Democrats looking for a shocking underdog when in a special election in
Ohio on Tuesday are hoping not only to snatch a House seat in a historically
Republican district but also to energize their national effort to fight president
Trump's agenda and reclaim a congressional majority Ohio's 12th
congressional district in the suburbs of Columbus has had a Republican
representative for 35 years and has been largely in GOP hands since 1920 but a
poll released Monday by Monmouth University shows that Republican state
senator Troy bounder s'en 56 leads upstart
challenger Danny O'Connor 31 by just one percentage point Trump who in the
wealthy and highly educated districts by double digits in 2016 went all-in for
Baldur soon with a last minute rally on Saturday night in the sweltering
auditorium that Trump said hit 110 degrees ruining his brand-new beautiful
suit former President Obama took the district by several percentage points in
2008 a vote for Danny Boy and the Democrats is a vote to let criminals and
drugs pour into our country Trump said and to let ms-13 run wild in our
communities and you know what they do once they're there the president went on
to describe O'Connor as a puppet for House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi
Democrat California O'Connor once vowed not to vote for Bella c2 again lead the
party but later backtracked saying he would support the 78 year old if it was
necessary to retake the house Trump also defiantly questioned the idea that
historically the party that controls the White House suffers significant losses
in the midterms declaring but I say why Baldur so narrowly won the Republican
primary for the seat earlier this year amid a crowded field
and campaigned largely as a loyal supporter he said he would help build
Trump's wall and defend Christian values in an advertisement Ohio gov John Kasich
who often has criticized Trump since running against him for the GOP
presidential nomination also has endorsed Baldur s'en saying he is a
partner in turning around Ohio as we passed tax cuts and balance the budgets
it's really kind of shocking because this should be just a slam dunk for
Republicans and it's not Kasich said on ABC News this week on Sunday adding that
he believed Bal derson would win but it really doesn't bode well for the
Republican Party because this shouldn't even be contested Kasich said Bal derson
has other high profile Republican support Rep Jim Jordan Republican Ohio
also briefly took the stage during the rally at the request of the president
and was met with chants from the crowd supporting him for the House speakership
top Republicans hope the Baldur since support from both moderates like Kasich
and avowed Trump supporters in Washington would draw a large diverse
crowd of supporters to the polls on Tuesday Baldur Stan himself touted his
array of endorsements telling reporters this week he had unified the Republican
Party the August 7 special election to replace retired rep patty Barry will be
seen as a bellwether for the upcoming midterms in November and a clear
referendum on Trump and Republican leaders including Jordan a Quinnipiac
University poll found that Democrats have opened a 12-point lead on the
generic house ballot a gap that Republicans had almost closed just a few
months ago several other states will hold primaries on Tuesday but Ohio's
special election promises to be the last major partisan test ahead of the
November midterms the array of midterm season nomination contests has proven
confusing even for Washington insiders Trump last week erroneously told voters
in Ohio to get out and vote for Rep Steve Stivers who already
had won the GOP nomination for his house seat earlier this year he later deleted
the tweet and posted his endorsement of bounder said the first real fair that I
ever went to was with governor Mike Huckabee we want a bring him in now he's
the Fox News contributor of course and former governor of Arkansas remembers
this Huckabee on TV n I don't know if you remember this but you are in charge
of the Governors Association and it was the first time that I met you and your
family we all flew out I believe it was in Arkansas and you hosted a mini State
Fair do you remember this yes I do Abby and I remember that your dad and I and
Iowa played with REO Speedwagon because your dad is an amazing keyboard player
and I'm a mediocre bass player but I remember and I will tell you to this day
the best state Food Fair that I've ever had is pork chop on a stick at the Iowa
State Fair normally you go to these things and you just take a bite for the
cameras and then you kind of pass it on and you know that's it one bite I took
one bite of that it was so good and they started to take it away from me
I say touch me and I kill you really good I can attest to that the governor
is telling the truth in people line up just to get that Iowa State Fair pork
chop it is a serious thing and people also line up governors for these big
rallies that we are seeing the president do he is really getting the gear getting
us all in gear for the midterms he was in Tampa earlier in Pennsylvania last
night in Ohio and he really takes the time governor to remind his base why
they voted for him why he is the person that is fighting for the things that
they are care most about and that is this country he also talked about
predicting a red wave he said we hear so much about a blue wave coming and this
is why I think we're gonna see a red wave here's a bit of what he said last
night oh I guess we don't have that sup but and you were watching we were all
watching a governor what were the highlights for you you know I think what
Donald Trump is doing and he's doing it so effectively it's reminding people
that if you want to give up your crumbs your bonuses your pay increases if you
want to go back to an economy that no longer is chugging along with 4.1
percent GDP growth and go back to an anemic
just struggling economy vote for the Democrats if you want a government that
moves us more toward socialism more toward the idea of you working hard and
then giving it to somebody who didn't work as hard as you do vote for the
Democrats because that's what we're looking at if you want a nation in a
world it's not as safe that hates cops that wants to surrender and bow down to
foreign leaders vote for the Democrats and and I don't know of anything that
the president could do more effectively than what he's doing and that's going
out there and it drives the media people nuts it drives the elitist living in the
bubbles of New York Hollywood and DC nuts but it's rallying the people and
reminding them why he won overwhelmingly in November of 2016 and governor the
presidents out there rallying for also troy ball derson running against the
democrat danny o'connor do you feel like he's gonna have an impact there I think
he has an impact everywhere he puts his endorsement because it calls attention
now it doesn't mean that when you do an endorsement that it automatically causes
people to vote for somebody but maybe a person that just wasn't on the radar of
a lot of voters suddenly they say if Donald Trump is for this person maybe I
should be too and we've seen the influence in in key races Martha Roby
and Alabama comes to mind there's some other races where I think he's played a
significant role in boosting the candidate and giving them to push over
the finish line absolutely well the one of the things
the president spoke about last night was the fake news media he's tweeting about
it again this morning and part of the reason he talks about it is because they
failed to tell the whole story or they tell one side of the story and then
pretend like it's unbiased one example of that is the New York Times which the
president calls the failing New York Times and there was an op-ed in there
that caught our eye it talked about the children at Trump rallies it said what
is it like to see young people exposed to so much anger heartbreaking says a
Times photographer so he's positing that these kids at the rally that go with
their parents they're being there they're in a bad spot but you've you've
had kids go to present plenty of rallies what does it do - how does it affect
kids Donald Trump rallies are incredibly patriotic they're uplifting but let me
ask you something have you ever been to an Arkansas LSU game
you want to see some tension you want to see something you might want to keep
your kids away from that ought to do it but let me ask you this why don't we
take our kids to something more calm like a Maxine Waters speech that ought
to really be something that puts you in a soothing mood I mean good heavens the
New York Times is embarrassing itself they just hired a racist sexist cop
hating person to be on their editorial board and they even have the audacity to
defend it for them to come out and try to say anything negative about the tone
of Donald Trump is absolutely laughable they are making a joke of themselves and
I didn't think they could do a better job of doing that they'd already have
done governor the battle between the president of media it seems to only get
hotter and hotter and he and he slams and every time you he points back
because he knows they're standing right there and they can't respond obviously
but he continues to call them the enemy of the people he calls them disgusting
calls him out by name do you think this is helpful in the long run or as he give
is he making them the story well they should never be the story I mean
personally I would prefer that he spends more time ignoring them because I don't
think they matter that much to the average American voter and I think he's
got a distinguish the fact that not all the press or the enemy of the people a
free responsible press is the best thing we have in a democracy it's critical to
our survival but the other side of that coin the press needs to act with some
level of responsibility and when you have showboaters like the guy on CNN who
enjoys becoming the story let me tell you something
whenever a journalist becomes part of the story it's no longer a news story
now it is an editorial story because the best journalists are the ones who simply
give you the facts and they really are not part of the story at all their views
their opinions their biases are subjugated to the facts themselves and
let the reader or the viewer make the decision that's not happening very much
anywhere in journalism today and that kind of journalism is the enemy of real
freedom and liberty and for people to think yes and that's what he's pointing
out he's simply pointing out that that's it's been a double standard for a long
time and I'm be able to expose it to you now another hallmark of the left has
been the use of identity politics and and you
of race and gender and sexual orientation as the way of classifying
someone well Kemal Harris who we all know is on the
20/20 list potentially for Democrats the senator from California she took that
head-on and we want to get you react listen with that phrase identity
politics that phrase is used to divide and it is used to distract it is used to
try and shut us up these issues that they're trying to diminish and demean
are the very issues that will define our identity as Americans so those issues
are what define our identity as Americans in Kamala Harris's world and
in the world of most of the leftist Democrats we have the clearest example
of the difference between a conservative and a liberal and here it is
conservatives believe that our basic form as a nation is built around
individual liberty that I'm personally free and I'm personally responsible for
my freedom liberals believe that my freedom is tied to whatever group I'm in
whether it's my gender whether it's my race whether it's my socio-economic
standing and then I got to stay in my group and if my whole group does in
advance I can't advance because it's about the
group not the individual if you want to know the difference between the left and
the right there it is do you believe in individual liberty individual
responsibility or do you believe that we're part of groupthink and if you
think that it's all about the groups and you stay in your Corral and don't leave
until the whole herd of sheep go out well first of all you're a liberal
secondly I hope you like where your herd is because you're not getting out I'm
grateful to live in a country that let me get out of some of the Corral's that
I was put in as a child you know in terms of poverty terms of never thinking
I'd go 50 miles from my home but I grew up believing that in America you can do
anything be anything if you were willing to work hard get an education and not go
around calling yourself a victim thank God I live in America and I'll be
grateful every day for the extraordinary privilege of being individually free
well said well said in Thank You governor because now I'm hungry for that
pork chop on a stick having flashbacks to the fair we went to with REO
Speedwagon I was a backup singer singing go Johnny go go remember that the other
thing I gotta remind you of tom vilsack playing the spoons governor of Iowa
great guy and a good friend of ours but Tom you know they he was the host
governor so they got him up on the stage and he didn't really play an instrument
but he played the spoons and I felt bad for him the next day because the Des
Moines paper excoriated him for saying yet Huckabee on base yet Huntsman on
keyboard and then we had our governor playing this was a good sport that is a
great story governor great to have
