contest. well, for his part, trump continues what, to many, seem like petty attacks on desantis and the latest polls about, well, the latest about his so-call pudding fingers. and for desantis, the attack on trump wasn t really petty, it was just, well, kind of off. now what a gift it would be for biden if the election ended up being a referendum about guns and abortions instead of biden s biggest vulnerability which we all know was the economy. a poll released on sunday showed that 97% view the economy as an important issue with inflation at 95%, healthcare at 94%. abortion was down at 79%. so desantis is battling did i see any, trump is battling alvin bragg. crowds are showing up with some uncomfortable moments for both men. a crowd in texas didn t seem to react well recently when trump,
and some prominent figures, i know don trump jr. is against taking any action against anheuser-busch. why are they so scared of this? well, unfortunately, we ve seen time and time again a lot of these companies donate to republican candidates and institutions for this exact reason. so they can get away with serving woke activists and woke politicians and run to those people for defense. which is why we launched woke alerts, we re not beholdened to corporations we don t take corporate money we re supported by consumers around country and that allows us to go hard against these companies when they betray their consumer base like budweiser did today. laura: the ceo of anheuser bush released a statement that read in part we never intended to be part of a discussion that divides people. we re in the business of bringing together people over a beer. doesn t really say anything but your reaction. flat-out lie.
don t know, the corporate world thinks. and so they don t try to make that argument and convince people. trump did. and we re going to and i think in a different way, youngkin and desantis have had a lot of success in doing that. i don t think it s too early at all. i think these three candidates should get in and we should have a debate. the only my only worry, laura, is i think all of the candidates should pledge to support the nominee because there s going to be no margin of error when you re dealing with the type of money the democrats have and the institutional support. and we know what they re going to do, they re not going to support the border or anything else they re going to cry racism and they re cutting social security and that s all they re going to do and that s effective if you control the echo chamber in the united states. laura: charlie i think victor raises a very important point because i really believe people like hogan and baker, liberal republican governors,

founder and president of turning point usa. charlie, what s going on here? well, yeah, the buried lead there is if there s a lot to review probably and there s a lot that they don t want actually being put in the public. think about the things the media was enthusiastic that got leaked or revealed the last couple years. the president s tax returns illegally, the president s phone calls, president trump, not to mention the supreme court leak with dobbs but we re not allowed to see the manifesto? there s been major pushes by the media for transparency over the years, that democracy actually hangs in the balance. but we know why they don t want this to be made public, because there might be evidence that number one this was a hate crime inspired by a trans ideology against christians. number two, there might be further evidence that this person was wrestling and struggling with this ideology. that this was something that might have outside influences might have come in maybe tik tok o
