That means only one 2 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: thing on this radio program, whether we are in Doha, 3 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: Tar or whether we are in the Free State of Florida. 4 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 2: It means all things, simple man. 5 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: That means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly 6 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: or billoreilly dot com. The only thing missing here is 7 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly, Mister O'Reilly, sir, welcome. I will tell you 8 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: Katar is a spectacular city. It is unbelievable and very, 9 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: very different than Saudi Arabia. I know you're well traveled 10 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: throughout your careers as a media personality and journalist at 11 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: different times, but I will tell you it's beyond impressive. 12 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 2: How are you, sir? 13 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 3: I'm okay. You hanging tap. You look a little tired 14 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 3: last night on TV, but you didn't sleep for twenty 15 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 3: four hours. I understand right. 16 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: I did not sleep at twenty four hours, and you 17 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: know we were on the air at four am local time, 18 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: and then this morning I was up at six o'clock 19 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: to get back on the road again. And it's not 20 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: exactly been my day of napping. But with all that said, 21 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 1: it really is an honor to be here. Sure, it's 22 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: an honor. 23 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 2: To see this up close and personal. 24 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: We both have had these moments in our career where 25 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: sleep is secondary. And to give you know, to use 26 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: your words the folks of a first hand view of 27 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 1: history and the making for me is a great honor 28 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: and I'm very grateful. And I think these are all 29 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: big things that the President's working on. I'm watching what 30 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: happened in Saudi Arabia. I saw things that I didn't 31 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: think i'd see. I'm seeing the same things here in guitar. 32 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: I do have my very strong belief that radical is 33 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: and must be completely rejected. You can't turn a blind 34 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: eye towards it. I would like to see this part 35 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: of the world align now with Israel in the West 36 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: and the Abraham Accords, as the President has challenged. The 37 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: President has been very clear on Iran. I was there 38 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 1: this well, my time this morning, when everybody else was 39 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: sleeping where you are. I heard the President warning of 40 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: new sanctions ahead of the Russia Ukraine peace talks, which 41 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: I do hope takes place. These are not small items. 42 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: He's taken on every big issue in the world. And 43 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: you know he showed some success with Indian Pakistan. 44 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 3: But what say you sir, well, there's a changing dynamic 45 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 3: where you are. I haven't been to the Gulf States. 46 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 3: I spent some time in Iraq during the war, as 47 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 3: you know, Kuwait, Afghanistan, but editing it down to the 48 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 3: Gulf States, but it's a thing history there. So there's 49 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 3: no question of Wahabism, which drives the hatred toward the Jews, 50 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: and the West America is on the decline, and that 51 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: that's a key factor that the Trump administration understands that 52 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: under Barack Obama, wa Hobbism was was still very strong, 53 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 3: and the Sultans who run Cutter and Saudi Arabian Emirates, 54 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 3: they were afraid of the Hobbis. They were tetrified. That 55 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 3: has declined in conjunction with Iran. I don't want to 56 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 3: be too pennheady here, but Iran was always the money 57 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: behind the radical Islamis, and now Iran's on the ropes. 58 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 3: So the Trump administration understands that global reality and has 59 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 3: basically said to the Gulf States, you need to throw 60 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: in with us, and by mention Israel, we don't need 61 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: you to love them, but we need you to treat 62 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 3: them fairly. And I think that all of the Guried 63 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 3: States at this point in history are going to do that. 64 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 3: Does that analysis make sense? 65 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: No, it makes a lot of sense, because I can 66 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: tell you this. It is very obvious to me that 67 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: if there was if you take if we could extrapolate 68 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: out Iran from the entire equation here in the Gulf States, 69 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: if we could do that, there is no doubt in 70 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: my mind that Saudi Arabia, that Qatar, that the Emirates, 71 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: that Egypt, Jordan, all of these countries would immediately sign on. 72 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: And now I spoke to people deep inside the Saudi 73 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: government about this. I was told this bill directly, and 74 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: they they they want to do it. That's that, and 75 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: I believe what I was told was true true. Do 76 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: you agree with that. 77 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 3: Analysis, Yes, but you need to know why they want 78 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 3: to do it. It's not because they love America or 79 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 3: they certainly don't love Israel and the Jews. That's not 80 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 3: going to change. But the people who run these countries 81 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: are realistic and they see that the threat from the 82 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 3: gis declined, and what they want most of all they've 83 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 3: always want, is to make money. You say that the 84 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 3: cities are spectacular, they are, but that doesn't fill their 85 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 3: down to the folks very much. A lot of poverty 86 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 3: in those countries. It's the royal family and the apparatunics 87 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 3: attached to them that really benefit. And they build these 88 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 3: big spectacle cities and these airlines like Emirates, which some 89 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 3: consider best in the world, to get people to do commerce, 90 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 3: to buy their oil or buy their stuff. So it's 91 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 3: more of an economic thing than a well we've had 92 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 3: a conversion like America now, because we respect America's freedom. 93 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 3: There's no freedom in the Gulf States. You get out 94 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: of line, they're going to come and take you away 95 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 3: to quote Buffalo Springfield. But Trump is the ultimate capitalist. 96 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 3: Trump speaks their language money wise. That is the reason 97 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 3: this stayton is now forming because they understand each other. 98 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: Well, I think your analysis is right. I think it's 99 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: about money. But Bill, I would rather they care about 100 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,799 Speaker 1: capitalism and money. Now, it's interesting when you talk about poverty, 101 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: because you know, I've now driven extensively through these two countries, 102 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: and I'll drive through the UAE tomorrow. And for example, 103 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: crime compared to the US, drugs compared to the US, 104 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: all of these sort of things. And don't mistake me, 105 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: I am not for theocracy or the rigidity or the 106 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: lack of freedom that is associated with the culture and 107 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: the more Ras and many of these states. And I 108 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: want to be very clear about that. However, it is 109 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: these Gulf states are ruled with an iron fist. But 110 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: the folks, to use your term, are doing much better 111 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: because some of that money has in fact cascaded down 112 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: to the folks, and the poverty level has come up dramatically, 113 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: and people are doing much much better than they had 114 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: previously because we're talking about wealth that is unimaginable to 115 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: most people. 116 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 3: That's true, and that's a smart thing that the Shakes 117 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 3: have accomplished. But the two factors. Number one, if you 118 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 3: commit a crime in any of those places, you'll get 119 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 3: your hand cut off or you'll disappear. So these are 120 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: fascist societies, no due process. 121 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: By the way, if you were a citizen event any 122 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: of these places, they would have you. They would have 123 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: had you disappeared decades ago, we wouldn't exist. Well, if 124 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: they were listening to this radio, you know, it's shocking. 125 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: Can I just divert your attention. It's shocking how many 126 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: people here and in Saudi Arabia know me. 127 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 2: It shocks me that they have watched me for years. 128 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: It shocks me that, you know, when I went up 129 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: to the days when the President was with the Crown 130 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: Prince and I was speaking briefly with Marco Rubio, as 131 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: the President pointed me out to the Crown Prince and 132 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: made a joke, and the Crown Prince laughed, and then 133 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: I said, nobody up here, mister President, knows who I am. 134 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: And the guy sitting to the right of the President said, 135 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: you're Sean Hannity of Fox News. And the guy, oh, 136 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: he said Hannity, and the guy goes next to him, 137 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: You're Sean Hannity, a Fox News And that. 138 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: Kind of surprised me. Really, that would that have surprised you. 139 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 3: No, I just got invited to speak to She's guys 140 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 3: in Beijing on the twenty eighth of May. 141 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 2: That shocks me, by the way, it was really nice 142 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 2: knowing your Bill. 143 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: I appreciate our friendship, but I'd be very careful. 144 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 3: Log I'll talk to you that about I'll talk to 145 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 3: you about that next Wednesday. But with YouTube and with 146 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 3: social media now everything it just carries all over the world. 147 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,719 Speaker 3: And Fox News is still a big canon. I mean, 148 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 3: obviously the people who want to know what Donald Trump 149 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 3: thinks are going to be dialed into that. I don't 150 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 3: think Rachel Maddow would be getting any hosannas over in 151 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 3: the Gulf States, if you know what I mean. 152 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: Anyway, By the way, that might be the best line 153 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: you've ever heard. 154 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: She's not going to be getting anyanas over in the 155 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: Gulf States. 156 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 3: Hey, Rachel. But you know, this is what people don't 157 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 3: understand about Trump. He's not a politician. And one of 158 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 3: the reasons that I believe he's ultimately going to be 159 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 3: successful in bringing more prosperities of this country because he 160 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 3: doesn't look at things like Jimmy Carter looked at it 161 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 3: or Obama looked at it. He doesn't look at it 162 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 3: like that. He's not looking at well, how many votes 163 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 3: am I going to get in Missouri if I do this? 164 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 3: He's not. He lives at it like how much money 165 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 3: is going to come into the United States if I 166 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: sell all these Boeing jets to cut her. I mean, 167 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 3: he didn't care about votes in Washington State, where Boeing 168 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 3: his base. He's a deal guy and in the Gulf 169 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: that is a huge advantage over these pinheads who come 170 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 3: out of the political science schools. Where the Arabs couldn't 171 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 3: care less about the electoral vote in Wisconsin. They respect 172 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 3: Trump because they know Trump is a successful business person. 173 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: All right, clickbreak, will come back more things with simple man, 174 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: Bill O'Riley. So he'll proclaim, simple man, all things are 175 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: Riley A bill right. As we continue. We are in Doha, 176 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: we are in Qatar. 177 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 3: A right, we. 178 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: Continue now with all things simple man. That means Bill O'Reilly. 179 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: As we broadcast live from Doha, Qatar, you heard Trump 180 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: his very direct threat to Iran. 181 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 2: He's like, I want the people to prosper. I want 182 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: them to prosper. 183 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: I want but but they will never have a nuclear weapon, 184 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: and they've got to dismantle their nuclear capability or there 185 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: will be action. And I think there is a hope 186 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 1: on their part that in fact, Donald Trump will do 187 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: the job that they themselves can't do. That's what I 188 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: think a big part of the equation is. And as 189 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: a consequence of that, we go back to where I 190 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: was before, and that is that that would result in 191 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: an unprecedented peace in the region, that would result in 192 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: them joining the Abraham McCord. It's the recognition of Israel 193 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: et cetera. I mean that's certainly the hope. I think 194 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 1: it is definitely a possibility. 195 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 3: I would not disagree with that. Trump is a symbolic 196 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 3: iron dome to the Gulf nations. 197 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: They know that by the way that that is, you're 198 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: a wordsmith. With that, you're on your a game today. 199 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 3: He protects them from the tribalism because it's Sunni Shi 200 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: and all that stuff of Iran and they but even 201 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 3: more importantly, they know if Trump says Iran's not going 202 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 3: to get a nuclear weapon or they believe that he's 203 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 3: going to follow through. 204 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty amazing times. I do want to talk more 205 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: the next time you're on the program about your trip. 206 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: You are taking trip to China.

I mean, you're Bill, O'Reilly, Well, thank you. 214 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 3: I appreciate the killing Jesus in China. 215 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 1: Listen, I'm not surprised in all seriousness.

Laura Trump, thank. 346 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 6: You so much. 347 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: Now, what's amazing about that? Oh, you're making fun of 348 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 1: his stuttering? No, nobody was making fun of his stuttering. 349 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 2: I'll be honest. 350 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: I never once talked about Joe Biden having a stuttering problem. 351 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: He had a cognitive problem, A very big distinction and difference. 352 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: You know, he's David Axelrod. Oh, people around him didn't 353 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 1: serve him well. Now, in one little bit of fairness 354 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: to David Axelrod, he didn't want He knew Joe Biden 355 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: was a mess. 356 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 2: He just didn't say it. 357 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: He went all the way around the edges, never came 358 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: out and said this man has no business being president 359 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,239 Speaker 1: the way we did and the way anybody in the 360 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 1: media should have done. 361 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,640 Speaker 7: Listen, I think one of the tragedies of this story 362 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 7: is that Joe Biden served this country honorably for more 363 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 7: than half a century, did accomplish some very significant things 364 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 7: as president, but mistakenly thought that he was equipped to 365 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 7: run for another term when I said, as I said 366 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 7: back in twenty twenty two, he'd be closer to ninety 367 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 7: than eighty at the end of that term. And that 368 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 7: was just not sensible. And a lot of people around 369 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 7: him did not serve him well because they reinforced his 370 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 7: desire to run instead of protecting his legacy and him 371 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 7: and by the way, also the Democratic Party in the country, 372 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 7: so you know. 373 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: He doesn't get a pass either. And then you got 374 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: Chucky Schumer shutting down somebody on fake news. Cy and 375 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: N's question about Biden's cognitive state. Chucky Schumer knew, Nancy 376 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: Pelosi knew, everybody around Joe knew. 377 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 2: They covered it up. 378 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 1: They lied because they just didn't want Donald Trump, and 379 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: they hate Trump way more than they care about telling 380 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: the American people the truth. 381 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 8: Listen, you sat next to Biden in the Oval office 382 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 8: February twenty seventh, twenty twenty four, just a handful of 383 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 8: months before the president took that debate stage, and it 384 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 8: was later reported that you and other democratically about having 385 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 8: a plan, you and Hakeem Jeffries, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama. 386 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 8: I understand you later denied that that ever happened, but 387 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 8: I am curious. I'm interested to know whether the man 388 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 8: that you saw us sitting there on that couch on 389 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 8: that day you were in there, you saw him up 390 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 8: close and personal, did you really not have any idea 391 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 8: that he was not fit to serve a second term? 392 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 4: Casey, we're looking forward. 393 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: We have the largest medicaid caught in front of us, 394 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 1: we have the coll federal. 395 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 8: All this because you lost a presidential election, and is 396 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 8: that not Joe Biden's responsibility for deciding. 397 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 4: To run again. We're looking forward, that's it. 398 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: That's it, and not to be outdone. 399 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 6: You know. 400 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 1: Now the minority leader in the House, Hakim Jeffrey, he's 401 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: asked about Biden not recognizing George Clooney, we're looking forward. Really, 402 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: what did you know and when did you know it? 403 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: There really should be an investigation. I'll tell you why. 404 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: Because if a president has severe cognitive decline the way 405 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 1: Joe Biden did, it is a national security risk. It 406 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:20,719 Speaker 1: is a national security risk. It's that simple. All right, 407 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: Let's get to our busy phones as we continue. We 408 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: are in Doha, we are in guitar. Let us get 409 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: to our phones. We'll stay in Texas with Bill.

They 485 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 10: could be trying to find out secrets. And I'm sure 486 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 10: President Trump is smart enough to dissect the whole thing 487 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 10: and break it all down. And why can't we just 488 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 10: be grateful that? Okay, let's let's run with this. See 489 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 10: what happens. Worst case scenario, you sell it all for parts. 490 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 1: Look, the Air Force one and I have the honor 491 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: of traveling, as you know, and reporting on what's going 492 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: on on this trip. And this is the president's you know, 493 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: first foreign trip in a second term, and it's a 494 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: forty year old plane. And it's kind of hard to, 495 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: you know, think that America has a forty year old 496 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: plane for the president of our country. When I was 497 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: leaving Saudi Arabia, I did notice that they had all 498 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: of the Golf states that were there, and I did 499 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: notice the planes of other states in the Gulf, and 500 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 1: they were far newer or seemingly far newer and bigger 501 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: than Air Force One. And maybe it sounds egotistical, and 502 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: if it does to people, that's fine, But I think 503 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: the president should have the best, the latest, the greatest always, 504 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: because that's just who we are as a country. I mean, 505 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: we are the leader of the free world. End of sentence. 506 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: And as I always say, every single politician, Democrat, Republican 507 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 1: needs to be protected. And I don't care what your 508 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: political affiliation is. We need to protect elected officials. And 509 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: I said that back in the Obama years, many many times, 510 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: I'll say the same thing here is we need the latest, greatest, 511 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: best technology. No that we have enemies that are targeting 512 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: our country and our president. 513 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: So I think it's fine. 514 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: Now there's a bigger issue in play here too, And 515 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: I brought this up last night on TV. I brought 516 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: it up on this radio show yesterday. And the amount 517 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: of protection that is provided to Qatar and Saudi Arabia 518 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: and UA is incalculable because not only do we sell 519 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: them and you'd say, well, we're just selling the military equipment. 520 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: It's not that we're selling them the military equipment. And 521 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: I watched you know the I think they're fifteens, eighteen's 522 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: whatever they were on the side of each wing applying 523 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: into each country. It's that we are giving them that 524 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: technology and they wouldn't have anywhere near the security. 525 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 2: You can't put a price on that. 526 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: The last thing largest military bases right here in Guitar 527 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: for the US in terms of the Middle East, the 528 00:29:55,920 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: Kataris have spent eight billion dollars in terms of investing 529 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 1: money to build out that base. Nobody ever questioned that money. 530 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: There is a Defense Alliance agreement between our two countries 531 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: that far, the benefit far is far in favor of 532 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 1: the Kataris than it is America. And so it's trust me, 533 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: it's it's a small price to pay, relatively speaking, for 534 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: what we're offering them. Anyway, God bless Texas. Cindy, appreciate you. 535 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 2: Thank you. 536 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and ninety four one sewn.
