| 0:00.0 | Well, here's the big question for the day. Have we passed the Trump test? |
| 0:05.8 | It's time for the line of fire with your host, activist, author, international speaker, and theologian, Dr. Michael Brown, your voice of moral, cultural, and spiritual revolution. |
| 0:17.8 | Michael Brown is the director of the Coalition of Conscience and President of Fire School of Ministry. |

| 0:33.2 | Well, what is the Trump test? How can we say if we've passed the Trump test, if we haven't defined the Trump test, and |
