From President Trump inviting Haley supporters to join the MAGA
movement.
He invited him in a Truth Social post today.
So let's chew on this.
We have Dave Bossy, president of Citizens United.
He's former Trump 2016 deputy campaign manager and Co chair
of the RNC convention.
We have to be nice to him.
And we have Washington Times pain and editor,
Fox News contributor
Charlie Hurt. And we have Katie
pavlichtownhall.com editor and Fox News contributor.
That's clear. They lost your Fox News,
but I put it back in.
It's like, but how does Dave Bossy get the longest
title?
Can you believe it? He has.
So he has all these tiles.
It's really good 'cause he won an election.
It's, it's, it's because, yeah,
OK, won the election and he's running the convention.
So we're all sucking up to him
trying to get good seats,
unlike where the Vermont Republicans are going to be.
They're going
to be. Yeah, you see the stage.
That's very good. So Bossy,
I'll just try to skim read this thing.
This is Trump on Nikki Haley today.
Truth social. Nikki Haley got trounced last night record setting
fashion,
despite the fact that Democrats are allowed to vote in
Vermont,
as we just pointed out,
blah, blah, blah. He then he says,
at this point, I hope she stays in the race
and fights it out in the end.
Well, that's not happening. And then he says he's this
is the key point.
Dave. I would further like to invite all the Haley
supporters to join the greatest movement in the history of
the nation.
All right, so not Miss Haley per SE,
but the Haley's supporters, David Bosley,
how does that work? What you read into that whole
statement?
I think it's an incredibly smart thing to do.
It's, it's, it's reaching out to those supporters of Nikki
Haley's,
asking him to join his his movement.
And, and look, the conservatives,
whether it's in 2000, 2008 with John McCain,
Mitt Romney, George Bush, for that matter,
the conservative movement was always assumed that we would fall
in line.
And this year we have the establishment saying,
hey, we're not going to fall in line.
That's what Nikki Haley basically was saying.
And now it's become a binary choice.
It is between Donald Trumpp
effort to save America and the carnage that is America
under Joe Biden.
And the American people now will have a simple choice
between Donald Trump,
Save America, make America great again agenda versus more of
the socialist agenda of Joe Biden.
And that's really what this is going to be about.
And that's why those Nikki Haley supporters are going to
come to join the Trump movement over time.
I mean, Charlie, I just,
you know, you look at the polls,
at least the New York Times poll
of those who voted for Trump in 2020,
ninety, 7% are going to vote for him again,
only 83% are going to vote for Biden.
By the way, Biden lost huge chunks in his primaries.
He sure did, right? I mean,
people that either voted for the little candidates or voted
whatever it's called
unaffiliated or we don't like Joe Biden or whatever the
the numerator was.
The point is this unity stuff I keep hearing from
certain former campaign managers of certain Republican presidents.
I don't want to name names,
but, you know, I'm talking about that.
We can't unify the the party.
What do you make of these arguments?
Oh, I think that that's
I think that that, you know,
the media has spent so much time focusing on the
divisions in the Republican Party and they completely ignore real
profound divisions in the Democrat Party.
But but no. And and you know,
the idea that somehow Nikki Haley
that that Donald Trump is the one that needs to
sort of break Brett,
extend the olive branch to Nikki Haley.
I don't think that I think she's overstating how much
her influence is within the party.
You know, the, the fact that there have been,
there are these people who don't like Donald Trump in
the party and in politics.
No duh. That's been the truth from the beginning,
which is the key to his popularity.
It's why everybody outside of Washington,
outside of politics loves the guy.
And so I, you know,
I think that that and of course,
half of them were are Democrats anyway,
Democrat voters who are playing in these other.
But you know, another thing I get what people don't
like Trump because he says things.
But you got to admit the guy is so funny
when he talks about Nikki Haley in record setting fashion
losing as if she set out to set these new
records of losing, which by the way,
she did, she broke a lot of records for losing.
It was extraordinary if she,
I don't know if she meant to or not,
but she's going to go into the history books for
some of these lawsuits.
Yeah, I guess you will.
Katie Pavlich. It's not your father's or
grandfather's Republican Party. It isn't the Republic.
I worked for Ronald Reagan those 40 years ago.
It's a Reagan started this stuff,
but it's different. This is a populist party.
This is a party going at,
you know, this, this is a party going after blacks,
Hispanics. I was reading a quoting from Jason Riley's article
in the Wall Street Journal today about how Trump is
piling up Hispanic numbers and black American numbers.
And the basic point is they want pay increases,
not pay cuts. And Biden has delivered them pay cuts.
So the issue of unity,
I think, misses the point.
Trump is going to build a bigger coalition.
I mean, that's unity, and it's based on success.
Well, look, every election is going to be a tight
election,
especially in places like Michigan and Wisconsin.
So getting and gobbling up as many votes as you
possibly can is obviously a good thing.
But you're right, Larry. You know,
Donald Trump has treated this primary like the general election
from the beginning.
And I thought the meeting that he had with the
Teamsters a couple of weeks ago was really interesting in
Washington,
DC, in Michigan, he has,
you know, an opportunity to peel off a lot of
these voters who are very upset with Joe Biden's electric
vehicle mandates,
which are going to put a lot of people out
of work,
not to mention making their lives more expensive.
And then, you know, they talk a lot about the
unity of the Republican Party.
But you mentioned and Charlie mentions the dysfunction the Democratic
Party.
It's been completely under reported how many people have voted
uncommitted against Joe Biden,
100,000 people in Michigan, 20,000 people in North Carolina and
Michigan in particular.
You know, Joe Biden ran the first time as well,
the third time I believe it was for president as
this moderate unifier who was going to,
you know, bring the country together.
And he's he's really been a far left president and
now he has this problem in a place like Michigan
that he has to win if he wants to win
re election, where he has to kowtow to Rasheeda Talib,
who is a member of the squad promoting a pro
terrorism agenda in that state.
So he's the one who has to figure out how
he's going to keep that coalition together while also not
allowing coalitions that have been typically for Democrats,
black voters, Hispanic voters from falling apart as well.
I mean, you look at the fact that he's down
to
66% among African American voters,
49% with Hispanics with the border being an issue they
think is helping them with that demographic.
And you know, they don't have a lot of places
to go in terms of the timing here before the
election.
All right, well, we're having so much fun.
I want this panel to hold over because I got
a couple other things I want to hash through.
And we all have to be nice to David Bossy
because he's right in the convention.
But we we save type.
Please go get a cup of coffee.
