Meet the New GOP | Guest: Ron Simmons | Ep 1034

Today, we sit down with Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, to discuss former President Donald Trump’s big vice-presidential announcement. Will Ohio Sen. JD Vance give Trump the push he needs to win the election? What does this ticket mean for the pro-life agenda, and should we be worried? We also explore how a former never-Trumper could become the second-highest leader in the country. Monday was day one of the Republican National Convention, and it was a doozy. We break down the speeches and a highly contentious prayer by Harmeet Dhillon. Additionally, we examine the Secret Service’s failures at the Trump rally on Saturday — where were the agents supposed to be, and how could they have made such a colossal mistake?

Allie, there's something special about hearing a father and daughter have these informative conversations and perspective-sharing. Always love seeing your dad come on. Thanks!

[steveguti]

Jesus Christ is our only Hope for America and the whole world praise God praying for everyone Everyday God bless you all

Allie, we are a Bible-loving, Jesus-loving family. My husband is a laborer for Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad and I cannot even begin to tell you how much we appreciate the head of the Teamsters Union giving that speech. We were glued to his words and give a hearty “Amen” to all that he said. He spoke the truth. These laborers are worked literally beyond their physical and mental ability…without time off or even sick pay (although was finally approved for 3 days per year just a few months ago). To understand the heavy burdens placed upon these laborers, it might be a great idea to interview (or dig into) someone who is actually in this demographic. The speech was far from boring for us! And I do not mean that in a rude way to you!! I adore you and I absolutely LOVE your show and how you’ve grown my faith!! My husband is also the State legislator for the Union for the state of Oregon. It’s remarkable what the Railroad has demanded upon these people ~ and what their families endure! It is inhuman. Thank you for all you do!!!

Amber Rose is biracial and she was brought in because she is a celebrity that has influence over the urban neigborhoods. I hope this is the begining of change for her. Most people take years to change. It's not over night and she has said that her views are changing since becoming a mother. Pray for her.

You are so blessed to have such a wonderful dad. I am the same age as you and lost my dad 2 years ago to cancer. It brought me joy to see you two talk and remember all the great talks i had with my dad.

[aletheiaquest]

It's interesting that when I see that Ron is coming on, I'm not only excited, but I physiologically feel a type of calm and relief. It's always great to have him on.

[steveguti]

I would appreciate it Deeply if anyone could pray for me I'm very sick suffering with chronic pain from long time illness please pray for me I'm Suffering praying for Everyone everyday God bless you all

[taragrace]

Always appreciate your thoughts, Allie, I think though that we should rejoice and celebrate that people like Amber Rose are seeking the truth, and trust God with the rest! Totally understand where you’re coming from with the criticism, but this is a political convention, not a church. Our faith is not in a political party but in God alone.

I am glad to see the Republican party welcome her so that others may realize that being a republican does not automatically = being a Christian or all-around conservative. Let’s give them patience and grace, our job is to love/pray for them, and let God do the rest! We should not pretend to know anyone’s heart. In the end, thank goodness, we don’t have to be the Judge!

[lamariquita_]

I know Amber may not have been the best person up there but I think the point they’re trying to make is how peoples minds can be changed for the better. This is just the beginning for her. She may change even more along the way as she grows. Hopefully she’ll give her life to Christ and she’ll see Christians will love her deeply.

Fav guest: Ron Simmons! He has such wisdom and does well to have the “calm insights” in the storms. So appreciate his take on current events.

[carriemooney]

Allie you are very blessed to have the wonderful relationship you have with your Dad!

[TheIckpa]

Your dad is gold. It’s amazing the road that lead both of you here.. makes me wonder about the prayers he prayed “over your crib” and now look at you both. For His Glory. 🙏🏼

Also, not a must.. and maybe a bad idea, but would be interesting to hear one of these days about things you and your dad disagree on. Respectfully only! Would just be interesting.. because I think we all have things we don’t agree with our parents. Anyways, not entirely sure if that would work well on air but just a thought I had watching you two. 😊

I had surgery on my ear, and that is exactly how they covered it. It's just a guaze square folded and taped on. It catches drainage and keeps hair and lint from getting in the wound and causing infection.

[steveguti]

Jesus Christ died for our Sins according to the scriptures and that he was Buried and he rose Again the third day praise God praying For Everyone everyday God Bless you all.

[ladygrey]

I really like her dad, he seems so reasonable, keep him coming on please!

[stephaniedeserio]

I always love when your dad is on! Such solid wisdom and insight. ❤

[downlow]

Totally noticed the countenance too. Maybe the Lord is working in his heart ❤

[lizromero]

ONE of my favorite episode for your pod cast. Your dad!! How sweet is he and your back and forth conversation was so good. Great dad, great daughter. ❤

[shelleyirwin]

Love my senator JD Vance. I voted for him 2 years ago. I had the opportunity to meet him but we couldn’t get off work so I gave my tickets to a customer who has become a friend. He now has a picture with Don Jr and JD. We also have another friend who met JD and he says he’s a good man.

😢 Seeing this Sikh prayer at the RNC....I am aghast. Its a prayer to a god not to the One true God.
