Why is James Fishback running for Florida Governor?
So you're running for governor of Florida. Why are you doing that? I'm doing it because I love my state. I'm a fourth generation Floridian. And I got to tell you, Tucker, it's really hard to be an American in America these days. It's really hard for Floridians who quite literally put the state on the map. They're not being forced out of the state because they can't afford to live here anymore. All while illegal immigrants still get the free stuff from the Biden years. All while H-1B still come into our state and take jobs that belong to Americans here in Florida. And then I think the last straw was this idea of Washington, D.C. negotiating a trade deal with China.
How is Florida's economy being sabotaged?
And then 600,000 foreign students are going to come to our universities, maybe a third of them to Florida colleges where their taxpayer funded universities are going to have to give up their seats from Florida kids from Charlotte County or Lee County to kids from Shanghai and Beijing. It didn't make any sense. And so I'm running because I'm the only. That's literally true.
What are the implications of Randy Fine and Ron DeSantis's anti-free speech laws?
Literally. That's part of the current framework, this bilateral framework between the US and China right now is that DC is now as a concession to the Chinese in this tariff war that we're going to have to accept 600,000 Chinese foreign students at our schools.
And you think you're getting 200,000 in Florida? We could get 200,000 here in Florida.
they would go to state that's so university of florida florida state ucf usf now i think it's easy to get lost in all those numbers but just take one kid from a small fishing village in florida and say hold on your ability to go to a horticulture program at the university of florida has now been put on pause. Your entire life has been shelved because we need to have a grand negotiating strategy with China and tariffs and the AI arms race. It's destroying lives here in Florida. It's just the latest analogy of we're losing sight of what the American
first movement. So that's for sure. So that means, I mean, I guess this is all obvious, but I haven't talked it through or really thought it through. So that would mean that there's no preference given to the American born whose family has been paying taxes to support the school. And I should say in Florida, the best schools in Florida are public universities. That's right. The largest and the best. Right. So University of Florida, number one.
Is Byron Donalds truly independent in his political stance?
I think. I don't want to get in trouble. But I mean, it's like hardest to get into. So it's not like they're all going to go to some boutique liberal arts college and pay a hundred grand a year to Middlebury or something. They're going to be taking spots at the public universities that are there to serve the children of taxpayers of Florida. That's exactly right.
Who will not receive preference over them. Correct.
What role does identity politics play in the Republican Party?
In fact, will be inferior to them in a sense because when you have this DC mandate coming down that says, hey, because of our grand strategy with China, because the US-China, the Sino-US relationship is on the line, wink, wink, nod, nod, in order to maintain detente with Beijing and Xi Jinping. we need this kid to get in. And it's not going to ever be a direct order, but it's going to be implied in the zeitgeist that, you know, those pesky Americans, you know, the ones that paid to build this university, they deserve. And forget this idea of fairness and who deserves what. Just objectively speaking, Florida kids who grew up here know the state best. When they graduate, they'll stay in this state.
They'll build businesses here. They'll hunt here. They'll raise families here. And when you deny them that ability to do all of that, then what's the point?
That is a very distressing thing. And that's happening. It's happening. What has been the posture of state government? Like what's the governor's office say about that?
There's been nothing so far. I think Governor DeSantis has been a great governor, especially during COVID, after COVID, standing up to- Yes, I agree with that. The indoctrination in our schools, which maybe is the only silver lining from COVID is all the parents actually knew what was going on in the classroom.
