GET PREPARED FOR THIS! YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT Trump's About TO MAKE A DECISION
thank you very much appreciate everybody being here we've had a very busy two or
three days it's been very positive things are happening that haven't
happened in our government for a long time the other night as you know we had
a vote on border security and I did we want to discuss this just for a second
but the House of Representatives voted 217 to 185 approving strong border
security and the money necessary to take care of the barrier wall or steel slabs
whatever you want to call it it's all the same and it was a tremendous evening
for the Republicans to be honest with you
the level of spirit the level of happiness a lot of people came out they
said they have never seen one minute particularly it's been there for over 20
years he said I've never seen spirit or enthusiasm like this they came from all
parts of the country a couple of them came from other parts outside so I say
all parts of the world in order to vote and they voted and it was an incredible
vote and we were told that you would never get the house to vote we were able
to get the house to vote it wasn't that we did it they did it they were
incredible so I want to thank in this case House Republicans because what they
did was rather incredible do and now the Senate is looking at it we just had a
meeting with some of our great Senator Republicans and lasted for a long time
tremendous enthusiasm for border security and I think I can speak for
them very strongly when I say they want to see something happen on border
security they want the security of safety they want safety for our country
drugs are pouring in and we've done an incredible job considering we have no
barrier when drugs are pouring into our country human trafficking is at the
all-time worst in history because of the internet and the human trafficking
problem is a problem that has gone on through the ages but it's never been
worse because of the internet all over the world this isn't the United States
this is all over the world so we need border security and the Republicans in
the Senate as you know are taking it up today and it's really up to the
Democrats totally up to the Democrats as to whether or not we have a shutdown
it's possible that we'll have a shutdown I would say the chances are probably
very good because I don't think Democrats care so much about maybe this
issue but this is a very big issue it's an issue with pride it's an issue of
safety it's an issue of at least importantly dollars spend two
hundred eighty five billion dollars a year on illegal immigration we have to
finally do it the wall will pay for itself on a monthly basis I mean
literally every month a pays for itself so we're talking about small amounts of
money think of it we approved and we got food democrat support military last year
700 billion dollars recently seven hundred and sixteen billion dollars for
the military and he were talking about five million dollars so it's a tiny
fraction but unfortunately they've devoted their lives to making sure it
doesn't happen and that wasn't for what should happen that was for political
reasons so we are going to be working very hard to get something passed in the
Senate there's a very good chance it won't get passed it's up to the
Democrats so it's really the Democrats shutdown because we've done our thing
and when Nancy Pelosi said you'll never get the votes in the house we got them
and we got to by a big margin 217 to 185 so now it's up to the Democrats as to
whether or not we have a shutdown tonight I hope we don't but we're
totally prepared for a very long shutdown and this is our only chance
that we'll ever have in our opinion because of the world and the way it
breaks out to get the great water security Ronald Reagan tried many years
ago got a note from a member of his family
many years ago tried to get a wall and he fought for a long time during his
entire term he was never able to get a wall and I consider him to be a great
president he knew what he was doing we are going to one way the other we're
going to get a wall we're gonna get a barrier we're gonna get any
you can name it anything you want but we cannot let what's been going on in this
country over the last ten years we just can't let it happen now to a very
positive note criminal justice reform everybody said it couldn't be done
they said the Conservatives wanna pro but they said the Liberals won't approve
it they said nobody's going to approve it
everybody's gonna be against it it's been many many years numerous decades
and nobody came close the Senate scrambling as the clock ticks to avoid a
partial government shutdown at midnight to night a live look at the Senate floor
where Republicans are attempting to move forward on a procedural vote but it's
unclear if they have the numbers to go forward over at the White House the
president trying to place the potential blame at Democrats feet it's really up
to the Democrats totally up to the Democrats as to whether or not we have a
shutdown I hope we don't but we're totally prepared for a very long
shutdown and this is our only chance that we'll ever have in our opinion
because of the world and the way it breaks out to get great border security
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer saying Trump would be at fault and
Democrats will not be budgeting on any extra funding for the border wall
President Trump you will not get your wall abandon your shutdown strategy
you're not getting the wall today next week or on January 3rd when Democrats
take control of the house Jessie everybody is kind of figure out
what's the endgame here how does the president play out the strategy what do
you think I don't see the endgame wand I really don't I mean if he has a bill
that gets to his desk and it doesn't have wall funding he vetoes it or he
signs it and he says I tried but if he vetoes it it just goes back and then
everything gets shut down and then maybe it shut down for a week at most and then
the Democrats come in and take over and they never send him anything with
any wall funding and you're back to square one so I don't see the endgame I
guess maybe he's just trying to signal to the people that he's gonna fight but
he has to find more creative ways in the budget build this wall the wall has to
be built and that's his signature promise and he wasted the first time
with it and McConnell didn't deliver the first opportunity and it's a shame but
if they get rid of the filibuster which they won't you could get a wall you get
a lot of stuff the other side would get stuff this side would get stuff but the
way that the system is designed in the Senate 60 votes for these spending bills
you're never gonna get what you want and you're just gonna use the shutdown as
leverage time and time again and then we have to talk about how boring it is
let's not talk about it's boring because in fact it's a hot issue in public
opinion Quinnipiac has a poll out 54:43 no need for a while 62% of Americans
opposed to a shutdown but among Republicans 59 to 33 say yes to the wall
right but also have it imagine that 60% of Democrats say well it's more than I
mean it's like it's the same so this it's quite partisan I thought that the
language that Ted Cruz used earlier today was interesting I think you'll
hear more that coming from Republicans that the Democrats are extreme and
they're partisan and that the president is the one who is middle-of-the-road on
this and commonsensical some of them pointing back to February
though remember when the President had the cameras in and it was in the Cabinet
Room it was that most amazing meeting that anyone ever seen that deal at the
time would have given like 25 billion dollars plus it had the daka fix so it's
like you keep going back like gosh maybe that was the deal that they should have
had and taken back then but the Democrats are so dug in on saying no
that I just read that brian schatz the senator from Hawaii he had left its 11
hour flight to Hawaii he flew back 11 hours just to vote no so everyone is
quite Duggan you know Greg I know that your position is you know things happen
right yeah but my position
my new show things happen but it's not making it's a lot making a lot of people
and conservative talk radio the Ann Coulter's the Rush Limbaugh's right
they're like what are you doing you can't allow the Democrats to rape
what would Greg Gutfeld advise President Trump to do oh that's a great question
I would say that he's watching I no no you know what
okay here's when I looked when I listen to this I find this to be very foolish
it reminds me and I hate to use this the yani or Laurel thing remember that yeah
so it was blue trumpets managed to get Democrats to agree that having a strong
border is important because when everything getting the conversation all
the Democrats including you want have said it I want a strong border everybody
say that so he gets everybody said then he goes okay wall they go whoo-hoo-hoo
not a wall so it's actually they actually both sides agree but the
Democrats are hung up on language they are hung up on language because it's the
word it's the word wall so might I quote somebody hmm Scott
yes Scott Adams why not adjust the length adjust the language if it's a
wall or if it's a fence who cares call it a wince right that's a that's a Scott
at its president Trump wants gonna call it steals lat well oh this is amazing to
me steel slats sounds fantastic to me that sounds like something pretty cool
you can move it around but you know Democrats will say that this is the
wrong way to cut immigration right because most of the illegal immigration
is overstayed visas right that's like saying I don't like a fork because it
won't cut my meat well you have a knife for that so you have a fork and a knife
so you can have a wall strong border and then you could then you could address
that other stuff so the arguments are either emotional flawed or pigheaded
when it really everybody wants the same thing but they won't give in so Jedidiah
if we do have a shutdown at midnight you're going to see I think it's 800,000
federal workers you know 47 of them percent of them will not even come to
work the rest come to work they won't be paid until the government reopens their
backpack right but then you have federal contractors out of work to the the
the State Department says they'll keep doing visas restrooms some of the state
federal parks are gonna be closed what do you think's gonna be the reaction
well I think from the right I mean people got very nervous when they
thought he wasn't gonna dig his heels in when he kind of wavered for a second and
they thought oh he said he wouldn't be afraid to shut the government down now
he is afraid I think he's already done what he needs to do regardless of how
this works out he's now gonna be the guy who was willing to go through with the
government shutdown to dig his heels in and say I'm willing to do that partial
government shutdown he's also proving that he's willing to
take on the language and say this is a Democrat shutdown he's taken on the
language when it comes to what a shutdown actually looks like that it's
not this you know Armageddon that the left always paints it as that so many
essential government functions still keep working I just think it's
interesting I watched Chuck Schumer and he says you're not gonna get your wall
as if the wall is for President Trump the wall is for the United States of
America it's for our national security it's to address the humanitarian crisis
at the border these are we're talking about resources for Border Patrol agents
you just had a little girl die crossing in horrific conditions so this idea that
he's not giving him the money to spite Trump you're nots fighting Trump you're
spying American citizens and your spy tting all of those poor people who are
being incentivized to come and cross this border under these horrific
conditions so I think Democrats should take a minute and really reflect on that
and I know it sounds good to oppose the wall but think about what you're
actually opposing which is addressing national security and the Amana terian
credit a new manatorian crisis that's happening at the border so alone I think
he's already done what do you got to do so Janet I you are so lucky it's like
Santa delivered for you because you got a Democrat at the table so I would say
to you hey Jedediah I think President Trump said Mexico is gonna pay for the
wall yeah well and you know I said no a million times he should have never been
on record saying that because it was highly unlikely that that was gonna
happen but the bottom line is that I mean you have people opening go fund me
accounts in this country to say you know what if the government's not gonna do it
we're gonna do it that shouldn't be the case the primary responsibility of the
government is to protect its citizens and that includes border security okay
so one final question on this for everybody so Jesse laid out a potential
endgame a way that the president could get out
which is to say look I really did my best I have tried with these Democrats I
even put went to the point I think Jared I have put picked up on this I'm saying
we're going to shut down in government so we'll rush limbaugh the Drudge Report
Breitbart well people like that say you know what mr. president you did your
best with those doggone Democrat yeah I mean
listen if he goes out and does weaken as much as you can and you look at Mitch
McConnell or you look at the House Republicans and you say you know what
they didn't deliver with the two years they had majorities but even then you
still need 60 votes you still need 60 votes you got a new
kid that's what you got to do you got a nuke option or nothing thanks Greg when
he starts hammering the table you know it is watching politicians debate over
the over the wall is like watching Dana and I try to get something down from a
high shelf because there is no expertise right and I think that was the mistake
at the beginning of this was not introducing expertise into this problem
and said it started with a price it's like if you are not if you were gonna go
renovate your house you don't say I'm gonna spend this now you're gonna figure
out what you want to renovate do I need do I need a table here do I need it cut
and then you come up with a budget this is I was gonna say ass-backwards can I
say that I think what we needed and is like engineering expertise somebody that
says okay this is what maybe you have a wall here maybe you don't have a wall
here and then you come up with it but instead we started from the reverse so
that might be a compromise well how about our public relations
expert in this Perino what would you suggest well I don't know how it's gonna
come down but I do think that there was something that the president and his
administration was able to do yesterday that got buried it didn't get enough
attention it was actually quite impressive very impressive secretary of
Department of Homeland Security Kirsten Nielsen announced that they have reached
this deal with Mexico Lathon dealer they basically said to Mexico they're going
to hook up basically house or hold the asylum seekers so you you are a migrant
you come across you get processed but then you wait in Mexico that's a really
big deal and the administration has done lots of different things that
are part of the whole cutlery set yes all right so there's a spoon a knife a
fork the dessert spoon everything that they've tried to do all of that smaller
knife there's a lot of things that they're doing outside of the wall that
could either give them some cover with their base but also to let the American
people know like they're not just waiting for five billion dollars for
steel slats wall they actually that's really impressive and she deserves some
credit for that she of course got buried because of all the other breaking sure
and also the Supreme Court had a ruling Jedidiah that said the administration
cannot put a cap on the number of people seeking asylum it was an interesting
vote because the Chief Justice John Robert wrote administer right that is
true as well and I would also say about the dollar value I think it's
interesting there's been a lot of debate about the five billion dollars people
need to remember he's not just pulling that number out of thin air I mean he's
talking to Border Patrol agents he's talking with people at the border and
they're telling him this is what we need this is what's insufficient so you know
Chuck Schumer doesn't get to aside what to decide what's appropriate amount of
money and and frankly neither does Donald Trump he he is working with the
people on the border so these numbers exist for a reason because he's getting
it from the people who are there trying to process people trying to get them in
buses in these remote areas to other locations trying to make sure that the
proper medical supplies are there and also trying to contain what's going on
so that number had there's a reason that that five billion dollars in terms of a
monetary value even exists by the way Gregg does he go to Maura
Largo if the government shuts there well I'll talk to him later actually I'm
gonna hitch a ride with them they serve drinks on the plane on the sleigh ride
thank you god bless you and God bless america
