KENNEDY: LET THE GAMES
BEGIN.
NIKKI HALEY TODAY LAUNCHING
HER 2024 PRESIDENTIAL
CAMPAIGN, ANNOUNCEMENT
KICKING OFF A PRIMARY BATTLE
AGAINST FORMER PRESIDENT
TRUMP.
HAILEY TAKING A VALUED SHOT
AT TRUMP AND ANOTHER
PRESIDENTIAL RIVAL,
PRESIDENT BIDEN. >> WE’LL HAVE TERM LIMITS
>> WE’LL HAVE TERM LIMITS
FOR CONGRESS.
AND MANDATORY MENTAL
COMPETENCEY TESTS FOR
POLITICIANS OVER 75 YEARS
OLD.
KENNEDY: MAKE IS OVER 45.
TRUMP AND BIDEN OLD AS DIRT.
NUMBER 45, HAD SOMETHING TO
SAY ABOUT THE ANNOUNCEMENT
SAYING, I’M GLAD SHE’S RUN,
EVEN THOUGH SHE MADE A
COMMITMENT SHE WOULD NEVER
RUN AGAINST WHO SHE CALLED
GREATEST PRESIDENT OF HER
LIFETIME, THE MORE THE
MERRIER.
CAN SHE WIN, JOINING ME NOW
BEN DOMENECH.
CAN SHE WIN?
>> NO.
>> RIGHT.
>> I’M SORRY.
KENNEDY: JOHN BOLTON SAID
THAT SHE IS JUST RUNNING FOR
VP, HOW ABOUT THAT.
>> NIKKI HAILY IS NIKKI
HALEY WHO IS TALENTED HER
TIME IS PAST.
SHE IS SOMEONE WHO
REPRESENTS YOU KNOW, A NEW
GENERATION OF REPUBLICANS IF
YOU WENT 10 YEARS AGO.
SHE IS TALENTED AND HAS
APPEALING AND A GOOD
SPEAKER, I THOUGHT HER
SPEECH WAS GOOD.
BUT, SHE IS ALSO SOMEONE WHO
TRIED TO NAVIGATE LAST
COUPLE YEARS IN TERMS OF
REPUBLICAN POLITICS, FROM MY
PERSPECTIVE NOT DONE A GOOD
JOB.
I HAVE SOME AFFINITY FOR
HER, I GREW UP IN SOUTH
CAROLINA.
BUT, I THINK THAT NIKKI
HALEY WILL RUN INTO THE FACT
SHE DOES NOT HAVE THE KIND
OF CREDIBILITY ON THE ISSUES
THAT CURRENT REPUBLICAN
VOTERS ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT.
PARTICULARLY I THINK THE
CULTURE WAR BATTLES THAT ARE
IMPORTANT IN THIS DAY AND
AGE, OTHER THING, I THINK IN
A FIELD THAT YOU KNOW DOES
NOT HAVE AS MANY SORT OF
FORMER TRUMP PEOPLE, AS WE
MIGHT END UP SEEING, I THINK
SHE WILL ATTRACT A LOT OF
ATTACKS FROM THE FORMER
PRESIDENT GOING FORWARD.
HE WAS THE SOFT ON HER
TODAY.
I THINK HE WILL BE MEANER TO
HER IN FUTURE.
WE’LL HAVE TO SEE HOW SHE
RESPONDS, SHE HAS NOT HAD TO
FACE THAT KIND OF DIFFICULTY
FROM HER OWN PARTY BEFORE.
I THINK IT WILL BE A
CHALLENGE FOR HER.
KENNEDY: WHO ELSE IS JUMPING
IN MIKE POMPEO RELEASED A
BOOK, MIKE PENCE IS VISITING
NEW HAMPSHIRE.
AND IOWA.
WE HEARD TALKS OF TIM SCOTT
ANOTHER SOUTH CAROLINAIAN
WHO MIGHT HAVE SOMETHING TO
SAY ABOUT TWO TITANS FROM
THE STATE.
TRYING TO GET THE TOP JOB.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT IS
INTERESTING ABOUT WHO IS
JUMPING IN, WE HAVE A FOX
GRAPHIC THAT SHOWS THE
DIFFERENT PEOPLE, YOU KNOW
THE PLETHORA OF FOLKS WHO
MIGHT JUMP IN.
THE FACE THAT STILL ON
THERE, WHO HAS BEEN
TELEGRAPHING HE HAD IS NOT
RUNNING IS INTERESTING THAT
SENATOR AT THE TED CRUZ, HE
CAME IN SECOND IN 2016, A
LOT OF PEOPLE WHO WERE
PREPARED TO WORK FOR HIM IF
HE RAN THIS TIME, HE DECIDED
TO RUN FOR SENATE INSTEAD.
KENNEDY: INTERESTING.
>> HE SASS SAID HAS SAID,
THAT TO ME THAT LAYS UP
SOMETHING INTERESTING, EVERY
YEAR SINCE 1976 IN
REPUBLICAN NOMINATION
BATTLE, A TEXAN HAS RUN THIS
TIME WE MAY UP WITH NO
PEOPLE FROM TEXAS BUT NOBODY
FROM A BORDER STATE THAT
WILL BE INTERESTING WITH
ADVOCATING ON BORDER ISSUES
AND IMMIGRATION, AND YOU
KNOW MAKING CASE TO VOTER
YOU HAVE A SOLID RECORD WITH
ADDRESSING THAT PROBLEM.
SCENARIO THAT IS INTERESTING
AND CHALLENGES, I HOPE WE
SEE PEOPLE LIKE TIM SCOTT
GET HIM AND MIKE POMPEO GET
IN.
I THINK THERE IS A LOT OF
IDEOLOGICAL DIFFERENCE, I
WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT TYPE
OF DEBATE PLAY OUT.
KENNEDY: YOU KNOW, IF THEY
HAVE A ROBUST INTELLECTUAL
DEBATE IT WOULD BE BETTER FOR THE PARTY AND COUNTRY.
FOR THE PARTY AND COUNTRY.
AND I BET THAT MEAT BALL RON
DESANTIS WOULD LOVE TO RUN
AT GOVERNOR.
>> HE WEARS COWBOY BOOTS
THAT SAY PROBLEM.
