BILL HEMMER (CO-ANCHOR): Just a comment on the transparency you see here. Look at that room.
CLAY TRAVIS (FOUNDER, OUTKICK): I love it. Look, I thought that he did his best speech that he has ever given in the inaugural address, and it wasn't because it had a lot of bells and whistles or pretty flourishes, it was because he said exactly what he was going to do. And if you are an American, Democrat, Republican, white, Black, Asian, Hispanic, what you want is an executive who talks to you honestly. He's got a press conference today at four. Bill, think about this, and this is not even hyperbole, I think Donald Trump has answered more unscripted questions from the media since he took the oath of office yesterday at noon, than Joe Biden did in the entire last year. He's telling you exactly what he is going to do. He's laid it out for the American people, and I was at those balls last night, you might be able to tell, until after midnight. Trump didn't come out at the second of the three balls that he was going to go to until nearly midnight, Bill. He took the mic and spoke for 15 more minutes there. I mean, this guy has energy unlike, frankly, we have seen from a president, maybe ever in our lifetimes. But to be doing what he is doing, hit the ground running. I love the pardon of the Jan 6 political prisoners, I'm ecstatic about what he is going to be able to accomplish in the next six months.
