how the Democrats are able to remove Joe Biden, literally in a coup, a back room coup, and install Kamala Harris in a matter of hours or days and avoid any convention like real democracy taking place where people are debating their candidates and where they're at. And then to your other question, that's wrong, but your other question was, Joe Biden, was there a coverup?
A cover-up is when you don't see it, when you don't know about it, when you're totally unaware. This wasn't a cover-up. This was a conspiracy. Everybody in this town for four years watched when he came in. He was already diminished and watched him continue to diminish over the course of his term. It was the mainstream media that refused to actually comment on it.
And then it was amazing overnight when he has the debate last year and it's like, oh my gosh, this is terrible. Look at this. And suddenly it was like, they'd never seen it before. This was a conspiracy by a left-wing media that they're littered with people who have a partisan view and they write about it. They create stories about it and they don't tell you the whole story. If you were here.
Yeah, I know. But I can tell you what I watch. What I watch is corruption. There were two times that they literally, whoever they are, it would be the superdelegates. A lot of people would say it's the Obamas. It's the Clintons. It's the, you know, original.
Elected or otherwise that runs a Democratic Party a lot of people would point to the Obama's and then some of these Super donors is that sort of your perception of how it works it is and the reason I go back as you'll remember Bernie Sanders is marching towards the Democratic nomination and they get to South Carolina and all of a sudden Amy Klobuchar from my state It's just one after another I'm out.
I'm out. I support Joe Biden clearly the Whoever that is, because you're right, we're not in the room to see, is it the Obamas? Is it consultants like Carville or Axelrod or whoever? Who is in that room? But whoever's in that room, they have a plan when it gets to the end. And I never thought Joe Biden was going to be the candidate.
No.
Yeah, no. I would say that. Watching from the outside, again, we're not on the inside of the Democrat machine, but watching from the outside, that's a top-down process. On the Republican side, that's a bottom-up process. And Donald Trump is the best example of it.
Because people in this town, especially in the house where I serve, are like, we got the American people. We have a mandate. And you've got to remind them, yeah, no. No. No, Donald Trump has a mandate. He got 77 million votes. We got a little less than 75 million. So if you're looking at who literally is expanding this party and pulling this party over the line, It's one guy. It's Donald Trump.
I can only tell you the experience I've had with one of my Minnesota colleagues who, I won't name him, but he might have run against the sitting president. We were talking on the House floor one day, and I was complaining to him, or giving him a hard time, I should say, about some of the off-color remarks coming from the squad. And he made a point of telling me... Off-color how?
Well, let's just say there were some anti-Semitic comments all about the Benjamins, this stuff. And there was a censure that was being worked on. Oh, wow. Yeah. And it was public. But the point is, when I was saying, boy, you've had quite a week, he goes, oh, yeah. He says, that's a very small group of people in our party with very large voices.
And my response to him was, OK, well, that might be true, but... then people like you have to stand up and speak up and take my grandfather's Democrat Party back.
And so, no, I think they've got a problem. Identity politics, which they've perfected and been playing for years, it has now come back to bite them. And there's, where is the way out? They don't have a brand. They don't know who they are. They're fighting about things like men participating in women's sports. I mean, It just it isn't resonating with the American people.
So they're going to have to figure that out for the future. But on our side, we're going to have to figure out Donald Trump is the one that pulled this across the line. Here's the problem with the Republican Party for me.
The last 30 years, we've had great people representing us, but the public has been very frustrated because it seems like government and the bureaucrats always get a better deal than the average citizen in this country. We're talking about Main Street.
We're not talking about Silicon Valley, which has its own Main Street, but I'm talking about just good old Main Street, USA, where it's rural country. It's people who are just trying to live their lives. They feel like their government hasn't been listening to them for years. This is what's on the Tea Party. This is why we've had this over and over. And Donald Trump, you got to give him credit.
This energy was out there and he actually grabbed it. And he showed us what it looked like when he ran in 16 and got elected.
Or he just innately has an ability to read people better than I've ever seen. Yeah.
A generational? I think he's a one in 150 year leader. Yeah. Yeah.
So I'd rather, let's do it two ways. I'd rather look at what could we put on the table? And we do this privately. So you won't get me to say, What it is, where it is. But I'll tell you, there's a list that we've sat down with that reaches somewhere between five and seven trillion. A year? Over the next 10 years. Okay. That's what that two trillion would be over the next 10 years. Okay.
