Summary

This week, Trey Gowdy explains what is on his mind as the country waits for election results. Trey compares the wait for election results to a prosecutor’s wait for the verdict of a jury trial, the importance of reflecting how you can do better before you get the results, and what the future of small limited government is. Later, Trey explains the best time for Republicans to reflect and plan for the next election cycle is before they know whether they have won or lost.
