Trade vs. Aid, Banking Fraud, the 2026 Midterm Push, and TeddyCon (10-8-26)

Henry in Fargo wants to weigh in on the news of the day here at 701-271-1100.

And presidents, what about our president, Donald Trump, and what about predecessors did you want to talk about, Henry?

Well, I apologize.

I came in late when you were talking about Bush and all those guys.

Here's the deal, because you'd ask, why aren't they coming if Trump's not on the ballot? Why aren't we voting? That's exactly why.

Karl Rove, I saw him with my own eyes on TV say he's not voting Republican, he's voting for a Democrat.

Ken Paxton, the senator in Texas that he beat out, said he's encouraging people to vote for a Democrat.

Kevin Cramer, all these guys.

I'm not going to use your favorite word.

But they've been hoodwinking us for years.

We're $40 trillion in debt.

They can't pass the budget.

All he's worried about is, oh, they've got a mile.

They're 30 yards from your land.

We're going to take your land back.

Well, how about balancing the budget? How about doing the Save America Act? It's all being hoodwinked.

All right, I'm being hoodwinked.

A lot to unpack there.

Let's start with Karl Rove.

And the reason I brought up Karl Rove is he is coming to a weekend event here at the library that I'll tell you about, a Teddy Roosevelt conference.

And he is speaking at an event for the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library on Friday night at the University of Mary, tomorrow night.

And we will interview Karl, and I mentioned Karl is a friend of mine.

And I brought it up because I said Carl's a friend of mine.

And just by my saying that, I will get hate mail saying he's a scoundrel, he's a scumbag, he's evil, he's horrible, he's terrible.

My point was Carl Rove elected Republicans for a living.
