WEBVTT - Was It A Joke? 0:00:00.090 --> 0:00:03.410 Okay, my friends, the best way to listen to the 0:00:03.450 --> 0:00:09.110 Kuhner Report is on the iHeartRadio app. And the reason 0:00:09.150 --> 0:00:14.830 why I mention that is every Monday, final segment. Mike, 0:00:14.870 --> 0:00:17.800 would you say it's our most popular segment now? That 0:00:17.840 --> 0:00:21.680 and I think Caller of the Week. I think those are, 0:00:22.420 --> 0:00:26.139 I think, our two most favorite segments. But anyway, if 0:00:26.180 --> 0:00:29.040 you want to be part of Kuhner's Talk Back Tit 0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:32.959 for Tat, What you do is you download the iHeartRadio app, 0:00:33.000 --> 0:00:35.900 you look for the red microphone in the upper right 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:39.270 corner of the app, and you just leave a message. 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:45.239 For me, for Mike, for Sandy, agree, disagree, respond, react, 0:00:45.840 --> 0:00:49.940 anything goes. You can leave your talkbacks anytime during the week. 0:00:50.020 --> 0:00:53.210 And as I just said, every Monday in the final segment, 0:00:53.750 --> 0:00:56.990 we will play the best ones on the air. 0:00:57.550 --> 0:00:59.330 So download the iHeart app. 0:01:01.330 --> 0:01:05.860 Hit that red microphone and join Cooner's talk back tit 0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:11.160 for tat. A lot of reaction on Grace's hit, pro 0:01:11.400 --> 0:01:19.069 and con. This is from 603. Jeff, I disagree with 0:01:19.150 --> 0:01:23.470 Grace on this one. I believe what Trump meant was 0:01:23.870 --> 0:01:28.770 a quote unquote, for instance, as it pertained to Los 0:01:28.890 --> 0:01:33.150 Angeles and San Diego. stating that if those two cities 0:01:33.209 --> 0:01:36.509 were hit by Iran, if he hadn't done anything, that 0:01:36.550 --> 0:01:38.610 we would be singing a very different tune. 0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:41.980 I agree. To me, that's how I clearly read it. 0:01:42.940 --> 0:01:45.140 You know, as he's going on saying, look, gas prices 0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:48.000 are going to get low, we're paying a small temporary price, 0:01:48.660 --> 0:01:51.790 you know, but basically, you know, for instance, what? You know, 0:01:51.850 --> 0:01:54.190 I should have, what, let him hit L.A.? What, let 0:01:54.230 --> 0:01:54.990 him hit San Diego? 0:01:55.050 --> 0:01:55.130 No. 0:01:56.180 --> 0:01:58.080 And, you know, his implication is then you'd all be 0:01:58.100 --> 0:01:59.560 singing a very different tune, right? 0:02:00.540 --> 0:02:00.760 Right? 0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:07.280 So, you know, clearly that's what he meant. Grace disagrees. 0:02:07.530 --> 0:02:10.889 She thinks he was making a joke, a bad joke 0:02:11.169 --> 0:02:15.270 that landed badly. And now the media is eating him 0:02:15.350 --> 0:02:19.829 alive for it. So my question to you, do you 0:02:19.910 --> 0:02:23.579 agree with Grace or do you disagree? Do you think 0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:27.000 Trump was making a joke? And do you think it 0:02:27.030 --> 0:02:29.720 was a bad decision, as Grace says, to make that 0:02:29.780 --> 0:02:34.620 joke with the midterms just weeks away and the media 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:38.220 looking to pounce on anything that he says? That the 0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:42.419 president needs to be much more careful with his language, 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:46.800 his rhetoric, and the words that he uses. Grace says 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:51.079 he does. I say they're out to get him. What 0:02:51.180 --> 0:02:51.680 say you? 0:02:52.889 --> 0:02:57.110 Rose in Norwood. Thanks for holding, Rose, and welcome. 0:03:01.330 --> 0:03:01.690 Rose? 0:03:03.830 --> 0:03:05.769 All right, let's see if we can reconnect with Rose. 0:03:06.250 --> 0:03:10.100 Tom in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding, Tom, and welcome. 0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.800 Hey, Jeff. Great show, as always. 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:14.560 Thank you, Tom. 0:03:15.540 --> 0:03:18.920 Jeff, I get a greeting with Grace on this. She's 0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:22.040 pointed this out many times to you, not just on this. 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:27.640 But the war in Iran, he promised no wars, the tariffs. 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:32.380 He does stuff. He hurts himself and he hurts the country. 0:03:33.100 --> 0:03:36.529 Grace has pointed this out many times. And that's his 0:03:36.570 --> 0:03:39.930 main problem. There was no need to say what he 0:03:39.950 --> 0:03:44.370 did about San Diego, Los Angeles. It's like Franklin Roosevelt 0:03:44.390 --> 0:03:47.910 during World War II to Hitler, one of the states 0:03:47.950 --> 0:03:50.900 that he never carried. You can take them out. I'm 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:55.690 just joking. You don't do that. I mean, he says 0:03:55.750 --> 0:03:59.690 he's going to annihilate Iran, that they're the enemy. And 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:01.960 then he says to Iran, I'll blow up a couple 0:04:02.020 --> 0:04:07.940 cities in my country. I mean, and now they're going 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:12.000 to go after him. They're not going to stop. Don't forget, 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:17.100 how many Hispanics live in Southern California? And that's 10 million? 0:04:17.670 --> 0:04:21.700 Five million? So he's going to, so the spin will be, 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:25.690 he wants to kill all the Hispanics, all the illegals. 0:04:26.350 --> 0:04:27.130 He'll kill them all. 0:04:28.410 --> 0:04:32.670 Now, Grace is 100% right. He does this all the time. 0:04:33.589 --> 0:04:38.039 Instead of worrying about our country, like taking over the 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:43.180 Panama Canal, staying here, stay out of foreign laws, like 0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:47.120 we did for 150 years until World War I. I mean, 0:04:47.740 --> 0:04:51.360 that's what should be— do you realize a lot of people 0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:55.700 don't know this? When we had a war with Mexico, 0:04:56.700 --> 0:05:00.360 the reason we had that war was to take over 0:05:00.420 --> 0:05:03.820 southwest part of that country. We wanted it. So the 0:05:03.860 --> 0:05:07.180 president at the time, he got Congress to go along, 0:05:07.620 --> 0:05:10.580 and that's how we got New Mexico, Arizona, California. We 0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:15.450 went to Mexico. We took over Mexico, Mexico City. And 0:05:15.470 --> 0:05:21.730 we decided to leave Mexico because it's all Hispanic Mexicans assimilation. 0:05:22.270 --> 0:05:26.029 And we put the Rio Grande as the border. So 0:05:26.230 --> 0:05:31.600 that's what he should be doing. Like Greenland's good. But 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:35.680 what he does, he just hurts himself. He hurts the country. 0:05:36.260 --> 0:05:38.219 And it's not good, Jeff. 0:05:39.500 --> 0:05:42.440 Well, Tom, let me ask you this. I don't hear 0:05:42.500 --> 0:05:45.760 a joke. Now, we can agree to disagree. Grace does, 0:05:45.850 --> 0:05:48.589 you do. And you think it was a joke in 0:05:48.750 --> 0:05:53.849 very bad taste and a needlessly self-inflicted wound. Tom, I 0:05:53.890 --> 0:05:56.950 got to ask you, though, for the media to go 0:05:57.150 --> 0:06:00.429 on and say that the president of the United States 0:06:01.390 --> 0:06:06.110 is calling for Iran or wants Iran to nuke two 0:06:06.190 --> 0:06:12.850 American cities. I mean, if that's not media malpractice, If 0:06:12.890 --> 0:06:15.770 that's not a blatant lie from the media, I don't 0:06:15.830 --> 0:06:19.290 know what is. Doesn't the media, I get it, you're 0:06:19.310 --> 0:06:21.750 critical of Trump and some of the things he says 0:06:21.810 --> 0:06:26.050 and does, but don't you think the media bears a 0:06:26.130 --> 0:06:29.589 large responsibility for this as well? Okay, I'm going to 0:06:29.610 --> 0:06:31.810 go right back to Tom, but just before I do, 0:06:31.870 --> 0:06:35.040 very quick, the whole family now is weighing in. 0:06:35.890 --> 0:06:38.330 It's like a family free-for-all. Yeah. 0:06:38.860 --> 0:06:44.130 So this is my sister out in Tucson, Arizona. Just 0:06:44.150 --> 0:06:48.010 so that you know, her son, my wonderful nephew, Andrew, 0:06:48.980 --> 0:06:51.560 is in the customs. He's working now for Customs and 0:06:51.580 --> 0:06:56.670 Border Protection. And he's now based in San Diego. So 0:06:56.730 --> 0:07:00.560 he's actually, you know, on the San Diego sector. So 0:07:00.660 --> 0:07:03.500 this is kind of touching a raw nerve with my sister. 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:08.100 So this is what she texted me on my phone. Obviously, 0:07:08.180 --> 0:07:16.340 she disagrees with Grace. Jeff, this is ridiculous. Our Navy 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:21.470 is in San Diego. The Marines train on various bases 0:07:21.550 --> 0:07:27.260 between Los Angeles and San Diego. Trump's daughter lives in California. 0:07:27.900 --> 0:07:32.850 He has business properties in California. Of course he did 0:07:32.900 --> 0:07:37.250 not actually mean that Iran should blow up Los Angeles 0:07:37.330 --> 0:07:42.190 or San Diego. Do people just have no common sense anymore? 0:07:43.310 --> 0:07:49.140 Trump can't even speak anymore without people constantly deciphering what 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:54.820 they think he was trying to say. When Biden babbled 0:07:54.940 --> 0:07:58.660 all kinds of nonsense, no one had issues with it. 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:04.820 Maxine Waters openly threatened to kill Trump. The media said 0:08:04.850 --> 0:08:08.930 that's not what she meant. The media, Jeff, as you've 0:08:08.950 --> 0:08:14.410 been saying all morning, are scumbags paid by the Democrats. 0:08:15.190 --> 0:08:20.710 And notice, always this frenzy ramps up during election season. 0:08:21.640 --> 0:08:26.900 We need to stay focused and not be sidetracked. Jen, 0:08:27.060 --> 0:08:27.600 I miss you. 0:08:28.370 --> 0:08:31.230 I miss you. And I could use you at the 0:08:31.270 --> 0:08:32.910 dinner table. That's all I could. 0:08:33.309 --> 0:08:36.410 You know, I just sometimes I feel like I'm outnumbered because, 0:08:36.429 --> 0:08:38.390 you know, the kids, they always side with the mother. 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:44.110 All right, let's go right back to Tom in New Hampshire. Tom, 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:47.550 you were saying you agree with Grace that Trump keeps 0:08:47.590 --> 0:08:50.990 putting his foot in his mouth, that he's sometimes his 0:08:51.050 --> 0:08:54.910 own worst enemy. He says things he shouldn't say. You 0:08:54.929 --> 0:08:57.960 believe the Iran war has been a failure. And to 0:08:58.100 --> 0:09:03.160 even joke about it is very unpresidential. He should not 0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.960 have said it. And now he's given the media and 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.760 his enemies all the ammunition they need to really hurt 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:14.580 him and damage him weeks before the midterm. Tom, did 0:09:14.620 --> 0:09:16.990 I sum up your position fairly and accurately? 0:09:18.950 --> 0:09:24.650 Yes, in that with Iran, like when he speaks as 0:09:24.710 --> 0:09:30.490 a president, he should be speaking good things. Like, I'm 0:09:30.510 --> 0:09:33.570 pulling out of Iran. I'm getting rid of the terrorists. 0:09:34.550 --> 0:09:38.429 Joke about that. But don't joke about blowing up your country. 0:09:39.309 --> 0:09:43.559 You've got to remember, the media always goes after presidents 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:49.860 more than others since George Washington was president. He had 0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:54.030 Thomas Jefferson as a secretary of state. Thomas Jefferson owned 0:09:54.050 --> 0:09:57.930 a newspaper, and he would hammer George Washington every month 0:09:58.210 --> 0:10:02.340 through his newspaper secretly. It started with the first president. 0:10:03.220 --> 0:10:05.200 So you always got to have the media bashing the 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:11.460 president or bashing anybody. So get over that. But you 0:10:11.500 --> 0:10:16.460 shouldn't open up yourself to a ridiculous statement, and now 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:20.620 they can run with it. As president, you don't do that. 0:10:21.350 --> 0:10:23.630 If you do it, you're going to get whacked and 0:10:23.650 --> 0:10:26.470 you're going to get whacked again and again and again. 0:10:27.750 --> 0:10:31.250 When you open yourself, you don't think when you speak 0:10:32.130 --> 0:10:34.969 and it hurts yourself, it hurts the country and you 0:10:35.010 --> 0:10:38.350 don't do it. And if you do it, you're going 0:10:38.370 --> 0:10:40.209 to pay for it and the country is going to 0:10:40.270 --> 0:10:40.910 pay for it. 0:10:41.790 --> 0:10:45.530 Interesting. Tom, interesting call as always. All right. 0:10:45.580 --> 0:10:49.310 So Tom is with Grace. He thinks Trump stepped in 0:10:49.370 --> 0:10:50.790 it and stepped in it big. 0:10:51.330 --> 0:10:51.990 Agree. 0:10:52.250 --> 0:10:56.230 Disagree. Tom, thank you very much for that call. As always, 0:10:56.830 --> 0:11:00.250 Monica in Lowell. Thanks for holding, Monica. 0:11:00.710 --> 0:11:01.210 And welcome. 0:11:01.910 --> 0:11:02.930 Hey, Jeff. 0:11:03.010 --> 0:11:04.330 It's been so long. 0:11:04.390 --> 0:11:05.710 I've been trying to get in and nobody. 0:11:05.730 --> 0:11:06.670 You know, it's great. 0:11:07.290 --> 0:11:10.080 Oh, it's great to hear from you, Monica. How have 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:10.540 you been? 0:11:11.929 --> 0:11:12.530 I am blessed. 0:11:12.550 --> 0:11:14.790 Thank you so much, Jeff. I want to say that 0:11:14.970 --> 0:11:18.470 I'm a blessed immigrant. I'm someone that loves America so much. 0:11:19.230 --> 0:11:22.230 And this thing about, one of the biggest things I 0:11:22.230 --> 0:11:23.840 want to talk about is the safe arts. It's a 0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:27.880 big disgrace, a big shame that the Republicans could not 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:30.440 get the safe arts passed. 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:33.300 I cannot believe they're there. 0:11:33.179 --> 0:11:37.280 And they did not do that. That said, Trump, Trump 0:11:37.340 --> 0:11:41.089 is fighting Iran because he's trying to save us. So 0:11:41.170 --> 0:11:42.710 people trying to say, oh, we're going to vote for 0:11:42.730 --> 0:11:44.990 the other side. And, you know, he wants to blow 0:11:45.030 --> 0:11:47.900 California up. If he wants to blow California up and 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:50.720 the other states, why is he fighting? Are we thinking? 0:11:51.179 --> 0:11:54.819 We're not thinking. It seems like Americans have lost their 0:11:54.860 --> 0:11:58.340 thinking caps. What joke? It wasn't a joke. He's trying 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.000 to tell you. You guys vote on the other side. 0:12:01.490 --> 0:12:04.550 Think about it. They could blow California. They could blow 0:12:04.570 --> 0:12:07.210 this place. That's what he was saying. I don't understand. 0:12:07.230 --> 0:12:09.750 This should not be something we should be debating at 0:12:09.790 --> 0:12:13.570 this time. Trump is fighting for America. Trump loves America. 0:12:13.890 --> 0:12:15.670 Trump is trying to keep America safe. 0:12:16.190 --> 0:12:17.550 Biden opened the border. 0:12:17.770 --> 0:12:22.860 Everywhere was helpless. The roads are ugly, dirty. Everywhere is dirty. 0:12:22.890 --> 0:12:26.540 Those immigrants coming to America want to change America back 0:12:26.580 --> 0:12:29.540 to the country they came from. Think about it. You 0:12:29.580 --> 0:12:32.060 came from somewhere crazy, right? And then you want to 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.860 change America. You want to turn America into that country. 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:38.590 They're voting for people that came from those countries that, 0:12:38.690 --> 0:12:42.090 you know, it's like slums. Why do you want that? 0:12:42.290 --> 0:12:45.460 If you want that, then stay over there. And, you know, 0:12:45.630 --> 0:12:47.679 I voted for Trump three times, but I think Trump 0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:51.420 made a big mistake for the Iran war at this time. 0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:55.199 If Trump did it after the, you know, meters. 0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:57.260 It would have been better. 0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:00.949 We won't be talking about this. Gas price was $ 5 0:13:00.870 --> 0:13:02.950 on the Biden. Now it's $ 4 and something. 0:13:02.990 --> 0:13:03.190 Why? 0:13:03.210 --> 0:13:05.530 Because there's something going on, right? But why was it 0:13:05.530 --> 0:13:08.930 $ 5 on the Biden? Americans are not thinking. I talk 0:13:08.970 --> 0:13:11.500 to a lot of youth because I talk about issues. 0:13:11.530 --> 0:13:14.319 I don't talk about Democrats or Republicans. I just talk 0:13:14.340 --> 0:13:14.800 about issues. 0:13:14.860 --> 0:13:15.219 I ask. 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:16.920 But you know one thing a lot of youth have 0:13:16.940 --> 0:13:17.480 been asking me? 0:13:17.940 --> 0:13:21.030 What is communism? What is socialism? Guess what? 0:13:21.470 --> 0:13:23.630 They are thinking. They are asking questions. 0:13:23.670 --> 0:13:24.230 But you know what? 0:13:24.770 --> 0:13:25.910 We don't have people like you. 0:13:25.790 --> 0:13:30.980 To educate them. All they hear is that stupid... Fake news. 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:33.660 People don't know the real truth. 0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:37.750 They're dying. So please, if you're listening to me right now, don't. 0:13:37.550 --> 0:13:42.050 Get angry with people. Talk about the issues. Educate them 0:13:42.190 --> 0:13:45.309 about the issues. And one by one, I've been trying 0:13:45.350 --> 0:13:49.770 to turn people into, you know, conservative voting rights. 0:13:49.790 --> 0:13:50.470 They need to vote. 0:13:50.730 --> 0:13:52.390 I mean, I'm in Massachusetts. 0:13:52.830 --> 0:13:54.809 And guess what? My vote don't count. 0:13:54.850 --> 0:13:59.250 But guess what? I still vote. I still vote. 0:13:59.309 --> 0:14:03.290 God bless you, Monica. Monica, don't be a stranger. Please 0:14:03.330 --> 0:14:07.510 call again. You know, you're another one I need at 0:14:07.550 --> 0:14:14.520 my dinner table, Monica. I could use you when I 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:18.140 have these arguments or debates with my wonderful wife. Monica, 0:14:18.179 --> 0:14:23.130 thank you so much for that call. Look, Trump's communications 0:14:23.190 --> 0:14:27.140 team responded. And this is what they said, that obviously 0:14:27.220 --> 0:14:32.500 Trump did not mean that Iran should bomb or nuke 0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:36.470 Los Angeles or San Diego, nor, according to the White House, 0:14:36.570 --> 0:14:41.810 was even making a joke about it. But Trump's message 0:14:41.970 --> 0:14:45.170 is clear, as Stephen Chung, his communications director, put it. 0:14:46.030 --> 0:14:51.859 Iran has no nuclear program, no Navy, no Air Force, 0:14:52.460 --> 0:14:58.000 and soon no economy. Trump wants to keep America and 0:14:58.060 --> 0:15:04.130 American cities safe from an Iranian nuclear bomb. And that's 0:15:04.210 --> 0:15:07.850 why Trump decided to go to war. In other words, 0:15:07.910 --> 0:15:11.630 the White House is saying Trump meant and said the 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:15.660 exact opposite of what the media and the Democrats are 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:19.450 claiming that he said. You know, I mean, what, Trump 0:15:19.490 --> 0:15:22.630 went to war so they can bomb and nuke Iran? Sorry, 0:15:22.930 --> 0:15:26.510 Iran could nuke and bomb San Diego and Los Angeles? 0:15:27.670 --> 0:15:29.910 Like, really, do Democrats really believe that? 0:15:31.410 --> 0:15:34.820 I mean, seriously, I mean, you know, you can't fix stupid. 0:15:34.860 --> 0:15:36.440 If you really believe that, I don't know what to 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:41.000 tell you. No, he doesn't want L.A. and San Diego 0:15:41.060 --> 0:15:41.620 in ashes. 0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:47.430 Of course not. Sue in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding, Sue, 0:15:47.750 --> 0:15:48.220 and welcome. 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:55.240 It's been a while. I haven't been commuting. Hi, Sue. 0:15:55.880 --> 0:16:00.660 Everything Monica said was fantastic. I'm with her. And I 0:16:00.700 --> 0:16:04.430 think Trump's response team should just start saying, stop it. 0:16:04.950 --> 0:16:08.970 Just stop it and just shut up. The other thing 0:16:09.010 --> 0:16:11.070 I was going to say is the reason I voted 0:16:11.090 --> 0:16:14.000 for Trump three times was I didn't really know about him. 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:17.870 And when I first saw the debate, the first debate, 0:16:17.970 --> 0:16:21.550 I loved his mouth. I loved his mouth. I'm like, oh, 0:16:21.610 --> 0:16:25.050 my God, he just says it. But people just need 0:16:25.090 --> 0:16:27.570 to stop it. He's got a good soul and he 0:16:27.770 --> 0:16:30.700 loves our country. And I just sit back and trust. 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:34.120 I don't get into the swamp and the details. But 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:36.000 I do know they're going to cheat in the elections. 0:16:36.100 --> 0:16:37.060 And that makes me sick. 0:16:37.380 --> 0:16:40.330 Well, that's the other story. I'm going to get to it, 0:16:40.360 --> 0:16:42.640 I promise. But that was the second big story they're 0:16:42.660 --> 0:16:45.910 trying to cover up. Trump is now calling them out. 0:16:46.030 --> 0:16:52.230 Maricopa County, which is the key county in Arizona, notoriously corrupt. 0:16:52.290 --> 0:16:52.850 Guess what? 0:16:53.650 --> 0:17:01.120 They just sent out 3,000 mail-in ballots illegally. Illegally and prematurely. 0:17:01.700 --> 0:17:02.560 And they got caught. 0:17:03.850 --> 0:17:06.590 And Trump is saying they're already trying to steal the 0:17:06.690 --> 0:17:07.550 midterm elections. 0:17:07.590 --> 0:17:08.669 We caught him red handed. 0:17:09.690 --> 0:17:11.850 And of course, the media had to get that story 0:17:11.930 --> 0:17:15.070 off the radar, that and Spygate with Joe Biden. 0:17:15.550 --> 0:17:19.730 Eric in Plymouth. Thanks for holding, Eric. And welcome. 0:17:21.170 --> 0:17:22.710 Thank you for taking my call, Jeff. 0:17:22.910 --> 0:17:23.650 My pleasure, Eric. 0:17:24.810 --> 0:17:31.109 Agree with Monica, Tom, you. They have been doing this. 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:39.420 Eric, are you there? We just suddenly lost Eric. Eric, 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:41.270 hold on. We're going to try to reconnect with you. 0:17:42.090 --> 0:17:42.730 Do we have you? 0:17:43.670 --> 0:17:44.190 Yes, you do. 0:17:44.290 --> 0:17:44.730 Okay, okay. 0:17:44.770 --> 0:17:47.229 You're back. For some reason, you just dropped. So you 0:17:47.270 --> 0:17:52.030 said you agree with Monica, me, Tom, and Sue. 0:17:52.109 --> 0:17:52.770 Go ahead, Eric. 0:17:53.690 --> 0:17:57.010 The media mullahs, Joe Biden bullseye. They've been after the 0:17:57.050 --> 0:18:01.070 January 6th. This is Gaslighting 101. We're used to this. 0:18:02.420 --> 0:18:06.210 There's so many, the retarded nation, okay, the abomination. 0:18:07.810 --> 0:18:13.590 Eric, you're dropping on us again, Eric. We lost Eric. 0:18:14.430 --> 0:18:16.750 Eric, I think what you were saying, we had a 0:18:16.770 --> 0:18:19.730 hard time hearing you, but look, look at the way 0:18:19.770 --> 0:18:24.209 the media covered up for Biden. I mean, he was 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:28.619 saying the stupidest, most crazy things. He was rambling, making 0:18:28.700 --> 0:18:32.429 no sense whatsoever. And they would cover up for him 0:18:32.590 --> 0:18:35.600 again and again and again. I mean, it was a 0:18:35.740 --> 0:18:40.400 love fest with him and with Obama. And with Trump, 0:18:41.040 --> 0:18:43.480 they got to pull this word out of context, this 0:18:43.570 --> 0:18:44.990 sentence out of context. 0:18:46.030 --> 0:18:49.669 Look, you may disagree with the Iran war. I get it. 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:54.119 But the justification in his view for the war, the 0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:58.590 cuss's belly, okay, as they say, was he wanted Iran 0:18:58.619 --> 0:19:01.930 to not get a nuclear bomb because he feared eventually 0:19:01.950 --> 0:19:04.030 it would be used maybe on Europe, but eventually maybe 0:19:04.070 --> 0:19:06.790 on the United States. And he said, I was not 0:19:06.850 --> 0:19:09.430 going to risk the security of the United States for, 0:19:09.910 --> 0:19:12.450 you know, he even said it earlier on. He said, what, 0:19:12.590 --> 0:19:16.280 I don't want a missile, a nuclear-tipped missile to hit Miami. 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:20.480 Then he used Miami as an example. And then other 0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.180 times he said, I don't want it to hit Boston 0:19:22.260 --> 0:19:25.619 or Chicago or New York. Well, the speech in Nebraska, 0:19:25.700 --> 0:19:31.260 clearly he meant Los Angeles or San Diego. The idea 0:19:31.340 --> 0:19:35.870 that the president of the United States wants Iran to 0:19:36.030 --> 0:19:42.210 nuke L.A. and San Diego and sacrifice 10 million people 0:19:42.350 --> 0:19:46.379 as collateral damage as a, quote, small price to pay. A, 0:19:46.369 --> 0:19:52.310 he did not say that. and B, that the media 0:19:52.390 --> 0:19:54.890 is trying to claim he said that is to their 0:19:55.030 --> 0:20:01.300 eternal shame. And that Democrats believe it? You're talking about 0:20:01.340 --> 0:20:05.600 a level of stupidity that, honestly, I can't help you. Like, 0:20:05.900 --> 0:20:09.090 after a while, I don't know what to say. If 0:20:09.130 --> 0:20:11.290 this is the level of your mind, then we have 0:20:11.350 --> 0:20:12.350 nothing to talk about. 0:20:12.369 --> 0:20:19.290 I'm sorry, am I wrong? Sarah in Saugus. Thanks for holding, Sarah, 0:20:19.609 --> 0:20:20.070 and welcome. 0:20:21.650 --> 0:20:24.910 Thank you, Jeff, for taking my call. My pleasure. 0:20:25.290 --> 0:20:25.670 Thank you. 0:20:26.210 --> 0:20:30.070 I just wanted to say it's interesting how people can't 0:20:30.250 --> 0:20:34.070 see that– well, let me put it this way. If 0:20:34.109 --> 0:20:36.370 there was a pregnant woman and she was two months 0:20:36.410 --> 0:20:38.350 pregnant and she went to go visit her sister who 0:20:38.410 --> 0:20:41.350 had mumps and then the baby was severely affected, she 0:20:41.390 --> 0:20:43.350 didn't do that on purpose. Or if she had a 0:20:43.410 --> 0:20:45.889 kid who she was taking home from the hospital and 0:20:45.930 --> 0:20:47.550 was sitting at a red light and the car gets 0:20:47.609 --> 0:20:50.020 hit and the kid has to go back in the hospital– 0:20:50.230 --> 0:20:54.540 These things are all about timing, and nobody seems to– well, 0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:56.970 not nobody, but a lot of people don't seem to 0:20:57.100 --> 0:21:01.440 see that we had to preemptively strike. We were being 0:21:01.500 --> 0:21:05.959 faced with the potentiality of having a nuke sent on us, 0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:08.980 and what I don't understand. 0:21:08.540 --> 0:21:12.699 Is people can't see that, but they see that the 0:21:12.760 --> 0:21:17.580 president is making jokes, but they don't see that we 0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:21.159 were under– we were in a position where we might've 0:21:21.220 --> 0:21:23.679 had a war against, I mean, a. 0:21:23.660 --> 0:21:27.050 Nuke sent on us. It's about timing. He didn't want 0:21:27.070 --> 0:21:28.450 to have it at this time. 0:21:28.550 --> 0:21:32.129 I'm sure the timing would have been after the midterm. 0:21:32.570 --> 0:21:33.470 Well, yeah, Sarah. 0:21:33.510 --> 0:21:33.670 Yeah. 0:21:33.690 --> 0:21:36.530 That's no, you're, I mean, you're dead on. He's in fact, 0:21:36.630 --> 0:21:38.430 I know for a fact, I have to be careful 0:21:38.470 --> 0:21:41.180 how I phrase this, but you know, I have good 0:21:41.240 --> 0:21:45.300 sources within the administration and, The president wishes he didn't 0:21:45.340 --> 0:21:47.820 do it before the midterm, not because he didn't believe 0:21:47.859 --> 0:21:52.000 in what he did, but because he had a compressed timeline. 0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:55.570 And he knew that gas prices would go up because 0:21:55.609 --> 0:21:58.070 of the war. That was inevitable. Energy would go up. 0:21:58.530 --> 0:22:01.270 Diesel would go up. And the Democrats would use it 0:22:01.330 --> 0:22:04.600 against him. So if he could have picked the time 0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:08.540 of his choosing, he would have waited until after the midterms. 0:22:09.609 --> 0:22:11.330 He would have had a lot more time and then 0:22:11.850 --> 0:22:15.310 the effects wouldn't have been so bad and destructive for 0:22:15.350 --> 0:22:18.850 him and the country politically. Sarah, I want to ask 0:22:18.910 --> 0:22:23.629 you a serious question. Do you think that the president 0:22:24.130 --> 0:22:28.380 of the United States, Donald Trump, wants to see two 0:22:28.460 --> 0:22:32.439 blue big cities like San Diego and Los Angeles? Do 0:22:32.480 --> 0:22:35.629 you think he wants to see them nuked? like he 0:22:35.670 --> 0:22:39.070 just wants them incinerated by Iran? Do you think he 0:22:39.109 --> 0:22:39.870 really wants that? 0:22:39.869 --> 0:22:43.250 100% no, no. 0:22:43.330 --> 0:22:49.100 He just misspoke or he doesn't present his speech articulately enough, unfortunately, 0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:50.500 but absolutely no. 0:22:51.100 --> 0:22:51.699 But people are. 0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:54.500 Willing to believe it, just like they're willing to believe 0:22:54.540 --> 0:22:55.939 that he deliberately got. 0:22:55.780 --> 0:22:58.399 Involved when we had no reason and it didn't affect us, 0:22:58.530 --> 0:22:59.570 when that's not the truth. 0:23:00.390 --> 0:23:03.250 Or that he's a pedophile. In fact, he's the guy 0:23:03.270 --> 0:23:06.629 that called the police on Epstein. He's the guy that 0:23:06.670 --> 0:23:09.330 had Epstein arrested. I mean, I could go on and on, 0:23:09.369 --> 0:23:12.380 but no, no, he's the pedophile. I mean, and, you know, 0:23:12.500 --> 0:23:14.699 on and on. There's so many of them. Like, you know, 0:23:14.740 --> 0:23:18.210 he was an agent of Vladimir Putin, you know, or 0:23:18.330 --> 0:23:18.889 he's Hitler.
