if you looked out the right side of the plane, you would look over the potomac live, you saw a lot of small, nondescript monuments arranged neatly over rolling hills in a place called arlington national cemetery. if you don t have people that are willing throughout our history to stand up, i put on that uniform, risk their lives and in many instances give that last full measure of devotion, then it isn t going to amount to very much. we must fight the good fight, we must finish the race also supposed to be in iowa today for if a massive rally postponed it about an hour ago. he s still posting his campaign message on truth we ve got to make sure we have a great election. we ve got to win big, and we re leading crooked joe biden by a lot, a lot. the polls are showing we re 7 points up, 8 points, 9 points and even 11 points in one instance. let s keep it that way. our very own alexis mcadams is live in hinton, iowa. what have you got for us? reporter: we were expecting to
attack line as they did on trump because that s basically all they ve been doing for the past few years. he isn t known to make some of the off the cuff, insane trump is insanely funny. he just says stuff and captures people s attention, and he can always make people upset, he doesn t worry about what he says, and desantis isn t like that. i don t know if he has the curb appeal, the charisma for some and, i guess, disdain for others. but it is, i think, kat, you hit on the right point, and, tom mi, if you sit there and make your calculated vote on, well, desantis won t have the baggage that trump has, i think he ll go after twice as hard because of that. they re going to go after whoever the republican is, let s be honest. they re going to sabotage and torpedo whoever the nominee is. however, the calculus, there s a lot of us, and we have different factions of this party. but the calculation we re going to have to make is not so much about who s going to lead the country better.
feel like they really do want a cheeseburger, but, you know, that s up to them to decide. but joe joey s exactly right. this is the entitlement again. it s not just a liberal thing, but i have to feel that a lot of see begans are liberals, but it s the entitlement of i get to tell you what you and your family need to do. they have the right to cancel somebody else, and it s the worst thing that could happen to you is that you might be offended or have a slight inconvenience, you might be upset e for a moment. and that is the a part of society that we need to root out now like a tumor. kat, you re very passionate abouted food, so i want to ask you how do you want to relate this story to your smash, best selling book, you can t joke about that, available everywhere. my book relates to everything, and i wrote it, so i can t imagine how all the people peel who are just getting to know it, because it s that good. [laughter] i m calling shenanigans on this story. there s a lot going on
the border, which a lot of people say he did, i think a lot of americans felt that way, ron desantis is very strong on the border, but that s another issue where the two two of them, really ron desantis can t9 say he s going to be better than donald trump. here s him talking about the border today. what bugs me about it is you see the carnage that happens at these border towns, you see the carnage with the drugs in communities don t let anyone tell you if you re not a border town that this isn t affecting you. i i ve met mothers throughout florida who have lost children because of fentanyl overdose, and if we had a secure border, a lot of that wouldn t happen. and yet the media doesn t really care about it, a lot of the left, they try to ignore it. a lot of them welcome this, this is their vision. ron desantis win on a border message against donald trump? well, i mean, not all of that is completely accurate. fentanyl mostly comes in through legal points of entry. i think it s
fentanyl. but there s certainly, that s not to say that the situation is not a disaster on the border because it shul is. i think that there is it absolutely is. i think that there is a lot of talking back and forth and, ultimately, it s going to be congress that has to solve this. and i think that, you know, people are they re so interested in posturing ask and not wanting to do anything about it. title 42 the, it was a covid emergency thing and regardless of how you feel about a law, i think it s most important to not allow the government to be able to abuse power. the covid emergency s been not a thing for a very long time. but immigration that we have in place right now was built in the 90s, andst it s not meant to handle this kind of influx of people. i think people that want to come here and work, that should be easier to come here healey. definitely agree that we need to stop all of the incentives like the free stuff for people who come over here illegally or, you know, for
