Automated transcript · uncorrectedWell, let’s get a view of what’s going on in Middle America. Let’s go to Michigan. And with us today is Rob Steele, and he’s one of the National Committee men from Michigan, and in every state the Republican Party has a one woman, one man to give us the pulse of what’s going on in Michigan. Well, Rob Steele,
give us the pulse of what’s going on in Michigan and how they feel about our country and how they feel about what’s going on in the world.
Well, first, John, it’s exciting to be on Cast and Cosby, you know, and we appreciate you bringing info from around the nation, you know, the Rabbit Red Apple media listeners and talk radio seventy seven WABC. And of course it is appropriate you talk about giving the pulse because I happen to be a practicing cardiologist, so that worked out well.
But yeah, so the rn C, we’re entirely focused on giving Trump all the tools he needs to be successful in his last two years, you know, continuing abund of cheap energy, a secure border, manufacturing job law enforcement, prosecuting fraud, all the things that we want to have, and of course the Save Act. We need but you know, for
Trump in the last couple of years, we need to have the Senate so he can appoint more judges. We see some of the crazy decisions that some of these judges make, and so we need a bigger group of judges appointed by Trump. So, and we know that he’s adorsed a few candidates that kind of go against the
insider Senate group, so they’ll be a little more America first and will probably help us get the save Ack. And of course we have to hold the hold the House, and that’s not easy in the midterm. I mean, many of your listeners know that the president so party in power typically loses seats in the midterm. But you know,
your listeners should not give up and don’t be woe was me about anything they hear in the media on national numbers, because the battle’s in twenty five districts. This is not a national election. Most of the districts aren’t competitive in either direction. So we’re going to be entirely focused on these districts that are in play. And so
the R and C, everything they do with the president, it hinges on two things. When we look at its spending a dollar, does it turn out the vote and does it protect the ballot? And so in these battlegrounds we have full election integrity staff and full political staff, and in fact, we were involved in over one hundred
and thirty five lawsuits around the country in thirty five states trying to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat. And of course, you know, moving on to Michigan here the Department of Justice, Well.
Ask one question, what is the pulse. You know, there’s a big Democratic revolt going on with the socialists trying to attack the regular Democratic party. What is the pulse of the Democrats around in Michigan? Or do you have migrants coming in trying to vote? Do you have common sense Democrats trying to maintain this the status quo? Give
us your analysis on that.
Yeah, absolutely, Well, the Democrats in Michigan are just like the Democrats everywhere. They’ve gone insane. We have a hardcore Democrat socialist wing of the Democrat Party in Michigan, and we have what you know, the media. How great would it be to be a Democrat referred to as modern Republicans or modern Democrats who vote for open borders and
all the crazy things they vote for. Men and women’s sports and all that. But the socialists in Michigan at their recent Democrat state convention, they just nominated an attorney general candidate that wants it defund the police and have no cash bail. All the Jewish candidates were booed heavily when they were on stage, and one of the University
of Michigan leader positions called the University of Michigan regent. There’s been extreme pro Palestinian anti Israeli protests there and at the state convention, attorney Emir Maklit, who has posts praising Hamas leaders as martyrs and has represented the U of M pro Palestinian protesters defeated them.
Winning who’s winning in the Democratic Party? You’re the socialists moving in or the common sense Democrats are retaining their control.
Well, this is what I’m trying to say. The Democrat state convention just nominated a socialist, pro Palestinian person who defeated a Jewish regent whose house was vandalized by pest Palestinian protesters. They’re governor candidates. They have Abdill l said running for Sorry for US Senate. They have governor candidates that are George Soros leftists behind the scenes, trying to
keep the voter rolls dirty and fighting like crazy. So it’s just like here, I mean, their Senate candidate was not has been endorsed by Bernie Sanders, AOC, Rashida, Tale Rocanna, all the typical things. And so it is exactly in Michigan like it is in many places. Is where the Democrats socialists are making great progress against what you know
people typically want to refer to as modern Democrats.
Well, Rob Steele, I mean any gut feeling which can happen in November.
Well, I think we have three US seats in the House Representatives open, which are being contested by the D Triple C great candidate, and US seven with an AOC Bernie candidate endorsed against him. He’s Tom Barrett for Congress, an Army pilot. We have an open seat that they’re spending a ton of money in where we have a
couple of good candidates, and of course our US Senate seat, you’ve had Mike Rogers on fabulous candidate and his opponent has been endorsed by AOC and Bernie and Rashida and wants medicare for all, abolishing ice, decreasing funding for the police.
But We’ve got a citizen only voting amendment coming onto the ballot in November, so we hope that motivate some people. We have data that suggests that true. So you know, Michigan is in play. You know, it’s crazy to think, but out of the last one hundred and thirty two years of US Senators in the state of Michigan, only
eighteen years out of the last one hundred and thirty two years have been Republican. So this open US Senate seat is one of the key things. It’s our greatest chance for a pickup here in the United States to help flip a seat from Democrat to Republican.
Rob Steele at a time, thank you for coming on this Sunday morning, and we’ll catch up with you again real soon.
Yeah, thanks so much for the opportunity to keep thanking. We appreciate your efforts. Bebe
