Morning had my breakfast, I will let you know what they think of the state of the country later in the show: Ainsley Missouri Senator Josh Hawley Good Morning. Yall have worked the past four years, trying to put things in place that the Trump voter place that the Trump voter wanted and Joe Biden signs all these executive orders more than the last five presidents combined. He got to twenty five Trump Obama. George Bush Clinton, the most anyone did was six here is Joe Biden and Jen. Psaki. Here is Joe Biden and Jen Psaki talking about executive orders about the sign two executive orders. The best way to describe it to undo the damage trump is done. Any historian will tell you he walked into the presidency at one of the most difficult moments in history that required additional executive action. He has proposed Covid 19 relief. He has proposed Covid 19 relief package. He has not held back or deal aid, putting forward legislation either. He is going to use the leverage every president in history has used executive action.
Ainsley the editorial board said this is a flawed substitute for legislation. You are one of the ones who voted for legislation voted for legislation. How do you feel about this? An attempt to govern the country by executive fiat? It is dangerous, the nature of it, these policies he is pursuing killing energy jobs, killing the energy sector of the United States, which is what he is doing, is doing. Imagine how many good paying american jobs that is going to cost anything radical action with women, sports and across the board. It is breathtaking what he is trying to do on substance, breathtaking hes trying to do without any democratic debate or legislation, and it shows you this is somebody who has a pretty far left agenda and somebody intent on imposing it. Somebody intent on imposing it on the country,
Brian. If you win the presidency and four years, that is the problem. The New York Times put out. It is going to get worse just when Mitch Mcconnell that reassurance, the filibuster, is not going to get blown up Joe Manchin and Senator Cinema going to stand away. They are leaning on reconciliation in the first case in point, will be the one dollar and eighty nine cents trillion package that has nothing to do with the pandemic, that they are going to jam down, that they are going to jam down, that they are going to jam down our throats with a simple majority. You know that is coming is coming soon as early as next week, the same situation to get around the sixty vote threshold in the Senate. But I dont have any illusions: the Democrats are going to use every trick in the playbook and I think they will try to get rid of the filibuster because they have a radical agenda to jam down the throats of the american people and lets talk about unity for a second unity and healing the Joe Biden, and the Democrats say we need is know what they are giving us. They are attempting total control to silence opposition.
