2022 is coming up 2024, we know former president Trump is considering a run.
We know your name is atop that list as well,
where does that all sit in your mind right now?
>> It just sits when people always bring up my name,
I mean we've got a lot going on.
And I think the thing about this opportunity in 22,
obviously I've got to win my race, but, we're invested in congressional races,
state legislature and school board races.
>> So I'm gonna try one more time.
>> [LAUGH] >> If he runs in 22,
[CROSSTALK].
It's amazing, I'm genuinely curious, so if he runs, do you run?
How do you make that decision?
>> Nice try man, we're here talking and having fun here, so it's all good.
>> Nice try, you asked me a direct question and I totally know the answer,
but like nice try, we're here to have fun.
I mean that is after all what political media is supposed to be
bringing on a governor who definitely wants to be president and
just having fun talking about top gun and stuff like that.
Not answering the direct question.
Which by the way, this is not just like you might be thinking, well,
what does it really matter?
He'll run if he's gonna run, it will be in six months.
No, we need to understand if he has already made the decision to run,
that means that we need to interpret his actions differently,
his statements differently.
If he's doing whole news cycles like demonizing the LGBTQ community and
he definitely wants to run then it kind of seems like he thinks that's his way
to raise his profile nationally as a Republican which is of course disgusting.
These are important questions that need to be answered Viviana and
he's not gonna do it.
By the way,
that was like the only follow up question I've seen from Fox News right there.
>> And that really tried, they tried.
And if daddy lets him run then he might run, but we don't know yet
what daddy said.
So when they go kiss his ring we'll see what happens.
And people are waiting for Trump's fall from grace,
the guy has fallen a lot but somehow keeps getting up.
It's kinda scary but we'll see what happens as we get closer to it.
I think we all know that DeSantis is dying to get into that seat.
It's gonna be a scary day just as scary as the Trump's in office again.
Maybe even a little more scary.
Because I feel like DeSantis is a little bit experience as a career politician and
knows how to kind of move the levers a little bit better.
So, scary times.
>> Yeah in terms of stakes, I think the worst case scenario like
the worst it could possibly get I think would be worse under Trump.
But I think it's less likely to get to that worst possible place
than it is under DeSantis to get to a really really really bad place.
That's a little bit worse than what Trump, you know, being Trump and
not being very effective and
bringing in lackeys that can't get the job done like the first term was likely to do.
So there's multiple terrible cases, I think DeSantis would be a pretty bad one.
By the way, I just want to get too just a little bit more video of Peter Hoeg says,
so he's the co host on Fox and Friends there, take a look at his attempt to re
reinterpret a classic trump quote partially because people really do
appreciate if you're willing to stand up and fight for them man,
they'll walk over broken glass to support you for sure.
I mean it's that's the same mentality that when donald trump said I could shoot
someone on Sixth Avenue because he went out and fought for them.
That's not what that meant, that's not what that meant.
His ideas that he could kill someone because he just fights so hard.
No, he was admitting openly that these people cannot tell when they're
being conned like they live, they have no ability to decipher reality and
he could do anything he wants and also for him is the exact opposite of what
Pete Hegseth like millionaire political commentator said it proves trucks.
Yeah, so stupid.
Anyway, final point that I want to make on the DeSantis part of this is it's not
just de Santis that does this Clearly lots of politicians don't
want to admit that they have higher ambitions.
And I get it in some ways they think that they'll get a better news cycle if they
wait or something.
But I will say this is a party that loves to pretend that their guys are alphas and
they don't back down for nothing to admit the truth.
Like literally admit the truth.
You're hiding your ambitions.
That is like the least alpha thing to do.
And maybe it's just that he's worried about trump.
Maybe it's what you said he's watching these hearings and he's like desperately
hoping that something happens that takes trump down so that he can run without
trump being there, he might run with him there, but he's definitely scared of him.
Let's be clear about that.
I don't think he's gonna run if if trump runs because trump still has a big fan
base of people that are literally just fans from, you know his shows on tv and
the apprentice or whatever they just carried over and you're right, if you're
really such a tough guy then what's wrong with the truth man come out with it?
Say what you want.
If you're really this politician who cares people you want people to walk over broken
glass for you.
But you won't say whether or not you're gonna run, come on this is just for fun.
Okay well you just answered our question then.
They kind of did, and
you could see on his face the fact that he can't help himself from smiling.
Now he's he wants to run.
Yeah.
