David Young Clings Tight To Trump In Radio Interview
At the top of a Nov. 13 interview on the Simon Conway Show, Young was asked why he wanted to return to Washington, D.C.
“In 10 to 20 years, I don’t want to look back and say I did nothing in the battle of 2020 when it was capitalism versus — and I’m not an edgy guy or fear-monger — but versus socialism,” said Young. “I want to say I was at the front-line kicking tail.”
While in Congress, Conway said Young had a nice-guy reputation. “This is an entirely different David Young,” Conway said. “What happened?”
“Reflection, as to what happened last fall,” Young replied. “As well, getting bucked up by a president who is a handful, but he’s a fighter. And you can be principled, you can be nice and cordial, but you can be bold and strong. You got to fight because the other side is bringing out their knives all the time. And I’m tired of having my hand tied behind my back.”

In his interview with Conway, a conservative radio host, Young defended President Trump and diminished the impeachment inquiry, accused Congresswoman Axne of voting against Iowans’ interests and said installing a wall at the southern border would be a top priority if he was elected.

Looks like Young has embraced his inner Trump.
