Trump's wife, Laura Trump, joins us live from the Republican National Convention to talk about the recent assassination attempt on President Trump and her reaction to the news that he survived the attack. She also talks about how she and her family are coping with the loss of her husband, Donald Trump Jr., who was shot in the head by an assassin on Wednesday, and how she is coping with her husband's death. She also discusses how her family is handling the aftermath of the attack, and what they are doing to support the President and his family as they move forward with the 2020 campaign. She is joined by Alina Haba, who is now on the Trump 2020 campaign team, and joins us to discuss her role on the campaign and what the campaign is doing to advance the President's agenda and get his 2020 campaign on the ground in Ohio and beyond.

00:01:43.000I was at the rally prior and I was going to go to Butler and then stayed home because I needed to with my children.
00:01:50.000Um, but it was emotional even from my living room.
00:01:53.000It was a, it was a tough day for everybody.
00:01:54.000So you first heard about it on television or?
00:01:57.000No, I got a phone call the minute it happened from somebody and, uh, and panicked.
00:02:01.000And then I spoke to the kids and we were just trying to get ahold of him.
00:02:05.000And it was, it was a really difficult, I would say hour and a half where we didn't really know what was happening and wanted to make sure he was okay.
00:02:46.000There are angels, and if you believe in God and divine intervention, there's no reason that that didn't hit him other than that his work is not done here.
00:03:05.000So one of, I'm sure your speech will address this, I don't want to spoil it, but you have a primetime slot on Thursday, which is a very big deal.
00:04:46.000And at the end of the day, I think the one thing that Keeps President Trump separate from all of that is that President Trump does what he thinks is best for America.
00:04:54.000He kind of puts that noise, listens to it, he considers it.
00:04:59.000But at the end of the day, he makes the decision of what's right.
00:05:02.000And JD Vance, I do believe and I stand behind President Trump's decision 110%.
00:05:07.000I think he is going to bring a new, fresh perspective.
00:05:57.000When you have nothing, you try and distract with noise, and I am the queen of ignoring the noise or just drop-kicking you if you try and do that to me, because I have no tolerance for that.
00:06:16.000I mean, if it wasn't for the convention, if it wasn't for Trump getting shot, if it wasn't for the VP pick, if it wasn't for Biden and it wasn't for the Secret Service failures, this would be the biggest story of the week.
00:06:28.000Let's take a step back and walk through it methodically.
00:06:31.000This was from some legal experts that really wanted to get Trump Even Alan Dershowitz has said, you know, they might get him on a technicality on the documents case.
00:06:40.000I know you can't comment on that portion, but this is a major legal victory.
00:06:56.000The victory was nothing less Then perfect, because it not only affects this case, much like the Supreme Court immunity decision, it affects January 6th, another Jack Smith hoax.
00:07:07.000The decision effectively said, and I'll say this in plain English for the American people, you cannot, Merrick Garland, take one of your buddies, Jack, put him out and say you're going to go get Trump.
00:09:14.000They kept on escalating against Trump from impeachment to indictment to conviction to now assassination attempt and he is stronger than ever before.
00:09:33.000I think that anybody who is nearly assassinated, I think that I could tell, not when I was on the plane with him on the way here, he was his typical self, working, hustling, bustling, laughing, joking, he was him.
00:09:48.000Now, there was a doctor on hand and he had to keep getting checked and there was all of that, but I will say that the night that I saw him come out to a crowd again, and I think the American people did see this as well, he looked Solemn.
00:10:01.000He looked moved and I was most certainly moved and and it's been hard for everybody but I know he's just frankly the most resilient person.
00:10:08.000He looked like a stoic Roman general that just survived like the front line of a war.
00:11:00.000Americans are tired and frustrated by a stalling economy, inflation, endless wars, and the relentless assault on our values.
00:11:06.000Thankfully, there's companies like Patriot Mobile that still believe in America and our Constitution.

00:12:03.000We have Congressman Wesley Hunt from the great state of Texas.
00:12:07.000So we were joking around, this is 2024 in Milwaukee.
00:13:04.000The first time I ran, he endorsed me, and then I realized that... He endorsed me twice, and then I realized the second that he decided to run again, the least I can do, the least I can do, is support him as early as possible.
00:13:17.000So by the time he finished that speech, we were already all in.
00:13:29.000We are in a moment right now where we thought that Congress was going to be low drama, because it's a political cycle.
00:13:37.000With what happened this last weekend, and I want your perspective from a military standpoint, from a Congress standpoint, was one of the most humiliating, unacceptable, but yet divine providence moments in American history.
00:14:00.000So I understand exactly what this means.
00:14:02.000And the resolve of somebody to get into the fight and go to that next mission after you've been shot at is something that I understand intimately.
00:14:10.000What President Trump did after he got shot at, the first thing he wanted to do was put his shoes back on.
00:14:16.000So, again, I'm the farthest from a military guy.
00:14:18.000he raised his fist and said, fight, fight, fight.
00:17:51.000Are we actually going to get people fired, pensions revoked, and potentially imprisonment for gross negligence if the investigation pans that out?
00:18:05.000So it's up to us in November to fire them all.
00:18:07.000And I hope that the American people are watching because if heads don't roll for this, then the American people have an opportunity to change this.
00:18:21.000Day one, President Trump will use Schedule F and anyone who is remotely involved in this, they can go and they could go back to PepsiCo and guard Mountain Dew.
00:19:22.000From your personal military standpoint, how do you explain the fact that 10,000 people stood stoically after bullets were fired and their president got shot?
00:19:59.000When this is true in families, this is true in communities and in life, when dad or the leader loses it, then all of a sudden you have mass chaos.
00:20:10.000And so when Trump came up and he was defiant and measured, the audience was taking a cue from him.
00:20:26.000But these are not all military people.
00:20:28.000These are farmers and ranchers and small business owners, and bullets are whizzing by them, and you re-watch the footage, they're just... They're hanging in there with our leader.
00:24:53.000Voters of color are understanding this.
00:24:54.000The idea that Trump is racist or the Republicans are racist.
00:24:57.000You can no longer believe that being at this RNC and seeing the premium that's being placed on diversity.
00:25:04.000So I don't know, I feel like the country is changing.
00:25:07.000More unites us than divides us as Americans, and I think that's becoming very clear.
00:25:11.000And I would say that you sometimes come after things, I don't want to say left, but can you describe yourself just so that it could add some context to the audience?
00:25:24.000And so for me, seeing the head of the Teamsters Union come out here on Monday night and get a standing ovation because President Donald Trump invited him to come here, And to speak truth to power about American workers, that's where I stand.
00:25:38.000I want what's best for the American family and the American worker.
00:25:40.000Yes, and workers have been deprioritized and capital has been elevated.
00:25:44.000I say that as someone who is a free market guy, but you have to be honest, right?
00:25:48.000You need a balance between labor and capital, and right now American workers are poorer than ever before.
00:25:53.000In my speech, I mentioned that homeownership is harder than ever, that family formation is harder than ever.
00:25:59.000What is your opinion, as someone who's a populist, of JD Vance getting the vice presidential nod. JD Vance is
00:26:55.000You saw Joe Biden's oldest friends and allies come out and try to effectively do a coup against him, which is something that I think for many Republicans are like, wow, Joe Biden's getting the Trump treatment, right?
00:27:08.000Suddenly the media that carried so much water for the Democrats turned on a dime on Joe Biden when they realized that he couldn't defeat Trump.
00:27:15.000You see people like President Obama and George Clooney and all the elites who knew that this was the situation with Joe Biden and hid it from the American people turn on a dime and abandon him and throw him to the wolves the minute that people realize this.
00:27:27.000And so I do believe we're living through a realignment where we have a diverse party.
00:27:34.000The Teamster Union keynote address is so remarkable.
00:27:38.000Do you think that the party of Mitt Romney would have had the Teamster Union even speak?
00:27:43.000And what I want to know from you, Charlie, is, okay, you have been wise to this from long before I was, long before many people who are waking up and smelling the coffee now.
00:27:55.000What is it like for you to have been a young person who figured this out so far ahead of not only your elders, but now a lot of your peers who are figuring out what you realized so long ago?
00:28:06.000I mean, I was very lucky because I believed all the pablum that I grew up with all of a sudden started to fall apart.
00:28:12.000And again, President Donald Trump deserves all the credit.
00:28:15.000He was the one that was not interested in these abstractions of the D.C.
00:28:21.000think tank consensus, and he saw reality.
00:28:24.000He didn't care about lofty ideas of free markets or, you know, always going to improve people's lives.
00:28:31.000He's like, well, why is it that we keep on sending our jobs to foreign countries?
00:29:24.000You can still buy stuff and trade stuff, but there's a fundamental distinction between a country and a colony, and that's the Republican Party has now decolonized the country, if you will, and it's like, no, we're actually a nation, and a nation is constituted of people, and the people need to be prioritized above abstractions or foreign countries.
00:29:43.000And what you're effectively pointing to is that Donald Trump took on not just the Democratic Party, but the elites in the Republican Party.
00:29:54.000But when you look at the Democrats and the elites of the Democratic Party that signed on to this disenfranchisement of the working class, the dispossession of the working class, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, all of these elites are still solidly in place and still totally directing the direction of the party.
00:30:11.000Yes, and the Democrat Party is captured by the intel agencies.
00:30:14.000The Democrat Party is the party of war.
00:30:16.000The Democrat Party is the party of neoliberalism.
00:30:19.000And yet, their base, as you well know, are not really neoliberals.
00:30:23.000And that's why you're starting to see base decay, and they're starting to come to the Republican Party, and they are welcome here.
00:30:28.000And again, they might disagree with us on some social issues, but there is no mistake that Donald Trump is the advocate for blue-collar America, for the muscular class.
00:30:37.000What Donald Trump has been able to pull off at this convention Donald Trump could have kept a relic of what once was as his VP.
00:30:47.000He decided to put a MAGA America First fighter that's a 1-2 combo.
00:30:57.000And I just want to address the social issues.
00:31:00.000You look at where Trump is on all of these social issues, and every position he has staked out is one that has 60% support among the American people.
00:31:09.000Whether it's 15 weeks for abortion, whether it's being pro-gay but very strict on trans issues, that is where the vast majority, not just of Republican voters, but Democratic voters are.
00:31:19.000In fact, Trump sounds a lot more like a New Deal Democrat than he does like a Mitt Romney type, right?
00:31:26.000We must understand though that the things that tie us together...
00:31:32.000We want strong families, we want strong communities, and I'm more conservative on those social issues, of course, and I think Donald Trump has allowed a great platform for this party to still represent, which are common sense values and issues, especially on the trend stuff, which is just insane what's happening.
00:31:50.000So then, what is your prediction, as someone who is not as into it as I am, of how this election will end up?
00:31:57.000Well, I can only tell you about the conversations I've been having with service workers since Saturday.
00:32:04.000And there's a lot of people waking up and saying, oh my God, the media really lied to me about this.
00:32:13.000And the image that President Trump made standing up and his first thought was, let me reassure the American people that I'm OK and stave off civil war.
00:32:23.000And again, I'm hearing from a lot of people who are typically Democrats that they feel very, very lied to.
00:32:29.000I think that's coming off of the debate where they saw Joe Biden and thought, oh my God, how is it possible that I didn't know that this was our president?
00:32:36.000And I hope that that's going to have a big impact.
00:32:38.000So, Batia, how could people support you, follow what you're doing at Newsweek?
00:34:07.000America's at the end stages of a Marxist revolution.
00:34:10.000The new documentary, Beneath Sheep's Clothing, is a stark commentary on the communist infiltration of American culture, pushing a Marxist ideology in our colleges, our churches, and media.
00:34:20.000Beneath Sheep's Clothing exposes the dark truth about the communist playbook.
00:34:25.000To overthrow America without firing a shot, we're told we'll be liberated from oppression.
00:34:29.000But instead, it takes away our freedoms to impoverish us and enslave us.
00:34:35.000The next step is a political revolution unless we the people wake up and reclaim our American values and freedoms.
00:34:46.000Don't miss the shocking documentary Beneath Sheep's Clothing.
00:34:50.000Get the strategies and solutions to stop this before it's too late.
00:35:53.000That could not be further from the truth.
00:35:54.000I know Paula and I can both attest to the amount of messages we receive daily from parents, from female athletes, from coaches who are dealing with this, but who are terrified to speak up for themselves, to speak up even for their daughters, which is a tragic reality.
00:36:09.000So Paula, we had you on the show, and you were formerly a swimmer with Biological Male, and so you are here advocating for Decency in female sports.
00:36:22.000President Trump has said that he'll do everything he can to protect female athletes.
00:36:27.000Tell our audience what Joe Biden did recently.
00:36:30.000It did not get the press coverage deserved regarding Title IX.
00:36:40.000But they recently rewrote Title IX to say that your sex is equivalent to your gender identity, meaning any man that wants to say he's a woman can now take over women's bathrooms, women's locker rooms, women's sports, all of those different opportunities.
00:36:53.000And essentially, he's encouraging for more men to do what William Thomas did to me and my teammates.
00:36:58.000And I think that that's just so disturbing, and we need to be aware of it.
00:37:01.000And it didn't get any coverage because the leftist media We never talk about it.
00:37:04.000So as an executive order, Joe Biden or his team did what exactly, Riley?
00:37:10.000He rewrote, for our audience that doesn't understand all the details here, bring it down into bite-sized bits here.
00:37:17.000So Title IX is a federal civil rights law that at one point prevented discrimination on the basis of sex on any educational program that receives federal funding.
00:37:24.000So colleges, even your local YMCA, your Young Men's Christian Association, enacted 52 years ago in 1972 under President Richard Nixon.
00:37:34.000But what Joe Biden has done illegally and administratively has taken this 37 word piece of legislation, only 37 words in its original implementation, rewrote it entirely, created a new policy that is now almost half a million words.
00:37:48.000From 37, now 1,577 pages long, that should tell you everything you need to know.
00:37:54.000But as Paula said, it allows men to have academic and athletic scholarships.
00:39:05.000And yes, it is completely crazy that I could be charged with sexual harassment for saying William Leah Thomas is a man, but him flashing me 18 times a week in our locker room doesn't constitute as sexual harassment.
00:39:31.000And how in the world can you defend what you can't even define?
00:39:34.000And it's so amazing, I had a lifelong liberal tell me that.
00:39:37.000She came up to me, approached me, someone who considers themselves, I mean a lifelong feminist, and she says, how can my party You both have such an important voice right now.
00:40:14.000I was so excited when I saw the platform number 17, big bold letters, no men in women's sports.
00:40:21.000I was thrilled to see this and understand this should matter to every single person.
00:40:27.000Woman, man, black, white, old, young, whether you have a daughter, whether you have a daughter who competes athletically or not, this should matter to every single person for the mere fact That what the Democratic Party is doing, in regard to the sports issue, but broader, the gender ideology movement as a whole, is denying objective truth.
00:40:48.000And understand, if we are willing to deny the most basic of truths, that being man and woman, a truth we have never struggled to understand in the nearly 250 years we've been established as a country, and certainly much longer than that, then there are no limits.
00:41:01.000There are no limits on what they will next ask us to deny.
00:41:04.000And not only ask us to deny, ask us to lie.
00:41:07.000This is a real-life scenario that we are experiencing as American people every single day, being told to say 2 plus 2 is 5 or else.
00:41:44.000I mean, you go into a bathroom and you're seeing these Men wearing dresses in the women's bathroom.
00:41:49.000There's girls being assaulted in bathrooms.
00:41:51.000I mean, this is every single level of society.
00:41:53.000If we do not know what a man is and what a woman is, we will not exist anymore.
00:41:58.000Every single person here around us, all around us, came from a man and a woman.
00:42:01.000And if you can't figure that out, I don't know what else to tell you.
00:42:04.000And so I want to pick your brain here just for a second, four or five more minutes.
00:42:09.000What advice would you give Trump and JD Vance to do better with young female voters?
00:42:15.000I think what young voters, people like Paula and myself, look, recent college graduates, of course we're women, what we want to hear is the willingness to take decisive action.
00:42:26.000I think that's something that our leaders, quote unquote, have failed to do as it pertains to women, as it pertains to our equal opportunity, as it pertains to our safety, our fairness, our dignity.
00:44:00.000Again, talking to my peers, people on my team, at the University of Kentucky where I swam, collegiately, We were a team of 40 girls, okay?
00:44:10.000And of my team of 40 girls, only two disagreed with everything that I'm saying right now.
00:44:16.000And that's not because we had a team of 38 staunch conservatives swimming at the University of Kentucky.
00:44:22.000No, we had a team of girls who didn't want their opportunities stripped from them by unelected bureaucrats and officials, people within the NCAA.
00:44:30.000And so, again, I think we're seeing this shift.
00:44:32.000I think people are waking up, whether it be the instances that happened, I mean, even just this week.
00:44:38.000I've been so thrilled to see friends that I've had, friends who have considered themselves apolitical even, who...
00:44:45.000I mean, I think the best verbiage here has, they've come out of the closet.
00:44:50.000They were closeted conservatives, but they're posting stuff on social media.
00:45:13.000Even my parents are saying, wow, he's so young.
00:45:16.000I mean, I know that people across both aisles are saying, Trump's on the older side, Biden's on the way older side.
00:45:23.000And I think that's what's really opening the doors for younger voters to be excited, to be excited about the future of the Republican Party.
00:45:29.000I think that's really where we're at, needing to push the future.
00:45:31.000And again, that comes with our generation and people that are younger.
00:45:35.000I know you have a lot of campus visits scheduled for the fall, right?
00:45:38.000I'm going to do everything I can to get both of you in front of as many young female voters to try to get them snapping out of how they're told to think and view the world, because a lot of them I think are actually very reasonable, and it is the elimination of women in the West.
00:46:02.000But one I'm very excited for, last year it was a turning point event.
00:46:05.000I went to Penn State University on October 10th.
00:46:09.000I had this idea, it was actually during Women's History Month, right, March, Women's History Month, we saw all these accolades and awards and recognition that should have gone to women, went to undeserving men, whether it was Hershey's with their Her-She's campaign, whether it was Rachel Levine, what have you.
00:46:26.000And I thought to myself, how can we get back to honoring real women, real women?
00:47:00.000It was great to be able to reach the students.
00:47:03.000This year, on October 10th, Real Women's Day, we have wonderful leaders in Congress, wonderful women leaders in the Senate, Senator Marsha Blackburn, Representative Lisa McClain, who just walked by the booth, who have been champions for this.
00:47:15.000They've introduced it on the House floor.
00:47:17.000They've introduced it in the Senate now.
00:47:18.000Real Women's Day is a national holiday, October 10th.
00:47:41.000I had a teammate who I hadn't talked to in two years since the Leah Thomas scandal call me on the phone and say, I'm so fed up with this, I'm voting for Trump.
