the needed salary to buy them. The average home up forty two percent, sitting at four hundred and twelve thousand dollars now. Even though the housing market may be pricing people out, people shouldn't be too quick to think that renting is the solution. Since President Biden took office, rents are up nearly twenty one percent.
You look at the rent numbers there, and let's just go through some of those data points real quick.
Center.
You look at your salary, and if you look at your salary January twenty twenty, they said you need seventy nine and thirty nine dollars to afford the met price home. Now you need one hundred and ten eight hundred and seventy one dollars. That is a forty six percent increase. As the average American have they've received a forty six percent raise in the last four years, the answer is going to be no.
Well, that's exactly right. And you know, forty six percent is a stunning number because Joe Biden has been president barely a little bit over three years, three years and three months. That's not very long. Three years and three months to have home prices go up forty six percent, that is a massive impact on people trying to purchase
a home. And and listen, seventy six thousand dollars is a lot of money that that is, but comparatively going from seventy six thousand to one hundred and eleven thousand dollars in three and a half less than three and a half years, that is the very real impact of Joe Biden the Democrats printing trillions of dollars we don't have, and it is her Americans across this country, as home ownership is getting less and less affordable.
You also look in there they were talking about and just again it's a prospective issue. Here states where you needed six figure salaries are more to afford a home January twenty twenty only six states. Now this is spread nationwide, twenty three different states, but the district of Columbia you've got to make now more than six figures plus to afford home ownership. That is Bidenomics hitting everybody across this country.
Well, and ben you know who doesn't care about this. Democrats. So one of the most important political shifts. It used to be conventional wisdom that the Republicans of the Party of the rich and Democrats of the Party of the poor and working class. That's been turned on its head. I think the most significant political shift of the last decade is today Democrats of the Party of the rich. So if you talk to Democrats, I don't know a Democrat senator who cares about this because, frankly, who are
they listening to. They're listening to big tech billionaires. They're listening to the super wealthy lawyers and Hollywood producers. They are the hedge fund party that is the Democrats today, And you know who they're not the Party of any more steel workers, truck drivers, cops, firefighters, teachers, waiters, waitresses, working men and women. The Democrat Party has abandoned, they've left behind, and so the people they're getting hammered by this.
And by the way, young people and Democrats want to convince young people, hey, we're all for you because because we're just going to focus on social issues. And listen, if you're young, the Democrats tell you, the only thing you should care about is transgenderism. Apparently it is the most important issue on planet Earth. Not a homicidal iatola trying to murder us, not an invasion at our southern border, not the fentanyl crisis and the drug overdoses. None of
those are the problem. Transgenderism is the issue that you, as a young person, should care about intensely. Well, you know what, there are a lot of young people like maybe you're in college and you buy that nonsense, But then you get out of school and you're like, wait a second, I got to pay for an apartment. How much is rent? Again?
Wait?
Rent? I can't afford rent. And by the way, look that Fox News story was really striking. If people can't afford to buy a home and they can't afford to rent. Well, that's kind of a problem. What are they supposed to do? What's the alternative to those two things? And it is the working men and women who bid nomics is leaving behind in the dust.
Yeah, twenty percent plus. Rent at rates are up on average nationwide. Well, I've never said this before, Center, but the Fox News story that we played was actually the best way of prison the problem. Yahoo Finance came out and said it's actually worse than the way they reported on Fox. Here is what they said when it came to home buyers. They actually said, in reality, home buyers need to earn eighty percent more than they did in
twenty twenty to afford a home in today's market. If you're looking at overall home prices, listen to this from Yahoo Finance.
Manny Americans, home ownership is seeming more and more out of reach. According to new analysis from Zillow, home prices have jumped forty two percent since twenty twenty, but the average person needs to earn eighty percent more than they did at that time in order to comfortably afford a home in today's market.
Center, It's interesting how they looked at this. They're saying, there are different ways to look at it. They look at it as the issue of can you comfortably afford a home in today's market. To comfortably afford a home in today's market, they say you need to earn eighty percent more than you did in twenty twenty because of the skyrocketing cost the home, interest rates, inflation, and everything else. So they're saying, hey, it's even worse than what the
best case scenario data shows you. Hear, and they said, quote, today, those shopping for a home need to earn one hundred and six thousand annually to afford a medium price home. But this is the part that you don't understand. The cost of insurance, the cost of heating, the cost of everything when you own a home has gone up so much more that you need to earn eighty percent more than you did in twenty twenty.
Well, that's right, and it's striking. It makes you ask why would the Democrats be doing this? Listen, The classic question in any election is are you better off now than you were four years ago? And for the overwhelming majority of Americans, the answer to that is hell no. That under Joe Biden, people who are who are working class people who are seniors, people who are young, people who are struggling, people are getting started, people who want to a home, people who want to rent. All of
them their life has gotten much harder. And you know, it reminds me of what we talked about two days ago on Monday's Pod, which is California. This week on Monday imposed a new twenty dollars minimum wage for fast food restaurants with more than sixty sixty stores. Now. One of the things that striking California exempted Panera Breads, which just happens to be owned by a very close friend
of the governor, Gavin Newsom. So it's a classic example of Democrats, you know, cronyism, that they will give special gifts to their buddies who happen to be big campaign contributors, and everyone else has different rules. But what we saw this week is thousands and thousands and thousands of Californians being laid off because of this new law imposed by the Democrats. Just Pizza Hut, there were over twelve hundred
people laid off. And you know, last night I was having dinner with a number of friends and they were asking, why would the Democrats do this? Wouldn't they understand, wouldn't people in California get pissed off? And what I told them then, and this is actually highly relevant to the home ownership question. What I told my friends who are having dinners, I said, listen, they're making a gamble that enough of the voters will not understand who is to blame.
So they're over five hundred thousand fast food employees in California. A bunch of them will get a pay raise. The ones that don't get laid off, the ones whose employers don't go bankrupt and go out of business. The rest of them will get a pay raise. By the way, people who get a pay raise are likely the ones that are more highly skilled. The ones who will lose their jobs are likely more likely to be teenagers. Many of them are low income, many of them are African American,
many of them are Hispanic. They're the ones just getting started in their careers. They're the ones who get devastated by Democrats. But I explained, I said, look, the people getting free stuff the Democrats are gambling politically. They'll be grateful. Hey, the Democrats gave me free stuff. I like free stuff. That's good. And the people getting screwed. The Democrats are gambling, they will not understand who it is is screwing them.
And in fact, the Democrats plan when it comes to California is just demogogue their employers and say, your mean old employer just hates you, and that's why they laid you off, Not because I the Democrat priced you out of the market and made it impossible for them to
stay in business and pay you the new wage I manded. Well, the same is true with the higher price of home ownership, which is the Democrats plan is they're assuming a lot of the voters will not connect the crazy multi trillion dollar spending spree that Joe Biden the Democrats went on with the inflation and with the higher interest rates, And in fact they'll do the same thing they do with
fast food. They will demagogue, in this case the big back at homemakers, the big bad banks that are making mortgages because you know, it's just a bank being mean that they're charging seven percent they really should charge two percent. Never Mind, the Fed has increased rates over and over and over and over again because the Democrats have printed
trillions of dollars in new money. What the Democrats are cynically planning on is number one, a fair number of voters being economically illiterate, not understanding supply and demand, not understanding who's to blame. And number two, they want to contribute to that by blaming people who did not impose these policies. And that's what we're seeing happening across the country.
Inflation we've just talked about is heavily eroding our purchasing power and putting your savings, your retirement accounts, and your future legacy at real risk. With more taxes, the continuous threat of war, a national debt now exceeding thirty four trillion dollars, and the push for central bank digital currencies, our financial freedom is really at stake.

Was some news that was broken.
My Fox News bmlusion does one heck of a job reporting on what's actually happening at the southern border, and the new border patrol numbers are out, specifically when it comes to the arrest of Chinese nationals who cross the US border illegally over the recent years, and when you compare what is happening now to what's happened in the past, there is a clear Chinese national explosion of illegals coming across the border, and this administration seems to not care at all.
No, that's exactly right. And I will say Bill Malujan at Fox is doing an incredible job reporting at the border. He is doing, frankly, the best job of any reporter there is, and most of the rest of the media doesn't report at all. So CNN apparently has no reporters. They don't report at the border crisis. ABCNBCCBS, they have
no reporters, they don't report on the border crisis. NBC actually hires no Republicans, no one who voted for Donald Trump, so apparently their viewers don't want to know what's happening at the border crisis. But let's just look at the numbers FIS school year twenty twenty one, do you know how many Chinese nationals were arrested crossing the border illegally?
How many?
Three hundred and forty two. So that's look three hundred forty two. That's three hundred forty two too many, but that sounds like a manageable number. The next year, fiscal year twenty twenty two, it goes from three hundred and forty two to one thousand, nine hundred and eighty seven. Now that's a big jump, three hundred forty two to one thousand, nine hundred eighty seven.
Wow.
Joe Biden came in office and suddenly instead of three hundred and forty two, you have nearly two thousand Chinese nationals. Big jump. But even so, I'm not sure two thousand Chinese nationals is crisis level. Let's go to fiscal year twenty twenty three. It goes from one thousand, nine hundred and eighty seven. Do you know where it goes? Next year twenty twenty three, where's it go to twenty four thousand,
one hundred and twenty five. Wow, So it goes from less than two thousand to twenty four thousand and one and twenty five, And how about fiscal year twenty twenty four. We're halfway through fiscal year twenty twenty four, so if we were on the same pace as fiscal year twenty twenty three, which is twenty four thousand, you'd expect halfway through about twelve thousand, right, sure, you know how much?
How many have Chinese nationals have been apprehended at the border in the first six months of fiscal year twenty twenty four.
I'm genuinely afraid, just because I've seen the other numbers, and I'm assuming it's going to probably even double what it's gonna end up looking like from last.
Year twenty two thousand, two hundred and thirty three. By the way, since this is halfway through the fiscal year, if you double that, that means we're on pace for forty four almost forty five thousand Chinese nationals now since fiscal year twenty twenty one. That is a six thousand, three hundred percent increase. Now, last I checked, Ben and I don't have a globe in front of me, so maybe I'm wrong, But China is not immediately to our south, is it?
No, it is not.
It is really far away across the Pacific Ocean, nowhere near our southern border. And yet we've got a massive invasion. And by the way, I've been down at the border, I've seen at the board. I was down in Brownsville last year. When I was down in Brownsville, and at the time, we were seeing a massive Chinese influx coming across there. And most of the Chinese nationals that were coming were military age men. They were young men, mostly in their twenties, some in their thirties, young single men.
They didn't have wives, they didn't have kids, they were just there. Now, the last I checked, having fifty thousand military age men from communist China should be a big damn deal.
And yet well, and the reason why you say that so people understand is the intelligence is overwhelming that China does a really good job of getting spies in this country. They also get a really good they do a really good job of bringing in people that are going to come in and still technologies and still I mean countless. China is the masters of stealing everything that we do, and they do this all over the world. But if you have that many coming across, the question is what
are they offloading from this country? What are they stealing when it comes just to trades and secrets and manufacturing, The list could go on and on.
Well, that's right, and those are the numbers just of the arrests. You put on top of that the god aways. So the vast majority of people at the southern border come and turn themselves in, They go look for a border patrol agent. They turn themselves in because they know Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the Democrats will let them stay. But there's also a different group that are called god aways, and they're the ones that don't turn
themselves in. They're the ones that we're aware of. We see footprints, we see them moving, but they get away. The god Aways are the most dangerous group. They are much more likely to be criminals. They're much more likely to be murderers and rapists and child molesters. They're much more likely to be gang thirteen, and they're much much
much more likely to be terrorist. If you're a Hamas terrorists, if you're a hesbela terrorist, if you're coming to try to commit mass murder in the United States and you're on the terror watch list, you're not likely to turn yourself into the border patrol. You're going to be or you're going to try to be a got away. Now you know what Bill Malujin reported on April first, How many got aways do you think we're recorded at the border the previous day on March thirty first?
Give it to me. I gotta know.
Nine hundred and nineteen in one day, in one single day. Now, those are Goda ways we know of. By the way, there are additional godaways we don't know of. The got away measure is we're aware of them, we have some indication they were there, but they got away. So the real number of people across the illegally who got away is going to be substantially higher than nine hundred nineteen. But those are the known god aways. Do you know what the seven day average of known god aways and non is important?
What is it?
Seven hundred and sixty one per day? Good, every day, day after day after day the seven day.
I know these numbers. They know these numbers.
These are from the Biden administration, This is from Border Patrol. These are their numbers. That's just the media doesn't report on them. And so I want you to think Hamas has called for jahad against the United States. Palestinian Islamic Jahad has called for jahad against the United States. Hesbelah has called for jahad against the United States. The Iranian
Ayahtola has called for jahad against the United States. Does it give you comfort that in the last week, seven hundred and sixty one known god aways got away day after day after day, and how many of those were terrorists seeking to commit mass murder in this country that Joe Biden the Democrats do not care about and are doing nothing to stop.
And the question I have for you sooner is is this because illegal immigrants are understanding that, hey, this window may close if Joe Biden doesn't win reelection, and so they're saying, hey, hurry up and get your tail here. Because it seems to be the numbers, as you just describe them, are increasing significantly.
In any country on Earth. If you send fifty thousand of your nationals to invade that country, that is an invasion, and it's a military invasion. Well you know what we just described. How on fiscal year twenty twenty four, that's the pace China is on to have sent fifty thousands of their nationals to invade this country illegally, and they are aided and embedded by Joe Biden, the Democrats, who not only are doing nothing to stop them, but are
doing everything they can to facilitate their coming. When they show up, what does Biden do? He lets them go, he lets them stay. And so you know what you do if you're communist China, you send even more.
It's incredible. And this is the threat, as you described it, national security.
That's the thing that keeps me up.
And my final question for you in this is my biggest concern is not is no longer than the numbers that are coming in. My biggest concern, Senator, is the number of people that are coming in that are that are wanting to do harm to this country. And I'm talking about terrorists coming into this country. We have no idea who's getting into this country right now.
Ben I've said this many times and it makes me sad to say it, but I think we have the greatest risk of a major terrorist attack right now that we have had at any point since September eleventh, two thousand and one. And sadly, I believe we are living on borrow time that it's only a matter of time when you have feckless democrats open up our border to this invasion day after day after day, week after week,
month after month, year after year. The volumes are getting so great that it is inevitable that that that that Americans are going to.
Lose their lives.
We've already seen the victims of crimes because Joe Biden released murderers, released rapists, for East child molesters, released vicious criminals into this country. It is releasing them every day. We've already seen those body bags tragically piling up, and I tremble to think about when terrorism kicks in and those body bags. I hope and pray this is not
the case, but they could well increase dramatically. And every day that goes by that you let more and more potential terrorists in this country, the odds of those attacks go up.
Yeah.
And we know for a fact we're letting terrorists in because we're catching some of them and many of them that are on the terrorist watch lists. A record number in the last three months of the fiscal year. We're proof of that that we just witness and that's coming from the Biden administration. I want to ask you a question real quick. If you're listening right now, how mad would you be if I told you that you were
making donations to Planned Parenthood every month? How mad would you be if I told you were giving donations to democratic causes and candidates nation. Well, if you're a Big Mobile, that's exactly what you are doing. You may not realize it, but they take your bill when you pay that bill, and they are giving huge donations to hardcore leftist causes, organizations, candidates, including Plan Parenthood. That is why I want you to know about Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile is the only conservative
Christian cell phone provider in the nation. They've been doing it for over ten years, and they got started because they were sick and tired of what Big Mobile was doing. Now, look, I switched to Patriot Mobile, and I can tell you the coverage is amazing. Now, that's the number one reason why people actually don't make the switch. They're afraid their coverage isn't going to be good.
Well, guess what.
Patriot Mobile uses the same three networks that the big guys use, and that means you get the same coverage that you're used to right now without funding the wokes
left agenda. I want you to take a look at Patriot Mobile because when you pay your bill every month at no extra cost to you, they actually take about five percent of that bill and give it back to conservative causes that support the sanctity of life, support freedom of speech, or Second Amendment that support conservative causes and organizations. That is why I love Patriot Mobile. It's why I'm proud to be partnering with them, and it's why I
have Patriot Mobile as my provider. So check them out. Nine to seven to two Patriot is the number. That's nine seven two Patriot nine seven to two Patriot or Patriotmobile dot com slash verdict.

I want to talk about our RFK or CNN decide to have him on, and they thought they were giving him a softball question that was going to be easy, and he's going to rip on Donald Trump. Tee it up from there because it didn't go the way they thought it was going.
To go at all.
Well, that's exactly right. CNN tossed to RFK juniors a question that they thought RFK would say, Oh, yes, Trump is clearly the manifest threat to democracy, and so you really should vote for job Iiden instead. Well, RFK did not play along and listen to this exchange because CNN was astonished at what RFK had to say.
I sent too many issues. While I admire his high minded ideals, his suggestion that there's no difference between mister Ware and mister Bush is irresponsible. A moment ago, you said, you you essentially see Trump and Biden as saying different different issues. But do you really believe that when people talk about the threat to democracy that Trump poses, do you really think that that is is an equal Yeah, mull.
Biden, listen. I can make the argument that President Biden is a much worse threat to democracy. And the reason for that is President Biden is the first candidate in history, the first president in the history, that has used the federal agencies to censor political speech. So the censor's opponent, I, you know, I can say that because I just want a case in the Federal Court of Appeals and now
before the Supreme Court. It shows that he started censoring not just me, for thirty seven hours after he took the other office, he was censoring me. No president in the country has ever done that. The greatest threat democracy is not somebody who questions election returns, but a president of the United States who used the power of his office to force the social media companies Facebook, Instagram, Twitter to open a portal and give the access to that portal to.
The FBI, the CIA, the IRS.
De SISA, the NIH to censor his political critics. Because in Biden, for the first first president in history, used the secret his power over the Secret Service to deny Secret Service protection to one of his political opponents for political reasons. He's weaponizing a federal agencies. Those are really critical threats.
Tried to overturn a free and fair election. He tried to overturn one. Right, is he still finding how is that not a threat to democracy?
Well, I think that is a threat to democracy. Him over for trying to overthrow the election clearly is the threat democracy. But the question was who is the worse threat to democracy? And what I would say is, you know, I'm not going to answer that question, but I can argue that President Biden is because the First Amendment, Aaron
is the most important. But Adams and Hamilton and Madison said, we put the guarantee of freedom expression in the First Amendment because all of our other constitutional sides depend on it. If you ever go the can silence its opponent, it has license for any atrocity.
So, just to be clear, you're saying you could make an argument that President Biden is a worse threat to democracy than you.
Listen to that senator and it's like they're like, well, hold on, this is not what you're supposed to say. This is not you were supposed to say Donald Trump orange Man's bad and a threat to democracy. Obviously you weren't supposed to say Joe Biden's actually a bigger threat.
And by the way, explain exactly how he.
Is warning Will Robinson, warning Will Robinson, danger danger, danger aboard, run away, run away. That's what CNN is saying. They're losing their minds. No, know that that's not the message. The only message we allow on CNN is Trump bad, Trump bad, Trump bad. You're RFK JR. Your dad was RFK, your uncle was JFK. You're supposed to echo our message Trump, orange man bad, orange man bad. Look. I got to say listening to that, I agree with every single word.
Robert F. Kenn said right there, when it comes to a threat to democracy, number one, Joe Biden and for that matter, congressional Democrats are perfectly happy to use government power and big tech to censor you, to silence you, to prevent you from engaging in political speech, to prevent you from disagreeing with them. They want to use force
to silence you. Secondly, he pointed out, Joe Biden is disgracefully denying Robert F. Kennedy Junior Secret Service protection that despite the fact that he is clearly pulling at the thresholds that would bearret that protection, that he is facing significant threats of political violence against him, and the tragic
family history. His father was assassinated when he was running for president, his uncle was assassinated when he was president, and Joe Biden and the Democrats are cynical enough that they're willing to risk well, okay, if R. Fk Junior gets assassinated, that's a risk Joe Biden's willing to take. It is just dis graceful, and we've we've called that out on this on this podcast. Before that, of course,
Joe Biden should give our FK Secret Service protection. That's following the law, that is consistent with the law, it's consistent with precedent, and the only reason not to is pure partisan politics. Let me say something else. Look, I have conversations with people all the time. I have conversations with people today where they make comments about, Gosh, I'm worried if Trump wins. He's an authoritarian, he's a dictator. I'm worried what he will do. And you know, my
standard response is is listen, I understand that. And sometimes Trump has rhetoric that can be used to suggest that.
Uh.
That being said, we don't have to hypothesize what Trump will do as president. He was president for four years and if you look at the time he was president, he didn't abuse his power. He followed the law. If you look at the policies he implemented, and I worked hand in hand with Donald Trump, the policies he implemented worked. We saw the lowest unemployment race in fifty years. We saw the lowest African American unemployment ever recorded. We saw
the lowest Hispanic unemployment ever recorded. We saw peace and prosperity. We saw the border secured, we saw peace breaking out in the Middle East, and the Abraham Accords. All of that played out. And if you look at what Trump did, he didn't defy the law. He didn't ignore the law. He didn't issue lawless executive orders. He followed the law. Now, he demonstrated courage. He made decisions that were bold, but they were within the law. Contrast that to Joe Biden.
Joe Biden, number one is responsible for profoundly politicizing the Department of Justice of the FBI. Number two is responsible for the greatest assault on democracy we've ever seen, which is the four indictments of Donald Trump, the abuse of the legal process design. Mind you, Trump is not the target,
voters of the target. They're terrified the voters will vote for Trump, and they're trying to prosecute for the first time in history, and the second time in history, and the third time in history, and the fourth time in history, a former president and a leading presidential candidate because they want to stop democracy from playing out. To be clear, also, these are the same Democrats that in Colorado, in Illinois and Maine threw Donald Trump off the ballot because you know.
Nothing says defending democracy like stopping the damn voters from voting for the person you don't want them to. This is Democrats. And let's be clear also, Joe Biden when it comes to being a dictator to being lawless. Look at what he's doing on the southern border. He's utterly ignoring federal immigration law. He's releasing people into this country. He's releasing criminals into this country. He's endangering this country ten point four million illegal immigrants. It is lawless. No
president has ever done this. Barack Obama didn't do this. Bill Clinton didn't do this, Jimmy Carter didn't do this. Only Joe Biden is brazenly lawless. Let's be clear also when it came to student loans, Joe Biden trying to buy votes, tried to give away trillion dollars, a trillion dollars just in an effort to buy votes and win elections. Now, a president can't give away a trillion dollars without Congress passing legislation to do so. Joe Biden knows that the
lawyers of his administration know that they didn't care. They wanted to lawlessly be political, and so of course what happened to The Supreme Court struck it down and said, no, the president doesn't have the ability to give away a trillion dollars just to buy votes. By the way, same thing happened with COVID vaccine mandates, utterly lawless, abusive, trying to force people to get COVID vaccines. The president had
no authority to do it. Biden administration did so anyway, what happened The Supreme Court struck it down, said this is lawless, this is not the federal law. You look at who actually has been lawless and dictatorial, And I agree with RFK, there's a powerful argument. Bit the answer to that is Joe Biden and not Downald Donald J. Trump. And that makes CNN and every other corporate media entity their heads explode.
Yeah, it was.
