Hey, Charlie. During the 2016 Republican primary, when Trump got booed on stage, he famously said that's all his donors and special interests. And the only reason that they're not loving him was because he doesn't want their money, but rather wanted to do what's best for the American people.
He also tweeted out in 2015, Sheldon Adelson is looking to give big dollars to Rubio because he feels he can mold him into his perfect little puppet. I agree. In 2024, not only has Trump appointed little Marco as his secretary of state, but has also accepted $100 million in political contributions from the widow of the very same donor who he called out in 2015. Miriam Adelson. Miriam Adelson.
If the foundation of MAGA was to be a raw, authentic movement in the face of overwhelming establishment corruption, why did Trump accept hundreds of millions of dollars in political contributions from mega donors?
And we won. In 2015, he financed it himself. He was self-funded.
That's right, yeah.
To some extent, yeah. Okay. To what extent are you not happy he won? I think he doesn't represent the same thing that he represented in 2015. Tell me why. In 2015, he represented a political outsider. He was not the establishment. He was a stark contrast from the establishment. He was opposing Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, the Bushes.
Of course.
Of course he's an outsider from the previous administration, the Biden administration. But he's not really the same Trump that he was in 2015. I think he's better. He's better?
Really?
What happened to the wall?
No, I'm talking about the border wall that Trump promised he would build in 2015.
11,000.
Again, I really got to hone in on he didn't really he he didn't promise during the campaign that he'd build the wall in 2024. His campaign never talked about building the wall.
Well, it just seems like he's a different Trump than the Trump in 2020.
My evidence is that, my original question, he took hundreds of millions of dollars and he didn't build the wall.
I'm not talking about border crossings.
Will he build the wall?
Thank you so much.
Yes. How's it going, Charlie? Good. How are you? Good. My name is Camden. I've been a supporter for you for a long time. And I have a quick question or two quick questions. The first one is why are colleges getting so much more liberal in this generation specifically? And what can we do about that?
Yes.
Very.
Yes.
I'm in an economics of women at work class, and I'm like the only one in the class.
And it was required. It was required. And I'm the only pretty much conservative in the class that believes that the gender pay gap is a myth.
But they're so stern on grading as if there is one. So if I say something that's against that, then I'm graded differently.
Way too much.
I have a bright future, so it's different for me.
Around 20.
Yeah, really quick. Okay, so I'm a Christian and I'm pro-life, right? And... There's a lot of conservatives who also believe in the death penalty, but my question is how can you believe in the death penalty and also be pro-life?
Can I counter?
So Paul killed Christians before he wrote 13 books of the Bible. So how do we handle that?
Thank you. And then appreciate it. Yeah. Since I don't have a lot of time, I have more time to ask more questions. Can I get you on my podcast in the future? Maybe. All right. Here's my hat.
