This is Dan Caplis and welcome to today's online podcast edition of The Dan Caplis
Show. Please be sure to give us a five star rating if you'd be
so kind, and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every single
day on your favorite podcast platform. It's a dying art where people from opposing
parties are willing to get together in person, have a debate, answer the
tough questions and more importantly, the follow up questions, even from their opponent,
because there just aren't that many people out there anymore, you know,
who have that kind of conviction and that kind of confidence in their own abilities.
So all the credit in the world to Tricia Calvareci, who's here today,
Democrat candidate for Congress and CD four. Welcome Tricia and Doug Greg Lopez,
Greg and everybody who listens to the show familiar with Greg very accomplished on
the conservative side, and he's the nominee from the GOP for this special election.
I won't suck up debate time by getting into the special election versus general
election stuff. Stakes are high. You know, whoever wins this, yeah,
that person's going to be sitting in a very closely divided Congress. So
again, thank you to both and to be here well, thank you.
And we left it to Tricia to make the choice on who would go first,
because again, I have to tell you how much I admire you coming
into this format because obviously this is a conservative radio show, right, but
you're not afraid to come in here and debate, and I just I know
we're going to disagree on probably every major issue, right, but I respect
the heck out of you for being willing to do that, and I think
it says lots of good things about you. So so let's dive in.
Greg, you go first. The first question up for people, and we
have a time clock that the candidates know about and will enforce gently. But
I'm going to ask each of you to open with just a little bit about
who you are, but why you would be a better representative for CD four
than your opponent, and then your opponent will reply to that. Okay,
Well, listen, Dan, it's great to be here with you tonight,
you know, and I want to start by really commending Tricia for stepping up
to the plate, you know, and wanting to serve the fourth congressional district.
You know, when you step up to the plate and run for office,
you become a target. And so you know, a lot of us
are familiar with that, and so I think it's it's good that she's doing
this. You know, we probably differ on a lot of policies, but
I'm glad to hear that, you know, she's in agreement with me when
I talk about, you know, people over politics, I think we share
that same concern as it pertains to be in an office, you know,
and we mentioned that on June twenty fifth. This is a special election,
so the people of the CD four are going to be looking for someone that
has knowledge, experience, and wisdom that truly understands the complexities and the challenges
of the district. And so I think I because I've been traveling the state
for a number of years, I have connected with them. You know,
I'm a small business owner, I'm a veteran. You know, I'm a
husband, I'm a Christian. You know, I'm a father, and so
all those things I think helped me become the best Congressman that we can have
here for the next six months. And so that's why I'm running. You
know, I think the district wants to see secured borders. They want an
economy that works for them, not against them. And so you know,
I would just ask all the people in CD four to pay attention and vote
for Greg Lopez. No, thank you, Greg, thank you so much,
and I'm thrilled to be here. Thank you sincerely. This this is
what it's about. So, like everyone said, my name is Tricia Calvaries
and I'm from the district. I grew up here. I grew up in
Sterling and in Douglas County in Highlands Ranch. Actually when it was a ranch,
there were wild horses. And I was most recently in Washington, d
C. Working for a Trump appoint to help reshore American innovation, and then
a family emergency brought me home. Both of my parents did have cancer and
thankfully I could come home and provide end of life care and they did pass
last fall, and thank you so much. But I'm so great, well
I could be there. I'm stepping up to run because so many families like
mine are these Sandwich generations. They have so many care obligations and it's so
difficult people understand. I'm from the district. My parents were both conservative,
they were Republican, and before he passed my dad told me step up and
you serve the community that raised you. So that's what I'm doing. Well,
thank you for that. And I really and I'm sure listeners appreciate how
professional you are toward each other. So this next question isn't meant to change
that. But why would you be better than your opponent for CD four,
Greg, Well, like I said, look, I've lived in Colorado thirty
six years. I've seen Colorado change. As you know, I ran for
governor and I had a great opportunity to work out or be out in the
Eastern Plains. I know the issues of water, I know the issues of
what's going on with the agricultural industry, and more importantly, I can relate
to them. You know, I don't come from money. I come from
humble beginnings. You know, my mom and dad grew up working in the
fields. My dad had a six grade education, never really truly learn how
to read and write, and my mom has a tenth grade education. But
one of the things that they taught us boys is that you know what,
you work hard, you surround yourself with good people. You know, you
listen to your elders and learn from them, and you can achieve the American
dream. And right now the American dream is vanishing. You know you just
heard some of the younger generation is really concerned about can we actually do this?
And so I have the wisdom. I understand the complexities of legislation.
I understand the complexities of the totality of the office, and I think that's
what makes me a better candidate. And Tsia, why would you be better?
Well, I'm actually part of that generation that, for the first time
in American history, has experienced the backside life from our parents. Right where
the economy we were promised, where if you work hard, you can rise
on your merit. That's not the reality right now. And I'm stepping up
to ron and I am the best representative for this district. There's no four
year university or college in all of CD four, So I'm fighting tooth and
nail for pathways into the middle class that don't necessarily need a four year degree,
that are in the industries of the future. And I'm coming from the
United States National Science Foundation. I understand what we're doing on AI, on
quantum, on these emerging industries, and I want to bring those investments here
to our district. I understand these technologies. I understand the stakes and again
I'm from that generation. Well, let's roll off of that into the energy
industry, obviously so important in Northern Colorado. Start with you this time,
Tritia. How do you view the energy industry in Northern Colorado and what legislation,
if any, would you pursue that pertains to that. I love this
question, Thank you so much for asking it. There is a very big
difference between something like, let's say, a coal company and a coal community.
I'm thrilled to say I'm endorsed by the United mind Workers of America because
I understand that there does need to be a transition to renewable energy to clean
energy. Right it's going to be on the backs of working people and working
communities. Pipelines can carry many things. They can carry natural gas, which
absolutely is part of the draw down strategy. We need to make sure that
our pipelines are clean, that they're preserved, and they do need to be
replaced. There's lots of leaks happening all over. There was, i think
recently in Northern Colorado, a huge explosion on a farm. But where we
need to make sure that there are workforce protections in place before we talk about
replacing energy of any kind, but what we're looking at right now, we
do need natural gas. It is part of the drawdown strategy. You know.
I'm glad you asked a question because CD four is a very complex district,
right twenty one counties. You got atoms, you got a rappa hole,
you got a larmer, you know, and there's a lot of people
that you will never be understanding AI and that type of higher education. You
know, there's no shame in working with your hands. There's no shame in,
you know, being a labor and doing the right thing. And when
it comes to energy. Look, I'm going to be there for six months,
so I know how to manage expectations and I know how to manage,
you know, the things that are coming. I for one, believe that
fossil fuels are important for our nation. If you look at how many products,
by products come out of fossil fuels, you know, it's important for
people to fully understand what that all means. You know. Alternative energy.
I think it's something that we probably should look into, but we got to
be careful how quickly we rush to it. You know, one of the
things that I see in Texas and other areas that these solar panels sometimes they
don't generate the energy that people say they should, but most people who truly
rely on fossil fuel, well, and thank you to both of you for
being so concise and precise. It really helps. And I know we'll deep
dive some of these issues as we move through this debate. When we come
back, we'll start with do we have a crisis at the southern border and
what should be done about that? You're on the Dan Capitla Show and now
back to the Dan Tapless Show podcast. Yes strong, Ryan, I thought
you were going to come back with Proud to be an American, right,
because there's that feel to this debate. It's a throwback. It's two people
very smart and confident in their positions who are willing to come in debate face
to face. Tricia Cavalese, who is the Democrat nominee for Congress in CD
four, Greg Lopez, and this has to do with the special election coming
up June twenty five. So we're now on segment two and the question we'll
throw it out there and we'll start with the Trisha Tricia, what should be
done with the Southern border. Do you consider it a crisis and if so,
what should be done about the southern border. Thank you so much for
that question. And I do want to point out that there was a resolution
in Congress that they voted on just the other day to call it a crisis.
And Lauren Bobert, who's also running from the seat in the primary for
the full term, she wasn't there to vote for it to call it a
crisis. She also voted no on a bipartisan border bill because Donald Trump told
her to. So I'm happy to work with anybody to actually secure our border.
We need comprehensive immigration reform. I want to look at it from our
values as Americans, right. Immigrants are a key part of our economy.
They work in our fields, they work in our meat packing plants. Part
of my own care team that took care of my parents, those were migrants
as well. We want pathways to citizenship for the people who are here and
have contributed to our economy and to our society. And from a labor perspective,
as long as there are people that you can exploit because of their documentation
status, it hurts every American worker. Now, the border is just part
of it. Here's the other thing I'm really worried about. In terms of
immigration. We're in a competition right now for STEM talent. It is urgent.
We want this to be the place that STEM talent wants to be.
We're talking about the world's best and brightest. And in fact, I was
just talking to an Indian immigrant the other day about how difficult it is to
get those visas for highly skilled workers. We need to expedite that and we
need to remain a place that is welcoming of the best and the brightest,
and that this is where they want to be, correct, you know,
Dan, it's there is a crisis. I mean, anybody that's watching the
national news will agree there's a crisis, you know. And the people that
are coming over right now, they're not these high educated individuals. There are
pathways for those through work visas and so forth. You know. But what
I'm seeing and here's what I want to do. And here's again, this
is a big dynamic contrast and difference is I'm looking to reintroduce the red card
Guess work program. I don't know if you're familiar with that or not,
but it was it was submitted to Congress back in two thousand and six.
And this again deals with those individuals that want to come to America to work,
but this is designed for them to be here legally. And you know,
I don't have time to go in all the details, but it's how
do we solve problems, not just talking generalities about concepts. These are strong,
precise issues. For example, the other thing that I'm looking at is
we all know that the asylum seeker application process is broken. It's broken.
You know, there used to be a time where people were crossing the border
and they would run. Now they cross the border and wait to be apprehended.
Why because they're seeking asylum. And one of the things that is challenging
at the border is can we really ascertain if they're actually being fearful from their
own country And a lot of these people are jumping over countries. Right Mexico
is not doing anything to their people, and so we've got to look at
this. And so one of the things that I'm working with the people in
Congress already because I'm not waiting for June twenty fifth. I want to make
sure that we're there and we're going to be impactful. One is to look
at what it makes sense to do an eighteenth month moreitorium on the asylum seekers
application process until we fix it. But there's no doubt that we are currently
in a crisis in the border, and it's because people have lost sight of
what a nation needs to have, and that is a border. Let's do
it. A little follow up on this, because you guys know better than
I do. You're out there doing the hard work. This is one of
the very big things people are talking about all the time, right So a
Tricia starting with you, do you think that the border at this point should
simply be closed? And if not, what should that process for admission look
like? Absolutely, it needs to be orderly. We have a border and
there needs to be a process. I agree that we should close the amnesty
loophole. There needs to be more judges and they need to be able to
hear folks quicker. I think I looking at the root cause of this.
Why are so many people from South America right now at the border. And
I can't wait to you know, I'm looking forward to our next segment where
we talk about Ukraine. Because Vladimir Putin has stopped exporting fertilizer, systematically starving
the people of South and Central America. So one thing that we can look
at. Right, this is a little bit broader than strictly at the border,
but let's solve the root cause of these problems. We are the most
productive district, one of the most productive districts in the country, and we
could be doing even more we have. So we have fabulous farmland. Let's
grow more food and export it. Let's work with our allies in the South.
We want we want strong economic development there and here. We want we
want people to be able to find opportunities and decent jobs and dignity and an
ability to support their families wherever they are correct. Well, look, it's
clear that the border is no longer a border. When you talk to the
agents down there, they're already telling me, look, we're not even doing
what we're supposed to be doing. We're processors now. We no longer are
protecting the border. You know, when I was running for governor and talking
to people, I would tell in America's always had a border, It's always
had a wall. It was an invisible wall. They used to respect that,
you know, now they don't respect our invisible wall. And I think
it's time that we put a barrier, a visible barrier to remind people that,
look, there is a process by which we welcome you, but we
need you to be Americans. We need you to follow the rule of law.
It's not that we don't want you, we just want to make sure
that we do it correctly and until we have some strong voices, not this
you know, political back and forth. Well it's election year, let's do
it now. You know, this crisis has been going on for a while,
and so it's interesting to me that as we get closer to an election
cycle, all of a sudden, people are starting to say, well,
we need to find a solution. I think it's important that we again put
people over politics. Let's look at what's going on. Every state now is
a border state. You don't have to be in Texas. My family grew
up in the Rio Grand Valley. I truly understand what's happening at the border.
And a quick follow up for both of you, we have maybe a
minute before the break, and then in the next segment we will in fact
be talking about should the US fund Ukraine, Should the US support Israel taking
RAFA? But real quick take on this from you? Inflation? What could
be done through Congress to help relief people of what you both agree, I
think is a real crisis right now. Absolutely, price gouging is a big
piece of it. Right looking at our the conglomerates at the very top,
look at who's profiting off of it. Right, it's a it's a boon
for shareholders, but it's it's hurting everyday Americans. It's hurting the middle class.
So one price gouging. Two, undo the tax the tax Trump cuts
right or the very big the cuts. And then I would also say we
need to be investing in local economies like these local regional innovation hubs of bringing
it not because if you just throw money at it without creating the full ecosystem,
it's going to collapse. So there's already investments coming online in quantum and
in climate for the US, for Colorado specifically, quick take quik Yeah,
I agree that. I'm so happy she said we shouldn't throw money at this
right because that's what's happening right now. The federal government is throwing money at
all these so called issues because they believe money is going to solve them.
Dan when our national debt it's over thirty four trillion dollars that we really can't
afford. You know, you have to ask yourself, why is America a
government spending so much money? And it's the money in the system that's causing
a lot of this inflation. You know, is there a price scouging?
Who knows? You know, But do we really want the government to interfere
with small business and the capitalism that we have. I don't think so.
Well. Thank you, Greg, and hey, if you just joined us,
thank you something rare live face to face to beate Tricia Cavalresi the Democrat
versus Greg Lopez Republican special election CD four. When we come back, should
the US fund Ukraine? Eight five five four zero five eight two five five.
Now, if you have questions that you want us to pose to these
fine folks, Tech Sdan d An five seven seven three nine Ryan, anything
you want to throw in before the break. I just like that we're moving
along here in the times just about equals. So we're going to try to
get that back on track for the third of four segments coming right up and
again text in any questions you may have. And we've invited the candidates to
Hey, there's some topic I'm not bringing up. They want to bring up
feel free to. I mean, we just appreciate the fact they're here and
we have the chance to have this debate. And even if you're not in
CD four, don't care about CD four, and I think you should because
control of Congress could depend on it. These issues I think pertain to all
of us. Everywhere you're on the Dan Kapler Show, you're listening to the
Dan Kaplis Show podcast credit to Tricia CALVALRISI now, Trician, I've had it
right every time except this one. They're right all the time, say Calvary,
see Calvale, except the correct way to say your name is Calvary's correct.
Well, if you're Cavaret said, you're going to with a hand.
But they're both right, they're both But as a guy who's one hundred percent
Irish, I probably care Calvary's the Calvary's for you. That's the right,
excellent job should the DEM nominee in CD four and Greg Lopez the GOP nominee
and the special election. And so even if you don't care about CD four,
and I think you should, again because control of Congress may depend on
it. They're talking about the issues that mattered all of US no matter which
district we are in. So we covered a lot of ground in the first
segments. Let's now dive into should the US fund Ukraine? Greg your turn,
please go first on that. You know, it's interesting the whole dynamics
about funding Ukraine and the war with Russia. And yet when you look at
it, it seems like we're funding both wars, right because we're buying fuel
from Russia and we're engaging with them and so forth. I'm here to tell
you that I believe for now we need to have a stop on funding Ukraine.
I think we need to reevaluate what is it really a crisis for US?
And again, because we're thirty four trillion dollars in debt and people believe
that we America have of deep pockets that we should always be willing to just
write checks and so forth. I'm concerned about that, you know. And
so I think, you know what, when people talk about, well,
what about fertilizer and so forth, Well, you know what, why can't
we make that here in America? You know, why can't we provide that
as an industry? We've done it before. I just don't see why we
can't do it again. But I really am concerned as to how much we're
spending in these wars and for how long there is no end in sight.
You know, I was reading today that Putin really doesn't have an outplan,
you know, So what if he takes the capital of Ukraine? Does he
draw a line? Does he change the government? I think he's in a
real box and he doesn't know how to get out of it. As a
person of Slavic origin mine of you know, I've got the Polish ancestry.
Putin must be stopped. I don't know what army, what NATO army in
Europe can stop Putin. And we know that he's not going to stop in
Ukraine. We know he'll go into poland it'll draw in a NATO conflict.
And there is no army in Europe ready to fight and defend itself against Vladimir
Putin. The Ukrainians have done an admirable job, and as our allies,
we need to step up and give them all of give them the arms.
That's good for our economy, right, we get to get rid of our
old stock and we get to build new things. We get to innovate in
the process as well. So send it, Send it today. Absolutely stand
by Ukraine, you know, to a head of that though, dan As
I hear it say, well, it's good for our economy because we're going
to rebuild our ammunition supply. Well, the only people that buy the ammunition
supply is the government, and the government is going to take that money from
the taxpayers, you know. And again we are thirty four twillion dollars in
debt, and so we have to be very careful on what decisions we're making
with the next generation's money. And just give you an idea. Look today,
thirty four point seven trillion dollars. If every citizen was to write a
check, it would cost them one hundred and three thousand dollars to get rid
of the debt. For the taxpayers, all the taxpayers, it would cost
two hundred and sixty seven thousand to take care of the debt. So we
cannot ignore the debt that we have. It's a nation, because it could
crush us in the future. Churchy, you honors absolutely. As part of
that generation, I want to live in a world where democracy is the global
world order. I think that if we don't step up and support Ukraine,
I think that sounds a very strong message to China, and I certainly don't
want them to be emboldened for a land war in Taiwan. So as a
as a country that values democratic principles, we must step up and defend our
democratic allies, and that's what we have to do in Ukraine. Absolutely,
let me extend this discussion now to Israel and Gazam. So at this point,
should Israel be allowed to take Rafa? I mean, assuming they do
so in the most humanitarian way possible, there still will be a lot of
casualties by the new nature of this war that Hamas started. But should Israel
be allowed to take Rafa? Let's start with you, Trisha on the I
want to pause and just say, you know, having lost my parents recently,
just the thought of and this was during the you know, the taking
of the hostages. Just the thought of to have a family member be held
and to not be able to touch them or talk to them or know if
they're okay. My heart breaks absolutely breaks for those families. At the same
time, seeing the indiscriminate slaughter of civilians in Gaza is incredibly disturbing. It's
and I think Biba Natanya, who is a strong man, so no I
do not think that we should support Biba in Rafa. What do you think
the US policy should be at this point with regard to Israel and the warrant
Gaza. I think we need to apply the lazy rule, apply the conditions
that are already on the books, and make sure that they meet the standards.
Correct, man, Let's not forget who started this whole conflict. It
wasn't Israel. Hamas was the one that attacked Israel. And you know when
you talk about families and you talk about the hostages that they took, the
people that they killed, you know, they invaded Israel at least attempted to,
you know, and so we have to remember who started this crisis.
And with what's going on right now in Palestine, Hamas is using the general
public as shields. You know, they used the hospitals, that was proven,
and so they're basically going and trying to use innocent people to protect themselves.
I think it's important for us to make sure or Israel to make sure
that that type of mindset does not exist, because if we allow it to
exist, then they're going to use all kinds of different tactics and more innocent
people are going to be killed. But you know, Israel's always telling them
you know what we're coming. Please citizens, move out of the way,
please go somewhere else. They give them a warning. Hey, guys,
let me shift gears for a second. I note you hear the issue of
the abortion issue a lot on the campaign. Should Roe v. Wade be
codified or should the issue be left to the states. Who would like to
start in that, I'll throw out a jump ball. I think it needs
to be codified. I think it absolutely should be codified. I think when
there are blanket what we could potentially move towards a blanket ban, women are
going to die. I would like to share a personal story. I mean,
the year before I was born, my mom needed to have an a
topic pregnancy removed. It saved her life and it made mine possible the next
year. This was in rural Sterling. The thought of a national abortion ban
is terrifying to think of what is going to happen to women. What is
already happening in the states where there are bands in rural America, there is
a crisis of maternity care. So codify wrote and yes, let's expand access
to reproductive care. Graig Well, I can tell you this. Look,
my record is clear. You know, I wear these little feet because I
protect life. I'm a strong supporter of life. You know, when you
look at what's going on with this whole issue, you have to ask yourself,
are we really focusing on the right issue, Because the termination of any
life by any means. I think we need to reevaluate our moral compass as
a nation. And so you know, my little sister, you know,
we all have examples. My little sister at the age of fifteen, got
pregnant, you know, and the discussion happened within the family that maybe should
get it, she should get an abortion because she was too young. But
the family finally realized, you know what, we need to come together.
We need to come together as a family and raise this child and support her.
And we did. There's so many nonprofits out there, there's so many
organizations that are wanting to help young women that aren't sure if they want to
have a child or not. You know, the foster care, the adoption,
there's so many options. Look, it's not easy to make a decision,
but we as a we must have a moral compass. And I think
that's really where I'm coming from. And when we come back. What we'll
do is will yes please? Chris. I would just say that I was
raised in a Catholic household. My family made it very clear if I was
ever pregnant, we would take care of the child and that would be our
decision. The point is that was our decision. So as kind as you
seem, I don't want you to have anything to do with the decisions that
I and my family make, but our care provider. I'm not looking to
make your decisions. I'm looking to help make decisions for those that can't speak
for themselves, well for other people. Right. I want to leave it
to the woman and to her family and her doctor, and I would like
to give it to the child. And I really wish we didn't have a
break here, but we too, so we'll come back. Well can take
this. You're on the Dan Capla Show. And now back to the Dan
Kaplis Show podcast. A fantastic debate between Tricia Calvalry, she's the Democrat nominee
for Congress in CD four, and Greg Lopez, the GOP nominee Greg in
Greg's case for the special election, We've covered a lot of ground, a
lot of issues quickly. You can pick that up off the pod. But
as you might guess from Ryan's choice of music there, when we went to
break, we were talking about the life issue and whether Roe v. Wade
should be codified, and Tricia very adamantly and enthusiastically says yes, and Greg
just as powerfully says no. And then they discuss that issue before we get
into kind of an extended closing. Is there anything more either of you wanted
to say on that issue, because I know you were going at it pretty
good, and when we went to that hard break, well, you know,
I'll just sad. Look here in Colorado, you know, the people
have spoken, and I believe that the Tenth Amendment, which is a constitution
I'm a strong supporter of the Constitution, gives states that states right, you
know, for them to choose. But it's something that we even here in
Colorado, we need to reevaluate our moral compass anything you wanted to say,
CHRISA anymore in that I get a little bit nervous when we're going to use
other amendments from the Constitution to interpret what a woman can and not can't and
can't do right, because we saw that with ivf Right, where we want
to make sure that IVF remains legal, it remains accessible, and so again
I just want to emphasize the focus really should be on expanding access to care.
And you know, doctors also they take out loans. It takes a
lot to be a doctor. And just talking to you know, the friends
I have and folks who've worked very hard for that degree, who they wanted
to practice in rural and underserved areas and they're they're so terrified of a potential
abortion ban where they're having to you know, reconsider their choices of service.
And I don't think that's fair for doctors well either. Yeah, and don't
feel I mean, if anybody has anything to say, and you can say
it in your closings as well. Obviously if I was part of this debate,
I have some things to say. I'm just the traffic cop here,
but appreciate both of you being here. So we've got got two minutes for
each of you for wide open closings, So have at it. Trisha your
column, whether you want to go first or last, sure thing, I'll
go first. So I just thank you so much also for having me.
This was this was great. Thank you. Thank you Greg as well.
We are facing tremendous challenges. And this is also the era of AI.
And whichever country controlled this is Putin said this, whichever country controls AI,
controls the future. And I want to make sure that the United States is
leading and that we lead with our values. And that's why with my experience
at the National Science Foundation working for a Trump appointee, I'm going to do
everything I can to bring investments into districts and plays that have been overlooked and
left behind so that people, our next generation can get into stem careers and
pathways to make sure that we can out compete against China, that we can
lead the future, and that anybody who wants one can find an excellent job
and a path into the middle class that doesn't necessarily need a four year degree.
And I also just want to make it easier for people to be able
to take care of and spend time with their families. Well, thank you
and thank you for thank you so much. Greg. You know Dan the
city for special election, it's bigger than the district, It's bigger than Colorado.
This is truly about defending our founding principles to protect the republic. We
don't want government to be interfering with our daily lives. You know, we
don't want them to take us into a financial self destruction. And so I'm
here to tell you that the issues that we face today are not Republican issues.
They're not demark issues, they're not unaffiliated issues. These are people issues.
And this is why I always put people over politics. We need to
fully understand that when you sit in these positions, it's not about looking at
how the winds are blowing. It's about being a statesman. It's about having
strong moral character, someone that can bring coalitions together, someone that can look
into the future and make sure that CD four is truly being represented. I
have the knowledge, I have the experience. I know how to lead with
a steady hand. The people of CD four are looking for strong leadership.
They want someone with a strong voice, someone that can actually represent them in
a manner by which they will feel their voices are being heard. And so
I would just encourage everyone in CD four, you know, vote for Greg
Lopez either before early or on the twenty fifth. But if you really want
to know more about me, you know, go to my website Greg Lopez
dot com. You'll find a lot more. And I say just just vote
for Greg Little Well, thank you and thank you for being here. Tricia,
what's your website. It's Trisia for Colorado dot Com. T Ri I
saj the number four Colorado dot com. And I have to tell you,
I think you both just represented tremendously well for your respective parties and I think
maybe some people feel better about politics, at least in the case of you
two. So just a great example of willingness to go head to head and
debate and the way you conducted it. And I'm sure and you've got two
more coming up, so folks will get every opportunity to hear and see and
measure both of you. So very grateful for that. Thank you, and
yes true and one of and if you go to Colorado for dot com.
Lauren Bobert, if you're listening, I'm happy to schedule a debate with you
anytime. Then hopefully we can do it on KHO. Well, I would
love to do it right here, love to do it right here. And
Congressoman Bobert, at least the Congressom Bobert. I no, does not duck
anybody anywhere, anytime. So both of you are welcome, and you know
and obviously she's involved in Rome Prime. We don't know who's going to come
out of that primary yet, but if she is the winner of it,
we would love to host that. Looking forward to thank you, Thank you
and Ryan, thank you for your great job. Kelly, you as well.
Hey, Tomorrow, big day in the Trump trial. The Court's going
to decide on some key jury instructions. I know it sounds boring, it
won't be. It may have a lot to do with how that case ends
up. So we'll dive into that much more tomorrow. Thank you for your
time today, Look forward tomorrow on The Dan Kapla Show.
