ALREADY PAID.
OUR NEXT GUEST, IS REPUBLICAN
RUNNING FOR THE MARYLAND CON
DEPRESSION SIGNAL SEAT LONG HELD
BY THE LATE DEMOCRAT ELIJAH
CUMMINS AND KIMBERLY KLACIK AND
SLAMMING CITIES RUN BY
DEMOCRATS.
>> YOU CAN’T BUY BLACK LIVES
PEOPLE THAT RUN BALTIMORE DON’T.
I CAN PROVE IT.
WALK WITH ME THEY DON’T WANT YOU
TO SEE THIS.
JON: WELL PRESIDENT TRUMP TAKING
NOTICE TWEETING, KIMBERLY KLACIK
IS REALLY WORKING HARD TO HELP
THE PEOPLE OF BALTIMORE.
SHE IS RUNNING FOR CONGRESS AS
REPUBLICAN AND IF SHE WINS
INSPIRATION TO ALL SHE’S STRONG
ON INTERCITY REBUILDING, HEALTH
CARE, OUR MILITARY, AND VETS.
SHE HAS MY COMPLETE AND TOTAL
ENDORSEMENT.
JOINING ME NOW REPUBLICAN
CANDIDATE FOR MARYLAND 7TH
DISTRICT.
KIMBERLY KLACIK THE PRESIDENT
DIDN’T MENTION IT BUT IF YOU
WERE TO WIN THIS SEAT YOU WOULD
BE FIRST REPUBLICAN EVER TO --
EVER TO REPRESENT THE 7TH
DISTRICT, WOULD YOU NOT?
WHAT ARE YOUR CHANCES?
>> YEAH.
ABSOLUTELY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
HAVING ME, JON.
BUT YEAH I WOULD BE FIRST
REPUBLICAN AND THE FIRST WOMAN
ALSO.
YOU KNOW, I THINK OUR CHANCES
ARE GETTING BETTER EVERY SINGLE
DAY HONESTLY.
WE HAVE A TEAM OUT THERE
CANVASSING FIVE DAYS WEEK.
WE’VE GOT PEOPLE REGISTERING
VOTERS TWO DAYS WEEK AND WE’RE
SEEING A LOT OF MOMENTUM THESE
PAST I WOULD SAY FEW WEEKS
ESPECIALLY AFTER THE PRESIDENT
ENDORSEMENT.
THERE’S A LOT OF PEOPLE NOW
TALKING ABOUT OUR RACE, AND
TALKING ABOUT HOW WE WANT TO
JUST BRING MORE CAREER
OPPORTUNITIES, AND A BETTER
EDUCATION SYSTEM TO BALTIMORE
AREA AND THAT’S WHAT RESIDENTS
REALLY WANT RIGHT NOW.
JON: BUT YOU’RE GOING TO BE
RUNNING WITH THAT BIG R NEXT TO
YOUR NAME ON BALLOT, ISN’T THAT
A HANDICAP IN A PLACE LIKE
BALTIMORE?
>> IT IS.
IT DEFINITELY IS.
BUT YOU KNOW, THAT’S WHY IN MY
CAMPAIGN AD WE WANTED TO
REITERATE THE FACT THAT
DEMOCRATS HAVE ONE BALTIMORE
AREA FOR OVER 50 YEARS NOW SO
THESE ARE RESULTS THAT YOU GET
WHEN YOU CONTINUE TO VOTE DOWN
BALLOT FOR A DEMOCRAT.
NOT JUST THE FACT THAT WE’VE GOT
CRUMBLING INFRASTRUCTURE AND
THEY HAVEN’T PLACED ANY OF THE
FEDERAL FUNDS WHERE THEY WERE
SUPPOSED TO BE IMPLEMENTED BUT
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTANDER THAT T
THEY ARE SOFT ON CRIME AND
VIOLENCE.
WE’VE HAD FIVE YEARS IN A ROW
OVER 00 HOMICIDES EACH YEAR.
AND THIS IS SENSE THE RIOTS THAT
WE HAVE IN 2015.
SO THEY THINKS ARE GETTING
WORSE, THEY’RE NOT GETTING ANY
BETTER AND I THINK PEOPLE ARE
STARTING TO SEE THAT AND THEY’RE
THINKING, YOU KNOW, WHAT, MAYBE
WE SHOULD MAKE A CHANGE.
YOU KNOW I ALSO TELL PEOPLE WHEN
YOU HAVE --
ONE PARTY RULE MILD RULE THEY
CALL IT IN A CITY FOR SO LONG,
THERE’S GOING TO BE CORRUPTION.
AND JUST LAST YEAR WE HAD OUR
MAYOR INDICTED FOR PAY TO PLAY.
SO I THINK PEOPLE ARE STARTING
TO UNDERSTAND WHAT VOTING FOR
THE DEMOCRAT PARTY EVERY YEAR
LOOKS LIKE.
JON: YOU ARE RUNNING AGAINST ONE
LENGTED IN SPECIAL ELECTION TO
FILL ELIJAH CUMMINGS SEAT AFTER
HE DIED HE --
PUT OUT THERE DO YOU THINK YOU
CAN TURN NUMBERS AROUND THIS
TIME?
>> YOU’RE SO BRUTALLY HONEST MY
GOODNESS YES HE DID.
HE DID BUT IN A SPECIAL ELECTION
I WAS GOING UP AGAINST SUCH A
HUGE NAME RIGHT HE USED TO BE
THE PRESIDENT AS NAACP AND THEN
THAT TIME REMEMBER WE WERE ON
THE CORONAVIRUS LOCKDOWN.
SO WE WEREN’T ABLE TO GO DOOR TO
DOOR TALK TO ANYBODY ABOUT WHAT
WE CAN BRING TO THE AREA AND SO
IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW THAT OUR
TEAM IS OUT THERE 7 DAYS WEEK.
BECAUSE NOW WE CAN TALK TO
PEOPLE, AND HELP THEM UNDERSTAND
WHAT A DIFFERENCE WE CAN MAKE IN
THE AREA.
ESPECIALLY ALONGSIDE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION.
YOU KNOW I TELL PEOPLE YOU HAVE
TO LOOK AT THE FACTS HERE THE
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION SINCE THE
LOCKDOWN WE LOST SO MANY JOBES
IN THE PAST FOUR MONTHS.
WE’VE REGAINED 10.6 MILLION
THAT’S HALF WHAT HAVE WE LOST
AND THAT’S WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP
DOES HE’S GOOD AT BRINGING IN
CAREERS AND GOOD AT MAKING SURE
THE ECONOMY IS GREAT AND ROARING
THAT’S WHY I TALKED IT IN THE
RNC CONVENTION SPEECH AND PEOPLE
REALLY WANT CAREERS.
YOU KNOW PEOPLE WANT TO WORK.
IT JUST HAS THOSE OPPORTUNITIES
HAVE TO BE THERE.
JON: ONE OF MY SONS WENT TO
SCHOOL IN BALTIMORE.
I USED TO DRIVE THROUGH THAT
CITY A LOT.
AND I JUST COULDN’T BELIEVE HOW
RUNDOWN IT IS IN PLACES.
YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN TURN
THAT AROUND?
>> I REALLY DO.
I REALLY DO.
I THINK THERE’S --
I KNOW SOME PEOPLE SAY IT IS
COMPLICATED BUT IF YOU TAKE
NECESSARY STEPS YOU HAVE TO LOOK
AT IT GOING AGAINST FROM THERE
1997 TO 1996 AND WHEN TESTIFIES
THERE HE SIGNED ON TO 1994 CRIME
BILL SEPARATING A LOT OF BLACK
MEN FROM FAMILIES SO FIRST AND
FOREMOST TALK ABOUT FAMILY
STRUCTURE AND SCHOOL AND
EDUCATION.
THIRD CAREER OPPORTUNITIES, ONCE
GET THE TOP THREE THINGS DONE
YOU’LL SEE BALTIMORE TURN AROUND
IN NEXT TWO OR THREE YEARS.
JON: WE’LL BE WATCHING.
IT IS GOING TO BE AN INTERESTING
RACE, AND THE NATION IS FOCUSING
MORE AND MORE ON IT.
BALTIMORE IS 7TH CONGRESSIONAL
DISTRICT MARYLAND 7TH KIMBERLY
