He's definitely bold.
I guess I just also put a lot of value on the way that you present things and the way that you make people feel with the words you say. And like... Speaking, like words, like the Bible talks about speaking life with your words, and I feel like Donald Trump often does not speak life with his words. And I get your point, like it's all about action, like actions speak louder than words.
Words matter, but actions matter more. Words isn't biblical, which kind of is the, like that doesn't represent what you feel like morality in the way that countries should be dictated.
Okay.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
Well, I don't even know if it's worth clarifying, Charlie, because I was on a different show on the Benny Johnson show, and I was just given a lay of the land on Ed Martin, just saying, you know, the situation we're running up against, it's going to be difficult. You know, I was very positive when we were talking about Pete, we were talking about Tulsi, Bobby, Cash.
I said from the get-go, every time we talked, we will get them across the finish line. My job is to understand the feel of the conference, to understand where everybody's at. And I was very, very straight on the show by saying, hey, it's going to be difficult. I'm not sure we can get it done. I'm not saying we can't, but it's not definitely a sure thing.
a sure deal just because some hard feelings from people about some of his comments on January 6th. That didn't reflect mine. I mean, there was people that was absolutely scared to death on January 6th. I never felt like I was ever going to die. It wasn't the most dramatic period of my life ever. But I think somebody just took it out of context. However, you know me as good as anybody.
I stand solid with President Trump. I haven't wavered a bit.
been pushing his nominees all the time and the president wanted to continue to push ed martin we would continue to push until that until we ran out of steam in this case i think honestly ed might have found a better position by putting him in special counsel i mean i think you said something about this um lives be careful what you wish for because he's going to be uncovering your dirty secrets
If she becomes the choice the president pushed for, more than likely she will be. I don't see any reason why she shouldn't just fly right on through. I think what's going to be her biggest holdup is the paperwork. You're familiar with the paperwork. The paperwork process.
Yes. Oh, Beth, I like that. I'm going to use that from now on. But it is it's it takes forever. So she'll have to stay in this position for a little bit. But I don't think there's going to be any problem confirming her at all. I mean, we did just a real quick what you call opposition research just to make sure we wasn't missing anything. And she is she's solid.
I mean, obviously, she said a lot of stuff that the libs are going to blow out of proportion. But I don't think there's any issue at all getting her confirmed.
First of all, the president's approach was spot on by not trying to do one country at a time, but by doing all countries at a time, putting everybody on notice. Otherwise, you would just play whack-a-mole. Every time he worked a deal out with somebody else, they would just went around you by getting another country involved. to bring their product into the United States.
By the president focusing on everybody at once, putting everybody on notice and then telling the UK he wanted them to be first in, he delivered a trade deal that everybody else is gonna start looking to. You're gonna start seeing the dominoes fall now. Keep in mind, people need to do business with the United States more than we need to do business with them. Our economy has stood up.
Europe has stood up. The UK has stood up. China, all of Asia, and a lot of countries in Africa because of different wars around the world over different times. And we have subsidized them. Literally, we have sent trillions of dollars out of our economy and pushed their way. We've allowed manufacturing jobs to leave.
And President Trump's the first president to ever have truly the backbone to say we're going to do something and shake up things. What happened yesterday? The market responded ridiculously well. You're going to continue to see these trade deals come back in, and everybody in Oklahoma knew that.
Now, you take the left media, and they're going to tell you the doomsday is – and everything's falling and we're in recession. They sure didn't report about yesterday about how good the market did and about everybody reversing their comments about we're headed to a recession.
But in Oklahoma, even as I traveled around the state, even as I talked to my constituents, I'm telling you, they all appreciated President Trump because we knew where he was going. And if anybody's going to deal, they can.
I hate raising taxes, to be honest with you. D.C. doesn't need any more taxes up here. We need to figure out how to control our spending. But if you want to break this down, right now that top bracket is around 37%. What they're proposing is going to 39.4 or 39.8, so might as well say 40%. What that is for, it's not necessarily – to change the brackets below us.
