i said no way. we left social security the way it was. well, now we're doing no tax for seniors. you deserve that. we have plenty of other things. we have -- i told you about liquid gold. we have more than anybody else. we don't have to do it. we don't have to hurt people on social security. so, we are going to do no tax on -- if a senior is on social security, and, also, no tax on tips for the waiters that are standing right next to you. >> laura: so, mr. president, i'm going to send it back to the couch but the people here are going to kill me if i don't ask you. they want to know will president trump be at the next sturgis right here to be with the people. [cheers] >> are you ready? i love sturgis. i love it. i love it. and i love that state. and that state we win by so much. the answer is absolutely yes. [cheers and applause] >> i will be there. absolutely yes. [cheers] >> lawrence: thank you, mr. president.

>> thank you, lawrence. thank you very much. [chanting u.s.a.] >> steve: that's exactly what they wanted to hear. lawrence in sturgis, very nicely >> thank you, it's great fun. thank you, talk to you soon. >> ainsley: we did invite kamala harris on our show, we haven't heard back. we have not received a response from her. she is welcome any time. did she text you, brian? >> brian: no. >> steve: does she have your number? when she called tim walz yesterday, he did not pick up. ab >> ainsley: she'll be on camera. >> steve: this entire program we've been talking about how last night we got to meet this man who will stand aside kamala harris as she races toward first tuesday in november. tim walz is a former teacher.

>> brian: moderate. >> ainsley: coach. >> steve: coguy everyone would like. football coach. served in a district donald trump eventually would win. it was his ability to attack won him a spot on television. he came up with the term "weird." >> ainsley: when you look at his record, it is so progressive, right there with bernie sanders and kamala harris. >> brian: don't you think left of gavin newsom? >> ainsley: i do. we'll go through his record. donald trump, republicans were more worried about josh shapiro. he is a moderate, he is pro-israel. they were concerned about that. moderates with josh shapiro a

and -- she is progressive and wants someone to be her friend and vote the way she does. we asked donald trump about this, listen. >> i can't believe it, i never thought this one would be picked. i helped him during the riots because his house was surrounded by people waving the american flag. he called me very concerned it was going to get out of control. they had one guard at his house in some form. i said, what do you want me to do about it? if you would put out the word i am a good person. i said, he's a good person, everybody took down their flags and their maga flags. thousands of people. that was first time i said, wow, that is interesting. he called me back and thanked me

very much. only thing i ever had to do with him. he's a very liberal man and a shocking pick and i'm thrilled, could not be more thrilled. >> brian: he put out on truth social right away, thank you. challenge they will have, they will not have a bunch of sound bites to run against. donald trump and j.d. vance said i'll tell you, answer any question, they don't want to talk about their past record or trans formation to make policy more palatable to the masses. team trump-vance and candidates themselves. >> steve: we learned mr. walz is far to the left and "new york post" headline is out of left field. brian's point about remaking her essentially her biography

without saying all that stuff i'm for, i'm against now, because i want to win. he is so far to the left, it makes her look moderate. in comparison. >> brian: vice president, attorney general, the d.a.? lawrence jones is in sturgess. >> ainsley: don't you think it is important for donald trump to get out there and focus on the issues? >> lawrence: yes, it's been my message entire time. i've said publicly, the issues are enough. look at what democrats are doing, for last 10 years, been making the same case. they called him a criminal, they said russia, they tried to impeach him. same old play book. we know progressives are doubling down on the agenda. if you want law and order, you

donbas don't want this governor to be "outnumbered" n-- your net vice president. it is important for the president to paint that case. it is beginning to rain in sturgis. talk about the brighter america, remind them about four years ago. love or hate, no one can deny the great trump economy. people said, i was able to hire more people, i had more money in my bank account, people are not feeling that right now, guys. >> steve: when we were speaking to donald trump, we addressed the fact walz and harris attacked him and talked about give us four years and we'll make things better. here is former president addressing that. >> we'll create jobs at level

you have never seen before. most successful administration from the economy standpoint never been any administration that was even close numbers wise. they had inflation the level which our country probably has never seen. they say, you go back 72 years. we probably never have seen inflation like that and it is killing, the same people he's talking about, it's killing. inflation destroyed their administration and they have no idea what to do about it, it is getting worse and you had crash over 1000 points, it is bad situation. we could end up in depression if people are re-elected. >> brian: we don't really know what kamala harris' economic principles are that are different from joe biden. she was praising bidenomics. will she run on what she did? she was by the president's side

or run on what she would do and admit she does not agree with what the president did, massive spending that caused spike in inflation. put interest rates high. >> lawrence: the website is blank right now. there is opportunity to say, this is what i believe. she has not taken the opportunity to put it on the website. >> ainsley: they were both pro riot, both pro-abortion, up until moment of birth. on his watch, five infants were born alive during failed abortions and none was -- they were trying -- none received life-saving care and two did receive comfort care and they passed away, according to minnesota department of health. during covid-19, they were

pro-lockdown. did not let kids did sports. they had a line you could tattle on friends if they did go out. they want to get ladders so illegal immigrants can get over the wall. fracking and drilling, she's been against fracking until two weeks ago and now trying to win pennsylvania, she's for it. >> brian: right now there is pause on all leases. lawrence, antisemitism and what it had to do with josh shapiro not getting status. if vane jones said, here is donald trump. >> we are trying to win new york and we're close to doing it right now with this team. this is the worst team ever assembled for a jewish person or

israel either one. this is a team that will not be there. i think i'm going to get t tremendous amount of jewish votes. i think i was doing fine there. traditionally, jewish people vote for democrats. we won last time, won miami and areas nobody has won before with jewish people. >> lawrence: brian, i am watching the vice president kamala harris yesterday and governor walz and kamala was better. walz was okay. before them was governor josh shapiro and he brings down the house. i may not agree on the issues, this guy is inspirational, riling the left. why didn't they pick this guy? nbc says they did favorability testing and amongst young

people, pro-hamas side don't like him. it is something democrats have to evaluate. are they going to allow pro-hamas side to control the narrative? they are concerned about michigan, they cannot win michigan unless they appease the pro-hamas side. >> ainsley: steve said something interesting, you read article about three choices. >> steve: according to "new york times," before she decided who was going to be her running mate, they did focus groups, pole testing and reviewed records and harris was told josh shapiro, kelly and walz, any three of them, you could win, pick whoever you want. problem with josh shapiro, one first thing he said, what are my duties? what is my power as vice president, which speaks to john

fetterman's criticism that he is ambitious and she would have to watch her back. there are a lot of progressives who labeled him, josh shapiro as genocide josh. so that speaks to the split within the democratic party. it all came down to who she got along with better. mark kelly was third choice. walz hit it out of the park. just tell me to do something and i'll do if. >> lawrence: point me to u unambitious politician. >> steve: apparently he was super ambitious. >> ainsley: bottom line is people would like him better than her. >> steve: he told them, i've

been governor for a while and never used a teleprompter and never used a teleprompter in public until yesterday when he did that speech and they were packed to the rafters and he did well. >> ainsley: i felt sorry for him temperature is politics, they are in the state of pennsylvania, 60 something percent approval rating. he is not selected and has to go on stage. lawrence, you said he got more applause when he was up there. >> brian: interrupted "the five" yesterday. there was a long pause, waiting for everything to die down. governor walz told kamala harris, i don't want to be president and that is what dick cheney said. that makes her think he will not run. >> steve: a eight years to chan

his mind. >> lawrence: the governor also said everything is right with joe biden. >> brian: so did tim walz. >> ainsley: so great, the three of us were interviewing donald trump, we wanted you to be included. producers had a great idea, why don't lawrence walk around sturgis and ask questions. you asked everyone what is most important to him. one voter asked president trump about energy and this was his response. watch this. >> mr. president, what can we do to achieve a permanent long-term energy solution to keep us energy independent? >> lawrence: great question. mr. president? >> great question and important question. we are run by people that are not smart people.

we have more liquid gold under our feet than any other country, russia, saudi arabia, more than anybody. we were energy independent four years ago and now we're begging venezuela for oil. venezuela? they don't even have oil, they have tar. you have to take tar and refine it. it is a terrible process. we have best, most beautiful, h hig highest quality oil under our feet. we don't use it. >> steve: over half an hour, we heard from former president about what he would do to bring down prices and make things more affordable, interesting as democratic ticket takes off to see how they explain how they will do it. i have a feeling it is going to be different. >> brian: they can't frack in pennsylvania, they stopped all new leases for no reason. just because they want to please

environmental groups. how are people of pennsylvania going to get around that. important with regulation and federalizing land, way of limiting drilling and fracking, subtle way to do it without saying it. talk to people in the oil and gas industry, they want no part of it. >> steve: democratic ticket is set. >> lawrence: isn't it great to have a candidate that is willing to answer questions, let us know where they stand on policy position and what they plan to do? i wish we could get same thing from kamala harris and hear from the current president of the united states. >> ainsley: trump and j.d. are all over the place. >> steve: we have invited harris and walz, invitation stands.

>> ainsley: he is at a christian breakfast with motorcyclists. >> brian: one person is leaving. >> steve: lawrence is at sturgis, in south dakota. >> brian: one person had to leave in the middle of your conversation. >> ainsley: you put the president on the spot, they want you to be here next year and he said, i give them my word i will be going. >> brian: we will drive as many motorcycles as lawrence does. >> steve: minnesota nat ive pet hegseth and will cain will react next to trump telling us he is thrilled about walz being kamala harris' v.p. pick. >> brian: they are running mates. you know, you only get one body. it might be the perfect size to do this. your body may take up a lot of space.

or have to speak with its hands. but no matter what body you're born with, you only get one. let's fight like hell for it. (♪)

killed in israeli operations responsible for thee october 7 massacre. >> brian: one terrorist mastermind killed in lebanon and ismail haniyeh killed in tehran in iran representing hamas. iran promised retribution that raman may be rethink ing attack. what are we giving away to iran to get them to possible attack back on israel? >> trey: giving them more time to move missiles into place. if a deal is cut to get them to stop the response at ip augusteration of the country's new president, would involve sanctions relief that would be used for the country's nuclear

gaza. i interviewed them after they were released during the ceasefire. we speak with the defense minister gallant, senior hamas leaders, doctors to get a clear picture what october 7, black saturday, was like and what days were like inside gaza. five separate times, i was with israeli military as they battled inside gaza strip. this book takes the reader on that journey and what it was like as a reporter to witness death and destruction. i talk about what it was like for me personally, the challenges dealing with post traumatic stress. seeing civilians killed in front of me. it is not easy reporting, you

noem is live with lawrence. hi, guys. >> lawrence: good morning, great governor for great state of south dakota with me. you heard that gentleman on your left describing biden's america, will things get better? >> they will if president trump gets back in the white house. president trump said it when he talked about energy, everything in our economy is run on energy. we're trans porting groceries, family vacation, if we can drive down energy cost that will impact everything a family needs to take care of day-to-day lives. grocery store prices have gone up, medical bills are going up. they are making decisions if they can buy kids new tennis shoes for school or a babackpac.

when president trump was in the white house, they could prepare. >> lawrence: good point. kamala harris decided on her vice presidential pick. you got elected at the same time, you in south dakota and him in north dakota. what do we need to know about him? >> he's radical. it is interesting how different decisions impacted the state differently. he shut down his state and he attacked me for hosting the sturgis motorcycle rally. he said this place was spreading covid. >> lawrence: this is outdoor. >> it is, these people love their freedom and understand government should not take it away. governor walz took away freedom of his people.

people move to get away from his policies. riots started in minnesota under his watch. he called surrounding governors and asked for help. he panicked and called us for help to bring law and order back to his streets. that is remarkable, he is not a decision-maker. he promised law enforcement more and did not follow through. he supported blm. >> lawrence: thank you for joining us this morning. guys issue it's been great being at sturgis, i will send it back to you on the couch. >> steve: nicely done. >> ainsley: tell them hello. >> steve: indeed. say hello to bill hemmer employs >> bill: love sturgis and that part of the world. good show, guys.
