BE, PRESUMED SPEAKER I THINK IS
WHAT WE SHOULD SAY.
JOINING US NOW, CONGRESSMAN ANDY
BIGGS OF ARIZONA, SERVES ON THE
SCIENCE, SPACE, TECHNOLOGY
COMMITTEE, A MEMBER OF THE HOUSE
FREEDOM CAUCUS.
GREAT TO HAVE YOU WITH US.
AND HAPPY NEW YEAR, CONGRESSMAN,
TO YOU.
>> HAPPY NEW YEAR.
LOU: IT'S GREAT TO BE HERE
LOU: IT'S GREAT TO BE BERE
LOU: IT'S GREAT TO BE BACE
LOU: IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK HERE,
I'LL TELL YOU.
A LOT GOING ON.
LET'S START WITH THE PRESIDENT
STANDING TALL, SPEAKING
STRAIGHTFORWARDLY TO PELOSI AND
SCHUMER TELLING THEM, GET THE
WALL.
AND HE'S SAYING THAT THIS COULD
BE A LENGTHY SHUTDOWN.
THE LONGEST SHUTDOWN BACK IN '95
AND '96, 21 DAYS.
WE'RE OVER HALF OF THAT ALREADY.
WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
>> WELL, I THINK IT'S GOING TO
BE A LONG TIME.
AND I DO AGREE THAT MAYBE AFTER
PELOSI [S
PELOSI BS
PELOSI BECOMES THE SPEAKER
SHE'LL GET A LITTLE LOOSER BUT I
DOUBT IT.
I THINK WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
PUSH THIS FOR A LONG TIME.
AND FROM THE '95 SHUTDOWN WE
WERE 24 HOURS AWAY FROM WINNING
IT, ACCORDING TO GEORGE STEPH
STEPHANOPOULOS.
I THINK WE CAN WIN THIS THING.
I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT
A WALL AND I DON'T THINK WE NEED
TO GIVE IN AND TRADE DACA OR
ANYTHING ELSE FOR IT BECAUSE THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT THIS.
WE CAN STAND FIRM AND THE
PRESIDENT IS STANDING FIRM AND
I'M HAPPY ABOUT THAT.
LOU: I THINK YOU'RE EXACTLY
RIGHT.
THE COMPARISON TO '95 AND '96
WAS A PANIC SPEAKER AT THAT
POINT AND HE HAD A DIVIDED
PARTY.
THIS PRESIDENT HAS HAD A DIVIDED
PARTY FROM THE MOMENT HE WALKED
IN HERE.
WITHOUT HIM THERE IS NO
REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP.
AND SCHUMER AND PELOSI MAKING
SOUNDS TODAY AS YOU LISTEN TO
THEM STANDING IN FRONT OF THE
CAMERAS AND MICROPHONES, YOU
WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THEY WERE IN
A DEBATING SOCIETY, NOT COEQUAL
MEMBERS OF THIS GREAT REPUBLIC'S
GOVERNMENT.
AND THE PRESIDENT OF COURSE IS A
DOER, A BUILDER, MAKING THINGS
HAPPEN IS HIS ESSENTIAL NATURE.
THEY WANT TO TALK NARRATIVE AND
POSITION AND NONSENSE AND
BLATHER ON WHEN IN POINT OF
FACT, AS THE PRESIDENT SAYS,
IT'S ABOUT MAKING THIS COUNTRY
SAFE, IT IS ABOUT SECURING THAT
BORDER, IT IS THE NATIONAL
SECURITY AND BE DAMNED DEMOCRATS
IS WHAT I WOULD HOPE THAT HE
WOULD SAY TO THEM WHEN THEY DO,
AT SOME POINT HERE RATHER SOON,
COME SAYING LET'S TALK DACA.
DACA IS DUMB.
YOU DON'T NEGOTIATE.
YOU DON'T NEGOTIATE NATIONAL
SECURITY, DO YOU?
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
THEY DON'T SEE THIS AS A
NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUE.
THIS IS NOT A POLICY ISSUE FOR
THEM.
THIS IS A POLITICAL ISSUE.
THAT'S WHY THEY'RE TRYING TO LAY
IT ON PRESIDENT TRUMP.
THE PUBLIC IS NOT BUYING THAT.
THEY KNOW THERE'S NO BILL ON HIS
DESK TO VETO OR SIGN.
THIS IS THEIR DOING AND THEY
DON'T WANT TO BUDGE AN INCH,
THEY DON'T WANT TO GIVE ANYTHING
FOR THIS.
AND JUST THE VISUALS ARE STARK.
JUST YESTERDAY YOU HAVE MORE
PEOPLE TRYING TO RUSH THE BORDER
AND WHAT'S PREVENTED IT?
YOU'VE GOT A WALL AND THEN THE
TEAR GAS THAT SLOWS THEM DOWN.
THIS IS WHAT'S NECESSARY.
THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE ON THE
BORDER WANT.
IT'S WHAT THE BORDER PATROL
AGENTS WANT.
IT'S WHAT THE I.C.E. AGENTS
WANT.
AND IF WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A
NATION AND BE A IN ADDITION OF
LAWS, WE NEED TO HAVE A BORDER
WALL TO SECURE OUR SOUTHERN
BORDER.
LOU: TO ME IT IS STUNNING THAT
PELOSI WAS ADAMANT, SCHUMERED
ADAMANT, NO WALL, NO WALL, NO
WALL, DESPITE THE FACT -- THESE
PEOPLE, SHE'S ELECTED BY 700,000
PEOPLE, A DISTRICT OF 700,000.
HE'S ELECTED FROM THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.
AND TALKING ABOUT THE PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES ELECTED BY
THE NATION.
>> RIGHT.
THINK ABOUT IT, LOU.
YOU'VE GOT THE RUST BELT PEOPLE,
THE MIDWESTERN PEOPLE WHO
CROSSED OVER FROM THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY AND THE INDEPENDENT PARTY,
INDEPENDENCE, THEY VOTED FOR
PRESIDENT TRUMP WHEN HE SAID
LET'S BUILD THE WALL.
THAT'S WHY THEY CAME OVER.
THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION IS GOING
IMMIGRATION IS DOING TO THE
COUNTRY WHERE YOU HAVE MORE
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS COME IN THAN
YOU HAVE LEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
LOU: AND THEN THERE'S THE
BHATTER OF
MAATTER OF
MATTTER OF
MATTERR OF
MATTEROFOF
MATTEROF LISTENING -- WE COULD B
MATTEROF LISTENING -- WE COULD I
MATTEROF LISTENING -- WE COULD D
MONUMENT TO THE IT
MONUMENT TO THE IDIOTCY AND
FORMER SPEAKER.
GOOD RIDDANCE AND NOW WE'RE
SITTING HERE WATCHING THESE
LEFT-WING RADICAL DIMMS JUST
BEHAVING AWFULLY.
HOW DOES IT RESOLVE AND HOW
SOON, REAL QUICKLY.
>> I THINK WE'RE A WAYS OFF,
LOU.
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE RUN THE
COURSE HERE.
LOU: WHATEVER IT TAKES.
BUILD THE DAMN WALL, RIGHT,
CONGRESSMAN?
