SOTU-Democracts Stand for Nothing & Stood for Nothing · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: My fellow Americans, get ready for an incredible future, because
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the Golden Age of America has only just begun. It
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: will be like nothing that has ever been seen before.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Thank you, God bless you, and God bless you.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: Good Saturday morning to you, Ben Ferguson with you, and
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: there's just one story we're talking about. On today's Morning Update,
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: the President of the United States of America delivered one
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: of the most effective and powerful addresses I would argue
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: in my lifetime. The President wove his early accomplishments into
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: his agenda and his vision for the future. And for years,
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: failed politicians have said they needed legislation to secure the border,
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: especially on the Democratic side. Well, President Trump showed it
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: was not a matter of legislation, but a matter of will,
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: and the American people are clearly in favor of the
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: lowest border cross numbers that have ever been recorded in history.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: In February, the President also focused on the issues that
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: united the country around his campaign and the issues that
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: will continue, as he put it, to bring the country together,
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: such as lowering taxes, keeping men out of girls' sports,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: restoring American manufacturing, fighting crime in our cities, and restoring
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: national security. President Trump put a face to the policies
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: in an emotional and personal way, which is where the
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: biggest shock of the night came. As Democrats put their
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: face of anger and radical policies and positions that they
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: want to divide the country on display. Instead of standing
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: for things that you would assume everyone could be in
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: favor of, the Democrats refused to show support for lowering taxes,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: fighting child cancer, capturing terrorists, protecting girl athletes, law and order,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: and law enforcement officers. And that's just some of the
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: high whites. So what did the President say? And maybe
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: you didn't get to see the entire speech, we decide
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: to put together a montage of the biggest moments of
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: the night. Here's the President of the United States of America,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Donald J. Trump, in his own words.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: I returned to this chamber tonight to report that America's
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: momentum is back, our spirit is back, our pride is back,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: our confidence is back, and the American dream is surging
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: bigger and better than ever before. How we have ended
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: weaponized government, where as an example, a sitting president is
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: allowed to viciously prosecute his political opponent like me. How
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: did that work out?
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Not to?
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Not to? Within hours of taking the oath of office,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I declared a national emergency on our southern border, and
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I deployed the US military and border patrol through the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: invasion of our country. And what a job they've done.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: As a result, illegal border crossings last month were by
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: far the lowest ever recorded ever. To unshackle our economy,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I have directed that for every one new regulation, ten
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: old regulations must be eliminated, just like I did in
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: my very successful first day, and I have stopped all
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: government censorship and brought back free speech.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: In America's back.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: We've ended the tyranny of so called diversity, equity, and
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: inclusion policies all across the entire federal government, and indeed
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the private sector and our military and our country will
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: be worked no longer. I also signed an executive order
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: to ban men from playing in women's sports, and in
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: the near future, I want to do what has not
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: been done in twenty four years balance the federal budget.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: We're going to balance it.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: One point three million people from ages one hundred and
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: fifty to one hundred and fifty nine and over one
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty thousand people according to the Social Security databases,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: our age over one hundred and sixty years old. We
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: have a healthier country than I thought, Bobby, including to
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: finish one thousand and thirty nine people between the ages
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: of two hundred and twenty and two hundred and twenty
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: nine person between the age of two hundred and forty
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: and two hundred and forty nine, and one person is
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: listed at three hundred and sixty years of age, more
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: than one hundred years, more than one hundred years older
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: than our country. But we're going to find out where
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: that money's going, and it's not going to be pretty.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: So as the president has America behind him on stopping waste, fraud,
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: and abuse, which you heard him talking about right there,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Democrats were sitting on their hands. They were angry. So
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: let's go through the major list of all the things
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: the Democrats refused to clap for. It, refused to stand for.
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Many of them were actually not political things, but since
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: the President was talking about it, they decided to say
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: no to it. No matter what tax cuts. They are
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: not in favor of that and refuse to clap. The
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: border being closed, something they claimed they were in favor
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: of and said that they were willing to pass the
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: legislation to quote get done. They wouldn't clap for that either.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: Even foster children finding hope and success was something that
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: apparently Democrats are not in favor of. And then there
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: was the personal stories of children being murdered by illegal
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: immigrants and the parents being in the audience. They wouldn't
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: even clap for the family members. Police officers dying in
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: the line of duty being honored and their family something
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: they would not stand to honor. Supporting workers including US
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: steel workers with something apparently they couldn't clap for. And
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: even a child with brain cancer becoming an honorary Secret
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Service member was too much for the Democratic Party to say,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: we can stand with J. D. Daniels. The President had
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: no problem honoring him with a special surprise, and this
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: is what he said.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: DJ Daniel is thirteen years old and he has always
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: dreamed of becoming a police officer. In twenty eighteen, DJ
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: was diagnosed with brain cancer. The doctors gave him five
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: months at most to live. That was more than six
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: years ago. And tonight, DJ, We're going to do you
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: the biggest honor of them all. I am asking our
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: new Secret Service Director, Sean Kerran, to officially make you
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: an agent of the United States Secret Service.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: The clapping that you heard there was the Republicans, not
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: the Democrats. There was even also a surprise for a
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: teenager who had lost a family member, a father, getting
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: into West Point, something they couldn't clap for. Even the
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: men and women in uniform that traditionally do not clap
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: that are in attendance serving our armed forces knew that
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: was a moment where it was okay for them to
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: clap for that teen getting into West Point. Advancing our
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: military and defense structure was something Democrats couldn't support either.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: And then, in a more shocking moment, as the President
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: announced the apprehension and extradition of an ISIS terrorist linked
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: to the twenty twenty one abbigate bombing in Afghanistan where
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: thirteen Americans lost their lives, the Democrats couldn't be bothered
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: to clap when he talked about catching that terrorist of.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: The country tonight, and please to announce that we have
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: just apprehended the top terrorists responsible for that atrocity and
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: he is right now on his way here to face
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the swift Sword of American Justice.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Yes, Republicans were excited because the President broke news in
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: that moment. All the people in the chamber did not
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: know that that had just happened, and there was genuine
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: cheering for a moment knowing that that isis Terrace was
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: coming to America. That wasn't just on that issue. The
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: Democrats couldn't stand or clap. Bringing an American hostage home
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: from Russia because it was done under Donald Trump's time
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: in office was something they couldn't clap for. And even
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: the man who died because the Butler Rally assassination attempt,
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: when the President honored him, Democrats refused to honor that man.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: So if you want to know where we are right
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: now with the forty seventh President of the United States
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: of America and his time in office, these are the
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: issues the Democrats refused to stand for now the Democratic Party,
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: they clearly are out of touch with the American people.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: And one thing that's for sure is what Donald Trump
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: said at the State of the Union is an agenda
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: that is driven by the people, a mandate that the
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: people gave him to work on all of these issues.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: And I have a feeling the present's approval ratings will
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: go up significantly because of what he said to America.
