Eric Bolling
Welcome back. We're going to go right to our DC Studio and John Solomon. John, put this in perspective. The first hundred days of the second term, sir.
John Solomon
Historic by any measure compared, compared to any president in modern history. More action, more campaign promises delivered, more energy, more freneticism, more impact on the globe. But at the end of the day, this presidency and its arc, its record of success, will be defined in the next 100 days. What happens in the next 100 days will determine how far this president can rise, how far his achievements are. Congress has to do its job. It hasn't yet. It has to do its job. By the second hundred days, if the president gets trade deals in place with major countries, even if China's isolated on the outside, this becomes a historic presidency. Tax cuts renewed. You're going to have an economic boom that looks like the 1990s if peace is brought to Iran or to Russia in Ukraine. So unexpected, that will accelerate a global movement around the Trump Doctrine. But the second hundred days are going to be more important. In the first hundred days and the ball is in. Republican score.
Eric Bolling
Okay, hang on one second. You're saying by July, by the way, the president may walk out at any moment. We're going to cut right to that.
Steve Bannon
Sure.
Eric Bolling
Solomon, you're saying by the 29th of July, that's the second hundred days. Right. In these next nine. No. Be first. It would actually be. No.
John Solomon
The first of little August. Early August.
Eric Bolling
Yeah, early August. What, what would give me your two or three things that have to happen, sir, to make it historic.
John Solomon
They got to get the tax cuts done. They got to shrink the size of government. They got to get some trade deals to prove that the tariffs really work like they look like they're working right now. You accomplish those three things. The economic boom that's on the horizon for America and for the globe is epic. You throw in one peace deal, maybe it's Iran unexpectedly, though I don't think the mullahs are going to deal or Russia, Ukraine. And now the Trump doctrine is affirmed, it really works on the global stage and there's nothing the media can write about, then that will tarnish what this president has accomplished.
Steve Gruber
Huge. Huge. Yeah, that, that. If two of the three that you mentioned, John, happen, it's already historical.
John Solomon
I'm just, it would be historic.
Steve Gruber
I made I happy about what Cash is doing with the FBI as well. I don't know if you saw this now. He is seriously weeding out the, the anti Trump people, folks within the FBI. And it's a, it's a tall, tall task. Right, John? There's a lot of that going on. They're the deep state. Turns out is isn't a conspiracy theory at all, is it?
John Solomon
No, it's not. And listen, there's also just legacy from the Biden administration that massively threatens all of our lives. There are 1200 known terrorists on our soil that came in during the Biden years that they're trying to find and get out here. That distracts a lot of resources. Right. You want to get and take the guy the bad guys from January six who turned the government against us or Russia collusion. But you want to get the terrorists out first. They're balancing that and President Trump has done it. 74 terrorists knocked off in the first three months of this president overseas. That's historic. But there's a lot of work done. The Biden presidency created far more harm, far more damage to this country than most of us. Appreciate it.
Eric Bolling
Okay, I'm gonna go around the horn until the president comes out. Solomon, you've been doing this for a long time knowing the institutions and how tough they are to change in Washington D.C. this is Imperial capital, folks like Rome, ancient Rome. What has been the most impressive thing that you've seen the president states do in his first hundred days?
John Solomon
I think showing that the tariff strategy can achieve prosperity just like strength achieve peace during Reagan is going to be the greatest legacy. No one thought he had the courage to do it. All of the Wall Streeters were trying to talk him out of it. He did it. I think it's the single greatest transformation. He can bring China to its knees in the next few months if he does it right.
Eric Bolling
By the way, you got a story. We'll get to it tomorrow. About delisting about not Wall Street. You know, Bolling's buddies. Financing. Financing these guys financing the Chinese Communist party in their military time you gave us. You did side eye when he was just talking about you. Do you do agree that the tariffs.
Steve Gruber
Are massive if the end result is as planned? That tariffs come down unilaterally across every.
Eric Bolling
What do you think's the most impressive thing he's done in the first hundred.
Steve Gruber
No doubt he's. He's shut the border down. I mean that's.
Eric Bolling
It's insane because Langford told us, remember? And you're the first guy to bring it up. Lankford had a formula. It was 2 million a year before anything triggered before anything triggered from being.
Steve Gruber
The Senate Republicans who proposed a deal. Immigration deal that started didn't kick in until 2 million illegally came across per year. And, and then they say, what's wrong with this deal? They're brilliant to walk away from that garbage.
Eric Bolling
Brian Glenn, give it to me. You're up close and personal on it every day in the White House. What's the most impressive thing you've seen about President Trump in the first hundred days? Sir.
Brian Glenn
I gotta say, the border hearing the Tom Holman talk about the number of apprehensions that are, they're, they're not having at the border went from what, 15,000 a day at one point to having maybe a couple dozen at the border. It's just a massive closure that he's done at the border, which trickles down to the amount of sex trafficking that's gone over, amount of drugs that I've gone over. So it's got to be the border. And I would say, number two, winning on the cultural war, keeping men out of women's sports, standing up for families, standing up for Christians. That's got to be the top two for me.
Eric Bolling
Steve, what is the different vibe? We asked, we asked Natalie this earlier. What's the different vibe at the White House, particularly on the press side, when you talk about the culture?
Brian Glenn
Well, there's obviously, you know, MAGA in the, you know, in the briefing room, which is great. It's nice to look around and see that from what I've been told from the bike, what music is stuck, I thought we might get Trump walking out here. It's been the, the over, I would say the balance now that we now have a chance to not only ask the President a question that we need to know, but it also gives to focus on the good things that he's doing for our country. All the good things. Trust me, Steven, you know this. The legacy media is not going to focus on any of the positive. And so I try to be an alternative voice in that room to give not only the Trump administration a choice, a chance to talk about it, but also I just kind of want to elbow some of the legacy news to let him know that, hey, maga's in the room. You're not going to run amok like you used to do.
Eric Bolling
Brian Glenn, you will live in the annals of the White House Correspondent association forever. Hey, you got a suit? Do you own a suit? It's changed the direction of world history.
Steve Gruber
What's your most impressive Trump victory so far?
Eric Bolling
The most impressive Trump victory is every day showing up and doing it like a house of fire. I've never seen the energy. This man's 78 years old. This is 18 people should know this guy sleeps four or five hours a night. He's on it. This is 20 hours a day. If you think about it of like John trying to stop the kinetic third world war, deal with tariffs, take down the administrative state, deal with China, everything he's doing drugs, shutting the border, you know, they tell them to take years and 2 million shut it in 60 days. It's just the fact that every day he shows up and represents and if you see him in the Oval, it's like every day's the same day. It's the same energy, it's the same graciousness, it's the same. I mean, who does that? It's his superpower is his ability just to do it at such an intense high level like these rallies. I mean he feeds off the energy of people. But to me the greatest accomplishment is just this entire revolution that he's done. Solomon, real quickly, you've been in this town for 30 years, you know how hard it is to change. Look at the monumental things mean any one thing in and of itself, they'd be talking about it for what somebody did. In 100 days he's done 25 or 30 of these. Right. And they're not small things to change the commercial basically interactions of the world to change the geopolitics of the world to bring us back to hemispheric defense, to take on an existential threat that's been built up by the enemies of his movement. Wall street, the global corporatist Silicon Valley.
Steve Gruber
Put NATO on notice and put NATO on notice.
Eric Bolling
The Russian army is your issue. We got the Russian Navy, everything. Solomon, have you ever seen. Just tell people, given Bush and Obama, I don't care if you're Republican or Democrat. How kind of tiny steps presidents take. This guy comes in essentially like a savage and just takes it all on. Every day it's the same guy.
John Solomon
Yeah, and he's done it. He's the first president in my lifetime and maybe the first president in history that hasn't needed the intelligentsia and the elitists of Washington affirm what he's doing. Every one of those elitists are opposing him and it only gives him more energy to deliver to the everyday Americans. This is a president connected to middle America and not to the White House Correspondents association or the power parties in Washington or the elitists who run media, politics and business in this country. He never forgets who put him in office and the reason he's in Michigan tonight and not sitting with alligator shoot lobbyists in Washington is. He's the first president who hasn't needed the Washington establishment to get things done.
Eric Bolling
What do you anticipate his message is going to be tonight for his one, his faithful and two, the nation and three, the world.
John Solomon
I think he will tell Americans that I'm glad what we did the first hundred days and I'll go through it quickly. But you know what? It's the next 100 days, 100 days after that, all 1200 days of my presidency. That's what's going to matter. Lean into an agenda. If you think you're exhausted by what he's accomplished and put on the table, he's probably going to exhaust you tonight by putting about another hundred items on the to do list. Get ready.
Eric Bolling
So, so great. Gruber put us in the room out there at Macomb County. What's the, what's the anticipation like?
Steve Bannon
Well, it's YMCA time, Steve O. That's what time it is here. One of my predictions has come true already, although the president's not dancing. Look, I want to agree with John Solomon and I agree with John salman. The next 100 days are critical to the future of this presidency. The Republicans have got to get it done. One big beautiful bill, whatever they want to call it, they've got to get it done to execute Donald Trump's agenda or it was all for nothing. We can't tolerate that. And I agree with you. I think the most impressive thing about the first 100 days is the pace, the absolute brute force for which he has taken on this office. I mean, that United States Marine detachment is outside the oval office at five in the morning. Oftentimes it doesn't leave until 11 o'clock at night. It is a remarkable feat for a person of any age. For a guy who's 78 years old, it's incredible. So here in the room you can feel it. It's the Village People. Obviously, Donald Trump, one of his favorites. They performed, as you know, at the inauguration, Steve, we saw it ourselves and he set a party mood here. Look, as we talked about earlier, the people here in Macomb county, they are completely satisfied with the first 100 days, despite the misgivings from those on the left and the naysayers on MSNBC and Chicken Noodle News. We don't care about that. They him here and they're willing to give him some grace. If a tariffs drive up cost for a bit or the stock market's a bit bumpy for a few days or even a few weeks, they're okay to live with that because they know he's got a job to do and that's untangled a mess created over the last 20, 30, 40, 50 years in this country. You know, allowing China to run roughshod over us and take advantage of us and steal our intellectual secrets. They're okay. Giving Donald Trump the birth, the. The opportunity to do the job he was elected to do by 77 and a half million people. So I expect, I think, going to blow the roof off this place when he comes in. That's what I think.
Eric Bolling
What message, what message do you anticipate he's going to give to the nation in the world today from Michigan?
Steve Bannon
Promises made, promises kept, and the job is just getting started. I think that's the message for Michigan today, that he has a lot of work to do. He's going to talk, I bet he's going to talk about stopping at Selfridge Air Force Base, making a promise to deliver those F15. He's going to talk about the tariffs and the jobs that are coming back to America. He's going to talk about delivering auto jobs back to Michigan. He's going to talk about how he's fighting for the middle class and people that have become part of the Trump coalition. He's going to fight for American families. He can talk about the price of eggs, the fact that inflation is now 2.4% and unemployment across the country is 4.2%, although in Michigan it's at about five and a half percent. He's going to address that and say, hey, I need to make it better for Michigan and I'm working for you. I think that's the message. I've got my sleeves up. I'm working for you every single day. Think that's the message that the President can deliver to the people here? Look, these are the faithful. These are people that here that voted for him probably three times, many of them. Although I do see some younger faces in the crowd, young Trump supporters. And remember this new young generation of Americans, the most conservative maybe in my lifetime. These young people coming up, maybe the most conservative my lifetime, because they've seen what the options are. But they can have Joe Biden and his agenda or Donald Trump and his agenda.
Eric Bolling
Okay, thank you very much for Eric Bolan keeping me entertained here in breaks. I want to go to our own Brian Glenn. Brian, you've been on Air Force One, you've been out Selfridge. Tell us what's going on today, sir.
Brian Glenn
Yeah, I just walked in the building and the crowd is energized. I Actually ran into several people, fans that have been on the campaign trail, going to all the rallies throughout the year, Steve. So it's kind of a great reunion, but the energy here is electric. But let me tell you something. At that National Air National Guard that we just did before we came here, when he announced this new generation of fighter jet that we're getting, the applause in that room was massive. Then the applause for him when he walked out, Steve, was extended. It was other. In other words, they really wanted to show President Trump how much they appreciate him for coming to Michigan and supporting the military and having this next generation fighter jet that is soon to be making their appearance at these air bases around the country. So, Stephen, Governor, uh, Whitmer there, I gotta say I. She showed a little appreciation, obviously, for what was taking place, but I wanted to hear her specifically say, thank you, President Trump, for bringing this to the great state of Michigan. I did not hear that. I heard some general appreciation, which is good. But I wanted a little bit more, Steve. I wanted her to really dig in and be thankful for what President Trump has done for this state. But no doubt, if there was any question whether or not the military also appreciates the Defense Secretary, he got a huge applause as well.
Eric Bolling
Hold it, Brian. You got to help us out here. Did she go cosplaying Kristi Noem today? I mean, it's pretty shocking that she just ripped off Kristi Noem's look.
Brian Glenn
That's. That's interesting. And she said that she didn't plan on being called on and coming up and saying a few words. So that what I did get her off guard. But she did walk up, she showed appreciation, and I actually thought it was Christy Dom when we landed there on the ground first. So she met the President as he stepped off Air Force One. I thought it was Christy. No. Until we got inside and I realized, wait a minute, like, that's not Christy. No, but it looked like her.
Eric Bolling
Talk to us. Give us. Put us on the plane. Air Force One. What was the excitement like? What was the vibe like? I mean, this is a historic day. From the greatest political comeback in the history of the world to now the first hundred days of the second term. Tell me what it was like, sir.
Brian Glenn
Yeah, well, on the plane and I got my list in my pocket. I'll get out here in a second. CNN was the lead television pole on here. We were the second. We also had Huffington Post and I want to say the ap, Reuters. We had the kind of the usual photographers on the plane. Very short flight about an hour and eight minutes from takeoff to touchdown. A little rough landing there. We had some high winds here in the area. But let me. You know, I feel like getting on that plane after the first incredible 100 days that we, we've had. And if you rattle off the list of things, I know that you guys have been doing that throughout the broadcast. It's mind boggling. This is a list, Steve, that you would expect a president after four years of service, not just 99 days, but after four years of service. And so everything from the border to the economy, he's crushing it. Earlier, I had some feedback from the floor manufacturers. Now this is, is something I want our audience to know here, how these tariffs are helping the American businessman. The flooring industry in Georgia, as you probably know, is the biggest in the world. It's the flooring capital of the world. The major floor manufacturers are telling us that these tariffs are now making it very competitive now to get that business because India, China, Turkey and other countries have been undercutting American flags floor manufacturers for years, pricing them out of certain jobs. But now the playing field with these tariffs makes it where they now have an opportunity and they are flourishing with new business. And so that's great. I also talked to a gentleman earlier that met with the concrete manufacturers in different states. They are pumped up to what they're seeing with these tariffs. Steve, it's a good thing. Despite what many sitting right over there might tell you about these tariffs, I'm telling you from the, from the, from the businessman's mouth, it's a good thing for American businesses.
Eric Bolling
Hang on, Brian, hang on, hang on. You gotta tell, you gotta tell. Bowling, this was not a setup. Okay? We did not. I'm not an ambush. I'm not texting Brian. Glenn is a good buddy. I did not text him. My producer.
Brian Glenn
Your thoughts, Bowling?
Eric Bolling
Yeah.
Brian Glenn
Yeah. Well, what's, what's interesting about Eric, as I totally appreciate him, Marjorie, and I was talking about him just last night saying that I know he wasn't the biggest fan of the tariff, but he wants to win. And I think that's what makes Eric so special, is he may not be a fan of every policy and none of us are. I'm not a fan of poking the bear with Iran. I don't want to get into military escalation with Iran. I just don't. Don't like that. Of course, I don't have information. Perhaps President Trump has.
Steve Gruber
I'll tell you honestly, Eric wants to win.
Brian Glenn
Yeah.
Steve Gruber
Hearing what you said about the flooring industry in Georgia, that. That's music. That it. Here's my issue with this whole tariff. It started out with. With a good intention. Let's just. Let's threaten. Let's threaten. Reciprocate, reciprocative tariffs to bring all the tariffs down. And at some point it evolved into let's get the world at our feet begging to. For our approval, you know, for Trump to approve them. And it turned. It turned in the wrong way. If it is to bring down tariffs across the board, great. And if it is to. I'll tell you what else. The used car industry in America is flourishing under these tariffs. Anything that's produced here already, yeah, you guys are gonna. They're gonna crush it. And that is good news.
Eric Bolling
Don't you see that as the future, though? That's to bring these manufacturing jobs back.
Steve Gruber
The problem is I don't think Apple is gonna spend half a trillion dollars. And if they do, they're gonna, they're gonna do it with all automation.
Eric Bolling
Well, they said. But they said it's 20,000 jobs. It's not 200,000 jobs for $500 billion.
Steve Gruber
20 jobs, like 20 guys opening.
Eric Bolling
Are you like, Are you getting, like, Lutnick, you're gonna bring your robots back? You're gonna bring your. You're gonna bring your robots back.
Steve Gruber
I'm like, talk to me about Lutnick.
Eric Bolling
Oh, hang on. Tell me about Lutnick. He's now taking. He says he's cutting all the deals on the comments.
Steve Gruber
Feels great. Listen, again, don't get me wrong, I'm not anti Trump. I don't want this.
Eric Bolling
I know you're not Trump.
Steve Gruber
You're a buddy of his, and it will work if everyone lowers their tariffs unilaterally.
Eric Bolling
Brian, who was on the plane, who was on the plane today? Who came out with the President? Who. What was the traveling group?
Brian Glenn
That's a great. That's a great question. I know that. Off of, off of Marine One, I saw Stephen Miller, Mike Waltz, even though I did not see Mike Waltz get on the plane, but he definitely met the President at Joint Base Andrews, Margo Martin, of course, a lot of the Trump staffers, but it was hard to see who actually got on the plane, because once he got on, we were kind of ushered to get on the back of the plane. So we didn't really get to capture everyone getting on, but I did see Stephen Miller was on the plane. I've gotten reports, and I'll try to confirm that in the break of some other individuals that were on there, but I Just didn't know for sure.
Eric Bolling
And I don't want to.
Steve Gruber
Honestly. Brian, if you've never done this, folks, I mean, this is amazing. Steve's done it a bunch of times because he was with Trump 1.0. But you get on Air Force, when you come off Air Force One and you're headed to a venue, it is amazing. These SUVs fly at like 100 miles an hour. There's, there's state police that are closing all the roads. It is just unreal. You get chills being in part. They just, you're so close to the power. It's just fascinating how fast you can get from one, one place to the.
Eric Bolling
Next when you clear the freeways. It's absolutely incredible. Hey, put people on Air Force One. We talk about this, talk about where the media sits, the front cabin, how it's tough to see people. This is why President Trump, being President Trump always comes back for a press avail, always pokes his head back there. Maybe not on an hour flight, but walk people through. We actually said, Brian.
Brian Glenn
Okay, well, we entered through the tail end of the plane, the back of the plane. We enter through there, we go up another small set of stairs and that's where the press gallery is in the back. I believe there's about 13 seats back there, two television screens. And if you think of first class seats, each side has two kind of oversized first class seats. There's even a snack bar, Steve, that's my favorite part about the whole thing. A snack bar in the back of the plane. And there's a restroom room back there as well. When we enter the plane, sitting in our assigned seat, there's a little card. I wish I had it on me. I'd show it to you. It's got my name, it says Air Force One. It's laid in the seat along with a bag that has the kind of a sack lunch, if you will, a high quality sack lunch there for the shorter trip. Now, if you go on a flight that's a little longer, very much like commercial flights, they will serve you kind of a hot meal, if you will. They'll take a drink order and they'll bring out a, a mill full service on that. But it's, it's kind of a limited area. But there is a gallery just in front of us. That's where Secret Services it sits. And that's where the President would walk out to address the media there. Back in that press area.
Eric Bolling
The audience got to understand too that the, whether it's a sack lunch or the lunch or the seat, all of it is paid for by the individual media companies. Is not, it's not, it's not cheap. That's what we really appreciate. Real America's Voice. Not only has Brian, because your great efforts and Natalie's and the entire team production team done such a great job with now the, the pool camera so often, but we're actually invited on Air Force.
Steve Gruber
It's a big expense too.
Eric Bolling
It's a big expense. It's huge expense.
Steve Gruber
This is an honor to be included in it.
Eric Bolling
But this is why Rob Sig asked, asked Brian if you start making some PBJs and take them on so he didn't have to pay for the extra dinner that there. It's expensive. I mean by the way, for the White House staff. By the way stands out. When you're on the White House staff, there's no wifi. Air Force One, it's charged. Yeah, it's char. You pay. There's nothing. If you're White House staff, you eat on Air Force One just like you eat in the commissary, the mess hall or the mess at the White House. It's charged your personal account. There's nothing. The government doesn't pick up anything. Brian, hang on right there. Steve Gruber, hang on. John Solomon's going to try to join us. I got Eric Bolling here. That sounds like murders Road 27, Yankees. Right. We're going to take a short commercial break here. We're getting towards. We're going to come back for the D block. President Trump if he's on time and Brian Glenn says he's pretty close to being on time. I think this is going to kick off at 6 o'clock. The President is going to give a speech. I imagine that this is going to be a stem winder. Would you, would you, would you think that Eric Bowling on his hundredth day.
Steve Gruber
I think he's going to. Whatever the plan is, it'll be Trumpian. It's going to be awesome. It's going to be entertaining as all hell. I mean he's gonna, he's gonna be funny. He's gonna be excited. I mean he's, it's a big, he's gonna enjoy the moment.
Eric Bolling
Short commercial right back on Real America's Voice in a moment.

Donald Trump
Historic executive order to ban men from competing in women's sports. Illegal border crossings, the lowest ever recorded ever, and a freeze on all foreign aid. You're either gonna make a deal or we're out. I declared a national energy emergency. Drill, baby, drill. I withdrew from the unfair Paris climate accord. We ordered all federal workers to return to the office. Ending the flagrant waste of taxpayer dollars. We mended the tyranny of so called diversity, equity and inclusion. And our country will be woke no longer. Other countries have used tariff against us for decades and now it's our turn to start using them against those other countries.
Steve Bannon
We support Donald Trump's policies on tariffs 100%.
Donald Trump
This will be indeed the golden age of Americans coming back. It will be like nothing that has ever been seen before. Thank you, God bless you and God bless America.
Steve Bannon
Trump. The first hundred days starts now.

Tuesday 29 April. Yerver Lord 2025 the new golden age. We are here in the Imperial Capital. We've got John Solomon with us over our main studio downtown and Steve Gruber's at Macomb County. We're gonna go to Steve in a moment. President Trump's 100 days wall to wall coverage. Here's the logistics. The President just left Selfridge National Guard Air Force Base and what he's doing is heading to the event itself. Now when he gets there, should be about 5, 30 roughly. The president always takes, I don't know, 10, 15, 20 minutes and he meet and greets behind stage veterans, first responders, people from the community. There's a couple of donors too, but normally just normal folks. He wants to spend some time before he goes out and gives a speech. It's really one of the most heartwarming things I've ever seen. Every time we do it, we always. Trump wants to carve time out. He's a people person, give us some of your reviews.
Steve Gruber
It's not fake, too, you know, politicians know, you know, the kiss the baby.
Eric Bolling
It's the real deal.
Steve Gruber
No, Trump does because he, he knows.
Eric Bolling
He's from the hospitality industry in the media.
Steve Gruber
I mean, he's, he's, he feels that, too.
Eric Bolling
How are your, how are your reviews this afternoon? Bowling.
Steve Gruber
Steve Collins, 6, says tell Bolling to get on the Trump train and support him 100% or get the hell off. Rav, do you know how long.
Eric Bolling
Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. You're people should know. Eric's got a long personal history with President Trump. You've known Trump 30 years from the 90s.
Steve Gruber
Yeah, no, I, I knew Trump before Celebrity Apprentice. Before Apprentice, I've known him. I lived in and worked in New York. I was in the same circles. I was at the surf club in late 80s, okay?
Eric Bolling
No stories there.
Steve Gruber
And Donald Trump walks in. He's single at the time, walks in with a group of, you know, bodyguards and wants to dance with my dad. I've known Donald Trump since, since the late 80s.
Eric Bolling
Okay?
Steve Gruber
Donald Trump used to call me at home, Stephen, when he was president the first time.
Eric Bolling
Oh, I remember that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Steve Gruber
He was two weeks in the off in the presidency in 2016. You were there. He calls me to the oval. I fly down from New York and he says, come on, and we'll talk to you about. This infrastructure proposal was big. CNN had a copy of it. It got leaked. CNN had it. He says, what do you think? Here's my point. I love Donald Trump. I want him to be president forever. I want America to thrive under Donald Trump. I'm also a guy who has to say what I believe. So Trump says, what do you think of this? And I'd read it on the way down.
Eric Bolling
And I said in the Libertarian kicks in, but go ahead.
Steve Gruber
I read it and it was a lot of spending for roads and bridges. I said, Mr. Mr. President, why don't you do this? Take a lot of that spending, fix the roads and bridges, whatever, but take a lot of spending, build hospitals and build schools and put Trump on the side of the hospital in the school, and use local contractors. What happens? Every voter that drives by a hospital or school says, holy gosh, I love Trump.
Eric Bolling
Bowling's like an old ward politician. Old, old Irish ward politician. I just want to go back in time, though, for a second before we go to Michigan. The surf club in the 80s.
Steve Gruber
Yeah.
Eric Bolling
Okay. Players. No, I don't remember that. I just. Because I was at Goldman Sachs as A grundoon. I was working 18 hours a day.
Steve Gruber
You Goldman guys were just owned the surf club. That was the traders.
Eric Bolling
That was the traders, not the investment bankers. I was working 18 hours a day.
Steve Gruber
The investment bankers couldn't stand the.
Eric Bolling
You guys are booming at the surf club and we're working.
Steve Gruber
We were making money, we were spending. You guys were hoarding it. Going to surf club stuff later, the surf club.
Eric Bolling
And he walked in and danced with the date right away.
Steve Gruber
Yeah. He sent action, sent one of his bodyguards over and said, Mr. Trump would like to dance.
Eric Bolling
Of course, naturally he drank your milkshake is what you're telling your milkshake.
Steve Gruber
He ate my lunch.
Eric Bolling
So. Hold it. I got John something. Let me go back to Gruber. Gruber, we're heading in from Selfridge. I want people to fully understand Today, on the 100th day, how President Trump thinks. Tell us about the National Guard base, the struggle to keep it open. What happened today? Why was this important for Michiganders and for our national defense that the Secretary of Defense would come out there, sir.
Steve Gruber
Now his mic's up.
Eric Bolling
Okay, can we get the mic up, guys? All right, well, okay, Tech issue. We'll straighten it out in a second. It's. You know all those locations when you have the risers.
Steve Gruber
Thank you, ajf.
Brian Glenn
Thank you, Eric.
Steve Gruber
You deserve to have your own opinion. Thank you.
Eric Bolling
There we go. You see, that's not the rumble chat. That's the rumble. I thought you waved off the rumble chat.
Steve Gruber
You told me man up and go back on rumble. So I did. I listen, I. Where's the T shirt? If you haven't seen this, I mean this. I don't just make T shirts and not mean.
Eric Bolling
I mean, this is true story, spirit animal. We're going to start selling our merch site. We'll give you a cut. We'll give you a taste. We got Gruber. Okay, Steve Gruber. The president states, and this is. He's always thinking downrange. Why does he go to a National Guard air base today? What is about these fighters? What about the struggle to keep that open? What does it mean for the community? And what does it mean for our national security, sir?
Steve Bannon
I mean, what's more red, white and blue than an Air Force base in your neighborhood? What builds pride more than having brand new F15s delivered? And you see them come screaming over. I mean, if you're at a football game or somewhere else, nothing makes a chill run up your spine like F15. There's just something about that raw American power. It's Pride. Steve Bannon it's pride in America. It's God bless America. America, it's America's back. America is the strongest, biggest, meanest dog on the block. That's what it is. It instills pride. Plus there's a lot of money that comes with that. Look, Selfridge was on the block to be chopped a couple of times. It's good for Michigan to see Selfridge survive. We've had a couple of different Air Force bases closed here in the last 15 years. We need to hang on to one. And it's nice to have him show up with Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense and say, listen, we're planting our flag, Michigan right here for you. And it feels good. I'm telling you, it builds morale. It feels good when Michigan's fighting to come back and become the arsenal of democracy. It's nice to see that arsenal on occasion. Speaking of arsenals, by the way. All right folks, quick heads up. For tonight's first 100 days rally, free TrumpKnife.com is giving away a limited run of 250. America is back.

Eric Bolling
Gruber, tell us about, about when the President gets here. Tell us about the event space. Tell us about Macomb County. Tell us about the type of crowd that's going to be there tonight. Walk us through where we're going to be. Why did President Trump pick it? Why is it important?
Steve Bannon
Macomb county is the pivotal swing county in Michigan. How Macomb county goes, goes the state. This is where Reagan Democrats came out in 1980 and and sent Jimmy Carter to the unemployment, unemployment line. Macomb county is a mix of, of educators and auto manufacturers and blue collar people and white collar people. It is a mix and it has gone both ways. Macomb county went for Barack Obama. Macomb county has gone for Donald Trump now a couple of times. It is the key swing state. And as we've talked about and I've said before, Steve, he's told me this. Donald Trump believes Michigan is ground zero zero in the effort to get him elected not once, but twice, maybe three times. We can argue about that another day. But it's also the key to his midterm success. He really believes that. Look, you're going to have people running for governor in the state. It's an open seat. Gretchen Whitmer, who was there today and Donald Trump again, put her on the spot, but put her in front of the microphone. She's leaving. Gary Peters, the, the left wing senator from the state, surprised everybody a few weeks ago at the age of 66, says he will not be seeking another term. It is an open Senate seat for the second time. We just had an open Senate seat. Mike Rogers came up short by 3/10 of 1%. He's entered this race again, but he's going to have company this time around. You've got a pretty full field on the Republican side running for governor here. And so Macomb county is critical for Donald Trump not having a two year term effectively, but having a four year term effectively, maybe more as we've talked about. But in order to have an effective full four years, he needs the House. He needs to hang on to seats in Michigan, in the House, he needs to get that Senate seat. I mean, you pick up a Senate seat in Michigan or New Hampshire or both, because some of these Senate seats are open. You add a couple of seats in the House, you pad your lead. That what Donald Trump's looking at here. That's why McCoven county is so important. It is a, it is a bellwether county. It's one of the top, most indicative counties in the entire country. It's the one county in Michigan that will tell you how your election is going to go. And that's why he's here, is just.
Eric Bolling
Hang on, I'm going to take a short commercial break. Real quick. Is our own tutor Dixon, is she, is she definitely, is she going to be in this governor's race?
Steve Bannon
You know, I can't decide and I don't know that she has decided. Look, I'm a Tudor fan. I think that she would be a great senator. I think that she would make a good governor here. I think that she would add something to the conservative agenda. Of course she's endorsed by Donald Trump when she ran for governor previously. Four years ago or two years ago. I guess it'll be two years until Gretchen's out. But yeah, I don't know if Tudors in or not. Steve, I'll tell you, I talked, talked to her some. She, I don't think she's honestly made a decision and that's, I think that's the honest truth. I don't think she's made a decision here. I think she's, I think it's weighing on her as to what to do.
Steve Gruber
Hey, hey, Groovity. Eric Nesbit, he was, he was with Trump. He's traveling with Trump a little bit I believe in the, you know, when Air Force One landed to bring, bring him to, to that the podium right there. Eric Nesbit says he wants to run for governor as a Republican. So will Tudor Dixon want to run? Even if Nesbitt, if he's got Trump's endorsement, there's no one else.
Eric Bolling
I tell you what, hang on for a second. Does he have the endorsement? We're going to take a short commercial break. We're going to be back. We got Gruber in Michigan bowling here in the war room. John Solomon's going to join us. We're rocking and rolling in the 100 day commemoration. We return Real American Voice in the war room. See you in a minute. Okay. Where are we? The president is heading towards Macomb County. I think he's gonna get there around 5:30 by the motorcade. Our own Brian Glenn is with him. When Brian Ken. And you can't do it all the time. He gives us the rolling video from and we'll put it up in a box so that you can see it or maybe we'll go full screen. So Brian Glenn's with him. Steve Gruber's actually at the event center. I got bowling here. John Solomon is working on some investigative reporting. He's gonna be with us in a little while. We'll go to him. Are your reviews getting any better? Yeah, we've cleaned your. We had to clean up aisle three.
Steve Gruber
We did that in bowling. Mike Davis. Love rev. Love war room. We'll be nice to you now, Eric, you deserve your own opinion.
Eric Bolling
Deserve your own opinion. Where did that come from?
Steve Gruber
Can you imagine? Can you imagine?
Eric Bolling
I can't imagine that. So Gruber, here's a question I got for you. You've done a great job of laying out the historic importance of Macomb county, historically, for the country, it's always been a major bellwether. It's the home of Reagan Democrats is where President Reagan in 1980 shocked the world in a blowout of Jimmy Carter. And it was all anchored in Democrats, actually, in the blue wall of places like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, other places voting for him. But tell me, what's your assessment of what Macomb county thinks of the first hundred days of President Trump? Sir.
Steve Bannon
I think they're thrilled. I mean, you hear these nonsense stories on the left leaning media, Chicken Noodle News or MSNBC or whomever else talking about this buyer's remorse. That's all garbage. I see these polls saying, you know, Donald Trump's Support is only 41%. Those are also the same people that said, look, Kamala Harris is going to win. I talked to dozens of people coming in here today and the place is packed, as you can see. The place is filled up. They're just about a capacity. The President's a few minutes out. Every person to a man to a woman. There is not one person, person I've met, and this is true on my radio program, which is on a couple of dozen stations around Michigan every day. In addition to a real America's Voice. There is not any buyer's remorse. Are people a little bit nervous about their 401 case? They were for a bit, but that's come back. What's the market down about 6, 7%. Everybody's looking at that, going, look, we're willing to give the guy a chance to govern, to play his hand. Everybody trusts him. Look, when you look, look at what happened in Canada. Again, I put it out there, Was that an accident? Was that a mistake by Donald Trump or did he play it hoping that he can bust Alberta loose? That's actually my theory. I wonder if that was the play to see if he can bust Alberta loose. Because they are so angry to begin with. But here in Macomb county, they're thrilled with this president. They're thrilled. Number one, number one topic, the number one issue continues to be the border. And when you hear that there are 184,000 illegals released into the country last year and nine, count them, nine so far this year, a reduction of 99.99%. The people here love that. They love the fact that the border is closed and we don't have the problem with illegal aliens the way other states do, but we have our own representation here and problems. I mean, you've got these gangs that come here from Chile and Brazil that were terrorizing homes in Oakland county right next door to where I am right now. These sophisticated gangs will go to these fancy homes, disable the security systems, and then raid the place and then get on their planes and fly home. So this has been going on. In fact, the sheriff, Mike Bouchard, was here from Oakland County. He was on the stage here just about 20 minutes ago. So real crime goes away. Fentanyl, not here the way it was just, you know, a hundred days ago. People here in Macomb county, they love the border being secured. They love the idea that Trump is trying to get this auto industry jump started and defend the working men and women of this country. The UAW members. Brian Panabaker, you've seen him many times up here. He's the guy who's kind of burly that Trump first called on stage. Ended up being on stage with him a dozen different times. He was up here. UAW members for Trump. Donald Trump has done something that has not been done previously in my lifetime, really, and that is a cross section, a populist movement that brings people from all corners of this country and all corners of this county, they love what Donald Trump's done for the first hundred days. They look forward to where he goes for the next hundred days. The one thing that really has him, well, frankly pissed off are all these activist judges and districts around this country trying to issue nationwide injunctions against what Donald Trump is doing. Whether it's DEI or deporting people or whatever it may be, that's the one thing that they're mad about. They're not mad at Donald Trump, they're mad at House Republicans for not doing something about it thus far. That's the only thing that they express concern about other than that these people are thrilled, Steve. They are thrilled, Steve.
Eric Bolling
We hear all day long on the mainstream media about the deportations in due process. Are the, are the working class and middle class folks in Macomb county, are they worried about due process for criminals and due process for illegal alien invaders? Are that they want him to fulfill his sworn oath as commander in chief, sir.
Steve Bannon
Well, I think they'd like a lot of KC130 transport planes coming right up and out of Selfridge and sending those folks to where they belong, which is wherever they came from. If you are in this country illegally, right. If you are in this country illegally and you get caught and you're here illegally, what other due process is in involved? If you broke the law, you came in here, you're a got away, you lied you did whatever you did to get in here, and now you're here illegally. Go home. That's the message these people have. So the due process, what more do you need if you're here illegally? That's what people hear. They. No, they support him. They support sending the illegals home and almost to a man and woman, the same thing. They're welcoming to these folks. You want to come here for from Venezuela or El Salvador or Mexico or Africa or wherever, that's fine. Fill out the paperwork. Get a background check. Make sure that your paperwork lines up. Tell us what you're going to do. Where are you going to go? Get a job. You know, it used to be in America, you couldn't just come here unless you had a plan to support yourself because they didn't want the extra miles to be. That's the way it worked at Ellis Island. Should still work that way. Now, the fact of the matter matter is we don't have a problem with immigration laws. We have a problem with enforcing them. People here believe that. I believe that. And I think that these people, like I said, they are thrilled. Close the border, seal it up. Make them come in in a single line, orderly fashion.
Eric Bolling
Gruber, hang on. So we got a beautiful shot. Let's go back to that shot. I knew as soon as I said it, they're going to. Let's go back to the shot and we'll play director. Now let's go back to that big, beautiful shot right there. That's, that's the arena. Gruber, it sounds almost like a celebration. I mean, the energy, the excitement, really, the enthusiasm and, and the joy put us in the room.
Steve Bannon
It feels that way. The music is playing. I, I, you know, I can guarantee one thing you're going to see, you're going to hear the Village People, you're going to see Donald Trump dance tonight. There's my one prediction for the evening. I don't know exactly what he's going to say, but I'm going to pretend. Predicted he will heal the Village People and he will dance with these people. It is a celebration. And in fact, our own Brian Glenn just rolled up to me. So I know that Air Force One landed, they went to Selfridge, they made the motorcade journey over here. They're here. So I'm gonna have to hand off to Brian. Steve and I have to go to the main deck over that way. Brian will be here with you. We're gonna, we're gonna do a little player to be named later. Move. All right.
Eric Bolling
I love it. I Love it. Brian Glens Mateo. It's the shot right there, folks. Can I have the music? Let's have the music. Let's bring it up, guys. Bring. Bring the music up. Your buddy has. You're playing. This is. Let's bring the music up. This is. He's playing. You're playing the. You're playing the. You're playing the hits list that he plays every night at Mar a Lago. Do we have Brian Glenn? Is he up? Okay, fantastic. Okay, got it, got it, got it. Right there is a celebration. Look, higher American. That's Buy American. Higher American sign. It's a celebration.
Steve Gruber
Just imagine Joe Biden. If Joe Biden, you know, 100 days into his presidency showed up anywhere, especially in a state that wasn't typically a blue state for him, he wanted, but it wasn't typically blue, they would. You never get a crowd like this. You wouldn't get the enthusiasm. Enthusiasm, the excitement. Trump taps into that emotion. That's largely why he's president.
Eric Bolling
Did your date at the Surf Club dance with.
Steve Gruber
Yes, I'll never forget.
Eric Bolling
Janet Model, tall girl, didn't even think twice. Hey, Eric, Thanks.
Steve Gruber
It's amazing.
Eric Bolling
I haven't heard the Surf club mentioned in 20 or 30 years. It was not. It was the hot spot. Not for me, okay? I'm slaving away 18, 20 years. So just like here, I'm like a monk. I live like a monk.
Brian Glenn
As.
Steve Gruber
Like you slaved away for a few years and then you've made so much money, you got.
Eric Bolling
Became part of Carney. Mark Carney's part of the problem. He's a Goldman guy.
Steve Gruber
Oh, God, you know, guy. He's almost a golden guy.
Eric Bolling
So tell me about. Tell me about Nesbitt. Is Nesbitt Hathi.
Steve Gruber
So he again, is. He had the endorsement that he traveled with the president. I would assume that is. It's at least a tacit endorsement.
Eric Bolling
I don't know. A lot of guys travel. The president, he has he endorsed.
Steve Gruber
I'm not saying he probably would reserve the.
Steve Bannon
The.
Eric Bolling
Listen, to fly out there is a big deal to be on the plane in Michigan to come out there.
Steve Gruber
Saquon Barkley flew on Air Air Force One to the White House yesterday. That's pretty impressive.
Eric Bolling
Of course, he's. I mean, look, Trump, look at the Philadelphia Eagles thing. He had the champions there. I mean, it was. It was the.
Steve Gruber
Trump likes. Who. Who would have found. Trump likes the Tush Push.
Eric Bolling
I don't. I cannot stand that rule.
Steve Gruber
I love that rule.
Eric Bolling
You love that rule.
John Solomon
Great rule.
Steve Gruber
Don't Ever.
Eric Bolling
It's a terrible rule.
Steve Gruber
It's a great rule.
Eric Bolling
What are you playing? Rugby. You're playing American football?
Brian Glenn
Why?
Eric Bolling
Do you like the tush places?
Steve Gruber
Put your big guys up. Get some big.
Eric Bolling
I don't like it. No.
Steve Gruber
But.
Eric Bolling
Do it. But. No. But that would. Line him up and let's go. Don't have to think pushing him back. Are we playing rugby?
Steve Gruber
You're still moving forward.
Eric Bolling
You like the Austrian School of Economics and you like rugby.
Steve Gruber
Listen. You're smarter than I am. No school of Economics or something like that. Didn't you?
Eric Bolling
I went to the West Point of capitalism. The Harvard Business School.
Steve Gruber
You did?
Eric Bolling
Of course.
Steve Gruber
No one. You don't get this.
Eric Bolling
Hold it. The railhead of globalization. Globalism. Harvard. You're a Harvard. It took me a long time. It took me a long time to work through that.
Steve Gruber
Imagine. Can you imagine having. Was it 55 billion dollar endowment? Great. Fine. But then not being taxed on the money you make. I mean you put in 5% interest bearing.
Eric Bolling
I think the business school alone has got 8 or 10 billion dollars of that.
Steve Gruber
But you want a tariff. I like put a tariff on Harvard. How's that? No, they're stupid.
Eric Bolling
I don't think.
Steve Gruber
Investments first. We get to go first of all.
Eric Bolling
The foreign students got to go number two. I don't think he's been tough enough. I think President Trump's got a. I think Harvey gets six or seven billion a year. Got to cut it all off. And don't blame the Jewish students. It's not about anti Semitism. It's much deeper than that. It's about anti American. Neo Marxists hate America. And they got to get rid of all those professors and all the administrators. Once they've done that, start bleeding the cash back in there. Next stop is Ann Arbor. I'll talk to Gruber about that. Short commercial break. We return. I think John Solomon's going to be with us. Gruber Bowling Bannon here in the war room on Real America's Voice on the 100th day.
Steve Gruber
Maybe Glenn.

Hey War Room. Hope you're all doing well. My name is Trevor Comstock, I'm one of the co creators of Sacred Human and I wanted to share just a little bit more about our brand. For those who may not know of us yet, but about six months ago we we decided to launch Sacred Human with really the simple mission being to provide American made natural supplements without all the artificial nonsense. So unfortunately, as many of you know, a lot of these big corporate supplements will include things like preservatives, artificial ingredients and other additives that really aren't benefiting your health. So that's why we created Sacred Human, really trying to fill this gap of quality supplements. And of course the beef liver being our flagship product. For those who don't know, beef liver is loaded with highly bioavailable ingredients such as vitamin A, B12, zinc, CoQ10, etc. And because it is 100% grass fed and natural, your body is able to absorb these nutrients far better than taking any other synthetic multivitamin or any other synthetic vitamin in general. So we have some other amazing products, but if you'd like to check us out, you can go to sacredhumanhealth.com and cheers to your health.
