WEBVTT - Willful Misrepresentation

0:00:00.150 --> 0:00:06.180
<v Speaker 1>Okay, 720-ish Wednesday, you know what that means. Truth or Troll,

0:00:06.280 --> 0:00:08.539
<v Speaker 1>take it away, Mike.

0:00:11.160 --> 0:00:16.610
<v Speaker 2>And now, America's favorite game show, where you get to

0:00:16.690 --> 0:00:18.470
<v Speaker 2>decide on the Kuna Report.

0:00:18.850 --> 0:00:21.660
<v Speaker 3>This is Truth or Troll.

0:00:25.100 --> 0:00:27.800
<v Speaker 4>Today's entry of Truth or Troll comes from Donald Trump

0:00:27.860 --> 0:00:30.530
<v Speaker 4>speaking to reporters outside Air Force One the other day

0:00:30.630 --> 0:00:35.290
<v Speaker 4>where he ominously discusses the prospect of jailing reporters over leaks.

0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 5>They would arrest the people, the reporters, unless they gave them.

0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 3>The names and the addresses of the.

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 2>Reporter or whoever it is that gave the leak. Obama

0:00:47.740 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 2>used to go in, and if there was a leak,

0:00:50.580 --> 0:00:52.740
<v Speaker 2>they would say to people, you have 15 minutes, and

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:56.040
<v Speaker 2>if you don't give us the information, you go into jail.

0:00:56.080 --> 0:00:57.340
<v Speaker 6>And I guess two.

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.540
<v Speaker 7>People went to jail, 10 people gave it up.

0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:01.740
<v Speaker 2>I haven't done that yet.

0:01:03.620 --> 0:01:07.319
<v Speaker 3>So there it is. He hasn't done that yet. So

0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 3>here's a question, Jeff.

0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:12.180
<v Speaker 4>Is that a not-so-veiled truthful threat to the press, or

0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:12.880
<v Speaker 4>is he just trolling?

0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:17.860
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I think it's truth. By the way, he's completely right.

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:23.420
<v Speaker 1>Obama arrested journalists because they were leaking, and he said,

0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to leak. You're compromising what he said

0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:31.750
<v Speaker 1>was classified information or national security information. And they threw

0:01:31.770 --> 0:01:35.230
<v Speaker 1>the book at him. Some broke and gave up their sources.

0:01:35.850 --> 0:01:39.069
<v Speaker 1>Others went to prison and the left had no problem

0:01:39.110 --> 0:01:42.039
<v Speaker 1>with it. And I think Trump is basically saying if

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:44.080
<v Speaker 1>it was good enough for Obama, it's good enough for me.

0:01:44.100 --> 0:01:48.730
<v Speaker 1>And he's telling them to their face. You keep leaking

0:01:48.810 --> 0:01:51.590
<v Speaker 1>or publishing leaks or, you know, going to these so-called

0:01:52.110 --> 0:01:58.490
<v Speaker 1>sources and, you know, publishing classified or sensitive national security information.

0:01:59.170 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to do to you what Obama did. So

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:06.580
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's trolling. I think he's telling them, stop,

0:02:07.220 --> 0:02:08.820
<v Speaker 1>or I'm going to, you know, I'm going to go

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:10.359
<v Speaker 1>Obama on your rear end.

0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:15.230
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to go Obama on your ass. So, no, I.

0:02:15.210 --> 0:02:18.310
<v Speaker 1>Think he's dead serious. I don't think he's trolling. I

0:02:18.340 --> 0:02:20.940
<v Speaker 1>think he's telling the truth, but that's me. I want

0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:24.900
<v Speaker 1>to hear from you. President Trump now says that he

0:02:25.220 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 1>may put journalists in jail if they continue to publish

0:02:31.500 --> 0:02:39.260
<v Speaker 1>or help leak classified sensitive national security information. Do you believe, A,

0:02:39.530 --> 0:02:43.209
<v Speaker 1>he's telling the truth? Or do you believe B, he's

0:02:43.270 --> 0:02:46.770
<v Speaker 1>just trolling, trying to get a rise out of the media,

0:02:46.810 --> 0:02:50.100
<v Speaker 1>having fun with them? You can vote on our webpage,

0:03:10.830 --> 0:03:15.170
<v Speaker 1>Jeff in Quincy. Thanks for holding, Jeff, and welcome.

0:03:16.270 --> 0:03:17.510
<v Speaker 5>Jeff, how are we doing today?

0:03:17.550 --> 0:03:18.470
<v Speaker 8>How's things?

0:03:18.850 --> 0:03:19.389
<v Speaker 5>So here it is.

0:03:19.450 --> 0:03:22.290
<v Speaker 2>I guess it's just another Wednesday in America with the media.

0:03:22.790 --> 0:03:23.410
<v Speaker 5>You know what I mean?

0:03:23.430 --> 0:03:28.880
<v Speaker 2>So this is exactly what happens. to a T when

0:03:28.900 --> 0:03:31.179
<v Speaker 2>you have no policy to run on. All you can

0:03:31.220 --> 0:03:36.740
<v Speaker 2>do is fear, gloom, doom. These people cost us 40% inflation,

0:03:36.780 --> 0:03:39.820
<v Speaker 2>yet they're crying about the affordability crisis. All right, I

0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.090
<v Speaker 2>just want to lay this on the table. The number

0:03:42.190 --> 0:03:45.150
<v Speaker 2>one affordability crisis in this country right now is our

0:03:45.190 --> 0:03:48.590
<v Speaker 2>goddamn tax bills, quite frankly. And if they wanted to

0:03:48.630 --> 0:03:52.710
<v Speaker 2>do something about these so-called affordability crisis, they could cut

0:03:52.750 --> 0:03:56.590
<v Speaker 2>the American people's taxes. in two seconds flat like Trump

0:03:56.610 --> 0:03:59.990
<v Speaker 2>did last night with the use of off-road diesel.

0:04:01.630 --> 0:04:03.990
<v Speaker 1>Jeff, I want to ask you, because I got a

0:04:04.310 --> 0:04:06.940
<v Speaker 1>text from Grace, my wonderful wife, who's going to be

0:04:07.020 --> 0:04:12.120
<v Speaker 1>on at 9 o'clock, and she's just making an observation.

0:04:12.620 --> 0:04:15.580
<v Speaker 1>She just said, wow, that's all she said. She said, wow,

0:04:16.230 --> 0:04:19.510
<v Speaker 1>your audience doesn't seem that mad at the media anymore.

0:04:20.470 --> 0:04:22.770
<v Speaker 1>And then I texted her back. This was during the break.

0:04:23.270 --> 0:04:24.070
<v Speaker 3>I said, I know.

0:04:24.190 --> 0:04:27.170
<v Speaker 1>I think they're just getting used to it. In other words, like, yeah,

0:04:27.210 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 1>that's just what they do. You know, they lie. They

0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:34.360
<v Speaker 1>lie and they propagandize. And, you know, that's what they do.

0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:38.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting the sense from you, from Larry, from others,

0:04:39.100 --> 0:04:43.020
<v Speaker 1>the callers, the texters. Jeff, you don't even seem almost

0:04:43.220 --> 0:04:46.789
<v Speaker 1>mad about it. It's sort of like the media will

0:04:46.830 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 1>do what the media will do. They lie for a living.

0:04:51.900 --> 0:04:55.180
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like a business model for them. Am I

0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:56.279
<v Speaker 1>missing something.

0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:56.350
<v Speaker 7>Here, Jeff?

0:04:57.860 --> 0:04:59.140
<v Speaker 5>You're not missing anything at all.

0:04:59.180 --> 0:05:01.839
<v Speaker 2>We don't have a media. We have Democrat operatives with

0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:04.839
<v Speaker 2>press passes in this country. It's that simple. We don't

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:07.919
<v Speaker 2>have a media at all. It's literally like Nazi Germany

0:05:07.980 --> 0:05:11.450
<v Speaker 2>propaganda 24 hours a day on the networks that make

0:05:11.510 --> 0:05:14.349
<v Speaker 2>no money. Somehow they stay in existence. I don't know

0:05:14.390 --> 0:05:16.659
<v Speaker 2>how they pay their bills because there's no money coming in.

0:05:16.690 --> 0:05:18.549
<v Speaker 2>No one watches that grab anymore anyway.

0:05:18.570 --> 0:05:19.089
<v Speaker 5>It's garbage.

0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:25.100
<v Speaker 1>I guess what got me very upset, and maybe it's me,

0:05:25.180 --> 0:05:26.460
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's my upbringing.

0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:28.660
<v Speaker 3>Really, I'm serious.

0:05:30.660 --> 0:05:33.770
<v Speaker 1>When you start lying about a president wanting to nuke

0:05:34.470 --> 0:05:39.750
<v Speaker 1>his own people and take out entire cities, and you're

0:05:39.810 --> 0:05:44.150
<v Speaker 1>terrorizing your own population to do that, to interfere in

0:05:44.170 --> 0:05:46.849
<v Speaker 1>the election and to vote against them or try to

0:05:46.890 --> 0:05:48.840
<v Speaker 1>push for when they do, if they do win, to

0:05:49.980 --> 0:05:53.520
<v Speaker 1>overthrow him from power through impeachment or the 25th Amendment.

0:05:54.700 --> 0:05:58.750
<v Speaker 1>To me, they've crossed a line that can never be crossed.

0:06:00.210 --> 0:06:01.150
<v Speaker 3>Am I wrong, Jeff?

0:06:02.310 --> 0:06:06.390
<v Speaker 2>You're 100% right. But when there's no repercussions for them

0:06:06.470 --> 0:06:10.180
<v Speaker 2>crossing that line on a daily basis, or for that matter,

0:06:10.310 --> 0:06:14.320
<v Speaker 2>every single hour of every minute of every day, nothing

0:06:14.380 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 2>is going to change. And the fact of the matter

0:06:16.100 --> 0:06:19.300
<v Speaker 2>is you constantly say they hate Donald Trump this much.

0:06:19.540 --> 0:06:21.580
<v Speaker 2>Do you think when Donald Trump goes away.

0:06:22.020 --> 0:06:22.860
<v Speaker 5>They're going to change?

0:06:22.940 --> 0:06:24.320
<v Speaker 2>No, it'll be a new boogeyman.

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 5>It'll be J.D.

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:26.900
<v Speaker 8>Vance is terrible.

0:06:28.180 --> 0:06:30.560
<v Speaker 2>This has nothing to do with Donald Trump. This has

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.750
<v Speaker 2>everything to do with power-hungry Democrats trying to take our

0:06:33.810 --> 0:06:37.390
<v Speaker 2>freedoms away on a daily basis and cause chaos and

0:06:38.029 --> 0:06:41.190
<v Speaker 2>despair in this country. It's time we shut the welfare

0:06:41.230 --> 0:06:44.529
<v Speaker 2>system off, get these people back to work. Enough is enough.

0:06:44.950 --> 0:06:45.490
<v Speaker 7>I've had it.

0:06:46.230 --> 0:06:50.390

<v Speaker 1>and Mika. So you had CNN running wild. You had

<v Speaker 1>ABC News running wild. Good Morning America with Stephanopoulos, that fraud.

0:07:19.930 --> 0:07:24.510
<v Speaker 1>Listen now to Morning Joe. Roll cut for Mike.

0:07:26.670 --> 0:07:30.470
<v Speaker 7>President Trump last night in Nebraska, just casually calling for

0:07:30.490 --> 0:07:34.830
<v Speaker 7>Iran to attack two of the most populous cities in

0:07:34.870 --> 0:07:36.150
<v Speaker 7>the United States, Joe.

0:07:36.410 --> 0:07:40.570
<v Speaker 9>There will be some, oh, he's just joking. He's just, well, okay, well, great.

0:07:40.670 --> 0:07:46.100
<v Speaker 9>Tell me then, please, what other American president in our history,

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:52.020
<v Speaker 9>post-Civil War, have called for the destruction of entire cities?

0:07:52.260 --> 0:07:52.700
<v Speaker 5>Joking.

0:07:52.980 --> 0:07:56.610
<v Speaker 9>We're talking about the president of the United States Talking

0:07:56.670 --> 0:08:00.650
<v Speaker 9>about the obliteration of San Diego and Los Angeles as

0:08:00.690 --> 0:08:01.310
<v Speaker 9>a joke?

0:08:02.610 --> 0:08:02.870
<v Speaker 7>Okay.

0:08:03.410 --> 0:08:05.980
<v Speaker 1>I want to play the cut one more time. Not

0:08:06.020 --> 0:08:08.120
<v Speaker 1>these idiots. What Trump said.

0:08:08.820 --> 0:08:09.000
<v Speaker 9>Now.

0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:13.119
<v Speaker 3>Number one, he's not calling for L.A.

0:08:13.260 --> 0:08:18.010
<v Speaker 1>And San Diego to be incinerated, to be obliterated by

0:08:18.070 --> 0:08:20.890
<v Speaker 1>Iran in some kind of a nuclear attack. But I

0:08:20.930 --> 0:08:24.070
<v Speaker 1>want you to listen again. Where was he joking? Remember,

0:08:24.090 --> 0:08:26.610
<v Speaker 1>I told you now. See, they're like, well, he's calling

0:08:26.650 --> 0:08:29.500
<v Speaker 1>for these two cities to be nuked. Well, OK, because

0:08:29.510 --> 0:08:33.439
<v Speaker 1>the tape so obviously shows they're lying when they say that. OK, well,

0:08:33.500 --> 0:08:37.569
<v Speaker 1>he was joking about it. And, you know, who the

0:08:37.710 --> 0:08:41.330
<v Speaker 1>hell jokes about that? The man is sick. The man

0:08:41.390 --> 0:08:48.000
<v Speaker 1>is bringing the 25th Amendment. He's mentally ill. So, here

0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:50.370
<v Speaker 1>is Trump in Nebraska.

0:08:51.530 --> 0:08:52.230
<v Speaker 3>This is him.

0:08:52.510 --> 0:08:55.309
<v Speaker 1>Again, I don't want to play the cut before where

0:08:55.330 --> 0:08:58.390
<v Speaker 1>he's talking about high gas prices and it's a small

0:08:58.470 --> 0:09:01.540
<v Speaker 1>price to pay, but that's what he's saying. And he said, look,

0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:04.559
<v Speaker 1>I had to launch this war. I had to prevent

0:09:04.700 --> 0:09:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Iran from getting nuclear weapons. So he hammers that point.

0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:15.069
<v Speaker 1>And then he says this. Roll cut 1A, Mike.

0:09:18.750 --> 0:09:20.010
<v Speaker 3>With the war, it's just artificial.

0:09:20.090 --> 0:09:20.890
<v Speaker 7>It's a little bit high.

0:09:21.380 --> 0:09:24.730
<v Speaker 8>It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe,

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:25.949
<v Speaker 8>keeping our country safe.

0:09:25.970 --> 0:09:27.179
<v Speaker 3>They can take out a city.

0:09:27.870 --> 0:09:29.750
<v Speaker 2>Let them take.

0:09:29.650 --> 0:09:33.770
<v Speaker 3>Out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. This

0:09:33.990 --> 0:09:36.090
<v Speaker 3>is a very small price to pay.

0:09:36.750 --> 0:09:38.230
<v Speaker 7>And it's going to be over very soon.

0:09:38.270 --> 0:09:40.170
<v Speaker 2>It's essentially almost over with.

0:09:40.809 --> 0:09:42.870
<v Speaker 7>And they might keep going a little long, you know.

0:09:42.890 --> 0:09:45.110
<v Speaker 3>They always say they have a big threshold for paying.

0:09:45.130 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 3>They need it, let me tell you. They need it.

0:09:47.570 --> 0:09:48.950
<v Speaker 7>But it's going to end very soon.

0:09:49.650 --> 0:09:51.150
<v Speaker 3>And it'll end one way or the other.

0:09:52.390 --> 0:09:55.940
<v Speaker 1>Is he joking about nuking or that Iran should nuke

0:09:56.360 --> 0:09:57.929
<v Speaker 1>San Diego or Los Angeles?

0:09:59.490 --> 0:09:59.750
<v Speaker 5>I just.

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:01.620
<v Speaker 3>I played you the cut.

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:06.290
<v Speaker 1>I even played more going further from the two sentences

0:10:06.309 --> 0:10:10.390
<v Speaker 1>they're ripping out of context. So you've heard the whole

0:10:10.470 --> 0:10:14.309
<v Speaker 1>thing and then about a sentence or two afterwards. Does

0:10:14.350 --> 0:10:19.440
<v Speaker 1>this man sound like he's joking? Now, Sandy made to

0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:22.490
<v Speaker 1>me a very, very interesting point while we were off air.

0:10:23.390 --> 0:10:26.070
<v Speaker 1>She said, you know, Jeff, I'm starting to get the sense.

0:10:27.510 --> 0:10:29.570
<v Speaker 1>And she says, I'm not defending them. Quite the contrary.

0:10:29.610 --> 0:10:32.790
<v Speaker 1>She has nothing but contempt for them. But her point is,

0:10:33.790 --> 0:10:39.760
<v Speaker 1>it's now they're starting to believe their own BS. That

0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:42.920
<v Speaker 1>they so hate him, this, you know, Trump derangement syndrome.

0:10:43.980 --> 0:10:46.570
<v Speaker 1>that now it's almost like they can't help themselves. It's

0:10:46.590 --> 0:10:51.230
<v Speaker 1>like the rot and the corruption, their moral corruption, their

0:10:51.250 --> 0:10:54.949
<v Speaker 1>intellectual corruption, their professional corruption has.

0:10:54.809 --> 0:10:56.410
<v Speaker 3>Now gone so deep.

0:10:57.820 --> 0:11:02.260
<v Speaker 1>That they almost think that they're telling the truth because

0:11:02.300 --> 0:11:06.000
<v Speaker 1>they just hate him so much. So everything he says,

0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:07.160
<v Speaker 1>they take out of context.

0:11:07.220 --> 0:11:08.160
<v Speaker 3>It's by habit now.

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Everything he says, they distort. Everything that he says, they

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:17.840
<v Speaker 1>twist and manipulate and lie. And so they just, after

0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:21.700
<v Speaker 1>a while, it's just become second nature that they don't

0:11:21.740 --> 0:11:24.380
<v Speaker 1>even notice that they're doing it because all they know

0:11:24.420 --> 0:11:27.740
<v Speaker 1>how to do now is lie about this man because

0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:33.199
<v Speaker 1>they're so invested in hating him. They can't imagine reporting

0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the truth about him because it just, it goes against

0:11:36.140 --> 0:11:40.179
<v Speaker 1>everything in their nature now. and the monsters that they've become.

0:11:42.700 --> 0:11:49.510
<v Speaker 1>It's a very, very interesting point. Okay, text line 7047070470. Dave,

0:11:49.670 --> 0:11:58.910
<v Speaker 1>our Western PA constitutionalist correspondent out in the Pittsburgh area, says, Jeff,

0:11:59.070 --> 0:12:02.869
<v Speaker 1>I'll give you the problem in a nutshell. The media

0:12:03.410 --> 0:12:05.610
<v Speaker 1>have no shame.

0:12:06.890 --> 0:12:09.740
<v Speaker 3>That's true. And no sense of truth.

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:20.240
<v Speaker 1>No sense of professional responsibility or professional obligation. I mean,

0:12:20.300 --> 0:12:25.400
<v Speaker 1>it's just the corruption now. It's out of control. And

0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:28.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't just mean the material corruption, the moral corruption,

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:31.020
<v Speaker 1>the professional corruption, the intellectual corruption.

0:12:32.380 --> 0:12:39.200
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, 617-266-6868. I want to just one more. This is

0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:39.640
<v Speaker 3>from 781.

0:12:39.620 --> 0:12:48.420
<v Speaker 1>Jeff, this is another find people on both sides hoax.

0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:54.890
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are like children who think we really are stupid.

0:12:55.830 --> 0:13:00.770
<v Speaker 1>Most people know exactly what Trump meant. The Democrats make

0:13:00.830 --> 0:13:04.790
<v Speaker 1>themselves look even more stupid by trying to make an

0:13:04.910 --> 0:13:07.990
<v Speaker 1>issue of this. So let me throw this super quick

0:13:08.030 --> 0:13:13.330
<v Speaker 1>log on the fire. Is the media now making themselves

0:13:13.390 --> 0:13:19.650
<v Speaker 1>look even more silly, more stupid, as the texter put it,

0:13:20.390 --> 0:13:28.819
<v Speaker 1>more desperate, more contemptible, and more unprofessional by pushing this Iran,

0:13:28.860 --> 0:13:32.540
<v Speaker 1>you know, Trump wants Iran to nuke LA and San

0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:33.460
<v Speaker 1>Diego hoax?

0:13:34.500 --> 0:13:35.220
<v Speaker 3>I'm just curious.

0:13:37.070 --> 0:13:40.710
<v Speaker 1>Is this now going to damage the media even more?

0:13:41.750 --> 0:13:44.190
<v Speaker 1>I know you thought they couldn't go any lower. Well,

0:13:44.210 --> 0:13:49.150
<v Speaker 1>they've just gone even lower. And number two, do the

0:13:49.190 --> 0:13:54.750
<v Speaker 1>Democrats truly believe we're that stupid? That the country would

0:13:54.850 --> 0:13:56.689
<v Speaker 1>fall for something like this?

0:13:59.910 --> 0:14:00.579
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry.

0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:03.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to be insulting. I'm just calling it

0:14:03.340 --> 0:14:07.059
<v Speaker 1>the way I see it. You hear Bill in Sudbury

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:10.620
<v Speaker 1>when he calls in. You hear Chris in Gloucester. You

0:14:10.660 --> 0:14:14.210
<v Speaker 1>hear Ben in North Andover. You hear the Moonbats. I'm

0:14:14.260 --> 0:14:16.970
<v Speaker 1>sure you have a lot of liberal Democrat Moonbat friends.

0:14:18.010 --> 0:14:20.110
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you, do you think they believe this?

0:14:21.390 --> 0:14:23.540
<v Speaker 1>You think they believe now the spin and the lies

0:14:23.580 --> 0:14:27.720
<v Speaker 1>from the media? Because I was on social media last night,

0:14:27.780 --> 0:14:30.040
<v Speaker 1>and I'm telling you, millions and millions and millions of

0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:32.730
<v Speaker 1>Democrats don't just believe it.

0:14:33.350 --> 0:14:36.710
<v Speaker 3>They're losing their hair. Their hair is on fire over this.

0:14:38.310 --> 0:14:41.690
<v Speaker 1>So there is clearly a large segment of the American

0:14:41.750 --> 0:14:46.750
<v Speaker 1>population that are like children and will fall for any

0:14:46.830 --> 0:14:50.930
<v Speaker 1>hoax or any lie, no matter how incredible, crazed, or

0:14:51.030 --> 0:14:55.180
<v Speaker 1>outrageous it is about Trump. And I think that's why

0:14:55.240 --> 0:15:01.580
<v Speaker 1>they do it, because for their base, it works. Agree, disagree.

0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Marilyn in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding, Marilyn, and welcome.

0:15:08.730 --> 0:15:12.090
<v Speaker 6>I just had one sentence to say.

0:15:12.270 --> 0:15:12.510
<v Speaker 7>Yes.

0:15:12.830 --> 0:15:21.620
<v Speaker 6>And that's if President Trump actually said the wrongful claim

0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:27.220
<v Speaker 6>of today, We would not be here to hear it

0:15:27.900 --> 0:15:29.320
<v Speaker 6>because we were nuked.

0:15:34.930 --> 0:15:39.070
<v Speaker 3>That's a touché. That's a very, that is a very,

0:15:39.170 --> 0:15:42.500
<v Speaker 3>very good point. No, you're right. I mean, that's a very,

0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:45.590
<v Speaker 3>I mean, think of it that way. If he really

0:15:45.650 --> 0:15:49.050
<v Speaker 3>wanted L.A. and San Diego nuked, you know, he'd go

0:15:49.100 --> 0:15:51.520
<v Speaker 3>to the mullahs. Wink, wink.

0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:58.380
<v Speaker 1>Guys, you know, take out Southern California. You know, Marilyn,

0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:00.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you saw the story, but it

0:16:00.820 --> 0:16:02.540
<v Speaker 1>may have been a month ago. I mean, don't quote

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:06.420
<v Speaker 1>me on this. Maybe even two months ago. But Iran

0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:10.580
<v Speaker 1>had ships. I'm not saying off the coast of California.

0:16:10.780 --> 0:16:15.110
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't that close. But they had several ships. potentially

0:16:15.190 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 1>within missile range of Los Angeles, San Diego, Southern California,

0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:29.470
<v Speaker 1>that whole area. And our Navy beat them back. In

0:16:29.510 --> 0:16:31.030
<v Speaker 1>other words, they said, no, no, I don't know what

0:16:31.050 --> 0:16:33.890
<v Speaker 1>these people are up to. And obviously they weren't going

0:16:33.910 --> 0:16:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to nuke them, but maybe launch a conventional missile. Trump

0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:42.630
<v Speaker 1>beat back several ships from Iran that were potentially within

0:16:42.730 --> 0:16:47.990
<v Speaker 1>missile range of California. And yet these morons think that

0:16:48.050 --> 0:16:51.790
<v Speaker 1>he wants them nuked when he doesn't even want them

0:16:51.830 --> 0:16:53.850
<v Speaker 1>to launch a missile into California?

0:16:54.630 --> 0:16:55.850
<v Speaker 3>Final word to you, Marilyn.

0:16:59.530 --> 0:17:00.710
<v Speaker 2>Oh, oh, oh, me.

0:17:00.830 --> 0:17:04.210
<v Speaker 6>Well, I said what I said. You know, in other words,

0:17:04.730 --> 0:17:09.189
<v Speaker 6>they've exaggerated things. Way beyond belief.

0:17:10.210 --> 0:17:10.609
<v Speaker 7>I agree.

0:17:11.700 --> 0:17:12.199
<v Speaker 3>I agree.

0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:15.399
<v Speaker 1>It's becoming almost laughable. I mean, it's almost now like

0:17:15.420 --> 0:17:18.370
<v Speaker 1>you just point your finger and you just start laughing. Like,

0:17:18.390 --> 0:17:22.919
<v Speaker 1>you just, like, just, really? And you just start pounding

0:17:22.940 --> 0:17:26.840
<v Speaker 1>your fist on the table laughing. Marilyn, thank you very,

0:17:26.900 --> 0:17:28.060
<v Speaker 1>very much for that call.

0:17:28.580 --> 0:17:33.030
<v Speaker 10>I was horrified that the president would basically say that

0:17:33.090 --> 0:17:37.830
<v Speaker 10>another country is perfectly fine to take out or to

0:17:37.910 --> 0:17:41.669
<v Speaker 10>attack our city and our sister city two hours away,

0:17:42.210 --> 0:17:44.929
<v Speaker 10>that the role of the president is to protect and

0:17:44.970 --> 0:17:47.120
<v Speaker 10>defend the American people.

0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:50.889
<v Speaker 3>He went to war with Iran, and he.

0:17:51.369 --> 0:17:55.389
<v Speaker 10>Basically said it's OK that it's a small price to

0:17:55.450 --> 0:18:01.800
<v Speaker 10>pay to attack 3.8 million people in the nation's second-largest city.

0:18:02.240 --> 0:18:08.310
<v Speaker 3>I was horrified by those comments. You know the expression,

0:18:08.350 --> 0:18:15.010
<v Speaker 3>you can't fix stupid? That's L.A. Mayor Karen Bass. He

0:18:15.050 --> 0:18:19.150
<v Speaker 3>wants Iran to knock us. How dare.

0:18:22.090 --> 0:18:22.470
<v Speaker 7>He?

0:18:22.470 --> 0:18:28.050
<v Speaker 1>750 on the great WRKO, Jeff Kuhner, Boston's bulldozer. So

0:18:28.290 --> 0:18:33.689
<v Speaker 1>another day, another media manufactured hoax. This one is the

0:18:33.730 --> 0:18:39.520
<v Speaker 1>mother of all hoaxes. Trump apparently wants the Iranians to

0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:44.460
<v Speaker 1>drop nukes on LA and San Diego, because according to them,

0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:48.460
<v Speaker 1>that's a small price to pay to ultimately win the war.

0:18:49.200 --> 0:18:55.720
<v Speaker 1>And liberals and moonbats genuinely believe that that's what Trump said.

0:18:55.720 --> 0:19:02.360
<v Speaker 3>70470, if you want to text the.

0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:09.290
<v Speaker 1>Coonerman, 617-266-6868, if you want to be part of the show. Okay,

0:19:09.350 --> 0:19:11.770
<v Speaker 1>lines are blazing. I'm just going to do one more text,

0:19:11.850 --> 0:19:13.850
<v Speaker 1>and I want to go to the phones. And I

0:19:13.910 --> 0:19:16.540
<v Speaker 1>think this baby hits it right on the nail, hits

0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:17.580
<v Speaker 1>the nail right on the head.

0:19:17.580 --> 0:19:18.520
<v Speaker 3>603, Jeff.

0:19:21.980 --> 0:19:26.199
<v Speaker 1>First off, the false narrative that the mainstream media is

0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:31.600
<v Speaker 1>pushing doesn't even remotely line up with the context of

0:19:31.859 --> 0:19:36.680
<v Speaker 1>anything Trump was saying in that speech. In fact, their

0:19:36.850 --> 0:19:41.250
<v Speaker 1>lie is the exact opposite of what he was saying.

0:19:42.270 --> 0:19:45.010
<v Speaker 1>And you'd have to have the mentality of a third

0:19:45.090 --> 0:19:49.130
<v Speaker 1>grader not to pick up on that. But the leftist

0:19:49.190 --> 0:19:54.440
<v Speaker 1>media knows they have a core audience largely made up.

0:19:54.500 --> 0:19:58.600
<v Speaker 3>Of two types of people. One type who are.

0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:04.810
<v Speaker 1>Incredibly gullible and will believe anything the leftist media tells them.

0:20:05.840 --> 0:20:10.859
<v Speaker 1>For me, that's Bill and Sudbury. That, to me, is

0:20:11.220 --> 0:20:17.290
<v Speaker 1>classic Bill and Sudbury. But 603 continues. And the other type,

0:20:17.850 --> 0:20:23.150
<v Speaker 1>who are inherently dishonest, that will latch on to any

0:20:23.380 --> 0:20:28.280
<v Speaker 1>cunningly crafted lie and run with it to further their

0:20:28.359 --> 0:20:35.750
<v Speaker 1>political cause. Trump, or anyone for that matter... would need

0:20:35.970 --> 0:20:41.600
<v Speaker 1>a full-time staff of speechwriters working 24 hours a day

0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:47.560
<v Speaker 1>to pour over every last word and phrase in an

0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:51.419
<v Speaker 1>attempt to come up with every conceivable angle that a

0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:55.620
<v Speaker 1>deceptive mind could think of to twist their words into

0:20:55.680 --> 0:21:00.070
<v Speaker 1>saying something else, which is utterly impossible because there are

0:21:00.130 --> 0:21:03.980
<v Speaker 1>endless possibilities in ways words could be twisted. We on

0:21:04.020 --> 0:21:08.219
<v Speaker 1>the right are held to the high standard of truth,

0:21:09.200 --> 0:21:11.859
<v Speaker 1>and thus we have a very narrow path that we

0:21:11.900 --> 0:21:16.990
<v Speaker 1>can walk. But those who peddle in deceptions have a

0:21:17.250 --> 0:21:22.230
<v Speaker 1>very wide path of lies from which they can navigate.

0:21:23.350 --> 0:21:27.170
<v Speaker 1>You know, this is very true. And then 603 finishes

0:21:27.230 --> 0:21:31.409
<v Speaker 1>by saying, we have to say what is factual. but

0:21:31.450 --> 0:21:35.590
<v Speaker 1>they can literally say anything under the sun. It's a

0:21:35.690 --> 0:21:39.510
<v Speaker 1>frustrating thing to have to deal with, but I'd still

0:21:39.590 --> 0:21:41.790
<v Speaker 1>rather have the truth on our side.

0:21:42.130 --> 0:21:42.470
<v Speaker 3>Bingo.

0:21:43.590 --> 0:21:46.560
<v Speaker 1>We have the truth on our side, and that's why

0:21:46.630 --> 0:21:50.760
<v Speaker 1>we walk a much narrower path. But when you peddle lies,

0:21:51.380 --> 0:21:54.859
<v Speaker 1>and that's what the left does, the Democratic Party is

0:21:55.000 --> 0:21:58.859
<v Speaker 1>one big lie, the so-called media, which is the communications

0:21:58.940 --> 0:22:03.600
<v Speaker 1>propaganda arm, of the Democratic Party is one big lie.

0:22:04.700 --> 0:22:08.600
<v Speaker 1>So when you peddle lies, you can say pretty much anything.

0:22:09.940 --> 0:22:13.680
<v Speaker 1>And to me, what they're doing now with Trump, with

0:22:13.720 --> 0:22:18.959
<v Speaker 1>this so-called Nuke LA San Diego hoax, it may be

0:22:19.020 --> 0:22:22.940
<v Speaker 1>the biggest lie of all. And they've told some real

0:22:23.010 --> 0:22:29.150
<v Speaker 1>whoppers over the years. Bruce in Woburn. Thanks for holding, Bruce,

0:22:29.630 --> 0:22:41.379
<v Speaker 1>and welcome. Oh, they're out in full force today, Bruce. Oh,

0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:47.379
<v Speaker 1>they're everywhere. Bruce, you heard what Trump said. Was he

0:22:47.440 --> 0:22:51.430
<v Speaker 1>calling for San Diego and Los Angeles to be obliterated

0:22:51.490 --> 0:22:55.270
<v Speaker 1>by Iran? Or was he saying the very opposite?

0:22:55.410 --> 0:22:55.949
<v Speaker 3>What say you?

0:22:57.420 --> 0:22:59.840
<v Speaker 5>Well, I don't want to get kicked off the air

0:23:00.180 --> 0:23:08.250
<v Speaker 5>anyways by saying that Bass is an ass. Is that good?

0:23:08.710 --> 0:23:09.750
<v Speaker 3>That's fine, Bruce.

0:23:10.830 --> 0:23:14.950
<v Speaker 5>All right, thank you. Now, just look back. Look back

0:23:15.030 --> 0:23:20.330
<v Speaker 5>in history. What they did with George Floyd, Michael Brown,

0:23:20.990 --> 0:23:24.919
<v Speaker 5>and causing all the riots and all the... All the

0:23:24.980 --> 0:23:29.550
<v Speaker 5>destruction and the burnings and the police stations and all

0:23:29.590 --> 0:23:35.290
<v Speaker 5>the stuff that they've incited, Jeff. Not to mention all

0:23:35.330 --> 0:23:40.750
<v Speaker 5>the attempted assassinations on our president because of them. The

0:23:40.830 --> 0:23:47.860
<v Speaker 5>raiding of Mar-a-Lago because of them. They've backed all these...

0:23:48.080 --> 0:23:51.580
<v Speaker 5>I mean, how can they get away with this stuff, Jeff?

0:23:52.400 --> 0:23:53.140
<v Speaker 5>And now we got.

0:23:56.109 --> 0:23:59.630
<v Speaker 5>You know, they're trying to make us all, like, we

0:23:59.690 --> 0:24:02.670
<v Speaker 5>hate all Muslims. No, we don't. We hate the ones

0:24:02.710 --> 0:24:06.050
<v Speaker 5>that want to kill us. Just like the guy that

0:24:06.090 --> 0:24:11.510
<v Speaker 5>tried to crash the airplane. They turn everything around. They lie,

0:24:11.570 --> 0:24:15.990
<v Speaker 5>they lie, they lie. Like the Bills in Sudbury. Like,

0:24:17.390 --> 0:24:23.030
<v Speaker 5>what's his name there? Christian Gloucester. It's just unbelievable that

0:24:23.450 --> 0:24:28.969
<v Speaker 5>you fall for... this crap, these lies. And look at

0:24:29.210 --> 0:24:35.650
<v Speaker 5>poor Charlie Kirk. Those people were incited by the media.

0:24:38.320 --> 0:24:42.859
<v Speaker 5>I mean, come on, Jeff. We have a great country.

0:24:43.260 --> 0:24:46.380
<v Speaker 5>We have great people in this country. But there are

0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:49.980
<v Speaker 5>people that should be in an insane asylum, and they're

0:24:50.040 --> 0:24:54.560
<v Speaker 5>basically running the prisons. Look at what they did with

0:24:54.720 --> 0:24:59.060
<v Speaker 5>ICE and all the attacks that they made on ICE.

0:24:59.859 --> 0:25:03.980
<v Speaker 5>And they were doing their job. And people need to

0:25:04.020 --> 0:25:08.679
<v Speaker 5>just go lay down. If you don't want to stand

0:25:08.740 --> 0:25:12.830
<v Speaker 5>up for this country, get out of it. Just leave.

0:25:13.200 --> 0:25:14.010
<v Speaker 5>We don't need you.

0:25:16.130 --> 0:25:21.650
<v Speaker 1>Bruce, very powerfully said. Very powerfully said, Bruce. Bruce, thank

0:25:21.690 --> 0:25:24.640
<v Speaker 1>you very, very much for that call. You know, look,

0:25:25.500 --> 0:25:29.379
<v Speaker 1>I want to ask all of you, is it time

0:25:29.500 --> 0:25:37.730
<v Speaker 1>to restore the Smith-Montact? Should ABC, CNN, MSNOW, should they

0:25:37.790 --> 0:25:42.850
<v Speaker 1>have their licenses revoked? Should the so-called, and I'm using

0:25:42.890 --> 0:25:47.370
<v Speaker 1>this very loosely in air quotes, journalists, they're propagandists, but

0:25:47.410 --> 0:25:50.980
<v Speaker 1>they masquerade as journalists. Should the, you know, should people

0:25:51.020 --> 0:25:55.510
<v Speaker 1>like George Stephanopoulos and Martha Raddatz and Joe Scarborough and

0:25:55.550 --> 0:25:59.890
<v Speaker 1>Mika Brzezinski and Anderson Cooper and Caitlin Collins. I could

0:25:59.930 --> 0:26:01.780
<v Speaker 1>go on, but those are the people that were peddling

0:26:01.820 --> 0:26:06.060
<v Speaker 1>this hoax up and down yesterday, feeding it to the

0:26:06.100 --> 0:26:10.660
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party. Should they lose their jobs over this? Should

0:26:10.700 --> 0:26:14.580
<v Speaker 1>there be consequences? In other words, what do we do

0:26:14.740 --> 0:26:18.800
<v Speaker 1>to rein in now? This is not even fake news anymore.

0:26:20.369 --> 0:26:30.600
<v Speaker 1>This is an out-of-control propaganda that is designed to frighten

0:26:30.820 --> 0:26:36.639
<v Speaker 1>and terrorize the American people with no connection to reality

0:26:36.740 --> 0:26:43.080
<v Speaker 1>or the truth whatsoever. What do we do to rein

0:26:43.100 --> 0:26:50.570
<v Speaker 1>in this out-of-control democratic media? Or are we just destined

0:26:50.609 --> 0:26:54.149
<v Speaker 1>to just let them continue to peddle their poison and

0:26:54.170 --> 0:26:59.330
<v Speaker 1>their lies and just keep poisoning people's minds and poisoning

0:26:59.369 --> 0:27:04.570
<v Speaker 1>their hearts? Should there be consequences? Should people be fired?

0:27:05.109 --> 0:27:10.850
<v Speaker 1>Should licenses be revoked? Should the Smith-Montag be restored? What

0:27:10.890 --> 0:27:16.450
<v Speaker 1>do we do to finally end this? Because there's going

0:27:16.490 --> 0:27:20.240
<v Speaker 1>to be no end in sight. And or are we

0:27:20.300 --> 0:27:23.639
<v Speaker 1>just going to have to live with the so-called, and

0:27:23.660 --> 0:27:26.500
<v Speaker 1>I'm putting it in air quotes, media that can just

0:27:26.619 --> 0:27:31.400
<v Speaker 1>make stuff up and lie and lie and lie with

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:40.129
<v Speaker 1>no repercussions or consequences whatsoever? 617-266-6868 is the number.

0:27:40.790 --> 0:27:45.490
<v Speaker 3>Pete in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding, Pete, and welcome.

0:27:47.890 --> 0:27:51.649
<v Speaker 7>I've loved you and Trump in the morning. I've loved

0:27:51.690 --> 0:27:54.869
<v Speaker 7>you and Trump in the afternoon. I've loved you and

0:27:54.950 --> 0:28:01.220
<v Speaker 7>Trump at night in a non-sexual way. I'm starting to

0:28:01.280 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 7>worry about you, Cooner.

0:28:02.880 --> 0:28:04.359
<v Speaker 3>Okay, now go ahead. Why, Pete?

0:28:06.859 --> 0:28:09.680
<v Speaker 7>You can't see the real problem.

0:28:11.940 --> 0:28:13.520
<v Speaker 3>And what's the real problem, Pete?

0:28:16.320 --> 0:28:22.540
<v Speaker 7>Our president is the one destroying cities really in real

0:28:22.660 --> 0:28:29.449
<v Speaker 7>time by bombing innocent people in Tehran and threatening the

0:28:29.530 --> 0:28:35.670
<v Speaker 7>very existence of this country with a war we already

0:28:35.730 --> 0:28:39.650
<v Speaker 7>lost and cannot win. Our only hope is that somebody

0:28:39.730 --> 0:28:45.780
<v Speaker 7>tells him Pull everybody out, quit fighting wars with and

0:28:45.900 --> 0:28:50.010
<v Speaker 7>for Israel. It's going to destroy this country if he

0:28:50.030 --> 0:28:52.790
<v Speaker 7>does it. What do you think of that, Cooner, man?

0:28:53.090 --> 0:28:57.110
<v Speaker 1>Well, Pete, you've made that point many times, and we've

0:28:57.150 --> 0:29:00.730
<v Speaker 1>had that debate. But, you know, Pete, to me, this

0:29:00.790 --> 0:29:03.470
<v Speaker 1>is a different story now. We're not talking about whether

0:29:03.510 --> 0:29:06.690
<v Speaker 1>you're for the war or against the war or what

0:29:06.750 --> 0:29:09.230
<v Speaker 1>drove us into the war or whether we can win

0:29:09.270 --> 0:29:11.740
<v Speaker 1>the war. Although I have to tell you, if you

0:29:11.780 --> 0:29:15.600
<v Speaker 1>look at the Iranian economy, they're cracking. The Strait of Hormuz,

0:29:15.620 --> 0:29:17.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you've been noticing, but now oil

0:29:18.000 --> 0:29:21.120
<v Speaker 1>is getting out. The Strait of Hormuz now has pretty

0:29:21.160 --> 0:29:25.020
<v Speaker 1>much been reopened. Iran has lost a lot of their leverage.

0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:29.750
<v Speaker 1>And if Trump goes in for the kill after the midterms,

0:29:30.550 --> 0:29:34.150
<v Speaker 1>you know, with already protests are breaking out in Iran,

0:29:34.950 --> 0:29:36.350
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if the regime is going to hang

0:29:36.450 --> 0:29:40.430
<v Speaker 1>on much longer. So this idea that we've lost the war,

0:29:40.450 --> 0:29:43.940
<v Speaker 1>I would beg to differ, but we can agree to disagree, Pete.

0:29:43.980 --> 0:29:44.800
<v Speaker 3>That's not the issue.

0:29:45.600 --> 0:29:49.440
<v Speaker 1>The issue is that the president said, now you can

0:29:49.500 --> 0:29:49.959
<v Speaker 1>say it.

0:29:49.960 --> 0:29:52.340
<v Speaker 3>Was the bad war. It was a wrong war. It

0:29:52.380 --> 0:29:55.540
<v Speaker 3>was a disastrous war. That's fine. We can agree to disagree.

0:29:56.420 --> 0:30:00.010
<v Speaker 1>But what the president said is, was that he went

0:30:00.050 --> 0:30:05.990
<v Speaker 1>to war to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons that

0:30:06.090 --> 0:30:12.190
<v Speaker 1>he believed posed an existential threat eventually to American cities, like,

0:30:12.250 --> 0:30:17.210
<v Speaker 1>for example, Los Angeles and San Diego. By the time

0:30:17.290 --> 0:30:22.360
<v Speaker 1>the media is done, they're saying or reporting, and I'm

0:30:22.390 --> 0:30:27.060
<v Speaker 1>putting reporting in air quotes, that Trump said he wants

0:30:27.300 --> 0:30:33.870
<v Speaker 1>Iran to annihilate, to nuke Los Angeles and San Diego.

0:30:35.130 --> 0:30:37.709
<v Speaker 1>And that when he talks about a small price to pay,

0:30:38.160 --> 0:30:42.660
<v Speaker 1>instead of talking about gas prices, he's really talking about

0:30:43.240 --> 0:30:50.180
<v Speaker 1>the mass murder and incineration, the obliteration of 10 million

0:30:50.220 --> 0:30:55.130
<v Speaker 1>people in Southern California. Now, my question to you, Pete,

0:30:55.950 --> 0:30:57.910
<v Speaker 1>the president did not say that.

0:30:58.950 --> 0:30:59.430
<v Speaker 3>He didn't.

0:31:01.170 --> 0:31:04.850
<v Speaker 1>Anybody with common sense knows exactly what he meant. You

0:31:04.870 --> 0:31:08.540
<v Speaker 1>may disagree with him. That's fine. But that's not what

0:31:08.560 --> 0:31:12.320
<v Speaker 1>he said. That's not what he meant. Everybody knows what

0:31:12.360 --> 0:31:15.440
<v Speaker 1>he said. Everybody knows what he meant. And yet the

0:31:15.520 --> 0:31:23.000
<v Speaker 1>media is repeating a lie, a grotesque lie. And sadly, many,

0:31:23.100 --> 0:31:28.959
<v Speaker 1>many people, many Americans, many Democrats believe it. It's media malpractice.

0:31:31.260 --> 0:31:33.780
<v Speaker 1>And in any other country, and I'm talking about, you know,

0:31:33.860 --> 0:31:38.320
<v Speaker 1>democracies around the world, they have slander laws on the books.

0:31:40.180 --> 0:31:45.160
<v Speaker 1>They would never repeat. Here, for example, The Guardian in Britain,

0:31:45.800 --> 0:31:48.810
<v Speaker 1>which is a British newspaper, far left wing, very much

0:31:48.870 --> 0:31:50.810
<v Speaker 1>against the Iran war, the way you are.

0:31:51.970 --> 0:31:52.770
<v Speaker 3>Came out with a.

0:31:52.770 --> 0:31:57.080
<v Speaker 1>Headline and said, it's not true that Trump was calling

0:31:57.160 --> 0:32:02.140
<v Speaker 1>for LA and San Diego to be nuked. Because in Britain,

0:32:02.260 --> 0:32:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Trump could potentially sue them if they said he wanted

0:32:06.060 --> 0:32:09.370
<v Speaker 1>LA and San Diego to be nuked. So they have

0:32:09.470 --> 0:32:12.310
<v Speaker 1>slander laws on the books. Frankly, I think that's why

0:32:12.350 --> 0:32:15.630
<v Speaker 1>their media is much more responsible in their reporting than

0:32:15.690 --> 0:32:19.730
<v Speaker 1>the garbage that we have here. So my question to you, Pete,

0:32:20.580 --> 0:32:26.830
<v Speaker 1>what do we do When our media deliberately, in a

0:32:27.090 --> 0:32:33.570
<v Speaker 1>cynical political way, I mean, keeps lying and deceiving us,

0:32:34.370 --> 0:32:38.370
<v Speaker 1>gaslighting us, if you want to call it, propagandizing us

0:32:39.330 --> 0:32:41.530
<v Speaker 1>every day, 24 hours a day, seven days a week,

0:32:41.530 --> 0:32:49.340
<v Speaker 1>365 days a year. Is there a certain point where we,

0:32:49.380 --> 0:32:53.840
<v Speaker 1>the American people, have to say enough is enough? A

0:32:53.900 --> 0:32:58.420
<v Speaker 1>broadcast license is a privilege. It's not a right. And

0:32:58.480 --> 0:33:02.590
<v Speaker 1>being a reporter or being a cable news channel is

0:33:02.630 --> 0:33:07.530
<v Speaker 1>a privilege. And now you're abusing that privilege because there

0:33:07.610 --> 0:33:10.710
<v Speaker 1>is no connection to reality or connection to the truth.

0:33:11.410 --> 0:33:12.000
<v Speaker 3>What say you?

0:33:14.580 --> 0:33:19.810
<v Speaker 7>What do we do when... Our president stands up in

0:33:20.050 --> 0:33:26.480
<v Speaker 7>front of the world and says he's going to destroy Tehran.

0:33:28.380 --> 0:33:32.380
<v Speaker 7>And then what do we do? Does these attacks lead

0:33:32.400 --> 0:33:38.370
<v Speaker 7>to Iran, who has the capability to destroy the world

0:33:38.830 --> 0:33:44.800
<v Speaker 7>oil industry in the Middle East and destroy Iran? We're

0:33:44.840 --> 0:33:49.720
<v Speaker 7>the biggest debtor and destroy this country by doing so.

0:33:50.540 --> 0:33:52.060
<v Speaker 7>He's messing with.

0:33:52.700 --> 0:33:56.660
<v Speaker 1>No, Pete, I understand. You've made that argument. Look, you

0:33:56.700 --> 0:34:00.830
<v Speaker 1>want to have another debate on the Iran war. I'm

0:34:00.910 --> 0:34:04.570
<v Speaker 1>asking about the media and their lies about Trump. So

0:34:05.010 --> 0:34:09.690
<v Speaker 1>this is a discussion for another time. Look, President Trump

0:34:09.969 --> 0:34:13.109
<v Speaker 1>will not drop a nuclear weapon today. He will not

0:34:13.160 --> 0:34:16.980
<v Speaker 1>drop a nuclear bomb on Iran. It's not going to happen.

0:34:18.540 --> 0:34:22.020
<v Speaker 1>And we'll see what happens after the midterms. But I'm

0:34:22.040 --> 0:34:26.180
<v Speaker 1>telling you, the Iranian economy is about to implode. And

0:34:26.239 --> 0:34:28.460
<v Speaker 1>if the Iranians were smart, they'd cut a deal with

0:34:28.500 --> 0:34:33.910
<v Speaker 1>President Trump. So we'll see what happens. But anyway, Pete,

0:34:33.950 --> 0:34:36.290
<v Speaker 1>thank you very much for that call. I appreciate it.

0:34:36.750 --> 0:34:38.950
<v Speaker 1>You see, this is the problem now, that people are

0:34:39.010 --> 0:34:43.049
<v Speaker 1>so blinded in their hatred for Trump or their opposition

0:34:43.110 --> 0:34:46.900
<v Speaker 1>to the war with Iran, that they're willing to look away,

0:34:47.040 --> 0:34:54.379
<v Speaker 1>excuse or tolerate, I mean, just blatant lies from the

0:34:54.440 --> 0:35:00.089
<v Speaker 1>media and when they're reporting what Trump said. And this is,

0:35:01.170 --> 0:35:06.989
<v Speaker 1>you know, look, a free society depends upon a free media. And,

0:35:07.010 --> 0:35:10.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, Trump has said this repeatedly. You know, the

0:35:10.520 --> 0:35:15.200
<v Speaker 1>media exists to hold people in power accountable. But when

0:35:15.239 --> 0:35:19.440
<v Speaker 1>the media now becomes nothing more than a mouthpiece for

0:35:19.560 --> 0:35:25.979
<v Speaker 1>one party, and they just irresponsibly make stuff up from,

0:35:26.000 --> 0:35:30.730
<v Speaker 1>you know, whole cloth, from thin air, and just, you know,

0:35:32.430 --> 0:35:36.710
<v Speaker 1>they're there to deceive and manipulate. You got a major

0:35:36.750 --> 0:35:37.710
<v Speaker 1>problem on your hands.

0:35:38.969 --> 0:35:43.740
<v Speaker 3>Am I wrong? John in Peabody. Thanks for holding, John,

0:35:44.219 --> 0:35:44.700
<v Speaker 3>and welcome.

0:35:46.500 --> 0:35:50.100
<v Speaker 8>The great and all-powerful Kunas. Can you hear me this.

0:35:50.120 --> 0:35:50.520
<v Speaker 5>Time, Jeff?

0:35:50.620 --> 0:35:52.450
<v Speaker 3>I can hear you loud and clear, John.

0:35:52.510 --> 0:35:52.969
<v Speaker 2>Go ahead.

0:35:53.010 --> 0:35:53.810
<v Speaker 3>The floor is yours.

0:35:55.310 --> 0:36:01.050
<v Speaker 8>Jeff, I'm sorry to say that this is the day

0:36:01.270 --> 0:36:04.760
<v Speaker 8>and age of the National Enquirer. They finally sold more

0:36:04.800 --> 0:36:09.870
<v Speaker 8>papers than the Boston Herald. Look, when you have a

0:36:09.930 --> 0:36:15.049
<v Speaker 8>president that's this tired, his second term around has not

0:36:15.090 --> 0:36:21.450
<v Speaker 8>been so successful, and you're 30 days less, 30 days less, actually,

0:36:21.770 --> 0:36:24.890
<v Speaker 8>of the midterms, you have to watch what you say.

0:36:25.730 --> 0:36:28.569
<v Speaker 8>I'm sorry, but, you know, you have things that are

0:36:28.590 --> 0:36:34.469
<v Speaker 8>going on. Your agenda is ongoing but not finished. Promises

0:36:34.530 --> 0:36:38.530
<v Speaker 8>made but undone. And like I said, you got short

0:36:38.590 --> 0:36:44.180
<v Speaker 8>days before the midterms. You just have to stop saying things.

0:36:44.280 --> 0:36:48.660
<v Speaker 8>How you spin it, sarcasm and whatnot, the media doesn't care.

0:36:49.320 --> 0:36:52.650
<v Speaker 8>When you're fueling the media, they're going to pounce. When

0:36:52.690 --> 0:36:55.310
<v Speaker 8>you throw chicken into a wolf pack, they're going to pounce.

0:36:55.810 --> 0:36:58.250
<v Speaker 8>And they want to. They want to make sure that

0:36:58.330 --> 0:37:02.210
<v Speaker 8>everything he says is a screw-up. They think he's old.

0:37:02.270 --> 0:37:04.870
<v Speaker 8>They think he's tired. They think he's just, you know,

0:37:05.230 --> 0:37:09.319
<v Speaker 8>he's mishandling his term. You just have to lay off.

0:37:09.739 --> 0:37:13.080
<v Speaker 8>You got to stop saying what you're saying and feeling

0:37:13.120 --> 0:37:16.540
<v Speaker 8>these people, because I'm sorry, I'm surrounded by more people

0:37:16.960 --> 0:37:21.239
<v Speaker 8>who are riding the moon, but have merry-go-round all around me.

0:37:21.989 --> 0:37:26.070
<v Speaker 8>There's very few people stand behind me. Did that stand

0:37:26.090 --> 0:37:27.730
<v Speaker 8>with this man about his agenda?

0:37:27.750 --> 0:37:28.630
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:37:29.750 --> 0:37:31.430
<v Speaker 8>Look at look at social media.

0:37:31.610 --> 0:37:32.370
<v Speaker 5>I can't even get on.

0:37:32.370 --> 0:37:37.569
<v Speaker 8>Facebook without reading lie after lie about everything. You know,

0:37:37.910 --> 0:37:42.400
<v Speaker 8>actors who died or just, you know, so many false stories.

0:37:42.660 --> 0:37:46.100
<v Speaker 8>It seems to be outdoing the facts. I grew up

0:37:46.180 --> 0:37:49.580
<v Speaker 8>and watching the news with just facts today. It's just

0:37:50.060 --> 0:37:53.310
<v Speaker 8>whatever catches someone's attention, whether it's a lie or not.

0:37:54.370 --> 0:37:57.470
<v Speaker 8>But it just, it stands to the fact that Trump

0:37:57.690 --> 0:38:01.489
<v Speaker 8>needs to basically stand back and stop saying what he's

0:38:01.530 --> 0:38:04.980
<v Speaker 8>saying to fuel this media because they seem to be

0:38:05.120 --> 0:38:10.680
<v Speaker 8>outdoing a lot more people who think logically like us.

0:38:12.020 --> 0:38:14.250
<v Speaker 8>So like I said, it doesn't matter how he spins it.

0:38:14.920 --> 0:38:17.930
<v Speaker 8>He just has to stop saying what he's saying. And

0:38:17.969 --> 0:38:20.850
<v Speaker 8>he's been warned about it. What say you?

0:38:21.270 --> 0:38:24.569
<v Speaker 1>Well, John, I mean, There is a way that he

0:38:24.610 --> 0:38:27.270
<v Speaker 1>could do all these rallies and put in these long

0:38:27.310 --> 0:38:30.129
<v Speaker 1>days at the White House. And that's if he just

0:38:30.290 --> 0:38:33.330
<v Speaker 1>reads the teleprompter. In other words, they've written a speech

0:38:33.370 --> 0:38:38.169
<v Speaker 1>for him and he just reads the speech. Then he's

0:38:38.210 --> 0:38:42.180
<v Speaker 1>not going to be riffing and ad-libbing. And it's usually

0:38:42.200 --> 0:38:45.670
<v Speaker 1>when he's riffing or ad-libbing. that that's when the media

0:38:45.710 --> 0:38:48.110
<v Speaker 1>pounces because, you know, if he says something in an

0:38:48.310 --> 0:38:52.350
<v Speaker 1>inartful way or in a bit of a sloppy way or,

0:38:52.810 --> 0:38:55.250
<v Speaker 1>you know, he doesn't, you know, a couple of words

0:38:55.290 --> 0:38:57.710
<v Speaker 1>don't come out of his mouth because he's tired and

0:38:58.140 --> 0:39:01.420
<v Speaker 1>he assumes the audience knows what he's talking about. That's

0:39:01.460 --> 0:39:03.339
<v Speaker 1>when they, you know, that's when they pounce, as you

0:39:03.380 --> 0:39:07.319
<v Speaker 1>put it. So, John, is part of it just he's

0:39:07.360 --> 0:39:10.070
<v Speaker 1>got to be more disciplined and They put a speech

0:39:10.120 --> 0:39:13.989
<v Speaker 1>in front of them. Just read the speech. Don't play

0:39:14.010 --> 0:39:18.469
<v Speaker 1>to the crowd. Don't ad lib. Don't riff. And if

0:39:18.510 --> 0:39:20.950
<v Speaker 1>you do that, you're fine. What say you?

0:39:22.750 --> 0:39:28.420
<v Speaker 8>Well, your point exactly, too, Jeff, to counter-respond. But it's

0:39:28.440 --> 0:39:30.680
<v Speaker 8>like I said, because it just happened to say a

0:39:30.719 --> 0:39:34.260
<v Speaker 8>year ago, maybe over a short period it would dilute,

0:39:35.200 --> 0:39:38.950
<v Speaker 8>and people would kind of override all of that, and

0:39:39.610 --> 0:39:44.070
<v Speaker 8>they'd get on with his agenda. But because it's so close,

0:39:45.170 --> 0:39:49.180
<v Speaker 8>and it's just like– It's like piranhas just waiting for

0:39:49.219 --> 0:39:53.200
<v Speaker 8>something to fall in the water. And I think it's

0:39:53.239 --> 0:39:55.460
<v Speaker 8>kind of dangerous for him because, like I said, with

0:39:55.480 --> 0:39:59.420
<v Speaker 8>this war still going on, and it's as potent as

0:39:59.440 --> 0:40:04.609
<v Speaker 8>this war is right now and so dangerous, I think it's... No,

0:40:04.660 --> 0:40:05.469
<v Speaker 8>I hear you.

0:40:05.489 --> 0:40:08.610
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's got to be very careful. And these are

0:40:08.670 --> 0:40:12.270
<v Speaker 1>unforced errors, and he's allowing the media now. He's giving

0:40:12.310 --> 0:40:14.970
<v Speaker 1>them an opening to attack them. I hear what you're saying.

0:40:15.870 --> 0:40:17.010
<v Speaker 3>Look, John.

0:40:17.860 --> 0:40:21.719
<v Speaker 1>This is the $ 64, 000 question now. Is this going to

0:40:21.780 --> 0:40:25.980
<v Speaker 1>damage him before the midterms? Because you're right. It's very

0:40:26.060 --> 0:40:28.610
<v Speaker 1>close to the midterms. And that's why the media is

0:40:28.719 --> 0:40:31.950
<v Speaker 1>pouncing the way they are. And part of it is,

0:40:31.969 --> 0:40:35.190
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they want to win over independents. I

0:40:35.210 --> 0:40:39.450
<v Speaker 1>don't think they're trying to win over, you know, disaffected Republicans.

0:40:40.320 --> 0:40:43.900
<v Speaker 1>This is playing right to their base. And the goal

0:40:44.040 --> 0:40:49.700
<v Speaker 1>is to so frighten them. to so scare him, to so,

0:40:49.780 --> 0:40:56.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, terrorize him. He wants us nuked. He's so insane.

0:40:56.500 --> 0:40:59.060
<v Speaker 1>He's so unhinged. He's so crazy.

0:40:59.080 --> 0:41:04.070
<v Speaker 3>He wants millions of us dead. You got to vote

0:41:04.110 --> 0:41:04.790
<v Speaker 3>no matter what.

0:41:04.810 --> 0:41:05.590
<v Speaker 2>You got to vote.

0:41:06.510 --> 0:41:10.210
<v Speaker 3>It's almost wink, wink. You got to vote often. You

0:41:10.230 --> 0:41:12.090
<v Speaker 3>got to get the illegals to vote. You got to

0:41:12.130 --> 0:41:15.790
<v Speaker 3>do whatever you got to do. Steal elections. but get

0:41:15.890 --> 0:41:18.469
<v Speaker 3>this man out of power before it's too late.

0:41:19.510 --> 0:41:22.730
<v Speaker 1>I think that's clearly the message that they're sending now

0:41:22.770 --> 0:41:24.210
<v Speaker 1>with this latest attack on Trump.

0:41:25.310 --> 0:41:30.970
<v Speaker 3>And that's why the panic porn now is off the charts. Okay,

0:41:30.989 --> 0:41:33.879
<v Speaker 3>617-266-6868 is the number. Okay, we're going to go right

0:41:33.900 --> 0:41:34.140
<v Speaker 3>to break.
