00:00:02.359 --> 00:00:06.120
Looking at our world from a theological perspective. This is

2
00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:13.439
the Theology Central podcast making Theology Central. Well, ladies and gentlemen,

3
00:00:13.720 --> 00:00:20.760
it is over. It is finished. Are you happy? Are

4
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:26.719
you depressed? Are you discouraged? Are you frustrated? Are you celebrating?

5
00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:30.160
What is your mood this evening? What is your mood

6
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:32.600
right now? What has you been your mood all day?

7
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:33.320
Has it been?

8
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:36.039
I mean, did you stay up all night? I mean,

9
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.600
how are you feeling now? For some people right now

10
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:40.880
that have no idea what we're talking about, especially depending

11
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:42.600
on when they hear this, so I guess I need

12
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:45.880
to give you a proper introduction. Right, good evening everyone.

13
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:53.920
It is Wednesday, November the sixth. Does that tell you

14
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:56.320
what's going on? You need a little bit more context.

15
00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:00.560
It is Wednesday, November sixth, twenty twenty four. It is

16
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:04.680
currently six fifteen pm Central time, and I'm coming to

17
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:09.760
you live from the Theology Central studio located right here.

18
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:12.439
In Abilene, Texas. Well.

19
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:17.079
Yesterday was election day here in the United States of America,

20
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:19.920
and I said numerous times that all I wanted was

21
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:20.799
it to be over.

22
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:23.439
I wanted it to be done with. I wanted to

23
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:23.840
move on.

24
00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:27.519
And to be fair though, I also had a I

25
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:31.239
had a dream, right, I had a wish, I had

26
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:33.920
a hope, and I wanted to wake up on November

27
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:36.599
the six, twenty twenty four, and find out that there

28
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:40.920
was not a Republican left in any governmental capacity. That

29
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:46.920
they every Senate, Congress, everywhere, mayor's governors, everywhere. There was

30
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:51.519
no Republicans left anywhere in government. Now, when I say that,

31
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:55.319
people like, oh, you're a liberal, you're a communist, you're

32
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:56.400
a Democrat.

33
00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:57.560
And that's see, that's not the case.

34
00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:02.280
I wanted all the Republicans to be voted out of

35
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:05.319
office so that when we woke up on Wednesday, November

36
00:02:05.359 --> 00:02:08.159
the sixth, everyone would look around, at least not everyone.

37
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:09.639
I should. Let me rephrase that.

38
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:13.319
Christians the church would wake up on November the six

39
00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:17.520
wake up today and go, well, there's no no more

40
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:21.240
looking to politics, no more looking to politicians, no more

41
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.800
looking to Washington, no more looking.

42
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:24.520
To anything like that.

43
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:27.199
We need to look to God because there's now no

44
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:29.159
political ally left for us.

45
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:32.680
We are left alone. It's just us and God.

46
00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:35.520
And I thought the best thing that happen to the

47
00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:39.719
church philologically speaking, let me make that very clear what

48
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:42.159
the best thing that would happen to the church is

49
00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:45.000
that the church woke up today and that's it. There's

50
00:02:45.039 --> 00:02:49.199
no more Republicans, There's nowhere to look except to God.

51
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:53.240
You don't have political allies, and that would possibly be

52
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:54.520
the first step.

53
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:59.680
In purifying the church, purging the church from this political.

54
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:06.879
This political ideology, this Christian nationalism, this stuff that has

55
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:10.719
so infiltrated Christianity. Because Christianity would wake up and be like, well,

56
00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:11.599
what do we do?

57
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:12.319
What do we do?

58
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.280
Stop looking to that, get back to being the church,

59
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.520
get back to acting like a Christian, get back to scripture, prayer.

60
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:19.840
Fasting, get back to that.

61
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:24.159
Then maybe everyone keeps talking about a revival. Then maybe

62
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:26.960
then there would be an actual spiritual revival. But I

63
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.520
think when people talk about a spiritual revival, they talk

64
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:33.599
about getting their favorite politician elected to office so that

65
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:36.439
they can enforce Christianity upon everyone else, and then we

66
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:42.159
call that revival. That's not revival. Revival is a spiritual thing.

67
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:45.800
So that I'm just gonna be honest, that's what I wanted.

68
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:49.560
I know, I knew obviously realistically that wasn't going to happen,

69
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:50.919
but I wanted that to be.

70
00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:52.759
I wanted that to be the case. I knew it

71
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:53.479
wasn't going to happen.

72
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:55.039
I knew it was going to wake up on November

73
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.120
the sixth, twenty twenty four, and Republicans would have won.

74
00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:01.240
You know, who knows how many how many different you

75
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:02.560
know places that would.

76
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:05.800
Have won, how many positions what you know? Who knows?

77
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:07.639
But I knew that there was going to be at

78
00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:10.159
least you know, a number of them that won, all right.

79
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:13.039
So that was my first wish, is that all Republicans

80
00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:16.279
would be gone. And my second wish was that would

81
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:19.839
wake up on November the sixth, twenty twenty four, and

82
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:22.920
there would be, in a sense, the end of the

83
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:28.519
Donald Trump experiment, Donald Trump era, the end of the

84
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:29.279
MAGA movement.

85
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:32.839
It would be over and we could move on because

86
00:04:32.839 --> 00:04:35.759
of all the chaos and the lies.

87
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.040
And the horrible things, and I could just go on

88
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:39.959
and that it would be over, that we could just

89
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.240
move past it once and for all.

90
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:43.800
We could be done.

91
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:45.959
That's what I'm just gonna be honest, That's what I

92
00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:49.000
was hoping it would be over. And again that not

93
00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:51.639
only maybe for my that there may be a little

94
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:56.279
bit more personal feelings there but set aside my personal

95
00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:57.360
feelings once again.

96
00:04:57.759 --> 00:04:58.319
The church.

97
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:02.720
The church is almost worship of Trump. It's almost never

98
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:06.879
ending making excuses though the church is overwhelming support for

99
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:09.920
Trump at times borderlines. I don't want to say it's

100
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.279
full blown idolatry, but at times it's very troubling, right,

101
00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:16.000
It's like, hey, we want a king, and we want

102
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:17.759
our king to be better than all the I mean,

103
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:21.399
it's very like, what are we doing? Why are we

104
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:23.319
not focused that this is not our home? We are

105
00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:26.120
pilgrims and stringers here. What are we doing and why

106
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:30.000
are we Why are we so committed and supporting and

107
00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:33.360
defending someone that causes the world to look at us

108
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:37.040
and go, your Christianity is broken. It's actually hurt the

109
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:40.279
church more than it's helped the church. So I kind

110
00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:42.560
of wanted to wake up and all Republicans are gone,

111
00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:45.360
and really, it's the end of the Donald Trump experiment.

112
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:46.000
It's over.

113
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.279
It's done, as old as he already is by the next.

114
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:52.319
Time he could run. Yeah, it's just it's just it

115
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:52.879
would be over.

116
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:56.720
It would be the end, and then Christians and the

117
00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:59.759
Church could just kind of we could wash our hands

118
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:03.839
all that has been going on since twenty sixteen. We

119
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:06.519
could just wash our hands and we could go where

120
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:07.399
do we go from here?

121
00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:09.199
And someone could hold up a Bible and.

122
00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:15.319
Go, what about this? What about this? Anybody would anybody

123
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:18.279
like this? And maybe someone'd go, what a great idea.

124
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:21.680
And it wouldn't be a Trump Bible that we're holding up.

125
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:25.600
It would be like an actual Bible, Okay, right, But

126
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:28.879
that's kind of what I wanted, That's what I kind

127
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.079
of envision That's what I was hoping for. Obviously a

128
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:34.399
little bit naive, because obviously I knew there were not.

129
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:36.360
All the Republicans were going to that.

130
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:38.480
I knew Republicans were going to win. I knew there

131
00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:40.600
would still be Republicans, but you knew. I wanted it

132
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:43.920
to be so overwhelmingly going the other way that it

133
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:47.079
would at least maybe cause the church to go, maybe

134
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:49.399
we've got to turn somewhere else. That was my hope,

135
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:50.959
and I wanted to be the end of the MAGA

136
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:51.920
movement and all of that.

137
00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:55.800
Well, we all know what happened. I stayed up to

138
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:58.920
what four or five in the morning. I watched it all.

139
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:03.839
I heard speech early this morning, all of it, and

140
00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:08.519
obviously Donald Trump will be the forty seventh president of

141
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:16.879
the United States of America, and I was like, wow, Wow.

142
00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:22.600
So let me say this for all of you Trump supporters,

143
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:27.120
for all of you who voted for Donald Trump. Congratulations,

144
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:30.959
you've got your man, you've got your party, You've got

145
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:34.759
it all. Congratulations you won. You voted for the person

146
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:38.120
you wanted to win. Congratulations to all of you, to

147
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:42.759
all Republicans, to all of you who support the MAGA movement,

148
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:48.040
Congratulations victory. You won great And I mean that, I

149
00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:50.319
mean that's sincerely great and wonderful. Now I don't sit

150
00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:52.759
there and say, oh, how dare you not vote for him?

151
00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:54.519
We've already talked about that. You can come at me

152
00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:56.319
all day and throw me into the eighteenth level of

153
00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:57.639
hell because I did not vote for him.

154
00:07:57.800 --> 00:07:58.920
Just remember I don't vote for.

155
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:02.079
Anyone because I don't play the little political reindeer games.

156
00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:05.959
All right, But that's a whole different story. But congratulations.

157
00:08:06.920 --> 00:08:09.040
So what we're gonna do this evening, and this is

158
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:12.240
I've done this historically through basically all of my ministry.

159
00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:16.199
Is the day after an election, doesn't matter if it's

160
00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:19.279
a Democrat who wins, doesn't matter if it's a Republican.

161
00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:22.639
Doesn't matter if I agree, doesn't matter if I disagree.

162
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:24.680
What I always try to do the next day.

163
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:29.519
I've done this for ever throughout my basically my entire

164
00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:33.360
Christian life. If I get the chance to speak the

165
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:36.679
day after an election, I almost inevitably try to turn

166
00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:41.639
everyone's attention back to scripture, back to God and say, Okay,

167
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.120
now all of that political stuff is over. Let's get

168
00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:47.399
back to this, right, And I try to challenge us

169
00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:49.879
and how we should act, how we should not act.

170
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:51.919
And try to do the right thing.

171
00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:55.799
So I look, on one hand, it's good to wake

172
00:08:55.879 --> 00:08:59.399
up on November sixth, twenty twenty four, and we don't

173
00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:01.879
have chaos. Right, we don't have I mean it is

174
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:04.159
good because I mean I think it's pretty much fair

175
00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:06.559
to say if Trump would have been losing any of.

176
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:08.639
Those states, it would be chaos. He would be claiming.

177
00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:11.399
I mean, he already said yesterday before, while it was

178
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:13.799
going he was claiming that fraud was already happening in

179
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:17.440
Pennsylvania before the votes were even counted. I mean, he

180
00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:19.799
was already claiming there was fraud, So he would already

181
00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:22.279
be saying that it's fraud, that the election is rigged,

182
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:24.720
and everybody would be saying they stole the election, and

183
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.279
it would be the same lies and the same chaos

184
00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:30.559
that happened before, and Christians would be buying into the

185
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:33.159
conspiracy theory and it would just be a chaos. But

186
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.000
is it funny though? When he wins, all the fraud

187
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.759
just disappeared. Hey, fraud is happening?

188
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:42.639
Oh I won? No no fraud, no fraud, no fraud

189
00:09:42.679 --> 00:09:45.960
here WI Now. Look, I'm glad, Kamala.

190
00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:48.879
I'm glad the Democrats seem not to be going about

191
00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:51.519
screaming and yelling that. So I'm glad we don't have

192
00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:53.519
to go through that again. I hope we don't never

193
00:09:53.559 --> 00:09:55.919
have to see another January the sixth ever happened.

194
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:57.320
So I'm glad for all of that.

195
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:00.679
And I am truly for those of you who are

196
00:10:00.679 --> 00:10:03.279
like really are into politics and you're like, oh, I

197
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:04.080
got to get Trump in.

198
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.559
Look, I am happy for you. You got what you wanted. Great.

199
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.320
I think you have Republicans now controlling all, I think everything,

200
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:14.799
so you're gonna get everything you wanted. And that's great,

201
00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:16.679
and we're going to see where it ends. But I

202
00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:18.879
think we do need to step take a step back

203
00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.320
tonight and at least consider some things. All right, So

204
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:23.000
here's what I.

205
00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:28.080
Want to do. Trump whens. Trump has one.

206
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.360
Nobody should be yelling and screaming about the integrity of

207
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:34.159
the election. We believe it was fair unless there's clear

208
00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:37.399
and clear evidence, but no one is challenging it.

209
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:38.279
So he has one.

210
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:40.080
We can get away from all of that yelling and

211
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:42.000
screaming and everyone.

212
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:44.840
Can just accept that. Now, what do we do well?

213
00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:47.600
I think in this particular case, I'm going to add

214
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:48.559
something to this.

215
00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:51.159
All right, Typically I would just go.

216
00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.919
Into some of my basic points that you're going to

217
00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:56.360
probably already be able to guess. But I'm going to

218
00:10:56.440 --> 00:11:00.200
do something different because I don't know. Five in the morning.

219
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:04.080
In the morning, I was listening to Night Sounds. That's

220
00:11:04.120 --> 00:11:08.519
a famous Christian radio program. I became very acquainted with

221
00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:10.799
it early on when I was a teenager. Came on

222
00:11:10.919 --> 00:11:13.240
late at night, and I listened to it throughout the nineties.

223
00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:17.000
And you can download the Night Sounds app and they

224
00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:17.840
have all of the you.

225
00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:20.480
Know, they have the archives and all. Yeah.

226
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:22.200
I'm not gonna sit there and get a whole dicussion

227
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:24.120
about the program, but I was listening to it and

228
00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:26.600
it's for you know, it's a program designed for late night,

229
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:31.200
and it was talking about change changes and how things

230
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:36.960
can dramatically change. Things can change rapidly, they can change drastically,

231
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:41.159
and they can just really be It can be confounding,

232
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:42.480
It can be somewhat confusing.

233
00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:43.879
You can be like, what do I do?

234
00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:48.240
Great change can be hard to process in your life. Well,

235
00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:51.240
if things go the way Trump has claimed they're going

236
00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:55.879
to go, a lot's going to change, and it's going

237
00:11:55.919 --> 00:11:58.879
to change rapidly, and it could be a little bit

238
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:01.360
overwhelming for all of us. So let's at least consider

239
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:06.440
and let me make it very clear possible changes possible.

240
00:12:06.799 --> 00:12:11.840
Trump made a lot of outlandish, bombastic statements of what

241
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:14.919
he's going to do on day one that I thought

242
00:12:14.919 --> 00:12:17.559
would be disturbing to people. But obviously that's what most

243
00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:20.120
people want, because I mean, he won. He won not

244
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:22.559
only the electoral college, I think he won the popular vote.

245
00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:25.320
I'd have to see the final count for the popular vote,

246
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:27.279
but it looks like that's what the people want. So

247
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:30.240
some of you, you'll be welcoming this change. Other of

248
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:32.799
you may be like, what is happening? But there's a

249
00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:35.279
lot of possible things to consider. So I just did

250
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:36.399
a little research.

251
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.399
To find some of the things.

252
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:41.200
All right, if Donald Trump were to win the twenty

253
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:43.480
twenty four election, Now this is something that was put

254
00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:45.679
together prior to him winning. So I think we can

255
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:48.159
say now that Donald Trump has won the twenty twenty

256
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:52.759
four election, based on his own statements, here are some

257
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:57.159
of the dramatic changes that may occur over the next

258
00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:01.840
four years. All right, So I went to multiple sources

259
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:06.320
that gathered his statements himself and said, okay, here's some

260
00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:08.000
of the dramatic changes that could occur.

261
00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:10.279
Number One, immigration policies.

262
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:16.039
Trump has promised to restore strict immigration policies, likely intensifying

263
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:19.519
border security and reinstating measures such as the Remain in

264
00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:20.559
Mexico policy.

265
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:23.039
He may also seek to implement.

266
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:29.919
Large scale deportations of undocumented undocumented immigrants. So we could

267
00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:34.360
see mass deportations take place if what he said is true.

268
00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:37.399
So two sources. I'm going to read from one, then

269
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:40.559
I'll read the second source. There'll be some over overlap here.

270
00:13:40.679 --> 00:13:44.720
We could see mass deportations, and it could be have

271
00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:48.039
a profound change and an impact on everything.

272
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:48.679
And I don't know.

273
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:50.919
How you're going to view that I don't know. You

274
00:13:51.600 --> 00:13:53.879
may be one of the people's in there celebrating.

275
00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:55.000
Get them out, get them out.

276
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:58.159
You may be celebrating others maybe like what is happening?

277
00:13:58.679 --> 00:13:59.159
Who knows.

278
00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:03.000
But we'll see if maast deportations occur, we'll see. Second

279
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:06.840
Justice Department In law enforcement, Trump has expressed frustration with

280
00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:09.919
the current Justice Department. If elected, he may attempt to

281
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:15.399
restructure federal law enforcement agencies, appoint officials aligned with his policies,

282
00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:20.120
and he's also indicated support for enhancing law enforcement power

283
00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:24.720
to counter crime. Number three, Economic and trade policy. Trump

284
00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:27.679
has proposed policies to bring more manufacturing jobs back to

285
00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:32.480
the US, potentially through new tariffs on imported goods, especially

286
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:37.120
from China. This approach could reshape trade relations and impact

287
00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:43.759
global supply chains. Now, if he starts putting tariffs, ladies

288
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:46.399
and gentlemen, those tariffs could have profound impact, not only

289
00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:50.120
on supply chain. You may want to be watching how

290
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:53.200
much things cost because it could have a profound impact

291
00:14:53.240 --> 00:14:56.240
on your Everybody thinks that maybe now that he's in office,

292
00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:58.399
it's going to fix everything if he goes with this

293
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.879
tariffs program. There's plenty of economists out there going this

294
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:03.120
could be a total disaster.

295
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:05.679
Don't know if that's true or not. We'll have to see,

296
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:07.759
but that's a change. You need to be prepared for.

297
00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:12.639
Social policies. In education, Trump has shown interest in regulating

298
00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:16.639
school curricula to prevent so called woke ideology, which may

299
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:20.840
lead to federal level directives in education, and may also

300
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:25.440
support policies that prioritize parental control of our educational content.

301
00:15:25.720 --> 00:15:30.279
The entire educational system could be just turned upside down.

302
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:33.600
Now many of you will be like, yes, yeah, okay, well.

303
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:35.559
Again, change for change.

304
00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:37.799
Sometimes you get change and the change is not the

305
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:40.799
change you necessarily thought you were going to get, but change.

306
00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:41.480
Is possibly coming.

307
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:48.879
Foreign policy, Trump has promised a more isolationist approach, potentially

308
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:53.799
reducing US involvement and international conflicts. He may prioritize policies

309
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:57.159
to limit foreign aid and focus on America first and

310
00:15:57.240 --> 00:16:01.919
international alliances. So again, you may be for this. They

311
00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:06.200
could have profound impact on our involvement, which may be

312
00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:08.519
good if we reduce the involvement, but it could also

313
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:13.279
create difficulties and problems with maybe some of our allies.

314
00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:18.879
There's going to be consequences here, right next, Judiciary and

315
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:23.799
Supreme Court. Given the opportunity, Trump could appoint more conservative

316
00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:26.639
judges at both the federal and Supreme Court level, which

317
00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:28.879
could lead to a long term shift in rulings on

318
00:16:28.919 --> 00:16:30.360
issues like abortion, gun.

319
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:32.360
Rights, and executive power.

320
00:16:32.679 --> 00:16:35.360
So we could see some changes in the judicial makeup

321
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:39.879
in our country. Climate and environmental policies. Trump has historically

322
00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:43.759
prioritized deregulation and the energy sector and has been a

323
00:16:43.799 --> 00:16:47.240
skeptic of climate change initiatives. A second term could see

324
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:50.519
a rollback of current climate policies, with an emphasis on

325
00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:55.440
promoting fossil fuels over renewable energy sources could be a

326
00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:56.639
major change there.

327
00:16:57.039 --> 00:16:57.559
Healthcare.

328
00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:01.840
Trump has discussed dismantled parts of the Affordable Care Act

329
00:17:02.159 --> 00:17:06.440
without a comprehensive replacement plan, which may impact health care

330
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:11.839
access and insurance coverage for millions of Americans. There could

331
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:13.920
be millions of Americans that are like, wait a minute,

332
00:17:13.920 --> 00:17:15.480
what just happened to my health coverage?

333
00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:17.359
Now? Is that going to be Some of you may

334
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:19.839
say it's good, some of you may say it's bad,

335
00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:22.799
but it's going to be change. I'm not here making

336
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:24.119
a judgment on any of these.

337
00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:27.480
What I am simply saying is change could be coming,

338
00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:32.200
and sometimes the change isn't the change that you thought.

339
00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:35.319
And was wanting. We'll have to see, all right.

340
00:17:35.960 --> 00:17:40.160
These potential changes would depend heavily on Congressional cooperation, as

341
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:44.359
well as legal challenges that could arise from more controversial initiatives.

342
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:46.640
The balance of power in Congress and shifts in public

343
00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:50.279
opinion would also play key roles in determining the feasibility

344
00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:51.960
of these actions.

345
00:17:52.119 --> 00:17:52.960
All right, but.

346
00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:56.440
There's another article. This one was published at six oh

347
00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:59.880
seven this morning. What Trump said he would do on

348
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:05.240
day one if re elected. Former President Donald Trump is

349
00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:07.319
set to return to the White House after he was

350
00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:11.640
projected to win the presidential race, defeating Vice President Kamala Harris.

351
00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:15.799
During Trump's third campaign for the presidency, he laid out

352
00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:18.240
many of the things he would do on his first

353
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:22.440
day back in office. Here's what Trump said he would

354
00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:27.440
do on day one. Number one, be a dictator for

355
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:30.640
the day. Trump raised new alarms last year when he

356
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:33.240
referred to himself as a dictator, but only on day

357
00:18:33.279 --> 00:18:34.319
one during a.

358
00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:35.680
Town hall in Iowa.

359
00:18:35.960 --> 00:18:39.319
When asked by Fox News Sean Hennity if he was

360
00:18:39.359 --> 00:18:43.119
promising that he would never abuse power as retribution against anybody,

361
00:18:43.319 --> 00:18:47.880
Trump responded, except for day one. When asked what he

362
00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:50.799
meant by that, Trump said, I want to close the border,

363
00:18:50.799 --> 00:18:53.519
and I want to drill, drill, drill. We're closing the border,

364
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.799
and we're drilling, drilling, drilling. Trump said after that, I'm

365
00:18:56.839 --> 00:19:01.079
not a dictator, So that's a little bit kind of confusing.

366
00:19:01.160 --> 00:19:04.799
But okay, so he's going to be a dictator in

367
00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:06.599
some way for at least one day.

368
00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:08.000
I don't know what that means.

369
00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:11.559
It's to me that when you have a president say

370
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:14.000
he's going to be a dictator for one day, that

371
00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:17.319
seems somewhat troubling if you believe in our form of government.

372
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:20.720
But okay, Number two, he's going to fire the special

373
00:19:20.759 --> 00:19:23.640
Council who indicted him if he returns to the White House.

374
00:19:23.680 --> 00:19:26.640
Trump vowed to fire Jack Smith, the special Council who

375
00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:30.880
has brought two federal cases against him, within two seconds.

376
00:19:31.640 --> 00:19:34.599
We got immunity at the Supreme Court, so it's easy.

377
00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:38.160
I would fire him within two seconds. He'll be one

378
00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:40.799
of the first things addressed, Trump said on a call

379
00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:44.359
to the Hugh Hewitt Show on October the twenty fourth.

380
00:19:44.599 --> 00:19:47.759
Trump has also said he would punish the prosecutors and

381
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:52.200
judges overseeing his multiple criminal cases as he's focused his

382
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:53.920
third presidential.

383
00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:55.480
Campaign on retribution.

384
00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:59.079
So, hey, any of those people who supposedly went after him,

385
00:19:59.279 --> 00:20:02.799
he's going to go after them. So do we care

386
00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:04.880
about law and order? Well no, people say it's not

387
00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:08.000
law and order, it was political. Well okay, so if

388
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:11.079
they go after the person you don't like, it's political.

389
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:13.279
But if they were going after someone you didn't like,

390
00:20:13.559 --> 00:20:14.680
it would be justice and.

391
00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:15.759
It would be law and order.

392
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:18.599
You see the inconsistency that can happen here. But okay,

393
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:21.119
So he's going to be a dictator for day one.

394
00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:23.240
We don't know exactly what that means, and he's going

395
00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:26.400
to basically go after anyone who did anything to it

396
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:29.599
