THE DEMS' 2020 NOMINATION.
JOINING US, MATT GAETZ, YOU ARE
STILL A MEMBER OF THE FREEDOM
CAUCUS, RIGHT?
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
LOU: EVERY ONE OF THE REPUBLICAN
CONFERENCE'S LEADERS JOINED IN
WITH THE DEMOCRATS.
WHAT IS GOING ON IN YOUR PARTY?
THIS IS BRINGING BACK THE STENCH
OF THE PAUL RYAN YEARS.
>> I COMPLETELY DISAGREE WITH
THE DEMOCRAT LED RESOLUTION TO
CONDEMN THE PRESIDENT ON SYRIA.
THEY ARE THE SAME VOICES THAT
WANTED TO TOPPLE ASSAD THAT
CAUSED THIS PROBLEM TURKEY.
ERDOGAN HAS SEEN HIS APPROVAL
RATING SHOOT THROUGH THE ROOF
BECAUSE HE PROMISED THE TURKS HE
WILL RESETTLE 2 MILLION TO 3
MILLION REFUGEES BACK INTO THIS
PORTION OF THE BUFFER ZONE.
SO A REGIME CHANGE WAR BACKED BY
THE WAR LOBBY CAUSED THE
MIGRATION OF PEOPLE.
DON'T LET THE REPUBLICANS OFF
THE HOOK.
THERE WERE A LOT OF REPUBLICANS
THAT SUPPORTED THE OBAMA
POLICIES OF REGIME CHANGE IN
SYRIA AND LIBYA.
HERE IS MY QUESTION.
WHY ARE REPUBLICANS OR ANY
AMERICANS SO SURPRISED WHEN
DONALD TRUMP DOES EXACTLY WHAT
HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO DO.
HE SAID IN THE CAMPAIGN AND AS
PRESIDENT HE WOULD END THESE
WARS.
LOU: MY QUESTION TO YOU WAS
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOUR PARTY.
A THIRD -- LESS THAN A THIRD OF
YOU HAVE SUPPORTED THE PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES IN THE
MIDST OF THE MOST OF OUTRAGEOUS,
MOST OF OUTRAGEOUS, BASELESS
CLAIMS BY THE RADICAL DIMMS AND
THIS STAR CHAMBER INQUIRY OF
ADAM SCHIFF'S.
>> FAR TOO MANY REPUBLICANS
BELIEVE IT'S COURAGEOUS TO
SUPPORT U.S. DEPLOYMENT OF
FORCES EVERYWHERE.
LOU: THEY ARE SETTLING IN WITH
THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX.
THEY HAD SOLD OUT 100%.
>> THEY ARE.
THAT'S NOT COURAGE.
REAL COURAGE IS STANDING UP TO
THE SPECIAL INTERESTS AND
STANDING UP TO THE WAR LOBBY AND
THE FARM CHAIR GENERALS WHO
BELIEVE WE OUGHT TO BE ENGAGED
ANYWHERE.
YOU HAVE KNOW WHAT'S RIDICULOUS?
THEY DIVIDE THE TIME AND DEBATE
ON THIS RESOLUTION BETWEEN
REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS.
ONLY TOM REID AND I FROM NEW
YORK SPOKE AGAINST THIS
RESOLUTION.
IT'S A BAD THING FOR REPUBLICANS
TO LOOK LIKE WE ARE MORE IN LOVE
WITH THE WAR LOBBY AND MILITARY
INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX THAN THE
POLICIES PURSUED BY THIS
PRESIDENT YIELDING BETTER
OUTCOMES FOR THIS COUNTRY.
WE NEED TO PUT AMERICAN FIRST.
LOU: IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU
HAVE AN UPHILL BATTLE THERE TO
REASON AT ALL WITH YOUR OWN
CONFERENCE.
THE RADICAL DIMMS PERSIST IN
THIS -- WHAT THE PRESIDENT CALLS
A CON GAME, A HOAX, AND WITCH
HUNT PART 2.
THIS IS AS
THIS IS -S
THIS IS -- THIS IS SEEING THE
PRESIDENT KEEP A CAMPAIGN
PROMISE AND TOGETHER RIGHT
THING, GETTING A THOUSAND OUR
TROOPS OUT OF SOMEWHERE THEY
NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
>> DONALD TRUMP IS THE FIRST
PRESIDENT TO END A MIDDLE EAST
WAR SINCE GEORGE BUSH THE FIRST.
I HOPE THIS ISN'T THE FIRST
FOREVER WAR THAT DONALD TRUMP
ENDS.
LOU: ISSUE BEING HERE NOW, WHERE
IS THIS PARTY GOING TO GO?
SIDING AS IF THIS IS A GAME WITH
THE RADICAL DIMMS ON THIS ISSUE,
THEY ACCUSE THE PRESIDENT OF
BEING RASH IN HIS JUDGMENT THEN
THEY SIDE WITH THE DIMMS ON
THIS?
THE REPUBLICANS LOOK LIKE BLOODY
DAMN COWARDLY FOOLS.
>> REPUBLICANS ALSO
UNFORTUNATELY ARE CASTING
THEMSELVES AS PEOPLE WHO WILL BE
THE INVADE EVERYONE INVITE
EVERYONE PARTY.
I WISH WE WERE MORE FOCUSED ON
THE U.S. BORDER WITH 34EBGS
CO-THAN TURKEY'S BORDER WITH
SYRIA OR IRAQ'S BORDER WITH
IRAN.
LOU: HALF OF THE CONFERENCE
WON'T LINE UP WITH IT.
>> IT'S SHAMEFUL.
WE OUGHT TO.
WE OUGHT TO UNDERSTAND REAL
STRENGTH FOR OUR COUNTRY MEANS
RESILIENCE AT HOME.
A PROTECTED HOMELAND, A RESTORED
MANUFACTURING BASE AND
PRIORITIZING OUR BORDER RATHER
THAN BORDERS 7,000 MILES FROM
AMERICA'S.
LOU: THIS PRESIDENT STANDS ALONE
OTHER BE THAN REPUBLICANS LIKE
YOU.
197 REPUBLICANS ARE RUNNING FOR
REELECTION AND 2/3 ARE SIDING
WITH DEMOCRATS.
WHAT DO YOU THINK THEIR CHANCES
OF SURVIVAL ARE AT THE POLLS?
>> I THINK WE HAVE SEEN
REPUBLICANS WHO DON'T STAND WITH
THIS PRESIDENT ARE NOT VIEW
OFFED FAVORABLY BY THEIR
CONSTITUENTS.
PEOPLE SEE HOW HARD THE
PRESIDENT IS
PRESIDENT -S
PRESIDENT -- IS WORKING AND ALL
THE CRAP HE'S TAKING.
EVEN LIES ABOUT CONTEXT.
LOU: ENTIRE LEADERSHIP GIVES THE
SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE ON BOTH
CHEEKS AND VOTES ALONG WITH THE
DEMOCRATS.
