JOINING US NOW IS RICK CICCONE.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.
>> THANKS, MARIA.
>> MARIA: A BIG DAY FOR YOU.
WE'RE WATCHING THE DEVELOPMENTS
AND IT IS IMPORTANT NOT JUST FOR
YOU AND THE 18th DISTRICT BUT
FOR CONGRESS AND THIS PRESIDENT.
HOW ARE YOU FEELING?
>> I'M FEELING GREAT.
IT'S ALL ABOUT GETTING OUT THE
VOTE AND HEY, I'M TELLING YOUR
VIEWERS, EVERYBODY GET OUT AND
VOTE TODAY.
WAKE UP.
COME ON, PEOPLE.
IF OUR PEOPLE TURN OUT, WE WIN.
>> MARIA: LET ME ASK YOU TO MAKE
THE SALES PITCH HERE, RICK,
BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE
WONDERING REALLY WHAT THE REASON
IS, IN TERMS OF YOUR POLICIES,
WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO.
TELL ME WHY YOU BELIEVE YOU'RE
THE GUY.
>> WELL, I WAS ELECTED ON THE
SAME AGENDA THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP
WAS ELECTED ON, CUTTING TAXES,
CUTTING SPENDING, ROLLING BACK
REGULATIONS THAT ARE STRANGLING
OUR BUSINESSES, REPEALING AND
REPLACING OBAMACARE, REBUILDING
OUR MILITARY, TAKING CARE OF OUR
VETERANS, PROTECTING OUR SECOND
AMENDMENT RIGHTS, PROTECTING OUR
UNBORN CHILDREN, SECURING THE
BORDER, PROTECTING LAW
ENFORCEMENT.
ALL THOSE THINGS ARE THINGS I'VE
BEEN WORKING ON THE STATE
LEGISLATURE FOR EIGHT YEARS.
PRESIDENT TRUMP NEEDS HELP.
HE'S GETTING BEAT UP FROM THE
MEDIA AND FROM HOLLYWOOD.
HE NEEDS A GOOD WING MAN.
I WANT TO GO DOWN THERE AND
PROTECT HIM AND HELP HIM
IMPLEMENT THE AGENDA.
>> MARIA: WHAT'S AT STAKE?
PEOPLE ARE WONDERING WHAT THIS
MEANS FOR THEM IN TERMS OF JOB
CREATION.
HOW ARE YOU ACTUALLY GOING TO
MOVE THE NEEDLE IN TERMS OF
ECONOMIC GROWTH IN YOUR
DISTRICT?
>> COME ON NOW, LOOK AT THE
NEEDLE'S ALREADY BEEN MOVED.
THE PRESIDENT, WE'RE AT THE
LOWEST UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IN 50
YEARS, RECORD JOB GROWTH.
IT'S AMAZING WHAT'S GOING ON.
WE'RE JUST GETTING STARTED.
THERE'S A LOT MORE TO COME.
I THINK AS THE PRESIDENT MOVES
FORWARD WITH HIS AGENDA, YOU'RE
GOING TO SEE THE ECONOMY -- THE
ECONOMY'S RUERING. ROARING.
LOOK AT YOUR 401-K.
PEOPLE ARE SEEING IMPROVEMENTS,
THE BONUSES, THE GREAT TAX CUT
PROGRAM BILL THAT WAS PASSED.
SMALL BUSINESSES ARE EXPANDING.
THEY'RE HIRING MORE PEOPLE.
THEY'RE GIVING BONUSES AND
RAISES TO THEIR EMPLOYEES.
THEY'RE ADDING TO THEIR 401-KS.
SO MUCH GOOD IS HAPPENING.
WE'VE GOT TO KEEP THAT UP.
>> MARIA: YOU'VE GOT TO DO MORE
THAN WHAT THE PRESIDENT HAS
DONE.
I MEAN, CONOR LAMB HAS GOTTEN
THE MEMO OF WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO
PEOPLE AS WELL AND HE'S TRYING
TO SELL THE STORY THAT HE IS FOR
THE SECOND AMENDMENT AND HE'S
FOR JOB CREATION, HE'S GOING TO
HELP ECONOMIC FAMILIES OUT
THERE.
SO HOW DO YOU DIFFERENTIATE
YOURSELF?
WE KNOW WHAT THE PRESIDENT HAS
DONE.
>> CONOR HAS TRIED TO BE BOTH
SIDES OF EVERY ISSUE.
WE OUTED HIM.
HE TRIED TO BE FOR THE SECOND
AMENDMENT.
WE KNOW HE'S NOT.
AND I'M THE A PLUS RATED NRA
LIFE BEN FACTOR MEMBER.
WE KNOW HE'S NOT PRO LIFE.
HE SAID HE'S PRO CHOICE.
ON EVERY ISSUE, GOING DOWN
THE ISSUE BY ISSUE, WE'VE SEEN
THAT HE REALLY -- IF HE WERE TO
GET THERE HE WOULD VOTE WITH
NANCY PELOSI AND THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY ALONG WITH EVERYBODY ELSE.
NOT ONE DEMOCRAT VOTED FOR THAT
TUCKS
TACKS
TAXKS
TAX CUT BILL.
AND HE WOULD HAVE BEEN RIGHT
WITH THEM ON THAT.
HE'S TRYING TO DISGUISE HIMSELF
AS A MODERATE BUT HE'S FAR LEFT.
WE HAD MIKE DOYLE OUT THERE,
MARTIN O'MALLEY, ALL THE
LIBERALS HAVE BEEN OUT THERE TO
HELP HIM.
OUR GOVERNOR, THE MOST LIBERAL
GOVERNOR IN AMERICA, THEY'RE ALL
SUPPORTING HIM.
>> MARIA: WHAT CAN YOU TELL US
ABOUT THE READIES
ABOUT THE RE DIES
ABOUT THE RE DES
ABOUT THE RE DISTRICTING?
>> OUR STATE SUPREME COURT
GERRYMANDERED THE DISTRICT MORE
THAN WHAT THEY WERE COMPLAINING
ABOUT.
IT'S UNBELIEVABLE.
THEY GERRYMANDERED ME OUT OF MY
DISTRICT BY A MILE.
IT'S THROWING A MONKEY WRENCH
INTO THE SYSTEM BUT WE'LL GET
THROUGH IT.
WE'RE STILL FIGHTING THAT.
>> MARIA: WE'LL BE WATCHING.
WE KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT IS.
