Kelsey Grammer Reveals All (Pt 2): Lessons on Love, Loss, Healing & Remembering

Yeah, I did, yeah. A lot of what Donald Trump was saying just aligned more with what I think about the direction a government should take, that it should be for the people. I do believe he means that. And so that's... In demonstration, I've seen that... That's what a lot of politicians say, but... The people yelling and screaming about money and stuff like that tend to be politicians.

And I'm thinking, why are you so upset? What is it you're losing? Why are you a rich person in Congress? I have real issues about that. I think if you can go to Washington rich, fine. But if you got rich being in Washington, you should be out. Adios. It was designed to be, you go for one term as a congressman, one.

Some guy from the neighborhood goes for two years and comes back and some other guy goes. Or gal, whatever, whomever. And you don't stay there. And you go be a senator, great, go for six years. Maybe you're a little wiser, maybe a little bit older. You know, the energy of Congress, of the House of Representatives is immediate in the moment and what people need right then.

And the senators are meant to say, well, let's slow down a little bit. Let's think about it. And maybe that's a good idea. Maybe it isn't. Maybe we need to balance it with this. Okay. That made sense to me. You get to stay for one term. And George Washington stayed for two. That was it. Executive branch. A little guidance.

Yeah, you can appoint judges for a lifetime because that's what they're good at. Okay. And they balance it in terms of squaring things with the originalist vision of what it is. And that's all for the people. I walked into Washington, D.C. recently for the dedication of the World War I monument. And it's a beautiful, beautiful piece. It took them over 100 years to do it, to get one there.

And they've done other monuments for other wars that I was celebrating the sacrifice. But when I walked, I took five minutes to walk from the hotel I was in to go over to where the presentation was being made. Three people in five minutes walked up to me and handed me a card and said, hi, I'm a lobbyist. And I just thought, you do not belong here. I mean, I have some real issues about it.

I don't like it. Whenever the car turns off and I'm standing still at a red light, I'm thinking, what congressman got this passed? What guy is making money on this? Because somebody got paid to do this. Because when I grew up, they said if your car stops and restarts all the time, you're just spending more fuel. So I thought, who conned them into thinking this is saving money?

Why do we have 10% corn fuel in our gasoline? Who from the Corn Belt made some money on that? So I look on big government with a real jauntest eye.

Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's... I think there's definitely an older man's game in Washington, D.C. that I think needs to be played well, wisdom being the important asset that you would bring. But if you're worried about, yeah, if there's something on the table, if there's a kickback coming, I mean, we are finding out, of course, now through a lot of people that there's some

There's some stuff been going on that isn't good. And I'm very glad that Donald Trump is there at this point, sort of engineering at least an uncovering of that. Whether or not we're going to cover it all back up and go back to it, I fear that that might happen. But I do fear that that's the end of the U.S. And I don't want that to happen.
