Transcript

00:00:00.000 First 100 days.
00:00:00.820 How about we do that?
00:00:01.400 Let's do it.
00:00:01.900 Mr. Trump.
00:00:02.540 Let's see how he's done.
00:00:03.380 By the way, just to be fair, today is 99.
00:00:07.320 Tomorrow is 100.
00:00:08.940 But we're a little bit ambitious.
00:00:10.980 You know, as ambitious people, why don't we do it a day before everybody else will do it?
00:00:14.860 And unless if tomorrow, you know, Putin and Ukraine go to peace, Hamas, Israel, Iran, figure it out.
00:00:22.760 The tax plan is launched and it's lowering taxes.
00:00:26.640 Tariffs with China scored away.
00:00:28.040 Unless if everything gets scored away, our grade today is for the 100 days.
00:00:31.860 Rob, this is Brett Baier giving how President Trump was doing the first 100 days compared to his first term.
00:00:39.000 Go ahead, Rob.
00:00:40.000 President talking tariffs and the economy.
00:00:42.100 If you look at our new Fox News poll at 100 days job approval compared to other presidents,
00:00:48.140 there you see the president at 44 percent and you see his first term at 45 percent at this mark, the 100 day mark.
00:00:56.320 We have other new polls that are revealing some concerns about the economy.
00:01:00.840 Let's talk about that.
00:01:01.920 The pop.
00:01:02.740 OK, so that's that.
00:01:04.000 Rob, I got another one.
00:01:05.180 If you could show as well this this next one, if I can pull up.
00:01:10.320 Anyways, if I don't have it here, I thought I had it here on my computer.
00:01:13.920 OK, since I don't have it, I'll go to anybody.
00:01:16.360 Tom, first 100 days.
00:01:18.100 Trump, what do you give him?
00:01:19.840 Overall, first 100 days, I give it a C plus and I get there this way.
00:01:24.780 An A minus on the plan, but a C minus on the execution.
00:01:28.940 I thought I got too many things going at once, picking on the Fed, Powell.
00:01:33.440 But I gave the plan an A, but the execution got messy.
00:01:36.480 And so overall, I give it a C plus.
00:01:38.060 Adam.
00:01:39.180 I'm right there with Tom, actually, C plus, because, you know, it's almost like a team
00:01:43.140 that starts off 10 and oh, you know, my beloved Miami Heat start off 10 and oh, and then all
00:01:47.880 of a sudden they go on a 10 game losing streak.
00:01:49.620 But I didn't just go like this is the grade.
00:01:51.540 I actually went sort of by the most important issues that he talked about.
00:01:55.580 The economy, inflation, immigration, the border, wokeness, DEI, you know, foreign policy,
00:02:01.860 peace through strength, crime, law and order, energy dependence.
00:02:05.260 So each of these categories got a different grade.
00:02:07.660 And I thought that the first, I don't know, month was awesome.
00:02:12.060 He was signing all these executive orders.
00:02:14.280 He's doing his thing.
00:02:15.540 And then April 2nd, Liberation Day, where he liberated America of like $5 trillion worth
00:02:23.200 of wealth and nobody saw it coming.
00:02:26.180 So I don't understand the methodology for what he was doing with Liberation Day.
00:02:31.560 It would have been better if he just dressed up as Liberace Day and started doing a
00:02:35.080 samba dance or something like that.
00:02:36.600 All right, cool.
00:02:37.140 We'll deal with that.
00:02:37.720 But Liberation Day has backfired.
00:02:40.920 So not not not improving right now.
00:02:44.340 I'm in the line of C only because it has not been a total catastrophe and it hasn't been
00:02:48.740 a smashing success with only W's.
00:02:50.760 It started off strong with pardoning the Jan Sixers and fulfilling a campaign promise to
00:02:54.700 right that wrong.
00:02:55.680 And as much as humanly possible, you got RFK in and you got RFK and Tulsi doing their thing,
00:03:01.100 which is fantastic on the immigration issue.
00:03:04.620 He's going hard being stopped by the courts, but going hard nonetheless and sensitizing
00:03:08.700 America to how serious the problem is and how compromised and weaponized the courts are
00:03:13.700 where it gets weak is I'm going to focus on the Epstein just because as far as I'm concerned,
00:03:18.800 it's sort of a that was a litmus test promise of the campaign where Pam Bondi illustrating
00:03:23.860 that she's either over her head, unqualified, or there's something more sinister going on,
00:03:28.580 making bold and big promises and then fumbling those and leading to more questions than answers.
00:03:34.120 Like they were supposed to release those documents.
00:03:35.680 And now instead of releasing the documents, the Epstein files, the lead witness is dead
00:03:39.500 within the same period of time.
00:03:40.720 And so you'll have your questions about that.
00:03:42.840 But that was a campaign promise that by not fulfilling will lead to skepticism among the
00:03:47.360 hardest of the hardcore base.
00:03:49.180 But by and large, it's been transformational thus far.
00:03:52.040 There's room for improvement.
00:03:54.220 And if he starts off with an A, then where does he go from there?
00:03:56.760 Well, as we all know, the last time he was the president, he came in that he was being spied on
00:04:02.260 and the Russia collusion thing happened.
00:04:03.880 He couldn't be the president because he had to worry about that for four years.
00:04:07.940 Now that he comes in, he has to worry about the four years of just the destruction that
00:04:12.360 the Biden administration, I don't want to say Joe Biden, his administration did to get us
00:04:16.380 all those things at him.
00:04:17.080 The invasion where all the mass deportation, all the inflation, the economy, he was left
00:04:21.640 with crap.
00:04:23.520 But if you think about it, the border is secured.
00:04:26.460 Have you seen the border shut down?
00:04:29.080 OK, mass deportation.
00:04:30.580 I don't give it.
00:04:31.160 I want everybody to get the hell out of here.
00:04:33.420 And we're going to get to the judge stuff later.
00:04:35.820 Terrorists reinstated, which guys, these deals behind closed doors, the India, the Apple
00:04:40.020 thing, everything's happening.
00:04:41.380 Everybody's panicking.
00:04:42.180 They need to chill with all that.
00:04:44.280 Signing the federal law, banning biological men from playing with women.
00:04:47.300 And all the stuff, declaring cartels, terrorists and all that.
00:04:51.240 I think he's doing a good job.
00:04:52.540 I'm going B minus because I'm with Viva again.
00:04:55.400 I still believe like the accountability matters.
00:04:58.660 And if we're going to be clean house, you have to clean all of it.
00:05:01.460 Vinny, why isn't he an A?
00:05:02.980 Because you just were like, he did this.
00:05:04.180 He did this.
00:05:04.680 Because I'm with him.
00:05:06.380 When you promised something to me, and you know, you guys know where I stand when it
00:05:10.860 comes to children and what they've done to children.
00:05:12.780 And you just nailed it.
00:05:13.700 The number one accuser of Epstein, of Ghislaine Maxwell, of Prince Andrew, the last one, she
00:05:20.780 suicided herself.
00:05:22.220 Are you, after she was hit by a bus, she looked like she was beaten up, she recovers, and then
00:05:28.120 she wants to kill herself after she wrote a tweet saying she wouldn't do it.
00:05:31.300 That, to me, is the biggest travesty.
00:05:33.280 And I've said it before.
00:05:34.100 Lord, let justice be done and may the heavens fall.
00:05:36.360 I don't care.
00:05:36.840 If we're built on that blackmail and that disgustingness, and you promised it to me, that's a B minus
00:05:42.040 for me because I want them all exposed because that's what we're sitting on.
00:05:45.700 B minus.
00:05:46.180 So let's go through the way I'm grading this.
00:05:48.880 Okay?
00:05:49.700 To me, if you look at the way we grade everybody that's here with us, it goes off of A.
00:05:54.480 A stands for attitude.
00:05:55.660 I love his attitude.
00:05:56.540 I think he's having fun.
00:05:57.900 I think he's playing loose.
00:05:59.080 I give him an A for attitude.
00:06:00.880 Effort.
00:06:01.340 He's working his ass off.
00:06:02.680 Nobody is sitting there wondering if this guy's working or not.
00:06:05.440 Period.
00:06:06.640 Teamwork.
00:06:07.080 His team is working very well together collectively.
00:06:10.220 Better than what it was the first time around.
00:06:12.040 Not a lot of people have been fired.
00:06:13.760 It's not been as chaotic as it was before in regards to how the team was.
00:06:18.140 Before, you're like, you couldn't know who to trust, any of that stuff.
00:06:20.980 And then you have innovation, creative, some of the stuff that they're proposing, Greenland,
00:06:24.520 all this other stuff.
00:06:25.160 I give it an A as well for that.
00:06:28.300 But results, it's C minus.
00:06:29.960 To me, they're great right now, C minus on results.
00:06:32.520 First hundred days.
00:06:33.420 When you go purely with results.
00:06:35.320 We were told day one, there's going to be peace with Russia and Ukraine.
00:06:38.640 It's day 100.
00:06:39.720 There's no peace there.
00:06:41.880 It's worse.
00:06:42.540 They're fighting.
00:06:43.280 Of course.
00:06:43.720 I thought there was going to be a deal being done there.
00:06:45.700 I thought the mineral deal was going to be done.
00:06:47.360 It's going to take too long.
00:06:48.660 The negotiation with Greenland, we needed that or we needed Ukraine or we needed something
00:06:52.720 with minerals, not done.
00:06:54.260 Panama was supposed to close.
00:06:55.500 Hasn't closed yet.
00:06:56.740 Is America safer than ever before in the last four years?
00:07:00.260 Absolutely.
00:07:00.840 It's safer border.
00:07:02.200 People are not coming across.
00:07:03.380 Tom Homan's doing his job there.
00:07:04.720 No problem.
00:07:06.700 Cash Patel.
00:07:08.600 Glenn Beck is here.
00:07:09.580 In two weeks.
00:07:11.340 I'm telling you, in two weeks, nothing happened there.
00:07:14.500 And Glenn Beck was just with the president last week doing an interview in the Oval Office
00:07:18.460 together.
00:07:18.980 Okay.
00:07:19.600 You got Epstein stuff.
00:07:20.800 People that voted that wanted Epstein.
00:07:22.160 What happened with that?
00:07:22.880 It's not out there.
00:07:23.440 Are we supposed to forget about it?
00:07:24.680 There was a massive community that specifically voted because they wanted people to be held
00:07:29.200 accountable.
00:07:30.320 Fauci.
00:07:30.820 Is there going to be accountability with Fauci?
00:07:32.360 We don't know yet.
00:07:33.380 The trade war on how chaotic it is right now.
00:07:36.660 Someone's got to close the deal, whoever it is.
00:07:38.840 If someone's got to get on a flight and go and negotiate, someone's got to do it.
00:07:42.520 Next one, threats.
00:07:43.480 When you threat Iran, if you do this, if you do this, I'm telling you, Hamas, if you do
00:07:47.160 this, I don't want to see my president keep threatening without being able to deliver
00:07:50.920 on the threats.
00:07:51.520 The more and more you keep saying threat, threat, threat, threat, threat, and nothing's
00:07:55.220 happening.
00:07:55.620 What are we looking at?
00:07:56.480 I'm not okay with that.
00:07:57.600 So in regard, Tom.
00:07:59.980 24-hour Gaza.
00:08:01.020 Yeah.
00:08:01.440 On that same list.
00:08:02.500 In regards to results, it's a C-.
00:08:05.760 C-. And I voted for this guy in 16, in 20, and 24.
00:08:10.920 Gladly.
00:08:11.620 Happy I did.
00:08:12.640 And it's a C- today.
00:08:14.220 I hope right now.
00:08:15.440 And it's not, again, remember, it's not because of attitude.
00:08:17.360 It's the best attitude he's had.
00:08:18.420 He's playing loose.
00:08:19.380 Not because of effort.
00:08:20.700 Not because the team's not working together.
00:08:22.460 Not because they're not being innovative.
00:08:23.740 Not because America's not safer.
00:08:24.900 But there's some, by the way, this C- within 30 days could turn into an A+.
00:08:32.780 This C- within 30 days.
00:08:35.360 But because so many things are in the hopper that are not closed, we can't give you a high
00:08:40.540 grade.
00:08:41.000 The market doesn't judge you based, like today, all the criticism.
00:08:45.060 Oh, my God.
00:08:45.500 He's not doing this.
00:08:46.280 Yeah.
00:08:46.540 Okay.
00:08:46.780 You're right.
00:08:47.540 What did I even tell you?
00:08:48.440 It's not done yet.
00:08:49.560 But it's 100 days.
00:08:50.840 And the great thing about being a president is your administration is not judged on the
00:08:55.080 first 100 days.
00:08:56.080 That's just something market does because they need content.
00:08:58.840 There's nothing going on.
00:08:59.760 So they're like, ah, let's talk about the first 100 days and we're going to do this.
00:09:02.700 But that is my grade for the first 100 days.
00:09:05.180 A couple of things.
00:09:06.140 I mean, you mentioned the FBI.
00:09:07.720 Cash Patel is supposed to come in and clean house.
00:09:09.400 And then they had a couple of swings and misses where cashed us out.
00:09:12.540 We found a border agent who committed fraud on an insurance claim or whatever.
00:09:16.420 There hasn't been a cleaning of house of the FBI yet.
00:09:20.240 There was a bit of the disappointment of Matt Gaetz being pressured out of his position.
00:09:24.220 But the reality is, I mean, he's answering letters to God, basically.
00:09:28.760 I mean, when we went to the White House for one of these events that they were holding
00:09:31.180 for alternative media, you realize what an industry, a machine that they are operating
00:09:36.960 where you see Tulsi Gabbard in the hallway and she's also answering letters from God in
00:09:40.860 terms of what is expected of her, what is demanded of her.
00:09:43.000 So the judging harshly in terms of what they said they were going to do and what they've
00:09:45.960 done in the first 100 days is not a destructive form of criticism.
00:09:50.380 But they've got an immense job to do and they've got four years to do it.
00:09:54.180 You're right.
00:09:54.360 Not just 100 days.
00:09:55.240 I'm very comfortable with it.
00:09:56.380 I think the magic word is that under-deliver.
00:09:58.620 Because when you over-promise and under-deliver, your expectations are here and then you don't
00:10:04.460 meet the expectations.
00:10:05.620 This is the problem with Trump of him being such a good marketer and such a good blusterer.
00:10:11.940 People use that word bluster as like a bad thing.
00:10:15.000 People understand that when he says, I'm going to end the war in Ukraine in one day, he actually
00:10:19.380 literally said, listen, I don't think anybody took me serious about that.
00:10:22.880 He said those words.
00:10:23.860 Yeah.
00:10:24.340 Okay.
00:10:24.920 But the problem is when you set those expectations, people are like, yeah, dude, it's been two
00:10:29.280 days.
00:10:29.520 It's been 100 days.
00:10:30.100 When you said you're going to bring out the Epstein files in a week, where's it been?
00:10:33.900 So, you know, talking about 100 days, Trump's got 99 problems and he is the number one problem
00:10:38.980 is because you set these expectations so high that you cannot meet these expectations.
00:10:45.460 So when Putin says, oh, you think you're going to end the war in one day?
00:10:49.200 Okay, sure, buddy.
00:10:50.980 Let me make you look bad.
00:10:51.840 So when Putin did this weekend, attacked Kiev and killed all these innocent civilians,
00:10:56.020 Trump is like, Vladimir, stop.
00:10:58.060 It doesn't make Trump look tough.
00:10:59.280 You know, it's crazy.
00:11:00.220 So it weakens your brand when you do not deliver on your promises.
00:11:04.460 But it's part of his deal.
00:11:06.880 You know, our brand is Future Looks Bright.
00:11:09.140 His brand is Make America Great Again.
00:11:10.940 Both of them, there's a lot of pressure on who?
00:11:12.600 Yeah.
00:11:13.120 The individual that says what?
00:11:15.040 Make America Great Again or Future Looks Bright, right?
00:11:18.460 They just launched their new hat, called the 2028 hat, Trump 2028 hat.
00:11:22.360 You know what it says on their website?
00:11:23.720 The Future Looks Bright.
00:11:25.200 Good for them.
00:11:26.000 Have you seen this?
00:11:26.680 I wonder where they would even have gotten.
00:11:28.620 Yeah, if you go to Trump merch and you look at the Trump 2028, look at the first phrase.
00:11:34.400 The future looks bright.
00:11:35.760 Hey, wait a minute.
00:11:36.340 Can I say something about this?
00:11:37.460 What?
00:11:37.720 Guys, the last thing I'd be thinking about if I'm Trump right now is 2028.
00:11:41.740 I think maybe they're trolling.
00:11:43.300 They're basically trying to own the libs.
00:11:44.540 Of course.
00:11:45.060 Let's focus on 2025.
00:11:46.120 Because everyone here just gave him a collective C+.
00:11:49.120 Yeah, but here's the one thing that a lot of people don't realize.
00:11:53.360 Guy says, you know, well, you know, guys like you, the reason why you're not happy and you're giving this is because the market.
00:11:59.360 My guy John Owens shows up last week, okay, from Goldman.
00:12:02.620 We're sitting on having a meeting with him.
00:12:03.840 Do you know how many times he called me when the market went down 6,000 points?
00:12:08.520 Do you know how many times he tried to get a hold of me?
00:12:10.860 Never once did I call him back.
00:12:12.740 He comes, he sits down, he says, do you know how much money you lost?
00:12:15.760 I said, how much money did I lose?
00:12:17.320 He tells me the number.
00:12:18.800 Jennifer's sitting right there.
00:12:19.600 He says, babe, are you kidding me?
00:12:20.800 I said, no.
00:12:22.180 So what are we going to do?
00:12:23.560 I said, we're going to go buy some more.
00:12:25.360 Take some of the money out of the cash right now.
00:12:27.000 Here's how much money I want you to put into the market right now.
00:12:29.700 And I said, I guarantee you I'm the only big client that never called you back.
00:12:33.740 He says, you're the only one that never called me back.
00:12:35.800 Why?
00:12:36.560 Because I'm long on America.
00:12:37.960 Yep.
00:12:38.400 And I'm long on capitalism.
00:12:39.960 And I'm not sitting here worried about what's going to have to happen to my money in the next three, six months.
00:12:45.580 It's not what I'm worried about.
00:12:46.700 I'm playing the long game.
00:12:48.780 That's how business works.
00:12:50.460 You don't play the short game.
00:12:51.720 The people that are playing the short game are panicked, panicking.
00:12:54.920 But today for the score today will be that.
00:12:57.960 And by the way, visit back in three to six months when my C minus becomes an A plus and look at the people that will be pissed off saying he can't do anything right.
00:13:06.520 He can't do anything wrong in Pat's eyes.
00:13:08.220 The same thing.
00:13:09.080 I'm going to be me and I'm going to give my feedback and you can get all butthurt and upset about it.
00:13:13.680 That's not my problem.
00:13:14.840 I'm telling you where I stand right now financially and what I think is going to be happening.
00:13:18.780 In regards to this, I think this was just a great distraction to the marketplace because Trump 2020, it could mean Eric Trump, could mean Donald Trump, Jr. Trump.
00:13:27.320 It could mean a lot of different Trumps.
00:13:28.840 It doesn't mean Daddy Trump.
00:13:33.060 There's a lot of different Trumps in there.
00:13:35.080 And I think him and Laura may one day run as well.
00:13:37.480 I think they would be a power couple if they chose to run.
00:13:40.140 During a season like this where a lot of people are going through challenging times, they're worried.
00:13:44.040 They don't know what's going on.
00:13:44.800 Some of the people are having a hard time with their finances, with their small businesses, with their careers, with their families.
00:13:50.200 Stress period, anxiety, any of that stuff.
00:13:52.360 I said, I think we need something to make people's day.
00:13:55.200 And I think our audience wants to participate in that.
00:13:59.160 So what do we do?
00:13:59.900 We sat there and said, we want to come up.
00:14:02.800 Since our audience, a lot of business owners, executives, small business owners, entrepreneurs, we want to send, we want to give you the opportunity to send a package to anybody you know that's going through challenging time.
00:14:13.480 With a heartfelt message to make their day.
00:14:17.760 So today we're launching this new initiative called When Life Gives You Lemons, what do we do?
00:14:25.900 Make lemonade.
00:14:27.260 This program right here, Rob, if you want to play the clip.
00:14:29.340 So we're sitting, we're coming up with this idea.
00:14:31.020 Here's what it is.
00:14:32.200 The box is when you choose to order this program that we have, okay, you send this box.
00:14:39.640 We send it on behalf of you.
00:14:41.580 That box right there, they open it up.
00:14:43.780 There's a video message being played by me, an encouraging message about what they're going through today.
00:14:49.040 They get a hat.
00:14:49.860 On top of that, they get the smell.
00:14:52.720 When you open this up, it smells like lemon.
00:14:55.400 Literally when you open it up.
00:14:56.960 You get to pick and choose.
00:14:58.440 My video is playing right here when they open it up.
00:15:01.000 Obviously, I'm going to press pause here.
00:15:02.680 But it's an encouraging message.
00:15:04.040 You get to pick and choose what color hat they get.
00:15:06.300 It's either the white lemon hat with valetainment and a lemon on the back.
00:15:10.100 And it says when life gives you a lemon.
00:15:11.420 In the middle, it says make lemonade.
00:15:13.080 You can choose the green hat or you can choose the red and green, all of this.
00:15:17.860 But the black and green in it.
00:15:20.180 Anyways, inside of it, when you open it up, there's a valetainment paper that's in it.
00:15:26.000 There is this lemon squeezer that's in it.
00:15:29.280 You got these, what do you call these things?
00:15:31.000 Air fresheners.
00:15:31.400 Air fresheners in the car.
00:15:32.560 You got a bunch of stickers, a bunch of lemons, and then stress balls in it.
00:15:36.520 Okay?
00:15:37.240 They're going to laugh.
00:15:38.400 They're going to have fun with it.
00:15:39.760 But if you're somebody that's watching this, you have a friend, a family member, a co-worker
00:15:43.780 that's really going through it today and you want to put the biggest smile on their face
00:15:48.160 representing both valetainment and the individual that's going through it,
00:15:52.960 go to vtmerch.com, Rob, if you can help them walk through this.
00:15:56.340 And there's going to be a card in there.
00:15:57.460 You can go to vtmerch.com, Rob, if you can go to the card so they can see what that'll
00:16:02.640 look like.
00:16:03.520 So they'll get that box.
00:16:04.700 You see the future looks bright on it, hashtag.
00:16:07.280 And then the notes right there with your name on the bottom left, meaning sent to you with
00:16:13.000 care from your name being in there.
00:16:15.200 So this is more than just a box.
00:16:16.360 It's a message of optimism, encouragement, and the power of turning life's lemons into
00:16:20.140 something amazing.
00:16:21.240 We want to be able to use these opportunities to make people's days.
00:16:24.940 We did this with only a limited 500 of these.
00:16:28.780 We don't have more of these.
00:16:29.680 These are all handmade.
00:16:31.200 These took six weeks to make.
00:16:32.920 So we only have 500 supply.
00:16:35.840 The cost on this, we're making no money on this.
00:16:38.060 This is $74.99 to ship it to somebody with everything that's in there.
00:16:42.340 So go to vtmerch.com, place your order.
00:16:44.440 And when you do, be sure in the shipping address you put their shipping address.
00:16:48.760 Unless if you want one that comes to you, there are going to be limited supplies.
00:16:51.660 You can have one being shipped to you and you go deliver to somebody.
00:16:54.260 I am personally sending 10 to people that I know.
00:16:56.980 And I think Pierre Poliev is on the list of one of the ones that I have.
00:17:00.020 Better put an apple in there too.
00:17:02.720 They're going to be going to some of the people that I have as well.
