00:00Good evening, everyone. I'm Laura Ingram. This is Ingram Angle from Washington tonight.
00:06More winning as the left sputters. That's the focus of tonight's Angle.
00:13On what was a beautiful afternoon in Washington, Donald Trump reminded us why
00:17electing a successful businessman was a very smart move. Democrats need to vote
00:23for the clean bipartisan CR and reopen our government. It's got to be reopened right now.
00:30We're not doing that. They are the obstructionists. And the reason
00:35they're doing it is because we're doing so well. We're doing well all over the world. We're doing
00:40well with the close to 20 trillion dollars that I just told you about. It will be that number,
00:45but even if you take it down to over 17, that's a guarantee. We're doing well with everything.
00:52Car plants are pouring back into our country. AI plants, we're leading, we're dominating China right now.
00:58Well, re-industrializing America will take some time. But week after week,
01:03we're beginning to see the results of Trump's efforts. And the main reason why investment
01:08is pouring in, well, my favorite word, tariffs. Even the Euro elites who bristled at Trump's
01:14re-election are admitting that the dire warnings about his tariffs were overblown.
01:19IMF director Kristalina Georgieva told a conference last week that the trade war didn't really happen.
01:25We have a major change in trade policy with the U.S., but the rest of the world has chosen not to
01:30retaliate. Tariffs equal national security. You got to remember that. And they also equal wealth
01:38for our nation because we've taken in hundreds of billions of dollars in a very friendly manner,
01:43given to us by nations that used to take it from us. And they use tariffs on us. But the tariffs have
01:50made us a wealthy country. They've given us tremendous defense. If you go back, you'll see
01:55some of the presidents that were the most successful were believers in tariffs.
01:59Well, that is true. And in fact, so much money is pouring in
02:03that Trump may even give tariff rebates to American taxpayers.
02:07We're a very rich country again. We'll start paying off debt. We'll do a lot of things.
02:12We'll probably make a distribution out of some of the tariff money. I think we're going to make
02:16a distribution over the next fairly short period of time to the people because we took in so much
02:23money from the tariffs. Forget the COVID money, the COVID rebate,
02:28COVID checks. We want a tariff check. Well, the truth is he's just better at this stuff than
02:33any of these other people are. And unlike other American presidents, Trump's trade policies are
02:38grounded in one undeniable fact. America's marketplace is irreplaceable. Take Hyundai,
02:45the effort to avoid tariffs on their part. Well, they've moved major operations here,
02:50investing tens of billions of dollars. And after Trump's DHS booted their battery plants,
02:55foreign workers out of the country, things are back on track there. And they're creating economic
03:00opportunity in Georgia towns that had lost other major factories to outsourcing.
03:04The CEO, Jose Munoz, recently told his investors, quote,
03:09my top three priorities are USA. If we do well here, it's very good for Korea. It's very good for the
03:17company. Now, would the hundreds of billions of dollars, and Trump said trillions of dollars,
03:22and new investment be happening if Kamala were president? That's a trick question. Of course not.
03:28We'd all be hearing the giant sucking sound of more jobs to Vietnam,
03:33China, and India. We'd be getting ripped off and ordered around by Brussels and Beijing.
03:39That's because on the biggest issues facing America, Democrats have no answers,
03:44no solutions, only vitriol and perpetual agitation. They're so caught up with being anti-Trump that
03:51they're now pro-criminal. Even the Trump hating Atlantic recently hammered J.B. Pritzker and
03:56Brandon Johnson for minimizing crime in Chicago, saying that what these politicians refuse to
04:02acknowledge is that violent crime in Chicago remains a serious problem. As I heard from
04:07residents there on a visit last month, Trump doesn't entirely miss the mark when he lambast
04:13generations of political indifference to so much suffering. When he deployed the National Guard
04:18in Washington, D.C., crime fell. Look, but the left, they don't really care if regular people
04:25suffer, right? I mean, in fact, they think you should suffer because they think America herself
04:31is irredeemable. And because Trump himself is so relentlessly pro-American,
04:37he's everything they hate. His style, his tone, and his priorities.
04:41We don't want dictators or kings in America, and we will never have it.
04:47We are confronting the possible end of our republic. No thrones, no crowns, no kings.
04:55The people's house is basically being sold to the higher spitter. It is corruption at its core.
05:02There's no greater metaphor right now than what's happening right now in this country than watching
05:09Donald Trump take a wrecking ball to the White House.
05:13Yeah. But Trump's rightly proud of his work to make Washington more beautiful again.
05:18We're building a world-class ballroom. You know, for 150 years, they've wanted a ballroom here. We
05:26don't have a ballroom. We have a little cocktail area, but we don't have a ballroom. I said, if I do this
05:31again, I'm going to get a ballroom built, and we're putting up our own money with the government
05:36just paying for nothing. But he's building something far more important than a ballroom.
05:41He's trying to rebuild the American dream. That first required protecting our people and our jobs
05:47by enforcing our borders. Done. And also deporting illegals. More than 500,000 so far is a lot more to go.
05:54But he's also deported a lot of vicious violent felons. Good for America.
05:59Biden's team was punishing America with an open border. And if Democrats get back into power,
06:04they're going to punish you again, people.
06:06The paid anti-ice agitators are doing Democrats bidding for them.
06:10Aren't they lovely when you want them over for dinner? Again, all the Democrats have to offer
06:25are cartoonish rallies, giant costume parties. For them, it's always Halloween, except it's all tricks,
06:32no treats.
06:45How is that new? They're always doing that garbage can thing. All right. Oh, and let's not forget their
06:50party's crowning achievement. As Trump racks up investment wins and the Dow Jones hit another
06:55all-time high. The Democrats brought us, all right, drum roll, please. The Schumer shutdown.
07:04Senate Republicans have already voted 11 times to get our government back and open for business.
07:09We have record business. We're going to be, I think by the time I had my, I hit month number 12,
07:16I think we're going to have $20 trillion of investment. We're over 17 right now. As an example,
07:24President Biden had less than a trillion for four years.
07:28Oof, what a record. Now, Democrats are dying on the vine. And even their friends are conceding
07:36that the odds for big gains next year, they're stacked against them.
07:40The Democratic numbers are, our disapproval numbers are higher than the Republican disapproval.
07:45Trump is higher than both of them individually, but as a party. And I think that that's the,
07:50that would be something if I were in the Democratic side, I'd be concerned about.
07:54Well, the theatrics, the histrionics, though, it's all they got. And I think it's their
07:59entertainment. It's their church. Trump's trouncing them in economic policy, foreign policy,
08:04and even social policy. You see, the Democrats bet against America. They thought Trump was finished
08:10after 2020 in January 6th. And that Americans would accept the same type of decline that we see
08:16in countries like France and Germany. But they were wrong. America is getting stronger every day.
08:23And it's the Democrats who are going to be left behind. And that's the angle. We're now joined by
08:28Mark Meadows, former White House chief of staff in the first Trump administration,
08:32and Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution. Mark, Democrats feel like
08:38they have a leg up on one issue, I think. And you hear it from Mom, Donnie, affordability.
08:44So they're going crazy. We're going to do a segment later on about they're freaking out about the
08:48ballroom, which I laughed about all day. But they're, they're, they're really betting it all
08:52on the affordability issue. Do they have the answers on affordability, Mark?
08:56Well, we can look at the last four years and obviously they don't have the answers, Laura.
09:01You know, your, your monologue was spot on, you know, here, here, what, here's what we have.
09:05We have Democrats celebrating over and over again about an open border, about inflation that they
09:12say was under control and transitory. And it wasn't, but give me a builder and a businessman and
09:18Donald Trump in the White House every time. And what we're seeing is not only the meltdown
09:23about him redoing the ballroom and actually making it better, but we're seeing a meltdown
09:29on every single thing that he promised on the campaign trail, he's actually delivering on.
09:34We've got a secure border. We've, we've literally have less crime in Washington, D.C. because of his
09:41actions. And now he's willing to take that to a theater near you in Chicago and other, other cities.
09:47So, uh, uh, they have nothing to run on, uh, except that Donald Trump is a bad guy and most of America
09:56is not agreeing with that. Um, Victor, George Stephanopoulos tried to get the Walmart CEO
10:01to bash Trump and the economy. Check this out. Food prices are up, especially, uh, Turkey. So what
10:07are you doing to help customers keep the costs down? We started putting together this idea of having the
10:12entire basket easy to purchase, easy to assemble back in 2022. And this year we will have the best
10:18prices on this basket we've had since the program started. We're, we're down about 25% from last year,
10:25down about $14 for the basket. Turkey prices, George, are all the way back to what they were in 2019.
10:32All I can say, Victor, is poor George. Poor baby. I wasn't expecting that answer.
10:37Yeah, the, the CEO is basically saying, George, uh, we had 20 to 30% inflation under Biden.
10:46And now we've done all we can under a new administration and it's working and it's,
10:51and it's declining and we're back to almost Trump's first term. So that was pretty damning.
10:56They're in a doom loop, Laura. The primary people that are running and they know that they have to
11:02oppose Trump in every aspect on crime on the border that are very popular, what he's doing.
11:07And that gets them nominated. But then that very act of coming out against Trump and shutting down
11:12the government, that loses you in the general election. And so they don't really have a formula.
11:18You can get, but sometimes a party goes very radical and they can win, they put these primary
11:23candidates and then they, they can do well in the general election. If you have a charismatic Obama or
11:28Bill Clinton and they're on the wrong side of the issues, but they don't have any charismatic leaders
11:33or any politicians that are skilled, at least that they would nominate and they're on the wrong side
11:39of the issues. And the primary system is going to ensure that this lunatic base is the center of
11:45gravity in the party. So I don't know how they're going to get out of it unless they get a, a, a, a very,
11:50another big defeat in 2028 or maybe even in the midterms. And they're in a doom loop.
11:56And meanwhile, uh, they're trying to tackle big issues while all the theatrics and the dress
12:01up parties in the streets are going on for the Democrats. Um, they're trying to solve and make
12:05sure that this peace deal holds in the Middle East. So Vance was, was over there in Israel
12:11and he made a comment on this today. Watch. We know that Hamas has to comply with the deal.
12:16And if Hamas doesn't comply with the deal, very bad things are going to happen. I feel confident
12:21that we're going to be in a place where this peace lasts, where it's durable. And if Hamas doesn't
12:25cooperate, then as the president of the United States has said, Hamas is going to be obliterated.
12:29So Mark, again, he's putting him on notice, serious stuff happening.
12:32Well, he is, but it's very fragile. But yet I'm confident in this president. We have hostages
12:38that will return that for two years, uh, actually languished, uh, in, in Gaza. And so, you know,
12:46here, here's what we do know. The president is serious about making sure that things happen.
12:51And he's committed, uh, to the welfare of the American people. And, uh, and that's showing
12:56up each and every day, not just here in Washington, D.C., but around the world.
13:01Victor, do you think they have to lose one more presidential election
13:05to change, whether it's Vance or Rubio, whoever the Republican nominee ends up being,
13:11they're going to nominate someone radical, clearly? They're going to lose, in my view.
13:15Yeah. Yeah.
13:16Then maybe, just maybe, they'll change. Yes or no?
13:2120 years it took McGovern to Bill Kinlan. They had a little Carter interlude,
13:25but it didn't really change much. 1972 to 1992. That took 20 years. It could do it again if they keep
13:32doing it. Yeah. Talk about a doom loop. Yeah,
13:35they got to break that loop pretty quickly. Mark and Victor, both of you, thank you so much.
13:39Thank you. And a shocking scene unfolding in L.A.,
13:43a U.S. Marshal and an illegal alien both shot during an immigration operation.
13:47Fox's Bill Malusian is in our West Coast newsroom with the latest bill.
13:51Laura, DHS says this all started as a targeted traffic stop of a known illegal alien who had
13:58previously escaped from federal custody. They say when federal agents tried to box him in near downtown L.A.
14:03this morning, the suspect rammed his car into federal vehicles in an effort to escape.
14:08That led federal agents to fire their weapons defensively. Now, DHS says there was a U.S.
14:14Marshal who was helping with the arrest, and he was the one hit by a bullet ricochet in his hand.
14:19The target illegal alien was hit by a bullet in his elbow, both of them suffering non-life-threatening
14:26injuries. They're both at the hospital recovering right now. Now, a federal law enforcement source
14:30tells Fox News that the suspect is a Mexican national in his 40s who is in the U.S.
14:35illegally. In a statement, DHS tells Fox in part, quote, these are the consequences of conduct and
14:41rhetoric by sanctuary politicians and activists who urge illegal aliens to resist arrest. Our law
14:47enforcement officers are facing a more than 1,000 percent increase in assaults against them,
14:52including vehicle ramming by illegal aliens. We are once again calling on sanctuary politicians,
14:58agitators, and the media to turn the temperature down and stop calling for violence and resistance
15:04against ICE law enforcement. Now, DHS went on to highlight recent comments from Democrats like AOC
15:10and Gavin Newsom, where they gave tips to illegal aliens on how to avoid arrests and also how to
15:16block ICE agents and defy arrest. And, Laura, anti-ICE activists have now gathered outside of the
15:22hospital where the suspect is being treated tonight, and immigrant rights groups are now planning a press
15:27conference at the scene of the shooting in about 20 minutes from now. We'll keep an eye on that.
15:31We'll send it back to you. Wow, Bill, thank you very much.
15:35And coming up, China is finding out what happens when you try to use leverage and jostle Trump.
15:41As President Trump and his team prepare for their brutal swing through Asia in a meeting with President
15:53Xi, China's decided to try to up the ante by bullying companies planning on doing big investments in the
16:00United States. Trump's trade rep, who's headed to Asia tomorrow, responded this way. Attempts at
16:05intimidation will not stop the United States from rebuilding its shipbuilding base and responding
16:10appropriately to China's targeting of critical industrial sectors for dominance. Well, for his
16:17part, President Trump seemed eager to smooth things out today. I expect to be able to make a good deal with
16:23him, and I want him to make a good deal for China. But it's got to be fair. For years, they were making
16:30five, six, $700 billion, $700 billion, $700 billion, and we'd be making nothing. It was a one-sided.
16:39Honestly, we built their military. We built China's military with the money that we lost for so many
16:45years. He's right about that. Here to discuss right before he leaves, and he's all packed.
16:51Jameson Greer, U.S. trade rep. Mr. Ambassador, great to see you. Thank you for joining us. It's going to be a
16:55brutal trip for you. China seemed very threatened by this move of Trump's to rebuild U.S. shipbuilding,
17:04specifically China targeting Hanwha, the Korean shipbuilding company that's going to put a big
17:10investment in the United States. What next here? Well, I mean, listen, early on in the administration,
17:16the president was very clear that he wanted to rebuild American shipping and that we need to have
17:21some portion of the global market. And that's why the president's doing everything he does. He's not
17:25trying to antagonize any country or hurt anybody. He's trying to put America first. And so it's just
17:31unconscionable that China thinks that if someone's going to come here to America and help rebuild
17:36shipping, they're going to take a sanction against them. Will this Korean company back down at all?
17:41So I don't think so. They're invested here. They've already invested in our shipyard in Philadelphia.
17:47They've already taken orders for ships, for LNG carriers, the kind of stuff we should be exporting.
17:52So I'm not worried about that. We got a lot of catch up to do in the shipbuilding,
17:55do we not? I mean, we kind of lost our dominance in that. And also the U.S. and Australia was a big
18:00deal this week signing this rare earths agreement just yesterday after China announced that rare earths
18:07export control. And in a statement, the Chinese embassy denied that it was to blame for any rare earth
18:14disruption in the global marketplace, saying that the global industrial supply chains came into
18:19shape as a result of the choices of the market and businesses. Countries with mineral resources need
18:24to play a positive role in keeping relevant industrial and supply chains safe and stable and to ensure
18:30normal trade and economic cooperation. How do you deal with these people? They put the export controls in
18:37place and now they're essentially blaming the United States. Right. And this is technology
18:42with respect to the rare earth. It's technology that the U.S. invented and pioneered 60 years ago.
18:48And China was able to have some of that transfer of technology, which was a mistake,
18:53turns out. And so it's completely normal for us, obviously, in the face of Chinese export controls
18:58to diversify and develop other sources. And so, again, you know, we get these word salads coming
19:05out of Beijing of trying to justify what they've done. No one's fooled. Everybody knows. It's not
19:09just the U.S. It's the EU. It's Japan's Australia. Everyone is sick of it. So you're going ahead before
19:14the president arrives in these countries. How have your meetings gone thus far with your Chinese
19:20counterparts? Well, I will say they are. They are certainly cordial. Every time we show up and they show up,
19:28there's interest in trying to be constructive. But there was one guy at the WTO who Scott Besson
19:35said was the troublemaker. And I heard that he's out in China. Well, he he was at the WTO. Then he
19:41was a vice minister. I think he's still he's still on the team. But, you know, our focus is trying to do
19:47what's right for America. This is not an issue where we're trying to hurt China or make them lose. I
19:52mean, that's just not what we're doing. Like the Chinese motivations, obviously, are totally different.
19:55Well, aren't there isn't there motivation? Speaking of that, isn't there motivation,
19:59global dominance and every key industrial sector? That was the whole point of the Belt and Road
20:04initiative, was it not? So this idea that, you know, if China rises, everybody rises,
20:09this rare earth move on their part shows that's not the case. That's right. And it's no secret,
20:13right? They've published these plans with the Belt and Road, also made in China 2025. They've been
20:17telegraphing for years. And to be honest, American policymakers are partially at fault. But
20:22but fundamentally, the Chinese have said for a long time, they've telegraphed exactly
20:26what they're going to do. And it's up to the president and frankly, a lot of our allies,
20:30if they have the spine for it, to stand up to this and to make sure that we can be independent with
20:36respect to these critical sectors. They're flooding Europe and other economic sectors with their excess
20:41capacity. They have so many factories humming so much being produced in these factories,
20:46but now not as much being bought here in the United States, which is the biggest marketplace.
20:51Europe seems to now be saying, whoa, we got we we got to take measures here because it's
20:56destroying European businesses. Is Germany finally waking up to what's about to happen
21:01or what is happening to their auto industry? So I think so. Like, for example, with steel,
21:06as you know, we've taken measures on imported steel and have for many years.
21:10The Europeans finally are doing that. The Canadians are doing that. We're seeing the Mexicans doing that.
21:15We saw the Europeans announced about 20 anti-dumping cases against Chinese imports.
21:19Dumping excess capacity below market value. Yes, that's exactly right. So so we see them starting
21:25to do this. You know, it's always been the case that America has to take the first step. We have a
21:29bias for action. And then eventually the others come along when they see it affecting them.
21:34Is there a possibility that we have no deal out of this trip? Because I prefer no deal. I think
21:39they're being hurt now. And I'm sorry, but I think the only way China changes is if they suffer
21:43economically, just like the former Soviet Union. So why do we need a deal if the tariffs are working
21:48so well? Well, if there's a deal to be had, the president will find it to be sure. Do we have to
21:52have a deal? It has to be a fair deal, right? Is there a landing zone with China? I mean, notionally,
21:57yes, but it has to be fair, which is what the president said. And if there's not a fair deal,
22:00then there's not a deal. Mr. Ambassador, good luck on this trip. We'll be covering it day by day.
22:05The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals gave President Trump the green light to deploy
22:09the National Guard to Portland and not a moment too soon. It looks like the police there can't or
22:14maybe don't want to get things under control. Watch what happens after thugs try to blind
22:20agents on the roof of the ice facility. They're shining something in the-
22:32They're hiding behind the sign.
22:39And they're running for cover behind Portland police. Oh my God, you've got to be kidding me.
22:44Why aren't the police doing anything here? Well, that lack of response is so alarming,
22:51a federal agent confronted officers about it. Nobody told us anything. So we're standing there,
22:56we don't know what's going on. Oh my God, is this the tension?
22:58Oh, it's just like, she's literally running behind you guys.
23:03Yeah, and we don't know why she's running.
23:06My God, that's beyond stupid. Here with us is the
23:10independent journalists who watch us all unfold. Nick Sorter, Nick. That's wild. Like, how long
23:16were those fanatics, Antifa, whatever they were hiding behind the police and any clue as to why
23:22nothing was done? Laura, they were standing there for several minutes. I mean, I was in shock and awe.
23:30I mean, if you listen to that video, you can hear my voice. I'm like, wow, they are actually doing this.
23:35They are going to seek cover behind Portland police officers. And I was standing three times
23:41as far away from this unfolding situation as those cops were. And I saw everything that was
23:47going on. So the notion that they had no idea the, the, you know, the several of them that were
23:51standing there had no idea what was going on is just BS. And that's why you saw that federal agent
23:57who had finally had enough go out there and say, what are you doing? Why are you running cover for
24:02for these people that are literally trying to blind us on the rooftop? They've had enough. And I mean,
24:07you know, the DHS agents out here, Laura, they've had to put up with Antifa going after them for the
24:15longest time. But now they're not just up against Antifa, they're up against Antifa and the Portland
24:19Police Department, which are running cover for these leftist thugs. It's wild.
24:24It was that we're watching your video from last night. Unbelievable scene. Is that some type of,
24:30what is that in the air? Some type of dispersant tear gas? What is it?
24:38Yeah. And so what happens out here is the Portland police refused to pose the road in front of the,
24:43the ice facility. And so everybody comes and they block the driveway so that ice vehicles
24:48can't get in and out. So the only option that federal police have is to, you know,
24:53put out tear gas canisters and use other non-lethal munitions to move people out of the way. And what
24:59they were doing is you had these Antifa people going up and taking those munitions and throwing them
25:05back and tear gassing officers and such and, and, and launching fireworks at them and flash bangs.
25:11And Portland police, they're, they're either not there because they retreat or they watch it happen
25:19and do absolutely nothing about it. And this is a routine situation that you see out here practically
25:26every single night. And that's actually why. Yeah, Nick, why are the police not doing anything?
25:33Like you always think the police and the federal agents, law enforcement agents and state and federal
25:38would work together because they're all there to enforce the law. But it, it seems like I would,
25:44I would believe that they've gotten some type of stand down order not to do certain things,
25:51to not respond to this type of violence. They arrested you though, right? They threw you in jail overnight.
25:59Yeah, no, I mean, they'll definitely arrest people like me, but they have orders
26:02not to look like they are assisting ICE or DHS in any way, shape or form. They've said that publicly
26:11at this point, officers out here on camera. So that's not just speculation. They're saying that
26:16themselves. So somebody is giving that order and I'm telling you or I'm going to find out who.
26:20Yeah. Well, Nick, be careful out there, please. Thank you for this video and all the great work
26:25you're doing. All right. But poor pitiful Democrats and the assorted never Trumpers.
26:31Because Trump has them all dizzy on the dance floor. Demo is underway for the construction of the
26:36fabulous new thousand seat ballroom off the east wing of the White House. And his critics are waltzing
26:43into insanity. You don't own it. Take it down. You don't own it. We're building this Marie Antoinette
26:55kind of ridiculous, unnecessary, luxurious project. To take literally a wrecking ball to
27:03the White House. I can't. It's grotesque. It's just grotesque. Yeah. It's painful. I mean,
27:08this is historic structure. It's history being torn to shreds. History being torn. What does that even
27:17mean? The ballroom's hitting them worse than what? Zelensky not getting the tomahawks? I mean,
27:22they're really upset. Weren't these the same people, by the way, who told us that America
27:26should always be evolving, right? But none of this is going to stop Trump. He's putting his own stamp
27:32on old Washington and trolling all the haters. You probably hear the beautiful sound of
27:38construction to the back. You hear that sound? Oh, that's music to my ears. I love that sound.
27:44Other people don't like it. I love it, Josh. I think when I hear that sound, it reminds me of money.
27:51In this case, it reminds me of lack of money because I'm paying for it. So it's the opposite.
27:57Joining me now, Missouri Senator Josh Hawley. Senator, I don't know why I've just
28:01been hysterically laughing over apoplectic they are on the left and all the never-Trumper types
28:08about this ballroom. I mean, you were there today. Is President Trump sweating this?
28:14Oh, of course not. By the way, Laura, I love this that, oh, it's history being destroyed.
28:18History? These are the people who, for the last four years, have torn down every statue of this
28:24country's history they could get their hands on. George Washington tore it down. Thomas Jefferson tore
28:28it down. Theodore Roosevelt tore it down. Christopher Columbus, we were told was an
28:33oppressor and tore it down. And now suddenly they're the great defenders of history. Give me a break.
28:38They hate Donald Trump. They hate everything he does. The fact the president is doing this on his
28:43own dime, Laura. I saw it today. It looks fantastic. I'm delighted he's doing it. And I love seeing
28:49these liberals meltdown. Oh, no. Ann Applebaum is like, it is worse than Zelensky not getting
28:54the tomahawks for her. I mean, this is just, she's, I mean, she just looks like she lost her best
28:59friend here. Hillary felt the need to chime in, Senator, saying it's not his house, it's your house,
29:06and he's destroying it. This is, didn't the Clinton sell out the Lincoln bedroom? And I remember all those
29:13stories, what they did when they were there. I mean, I mean, Bill Clinton treated it like, what is his
29:17bedroom, right? Every, every office was his actual personal bedroom.
29:24Yeah, Bill Clinton did a lot of things in the White House. I tell you, among other things
29:27they did, though, is they did absolutely raise campaign money on it. They sold out the Lincoln
29:31bedroom, pimped it out, you might say, to their donors and other people. Nothing that the Clinton
29:35say is credible and nothing that the Libs say is credible. You know, they're talking about,
29:38oh, we have to preserve this wonderful institution. Once again, let's remember,
29:42these people burned whole cities to the ground, Laura, when they had a political disagreement
29:47with somebody else. These people don't believe in institutions. They don't believe in history.
29:51All they believe in is power. In this case, they can't stand that the people put Donald Trump in power,
29:57and now they're just throwing a fit like they are with the government shutdown and everything else.
30:01It's ridiculous, and Trump is doing the right thing. I can't wait to see the ballroom finish.
30:06Well, I think if he really wants to get them completely, you know, just losing their minds,
30:11he should have a whole statuary garden and bring back Robert E. Lee to the statuary garden,
30:17right? They would really put them to, you know, not in an early grave. We want everyone to be
30:23healthy and happy. But the history, yeah, okay, let's do history. Let's put them all back,
30:28all the statues back. And he offered, by the way, to pay for the ballroom back in 2016,
30:34which we forgot. Watch this. Donald Trump offered to build a $100 million ballroom
30:40here at the White House. Was that ever considered? What else can you tell us about that?
30:46I was not the one that was consulted, but I can tell you that this is not something that was
30:52at all seriously considered. I'm not sure that it would be appropriate to have a shiny gold Trump
30:57sign on any part of the White House. And was that what he was offering?
31:02Well, that's what most of the buildings that he offers to build include.
31:06And you've never heard from him again. I mean, I don't even know who that is. I don't even know,
31:10I don't remember who that is. Josh Earnest, always earnest. Senator, this is wild,
31:17but I'm looking forward to seeing a thousand seat ballroom. No, that's fitting for,
31:22that's fitting for America. Senator, thank you so much. And coming up,
31:26was Gavin boozed up while L.A. was burning?
