00:00I'm concerned about when he leaves, everything's executive orders, which means Donald Trump's pile is on the right.
00:07In comes the pile on the left and they undo everything. We're all going to get whiplash.
00:10And it's not good for anybody. Right. So the Biden, I can see the Biden Harris T-shirts.
00:16They're still in mothballs. They'll be back out and they'll be walking towards the border and they're going to be
00:19allowed to be in.
00:20So I really do think the president's under pressure to for me personally to do a deal, to do a
00:26deal.
00:26And this is what I hope for you. Tell me if you think I'm naive.
00:30I think the Democrats don't want to deal with the border anymore.
00:33They know it's a loser for them. American people have spoken.
00:37So for whatever reason, I think they're going to tell the president, you got the border.
00:42We're going to need something for people here.
00:44So the dreamers, you might even have bipartisan support for, you know, the president's like, yeah, I have no problem
00:49with the dreamers who haven't committed a crime.
00:51They can stay. And then they might be extended work visas for people here 15 years or more with a
00:56sponsor.
00:57You know, there and then there's things that can be worked out where Republicans are going to have to bite
01:02their lip and Democrats are going to have to bite their lip.
01:05But the Democrats want it away. They don't want to talk about it because it's almost like if for them,
01:11it's almost like men and women's sports.
01:14They can't win. Right. So they want that issue to go away.
01:18And I think they want immigration to go away. And you know who would benefit us?
01:21So we just got new rules. I want to verify for the farmers and the meat packers.
01:26But if you've been here for 15 years and you got a sponsor, extended work visa, no, no citizenship.
01:32So I talked to a conservative we both know and they go, everybody out.
01:38I want everybody out. OK, how does that look?
01:42You know, I'm grabbing people out of restaurants. I'm grabbing managers and owners.
01:46Sometimes President Trump knows all these people because he gets them in on the visas for his golf clubs.
01:52And he also knows a lot of those jobs. I believe it. He's had impossible for Americans to do.
01:58But just organize it. Organize what work fees is. OK, Americans can't fill the job.
02:03Well, you're going to pay a working wage to whatever that wage is.
02:07If you're going to take a Mexican on a work visa like a student from Sweden on an internship, you
02:13take them in for a season and then they got to go.
02:16But if they are probably if they prove themselves over five, 10 years, maybe there's a path where they can
02:21do the green card and they can say, listen, this guy is probably going to be an asset to us.
02:25He's a hard worker. And maybe there's a system there. You know, a lot of people, great people that want
02:31to get to our country.
02:32And it takes forever to do it the right way. Maybe we can make it easier to do it the
02:36right way.
02:37And, you know, Canadians, they go to college here. You know, they maybe if we want them to stay or,
02:45you know, they want to get a job here and they prove themselves.
02:48Maybe there's a situation where we got some status for them because we know they understand our culture and our
02:54country.
02:54So I just think there's I want to you want to get to the point, Miranda, where your podcast is
03:01less about who's in charge and more about the deals and compromises both do where it's almost like sports.
03:07I used to do all sports radio. They talk about a trade and both sides are like my side did
03:12great and your side did great.
03:14If we're really going to make progress in our country are my my shows and your podcast and your columns
03:21will talk about the deal.
03:22Trump gave too much. Trump got away with the perfect deal, man.
03:26He had little leverage and he still got what he wanted or man, the MAGA people are going to be
03:32upset with what he did on health care, but they're going to love what he did on immigration.
03:36That was that would make our shows just as interesting. And then we watch the way it plays out.
03:41So this way, when an election happens, like 24, every Democrat was just destroyed.
03:47They just were walking around. We're lost. We're dead.
03:49And now this time, now Republicans are walking around like we'll never be back in the saddle again.
03:55So what if you had a situation where I won, but you didn't lose?
04:01And I just think a pressure in the whole country would come down.
04:04Am I dreaming? Do you think?
04:06I like the idea that you're putting forward about around the edges, immigration reform.
04:13I'm not sure that Democrats would go for that because you'd have to have for Republicans a quid pro quo,
04:21such as voter ID, for instance.
04:25And I think they might give on that.
04:28I think they might give on voter ID. I do.
04:30Well, it's such a popular issue.
04:32Yeah, 80 percent of people want it. Democrats want it.
04:36I think right now, if you put Ted Cruz on that stage, if you put Ron DeSantis on that stage,
04:43Chris Christie knows the issues.
04:45He's always going to be strong on the stage.
04:47He might jump back in the ring again.
04:49Josh Hawley, does he not go under to anybody?
04:52Josh Hawley is going to be out there.
04:54I think that's going to be pretty clear.
04:57Tom Cotton, I think his kids are too young, but I wouldn't say he's not going to do it.
05:00And also Brian Kemp.
05:02I mean, Brian Kemp has got a great track record.
05:05And if people feel as though they want to turn the page on MAGA, I think you could honestly say
05:09he wasn't anti-MAGA, but him and Trump didn't get along.
05:12So that might be enough distance because people tend to get sick of the person in power after two years,
05:18two terms.
05:20Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who you just interviewed, who is remarkable.
05:25And I mean, Glenn Youngkin's another one on the sort of Mitt Romney side of things.
05:30Absolutely.
05:31You know, there could be somebody that comes out of nowhere, too, like Donald Trump did.
05:34Is there anyone from the business world that wants to jump in?
05:37You know, I think RFK is still thinking about it.
05:39People tell me inside there that he's got a goal.
05:42And I said, would he run as what?
05:44And they go, no, no, Republican, no question.
05:46So he considers himself a Republican now.
05:49And he's already took the slings and arrows and background checks from his family.
05:52I mean, what else can they throw at the guy?
05:53So he's certainly got the leadership and the charisma.
05:57And youth will be, I think, crucial, won't it?
06:00By then, I feel like this election told us something about that, that the electorate was
06:06sick of having elderly people, the boomers and their elders in charge.
06:11And maybe they're going to skip a generation to, you know, Gen Z, to the 30, 40 year olds.
06:18Yeah, I'm trying to think on the left, Katie Britt is probably the youngest senator that
06:23has a great demeanor, didn't get off to, you know, that one speech, people hang on.
06:28But Marco Rubio overcame his water situation when he had that speech.
06:33Brandon Gill.
06:33Bobby Jindal didn't.
06:35Yeah.
06:35Brandon Gill, man.
06:36But yeah, I don't know if he should, if he's ready for president, but he would, he certainly
06:41knows the issues.
06:42And by the way, his mentor, Jim Jordan, just got elected to the new House minority leader by
06:47a wide margin.
06:47So he's going to be the minority leader that just came across.
06:51So Brandon Gill, who says Jim Jordan's his idol.
06:54So that's, that's interesting to emerge.
