00:00Yeah, I mean she's not going to answer any questions or something.
00:04I thought that you were frustrated in the front of the line that she wasn't answering any of your questions.
00:09Yeah, she's not answering any questions. She's not going to. She's going to say it's an investigation.
00:13Ongoing investigation. And I don't expect her to give us anything.
00:19That's why I wanted to have the meeting the previous Monday.
00:23I just forget the convention. This is more important.
00:26And the fact that she's going to continue this is just exactly what we knew we'd get from this administration.
00:33Mr. Richard, what do you think that Harris brings to the top of the Democratic ticket?
00:37Not a whole lot, really.
00:40Because suburban housewives are where Trump is weakest, probably, is what we've been told.
00:47And she does very poorly in that area.
00:51She's doing better than Biden, though.
00:53Well, Biden didn't do a whole lot.
00:56And bringing Biden out continuously was just politically the end of him.
01:05So you don't think that this race will be any different with her at the top of the ticket?
01:10No, I think President Trump will actually do better.
01:13I think she will continue to stumble because the number one issue outside of all this going on up here is the border.
01:19And she is a complete and total failure at the border.
01:21She couldn't find the border if she had a compass and a map.
01:24Congressman, going back to the hearing, can you really cheat or accept that full responsibility for what happened July 13th but will not resign?
01:31Congressman Coleman asked for her resignation in the opening statement.
01:34Are you asking for her resignation as well?
01:36I 100 percent. She shouldn't have to resign. She should have been fired.
01:39Do you think that her just being her profile, Harris's profile, as the first African-American woman who could be the president, that could make it appealing to a lot of voters?
01:51I always just say put the best player in.
01:53I mean, we've got a DEI hire in here.
01:56And Biden said, first off, he said he's going to hire a black female for vice president.
02:02And he just skipped over.
02:05What about white females?
02:07What about any other group?
02:09Just when you go down that route, you take mediocrity.
02:14And that's what they have right now as a vice president.
02:16Are you suggesting she was a DEI hire?
02:18100 percent. She was a DEI hire.
02:21He said he was going to hire.
02:23And then she didn't.
02:25Her record is abysmal at best.
