I'm sorry, 11 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: Trump picking Pencer Newt. I'll get it right one of 12 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: these days. Why don't we put a poll up on 13 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 1: Hannity dot com about the two of them and see 14 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: who does better? Uh. Glad you're with us eight hundred 15 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: nine four one, Shawn, if you want to be a 16 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 1: part of this extravaganza. Two meetings with Pence, a rally 17 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: last night apparently this morning, Donald Trump and his kids 18 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: and Jared Kushner, who is Ivanka's husband, met with uh, 19 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: Mike Pence and his wife, and then a meeting with 20 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: New King Rich and there's rumors that there might be 21 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: a meeting with Jeff Sessions, which kind of surprised me, 22 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: but I have not been able to confirm that. And 23 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: we're told that Chris Christie may still be in the hunt. 24 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: But it really appears to be coming down to Newt 25 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,119 Speaker 1: versus Pence. So we are on twenty four hour three, 26 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: although it's gonna be probably the next forty six hours 27 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: we'll know who Donald Trump chooses as his running mate. Uh. 28 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: We say this with some fascinating poll numbers that have 29 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 1: come out. If you look at the Quinnipiac poll in Pennsylvania, 30 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: a state that has been deeply blue for a long time, well, 31 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania has Trump up by two. In Ohio, according to 32 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: the Quinnipiac poll, it's dead even in Pennsylvania, was forty 33 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: one for Trump. In Florida, it's Trump forty to Clinton 34 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: thirty nine. Now if you add Gary Johnson and this 35 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: woman Stein, it's in Pennsylvania it's Trump forty, it's Clinton 36 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: thirty four. That's a six point plus Trump lead in Pennsylvania. 37 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: If you look in Ohio Trump versus Clinton, and you 38 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: add the other candidates, these these lesser candidates, well then 39 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: it's Trump. I'm sorry, Ohio, it's Trump thirty seven, Clinton 40 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: thirty six. Trump win in Ohio, Trump win in Pennsylvania, 41 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: and Trump winning according to Quinnipiac when you add everybody 42 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: into the match, he's up by five in the state 43 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: of Florida six. Pretty fascinating. This is on top of 44 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: the Iowa poll, whereas Clinton uh forty two, Trump forty four. 45 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: By the way, uh, Senator Grassley is winning that race. 46 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: He's plus ten. I think he'll do better than that 47 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: when all is said and done. That would be my guess. 48 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: Rasmussen has the president's job approval at disapproved three. He's 49 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: at forty percent, which is a number that would certainly, 50 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: by every past indicator in measure help the party. Had 51 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: a power win the White House, no doubt about that. 52 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 1: If you look at another Florida poll, we got JMC analytics, 53 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: he got Trump plus five in Florida. You have Clinton 54 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: plus seven a Harper poll out of Colorado. Uh. If 55 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: you look at Marco Rubio's race, he's now up by 56 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: seven in the race. He's actually up by eight against Grayson. 57 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: He'd be up by seven against Murphy. And for those 58 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 1: of you that complained to me that Marco Rubio is running. 59 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: We need Marco Rubio's vote, we need him in the U. S. Senate. Well, 60 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: he went with comprehensive immigration reform, and you know what, 61 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 1: he learned a lesson and paid a price, and he's apologized. 62 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to ever talk about it again. I 63 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: don't ever want to talk about it ever again. Ever. 64 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: That's it. He's gonna vote for Supreme Court justices that 65 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: are that believe in our constitution, co equal branches of government, 66 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: separation of powers, religious liberty and freedom, and our Second 67 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: Amendment rights. There's too much at stake here. You've got 68 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 1: to look some of you at the big picture. I'm 69 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: not talking anymore. I'm tired of you anti Trump people 70 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: or never Trump people. Uh, you want Hillary to appoint 71 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: Supreme Court justices, you can have her. That's your choice. 72 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you right now, if at the end 73 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: of the day, at the end of the day, Hillary 74 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: wins a close election, I'm blaming all of you anti trumpers. 75 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: You're responsible for this. All of the Paul Ryan's of 76 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: the world that can't find it in their heart to 77 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: endorse or some of the other presidential candidates that went 78 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: against their own word that they would support the eventual nominee. 79 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: Sick of everybody. Everyone's got their own personal, selfish agenda, 80 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: and if it's not about me, me, me, me me, 81 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: then it's a it's a big problem. Now. There's a 82 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: lot going on this week behind the scenes at the 83 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: convention as the GOP now moves closer to the base. Uh. 84 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: There's an article out today that the r n C 85 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: is embracing a strongly staunchly conservative position on issues like 86 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: abortion and gay rights and gun rights. They're moving towards 87 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: Trump on issues like immigration and building a wall and 88 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: trade in some of the other issues. And so that's 89 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: going fairly well in Trump's direction. For those of you 90 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: that loved Senator Ted Cruz and I like Ted Cruz, 91 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 1: we know that he's gonna be speaking at the convention. 92 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: Good for him. I think he deserves that spot. I 93 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: think that's an important position. He's not given an indication 94 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: that he's gonna endorse Donald Trump yet, but I hope 95 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: he keeps his word. I think it's about time Cruise 96 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: will speak to a gathering for the Council of National Policy. 97 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: I've spoken of them before. A great group a conservative 98 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: activists many of whom backed him and his failed presidential 99 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: bid or only this year. The CMP is a nonprofit, 100 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: but some of its members include the CMP president Tony Perkins, 101 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: he's a nice guy. Also serves as the head of 102 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: the Family Research Council. We have let's see the emerging platform. 103 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: This is how the media, The New York Times writes 104 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 1: it up. Emerging Republican platform goes to the far right. 105 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: Do you ever hear the media talk about the far left? 106 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: Have you ever heard the words extreme left wing? Well? 107 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: Obama is an extreme leftist. Hillary is an extreme leftist. 108 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: They're both Alinsky disciples. You know, he's an acorn organizer, 109 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: learned at the altar of Frank Marshall Davis, a a 110 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: known communist. We know that he has a a belief 111 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: about Islam based on his upbringing, his father being Muslim, 112 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: and others in his life that he knew that were Muslim, 113 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: and of course he went to a Muslim school. That 114 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: The New York Times reported Nicholas Kristof that he said, 115 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: with a first great accent, that the most beautiful moment 116 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: on earth is the call to prayer at sunset. That's 117 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: the New York Times. You can't blame me for what 118 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: the New York Times reported. I did not put up 119 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: the picture. I did not. I'm not the one that 120 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: found the picture of Obama in Muslim garb at a wedding. 121 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: That was not me. But it's there if you want 122 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: to look at it. Hannahy, you're saying he's a Muslim. No, 123 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: he went to the church at g d America. He 124 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: went to Reverend Rites church. He believed in black liberation theology, 125 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: where white folks greed runs a world in need? Is 126 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: this world a world where cruise ships throw away more 127 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: food in a day than most residents of Porto prints 128 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: see in a year, where white folks greed runs a 129 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: world in need, apartheid in one head by another hemisphere. 130 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: That's the world. And his grandmother was just a typical 131 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: white woman, you know, just typical. Whatever the point I 132 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: was making was not that my grandmother Harbor's any racial animosity. 133 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: She doesn't. But she is a typical white person who 134 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: sees somebody on the street that she doesn't know. You know, 135 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: there's a reaction that's been bred into our experiences that 136 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: that don't go away. By the way, did Jesse Jackson 137 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: not get criticized for saying that he would go to 138 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: the other side of the street. Yeah, he did say that. 139 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: That was years ago though, But you know, and I 140 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: don't think Jesse Jackson's a typical white person like Obama's grandmother. 141 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: Unbelievable anyway, So is the Republicans are moving towards adopting 142 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: their platform. Apparently it would bar military women from combat. 143 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: Now why do people do that? Why would they say 144 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: women can be in combat? Well? Is it fair to 145 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: make this statement? I want to let you decide that, 146 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: generally speaking, if you're not Rhonda Rousey, who I happen 147 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: to love because I love and I train in martial 148 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: arts and mixed martial arts. If you're not a martial 149 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: artist or a boxer, is it fair to say that, 150 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 1: generally speaking, not that men are better, but that men 151 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: are generally speaking, physically stronger than women. Is that a 152 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: fair statement? Could that be one of the reasons? You know, 153 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: maybe we'll do a handity poll on that coming up 154 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: to arl We'll see. Um, if you're a woman and 155 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: you're captured, does it shock your conscience at the idea 156 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: of what could happen to our daughters and our granddaughters. 157 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 1: Knowing the evil that exists in the world. Seeing videos 158 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: of ISIS beheading groups of heat people. I don't know why. 159 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: I guess maybe you want to call me sexist. But 160 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: if somebody breaks into the Hannity household and I hear 161 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: them downstairs, it's going to be me saying, honey, stay there, kids, 162 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: go in this place where you know you're supposed to go, 163 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: and I will handle it and I'll go down. Now 164 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: does that make me Bam Bam or flint Fred flint 165 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: Stone or Barney Rubble And I'll bring Dino the Dinosaur Marley, 166 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: and I'll bring Dino the Dinosaur my other dog, Gracy 167 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: and see if they can help me. But I'm not 168 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: sure exactly they'll do that well with it anyway. So 169 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: also the public health crisis they're also taking and declaring 170 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: poor not Graphia. Public health crisis is part of their platform. 171 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: This is what the this is. This is how the 172 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: New York Times reports it. They're calling uh on a 173 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: plan to destroy ISIS, belittling President Obama as weak, which 174 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: he is, in effective, which he is. Can't even say 175 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: radical Islam, He can't say the Islamic state is Islamic. 176 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: He thought that the JV team a year and a 177 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: half ago. It's pretty said they were contained just before Paris. 178 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: So anyway, all of this now is being put together. 179 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: But it seems that social conservatives in the party exerted 180 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: a lot of influence, and I think in that way 181 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: that the Republican Party principles appear to be heading in 182 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: a direction that is traditionally conservative. With the exceptions of 183 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: building the wall and trade issues, I would say those 184 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: might take it out of out of maybe the traditional 185 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: or historical norm. Maybe it's a better way to put 186 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: that there is a great pro Israel platform. This on 187 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: the heels of learning that a Bama and the State 188 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: Department tried to fund an effort and Obama operatives who 189 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: are on the ground in Israel trying to defeat Prime 190 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the last election. Anyway, so you 191 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: got all these poll numbers out, it's pretty funny. You 192 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: read the Politico. A few weeks ago, political was reporting 193 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: the Donald Trump had phone so far behind, no way 194 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: for him to catch up, especially since he raised no 195 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: money and it had no organization. Two weeks later, here's 196 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: the headline on Politico. Swing States stunner, Trump has edge 197 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: and key states new swing state polls released Wednesday by 198 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: Quinnipeac University. So Trump leading Clinton in Florida and Pennsylvania. 199 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: Well in the races, it's actually gonna be Is winning 200 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: in Ohio two. Yeah, those are very key states. So 201 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: it's come down to ging Rich and Pence. Um. Why 202 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: have I been saying I prefer ging Rich for me? Um? 203 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: I was there. I've known New Gingrid since nine ninety. 204 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: We've been friends for all that time. I am see 205 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: the event in Georgia at the Cobb Galleria in the 206 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: night that he was elected speaker. I watched him almost 207 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: single handedly put together the plan, the Contract with America 208 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: that was predated by something that was called um Renewing 209 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: American Civilization. A series of tapes that he put together, 210 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: and it helped candidates learn about the issues and the 211 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: things that they should stand for and be passionate about. 212 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: And then he followed through on the promises. He said, 213 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: we'll vote on these ten items in a hundred days, 214 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: and we're gonna do that. We may not pass them, 215 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: but we're gonna vote on him. And they did it. 216 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: And then the end result was that he was willing 217 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 1: to shut down the government. He was willing to fight. 218 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: He stepped on toes. He probably doesn't vet as well 219 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: as Mike Pence because he's more controversial. He was far 220 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: more transformative, though than any other modern political figure. There 221 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: are really two moments of conservatism where it advanced and 222 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: transformed the country for the better. The Reagan years where 223 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: we ended the Cold War well right after he got 224 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 1: out of office and literally created twenty one million new jobs. 225 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: We doubled revenues to the federal government. Net reduction in 226 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: taxes was historic by Reagan. It was one slight adjustment 227 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 1: and we had the country was better. New Gingridge got 228 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 1: us to a balanced budget and a surplus. By the way, 229 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: the poll is up, should it be Pence or new 230 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: Newt or Pence. You can go to Hannity dot com 231 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 1: right now and make your voice hurt and I'll mail 232 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: it over to the Trump campaign. See what they say. 233 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: Vote for whoever you want. Can you vote as often 234 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: as you want to? Just once? Just once? Okay? Are 235 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: you sure? All right? You know the media is gonna 236 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: check that you can vote as many times as you want. 237 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: Hannity line. I don't have anything bad to say against 238 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: Mike Pence. Nothing I like him As a matter of fact, 239 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: I think he's a good man, and I'm sure he 240 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 1: vetted easier than new And I'm sure the media will 241 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: try and dig up everything they can on Newton, and 242 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: he's younger, and he's got some other things. He's done 243 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: a good job in Indiana, he was a good congressman. 244 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: The reason I like new is because I don't think 245 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 1: there's anybody that communicates as intelligently and as effectively as 246 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: new does. And when it comes to prosecuting the case 247 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: against Hillary, that vice presidential candidate is gonna need to 248 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: do that effectively. I don't think there's anybody that can 249 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: sell Trump as well as probably New King Ridge can 250 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: because he's so smart and bright and articulate. I don't 251 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: think anyone has the track record. I don't think anybody's 252 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: gonna be able to deal with the hostile Congress as 253 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: effectively as New Gingwich, and I think you'd be a 254 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: great surrogate for Trump. And the other big reason I'd 255 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: give is God forbid nine eleven Pearl Harbor, some horrific 256 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: event financial collapse happens, I want new in the room 257 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: as one of the top advisors. So that's why I 258 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: pick him. And I think when he speaks, he commands 259 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: a mention. This is not in any way saying anything 260 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: negative against my Mike Pence. I think Pence is the 261 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: more Vanilla's safe choice. It might some of the donor 262 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: class might be relieved not another firebrand, But I don't 263 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: think this is a time for half measures. I don't. 264 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: I think this is a time if we want to 265 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is proposing a transformative agenda, and if he 266 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: wants to be a successful governing president and really get 267 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: things done, he's gonna need a strong partner. So at 268 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's his decision. He has 269 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: to make that decision alone. And that's what presidents do. 270 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: You know what a book just really hooks you and 271 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: you just can't put it down.

Hey, 288 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: I want to give a shout out to my friends 289 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: in Atlanta today. Um, I have four wonderful years of 290 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: my life down there, and every year now for about 291 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: a decade. Is that about right? I'd say close. I'd 292 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: ask Condas presently about it, but or Greg mos Sherry 293 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: or Pete Spriggs. But anyway, they have what's called the 294 00:16:55,360 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: WSP Curathon, and in every past year we would do 295 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: is we would devote an hour of the program for WSP. 296 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: But because of my crazy, insane schedule and the news, 297 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 1: I just wasn't able to do it this year. But 298 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: they have associated themselves. They raised millions of dollars every year, 299 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 1: and it's for the Afflack Children's Hospital Cancer Center. And 300 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: I've never met a group of people so dedicated to 301 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: helping these young kids that are in the fight of 302 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: their lives than the people at the Afflack Cancer Center. 303 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: No other radio station in America that can do this 304 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: kind of wonderful work like WSP does. And my friends 305 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: and colleagues like Scott Slade and and of course Herman 306 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,719 Speaker 1: Kane is a part of this, and and Clark Howard 307 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: is a part of this, and they hold WSB team 308 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: is a big part of it, and they've raised millions. Anyway, 309 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: the cure Thon is going on there and they raised 310 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: the fortune. I'll give money again this year like I 311 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 1: have in past years. And uh. Anyway, if you want 312 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 1: to know more about it, you can go to WSP 313 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: radio dot com slash churathon. No child has ever turned 314 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: away because of the inability to pay, never and they have. 315 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: They're on the cutting edge, literally the precipice of the 316 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: best research for children and cancer and cancers like Lukemi 317 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: and some others. So we also put it on my website, 318 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:15,959 Speaker 1: Hannity dot com. While you're there, you might want to 319 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: vote it's either Newt or Pence, because it seems to 320 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: be coming down to those two. And I'll get back 321 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: to that in a minute. You know, I mentioned a 322 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: minute ago that Deray McKesson is at the White House, 323 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: this leader of the Black Lives Matter movement. How to 324 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 1: fight with him on TV one night anyway, that's the 325 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 1: group that has members chanting pigs in a blanket, fry 326 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: him like bacon, and what do we want dead cops? 327 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: When do we want them now? So they're burying the 328 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: cops in Dallas today, and at the same time, the 329 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: leader of the Black Lives Matter movement that is threatened 330 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: to well protest and caused trouble at the conventions, they're 331 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 1: meeting with the president. Mckesson's meeting with the President today, 332 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 1: he's in the Oval Office, while we're burying these five 333 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 1: cops down in Dallas. Now, there's more news out of this. 334 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: If you doubt that Black Lives Mattered does pose a 335 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: serious threat to public safety, and remember it was a 336 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter march. If I'm not mistaken where this 337 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: shooting of all these cops took place, I'm not saying 338 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: that the shooter we don't know that he was a member. 339 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: We know that he said he's anti white, although President 340 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 1: Obama is the only one having a hard time figuring 341 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: out why this guy acted this way, even though he 342 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: told the police chief of Dallas that he wanted to 343 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: kill white people and specifically white police officers. Anyway, March 344 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: Eugene Ratney, according to the Department of Correction records, was 345 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: due to be released from was not due to be 346 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: released from prison until past June six, after serving half 347 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: of a twelve year sentence following the conviction as a 348 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: serious violent felon with a weapon. Well ten days later, 349 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were called to an East 350 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: Side address where this guy's sister said he had pulled 351 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: the gun and threatened to kill her and instigators now 352 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: report according to Fox News, and neighbors have confirmed that 353 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: Ratney only again only served halfter sentence on parole. Was 354 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: the man in a Black Lives Matter T shirt screaming 355 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 1: profanities at police who actually shot up at Indianapolis Metropolitan 356 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: Police Department officers house not far from his own home 357 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: early this morning. The officer and his family, thank god, 358 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: we're uninjured. Um think about this. You're in your home. 359 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: If there's one place in the world you should be 360 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: safe and feel safe. Your family should feel safe at 361 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: your home. The officer had just gotten back from work. 362 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: He had not yet retired for the night when approximately 363 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 1: seventeen shots were fired from a nine millimeter handgun into 364 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: the house, fence and patrol car. Neighbors recalled seeing a 365 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: man in a Black Lives Matter T shirt that also 366 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: had obscenities directed at police walking the neighborhood last Friday night. 367 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: Nearby surveillance EMERA captured images of a fleeing vehicle shortly 368 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: after the shooting at two am. Ratney was driving a 369 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: similar car was stopped a few blocks later within the hour. 370 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: During his interrogation by the Indianapolis Police, Ratney denied the shooting, 371 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: became my rate, cursed the officers, and urinated in the 372 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: interview room. Wow, it's pretty scary stuff, isn't it. Anyway? 373 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: So let me go back to why I say newt 374 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: which I've been saying for days now. I don't have 375 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: one negative thing to say against Mike Pence. I like 376 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: we Pence is a friend of the program, and we 377 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 1: have Mike Pence on this program. A lot. I like him, 378 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: he's smart. I think he's done a great job as governor. 379 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: I know he had a little bit of controversy over 380 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: that religious issue. I forget what the whole issue was about. 381 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: Do you remember what it was? Yeah, and then he 382 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:56,479 Speaker 1: took one position that he flopped on it or what happened. No, Well, okay, 383 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 1: you know it's not the biggest deal in the world. Look, nobody, 384 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,120 Speaker 1: you know it's funny. The Trump team is like out 385 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 1: there vetting. And I don't mean this in a sarcastic way. 386 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: The Trump team is vetting all these people for vice president, 387 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 1: probably on paper. Now, this is an insurgent year, and 388 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: I'm so glad that political correctness is being cast aside 389 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 1: this year. I think people are sick of it all. 390 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: But anyway, how would Trump vet if he was vetting himself. 391 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 1: Let's say, average vetting book fifty pages on an individual, 392 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 1: looking at their finances, pass controversies, accomplishment's positions, etcetera. I 393 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean on paper, probably you get to 394 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: page two on Trump. You probably closed the book and say, okay, 395 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: he's probably not vetting as well as in as well 396 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: as the other people. It's kind of funny, little ironic. 397 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 1: I would imagine that Mike Pence Vet's a lot better 398 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: than New Gang Rich. But I don't think this is 399 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 1: impactful in a year like this. I think what's impactful 400 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: when you have ninety million Americans out of the labor force, 401 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: when you've doubled the nash sational debt, When you have 402 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: fifty million people in poverty, forty six million on food stamps, 403 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: millions more than what we had eight years ago. When 404 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: you have one in six American men eighteen and thirty 405 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: four either in jail or out of the labor force, 406 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: When you have one in five families that don't have 407 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: a single family member working, not one person. I think 408 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: it speaks volumes when you see the disaster of Obama's 409 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: pull out of Iraq, when you see the disaster of 410 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: what he did with Syria and the red line in 411 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: the sand, when you see the vacuum that was created 412 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: four Isis in Iraq and Syria, and cities that Americans 413 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 1: fought bled and died for, Ramadi in Mo and Moscile, 414 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: and pollution to create in the hands of Isis, along 415 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: with the oil resources. Trump was right, we probably should 416 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: have taken it, giving that money to the military anyway. 417 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: Uh oh, here's the thing on Pence. I'll get to 418 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: that in a second. So you know, you look at 419 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: you look at now we know that the president of 420 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: the United States campaign team with taxpayer dollars actually went 421 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: out there to Israel to actively campaign against one of 422 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: our closest allies. You know, you look at the president 423 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: that can't identify radical Islam for what it is. A 424 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: president that called the Isis the JV team, but less 425 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 1: than two years ago he said they were contained just 426 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 1: before the attacks in Paris. I've never met somebody so 427 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,880 Speaker 1: wrong so often on radical Islam than him. A guy 428 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 1: that gave the head of the Muslim Brotherhood after the 429 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: Hour of Spring, Mohammed Morsey, a guy that once referred 430 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: to the Israelis as descendants of apes and pigs. While 431 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 1: he helped him out, he gave him tanks f sixteens 432 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: and one one and a half, you know, billion taxpayer dollars. 433 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 1: President that gives the Iranians the number one state sponsor 434 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: terror d fifty billion dollars. I just don't think anything 435 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: can get worse. So I think it's a transformative year. 436 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: How big an impact will the Vice presidential selection be 437 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: I don't know, so I have nothing bad to say 438 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: about Pence. I don't think that Chris Christy, who I 439 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: do like a lot personally. I think he's a very 440 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 1: good man. I think he would have done a lot better, 441 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: but he had a horrible legislature in New Jersey and 442 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: the state was downgraded quite a few times when he 443 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: was governor. I do think he will be a part 444 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: of Trump's team. I do think Rudy Giuliani will be 445 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: a part of Trump's team. I think you can watch 446 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: for people like Pam Bondi in Florida, the attorney general 447 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: down there should be a rock star on the team. 448 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: I think Ben Carson would be incredible as either surgeon 449 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: General or the Secretary of Health and Human Services. I 450 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: think Flynn was going to be a part of the team. 451 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: I'd like to see Bobby Jendal in there. You're gonna 452 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: add other names like Allan West, and there's a great 453 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: bench of people that tap into. But the job of 454 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: vice president is unique and special in this way, and 455 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: every campaign, a vice presidential nominee is the guy that 456 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: is the point person to deconstruct the opponent on the 457 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: other side. I don't think there's anybody smarter, more intelligent, 458 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: that commands more attention when they speak than new Gingrich. 459 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: I watched Pence give his speech last night. It was fine. 460 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: He used notes. New Dozen use notes. I know because 461 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: I used to m c his events all the time 462 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: in in Georgia. I'd be up on the days with 463 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: him five minutes before he's about to take the podium. 464 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: Every time Hannity, he gotta you gotta pen. Yeah, And 465 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: more often than not, he would write on a cloth 466 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: napkin because he didn't have any paper with him, and 467 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: I'd watch him, you know, I just kind of observe. 468 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: He'd write five things down then give a forty five 469 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: minute extemporating his speech that would dazzle people. Incredible incredible orator, 470 00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 1: incredible intellect. So who these are the questions for me? 471 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:05,439 Speaker 1: Who would best prosecute the case against a corrupt, crooked 472 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. I think it would probably be Newt He'd 473 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: be the most articulate. Who would make the case for 474 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: Trump's very bold agend He wants to build the wall, 475 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 1: he wants to balance the budget, he wants health care 476 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 1: savings accounts, he wants more drilling, more coal mining, he 477 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: wants fracking, he wants nuclear technology, wants to fix the 478 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: v A that's gonna be a mess, wants to build 479 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: up the military. He wants education choice back to the States. 480 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: And these are profound changes in the country. He's willing 481 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: to identify Isis as the modern day Nazism. It is 482 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: so the person that could best prosecute the case against Hillary, 483 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,360 Speaker 1: I think is New the person that could best make 484 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: the case for Trump as vice president. I think is 485 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: New the person that you would want in the room 486 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: if God forbid, something horrific happened, like a nine eleven 487 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: of Pearl Harbor, a financial crisis and depression. All these 488 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: things can happen. I want new right there and at 489 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: a top seat in power, because I think he's smart. 490 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: Nobody has the historical reference that he has. I think that, 491 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, nobody can beat new Gingrich in a debate. 492 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: If I'm a Democratic presidential candidate and I gotta debate 493 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: new Gingrich, I'm not happy about it. And I don't 494 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: think new would be mean. I think it would be effective. 495 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 1: I think that Newt is a solutions oriented transformational He 496 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: believes in transformational governments. I don't think this is a 497 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 1: time for half measures. Oh maybe, Well, we'll have the 498 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: thirty year plan to balance the budget. We'll build the 499 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: wall first, we'll have amnesty, and then we'll build the 500 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: wall and it never gets built. The education will go 501 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: back to the States in fifty years, and we'll do 502 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: energy independence nine years from now. I think that well, 503 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: we'll identify ISIS in a couple of years after something 504 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: horrible happens. These This is a pretty bold, transformative agenda 505 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: that I have quizzed and questioned and asked Trump about repeatedly, 506 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: and I hope he follows through on his promises. Jeff 507 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: Bush was saying the other day he's never going to 508 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: build that wall. If he doesn't build the wall and 509 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: we elect him, I'll belivid because that's one of his 510 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: main promises. So prosecuting the case against Hillary, making the 511 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: case for Trump somebody that can deal with Congress. I 512 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: didn't bring that up. Donald Trump will faced a hostile 513 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: Republican Congress. Paul Ryan will not agree with him on trade. 514 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: Paul Ryan is gonna oppose him on issues like immigration. 515 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: He's gonna oppose him, you know, the vetting of people 516 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: that come from countries to practice shariah that's a problem. 517 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: So you're gonna need somebody strong and forceful and powerful 518 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: that's going to advance the agenda. Look, there's two parts 519 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: of this. You gotta win, then you gotta govern. And 520 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: if you've gotta make promises to make the country great, 521 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: you've gotta have strong leadership. And I think the one 522 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: guy that would command that attention would be Newt. Now, 523 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: some of you support Mike Pence, Hannity, what about Mike Pence. 524 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: It's not a great Yeah, I agree with you. I 525 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: like Pence. I think I would think of a million 526 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: positions for him, but I would make Newt the VP 527 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: if I if anyone asked my opinion, I've already stated it. 528 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: We put up on Hannity dot com Pence versus new 529 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: new versus Pence. I'm looking. I'm pulling it up right now. 530 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: Two thousand, nine hundred and sixty two votes. We just 531 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: put it up. That's a lot of votes quickly for 532 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 1: Newt four dred and eighty four Pence. Wow too too. 533 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't I didn't vote yet. I'm voting now. I'm 534 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: voting for Newt. I told you homevol. But I don't 535 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: want to want to influence people how they vote, vote 536 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: your conscience, vote how you feel, so we should know. 537 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: I would guess the earliest tomorrow, the latest by Friday, 538 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 1: if I had to guess friday, if I had to guess, 539 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: what the odds are. If you want me to be blunt, 540 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,719 Speaker 1: should I be blunt? I'm asking you should I be blunt? 541 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: That's a question. I'd probably say. The people around Trump 542 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: probably want him to go safer. What will Donald Trump do, though, 543 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: is the question. If he listens to the people around him, 544 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,959 Speaker 1: I'd say they go Pence. If he wants to go bold, 545 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: he goes Newt. I think that's what this choice comes 546 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: down to. I don't think there's anything wrong with Pence. 547 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: I like him. I hope he'd be I hope he'd 548 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: maybe even surprise us and be bolder than I think 549 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: he is if he gets picked. But I just don't 550 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: have a crystal ball. I don't know. That's what my 551 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: guests would be. What is Trump gonna do? Trump has 552 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: not been anything but boldness entire campaign, So that makes 553 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: it interesting. Alright, hour to Sean Hannity Show. Right down 554 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: a toll free telephone number.

You know, for probably a 558 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: decade now, I guess a long time, we have participated 559 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: in what is known as their carathon curra Thon, and 560 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: they raise about a million and a half dollars a 561 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: year for the Affleck Cancer Center in Atlanta, and it 562 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: helps all these kids that are struggling to save their lives. 563 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: They have made tremendous progress. Nobody has denied care if 564 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: they can't afford it, and they've got their carathon going on. 565 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: And Uh, I usually participate because of news and events 566 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: and travel coming up, I wasn't able to do it 567 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: this year. And if you want to learn more about it, 568 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: you can go to my website Hannity dot com or 569 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: WSB radio dot com slash Carathon. It's a link on 570 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: my my website, Hannity dot com. Anyway, So, we have 571 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: new poll numbers out today, and with all the talk 572 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: about meeting with pens and meeting with nude and meeting 573 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: with Sessions, and I would assume within the next forty 574 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: eight seventy two hours we will know who Donald Trump 575 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: selects as his vice presidential running mate. And for months now, 576 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: the experts have been telling you, the American people, that 577 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton has a virtual lock on the electoral college, 578 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: which would make it almost impossible for Donald Trump to win. Now, 579 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: on paper, here's some truth to that. I mean, if 580 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: you look historically at elections since Reagan, Republicans need to 581 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: run the table. They need to win Florida, they need 582 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: to win Ohio, they need to win North Carolina, Virginia, Iowa, 583 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: New Hampshire, certainly in New Mexico is a big state, 584 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: Colorado is a big state, and they're but they've they've 585 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: had a very hard time in states like Pennsylvania. Well, 586 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: the latest Quinnipiac poll numbers, well just tear that whole 587 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: narrative that the electoral college is going to stay the 588 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: same this year. New numbers suggest that clinton scandals are 589 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: causing her to lose very important ground to Donald Trump. 590 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: Clinton lost an eight point lead in Florida, where Trump 591 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: is literally now up in one poll by six points 592 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: according to the respondents in the Quinnipiac poll, it's forty 593 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 1: thirty nine. In Pennsylvania, the polls show that Trump had 594 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: forty three percent to Clinton's forty one percent, Marge and nevera, 595 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: there is only three percent in Ohio. Uh it showed 596 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: both voters tied at forty one percent. And even though 597 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: Trump leads in Florida, voters think that Clinton in that 598 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: case has some advantages, but they think Trump is more trustworthy. 599 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: Fifty to thirty seven percent. Joining us now are two 600 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: of the best posters in the country, Jim and John McLaughlin. 601 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: It's amazing that Jim learned to show up on time 602 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: for once we welcome and I heard it was your 603 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,439 Speaker 1: birthday yesterday. Welcome back to the program, Thank you, thank you, 604 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 1: and always a pleasure show. Let's start John with you. 605 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,919 Speaker 1: How do you read these new state by state polls, 606 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: because in all honesty at this point, national polls don't 607 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: really mean a whole lot, do that. Well, they certainly 608 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: there's a mood. But I'll tell you these three polls 609 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: and that the real story that's not getting highlighted by 610 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: those Quinnipiac polls is that in the actual four w 611 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: four way race. When you mentioned that there's a little 612 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: charian Gary Johnson on the ballot and then Green Party 613 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: can h l Stein, Trump's leading actually goes up. Where 614 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: in Florida he's leading by fine six Johnson gets seven 615 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: and Stein gets four percent. And in Ohio he's up 616 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: one point and in Pennsylvania he's up six points in 617 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: the four way match. So and that's the reality of 618 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 1: the ballot because there's there are there are voters who 619 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: are unfavorble to both candidates and the and the real 620 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 1: story in those polls is that Hillary's negatives, whether it's 621 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: because of the FBI story or as much as the 622 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 1: aftermath of the tragedy in Dallas, her negatives are gone 623 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: up where she's less popular than he is in these 624 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 1: in these battleground states, and we're seen in all the 625 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: polls around the country. Well, do you think this is 626 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 1: something that is this a pre convention bump or is 627 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: this not even in any way tied to the convention? 628 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 1: I think the convention it goes through the theory that 629 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: it's going to make it much harder for Hillary to 630 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: get rid of her negatives because we've known her for 631 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: twenty five years. For twenty five years, she's been corrupt, dishonest, 632 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 1: unethical wise, and whether it's travel Gate or whether it's 633 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: white Water, or now it's it's the service scandal. And 634 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 1: plus the FBI didn't comment on whether there's an ongoing 635 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: investigation into the Clinton foundation donations. So and the fix 636 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: was in. Everybody knows that the majority voters thinks you 637 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: should have been prosecuted. So the character problems on her 638 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: part are not going away, while Trump is using this 639 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 1: time to actually let his negatives go away and try 640 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 1: to build some favorable There seems to be a lot 641 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: more discipline in the Trump campaign, everything from tweeting and 642 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: social media, using a teleprompter more. There seems to be 643 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: a lot a lot has changed in the Trump campaign. 644 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 1: It's clearly to get more serious and he's a as 645 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: you know. You know, I'm working for him now and 646 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: doing doing some state work on his polling team. But 647 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 1: whenever I met with him, he listens to good advice. 648 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 1: And it's pretty clear that he was getting burned by 649 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: some of the media coverage at certain things, so that 650 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: the extra discipline by saying less and doing less, he's 651 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: getting more. Like the two days ago, the story was 652 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 1: he's the law in order candidate at the right time, 653 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: and he was, he was, he was, His remarks were 654 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: on target. They were the most majority Americans that that 655 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 1: person could be a leader of that person could be president. 656 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 1: All right, let me ask about the events. But when 657 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 1: you have an incident like what happened in Orlando, you 658 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 1: have terror attacks, you have cops being assassinated, and you 659 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: have a president that plays racial politics, I mean, I 660 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,840 Speaker 1: can't believe all the times, whether there's a high profile 661 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: case that's racial, he speaks out and he gets involved, 662 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: and he does so without any evidence or due process. 663 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 1: And meanwhile, he ignores the three thousand, four and seventy 664 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: two murders in Chicago just during the time that he's 665 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: been president. He only mentioned that nine times. And then 666 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: Hillary seems to agree with them on the Black Lives 667 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: Matter movement, which you know, they're shouting and chanting pigs 668 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 1: in a blanket, prim like bacon and and things like 669 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: what do we want dead cops? When do we want them? Now? 670 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: Is this going to impact the electoral base? I don't 671 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: think there's any question about that showing that it is, 672 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: And I think, to be honest with you, that's one 673 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: of the biggest disappointments that people have right now with 674 00:37:55,320 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 1: Barack Obama, especially Republicans and Conservatives who you know, obviously 675 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 1: had disagreements the vast majority of the voted against him, 676 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: you know, and they voted for Mitt Romney in the 677 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: last election. But there was one thing we all were 678 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,439 Speaker 1: kind of as Americans. We wanted him to bring our 679 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: country together. This was a historic moment. We're electing our 680 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: first African American president, and he hasn't done that. And 681 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: I think a lot of folks rightfully feel. And you 682 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 1: saw a lot of it yesterday with the ceremony in Dallas, 683 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: and I know a lot of liberals, a lot of 684 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 1: press are saying, wasn't he wonderful? But did you notice 685 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: that George Bush spoke for about what to maybe three minutes, 686 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,760 Speaker 1: and it was all about the service of the five 687 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:42,320 Speaker 1: police officers, Whereas you have Barack Obama making the speech 688 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 1: about himself and making it about his political and his 689 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 1: issue agenda, which isn't what Americans want right now. They 690 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: want somebody who's going to bring America together. And I 691 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: think the problem is for Hillary Clinton. They think she's 692 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: just as dishonest and just as as decisive as divisive 693 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,839 Speaker 1: as us as President Obama is. Yeah. Well, it's it's 694 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: very interesting because I think the country is gonna have 695 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:10,120 Speaker 1: a very clear choice. Are You're gonna really engage radical Islam. 696 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: Are we're gonna you know, we're gonna allow more radicals 697 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 1: back into the White House because Hillary associating with black 698 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 1: lives matters. Um, she's literally trying to get advice on 699 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: criminal justice reform from them and showing one of the 700 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 1: big points that people are talking about in the uh, 701 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,000 Speaker 1: you know, in the three swing state polls is this 702 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 1: is who they say would be most effective against Issus Trump. 703 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 1: And Florida has an eighteen point advantage, In Ohio he 704 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: has an eleven point advantage, and in Pennsylvania he has 705 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,720 Speaker 1: a twelve point advantage. So these events that are happening 706 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 1: right now where people don't feel safe, it's helping and 707 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 1: you can see it working to Donald Trump's advantage. Yeah, 708 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: I think so. All right, let's talk about the states 709 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 1: that Donald Trump needs to win, and obviously Florida and 710 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 1: Ohio or right at the top of the list, but 711 00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: I think you also have to add North Carolina to 712 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,280 Speaker 1: that west. Uh. If he gets Pennsylvania, it's a game changer. 713 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: If he's able to put New Jersey and play, it's 714 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: a game changer. Um, we see that he's winning in 715 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 1: an Iowa poul that came out this week, we see 716 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: that he's doing well in New Hampshire and some other places. 717 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 1: What states must he win? John McLaughlin to become that 718 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: president of the United States, Well, I think he's putting 719 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: states in play that the Republicans have have not had 720 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: him played for a long time. And and uh, you 721 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: know I used to kid call Roves that you know 722 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: four he he was only playing in certain states and 723 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,720 Speaker 1: well after in after nine eleven, the president was popular 724 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 1: in New York, President Bush because he's done so much 725 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: for us after that Taro attack, but they chose not 726 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: to play here and we ended up losing. Um. Trump 727 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: is actually playing hard in the Northeast, whether it's Pennsylvania. 728 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: By the way, if he puts Pennsylvania in play, New Jersey, 729 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,240 Speaker 1: there's been polls that have been close to New Jersey, Connecticut, 730 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,879 Speaker 1: and there's actually talk of him playing in New York. 731 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,839 Speaker 1: So we're definitely you know, he's got support new York 732 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 1: that Republicans aren't used to seeing for decades. So the 733 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: ones that are must wins, like North Carolina's must have win, 734 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: Florida certainly, Uh, you know, he could surprise in Virginia 735 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: because you're looking at this four way ballot, and the 736 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: libertarian votes that had come away are coming away from Hillary, 737 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 1: I think. And and he's got Michigan and playing Wisconsin 738 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,439 Speaker 1: and play that people aren't used to seeing this, so 739 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: um so I think the map is bigger this time. 740 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: And and in a multi candidate race where Hillary Clinton 741 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,879 Speaker 1: has these negatives, a lot of things that were impossible 742 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: maybe in the last couple elections are very possible in 743 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: this election. What do you think, Jim, Yeah, And I 744 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: don't think there's any question to go back, you know 745 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,280 Speaker 1: what you said. I think the Republicans have to win Florida, 746 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 1: they have to win Ohio. But I think they have 747 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,600 Speaker 1: a real shot in a place like Pennsylvania, which they 748 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: have it won since And the reason the reason I 749 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 1: think they have a real shot there is a lot 750 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: of problems in the economy in Pennsylvania and they're putting 751 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,879 Speaker 1: the blame on on Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. One 752 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 1: of the questions they asked in the Quittipiac poll was 753 00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: whether folks felt that they were full behind economically, and 754 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, people think nearly two thirds of the voters 755 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: say they're falling behind economically. It was about six out 756 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: of ten in both Florida and Ohio. So all this nonsense. 757 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,760 Speaker 1: They're hearing about how wonderful the economy is and showing 758 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:19,800 Speaker 1: you're extremely articulate on this. There's over ninety million Americans 759 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: out there looking for jobs and looking for better jobs, 760 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,880 Speaker 1: and and they don't buy that five percent number that 761 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,359 Speaker 1: folks are telling us in terms of the unemployment rate 762 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: right now. I was doing some focus groups recently, and 763 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: literally when we asked folks, and these were swing voters 764 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: about the five percent unemployment rate, they laughed at us. 765 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: They said there's no way. And there were people telling us, oh, 766 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: unemployment's really They get it. They understand what's going out 767 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: there in America. And I think the ultimate politician in 768 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 1: terms of being out of touch on this is Hillary Clinton. 769 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: And that was one of the problems she had to 770 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: do to win the Democratic primary was she had to 771 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: hug the Obama economy, which was the right thing to 772 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: do to win the Democratic uh primary, but it's not 773 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: the right thing to do to win in these important battles. 774 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,399 Speaker 1: I agree he pulled a very far to the left. 775 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,320 Speaker 1: That was actually a big part of my opening monologue 776 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: yesterday because I think that's going to impact the race, 777 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: especially if the Republicans use it well. Again, a lot 778 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: of this is how people campaign. I guess the next 779 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: most important issue is in this do you think in 780 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 1: any way that any of the vice presidential names. We 781 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 1: keep hearing that apparently there was a meeting today. I 782 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 1: know there was a meeting today with new Gingrich and 783 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Also there's been two meetings with Mike Pence 784 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,439 Speaker 1: last night and today. Uh there's still talk to Chris 785 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 1: Christie is in the running, but it seems to be 786 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,280 Speaker 1: Pence versus Newt. What do you think which of those three, 787 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,479 Speaker 1: if any, helps Trump the most? John Well, I think 788 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 1: I think New brings a different level because there's a 789 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 1: strategic edge, and there's a network, and there's a reliance, 790 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: and it's a different model for a vice president in 791 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: that similar to way Obama pick Biden, so he had 792 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 1: somebody with government experience to get an agenda done because 793 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: he was a young signor from Illinois, and Bush picked 794 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 1: George W. Bush Change. And so Mike Pence is a 795 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: you know as a as a popular congressman governor in Indiana. 796 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: But new gives you that strategic edge and that that 797 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 1: national edge that it's It's like, what, Trump's a strong leader, 798 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: but now he's picking somebody that can actually help him 799 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: get his agenda done. So it's an intellectual level and 800 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 1: a policy level that I think all the Republicans would 801 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: would respect. And he's been vetted, he's been out there 802 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 1: in the national media for a long time. So I 803 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,520 Speaker 1: think that's as it's a different model, but it could 804 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 1: be very effective for him. Yeah, all right, let me 805 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 1: ask you about breaksit. You know, we've got cameraon stepping down. 806 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 1: As a result, it ends up that those that supported 807 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 1: Leave ended up fighting so much amongst each other that 808 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: they kind of pushed themselves out of the race. You 809 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: have a person that wanted to stay, Theresa May now 810 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,400 Speaker 1: the Conservative taking over as the prime minister. But what 811 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: does that vote tell us about this election? If anything, 812 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 1: I think what it tells us is people want change, 813 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 1: not just in the US but throughout the world. They 814 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 1: don't like how the economy is going, they don't feel 815 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: safe when it comes to things like terrorism. And I 816 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 1: think it's interesting because you know a lot of those 817 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:06,479 Speaker 1: Brexit polls where folks were talking about and when I 818 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: saw that, you know, the uh, the Leave was, you know, 819 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 1: or the stay was below. That's when I thought that 820 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 1: the exit vote had a real chance at winning because 821 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,719 Speaker 1: the vast majority of those undecided. I thought, we're going 822 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 1: to vote to leave. And I think you're going to 823 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 1: see the same kind of dynamic in this presidential election, 824 00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 1: where a lot of these undecided voters where they're telling 825 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 1: you more than Sevre saying, the country's off on the 826 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: wrong track. And they know Hillary Clinton, they've known her 827 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 1: for twenty five years. I think the fact that Hillary 828 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 1: Clinton a lot of these polls is in the load 829 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 1: of mid forties, she's not going to get the vast 830 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: majority of those undecided, and I think they're they're much 831 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 1: more prone to go to Donald Trump. And one thing 832 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 1: I gotta give your credit for Sean. Last year when 833 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 1: we were working, when we were working for nin Yahoo, 834 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,799 Speaker 1: you were the one who helped us break stories at 835 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 1: the Senate. US Senate yesterday issued a report saying that 836 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: the Obama administration their state department, had given three fifty 837 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:02,240 Speaker 1: thou dollars to was superpack that was out to beat NYA. 838 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: And you were the one who actually covered the story 839 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 1: a year ago. And now the US including and by 840 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 1: the way, and they were up they were up to 841 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,359 Speaker 1: their eyeballs. We had the we you and I broke 842 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: the story together in fairness that in fact, Obama operatives 843 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: campaign operators were on the ground trying to defeat BB. 844 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 1: Now we find out taxpayer money was used to try 845 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 1: and defeat BB and this kind of security issue where 846 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 1: we don't know our friends from our enemies right now, 847 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a huge advantage for Donald Trump to 848 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 1: open up a security issue and attract security moms and 849 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: security voters to the Republican Party. All right, guys, you're 850 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: both terrific, Well at least one of you are. John, 851 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:41,279 Speaker 1: Thank you, Jim, well whatever, thank you guys. For me, 852 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,359 Speaker 1: I want to appreciate it. Well, they're brothers. They pick 853 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: on each other. So it's okay. Federal and state level, Um, 854 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 1: there are a number of ways in which that could 855 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: be found. There's a difference between prosecuting something and whether 856 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:57,280 Speaker 1: it's legal or illegal. You know, these questions are pretty simple, 857 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 1: and you've got millions of people with security clearance. How 858 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: are they supposed to go through the gyrations that you've 859 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 1: laid out in order to make a simple determination. Congressman, 860 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: if we had a specific fact situation, a fact pattern 861 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 1: that could be reviewed. I'm just come to a hypothetical situation. 862 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: It would be unfair to come up with a blanket 863 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 1: to answer to someone without reviewing all the facts of 864 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,880 Speaker 1: their situation. I'm asking if it's legal or illegal to 865 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 1: share classified information with somebody who doesn't have a security clearance. Again, 866 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 1: i would refer you to the appropriate statutes, and I'd 867 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 1: refer you to the facts of every situation. It would 868 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 1: be unfair to give a blanket answer to every hypothetical. 869 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:36,440 Speaker 1: Why aren't we telling all the federal employees and contractors 870 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 1: who have access to classified information, those in our military, 871 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 1: Why aren't we telling them you can't do this, it's 872 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 1: against the law. Why can't you say that we give 873 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 1: them guidance again, every agency does. We give them examples, 874 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 1: We give them information as to how to make those decisions. 875 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:55,280 Speaker 1: We show them all right. That was the Attorney General, 876 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 1: Loretta Lynch Jason Chab It's the head of the uh 877 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: one of the committees like us, the House Government Reform 878 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 1: and Oversight Committee. She refused to answer questions over what 879 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 1: seventy four times now Congressman David trod came to the 880 00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:11,719 Speaker 1: conclusion that Lauretta Lynch's testimony was one big waste of time, 881 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 1: as you could just hear right there either the statute, 882 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,720 Speaker 1: she's the attorney general, She's the one who that would 883 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 1: prosecute somebody if they break the law. She's asked very 884 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:27,319 Speaker 1: simple questions in that case, can you share classified information 885 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 1: if somebody does not have clearance for that information? And 886 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,760 Speaker 1: the answers obviously no, And that would violate the law. 887 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,760 Speaker 1: That would be a penalty, that would the statute would 888 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:42,240 Speaker 1: be broken by that individual. The law would be broken. Anyway, 889 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 1: we've got that on the dock. And also, if I 890 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 1: guess Ruth pader Ginsburg wants to be Rachel Matt, I'll 891 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:49,440 Speaker 1: get into that in a second. But joining us is 892 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 1: Ken Paxton. He's the Attorney general for Texas Alberto Gonzalez, 893 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 1: author of the forthcoming book Truth, Faith, Allegiance, And of 894 00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:00,719 Speaker 1: course he's the former United States Attorney General, appointed in 895 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,400 Speaker 1: February of oh five by George W. Bush. Thank you 896 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 1: all for being with us. Can I know you were 897 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 1: at the memorial service yesterday. We've said it before, I 898 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: can't say it enough. Our thoughts and prayers go out 899 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 1: to our friends in Dallas and the families and the 900 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:16,880 Speaker 1: police officers and their families and everybody that's been suffering. 901 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,799 Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us in this tough time. Hey, 902 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: thanks for having me on. And I would say, you know, 903 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 1: Dallas is really coming together. I've been really impressed with 904 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 1: how the police chief, how Dallas police officers handled themselves, 905 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 1: and how the community has stepped up to support the 906 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:35,439 Speaker 1: Dallas police officers, and how well I think we've done 907 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:39,200 Speaker 1: with this terrible, horrific situation. Yeah, it really is so 908 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 1: sad and so tragic when you have somebody said, oh, 909 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,439 Speaker 1: I want to kill white people. I want to kill 910 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 1: I want to kill uh other people, you know, I 911 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,920 Speaker 1: want to kill white police officers. Let me ask you 912 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,719 Speaker 1: bout Yeah. I was just say, it's just really it's shot. 913 00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:55,800 Speaker 1: It was shocking. You know. I used to work across 914 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 1: the street from where that incident occurred, and for me, 915 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,279 Speaker 1: it was surreal the morning after it happened to be 916 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 1: down there with hundreds of policemen and and realize that 917 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,959 Speaker 1: it happened in my backyard. You just don't expect that. Yeah, 918 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,879 Speaker 1: it's so sad and it's so tragic, and it's so unnecessary, 919 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 1: and the rhetoric by black lives matter and the support 920 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 1: they get from people like President Obama and Ellery Clinton 921 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: really discussed me. What's your reaction to that part. I 922 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:22,880 Speaker 1: totally agree with that. You know, I was at the 923 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 1: memorial services. It's really awesome. President Booe did a great job, 924 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 1: John Corny did a great job. Obviously, Police Brown and 925 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: the mayor did a great job. And and actually Barack 926 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,280 Speaker 1: Obama was headed in the right direction until he started 927 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 1: into the political stuff, which I thought was uncalled for 928 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 1: at a memorial service when you have the families there 929 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 1: and you have over a thousand police officers. Yeah, um, 930 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:49,360 Speaker 1: I saw that. That's impressive. But it also brings the 931 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: magnitude of what happened to reality, and that's really sad. 932 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 1: Let me ask you about the Attorney General not answering 933 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,400 Speaker 1: questions seventy four times yesterday. What's your reaction, you know, 934 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,120 Speaker 1: I think it's see it, but it's not surprising to me. Obviously, 935 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 1: they're trying to avoid answering questions because it relates to 936 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,240 Speaker 1: a candidate that they want to be the next president. 937 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 1: So I think most people understand that she she crossed 938 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 1: law and she broke the law, and they're they're protecting her. Yeah. 939 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,880 Speaker 1: What is your reaction to that, Alberto Gonzalez, you're a 940 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 1: former attorney general. If you were asked the question that 941 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: she was asked by Jason Chaffitz, what would your answer 942 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 1: a been. Well, I think I would have said, first 943 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,760 Speaker 1: of all, I need to review the evidence. Uh what 944 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 1: the question that I have is, you, guys, the FBI 945 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 1: director an essence of doing investigation, collecting the evidence, and 946 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 1: then weighing that evidence and making a determination. He calls 947 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:43,240 Speaker 1: it a recommendation. It sounds, for all intents and purposes, 948 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 1: as if he's the one that made the decision not 949 00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:48,759 Speaker 1: to prosecute. And that's not a job. That's the job 950 00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 1: of the attorney general. But of course, before the attorney 951 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 1: general can do that, she has to see the evidence 952 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:57,720 Speaker 1: and way the evidence. And I don't know whether she's 953 00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 1: done that. And that's the thing that really bothers me 954 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: because that means that we have no way of checking 955 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:06,160 Speaker 1: or double checking the work of the FBI, the judgment 956 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 1: of the FBI director. And I'm not casting expersions on 957 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,280 Speaker 1: Jim Comey, but uh, that's not the way our system works. 958 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 1: You've got the property invest scares in the prosecutors and 959 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:17,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure they both did their jobs in this 960 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: specific case. That and that's what really troubles me. So 961 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:22,399 Speaker 1: if you didn't review the evidence, I can see why 962 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:25,440 Speaker 1: she couldn't answer the questions. So, I mean, I think 963 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: there are a lot of a lot of unanswered questions here. Yeah, well, 964 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 1: I don't you think because you look at the laws, 965 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 1: you understand the law, and you heard James comey explanation, 966 00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 1: his explanation on all of this, did you find that credible? 967 00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: Didn't it seem like the thirteen minutes he was laying 968 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:43,719 Speaker 1: out the case of somebody that broke the law? I 969 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,359 Speaker 1: thought that given his introduction, I thought he was going 970 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,960 Speaker 1: to conclude with the statements that that they found it enough. 971 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 1: Because again, the standards, simply to diet is you believe 972 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 1: that the crime has probably occurred. And I think, give 973 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 1: him what he laid out, uh, that that's probably the 974 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:05,759 Speaker 1: standards been met. But again, you know, without seeing the evidence. Yeah, 975 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 1: I'm not going to rely upon a press conference, fifty 976 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:11,440 Speaker 1: minute press conference, or even even a congressional testimony in saying, 977 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 1: based on this the law was broken. I wanted to 978 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:17,360 Speaker 1: see the evidence, as the attorney general, to see and 979 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:20,000 Speaker 1: make a determination whether or not I agree with you, 980 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,319 Speaker 1: I disagree with you, whatever, whatever your judgment is. As 981 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,440 Speaker 1: attorney general, your job is to prosecute longdoling when the 982 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 1: evidence is there. In your judgment, Ken Paxton, did you 983 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 1: see laws broken in this case? Well, I would say 984 00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 1: that it definitely was worth looking at. Again, I think 985 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 1: the Attorney General got it right. It's probable cause. I 986 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 1: believe there's enough here for them to pursue that this 987 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 1: particular action by by Hillary Clinton. So yeah, I think 988 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 1: we have enough. I think there's enough here for probable cause. 989 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 1: Let me go to Ruth Bader Ginsburg. We have comments 990 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 1: that she had made recently. She's eighty three years old. 991 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 1: She told the Associated Press that she assumed that Democrat 992 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton will win in the November election. Asked what 993 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: would happen if Trump won instead, she said, well, I 994 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:08,319 Speaker 1: don't want to think about that possibility, but if it 995 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 1: should be, then everything is up for grabs. Now to 996 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:15,320 Speaker 1: the New York Times, Justice Ginneberg made even more clear 997 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:18,440 Speaker 1: her distaste for Donald Trump. I can't imagine what this 998 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,160 Speaker 1: place would be. I can't imagine what the country would 999 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:24,560 Speaker 1: be with Donald Trump as our president. For the country, 1000 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,360 Speaker 1: it could be four years for the court. It could 1001 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 1: be I don't even want to contemplate that. And then 1002 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 1: she wasn't done, she said, in fact, she went out 1003 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: of her way to make it very clear that her 1004 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: criticism of Trump was not the result of an unguarded moment, 1005 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 1: because then she told to see an end reporter, he's 1006 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,160 Speaker 1: a faker. She said, he has no consistency about him. 1007 00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 1: He says whatever comes into his head at the moment. 1008 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 1: And she said, he really has an ego. How has 1009 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:52,320 Speaker 1: he gotten away with with not turning over his tax returns? 1010 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 1: The press seems to be very gentle about that to him, 1011 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,839 Speaker 1: and um, she goes on and on. Do you think 1012 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:04,480 Speaker 1: that it's appropriate, Alberto Gonzalez No, I think I think 1013 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: her comments were very inappropriate. I think they hurt the 1014 00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: in the Court as an institution. And and you know, 1015 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,280 Speaker 1: the cannons judicial canons don't apply to the Supreme Court 1016 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 1: with respect to making these kind of political comments. But 1017 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 1: because they because they don't, I think justice have an 1018 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 1: even greater obligation to be careful in the words that 1019 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 1: I use, because your job is to dispense justice and 1020 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,839 Speaker 1: that you know, the integrity of the court is so 1021 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 1: important for the American people, and when you make these 1022 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 1: kind of comments, I think it really hurts the court. Yeah, 1023 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 1: what do you think if I can ask you, Ken Paxton, Sure, 1024 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:43,960 Speaker 1: and I agree with those comments. I would also added 1025 00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 1: it's you don't typically see judges making comments about political races, 1026 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:52,280 Speaker 1: especially U Supreme Court judges, So it's really it's highly unusual. 1027 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:55,400 Speaker 1: I don't recall it in my time and practicing law, 1028 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:57,960 Speaker 1: a judge stepping out and speaking out at a political rights. 1029 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:02,239 Speaker 1: It's just very unusual and think very inappropriate. All right, 1030 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 1: I want to thank you both for being with us, 1031 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,359 Speaker 1: who really appreciate your time and your insight. And uh 1032 00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,719 Speaker 1: Alberto Gonzalez has been a long time. Thank you for 1033 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 1: your time and your service to your country. Look forward 1034 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,960 Speaker 1: to your book, Truth, Faith and Allegiance. And Ken Paxton, again, 1035 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:15,880 Speaker 1: I thought some prayers go out to the people of 1036 00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:18,800 Speaker 1: Dallas and all the people of Texas. They're all friends 1037 00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,400 Speaker 1: of ours and they're all in our prayers. Thank you, 1038 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,160 Speaker 1: Thank you, all right, eight nine for one Sean, we'll 1039 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:26,040 Speaker 1: take calls now for the rest of the program today. 1040 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 1: Stephen is in Oklahoma. Stephen High, how are you? And 1041 00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:31,839 Speaker 1: we're glad you called sir Sean, how are you doing. 1042 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:34,600 Speaker 1: I'm good. What's going on? Well, So, I've seen a 1043 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 1: lot of people talk about you know, new gain Rich 1044 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 1: for Vice President. I know you're a big fan of him, 1045 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,040 Speaker 1: and so am I. You know, I think he seems 1046 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 1: like a very valid person to fill that VP slaw. 1047 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 1: But you know, I've seen a lot about Allan West. 1048 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:49,480 Speaker 1: You know, and he's an African American. He's prior service 1049 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 1: lieutenant colonel. Uh. You know, he's spent time in Iraq. Uh, 1050 00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,120 Speaker 1: He's Republican, was in Florida. I was just curious when 1051 00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 1: nothing's ever really come up about him. You know, I 1052 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,799 Speaker 1: think Allen West is a Rocks Tar. I'm a big 1053 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 1: fan of Colonel West. Um. I've talked about, for example, 1054 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 1: a team of rivals, in other words, naming Rudy Giuliani 1055 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,480 Speaker 1: and Chris Christie and Ben Carson and Pam Bondi and 1056 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:14,319 Speaker 1: maybe Bobby Jindal. Uh. You know, any of these people 1057 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 1: that are available. I think Allen West could be included 1058 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 1: in that. I think General Flynn could be included in that. 1059 00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:22,080 Speaker 1: Those that list of people would be great. Yeah, you know, 1060 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 1: and I was just thinking of uh not to not 1061 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 1: to you know, but Alan West, you know, he would 1062 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,880 Speaker 1: bring the potential to the block vote and all all 1063 00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 1: of these uh you know, African Americans, I think that 1064 00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 1: would be maybe feel like they could associate with him 1065 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 1: a lot better than new Gingrich. Do you, I mean, 1066 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:38,240 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on that? Well, Listen, I like 1067 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: New Gingrich. I think Gingridge would be a great VP 1068 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:44,160 Speaker 1: because I think he would prosecute the case best against Hillary. 1069 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: I also think he's a great political strategist that I 1070 00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 1: also think he has the ability to navigate around Congress, 1071 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: and I think he could lay out a very very 1072 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 1: powerful case for Trump because he's so bright, He's a 1073 00:57:55,880 --> 00:58:00,560 Speaker 1: great intellectual. He's also somebody that believes in transformation change, 1074 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 1: which is what I think we need. I don't think 1075 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 1: it's time to just you know, tap around the edges. 1076 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: I want to see a dramatic shift in the country 1077 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 1: back to its founding principles. And to do that that 1078 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,320 Speaker 1: means limited government. To do that. Yeah, I want the 1079 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 1: border wall built, and I can go through my whole list. 1080 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 1: I want the budget balance, I want Obamacare dismantled and 1081 00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 1: health savings accounts and competition. I want energy independence, I 1082 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:28,400 Speaker 1: want choice and education. I want to help vets and 1083 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 1: fix the broken v A. I want a strong policy 1084 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 1: that identifies radical Islam as the enemy of the free 1085 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 1: world and the force and the decision making capability to 1086 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 1: fight it and defeat it. So, you know what, that's 1087 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 1: not a time for somebody that's just gonna, you know, 1088 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,360 Speaker 1: tinkle around the edges a little bit. I think it's 1089 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 1: time to really get in, dig in deep, and be transformational, 1090 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 1: bold and strong. Mark is in Lexington, Kentucky. Mark, how 1091 00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:59,440 Speaker 1: are you? Thanks for having me on what's going on? Well? 1092 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 1: I would love the idea of Nute being VP, if 1093 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 1: for no other reasons, the Clinton's, excuse me, are notorious 1094 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 1: for trying to take credit for the prosperity of the nineties. 1095 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: Every policy that helped it, along of new was responsible for. 1096 00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:22,000 Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, Bill Clinton signed those bills 1097 00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:26,320 Speaker 1: well for reform, balanced budgets, kicking and screaming, and knew 1098 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,240 Speaker 1: it would be able to give chapter and verse of 1099 00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 1: how she and her husband rejected this stuff and had 1100 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,520 Speaker 1: to be force fedded. I would just so much be 1101 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 1: love to see that. All right, appreciate it. You're on record. 1102 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:41,480 Speaker 1: We got you down, Pat. Let's go to Douglas and 1103 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: Colorado Douglas. We have a minute. It's all yours. Go ahead, sir. Actually, 1104 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,400 Speaker 1: I thanks ticking my call. I wanted to setch briefly. 1105 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: You know about General Flynn as a VP candidate, and 1106 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 1: you know, we've talked a lot about how we need 1107 00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:55,800 Speaker 1: kind of a strong representative within the White House, and 1108 00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 1: I don't think he's it. I mean, you got to 1109 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,800 Speaker 1: look at these top military officers. They are very epitome 1110 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:04,160 Speaker 1: of what bureaucracy within you know, the system is. These 1111 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 1: guys very little time actually spent on the grounds around people, 1112 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 1: and I really think that's going to translate into a 1113 01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 1: VP somebody who's supposed to be representative or even the 1114 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 1: voice of Donald Trump. Yeah, I think the lack of 1115 01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:17,480 Speaker 1: political experience would wouldn't help Trump, but I also think 1116 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:20,240 Speaker 1: the lack of economic experience. If we have, I think 1117 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,480 Speaker 1: the odds are probably pretty good we have another two 1118 01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 1: thousand and eight or worse coming. Unfortunately, listen, I wish 1119 01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: I was wrong. I wish I wish I was so wrong, 1120 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 1: but I don't think I am. Unfortunately. Alright, eight one, Shawn, 1121 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:36,000 Speaker 1: if you want to be a part of the program, 1122 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:37,920 Speaker 1: we'll take a quick break when we come back, wide 1123 01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:40,680 Speaker 1: open telephones eight D nine for one, Shawn, if you 1124 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:49,360 Speaker 1: want to join us, the biggest newsmakers, the best coverage, 1125 01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 1: and the issues you care about every single day, This 1126 01:00:54,840 --> 01:01:00,800 Speaker 1: is the Sean Hannity Show. Races have improved dramatically in 1127 01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 1: my lifetime. Those who deny it are dishonoring the struggles 1128 01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:12,600 Speaker 1: that helped us achieve that progress. But we know, but America, 1129 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:16,560 Speaker 1: we know the bias remains. We know it. Whether you 1130 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:19,440 Speaker 1: are black or white, or Hispanic or Asian, or Native 1131 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:23,200 Speaker 1: American or of Middle Eastern descent, we have all seen 1132 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:25,920 Speaker 1: this bigotry in our own lives at some point. We 1133 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:29,560 Speaker 1: heard it at times in our own homes. If we're honest, 1134 01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 1: perhaps we've heard prejudice in our own heads and felt 1135 01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 1: it in our own hearts. We know that, and while 1136 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:41,640 Speaker 1: some suffer far more under racism's burden, some feel to 1137 01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 1: a far greater extent discrimination state. Although most of us 1138 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 1: do our best to guard against it and teach our 1139 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 1: children better, none of us is entirely innocent. No institution 1140 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:56,480 Speaker 1: is entirely immune, and that includes our police departments. We 1141 01:01:56,560 --> 01:02:09,240 Speaker 1: know this. I'm dealing with a bit guilt because because 1142 01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:15,000 Speaker 1: I don't feel I don't feel sad for the officers 1143 01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:17,640 Speaker 1: that lost their lives, and I know that that's really 1144 01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 1: not my heart. I value value human life and I 1145 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,800 Speaker 1: want to feel sad for them, But I can't help 1146 01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:36,720 Speaker 1: but feeling like the shooter was a martyr. And I 1147 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:39,200 Speaker 1: know it's not the right way to feel, because nobody 1148 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 1: deserves to lose their lives. I'm so torn up in 1149 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:47,080 Speaker 1: my heart about seeing these men, these black men, being 1150 01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:50,240 Speaker 1: gunned down in our community. I can't help but feel 1151 01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:57,800 Speaker 1: like I wasn't surprised by what the shooter did to 1152 01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 1: those Gods. Believe that the shooter is a martyr, like 1153 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 1: you said, do you no? I do not, no, not 1154 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:07,640 Speaker 1: in any way. I think that the shooter was evil. 1155 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:12,960 Speaker 1: I think he killed innocent. He's like he was a terrorist. 1156 01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 1: But you called him a martyr. Why well, you know 1157 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 1: a lot of the people, the terrorists. That's how terrorism 1158 01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:21,160 Speaker 1: is born. You know, when you think about people in 1159 01:03:21,200 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 1: other countries who believe and and and religions use this 1160 01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 1: rhetoric to to to convince them that going out and 1161 01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 1: killing people is right for their cause. They said, you're 1162 01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:32,320 Speaker 1: gonna be a martyr, And I believe that that's what 1163 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:35,400 Speaker 1: Michael Johnson really thought. But he's not a martyr. To 1164 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 1: to me, he's not. He doesn't represent my feelings, he 1165 01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:42,720 Speaker 1: doesn't represent my cause. I would never ever condone or 1166 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:50,480 Speaker 1: support anyone people, whether they are whether they are civilians. 1167 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:54,400 Speaker 1: People don't watch the video. People people like they should 1168 01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:57,720 Speaker 1: really watch the video. Al Right. That was from my 1169 01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 1: TV show last night. That was a former h the 1170 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:04,240 Speaker 1: first black Miss Alabama, and she was the one that 1171 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 1: called the killer of these police officers a martyr. The 1172 01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:10,920 Speaker 1: name is Klin Chapman James, and I challenged her on 1173 01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 1: last last night on TV. There was a really sad 1174 01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 1: story in The Blaze today about one of the cops 1175 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,160 Speaker 1: that got killed and he and his nine year old 1176 01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:22,560 Speaker 1: daughter had an exchange just before she went she was 1177 01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,080 Speaker 1: going to a movie, he was going to work. And 1178 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 1: the father actually said, and the daughter recounted this, that well, 1179 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,120 Speaker 1: what if this is the last time you ever kissed 1180 01:04:31,160 --> 01:04:34,120 Speaker 1: me or hug me, she said in an interview with 1181 01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:37,920 Speaker 1: CBS News. But of course people like Kalin when she 1182 01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:40,040 Speaker 1: made the comment, I don't care about these people. I 1183 01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 1: don't care that they're dad. What about this nine year 1184 01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:44,720 Speaker 1: old girl that will never see the father she loved. 1185 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 1: Ever again. By the way, in Baton Rouge, we have 1186 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:50,480 Speaker 1: three arrested in a plot to kill police officers. There 1187 01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 1: all part of this ongoing assault against police officers all 1188 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 1: around the country and the obsession now to pull off 1189 01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:01,480 Speaker 1: all of this madness on video lie video streaming. He 1190 01:05:01,600 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 1: had a man recorded himself apparently inadvertently in this case, 1191 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:08,959 Speaker 1: and two others being gunned down in Norfolk, Virginia during 1192 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 1: a live Facebook broadcast. Well he had that woman where 1193 01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:16,919 Speaker 1: was that Minneapolis? And her boyfriend is shot. It's unbelievable 1194 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 1: to me. And she's sitting there just narrating, not helping 1195 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,920 Speaker 1: the boyfriend. It was another video that I saw. I 1196 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 1: think I got this off of Breitbart. Pretty amazing video. 1197 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,640 Speaker 1: There was a police officer confronted by a woman yelling 1198 01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 1: at him where you came from? Didn't come out of 1199 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 1: my mouth? Screaming at him why And Copple asked, very calmly, 1200 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 1: why are you so angry because you're dumb. The protester 1201 01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:44,600 Speaker 1: gets in his grill, Well, anyway, I sat in the back. 1202 01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 1: You're still dumb, and the officer smiles. That's what they 1203 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:51,400 Speaker 1: put up with every day. You have a California councilwoman 1204 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,600 Speaker 1: under pressure to resign over her now deleted Facebook post 1205 01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 1: on the Dallas shooting. It's unbelievable the things that have 1206 01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:02,840 Speaker 1: been written. And there's five statistics out there. Cops are 1207 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 1: killed nearly twice as many whites as blacks, and more 1208 01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:10,960 Speaker 1: whites and Hispanics die from police homicide than blacks. The 1209 01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:14,840 Speaker 1: post data showed that unarmed black men are more likely 1210 01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,720 Speaker 1: to die by the gun of a cop than an 1211 01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:21,080 Speaker 1: unarmed white man, but this doesn't tell the whole story. 1212 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:23,920 Speaker 1: The ratio was seven to one on unarmed black men 1213 01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:27,520 Speaker 1: dying from police gunshots compared to unarmed white men. The 1214 01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:31,120 Speaker 1: ratio was six to one. By the other words, pretty 1215 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 1: close in terms of numbers. But Heather McDonald pointed out 1216 01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:37,400 Speaker 1: in the Marshall Project they looked at this. The unarmed 1217 01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:41,280 Speaker 1: label is literally accurate, but it frequently fails to convey 1218 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 1: these highly charged police situations. So there is context and 1219 01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 1: there is textured to all of this. And he had 1220 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:50,560 Speaker 1: a Black Lives Matter of supporter through a concrete planter 1221 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 1: through an officer's window and in that case got shot 1222 01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:57,320 Speaker 1: as he was assaulting the officer. And then I told 1223 01:06:57,360 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 1: you about the Facebook post by Black Live Matter Dallas. 1224 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:04,439 Speaker 1: Good morning in loeuis last night's murders of the five 1225 01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 1: Dallas officers. It is what it is justified. These killer 1226 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,240 Speaker 1: cops have been killing our black men and women every 1227 01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 1: day and getting away with it. I have no sympathy 1228 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:18,280 Speaker 1: whatsoever for those cops, their lives, nor their families. You 1229 01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:20,840 Speaker 1: don't give a damn when it's our Black men and 1230 01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 1: women that they're slaughtering. What's good for the goose is 1231 01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:27,440 Speaker 1: good for the gander, and it goes on and on. Anyway, 1232 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 1: joining us to comment further on all of this, we 1233 01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:32,880 Speaker 1: have the Reverend Jessie Lee Peterson. He is the UH. 1234 01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,600 Speaker 1: He has the website Rebuilding the Man dot com, author 1235 01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:38,960 Speaker 1: of the book The Antidote Healing America from the poison 1236 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:42,320 Speaker 1: of hate, blame and victim Hood. Also, Dr Ron Martinelli 1237 01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:44,720 Speaker 1: is with us the truth behind Black Lives Matter and 1238 01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:47,400 Speaker 1: the movement and the war on police. Thanks both of 1239 01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 1: you for being here. Why why, Reverend jesse Lee Peterson, 1240 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,520 Speaker 1: If a group chance pigs in a blanket frime like 1241 01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 1: bacon and they chant, what do we want dead cops? 1242 01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: When do we want them? Now? Why does the president 1243 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 1: in the case of Obama or presidential candidate in the 1244 01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:07,400 Speaker 1: case of Hillary, why did they bringing these people to 1245 01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:11,160 Speaker 1: the White House and why do they seek these people's approval? 1246 01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:15,960 Speaker 1: Because um, they desire powering wealth, and the way you 1247 01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:20,679 Speaker 1: gain at is by intimidating white people and using Black 1248 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 1: Americans in their state of anger. As I said night 1249 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 1: before Laves on Fox Megan Kelly Show, is that Black 1250 01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:31,000 Speaker 1: Americans are angry, not all, but most. But the anger 1251 01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 1: starts in the home, Sean, and it starts because they 1252 01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,080 Speaker 1: are growing up. They're they're coming into a family where 1253 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 1: the fathers are not there, and these boys and girls 1254 01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 1: are growing up empty. And then as I love, they 1255 01:08:41,479 --> 01:08:43,200 Speaker 1: look for the love of their fathers. But they have 1256 01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:45,400 Speaker 1: been told that it's the white man. And we have 1257 01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:48,040 Speaker 1: allowed this to happen for the last sixty years or so. 1258 01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:51,360 Speaker 1: Started with this so called civil rights movement, Jesse Jackson 1259 01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 1: and others have been promoting that white people hate black people, 1260 01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:58,080 Speaker 1: that they're holding them down. And instead of white Americans 1261 01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:00,759 Speaker 1: standing up and saying no to that, they have caved 1262 01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:03,880 Speaker 1: in and given money and power and wealth to Jester 1263 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,400 Speaker 1: Jackson and others. And now we have generations and generation 1264 01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:10,600 Speaker 1: of black people who actually believe in that state of 1265 01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,559 Speaker 1: anger that white people are their problem. The terror shooter 1266 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 1: said it. He made it clear. He said that he 1267 01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:20,400 Speaker 1: was killing the police officers because he hate white people 1268 01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:23,719 Speaker 1: and especially white cops. And if you hear that over 1269 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:26,920 Speaker 1: and over and over again, especially by the President of 1270 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:29,640 Speaker 1: the United States of American, then what are they're going 1271 01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:32,360 Speaker 1: to believe? In that state of anger? And Barack Obama 1272 01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:36,640 Speaker 1: has created an environment of chaos. He's divided this country. 1273 01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:40,200 Speaker 1: This uh the black son the white more than any 1274 01:09:40,240 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 1: other person in the history of America. And he knows 1275 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:48,120 Speaker 1: exactly what he's doing. And for Barack Obama to speak 1276 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:51,080 Speaker 1: at the funeral of those officers who were killed by 1277 01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 1: the terrorists and then take that opportunity to that moment 1278 01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 1: to make a political statement for his own personal gain 1279 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:02,080 Speaker 1: was evil. Sean Baraco Bamba brought up gun control at 1280 01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:05,840 Speaker 1: the officer's funeral, He brought up the justice system was 1281 01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:09,439 Speaker 1: not fair to black people, and brought up black lives matter. 1282 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 1: For that man to do that, if white Americas don't 1283 01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 1: understand and good black votes, if they don't see the 1284 01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 1: evil in Barack Obama and what he's doing and don't 1285 01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:21,759 Speaker 1: stand up and say no to this. We are in trouble. 1286 01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:25,759 Speaker 1: Barack Obama is going to be there until Dec. January 1287 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 1: or next year. We this incident that happened. Let let 1288 01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:33,320 Speaker 1: me bring back Martinelli. We haven't anything. I know. I 1289 01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:35,240 Speaker 1: think it's good. I think things are really bad. I 1290 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:38,280 Speaker 1: really believe that. Anyway, um Dr Martinel that you want 1291 01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:41,559 Speaker 1: to weigh in, yes, I do. I agree with pretty 1292 01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:44,519 Speaker 1: much everything the reperd is is stated that the problem 1293 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 1: that I see is is a parent of criminologist that 1294 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 1: you know investigates about a quarter of these high profile 1295 01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:54,680 Speaker 1: national shootings UH is that the public, from politicians on 1296 01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:58,360 Speaker 1: the federal level all the way down UH to to 1297 01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:02,160 Speaker 1: the street level people, they have an emotional reaction instead 1298 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:07,120 Speaker 1: of a studied, forensic, and informed response to the circumstances 1299 01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:10,400 Speaker 1: of these officers involved depth cases. You know, the President 1300 01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:14,320 Speaker 1: himself did an assessment on four the private cases Trayvon Martin, 1301 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:17,760 Speaker 1: Michael Brown, pretty gray to mirror rights, and he was 1302 01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:21,879 Speaker 1: wrong four out of four times. What we have now 1303 01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:24,920 Speaker 1: is we have the Black Lives Matter movement, which is 1304 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:29,679 Speaker 1: a hardcore nationalist Marxist revolutionary movement. There is no doubt 1305 01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 1: about it. Who is manipulating a lot of the uninformed 1306 01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:38,920 Speaker 1: black UH community, and they are manipulating these people. And 1307 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,320 Speaker 1: it's divided between two groups, those in the Black Lives 1308 01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 1: Matters that are the hardcore black nationalist militants, and then 1309 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:49,559 Speaker 1: you have the manipulated followers that don't know enough about this. 1310 01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 1: In my book that's available on Amazon dot com, The 1311 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:55,439 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter Movement, I discuss all of these cases, 1312 01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:59,040 Speaker 1: the founding members of the movement, all the funding UH. 1313 01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 1: We have traced them to Northern Ireland, we have traced 1314 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:06,040 Speaker 1: them to Hamas, we have traced them to Africa, revolutionary 1315 01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:08,879 Speaker 1: movements in Cuba, and the people need to ask themselves, 1316 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,080 Speaker 1: why are the founding members in their circuits going to 1317 01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 1: these countries and meeting with these revolutionary people. You know 1318 01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:18,640 Speaker 1: another thing about that to add Barack Obama. When that 1319 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:21,840 Speaker 1: situation happened with Trayvon Martin, he said, if I had 1320 01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:25,720 Speaker 1: a son, he would look like Trayvon with the professor 1321 01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:28,960 Speaker 1: and UH Boston or in Massachusetts, he said, the cops 1322 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:32,519 Speaker 1: at the stupidly. One other example is in UH when 1323 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:35,400 Speaker 1: he said the hands up, don't shoot. All those things 1324 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:38,920 Speaker 1: were lies, They were not true at all. But Obama 1325 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 1: did not come back and said, hey, I was wrong. Uh, 1326 01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:46,160 Speaker 1: let's calm down, Let's not do this. I was wrong. 1327 01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:49,439 Speaker 1: He is not apologized for any of those things, and 1328 01:12:49,520 --> 01:12:52,599 Speaker 1: yet he keeps pretending that there's such a thing as 1329 01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:56,720 Speaker 1: white folks hating black people, feeding into that anger so 1330 01:12:56,840 --> 01:12:59,240 Speaker 1: that he could get the results that he he is 1331 01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 1: uh get in. Even a new Black pather party said 1332 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 1: the other day that they're going down to Ohio and 1333 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:08,439 Speaker 1: they're gonna wear their guns. They're gonna have guns because 1334 01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:10,679 Speaker 1: you can do it in Ohio. No one is saying 1335 01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:14,559 Speaker 1: anything about that. These people are hateful, dangerous people and 1336 01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 1: anything can happen out there because white Americans are not 1337 01:13:17,439 --> 01:13:20,639 Speaker 1: gonna put up with this mice longer, especially what's happened 1338 01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,080 Speaker 1: to the cops, Sean. Have you have you seen the 1339 01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:28,120 Speaker 1: print photograph of the uh that is a copy from 1340 01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:31,879 Speaker 1: the ISIS, the famous ISIS picture where the ISIS member 1341 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:35,160 Speaker 1: had the prisoner in kneeling position and slitting his throat. 1342 01:13:35,280 --> 01:13:38,919 Speaker 1: Have you seen the retouched photograph the house that shows 1343 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:42,680 Speaker 1: a man in total blackguards slitting the throat of a 1344 01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 1: police officer who is kneeling. Have you seen that? I 1345 01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:49,240 Speaker 1: have seen, and I have watched every single one of 1346 01:13:49,360 --> 01:13:53,320 Speaker 1: those horrific evil tapes, and nobody's ever asked the President 1347 01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:56,120 Speaker 1: or Hillary if they have you know, are you are 1348 01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:59,040 Speaker 1: you aware that the day of Rage, uh that is 1349 01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:02,519 Speaker 1: have been that being produced by Black Lives Matter nationally, 1350 01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 1: which is gonna be Friday, July fifth, team they're gonna 1351 01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:09,599 Speaker 1: have major protests in a number of large urban cities 1352 01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:12,040 Speaker 1: across the country. Yeah, they said they want to buy, 1353 01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:15,600 Speaker 1: they want to barcott businesses, and they're gonna start with 1354 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:18,760 Speaker 1: target first. And they didn't want this information to get 1355 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:21,120 Speaker 1: out in the media, so they have this email thing 1356 01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:23,600 Speaker 1: going around and someone sent me a copy of it 1357 01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:27,320 Speaker 1: where they're gonna have this great outbursts on this coming Friday. 1358 01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:32,200 Speaker 1: And yet the president sean, we are our police officers 1359 01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:36,280 Speaker 1: are under attack. They're deliberately being shot at, They're being 1360 01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 1: killed at our government of a police department. No one 1361 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:43,120 Speaker 1: is stopping it. I remember when the Tea Party movement started, 1362 01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:46,559 Speaker 1: and it was a good movement. They were not violent, 1363 01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:50,160 Speaker 1: but yet they were called terrorists. The Black congressman pretended 1364 01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:53,240 Speaker 1: that they had called him the inward it was all lies, 1365 01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:55,840 Speaker 1: and they went out of their way to stop the 1366 01:14:55,880 --> 01:15:00,120 Speaker 1: Tea Party movement. But We literally have police officers in 1367 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 1: gunn down and there's no system urgency about it at all. 1368 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:08,040 Speaker 1: And it's mind blowing, you know, Sean the problem on 1369 01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:10,400 Speaker 1: my end of it, and by the way, for full disclosures, 1370 01:15:10,439 --> 01:15:13,799 Speaker 1: I investigate all types of cases for all types of entities, 1371 01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:19,160 Speaker 1: Attorney general's offices, municipalities, civil rights firms. I do a 1372 01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 1: tremendous amount of civil rights work. And I will tell you, 1373 01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:25,720 Speaker 1: having investigated hundreds of these things, the people need to 1374 01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:29,920 Speaker 1: calm down. They need to again have a studied response. 1375 01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:32,760 Speaker 1: They let they need to let the justice system and 1376 01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:37,080 Speaker 1: the investigative bodies look at these cases and and they 1377 01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:41,120 Speaker 1: will find that the vast mass majority of these cassatta 1378 01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:43,640 Speaker 1: are justified. Thank you both for being one of us. 1379 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:45,839 Speaker 1: All Right, we have so much on our plate today. 1380 01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:50,599 Speaker 1: We're clearly on VP selection watch for Donald Trump. It's Wednesday. 1381 01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:52,639 Speaker 1: If I had to guests, we'll know within the next 1382 01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:56,640 Speaker 1: fifty sixty hours who his choice is going to be. 1383 01:15:57,520 --> 01:15:59,760 Speaker 1: When that had it seems like it's now come down 1384 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:04,479 Speaker 1: to Penn's versus Newt, with an outside shot for Christie. 1385 01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:06,920 Speaker 1: I think it's Penn's versus Newt. If you want to 1386 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:09,880 Speaker 1: go to our poll on Hannity dot com. You can 1387 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:12,960 Speaker 1: we got it up there, just the two of them. Anyway, 1388 01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:17,240 Speaker 1: Let's get to our busy telephones here. Daniel is in Modesto, California. 1389 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:20,240 Speaker 1: What's up, Daniel?

What can I do to help you? 1393 01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:32,640 Speaker 1: Why is it that Black Lives Matter is generalized with 1394 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:40,120 Speaker 1: the negative comments that some ignorant people say inside the organization? Well, 1395 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:42,599 Speaker 1: let me ask you a question. Is black is Well? 1396 01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:44,960 Speaker 1: I'm asking a question, does black lives matter? Or to 1397 01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:49,960 Speaker 1: all lives matter? All lives matter? Okay, thank you. I 1398 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:52,640 Speaker 1: agree with you. You're right about that. But do you 1399 01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:56,280 Speaker 1: say that at Cancer Rowley? Do you say that? Do 1400 01:16:56,360 --> 01:16:59,920 Speaker 1: you run in and say all diseases matter? Are we 1401 01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:03,439 Speaker 1: are we talking about cancer in that month because it 1402 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:07,559 Speaker 1: brings awareness? Can I ask you a question, seriously? Seriously? 1403 01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:09,920 Speaker 1: How many people? How many when you see groups of 1404 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:13,759 Speaker 1: people from an organization chanting what do we want dead cops? 1405 01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:16,560 Speaker 1: When do we want them now? And chanting what do 1406 01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:19,960 Speaker 1: we pigs in a blanket? Prime like Bacon, Um, do 1407 01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:22,800 Speaker 1: you want to be a part of that organization? The 1408 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:25,800 Speaker 1: same thing about Trump? I just asked you. No, I 1409 01:17:25,840 --> 01:17:28,559 Speaker 1: don't know any I don't know any Trump supporter. Well, 1410 01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:30,160 Speaker 1: if you have any evidence that there is a Trump 1411 01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:33,519 Speaker 1: supporter calling for dead cops, I would like to hear it. 1412 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:38,400 Speaker 1: But this is the organization. These are people within the organization. 1413 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:41,800 Speaker 1: There were a lot of people making those chants on 1414 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:48,599 Speaker 1: different occasions. That doesn't sound like one or two rogue 1415 01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,200 Speaker 1: people that support Black Lives Matter. That sounds like a 1416 01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 1: lot of people. So what about I don't know about 1417 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:58,640 Speaker 1: any KKK rally for Trump. And I know and I 1418 01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:01,280 Speaker 1: know that Donald Trump is not a member of the KKK. 1419 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 1: And I know that Donald Trump wouldn't invite the KKK 1420 01:18:04,479 --> 01:18:07,759 Speaker 1: to the White House. I know that Obama did invite 1421 01:18:07,760 --> 01:18:09,680 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter to the White House. And I know 1422 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:14,799 Speaker 1: that Hillary is seeking out their support donald Trump. Donald 1423 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:23,080 Speaker 1: Trump is condemned the KKK repeatedly. All right, you wasted 1424 01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:27,679 Speaker 1: my time? Goodbye? H is it? Letty Letty in Austin, Texas? 1425 01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 1: Did I say that? Right? You sure did? How are you? 1426 01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:33,360 Speaker 1: I'm great? How are you? I'm good? Glad you called? 1427 01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:36,120 Speaker 1: It's an interesting day. I just wanted to let you 1428 01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:38,840 Speaker 1: know that I'm a long time I'm listener. I'm glad 1429 01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:42,120 Speaker 1: to be on the on the program. I'm glad thanks. 1430 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:44,920 Speaker 1: I'm a Trump supporter. I have been since the very beginning. 1431 01:18:44,920 --> 01:18:46,280 Speaker 1: When I heard he was going to run, I was 1432 01:18:46,600 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 1: really excited. I'm anxious to see who he's going to 1433 01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:53,040 Speaker 1: pick for his vice president presidential candidate. I know you 1434 01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:55,080 Speaker 1: guys are all for news. I think new It's a 1435 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:57,519 Speaker 1: great person. I think he could do a lot for us. 1436 01:18:57,560 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 1: He's done a lot for our country. But I really 1437 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:03,160 Speaker 1: feel like we need a candidate they can neutralize Trump. 1438 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:05,320 Speaker 1: I think everybody's not everybody. There are a lot of 1439 01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:07,360 Speaker 1: people that are afraid of him because he is such 1440 01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:10,679 Speaker 1: a powerful person, and I think that he needs someone 1441 01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:14,320 Speaker 1: to kind of neutralize him, to kind of just tone 1442 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:16,880 Speaker 1: him down a little bit and and then go forward. 1443 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:18,880 Speaker 1: I think he's going to be a great president. I hope, 1444 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 1: you know, I hope that, um you know, I hope that. Well. 1445 01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 1: My hopes are he I would love to see Paul 1446 01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:27,600 Speaker 1: Ryan as a vice president of candidate. I don't know 1447 01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:30,800 Speaker 1: it's going to happen or not. I would rather well 1448 01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:33,200 Speaker 1: Paul Ryan is never gonna happen. Paul Ryan's having at 1449 01:19:33,200 --> 01:19:35,760 Speaker 1: a hard time. He's more critical of Donald Trump than 1450 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:38,360 Speaker 1: he is of Obama or Hillary, and I'm very disappointed 1451 01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:40,840 Speaker 1: in Paul Ryan. The other thing is Paul Ryan said 1452 01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:43,680 Speaker 1: he was going to outline a very bold agenda for 1453 01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:47,640 Speaker 1: the Republicans. I still haven't seen it. Paul Ryan unfortunately 1454 01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:51,080 Speaker 1: has not. He's been a part of now that he's 1455 01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:53,240 Speaker 1: pretty much become a part of the establishment. From what 1456 01:19:53,320 --> 01:19:57,080 Speaker 1: I can see, I don't see bold, dynamic change. I 1457 01:19:57,120 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 1: think he's gonna fight Trump on on the issue of 1458 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:05,360 Speaker 1: immigration from people for people from Sharia countries or countries 1459 01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:08,080 Speaker 1: that practice Sharia. I think that is a conflict with 1460 01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:12,040 Speaker 1: our own our own constitution. I think he's against Trump 1461 01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:14,840 Speaker 1: on the wall. I don't see that he's ever pushed 1462 01:20:14,840 --> 01:20:18,040 Speaker 1: for energy independence. Um, he might agree with him on 1463 01:20:18,360 --> 01:20:21,240 Speaker 1: health savings accounts. Maybe they'll agree on how to balance 1464 01:20:21,280 --> 01:20:23,320 Speaker 1: the budget, but I know Trump wants to do it 1465 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:26,280 Speaker 1: a lot faster than the way that Paul Ryan has proposed. 1466 01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:29,559 Speaker 1: And Paul Ryan wants to touch entitlements. Trump Trump doesn't 1467 01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:32,479 Speaker 1: want to touch entitlements. They disagree on trade. I think 1468 01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:35,360 Speaker 1: Trump is gonna face a very hostile Paul Ryan and 1469 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:38,640 Speaker 1: a very hostile Mitch McConnell unfortunately. And I think you're 1470 01:20:38,680 --> 01:20:41,040 Speaker 1: gonna need somebody very strong to be able to go 1471 01:20:41,160 --> 01:20:44,320 Speaker 1: in there and get Republicans to finally do some work 1472 01:20:44,680 --> 01:20:51,439 Speaker 1: instead of being spineless and visionless and feckless and frankly, uh, 1473 01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:55,440 Speaker 1: cowardly in terms of advancing an agenda. Yeah, And I think, 1474 01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:57,680 Speaker 1: I mean he's he's already proven that he's balanced the 1475 01:20:57,680 --> 01:20:59,519 Speaker 1: budget before, and I think that would be good when 1476 01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:01,840 Speaker 1: we need to. We need to, We need strength, we 1477 01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:04,800 Speaker 1: need strength. I agree, So I just hope that you 1478 01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:07,760 Speaker 1: know he's I'm I'm a Hispanic woman, I have a 1479 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:11,200 Speaker 1: small business owner, and and I'm a Trump supporter and 1480 01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:14,559 Speaker 1: I'm constantly talking to my friends about Trump and they're like, 1481 01:21:14,640 --> 01:21:16,719 Speaker 1: why would you vote for him? And I'm why would 1482 01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:21,519 Speaker 1: you not? I'm with you. I'm I want a bowld agenda. 1483 01:21:21,680 --> 01:21:24,919 Speaker 1: I want somebody that's gonna rock that that corrupt political 1484 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:27,800 Speaker 1: foundation in d C. Because it is so bad it 1485 01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:30,840 Speaker 1: stinks too high heaven. And that's Republicans and Democrats. I'm 1486 01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:33,400 Speaker 1: disgusted with all of them right now. Well, I agree, 1487 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:36,400 Speaker 1: And I watched Hillary today as she was addressing um 1488 01:21:36,439 --> 01:21:38,600 Speaker 1: I greup in Illinois, and I was just, uh, it 1489 01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:42,719 Speaker 1: was it Wasn't she becomes president, it's gonna be pretty depressing. 1490 01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:44,599 Speaker 1: You know. I'll tell you one other thing. I don't 1491 01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:48,519 Speaker 1: take this a step further. If Donald Trump loses this election, 1492 01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:54,160 Speaker 1: I'm blaming people like Paul Ryan. I'm blaming the quote 1493 01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:59,120 Speaker 1: anti Trump crowd, uh, the never Trump crowd, because you 1494 01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:02,080 Speaker 1: know what, they have been more hostile, they have been 1495 01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 1: more vicious, they have been you know, it's almost amazing 1496 01:22:06,160 --> 01:22:09,479 Speaker 1: to me. They're they're more vigorous in their attacks against 1497 01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:13,439 Speaker 1: Donald Trump than they've ever been against Hillary Clinton. Then 1498 01:22:13,479 --> 01:22:17,000 Speaker 1: they've ever been against Barack Obama's agenda. When it comes 1499 01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:20,360 Speaker 1: to Obama, they're weak, they're intimidated, the effectless, their visionless, 1500 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,599 Speaker 1: they're spineless. When it comes to Donald Trump, boy, oh boy, 1501 01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:26,080 Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna hit him, you know, with both 1502 01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:29,639 Speaker 1: barrels as hard as they can to prove that they're fair. Well, 1503 01:22:29,640 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 1: that's not how Democrats play the game. They're gonna rally 1504 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:34,680 Speaker 1: around Hillary and it doesn't matter if she's caught on 1505 01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:38,080 Speaker 1: tape shooting an innocent person walking down the street. They'll 1506 01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:42,200 Speaker 1: still defender it's aggravating. Uh, thank you.

Well, thank you very much. 1511 01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 1: What's on your mind today? Well, a couple of things. 1512 01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:01,720 Speaker 1: And the first one for me, a simple is a 1513 01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 1: new I definitely would love to see him run with 1514 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:07,400 Speaker 1: Donald And I'll be honest with you. I used to 1515 01:23:07,439 --> 01:23:10,759 Speaker 1: be when Obama for it was first running, I voted. 1516 01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:13,320 Speaker 1: I was one of those I voted for him because 1517 01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:17,400 Speaker 1: I just had I was tired of the robot and 1518 01:23:17,439 --> 01:23:19,679 Speaker 1: I felt like I could relate to him at the time. 1519 01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:22,559 Speaker 1: But after that four year term, I was done. Like 1520 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:24,720 Speaker 1: my daughter and my husband were so upset with me. 1521 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:28,519 Speaker 1: So I know, I I totally changed over. I changed 1522 01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:33,240 Speaker 1: my change to the Republican Party and I'm a Republican. 1523 01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:37,840 Speaker 1: So yeah. Um. Second point was from yesterday. Actually during 1524 01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:41,439 Speaker 1: the services, I was had them on MIAM radio and 1525 01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:43,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you know, going through the chief 1526 01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:46,840 Speaker 1: of Police loved his speech. And then when it came 1527 01:23:46,840 --> 01:23:50,479 Speaker 1: to Obama and he started changing the agenda. I just 1528 01:23:50,600 --> 01:23:52,720 Speaker 1: I couldn't listen to him anymore. I was ready to 1529 01:23:52,760 --> 01:23:55,280 Speaker 1: turn off my radio, and guess what, your show came on. 1530 01:23:56,560 --> 01:23:58,640 Speaker 1: So I was really thankful your show came on. I 1531 01:23:58,840 --> 01:24:03,120 Speaker 1: I just couldn't you have this. This McKesson guy, whatever 1532 01:24:03,160 --> 01:24:06,400 Speaker 1: his name, de Ray McKesson from Black Lives Matter. He's 1533 01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:09,280 Speaker 1: at the White House today as cops are being buried 1534 01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:13,439 Speaker 1: to discuss the Black Lives Matter movement. Pigs in a blanket, 1535 01:24:13,479 --> 01:24:16,120 Speaker 1: priam like bacon, What do we want dead cops? What 1536 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:20,519 Speaker 1: do we want him? Now? It's terrible, so bad. But 1537 01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:24,160 Speaker 1: then again, radical Islam doesn't exist, and isis is the 1538 01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:26,720 Speaker 1: JV team. And by the way, the Islamic state is 1539 01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:31,240 Speaker 1: not Islamic. Thank you, Michelle Brian in Houston, Texas ktr H. Brian, 1540 01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:33,800 Speaker 1: how are you, hey, Sean? Thanks for having me on 1541 01:24:34,040 --> 01:24:36,320 Speaker 1: What's going on? Oh? Is that a nice one to 1542 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:39,160 Speaker 1: wag in on the What I think is the the 1543 01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:41,160 Speaker 1: one soft spot and want to double down on a 1544 01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:42,760 Speaker 1: point you mean, I think the soft spot in the 1545 01:24:42,760 --> 01:24:45,360 Speaker 1: Trump campaign and the biggest risk to the Trump campaign 1546 01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:49,040 Speaker 1: is the conservatives on the never Trump train. And I 1547 01:24:49,080 --> 01:24:52,519 Speaker 1: think the one person that really um gives him and 1548 01:24:52,560 --> 01:24:55,360 Speaker 1: helps him shore at the conservative base is new Gingrich. 1549 01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:58,040 Speaker 1: And I don't mean just from an optics perspective. I 1550 01:24:58,040 --> 01:25:01,800 Speaker 1: think if you know, a unified Republican Party and you know, 1551 01:25:01,840 --> 01:25:04,360 Speaker 1: we all know, you know Hillary Clinton is self destructing 1552 01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:06,120 Speaker 1: before our eyes. You have a whole bunch of Bernie 1553 01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:08,479 Speaker 1: Sanders supporters out there that if you left at mccold 1554 01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:12,000 Speaker 1: now that he sold out. I think a unified Republican 1555 01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:14,559 Speaker 1: Party is really going to help Donald Trump. And I 1556 01:25:14,600 --> 01:25:18,719 Speaker 1: think new Ingrid's just from you know, from a confident standpoint, 1557 01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:22,160 Speaker 1: is going to help the campaign and from an execution standpoint, 1558 01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:25,080 Speaker 1: I think if you couple Donald Trump's platform and agenda 1559 01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:29,560 Speaker 1: with new Gingrich's experience and knowledge of you know, Washington 1560 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:31,360 Speaker 1: and how to get things done, do you really have 1561 01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:35,120 Speaker 1: a potent ticket. I can't disagree with the words you said. 1562 01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:37,519 Speaker 1: I've been very outspoken and I think it should be Newt. 1563 01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:41,400 Speaker 1: I've known new Ingrid since first interviewed him in Decatur, 1564 01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:44,880 Speaker 1: Alabama when I was on w v n N and Huntsville, 1565 01:25:45,520 --> 01:25:48,439 Speaker 1: and I got to know him. I am c the event, 1566 01:25:48,560 --> 01:25:52,040 Speaker 1: the election night event when he became Speaker of the 1567 01:25:52,040 --> 01:25:55,240 Speaker 1: house in and we've been friends ever since. And he's 1568 01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:57,479 Speaker 1: all while he was a colleague up until this week. 1569 01:25:57,479 --> 01:26:00,320 Speaker 1: He's got suspended because of this vice presidential of stuff. 1570 01:26:00,320 --> 01:26:02,280 Speaker 1: It's only temporary. If he doesn't get it, he'll be 1571 01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:06,000 Speaker 1: back at Fox and So it's a pretty interesting, exciting time. 1572 01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 1: Thank you. I don't think the campaign needs a new face. 1573 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:13,519 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is a new face. I think Nell, you know, 1574 01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:15,000 Speaker 1: that's a great way to put it. I haven't thought 1575 01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:16,600 Speaker 1: about that. That's a great way to put it. And 1576 01:26:16,640 --> 01:26:20,400 Speaker 1: he's also somebody who has a track record of dynamic, 1577 01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:26,720 Speaker 1: transformative success. That's a great point, really good point. Let's 1578 01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:29,759 Speaker 1: go to Mary is in Cleveland, Ohio, and we're gonna 1579 01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:31,840 Speaker 1: be there tomorrow during this program and then we'll be 1580 01:26:31,880 --> 01:26:33,639 Speaker 1: there for a whole week.
