The Michael Barry Show.

We played part of this on Wednesday, so you may recognize a little bit of it.

But we decided for this week's bonus podcast for your Saturday listening, since it was too long to play on the regular show.

This is President Trump's victory speech from earlier this week.

And it hit a lot of the right notes for me

at the right time. And so if you saw it already, maybe give it another listen. And if you didn't,

I think it would be good to give this a listen. You know, elections like births and graduations and

weddings and deaths, funerals, there are a marking point, a pivot point. They're a point in time.

They give us an opportunity to kind of start anew, to change direction. And I really think Trump understands that concept. I think he's sad

not to be running for president again. I do. I think he recognizes that he will serve and then leave.

And I think he's grown to enjoy it. He's darn good at it. I mean, who can forget the garbage

truck and the McDonald's, uh, French fries? I mean, it's just, he's good. He's really, really good.

Um, and I think he's going to enjoy being a lame duck president in the sense that he's going to do

what he wants to do, and he's going to be free to do the right thing.

And very infrequently is it that a person fuels that free?

They could be, very infrequently do they?

And the people around them think about retaining power

instead of fixing problems.

And I think Trump is going in with the mindset of fixing problems.

Thank you very much.

Wow.
