00:00Speaking of Sherrod Brown, one of his top priorities is the Rail Safety Act.
00:04Do you really think that J.D. Vance, as the vice presidential nominee, can't get ten Republican votes?
00:09Well, you know, I asked J.D. Vance about four times, this is before he was vice president,
00:13to give me ten names of Republicans, and we need a few more than ten if we have an absence here or there,
00:18but to give me ten names of Republicans who would vote for the bill. He couldn't.
00:23Now he's vice president nominee. Now he's the vice president nominee.
00:28I have a feeling the American people are not going to be very confident in him as vice president,
00:33and if God forbid, you know, well, I would say I have a feeling that if Trump could no longer serve,
00:42J.D. Vance is one of the last people Americans would want to see serve as president.
00:47But let me just say this. If he can show us that it's a bill we want to pass, it's a good bill,
00:53and if he can show us that there are ten votes now, maybe that his vice president's changed,
00:57we'll get the bill done. We may need a time limit. We don't want to take two weeks.
01:03We can't with three weeks left, but so far, lead Republicans are blocking it.
01:08John Thune doesn't want to have the two people on the trains, which are very important.
01:13Other people are blocking it, but show us the ten votes and we'll get it done. Yes.
