Thanks for listening to the Town Hall Review with Hugh Hewitt podcast, bringing to you the best voices on the stories and issues that matter.

Here's another piece I'll trust you enjoy.

We bring in chairman of the GOP, who I hope had a very Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

It looks like it's mostly been all smiles and positivity and fun for Chairman Watley.

I don't know that that's the case.

Maybe work never stops. I know he's had to go through recounts and all kinds of fights and battles well after we were sort of enjoying

our celebratory cigars. Mr. Chairman, happy New Year. Welcome back. How are you, sir?

It's great to be on with you, Chris, and it has been a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year so far.

But as I said, you did have to kind of hang around and wait things out a little bit,

for instance, in Pennsylvania with the Dave McCormick race.

I think there were a couple of others in California.

So when it's all said and done, now that it's all shaken out, that was the last time we talked,

was just as we were wrapping up and certifying Dave McCormick as the next senator from Pennsylvania.

Your 30,000-foot view of everything now that it's all over and we're certifying it all today.

Yeah, look, I think it's a great day for America, and I think that the 20th is going to be a great day for the world.

Donald Trump campaigned on a very simple platform of rebuilding our southern border,

restoring our economy, making sure that our communities are safe, and making sure that America

is going to be strong enough to protect our interests and allies around the world.

And I think everybody in the country, everybody around the world is very ready for America to

resume its leadership of the world.

And we're seeing already changes around the world to acknowledge the fact that America is

going to be back on January 20th.
