CANDIDATE DONALD TRUMP AND HIS NEWLY MINTED RUNNING MATE, JD VANCE ARE BACK ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL.

IT COMES AFTER LAST WEEK'S REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION, A WEEK OF RALLYING, WHICH INCLUDED SPEECHES FROM POLITICAL LEADERS, CELEBRITIES AND SO-CALLED EVERYDAY AMERICANS.

THIS WEEK FOR THAT WEEK ALSO SAW MESSAGES ABOUT PUBLIC SAFETY, INFLATION, IMMIGRATION AND MORE HERE TO SHARE THEIR TAKEAWAYS ARE FORMER ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN JOE WALSH AND PASTOR COREY BROOKS, THE CEO OF PROJECT, COULD ALSO DELIVERED THE CLOSING PRAYER ON THE SECOND NIGHT OF THE RNC.

GENTLEMAN.

WELCOME BACK.

THANKS FOR JOINING US.

SO FIRST, I WANT TO I WANT TO START WITH BOTH OF YOU.

GETTING YOUR REACTION TO THE NEWS THAT WE'VE ALL BEEN TALKING ABOUT TODAY FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THAT PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN WILL NOT SEEK THE NOMINATION FOR RE-ELECTION.

HE SUSPENDED HIS CAMPAIGN AND THROWN HIS HIS BEHIND KAMALA HARRIS.

JOE WALL STARTING WITH YOU FIRST, PLEASE.

WHAT'S YOUR REACTION?

I THOUGHT IT WAS GREAT.

I THINK IT WAS.

JOE BIDEN DID SOMETHING YESTERDAY THAT DONALD TRUMP IS INCAPABLE OF DOING.

HE PUT HIS COUNTRY FIRST.

HE BELIEVES TRUMP IS AN EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO OUR DEMOCRACY.

I DO TOO.

I THINK JOE BIDEN FINALLY REALIZE CAN'T BEAT TRUMP.

TRUMP NEEDS TO LEGISLATION AND I THINK HIS VICE PRESIDENT TURNING IT OVER TO HIS VICE PRESIDENT, I THINK, MAKES THE CHANCES OF BEATING DONALD TRUMP MUCH, MUCH GREATER.

I THINK YOU'LL SEE A LOT OF I'M GLAD BIDEN DID WHAT HE DID.

PASTOR BROOKE, SAME QUESTION TO YOU WITH YOUR REACTION TO THE CHANGE.

YOU KNOW, I IT'S GOOD THING FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

YOU KNOW, IT'S OBVIOUS PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SUSTAINED FOR THE DURATION OF THE ELECTION.

SO IT WAS GOOD FOR THEM TO TURN IT OVER.

AND AS FAR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS CONCERNED, WE'RE NOW READY TO PUT UP A GOOD FIGHT AND HAVE A GOOD BATTLE FOR THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES.

AND SO I THINK GOING FORWARD, GOING TO OUR MESSAGING ON POINT AND YOU'RE GOING TO SEE ALL THE REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR THE CANDIDATE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

PASTOR BROOKS, TO THAT YOU KNOW, HOW WILL THE GOP GO AFTER THE DEMOCRATS AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS, IF SHE BECOMES THE NOMINEE?

WELL, IT'S OBVIOUS.

FIRST OF ALL, ON IMMIGRATION, I THINK ONE OF THE HARDEST PLACES THAT THEY'RE DEFINITELY GOING TO BE MESSAGING LETTING EVERYONE KNOW ON THAT.

WE NEED TO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO OUR RECORD.

WAS THE CZAR OF IMMIGRATION.

AND RIGHT NOW ON THE WAY TO FROM ALL THE SOUTHERN BORDER MEXICO, 3,000 PEOPLE ARE ON THEIR WAY TO ENTER INTO AMERICA.

THAT'S BECAUSE OF FAILED POLICIES OF IMMIGRATION, THAT THAT LIE SOLELY ON THE VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS.

JOE WALSH, YOU'VE SAID THAT THE FORMER PRESIDENT HAS A, QUOTE, A HARD TIME WITH STRONG WOMEN HOW DOES THIS, HOW DOES HER PART, YOU KNOW, SEEKING THE NOMINATION?

HOW DOES THAT CHANGE THE COURSE MEMBERS TIME?

AND BY THE WAY, LET ME JUST GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO MY FRIEND AND BROTHER COURT PASTOR COREY BROOKS.

IT'S SO GOOD TO WITH THEM.

DOSE MIRACULOUS WORK ON CHICAGO'S SOUTH SIDE PROJECT.

PUT EVERYBODY GET INVOLVED.

LOOK, I THINK DONALD TRUMP IS GOING HAVE A REALLY DIFFICULT TIME DEALING WITH KAMALA HARRIS, THE TRUMP AND THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN.

THEY WERE ALL SET TO GO AFTER, YOU KNOW, AT 81 YEAR-OLD JOE BIDEN.

I THINK THAT TRUMP'S CHEERLEADERS IN THE MEDIA WELL GET PRETTY UGLY AND THEY'LL ENGAGE IN THE SEXIST, RACIST KIND OF STOP.

AND THAT'S ALREADY OUT THERE.

BUT I THINK TRUMP HIMSELF IS GOING TO HAVE A REALLY TOUGH TIME.

SHE'S A PROSECUTOR.

SHE'S TOUGH.

I DON'T KNOW THAT HE'S GOING TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO DEAL WITH.

SO MOVING BACK TO THE RNC LOOKING AT LAST WEEK, THE OVERALL MESSAGE WAS SAID TO BE UNITY, PARTICULARLY IN THE WAKE OF THE ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT LAST WEEKEND OR A WEEK AGO.

AND IT THAT THE FORMER PRESIDENT WAS EMBRACING THAT MESSAGE AS WELL.

BUT THEN HE TOOK THE STAGE AND WENT OFF SCRIPT AS HE IS KNOWN TO DO.

HERE'S A LOOK.

I AM RUNNING TO BE PRESIDENT FOR ALL OF AMERICA, NOT HALF OF AMERICA BECAUSE THERE IS NO VICTORY IN WINNING.

FOR HALF OF AMERICA.

IN THAT SPIRIT, THE DEMOCRAT PARTY SHOULD IMMEDIATELY STOP WEAPONIZING THE JUSTICE SYSTEM AND LABELING THEIR POLITICAL OPPONENT.

AS ENEMY OF DEMOCRACY.

AND WE DON'T HAVE FEARS PEOPLE.

WE HAVE PEOPLE THAT ARE A LOT LESS THAN FIERCE EXCEPT WHEN IT COMES TO.

CHEATING ON ELECTIONS AND A COUPLE OF OTHER THINGS AND THEIR FEARS.

PASTOR BROOKS, WHAT MESSAGE DID YOU HEAR FROM HIM?

AND DID YOU HEAR THAT?

THAT MESSAGE OF UNITY, THAT SO MANY OF THE OTHER SPEAKERS OVER THE COURSE OF THE WEEK HAVE BEEN SHARING.

YES, ONE OF THINGS I COULD REALLY APPRECIATE ABOUT THE RNC AND LAST WEEK IS THAT THE MESSAGING WAS ON POINT FROM THE BEGINNING ALL THE WAY TO THE END.

WE WERE VERY CLEAR ON OUR STANCE WANTING TO BRING BACK SAFETY TO AMERICA.

I THINK THAT IS ON THE FOREFRONT OF EVERYONE'S MIND.

WHO IS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.

THE FACT THAT WE HAVE A COUNTRY THAT IS SO UNSAFE THAT THE PRESIDENT, I'D ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

AND WE DID VERY JOB ADDRESSING THAT ISSUE.

I ALSO WE TALKED A LOT ABOUT THE ECONOMY AND WHICH IS SO IMPORTANT.

PEOPLE ARE WORRIED ABOUT HOW ARE THEY GOING THERE?

PAPER TO GROCERIES ARE AT ALL-TIME HIGH AND THAT FEELS ARE RUNNING RAMPANT.

WE SPOKE TO THOSE ISSUES DIRECTLY TO THE AMERICAN ISSUES THAT PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT.

AND THAT'S THAT'S WHERE WE HAVE TO KEEP THE MESSAGING.

WE CAN'T GET OFF ON RAIN.

WE CAN GET UP ON GENDER.

WE HAVE TO KEEP THE MESSAGING VERY CLEAR ABOUT AMERICAN CITIZENS.

JOE WALSH INTO THE CONVENTION APPEAR TO BE PRETTY WELL ORGANIZED.

AS WE'VE SAID, MOST OF THE SPEAKERS KEPT ON MESSAGE.

A FEW POWERFUL MOMENTS IN PARTICULAR THAT HEARING FROM SO MANY OF THE GOLD STAR FAMILIES WHAT DID WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THE CONVENTION OVERALL?

LOOK, IT'S I AGREE WITH PASTOR COREY.

IT WAS IT'S A VERY UNIFIED PARTY.

THIS IS TRUMP'S PARTY.

IF YOU DON'T SUPPORT TRUMP, THERE'S NO ROOM FOR YOU IN THAT PARTY, WHICH NO LONGER IN THE PARTY.

BUT IT'S TRUMP'S PARTY AND ITS VERY UNIFIED.

BUT LET'S BE CLEAR ABOUT SOMETHING BUILT BY THE HAS SPREAD MORE HATE AND DIVISION IN THIS COUNTRY.

THE PAST 8 YEARS.

THEN DONALD TRUMP HAS AND HE'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE.

HE'S CAPABLE OF CHANGE.

SO HE'LL CONTINUE TO DO THAT.

AND IT'S GOING TO BE UP TO KAMALA HARRIS AND THE DEMOCRATS TO MAKE THE CASE THAT WERE BETTER.

THEN WHAT DONALD TRUMP THINKS WE ARE A LOT OF THE CONVENTION LAST WEEK WAS, YOU KNOW, I JUST AGAIN PRESENTING THE DARK SIDE OF AMERICA AND AMERICA'S BURNING AND THERE'S THERE'S AN IMMIGRANT AND A CRIMINAL ON EVERY STREET CORNER.

TRUMP APPEALS TO THE WORST IN KNOTS AND THAT WORKS WITH SOME PEOPLE.

BUT I'M HOPING THAT BELIEVE THAT KAMALA HARRIS WILL APPEAL TO THE BEST THEM OUT IN AND I THINK MORE AMERICANS WANT THAT.

I THINK THAT'S WHAT HE IF YOU THINK THAT THERE'S NOT.

CRIMINALS ON EVERY STREET CORNER BECAUSE OF IMMIGRATION.

I WOULD INVITE YOU COME TO CHICAGO AND SEE FOR YOURSELF THAT THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS HAVE BEEN RELEASED INTO OUR COUNTRY.

AS YOU WERE ABLE TO SEE LAST WEEK WITH THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO TALKED ABOUT HOW THEIR FAMILIES WERE DEVASTATED BECAUSE OF IMMIGRANTS COMING INTO THE COUNTRY.

NOW, LISTEN, WE WANT IMMIGRANTS.

WE BELIEVE THAT WE SHOULD HAVE IMMIGRATION BUT OPEN BORDERS IS SOMETHING THAT WE CAN JUST NOT ALLOW BECAUSE WHAT WE DO THAT CRIME IS GOING TO CONTINUE JUST TO GO UP.

AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE EXPERIENCING IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO WHERE YOU'VE SEEN IMMIGRANTS WHO HAVE COMMITTED THESE HIDEOUS CRIMES.

AND THAT'S GOING ON ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND WE SHOULD NOT TURN A BLIND EYE TO IT.

RUNNING OUT OF TIME, GENTLEMEN, WE'VE GOT JUST UNDER A MINUTE LEFT AND THE OTHER BIG PIECE OF NEWS LAST WEEK, OBVIOUSLY IMMIGRATION WAS A BIG THEME, BUT SO WAS THE SELECTION SENATOR JD VANCE HAS DONALD TRUMP'S RUNNING MATE.

COUPLE OF WORDS ON YOUR REACTION TO THAT FIRST.

PASTOR BROOKS TO YOU.

YOU KNOW, I WAS PULLING FOR TALES.

GOT ON TEAM'S GOT FANS.

BUT I LIKE JD VANCE.

I THINK, YOU WILL BE UP COMPLEMENT THE PRESIDENT.

AND SO I'M I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING HIS DEBATE WHEN IT HAPPENS WHEN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY PICKS THEIR VICE PRESIDENT.

YOU KNOW, HE'LL DO VERY WELL.

JOE WALSH.

I THINK IT WAS IN HAIR AGAIN PICK.

IT WAS A COCKY PICK.

IT'S THICK THAT'S AS TRUMP THINKS HE'S GOT THING IN THE BACK.

JD VANCE DOESN'T WANT TRUMP HE DOESN'T FEEL MODERATE CENTRIST VOTERS.

HE'S A MARKET GUY.

I THINK IF DONALD TRUMP UNDERSTOOD TO REALIZE THAT KAMALA HARRIS WAS GOING TO BE THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE, I THINK HE PICK SOMEBODY DIFFERENT.

I THINK THIS PICK AND JD VANCE IS GOING TO COME BACK AND BITE HIM IN THE REAR END, THE CAMPAIGN KEEPS GETTING MORE GENTLEMEN, THANK YOU BOTH FOR JOINING US.
