Hi, my name's Athena. I'm actually coming from New Jersey, so thank you for having me. So my question, a little bit unrelated to what you guys were just talking about.

No, shockingly not. OK, so recently, Trump was given Person of the Year. It's really been given to pretty much every president that's ever been voted in, just kind of the most important person.

So I noticed when I was reading the media on it that on the right, you had, you know, Trump gets person of the year, and then you start looking at the past, and you had Democratic presidents, and the headlines were so sweet. It was, you know, an honor was bestowed unto them. And then when Trump won, there was this magazine, I think called Metro, and in the headline it said...

Trump joins exclusive club that Hitler and Stalin enjoyed. No, come on. I did not see that. I swear on my life. And I posted a video on this on my TikTok, and it went viral because people had no idea. So my question to you guys is, what do you think Trump should or shouldn't do about the issue of this defamation all in the media? Because it's slander pretty much.

Okay, so I'm Athena from South Carolina. I'm a senior this year, and I want to go to college for political science, and I want to be a political commentator. And I was wondering if you have any advice for me

and I really admire what both of y'all do, and I really feel called to that, and I want to minister the gospel through that, and I want to just reach people, and I want to share the truth as a woman, as a Christian, as a Republican, and I just wondered if you have any advice.

Well, I know that. I know that. I actually, I agree with you on some things, but also I was talking to my parents about it and they feel similarly to you. But my dad was saying that if God wants me to do that and go get an education, he'll provide the money that I need to do that. And I really feel like I want to be...

Like, I know that, for example, Ben Shapiro went to a university and he got a higher education. And I know that that's the case for some people. They're supposed to do it and some people they're not. And I personally want to do that.

Yeah, I'm just saying, like, I know some people, like, that's what God is calling them to do, and I really feel like that's what I'm supposed to do. And I feel like, because I want to know what I'm talking about, and I want to make sure that I'm... Well, if you want to know what you're talking about, don't quit again.
