THERE
THERE FOR
THERE FOR THE FORMER GOVERNOR. BUT WE HEARD FROM NIKKI HALEY NOT TOO LONG AGO, SAYING SHE
VOWS TO STAY IN THE RACE AND FOR
MUCH MORE REACTION ON THE
WINNER. THE GOP PRIMARY, THE
FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP,
AND NOW THE CONTINUED CONTENDER
IN THE FORMER GOVERNOR, NIKKI
HALEY. WE'RE BRINGING DAVID
THOMAS AS WELL AS FLETCHER
SMITH, OUR POLITICAL
COMMENTATORS, GENTLEMEN. THANK
YOU. AS ALWAYS, FOR BEING WITH
US, DAVID, LET'S START WITH YOU.
IT IS AN HONOR TO BE HERE. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH. FLETCHER AND I
BOTH ARE VERY GOOD FRIENDS WITH
GOOD WAY BACK AND THAT WE HAVE
DIFFERENT OPINIONS. STILL IT IS
GREAT TO BE TALKING TO YOU. YOU
ARE VERY INSIGHTFUL AND
PROFESSIONAL. VERY PROFESSIONAL.
IT'S NOT ABOUT ME ABOUT ABOUT
THE RACE NIGHT. I APPRECIATE THE
KIND WORDS YOU GUYS ARE THE
EPITOME OF CIVIL DISCOURSE. WE
APPRECIATE DAVID, LET'S GO AND
START WITH YOU. YOU HEAR NIKKI
HALEY, SAY 40% THAT TELLS HER
THAT VOTERS WANT AN ALTERNATIVE.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT
NARRATIVE? COME OUT OF HALEY
CAN. IT'S A GOOD THING TO SAY
NOW, IF I WERE I'M A TRUMP GUY.
BUT IF I WERE AN ADVISER TO HER,
FLETCHER, I WANT TO HEAR WHAT
YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS AND
TELL HER TO STAY STAY TILL THE
VERY END STATE TO THE CONVENTION
NEGOTIATE. SPEAKING AT THE
CONVENTION, YOU CAN NEVER TELL
WHAT MAY HAPPEN PHYSICALLY, THEY
YOU GOT TRIALS GOING ON ALL
KINDS OF STUFF, BUT BIGGER THAN
THAT SHE MAY BE SETTING HERSELF
UP. I WOULD SAY TO HER IF I WERE
ADVISING OR IF HE LOSES THE
GENERAL ELECTION, THEN IT YOU'RE
SET UP TO BE THE GO TO BECAUSE
YOU STAYED THE COURSE. AND YOU
WILL BE THE PERSON WHO HAS THE
BEST AND STRONGEST AND MOST
PERSEVERING NAME RECOGNITION.
THEREFORE DON'T LEAVE 28 FOR
FOUR YEARS LATER. YEAH YOUR
ADVICE WOULD BE MY ADVICE. DON'T
LEAVE SIMILAR QUESTION TO YOU,
NIKKI HALEY OFTEN, TIMES SAYS
70% OF VOTERS DON'T WANT TRUMP
INVITED REMATCH STAYING IN TO
GIVE THEM THAT CHOICE. I THINK
SHE'S WRONG. OKAY TONIGHT
DEMONSTRATED THAT AT LEAST 60%
OF THE VOTERS WANTED TRUMP. AND
I THINK TRUMP IS GOING TO
CONTINUE TO GET STRONGER. AS SHE
GOES FORWARD NOW WHAT SHE'S
DONE. SHE'S HELPING US DEMOCRATS
BECAUSE SHE'S PEELING THE SKIN
OFF OF DONALD TRUMP AND SHOWING
THAT HE DIDN'T HAVE GOOD
POLICIES AND THOSE SWING VOTERS
IN THOSE KEY STATES THAT DECIDED
THIS ELECTION, NIKKI HALEY IS
HELPING TO PERSUADE THEM TO COME
BACK TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. SO
I'M THINKING SHE'S MORE LIKE
WITH THE TRUMP. PARTY. SHE'S
MORE LIKE A MOSQUITO ON AN
ELEPHANT. SHE'S AN IRRITANT, BUT
FOR US, SHE'S A SUBSTANTIVE.
ADDITION BECAUSE WE'RE ALREADY
RUNNING COMMERCIALS WITH HER
ATTACKING TRUMP. AND SO. IT'S A
GOOD THING FOR US. SO IT'S A
GREAT DAY IN THE NATION, BUT
WHAT NIKKI HALEY IS DOING FOR US
AS DEMOCRATS? DO YOU THINK THAT
DOES MOVING FORWARD BECAUSE YOU
KNOW, WE'VE HEARD ALL THAT TALK
ABOUT DEMOCRATS VOTING FOR NIKKI
HALEY, PARTICIPATING IN THE GOP
PRIMARY TODAY IS BECAUSE WE HAVE
OPEN PRIMARIES. SO WHAT DO YOU
THINK THAT DOES MOVING FORWARD,
ESPECIALLY IN MICHIGAN? WELL,
THOSE ARE NOT REALLY UM
LEGITIMATE. CONCERNS THAT STATE
SHE COULD TRANSLATE THAT INTO A
GENERAL ELECTION. THE FACT OF
THE MATTER IS THOSE DEMOCRATS
WANTED TO GET RID OF TRUMP. THEY
FAILED IN THAT EFFORT HERE IN
THIS STATE. HOWEVER. GOING
FORWARD. SHE'S HELPING US
BECAUSE WE WANT THE NEVER
TRUMPERS AND WHAT NIKKI HALEY IS
DOING IS YOU'RE APPEALING TO THE
NEVER TRUMPERS AND THOSE NEVER
TRUMPERS ARE GOING TO BE US. THE
PEOPLE LIKE LIZ CHENEY AND ALL
THOSE FOLKS, WE WANT THEM IN THE
BIG 10 OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
IT DOES KEEP THE FESTERING WOUND
. SO IT IS A FESTERING, WHICH
IT'S A THORN IN THE FLESH. NOW
YOU CAN LOOK AT IT FROM A
DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE, THOUGH.
LET'S THINK OF IT. THAT'S WHY
YOU'RE HERE IS THE CAMPAIGN
MANAGER FOR DONALD TRUMP WON THE
CAMPAIGN MANAGER OR ADVISORS FOR
DONALD TRUMP. IT COULD BE THAT
HE THAT THIS IS ALL SORT OF IN
THE GAME PLAN. LET HER STAY.
DON'T TRY TO FORCE HER OUT
BECAUSE IT CREATES KIND OF A
SENSATION. IT CREATES KIND OF A
TICK FOR TAT. IT'S INTERESTING
TO SEE HER HIM EVEN THOUGH SHE'S
ATTACKING HIM. YES, OVERALL, YOU
KNOW IT WORKS FOR THE DEMOCRATS,
BUT IN A WAY, IT SORT OF GIVES
ENERGY. THERE'S AN INHERENT
ENERGY THERE. SO I WOULD SAY TO
TRUMP DON'T TOO MUCH FOR IT OVER
THIS, AND I DON'T THINK HE
FRIENDS OVER MUCH OF ANYTHING
BUT LET HER BE HER AND AT THE
END OF THE SHOW, THE KIND BE
GENEROUS, BE MAGNETIC,
MAGNANIMOUS TO HER, AND, UH OH,
IT GOT GOING INTO SUPER TUESDAY
BECAUSE SHE STAYED. IT PROVIDES
SOME IMPETUS. IT PROVIDES SOME
ENERGY TO THE CAMP TO HIS
CAMPAIGN. WELL, I THINK QUESTION
HAPPENING. ONE LADY THAT I SAW
Y'ALL INTERVIEW. I WAS ANGRY
THAT NICKY WAS RUNNING. THOSE
FOLKS A LOT OF TRUMPETERS. IF
SHE EVEN LOOKS LIKE SHE'S
GETTING THE NOMINATION, THEY'RE
NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR NIKKI
HALEY. BECAUSE SHE HAS
UNDERMINED THEIR FAITH. IN THE
POLICIES THAT. THAT THE
REPUBLICAN NOMINEE WHO'S DONALD
TRUMP THEY'VE DONE, SHE'S
UNDERMINING IT. EVERY DAY. SHE
SPEAKS OUT AGAINST TRUMP. SHE
UNDERMINES HIS POLICIES. SO
THOSE FOLKS ARE NOT GOING TO
VOTE FOR A LOT OF THEM. NOT
THINK IT KEEPS HIM SHARP AND HE
HAS TO STAY ON TARGET. IF SHE'S
THERE NOW, THIS SOUNDS KIND OF
COUNTERINTUITIVE. REMEMBER, I'M
A TRUMPER, BUT I WOULD SAY TO
HIM DON'T THINK THAT THIS IS ALL
BAD. IT KEEPS US SORT OF IN THE
LIMELIGHT. IT KEEPS PUSHING THE
CAMPAIGN FOR IT KEEPS YOU
THINKING IT KEEPS YOU ON YOUR
TOES. BUT AS A AS A TRIPPER
SEEING THAT 40% YOU KNOW, WE
HEARD FROM NIKKI HALEY AND SHE,
SHE SAID, YOU KNOW, THAT TELLS
ME THEY WANT AN ALTERNATIVE THAT
40% WILL THEY TURN OUT TO VOTE
FOR DONALD TRUMP IN NOVEMBER?
WELL, YOU HAVE THE REST OF FROM
THE FROM THE FROM THE TIME THE
CONVENTION AND THE CHOICE OF THE
VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE,
WHOEVER THAT MIGHT BE. AND THERE
MAY BE SOME PRIZES HERE, A
SURPRISE ABOUT WHO THE VICE
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE MIGHT BE
THAT THAT WILL WILL GIVE IT MORE
ENERGY AND MORE FOCUS, AND I
JUST REALLY DO THINK THAT IT IS
ENTIRELY POSSIBLE THAT HER
PRESENCE MIGHT ACTUALLY ADD TO
THE ONGOING FROM THE FRONT FROM
THE CONVENTION. TO THE GENERAL
ELECTION THAT THREE MONTHS THAT
GOES BACK, UH, A REAL MOVEMENT
THAT HE WOULD NOT HAVE HAD
WITHOUT HAVING A COMPETITOR
STILL SHARPENED STEEL. HE BRINGS
UP A GOOD POINT. IT'S A LOT
ABOUT MOMENTUM. IT IS PRESIDENT
BIDEN. GET THAT MOMENTUM GOING
INTO NOVEMBER. WE'RE GOING TO BE
UNIFIED AS A PARTY COMING
NOVEMBER BECAUSE WE GOT BIG
ISSUES THAT WE GOT. WE GOT
WOMEN. WOMEN ARE GOING TO COME
OUT MASSIVELY FROM JOE BIDEN
BECAUSE OF THE ABORTION ISSUE,
AND BLACKS ARE GOING TO COME
BACK TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. SO
WE'RE GOING TO BE UNIFIED
BECAUSE DONALD TRUMP YOU CAN SAY
WHAT HE IS. HE'S GOING TO UNIFY
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. ONCE HE
GETS THAT NOMINATION, AND HE
STARTS TALKING THAT STUFF THAT
HE TALKS. WE'RE GOING TO BE
UNIFIED. WE'RE GONNA COME OUT
STRONG. ALL RIGHT.
