WEBVTT 1 00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:10.039 My Billy cunning in the Great American welcome the stories. 2 00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:13.599 But Randy Monday Afton in the Tri States Bengals looked impervious. 3 00:00:13.919 --> 00:00:16.600 Two in a row marching for glory. About six other 4 00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:18.879 things have to happen. If the Bengals went out, who 5 00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:21.359 knows what occurs down the road. But until then you 6 00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:24.760 may not know it. But the person voting for president 7 00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.600 tomorrow will be, among others, the Great Alex Trantefilu and 8 00:00:29.719 --> 00:00:33.200 something called the Electoral College. And the electoral College is 9 00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:36.320 an incident where, let's face it, we don't vote for 10 00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:42.159 president directly. In fact, there's seventeen Ohio wan's getting together tomorrow, 11 00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:45.280 tomorrow's today. Actually Trump will be elected president at least 12 00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:47.359 through the state of Ohio. Joining you and I now 13 00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:50.719 is the Great Alex Truant Tofilu, Chair of the Republican Party. Alex, 14 00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:52.920 welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And Alex first 15 00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:56.439 of all, explained briefly to the American people, to the Butcher's, 16 00:00:56.520 --> 00:00:59.240 the Bakers, the cement makers, and the Tri State what 17 00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:02.359 happened on the remember the fifth and why really didn't 18 00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:05.200 elect Trump to the presidency? But what's going to happen tomorrow, 19 00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:07.000 will explain that to the American people. 20 00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:09.359 If you will, well. 21 00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:11.799 Belly always going to be with you. And it's a 22 00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.120 high honor of my career really to go and be 23 00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:18.560 an elector on behalf of President Trump. It will be 24 00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:20.599 the second time actually in my career that I've done this. 25 00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:24.120 But so what happens, Bill is, you know, the way 26 00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:27.760 the electoral College works is each state has a certain 27 00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:31.760 number of electors. Ohio happens to have seventeen something. You 28 00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:35.000 just covered that number. We get to that number because 29 00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:39.040 we have fifteen members of Congress. So you know, if 30 00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:42.799 you're southwest Ohio, you have Greg Landsman, Warren Davidson, et cetera. 31 00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:46.200 So you have fifteen members of Congress plus two United 32 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:49.280 States Senators. That's how you get the seventeen. And that's 33 00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:53.680 based on population. So there are seventeen electoral votes that 34 00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.640 are cashed for president of the United States. And it's 35 00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:01.439 all done according to our States Constitution and ultimate State Law. 36 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:04.359 There's some provisions in both of those documents that kind 37 00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:06.760 of outline what we're going to do tomorrow. So what 38 00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:12.439 happens is early in the presidential contest, the various candates 39 00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:15.879 asked people to serve as electors, and being the state 40 00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:19.439 chairman of the Republican Party, you know, a Trump loyalist 41 00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:22.159 and supporter, they asked me to be one of those seventeen, 42 00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.919 along with sixteen other people that are equally as loyal 43 00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:29.879 and supportive of President Trump and who will honor the 44 00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:33.520 votes of the people of Ohio. So Billy, ultimately, on 45 00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:36.560 November the fifth, which was election Day, we got our 46 00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:41.479 directions from the voters of Ohio. We got directed to 47 00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:45.919 go and cast our electoral votes for President Donald J. Trump, 48 00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:48.280 to be now only forty fifth and now the forty 49 00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:50.800 seventh president of the United States. And we will do 50 00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:54.759 that tomorrow with much fanfare. At noon, which is the 51 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:57.560 hour of set by law. We will meet in the 52 00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:01.719 state capitol, and the governor would president, President of the 53 00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:05.879 Senate of Matt Huffman will be president, and other dignitaries 54 00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:10.879 of different kinds. And it looks like I will be 55 00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:13.319 sharing that process tomorrow, which again as a high honor 56 00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:17.520 for me, and we will cast our seventeen electoral votes 57 00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:21.599 I'm confident for President Trump, which will ultimately will forward 58 00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:25.479 those electoral ballots on to the House of Representatives in 59 00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:27.719 the United States House Representatives, and then we will live 60 00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:32.159 officially cast our electoral votes for President Donald Trump. 61 00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:35.159 So let's break it down. When we vote November the 62 00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:37.599 fifth for Donald J. Trump in the state of Ohio 63 00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:40.439 by like ten or twelve percentage points, what we actually 64 00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:43.280 did was select people like you on our behalf to 65 00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:45.400 go to the state capitol, which are going to be tomorrow, 66 00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:48.759 to vote for Donald Trump. Does every state capital meet 67 00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.159 on the same day, which is tomorrow at noon, or 68 00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:54.199 do different states have different dates that they meet. 69 00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:58.039 I believe there are different dates, and you know, I'm 70 00:03:58.080 --> 00:03:59.599 not sure what some of the other dates are across 71 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:02.879 the country. I know just as m for instance, Wisconsin, 72 00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:05.000 because I happened to be a good friend of the 73 00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:09.319 Wisconsin chairman, the great Brian Shimming, who also delivered his 74 00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:12.560 swing state for President Trump, the meeting tomorrow at noon 75 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.159 as well. But I think various states to do it 76 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:18.000 a couple of different dates. And you know, I didn't 77 00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:19.759 brush up on some of the rules here, but I 78 00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:23.279 will tell you that it happens during this window here 79 00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:26.680 after the election results are certified across the country. 80 00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:29.000 I understand from speaking with you off the air that 81 00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:31.720 some of the others selected by Donald Trump includes Sheriff 82 00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:35.240 Richard K. Jones. He's not likely to vote for Kamala Harris. 83 00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:37.879 Is that fair to say. 84 00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:41.160 Sheriff jonses as a great American? I know he's a 85 00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.959 frequent guest on this program, and I would stake my 86 00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:48.600 life on the idea that he will not be casting 87 00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:51.560 a ballot for Kamala Harris. There are some things you 88 00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.560 count on in life, Billy, like the sun coming off 89 00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:57.240 and you know, the girl ahead and paying your taxes. 90 00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:59.759 There's certainties in this world. One of those is that 91 00:04:59.839 --> 00:05:03.519 the good Sheriff, my friend and yours, Rick Jones, will 92 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:07.040 be casting his vote for Donald Trump and not for 93 00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:07.879 Kamala Harris. 94 00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:10.120 So that's good stuff. Another one is you. Another one 95 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:14.720 is my sister Diane Cunningham Reddin was selected by Donald 96 00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:16.639 Trump to be one the aunts of her voting for 97 00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:19.519 Kamala Harris and the same category as Richard K. 98 00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:20.000 Jones. 99 00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:23.240 Is that fair to say, you know, Billy, she's my 100 00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:25.000 favorite member of the Cunningham family. 101 00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:26.199 Let me just be clear about that. 102 00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:30.920 Diane Cunningham Reddon will also be joining us tomorrow and 103 00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.600 thrilled that she's joining us as an elector. You know, Billy, 104 00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:36.759 I want to say one very quick thing. And I 105 00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:39.199 know she's your sister and you love her and everything, 106 00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:42.319 but she's an outstanding Republican leader in her own right. 107 00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:47.519 She is the elected treasurer of the state Republican Party. 108 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:52.079 She runs the She Lead program here in Cincinnati. She's 109 00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:55.160 been a precinct and ward leader for a long time. 110 00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:57.160 The reason I say it, Billy, is if you're out 111 00:05:57.160 --> 00:05:59.759 there listening, you're thinking, well, Bill Cutnningham's sister, I got 112 00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.879 news for you, Billy Cunningham, this Dalk radio guy and 113 00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:06.560 a great guy. But but Diane Cunney Hambrett is a doer. 114 00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:10.000 She's a worker, she works hard for the Republican cause, 115 00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:13.199 and she's somebody that we all adore despite to her 116 00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:14.040 brother is Billy. 117 00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:16.720 And so the odds of her voting for Kamala Harris 118 00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:19.720 aren't likewise not good, and the odds of you voting 119 00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:23.199 for Kamala Harris not good. But in a tough race, 120 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:25.879 it may make a difference, which was like in twenty 121 00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:28.639 oh one, it was like two seventy one to two 122 00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:33.600 sixty nine. And there have been cases of disloyal electors. 123 00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:37.879 Explain if somebody, not the three we mentioned, but somebody 124 00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:41.160 near Cleveland who was picked by Donald Trump to vote 125 00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:44.360 for him. What if you have a disloyal, unfaithful elector 126 00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:46.920 who says, you know what, I had a bad morning, 127 00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:50.120 I'm voting for Kamala Harris. Is that possible because it's 128 00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:50.800 happened before. 129 00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.720 Well, yeah, it's in Ohio. Actually, there are lots of 130 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.560 safeguards in place. So if you're out there listening, you 131 00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:00.439 think that, well, gosh, he's seventeen people can flip the 132 00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.199 results and I you know, it's it's quite the flowchart 133 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:06.360 to get into. But there's very little concern about that. Yes, 134 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:10.240 there are some provisions for replacing faith with selectors. There 135 00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:13.000 are provisions for uh, you know, for kicking us over 136 00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:14.000 to the Pause. 137 00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:15.519 Of Representatives, and there's some other things. 138 00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:16.439 But under the. 139 00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:19.879 Law that would prohibit a faith with selector from from 140 00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:22.279 another process, that's not gonna happen. 141 00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:27.079 So explain, because it's fascinating. There's six ballots, So explain 142 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:30.439 to the American people, including Dave Keaton, my great producer. 143 00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:33.240 Explain to Dave, what how do you vote the actual 144 00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:34.240 six ballots? 145 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:35.120 Where do they go? 146 00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:38.800 And you're gonna sit there with Diane Cunningham Redden and 147 00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:42.079 Richard K. Jones and others, Alex t and you're going 148 00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:44.040 to actually vote the six ballots. 149 00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:45.519 What happened to the six ballots? 150 00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:49.600 Well, you know what happens is you are presented with 151 00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:51.480 these various ballots, and by the way, you have to 152 00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:55.639 cast a ballot for vote president and vice president, which 153 00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:58.680 again just to parenthetically, I what a high honor to 154 00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:03.040 cast a ballot for Ohio's very own Senator JD. Vance 155 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:05.720 for this important job as vice president. So we will 156 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:07.839 each we will each both these ballots, and there are 157 00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:10.920 six and then you know, one ballot goes you know, 158 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:13.160 I believe that a House of representats here at Ohio. 159 00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:15.160 One goes to the governor, one goes to the Secretary 160 00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:17.120 of State, and then you know a few of them 161 00:08:17.160 --> 00:08:18.519 that go to the federal government. 162 00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:20.839 So those six ballots go to all the people. 163 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.040 Billy again without chapter and verse here, as as I'm 164 00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.399 traveling around Ohio, tay exactly where each one goes, but 165 00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:27.519 each code where. 166 00:08:27.319 --> 00:08:27.879 They need to go. 167 00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:31.519 So people know who we've chosen to. 168 00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:34.039 Be a president of the United States and vice president. 169 00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:37.679 And so that happens, and so officially on January, I 170 00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:40.159 know of January sixth, seventh, or eighth, whatever it is. 171 00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:44.960 The ballots that the electors in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana actually voted, 172 00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:47.639 they're opened up and the well of the House of 173 00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:52.960 Representatives in Washington, and then Kamala Harris, your friend, Kamala 174 00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:56.360 Harris is going to be the resigning officer that puts 175 00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:58.360 Donald Trump in office. Is that correct? 176 00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:02.960 That is correct? And you know, Billy that I'll just 177 00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.480 take a minute and be bipartisan. It's the holiday season, 178 00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:06.600 but that's a good thing. 179 00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:06.879 You know. 180 00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:10.320 The peaceful transfer of power is important and I believe 181 00:09:10.399 --> 00:09:11.120 strongly in it. 182 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:15.000 And you know, we'll tell you now. 183 00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:17.399 I suspect that day will come and go with how 184 00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:20.080 much fanfare, But that is in fact true. The Vice 185 00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:24.080 President of the United States sits as presiding officer of 186 00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:27.279 the United States Senate, which also gives that vice president 187 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:29.879 a chance to break ties in the United States Senate. 188 00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:33.120 So in fact, Kamala Harris will sit just as Mike 189 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.559 Pence sat four years ago, is the presiding officer of 190 00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:38.159 that process. 191 00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:41.919 Wonderful. Now this all happens, so sometime the first week 192 00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:45.879 in January, when the ballots are opened and they're announced 193 00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:48.360 in the well of the House Representatives in Washington, d C. 194 00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:51.519 That's when Trump will be declared the winner of the 195 00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:52.639 twenty twenty four election. 196 00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:53.279 JD. 197 00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:56.639 Vansonb declared the winner the vice presidency. In the past, 198 00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:00.759 you've had different parties serving in that capacity. Parties the president, 199 00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.240 one party's the vice president. That's not going to happen 200 00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:06.440 this time. Trump's gonna take office January the twentieth, and 201 00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:09.279 all hell's going to break loose good stuff. Secondly, take 202 00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:12.320 off your electoral hat, Alex t take off your hat? 203 00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:13.200 Is your hat off? 204 00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:14.879 Yes? 205 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:19.200 Put on your partisan hat. Explain to me how Peggy 206 00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:21.559 noon and you you alerted me to this this morning 207 00:10:21.960 --> 00:10:26.200 and she normally has more lucid moments than many. Wrote 208 00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:29.399 a column for the Wall Street Journal and what she described, 209 00:10:29.559 --> 00:10:32.000 what Joe Biden is now doing. And by the way, 210 00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:36.720 this is a very consequential time in American history with Ukraine, 211 00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:40.519 with Israel, what's happening on our southern border, what's happening 212 00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:44.000 now with missiles flying over South Korea? Impeach the president. 213 00:10:44.120 --> 00:10:47.200 North Korea's arms are at the border. You have China 214 00:10:47.879 --> 00:10:52.039 encircling right now, Taiwan, all hell's breaking loose. Explain what 215 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:57.840 is happening with the drones. Explain Korea, Taiwan, Explain Ukraine, 216 00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:02.080 go into Israel. I'm a president right now, who's functioning 217 00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:02.919 an office or not? 218 00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:07.080 Well, no, I mean we don't. You know, Billy, I'm 219 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:08.879 not a big fan of bashing on Joe Biden. We 220 00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:09.600 did plenty of that. 221 00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:10.440 We want an election. 222 00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:13.200 It's time for him to sail off into the sunset. 223 00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:16.639 But the reason I answer this question is, and the 224 00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:18.919 reason I'm going to engage in a minimal amount of 225 00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:22.240 bashing of Joe Biden, is how little we're being flewed 226 00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:25.440 in by our mainstream press on this topic. Bill, Right, So, 227 00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:27.799 I mean, yeah, we that the point of the Peggy 228 00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:30.679 newton An article, since you referenced it, was how how 229 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:34.879 Joe Biden has just been shrinking, ever shrinking, in the presidency, 230 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.480 and how traditionally the president, the sitting president, is given 231 00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:42.879 leeway to finish out his term with some sense of dignity, 232 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.480 and you know, the newly elected president, you know, tends 233 00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:49.679 to stand down and build out the governments. Because really 234 00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:51.919 that's what they're doing with these various appointments, is building 235 00:11:51.960 --> 00:11:55.159 out their administration. Well, that's not happening here. Donald Trump 236 00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:58.320 is such a force of personality, and I don't you know, 237 00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:01.399 it's certainly not his fault. The world stage is already 238 00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:04.720 inviting him to things like the opening of the Cathedral 239 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:07.440 Dardab and things like the Army Navy game, you know, 240 00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:10.919 for it's something President Biden never did. So it is 241 00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:14.960 her point was, Donald Trump's star is so bright, and 242 00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:18.720 you know, his support so big for the American people 243 00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.799 that he's already essentially assumed the presidency and it feels 244 00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:24.799 like it. It feels like I do a lot of us. 245 00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:26.759 And you know what scares me is if we do 246 00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:29.480 have some kind of a national security crisis, because we 247 00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:31.519 all know abilly that you know, we've all seen in 248 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:33.840 our families. You know, it's a shame what's happened to 249 00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:36.759 Joe Biden from a personal perspective, But you know, I'm 250 00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:41.200 not convinced that that administration under his leadership is equipped 251 00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:45.120 to deal with a major international or god forbid, a 252 00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:48.879 national emergency. So you know, I'm concerned and begging in 253 00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:51.519 this point, is Donald Trump is is you know, this 254 00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:54.960 extraordinary political force. Of course, I believe that I'm one 255 00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:58.000 of his biggest supporters. That's not his biggest support in Ohio. 256 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:01.759 So you know, it's it's quite the moment, and politically, 257 00:13:02.240 --> 00:13:04.519 you know, it's good for us to have a strong leader. 258 00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:08.320 Donald Trump's approval rating is up since election day. No 259 00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:12.720 people see him asserting himself and stilling out an administration 260 00:13:12.879 --> 00:13:15.840 full of common sense people who care first about the 261 00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:20.519 American people, not about you know, the swampish bureaucracy in DC. 262 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:23.759 So things are on the upswing and as Republicans, we 263 00:13:23.919 --> 00:13:26.279 know the peddlms wing, but we're pretty excited right now 264 00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:28.600 about the ascendancy of one President Trump. 265 00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:29.360 We ALENX. 266 00:13:29.440 --> 00:13:32.879 Make sure the electors in Columbus, those in Frankfurt and Indianapolis, 267 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:35.320 they're well. They get up nice and early tomorrow. 268 00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:37.080 They know where they are. They got to be there. 269 00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:42.120 If the vote doesn't take place, Ohio's thirteen million citizens 270 00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:45.000 will not be represented. Get a good night's sleep, get 271 00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:47.799 up about six or seven in the morning, do your duty, 272 00:13:47.799 --> 00:13:49.799 as God gives you the light to see that duty 273 00:13:49.840 --> 00:13:52.519 at noon, and make sure that Donald Trump gets the 274 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:54.840 votes of the state of Ohio. I'm having the same 275 00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:58.480 conversation with Steve washing Machine in Indiana and also the 276 00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.360 Rob Sanders in Kentucky. This area is going to give 277 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:05.639 Donald Trump approximately thirty two electoral votes he earned three 278 00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:06.480 hundred and twelve. 279 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:07.519 We'll see what happens. 280 00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:10.159 Alex t get a good night's sleep, and once again, 281 00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:12.440 thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show.

The Bide administration will not, shall 300 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:15.080 we say, uh release the information. So I don't know 301 00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:17.240 if it's aliens from Alpha Centauri? 302 00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:17.559 Is it? 303 00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:18.679 This? 304 00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:21.480 Is it that uh? Deanriguez gets into all of it 305 00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:24.399 about twenty minutes. But until then, enjo every life, A 306 00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:28.480 little rain must fall, hopefully not too many thunderstorms. A 307 00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:30.360 little bit of darkness loudness in your life. 308 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:30.799 That's good. 309 00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:33.919 So on Wednesday of last week, I'm sitting here doing 310 00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:36.600 my duty as God has given me a light to 311 00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:40.600 see that duty, and I'm enjoying my time in talk radio. 312 00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:45.519 And the Mason High School transmitters are here to celebrate 313 00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:49.519 their state championship title we've scheduled. On Thursday of last week, 314 00:15:49.759 --> 00:15:52.399 Scott Tackett from Beechwood, the home of the Tigers, won 315 00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:55.679 the state football title anti Max schedule, of course, On Friday, 316 00:15:55.720 --> 00:15:58.559 the Crosstown shootout didn't go as I anticipated, but nonetheless, 317 00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:01.679 and I went down on to my favorite place to 318 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:07.440 have lunch, Skips Tallic contestant, got some lasagna, got some salad, 319 00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:10.279 had my ginger Ale about eleven thirty quarteral twelve. That's 320 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:13.720 going well. Tony Bender's with me orders exactly the same thing. 321 00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:17.039 We come upstairs. About one o'clock, I feel with volcanic 322 00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:20.759 eruptions starting in my stomach. You know how that goes 323 00:16:20.799 --> 00:16:22.159 about an hour or two ahead of time. It just 324 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:25.600 doesn't feel right, and the room gets a little bit circle. 325 00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:29.320 I'm spinning, a little bit spinning, but not like I 326 00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:32.480 can't stand up, barely stand up, and I start having 327 00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:35.600 stomach difficulties. Did my best to get through the whole 328 00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:37.360 three hours, but it didn't work that way. For the 329 00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:41.519 Great American. About ten till two, the Mason boys are 330 00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:44.399 here with a great group of kids. Answered all my questions, 331 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:48.919 including naming the five great Lakes, including name the heads 332 00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.639 on Mount Rushmore, tell me the kind of government we have? 333 00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:55.559 Who's the governor of Ohio? And the only group I've 334 00:16:55.600 --> 00:16:57.759 ever had in that answered all the questions were the 335 00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:01.039 boys from Mason Cross Country team. Great kids, but I 336 00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:03.480 knew about two o'clock I wanted to make it till 337 00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:06.240 if I could make it till three o'clock and go home. 338 00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:07.880 Didn't work out that way. 339 00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:11.039 Of course, the high school kids always have pictures taken 340 00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:14.000 with me out in the hallway. Pictures were taken, and 341 00:17:14.599 --> 00:17:16.960 I barely make it to the studio door, which is 342 00:17:17.000 --> 00:17:19.640 about twenty feet away. Come in and there's a waste 343 00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:23.559 paper basket right there, and my lunch went into the 344 00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:26.799 waste paper basket. And the room, instead of just moving, 345 00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:30.079 was spinning like I was in a cement mixer. And 346 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:33.400 I got on my phone. After I did my business 347 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:37.279 in the waste paper basket, I called Tony and said, Tony, 348 00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:40.319 can you come in here quick? So Tony comes in, 349 00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:42.799 thinking what is it at? Some of the residu on 350 00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:45.119 my shirt, my pants, and the rest was in the 351 00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:48.240 waste paper basket. Obviously I couldn't continue. I asked him 352 00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:50.519 to get Rock to continue in my behalf, and he 353 00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:53.960 stepped up. For the next two days, the Great American 354 00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:58.200 was a horizontal with a spinning room and upset stomach, 355 00:17:58.759 --> 00:18:02.519 and by Friday morning, I said enough is enough. I 356 00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:04.839 got a driver. As you know, my wife is injured 357 00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:07.480 and can't drive a car. She's at home and I'm 358 00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:10.480 caring for her, and uh so we get a ride 359 00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:14.480 down to uh doctor Mike, I'm sorry, Doctor David Fisher. 360 00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:17.680 David Fisher at christ and he does a battery of 361 00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:20.279 tests and he says, I have some good news and 362 00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:22.079 bad news. I said, well, give me the good news. 363 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:23.200 He said. 364 00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:25.799 The good news is, I think you have the forty 365 00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:28.640 eight hour virus, stomach flu, whatever you want to call it, 366 00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:32.559 upset stomach and it was horrendous. And secondly, I discovered 367 00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:36.400 some stones in your in your gallbladder. I said, rocks 368 00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:38.960 in my gallbladder. Many accused me of having rocks in 369 00:18:39.039 --> 00:18:42.319 my head. He said, no, we got some sludge in 370 00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:47.079 your gallbladder, but also we have some some stones. He said, 371 00:18:47.240 --> 00:18:51.440 I am not sure. I don't think this particular episode, 372 00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:55.880 which I've not had a good habit of of having before, 373 00:18:55.920 --> 00:18:56.880 it not to this extent. 374 00:18:57.000 --> 00:18:57.640 I don't think, he said. 375 00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:00.119 I I'm I'm guessing on this, but I think it 376 00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.759 was it was a stomach virus and it was not 377 00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:07.160 the gall bladder, but it could be both. I said, Okay, 378 00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:09.319 what do I do? He said, go home, and if 379 00:19:09.359 --> 00:19:12.599 by Monday you're not feeling better, then it's the gall bladder. 380 00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:15.960 If by Monday you're feeling better, then it's the forty 381 00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:19.440 eight hour virus flew upset stomach that's going around, which, by. 382 00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:20.119 The way, is terrible. 383 00:19:20.680 --> 00:19:23.440 And so by Sunday night, I was with you last night, 384 00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:27.400 I did my duty and I got through it with alacrity. 385 00:19:27.759 --> 00:19:31.200 Here I am today this afternoon, and so the gall 386 00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:33.519 bladder is going to be addressed down the road. But 387 00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:36.039 it reminded me once again how fragile life is. Just 388 00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:38.799 when you think life is going in the right direction. 389 00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:42.200 Life is good. I'm happy, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays. Something 390 00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:43.720 from out of the blue that you don't even think 391 00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:46.720 about occurring occurred, and thank god I made it to 392 00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:49.559 the waste paper basket before I left. My lunch somewhere 393 00:19:49.599 --> 00:19:53.039 on the carpet. Tony Bender had exactly the same delicious 394 00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:54.759 lasagna that I had at the same time. 395 00:19:55.279 --> 00:19:56.519 So it was one or the other. 396 00:19:56.640 --> 00:19:59.759 But I spent the last this weekend was iffy at best. 397 00:19:59.799 --> 00:20:01.839 By Sunday, I've perked up.
