Hurting them at the polls and thing you have to win votes. Do you think it is clear that Donald Trump is politics driven and not Policy Or Principle . I think that definitely is where he is at. If you recall in the midterm elections of 22 he threw the prolife committee under the bus and blamed us for not having the red tsunami that we were supposed to have. Those who are authentically pro Life Life like governor Ron Desantis and governor kim reynolds, not only did they win in 2022, but they express the Red Wave in Florida And Iowa that was predicted. I think on the prolife issue, on the life issue, people want authenticity, they do not want nuance or lets make a deal, they want to know where you are at. I believe Governor Desantis has been clear he wants to be a champion for the culture of the sanctity of human life. If Donald Trump wins the
Galvanized and said someone will have his back as he had my back. My concerns are some of the things he just mentioned and hes not with us on the Life Issue right now. Hes not with us on the Gender Issue right now. There seem to be a lot of things and what are you for . Its not just about winning the White House and what will you do, and what will you surround yourself with . Ron desantis who has led on all these things and took a Tossup State and dominated it to deep red in the midterm elections, and i think hes our best shot to win the White House in 2024. So if 2024 is the most important election of our life time we need to win and thats why im thrilled to back ron desantis. Bob vander plaats, thank you. Randy kaye takes a look at that
The same question at a Fox News Town hall recently and he said thats why we are getting beat because of the Life Issue we need to win. He said about governor santos and governor reynolds signing the heartbeat was an awful thing. On the gender issue, when Megan Kelly asked him can a man become a woman, he could not answer that. Those are issues that we have concerns with today. I can see why evangelicals are appreciative to what he did in his term as president , but now they need to look clear eyed about who could win 2024 and who can lead in our issues. You brought up the two Town Halls, the Town Hall with me trump would not say how many weeks he would support an Abortion Bill and the other one with fox last week he basically made a sound like, or he acknowledged the fact that the abortion policies that republicans have pursued are
giving a dark horse candidate like me an opportunity to articulate a vision. here is why the case in georgia i think is even more damning. we ve all heard the phone call about him trying to get a state official to do something that he knew and that the secretary of state knew was illegal. this is something that, even if donald trump somehow wins the gop nomination and wins in november, which i think has absolutely no chance of him winning in november, then he can t pardon himself. this is probably the most dangerous case for him. i would also want people you just had john kasich on. you had the vote in ohio last week. before that vote everybody thought that piece of legislation that was a proxy for abortion and the life issue was narrowly going to pass, and it got beat by almost 18 points. so the disconnect between those that actually care about these issues versus those that respond
what people want to hear. yeah, look, laura, obviously the cultural stuff matters, the life issue matters. laura: you bet. american values matters. and you and i agree on that. we also have to recognize that most americans are voting their pocketbooks and rightfully so. if you think of the entire trump campaign, he still is talking about issues that most conventional republicans are terrified of, including by the way his competitors in the republican primary field. is he talking about trade. is he talking about the fact that immigration steals wages from working and middle class americans that if we have 10 million, 15 million illegal aliens coming in and taking homes from the average american citizen next generation is not going to be able to afford to buy a home. that s what people care about. it s an insult and a terrible verdict on the republican party that donald trump is still one of the few people in our movement who is still talking about these issues. laura: the workin
