Common Sense, To Me, Is Simple. And I've Never Understood Why There Aren't A Lot Of People Trying To Figure Out How The United States Became This Special Place And Then Try To Replicate It Around The World, Because That's The Solution To The Human Condition. The Solution To Poverty, The Solution To Misery, The Solution To Backwards Living Is The United States Of America. Why Not Learn How That Happened, Learn Why And How We Happened. What Is It That Made It Special?

We Can't Predict The Future.

I Don't Think There's Any Difference In The Two Donald Trumps. Maybe I Didn't Make This Clear. I Don't Think Trump's Different In Washington Than He Is There. The Difference Is You Don't Have Anybody Tweeting. The Trump In Washington Compared To The Trump In Middle East Trip, What's The Difference? The Trump In Washington Is Filtered By The Media.

Barack Obama Thinks This Country Is A Crime. Obama Thinks This Country Is A Walking, Living Crime, The Way It's Treated Poor People, Minorities And So Forth, And He Wants To Get Even, He Wants To Get Even With All Those People That Have Engaged In This Theft, Discrimination, Racism And Be And So Forth, He Also Wants To Create A Permanent Underclass For The Express Purpose Of Making Sure He's Never Out Of Office Or The Regime's Party Is Never Out Of Office.

Unlike Marxists, Conservatives They Don't Want To Control Anything. We Believe In Individualism, Self-reliance, Rugged Individualism, And We Trust People That In Free Markets And Free Circumstances They Will Do The Best To Improve Themselves And Their Families. We Want As Few Controls On Them As Possible. We Love Everybody, And We Want The Best For Everybody, And We Believe People Should Be Free To Use Whatever Talent And Ambition And Desire They Have To Achieve Whatever They Want.

Do You Know The Democrats Can't Raise A Dime? The Democrats' Fundraising Is Practically Nonexistent. And On The Other Side Of That, Republican Fundraising Is Through The Roof! It's Through The Roof To The Point That People Can't Believe It, Even On The Republican Side. Now, They're Not Gonna Give Trump Credit For It. I Don't Know Who Else Is Getting Credit, But It Should Be Trump. But Republican Fundraising Is Going Through The Roof. And I Guarantee You The People Giving The Republicans Money Are Doing It Because Of Trump.

One Thing Donald Trump Does, The Minute Something's Out There About Him That's Not True, He Blows It Up. He Reacts To It.

Do You Know What The Primary Infrastructure Of The United States Actually Is, Ladies And Gentlemen? It's Freedom - Freedom And Liberty - And That Infrastructure Certainly Does Need Some Rebuilding.

Everything Changes When You Become President. Everything. The Things That You've Said During The Campaign On Military Strategy And Policy, It Automatically Changes When You Become A Commander-in-chief.

The Democrats' Version Of Immigration Is All About Securing Additional Votes.

The Democrats Have Made The Low-information Voters Think They Care About 'em. And The Worst Thing You Can Do Is Invest In The Democrat Party, The Worst Thing, In Terms Of Life Potential.

Socialism, Leftism, Liberalism Not Only Doesn't Respect The Unique Abilities Of Free People; It Attempts To Quash Them And To Eliminate Them. Because It's Unfair Not Only To Have More Than Somebody Else, It's Unfair To Be Better Than Anybody Else At Whatever You Do. That's Not Fair. So We Define Everything Down To The Lowest Common Denominator. We Take The People At The Top, Bring 'em Down To People At The Bottom And Say That's Equality. We Punish Achievement If Liberalism And Leftism Rules The Day. But Capitalism Is Where The Respect For Unique Abilities And Freedom Resides.

Obama's Health Care Plan Will Be Written By A Committee Whose Head, John Conyers, Says He Doesn't Understand It. It'll Be Passed By Congress That Has Not Read It, Signed By A President Who Smokes, Funded By A Treasury Chief Who Didn't Pay His Taxes, Overseen By A Surgeon General Who Is Obese, And Financed By A Country That's Nearly Broke. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Gun Control And The Specifics Of It, Like Immigration, It's Not Really About The Substance When It Comes To Rino Republicans Supporting It. It Is About Appearing Sophisticated. It's About Appearing Superiorly Educated, And It's About Qualifying For Admittance In The Club Of Elites. And You'll Never Be Invited To The Right Parties, Cocktail Or Otherwise, In Manhattan Or Washington Or La Or San Francisco Or What Have You.

[john] Mccain Has Never Ripped Into [barack] Obama The Way He Rips Into [donald] Trump Or Other Republicans.

In A Country Of Children Where The Option Is Santa Claus Or Work, What Wins?

When You Buy A Meal And You Pay A Fair Price For It, Are You Doing This To Ensure That The Employees Get Health Care? When You Walk Into Mickey D's And You Buy A Big Mac, Do You Ask Them, "by The Way, Is This Thing Costing Enough So That You Get Health Care Here? By The Way, Is This Big Mac Costing Enough So That You Get A Pension Here?" Do You Think Any Of That When You Go Buy A Big Mac? No. You Want It To Be As Cheap As It Can Be. That's Why You're There.

California Is Many Things, And It Is A Harbinger Of What This Country Will Become If Illegal Immigration Isn't Stopped. You're Gonna Have A Very Rich, Very Powerful Minority Of Elites - Very, Very Tiny - And They're Gonna Live In A Very Few, Small, Gated Enclaves.

[bill] Clinton's Voice, His Manner Of Speaking And His Terminology, "back In Those Days... Yeah, Back Those Days... You Know, We Didn't Have The Internet Back Then." My Grandfather Said, "back In Those Days, We Didn't Have Automobiles".

If You Accept That Conservatism Equals Constitutionalism - And I Do - Well, Then, Where Do We Start? We Do We Start Reinstituting All Of These Values, The Morality In The Culture, In Our Society; The Respect For Rule Of Law. And Then You Look At What We're Up Against, An Entire Democrat Party.

I'll Say Something Else About Christine O'donnell. You Ready? I'd Rather Look At Her Than Mike Castle. I Think She's Kind Of Cute. I Think She's Kind Of Refreshing. She's A Conservative. What's The Problem?

I Cringe Every Time Republican Senators Say, "our Democratic Friends." Chuck Schumer, If He Is Your Friend, It's A Problem. I Mean, It Shouldn't Be, But We Know It Is.

Both Parties Want It Now. They Want Comprehensive Immigration Reform, And They Want Open Borders.

Life Is Busy. There Are Daily Concerns And Obligations That Have To Be Met, And To Take Time To Think About How Precious And Special A Human Life Is That You Only Get One, And That Every Wasted Minute Is Lost. You Can't Get It Back.

After So Many Years Now, It's Just Suspected By Most People That There Simply Is No Way To Change The Direction Washington's Going Or The Country's Going Or To Do Anything About That Small Group Of Establishment Elitists In Both Parties That End Up Running Things For Themselves.

Donald Trump Doesn't Pose A Single Threat To The Greatness Of America.

I Don't Care What You Want To Call It. You Can Call It The Deep State. You Can Get Specific And You Can Say That It's Members Of The Permanent Government And There Are Plenty Of Those, That Are In The Intelligence Community That Simply Will Not Accept The Results Of The Donald Trump Election.

You Can't Sue A President, A Former President. They're Indemnified.

The Law Exists For Lots Of Reasons. In The Case Of Migration, The Law Exists To Maintain The Integrity Of America. We Allow Immigrants Here, Happily So. We Don't Deny Legal Immigrants A Path To Citizenship In This Country. But Beyond That, Since We Can't Take In Everybody, Since Everybody Can't Come Here, It's Physically Not Possible - Well, It Is. You Know You Could Put The Population Of The World Inside The State Of Texas In 1,500-square-feet Homes. I Mean, You Wouldn't Want To, But You Could Do It.

Hillary Clinton Is Actually Telling Her Donors That Vladimir Putin Targeted Her Personally Because He's So Afraid Of Her. We're Dealing With Some Genuinely Sick People Here, Folks, Truly, I'm Talking Mentally Ill. They're Not All There. They Pose A Great Danger.

Why Is The Media Doing What They're Doing? Well, There Are Many Answers For It. I Don't Mean To Be Insulting Anybody Here. Clearly, The Media Hates Trump, Yeah, And Clearly The Media's A Bunch Of Leftists And They Don't Like Trump's Policies, And Clearly This And Clearly That. But There's Another Factor To This, Too, That I Don't Think Can Be Denied - And I Think They're Scared To Death. Donald Trump Is Unraveling, Bit By Bit, Major Elements Of The Barack Obama Agenda.

The Republicans Know Very Well How To Lose, And They Know How To Be Very Civil In Defeat.

People Always Break The Law, But For The Most Part The Rule Of Law Triumphed And Illegal Immigrants Were Found And Deported. The Case Was Not Made For Them To Stay.

All The Eight Years Of [barack] Obama When [george W.] Bush Was Asked Repeatedly, "i Don't Do That. I Had My Time. It's His Time Now." The Protocols And The History, The Traditions Say That Past Presidents Don't Comment. That Didn't Work For Bill Clinton. He Couldn't Help Himself. Obama Is Not Commenting, But Obama Is Actively Engaged In The Sabotage Of The [donald] Trump Administration, With All Of These Community Organizing Uprisings.

[gerald Rudolph ] Ford Pardoned Richard Nixon To Save Everybody That, And The Democrats Were Ticked About It.

Susan Rice Has Withdrawn Her Name From The Running To Be The Next Secretary Of State. The Thing Is, She Was Never Nominated. I Think This Whole Thing Has Been A Giant Distraction. I Think [barack] Obama Wanted Somebody Else In There All Along.

The Obama Administration Was Filled With People That Had Deep Resentment For People Successful In The Private Sector, In Business Or What Have You, With No Way Of Understanding Them Or Relating To Them At All, And No Desire To. Much Of The Washington Establishment, Particularly The Democrat Side Of It, Has The Same View Of American Business And The Private Sector. And Here Comes Donald Trump Entering Their World, And They Are Not Equipped To Understand How He Operates Or What He's Doing. They're Plugging Him And His Business Techniques Into Their Political Models, And It Doesn't Work.

When They Got Here, When They Successfully Emigrated - And Not Everybody That Came Through Ellis Island Was Accepted. If You Were Sick You Were Not Allowed In. If You Had Any Kind Of A Disease, We Were In The Process Of Trying To Wipe Out All These Diseases. We Did That By Keeping People Who Had Them Out Of The Country. You Might Look At It Today As, "wow, That Was Really Mean." No. It Was Putting America First. It Was Putting The American People First, And It Was A Realization That We Can't Take Everybody.

Our Political Correct Society Is Acting Like Some Giant Insult's Taken Place By Calling A Bunch Of People Who Are Retards, Retards...there's Going To Be A Retard Summit At The White House.

Congressman Steve King Believed What Chuck Schumer And Nancy Pelosi Were Saying, That Donald Trump Had A Agreed To A Deal On The Dreamers And Had Gotten Nothing On Getting Rid Of The Wall For It, And The Wall Was Not Part Of The Deal. He Wasn't The Only One. David "rodham" Gergen, Who Is The Definition Of Washington Conventional Wisdom.

Liberals Measure Compassion By How Many People Are Given Welfare. Conservatives Measure Compassion By How Many People No Longer Need It.

If You Get Rich In The Name Of The Poor, Fine And Dandy. The Problem Is When You Earn It. If You Earn The Money In The Private Sector By Starting A Business And Hiring A Lot Of People, That's When You Become The Enemy.

If Hillary Clinton Wins, She Becomes The Face Of The Democrat Party. She Becomes The Face Of The Power. She Becomes The Focus Of Attention For The Media And Everybody Else - Rendering Barack Obama Not Invisible, But Certainly Secondary Status. I Have My Doubts About That. I Think There Is Such Devotion - Media - For And To Obama That I Think He's Gonna Remain Prominent No Matter Who Is Elected President, And I Think That He Is Going To Seek To Undermine Anyone, Whoever They Are, If They Try To Undermine Or Unravel Any Of His So-called Achievements.

Emotional Roller Coasters Tend To Emphasize The Lows, Tend To Be More Affected By The Low, By The Dip In An Emotional Roller Coaster Than When You Are At The Peak.

Being A Sanctuary City, For The People Of Organize And Run It, Is A Great Source Of Pride. 'social Justice! Fairness, Equality, Diversity!" All The Things That Make Liberals Great People And Make You A Schlub. The More Pressures And Demands On Their Social Services, The Better People They Are.

The Left Believes That We're An Unwarranted, Undeserving Superpower Because We're A Racist, Bigoted Nation From Our Founding. So Obama Presides Over America's Decline And Tells Everybody "get Used To It. This Is The New Norm." The New Norm Is No Full-time Jobs. The New Norm Is Government Getting Bigger. The New Norm Is You Having No Wage Increases For 15 Years. This Is What The New Norm Is, As We Entered The Global Marketplace. And The American People Don't Want Any Part Of That. That's Not America.

The [media] Coverage Is Always, "will [democrats] Get It? Will They Get What They Want?" And, Really, It's Even Worse Than That. It's Not, "will They Get It?" It's "how Soon Will They Get It, And What Are The Villains Gonna Do To Try To Stop Them From Getting It?"

The Pope Is Encouraging Immigrants To Come Here. He's Encouraging Us To Let Them Come Here. He's Encouraging Us To Stop Any Efforts Whatsoever To Prevent Them From Coming Here. Why, If Capitalism's So Bad? 'cause If He Gets What He Wants And Everybody Else Along With Him, We're Not Gonna Be Capitalists Very Much Long. Here's What The Pope Said About Trump.

Donald Trump Is A Different Ball Of Wax. I've Been Trying To Say For I Don't Know How Many Months Now That The Traditional Political Playbook In Destroying And Attacking A Political Opponent Is Not Gonna Work On Trump, Because Trump's Connection With His Supporters Or His Audience Is Far Deeper And Far Greater Than Most Voters' Connection With A Candidate That's Very Popular. Reagan Had The Connection.

What They Want Can Never Work. Their Dreams Can Never Even Get Close To Reality. Their Hopes Can Never, Ever Be Realized. It Isn't Humanly Possible For Liberalism To Succeed.

With The Camera You Might Even Not Need The Reporters. But, You See, Media Can't Trust You To Watch [barack] Obama Without Them Telling You What You Just Saw And Analyzing It.

I Wanted To Be On My Own. I Couldn't Wait To Be On My Own. It Did Not Scare Me. I Was Dependent My Parents. I Wasn't Dependent Government, But I Was Dependent On My Parents. I Started Working Essentially When I Was 16, But I Was Still Dependent On My Parents. I Couldn't Wait To Be On My Own.

Open Borders And The Never-ending Parade Of Illegal Immigrants Does Nothing To Build The National Economy Or The American Culture.

Do People On Food Stamps Actually Need More Movies To Watch? Well, I'm Probably Treading Dangerously Close To The Line Of Insensitivity, Right?

If Thomas Jefferson Thought Taxation Without Representation Was Bad, He Should See How It Is With Representation.

I've Been Around So Long, I Can Remember When It Was A Rhetorical Question To Ask, "is The Pope Catholic?" Now It's A Legit Question.

The Democrat Party Have No Education In Critical Thinking Or Common Sense Or Common Sense Perception. None Of It. They Just Seethe When They Hear This Stuff Because It's All Creating Knee-jerk Reactions: "racist, Sexist, Bigot, Homophobe! Racist, Sexist, Bigot! Racist!" It's Paralyzing Us, Folks, As A Country. We Are In A State Of Paralyses. These People Are Retarding Our Progress.

He May Be A Lot Of Things, But Donald Trump Has Not Done One Thing That Detracts From The Character Or The Reputation Of The Usa, For Crying Out Loud. I Can Give You A List Of Democrats Who You Seem To Want To Sidle Up To Who Are Doing Their Level Best To Destroy This Country As It Was Founded, Who Are Doing Their Level Best To Transform This Country Away From Its Intentions As Founded. For Crying Out Loud.

There Is An All-out Assault Now On The Christian Community In This Country.

State-controlled Associated Press: 'the Gross Domestic Product Declines 1% In The Second Quarter, Better Than Expected.' The Bottom Line Is The Economy Is Still Shrinking! It's Contracting. There's Negative Growth. One Percent, Big Whoop, We're Supposed To Feel Happy About This? The Only Thing That Would Make Me Happy About This Is If I Saw A Story That Said The Government Shrunk By 1%. Then We'd Be Making Progress.

What We Need To Do Is Stop Global Warming; That's The Only Way To Stop Your Peanut Butter Cups From Melting... And If That Doesn't Do The Trick, Then Put Them In The Fridge... Or Better Yet, Eat Them.

If I Had The Good Fortune Of Having The Ability To Influence People All Over The World Every Time I Spoke, I Would Do My Best To Make Sure People Understood Why The United States Of America Is Special, And Then I Would Suggest That Everybody Who Wants To Come Here, "i Don't Blame You, Fine And Dandy, There's A Legal Mechanism For This. We're Not Denying People The Right To Come To Our Country. There's A Legal Way To Do It." That's Another Thing People Forget.

[donald] Trump Is Winning Because People That Vote Republican Have Been Let Down And Disappointed One Too Many Times, And Their Instinct Is Being Borne Out Here. The Republican Party Is Not Interested In Winning.

We Are Not Obligated To Share.

If On Social Media There Is Rampant Offense Over Donald Trump Saying "we Got Some Bad Hombres Out There," Then Trump Becomes A Reprobate Again, A Sexist, A Bigot, A Misogynist, All Of These Things, 'cause We Got Some Bad Hombres Out There.

The Government's The One Thing That's Not Supposed To Grow. The U.s. Economy Is Supposed To Grow. The Two Things Can't Really Happen Together.

In Addition To Trying To Do The Right Thing And Obey The Law And Follow Principle, There's A Part Of The Conservative, Slash, Republican Movement That Believes If We Just Show That We're Fair And Impeccable, Then We Will Get Credit From Those Who Think We're All These Horrible Things, And Maybe They Won't Hate Us As Much.

If The Republican Party Continues To Have A Different Message For Every Different Group, They're Gonna Die. We Already Have A Party That Does That, And They Own It. It's Called The Democrat Party.

If You Want What Happens In The Us, It Can Happen Where You Are, Too.

I've Got Confidence That Most People In America Still Have A Decent Sense Of Manners, Propriety, Morality.

United States Foreign Policy, Which Includes National Security, Is Literally Disintegrating Before Our Eyes.

National Security

I Never, Ever Have Seen Media This Way. It's Almost Indescribable. Making Up Stories, Refusing To Run Real Stories. It's Making Themselves Look Like Utter Fools. There's No Journalism, There Is No Media. There's Pure, Full-fledged Advocacy Here.

I Haven't Talked To [donald] Trump Since He Made His Comments About [john] Mccain Being Captured; Now He Doesn't Respect Military Guys That Get Captured.

Folks, Let Me Ask You A Question About That. You Voted In 2010, 2014. You're Part Of The Tea Party And You Show Up And You Just Vote. Republicans Said They Needed The House, And You Gave It To 'em; Then They Said They Needed The Senate, And You Gave It To 'em. Do You Feel Like Winners Even After Those Two Elections? Probably Not, Because You Really Didn't Think The Republican Party Was Going To Change Their Stripes And Start Acting On All This.

Hillary [clinton] Doesn't Have A Fascinating Story To Get Behind. She Doesn't Fascinating Story To Tell. The Only Thing About Hillary Is, You Know, "first Female President."

This Is The Burgeoning Days Of Feminism. This Is When The Militant Feminists Are The Feminism Hormones Are Raging. They Are Excited. They Are Happy. This Is A New Day! They Are Through Being Plugged Into These Formulas Where Men Run Everything And You're In Servitude To Them.

There's Nothing In The 14th Amendment About Anchor Babies.

Hillary Clinton Cannot Be Honest, In A Nationwide Campaign, About What She's Gonna Do. She Wouldn't Get 30% Of The Vote, Maybe 40, If She Did. Just Like Obama Didn't. Obama Didn't Campaign On 90% Of The Stuff That He Ended Up Doing. Quite The Opposite, In Fact.

[a-listers] Ended Up Abandoning Hillary [clinton] More Than They Abandoned [donald] Trump.

There Are People Who Think That Trump's Base Was Created By Steve Bannon - They Are Alt-right White Nationalists And So Forth - And That If Bannon Ever Turned On Trump, That Everybody That Voted For Trump Would Abandon Trump If Bannon Leaves. I Think That's Just So Much Bs, I Can't Tell You, And So Does People Who Voted For Trump.

Even If Leftists Were Able To Get Control Of Every Institution They Want To Destroy, What They Want Is Not Possible. The Circumstances For Life On This Planet That They Want Are Not Possible To Achieve. The Closest They Can Get To It Is Communism And Tyranny Where They Have To Force Everybody To Live The Way They Want.

It Is Preposterous To Believe That The Russians Had Any Effect On The Outcome Of Voting In America. It's Absurd. There Is No Evidence.

When I Lived In California, 1984 To '87, It Was A Republican State. Sacramento Where I Lived Was 73% Democrat Voter Registration, When I Got There. It Was In The Sixties When I Left. We Had Amazing Success In Converting Democrats In Sacramento. But Pete Wilson, Ronald Reagan, All People Elected Governors And So Forth, It's Only Been With The Advent Of The 1986 Immigration Bill That We Lost California, If I Might Say, And Now It's Just Gone So Far Left They're Seriously Talking About Seceding.

[the Democrats] Can't Stop Anything. It's Why Everybody's So Confused Why They Reelected [nancy] Pelosi.

The Constitution Says Nothing About Anchor Babies. The 14th Amendment Says Nothing About Birthright Citizenship.

Not Everybody Here Is Rich. Not Everybody Here Is Independently Wealthy. Not Everybody Here Is Free From Any Kind Of Economic Concern. We Run The Gamut Here, Too. It's The Opportunity To Escape That That Exists Here, For Very Specific Reasons. But It's Not Because The Us Is Where It Is. It's Not Because Our Dna Is Different Than Anybody Else's. It's Because Of The Way We Have Structured Our Affairs, Our Government.

There Is No Country On Earth That Can Touch Us In Charitable Efforts, In Disaster Relief Efforts, In Doing Everything To Help. We Do Not Live Under A Suicide Pact In The Name Of Compassion, Because You See What's Incorporated In All This Is That We're Guilty Of Something. And We're Not. We Lead The World In Goodness.

The Republicans Don't Want Donald Trump To Define The Republican Party Agenda. They Are Very Loyal. They Owe A Lot To Their Donors. The Donors Hate Trump. The Chamber Of Commerce Hates Trump. All Of These People That The Republicans Think They Can't Get Elected Without Don't Like Trump. So It Has Been A Stonewall. This Behavior By The House And Senate Republican Leadership Isn't Anything New. All You Had To Do Was To Listen What They Were Saying During The Campaign.

I've Been Racking My Brain. I've Been Trying To Figure Out How Bob Dole's Luggage Got On My Airplane...i Told The Doctor, I Said, 'look, I'm Worried About The Next Election.' ... A Misunderstanding.

The Pope Once Again Ripped - I Mean, Really Ripped - Capitalism And Americans' Immigration Policy At The Mexican Border, Before He Boarded The Plane And Returned To Italy.

It's An Expansion. And It's A Stealth Mechanism To Put The Tentacles Of Socialized Medicine Even Deeper Into Society.

I Was Doing What I Thought I Had To Do. There Was Romance In The Idea Of Being Married. It Was Just The Wrong Reasons.

Once You Convince People That They're Victims, You Really Own Them Because You've Just Told Them That Whatever Problems They Have In Life, It's Not Their Fault. And Then You're Telling Them They Can't Fix Them By Themselves. Look At Your Life. Your Life Sucks. You're A Victim Of These People Here, You Can't Fix It. You Need Us Looking Out For You. "us" Being The Democrat Party In This Case, The People That Go Out And Get Votes.

It's Just The Banks Who Are The Latest Target Of The American Socialist Left. There Is A War On The Entirety Of The Private Sector. It Is The Private Sector That Employs Most Of You, That Services Most Of You, That Creates The Economic Prosperity That Our Nation Has Enjoyed - And There Is A War On That Private Sector, And It's Being Waged From The Oval Office, And Its Foot Soldiers Are On Wall Street And In Other Cities Around The Country.

The Left Wants You To Believe That True Morality Is Defined By How Much Money You Give The Government, How Much Money You Pay The Government, How Much Money The Government Gets From You, Because Only The Government Does Good Stuff, Only The Government Does Good Works, Only The Government Cares About People. It's Bogus.

Donald Trump's Connection Is Personal. It's Rooted In Personal Desire, Personal Loyalty For Him To Succeed. Barack Obama Doesn't Have That. Never Did. But Don't Try To Tell Obama That. Obama Believes That He Has The Exact Kind Of Connection With Voters That Trump Has.

Isn't Protecting Our Legal Citizens From An Invading Army Of Illegal Aliens Who Are Using Our Services And Taking Our Jobs, Isn't That A Basic Notion Of Fairness? Isn't That In The Constitution? Where Is The Fairness To American Citizens Here?

The First Mistake In The New York Times Is Worrying About Granting Trump Access. They're Not "granting" Trump Access. Trump Is Commanding Access. Trump Is Taking Access. Trump Is Dictating The Daily Narrative.

I Know It's Absurd, But They're Out Saying So, And Hillary [clinton] Makes A Big, Big Deal About Climate Change.

Henry Blodget Says, "it Is Not Clear What, If Any, Power And Influence [steven Lerner] Currently Wields. His Main Message - That Wall Street Won The Financial Crisis, That Inequality In This Country Is Hitting Record Levels, And That There Appears To Be No Other Way To Stop The Trend - Will Almost Certainly Resonate."

Obama's Entire Economic Program Is Reparations.

The People That Choose To Face Life, The People That Choose To Embrace It, The People That Choose To Just Soak It Up, The People That Choose To Dive Right In And Test Their Limits And Find Out What They're Capable Of And How Good They Can Be And If That's Really What They Want To Do, Victims Are Gonna Hate Them Because They Are Showing What Anybody Could Do If They Just Had An Attitude Adjustment.

If You Want To Make A Conservative Angry, Tell Him A Lie. If You Want To Make A Liberal Angry, Tell Him The Truth.

She [hillary Clinton] Knew That's Who He[bill Clinton] Was Before They Got Married. It Would Have Been Hypocritical For Her To Insist On Monogamy.

Putin Did Not Head The Kgb, Never Has. Putin Was A Mid-level Nobody There. Putin Was One Of Those Guys In The Kgb Who Was A Climber. He Was Forever Hoping, Climbing That Ladder, Trying To Get To The Head Spot.

Dr. Benjamin Carson Is One Of The Finest, Most Accomplished Human Beings On This Planet Who Has Done More For People Than Most People In Politics Will Ever Do. And He's Done It Personally, Not With Other People's Money.

Hillary Clinton Was Personally Presiding Over The Dissolution Of Moral Authority - Particularly Applied To Presidents - Because She Looked The Other Way, Because She Tolerated It.

The Word "federalism" You Might Think That Means Federalism Trumps Everything; Federalism Means Federal Domination. It Does Not Mean That. It Means The Exact Opposite, In Fact. It Means The States Are Sovereign And The Federal Government Cannot Tell 'em What To Do In So Many Different Ways.

Conservatism In General Is Bad, And It's Racist And Sexist.

Trump's The Only Person That Can Possibly Beat Hillary Clinton, And If You Don't Support That, Then You Own It. You're Gonna Be A Partial Owner Of The Clinton Administration.

It Doesn't Matter Who The Candidates Are. It Doesn't Matter The Campaign. You Know That's Gonna Happen. The Washington Post Is Gonna Do It, The New York Times Is Gonna Do It, The Three Networks Gonna Do It, Cnn's Gonna Do It, Msnbc Gonna Do It, All The Newspapers Are Gonna Do It. For The Vast Majority Of Them. There Are Some Exceptions. That Sameness Ends Up Being Its Own Authority. If Everywhere You Look In The Media Tells You The Same Thing, You Don't Have To Research.

By The Way, I Don't Mean To Pick Nits Here, But Obama Has Just Ordered The Flag At Half-mast For 10 Days For Mandela. He Did Not Order The Flag At Half-mast At All For Lady Thatcher.

Even Though All That Co2 Has Been Spewed And Belched Into The Atmosphere, There Isn't Any Warming. Therefore, The Person, People, Whatever, Predicting Global Warming For Any Reason Have Been Wrong For 20 Consecutive Years. Every Year For 20 Years The Supporters Of This Theory Have Been Wrong, As Wrong As It's Possible To Be. That Means That The Person Predicting Global Warming Is Not Credible And Does Not Deserve To Be Listened To.

We're Talking Tens Of Thousands, Millions, Nobody Gives You That Kind Of Money Without An Expectation For It. It Has To Be Paid Back Somehow. You Pay It Back With Policy.

When The Democrats Start Targeting The Rich, They Are Also Targeting The People That Hire You, And If They Take Enough Money Away From Them, You Might Lose Your Job - And You're Supposed To Be Happy About That, Too, Because The Rich Guy Just Had His Taken From Him. This Is Not Arguable. This Is How The Democrats Go About It.

You Don't Win Everything. And You Ultimately Have To Take What You Get. I Think On The Case Of [donald] Trump, There's A Much Bigger Upside Than Down Side.

War Is Worthless Except For Ending Slavery, Nazism, Fascism, And Communism. Other Than That, War Is Pointless.

I, Of Course, Predicted Attempt Of Donald Trump Impeachment Back On November 22nd Of 2016 Year.

Love Is The Only Human Emotion That Cannot Be Controlled.

I Have A Political Aversion To Blue Jeans. I'm Biased Against Them. I Really Am. I've Been Forced Over The Course Of My Life, I Have Been Forced By Certain People To Try A Pair Of Jeans. So I've Gone And I've Tried 'em On, And I Hate 'em. They're Not Comfortable. They Just Are Not Comfortable. I Hate Wearing Anything That Makes Me Feel Like I Have It On, And Blue Jeans Make Me Feel Like I'm Wearing Burlap.

The Real Issue, As Far As Democrats Are Concerned, Is The Number Of People Receiving Something From The Government. This Is Exactly What Franklin Delano Roosevelt Had In Mind When He Created This Monster. And Clinton Is Planning To Expand It Beyond Roosevelt's Wildest Dreams.

We Have Been In The Process Of Reprogramming Men And The Way They Are Raised For A Long Time.

Football Is Like Life And I Know Life.

I Think What We've Had Here Is A Little Social Concern In The Nfl. The Media Has Been Very Desirous That A Black Quarterback Do Well. There Is A Little Hope Invested In Mcnabb, And He Got A Lot Of Credit For The Performance Of This Team That He Didn't Deserve. The Defense Carried This Team.

It's Abundantly Clear The Democrats Want To Eliminate Us.

Barack Obama And The Democrat Party Convince People That America's Best Days Are Over.

The Obama Camp, The White House, And The Media All Condemned Romney Before They Condemned The Attacks. Obama Thought It More Worthwhile To Hit Romney For What He Was Doing Than The Terrorists For What They Did. Romney Got Hit First.

I Often Hear That It's Unfair That Athletes Should Make What They Make Versus Teachers, Because Who's More Important. But That's Not How The Market Works. Markets Don't Sign Things. You Know What You're Worth Is What Somebody Will Pay You. It's Not Some Arbitrary - The Purpose Of A Company Is Not To Create Jobs And Health Care. That's Not Why They Exist. And It's Not To Create Fairness Or Any Of That. That's Not Why People Form Businesses And Try To Sell A Service Or A Product.

I Want People To Take Care Of Themselves.

At Least In My Perception, Seeing Accomplishments Of Minorities Is A Way To Actually Be Critical Of The Country, Not Celebratory Of It. The Reason For Celebrating All Of These Minorities - Women, African-americans, Pick Your Minority - Who Do Something That Hasn't Been Done By Somebody In That Group Before? The Media Goes Nuts. It's One Of The Greatest Things In The World! At The Root Of That Is That America's Unjust, That America Is Unfair, And That America Discriminates, And That America Is Biased And Bigoted And Whatever.

White People Deserve To Be Hit, Deserve To Be The Victims Of Crime And Acts Of Terror Because They Have For So Long Been The Unfair, Unjust, Immoral Majority Throughout Most Of The Nations That Are Imbued With Western Civilization. If You Think That’s An Exaggeration, It Isn’t. That Is Exactly How The Democrat Party Of Today And The American Left Looks At Things.

There Is No Croatian Dream. There Is No European Union Dream. There Is No Chinese Communist Dream, Except Maybe To Get Out. But There Is And Always Has Been An American Dream. And The Dream Is Possible. The Dream Can Become Real.

To Me There's Nothing To Get Excited About With Hillary Clinton. I Mean, Maybe There's Things To Get Excited About In Terms Of, Scared Of, Opposition. But I Don't Think Hillary Has This Large Army Of Devoted Fans Willing To Go Through Fire For Her.

You Just Gotta Be Who You Are, And I Think It's Time To Get Rid Of This Whole National Basketball Association. Call It The Tba, The Thug Basketball Association, And Stop Calling Them Teams. Call 'em Gangs.

You Will Agree That The Duke Lacrosse Team Raped And Damaged Or Whatever, Even Though It Didn't Happen. You Will Be Made To Agree. You Will Understand That There Is Going To Be Amnesty And You Will Love It And You Will Stop Speaking Out Against It. And Until You Do, You Are In Our Crosshairs. It's Who They Are. That Is The Modern-day Democrat Party, And Certainly That Is The Attitude Of Their Major Donors.

The Media Is Not Going To Change.

Modern-era Feminists Believe That There Is No Inherent Difference In Men And Women, That It's All The Way They're Raised.

Why Would We Expect The French To Fight To Liberate The Iraqis When They Wouldn't Fight To Liberate Themselves?

The Way Obama Voters And Non-obama Voters Deal With Unemployment Are A Very Different.

It Doesn't Matter What The Fbi Says. The New York Times Is That Big A Bible For People On The Left.

Capitalism Is Always Evaluated Against Dreams. Utopia Is A Dream. It Doesn't Exist.

Obama Had The Media; Obama Had The Judiciary; Obama Had All Kinds Of Support. At An Obama Press Conference, Typical Question, "what Enchants You?" I Mean, Obama Was Never Challenged Seriously By The Media.

Now, You'll Hear People Call Here On My Show Claiming They Used To Be Lib And They've Changed Their Minds. That Happens, But It Happens Naturally. It's Not Because I've Focused On Trying To Persuade People. I Think While It's A Noble Objective To Try To Help People To See Things The Right Way, This Is A Different Psychological Collection Of Human Beings, And They Are Walled Off From Anything That's Not Them.

If You're A Victim, You're Always Mad, But Never At Yourself. You're Mad At Somebody Else.

The World’s Biggest Problem Is The Unequal Distribution Of Capitalism. If There Were Capitalism Everywhere, You Wouldn’t Have Food Shortages.

To Somebody Like Obama, Substantive Opposition Is Not Tolerable. The Objective Is To Eliminate All Opposition - Be It A Political Party, Be It Media, Or What Have You.

Every Third Our Fourth Generation That Comes Along Refuses To Accept The Way Their Parents And Grandparents Are Living. They Just Don't Want Any Part Of It, And Millennials Are Doing That In A Way. The Millennials, You Talk To A Lot Of Their Parents, And They Don't Recognize 'em When They Compare Them To Themselves.

Liberals Sit From This Lofty Perch Of Pomposity, But They Are The Champions Of Ignorance. They Don't Know What They're Talking About.

The United States Of America Provides The Freedom, I Should Say Permits, Allows, Does Not Constrain The Freedom That We're All Born With That Allows Each Of Us To Pursue Whatever It Is That We Define As A Quality Of Life. Access To Quality-of-life Services, Access To Quality-of-life Products Is Unparalleled In The United States Of America.

Quality Of Life

I Could Be Wrong About That, And [susan Rice ] May Have Really Wanted [secretary Of State Place]. But Now She Has Become A Liability. If, In Fact, It Was Legitimate. If [barack Obama] Wanted Her And She Wanted It, They've Told Her To Go Pound Sand Now, And That's Purely Because Of Benghazi.

Health Care Is Very Complicated, And The Government's Had Its Tentacles Woven Deeply Into This Whole Charade For Over 50 Years. But I Don't Understand Why It's This Hard That You Can't Do Anything? It's The Same Thing As, "well, Rush, You Know, Once An Entitlement's Been Put Into Law, Rush, You Can't Take It Away." Yes, You Can! It's Just You Can't Have Elected People Do It Thinking They'll Get Reelected If They Do It. But You Can Do It.

Since Hillary Clinton Won The Popular Vote, Why Are They Complaining About The Russians Hacking The Election? I Mean, Hillary Wins The Popular Vote, What More Can A Hacker Do Than Get You The Majority Of The Popular Vote? But Yet They're Running Around Complaining About The Hackers And They're Blaming The Russians For Stealing The Election.

When It Comes To Understanding The Nuts And Bolts Of The Details Of Any Policy, The Elites Haven't The Slightest Idea. I'm Sure You've Done This, Too. In Every Gun Control Debate, Somebody, Some Smart Aleck Will Pop Up And Say The Truth. The Guns Not Killing Anybody. The Person Pulling The Trigger Is. And Then Somebody Will Say, You Know If You People Were Really Serious, You'd Ban Bullets, A Gun's Worthless Without Bullets. And Here We Are. Here We Are. Isn't It Much Easier To Ban The Production, The Manufacture, And The Sale Of Bullets Than Guns?

The Democrat Party Makes As Many People Victims As Possible Because It Freezes Them Right Where They Are. And That's Usually In Lower Middle Class Or Abject Poverty. It Makes Them Resentful.

Our Political System Cannot Stop The Degradation Of Our Culture.

I'm Not Living Under False Delusions Myself.

If The Popular Vote Elected The President Today, Two States - California And New York - Would Be All You Would Need. And That Means Campaigns Would Occur Only There And Campaigns Would Focus Only On Issues Relevant To Those People In Those States.

You Have This Special Place - America, You Want It To Remain Special, You Better Find Out Why It Became Special.

If You Really Want To Get Rid Of The Problems In The Nfl, Put Obama In Charge Of It: In A Few Months It Will Be So Deep In Debt It Will Have To Go Out Of Business - No More Concussions.

I Think You Know What's New About This The Democrat Party Not Liking The Russians. That's A First. The Democrat Party Not Liking The Idea The Soviet Union Back Together.

The New York Times Carries As Much Weight As The Fbi, And If The New York Times Says There's Nothing To See Between Trump And Russia And Putin, Then There's Nothing To See.

Millennials Really Don't Turn Out In Numbers That People Expect And Hope For. Speaking Of Global Warming And Climate Change, You Know All These Emails That Wikileaks Is Dumping? I Haven't Found Any On Climate Change. We Got Emails From Hillary To Her Campaign Staff And Her Campaign Staff To Hillary.

Obamacare Is His. The Stimulus Is His. The Economy Is His. And Yet Barack Obama Still Treats It As Though It's Being Run By Others And He's Still Fighting Them And He's Running Into Obstacles.

Our Nation Was Created In Ways That Allow Human Potential To Prosper, And It Created The Greatest Nation For People In The History Of Humanity. Now Obama Is Dismantling It, Because He Has No Appreciation For Our Greatness. In Fact, He Resents It. He Blames This Country For Whatever Evils He Sees Around The World.

Liberal Democrats Are Inexorably Opposed To Tax Cuts, Because Tax Cuts Give People More Power, And Take Away From The Role Of Government.

The Threat Of A Government Shutdown Has Caused The Republicans And Donald Trump, As Of Now, To Delay The Funding For The Wall Until The Fiscal Year 2017-18 Budget Year, Which Will Happen In September. This Has The Potential Of Bothering Some Trump Supporters. This Is Not Nearly Enough Callers To Make Any Kind Of Scientific Statement, But Every Caller We Took On Said - Delaying The Wall Is Not What I Want. The More You Delay It, The Greater The Chance It Isn't Gonna Happen.

Barack Obama Is A Street Corner Community Organizer Who Is Using The Office Of The Presidency Here To Virtually Undermine It.

What Bothers Me Is That I Don't See The Eagerness For A Genuine Solution To The Political People On The Opposite Side. They Want To Continue To Use The Grievance, To Use Whatever Happened Hundreds Of Years Ago That Did Not Even Happen To Them, As A Way Of Expressing How This Country Is Failing Or Is Less Than Decent And Good.

I Don't Know How Men Can Be Held To That Ohio State Agreement [on Having Sex], Policy, Anyway, Because Everybody Knows In Sex Men Don't Think With Their Brains.

The Left Does Not Like Self-reliance And Individuality And The Disparities In Wealth And Income That Result. So The Left Has Targeted Capitalism Forever On The Pretext That It's Unfair, That It's Unequal, That It Is Mean-spirited, That It Is White Patriarchal Christianity - And All Of These Horrible, Rotten Things.

If Your Kids Are Realizing That They Descend From Something, That's Really Great. The More You're Able To Inculcate That The Greater Amount Of Pride They're Gonna Have. That's Incredible.

There's A Reason People Are Not Going To Obamacare. They Find Out What It's Gonna Cost 'em, And They Go Somewhere Else. And In The Process, They're Undermining The Very Foundation Of Obamacare, All Of Which Was Predictable.

There Is Not A Morsel Of Evidence Backing Up Any Of The Claims Or Any Of The Narratives Or Any Of The Premises That Make Up Today's News. There Is Not A Morsel Of Evidence On Anybody. There's Not A Morsel Of Evidence On Flynn! On Manafort! On Carter Page! There's No Evidence On Trump! And Yet The Reporting Goes On. Convicted Of High Crimes Already Without A Trial. It's A Great Piece By Eli Lake.

It's All About Raising More Money. And They Have To Keep This Alive, So Hillary [clinton] Got Cheated.

The Left Can't Accept Rejection, They Can't Accept Defeat, And They're Gonna Spend The Next Four Years [2017-2020] Telling Themselves They Didn't Lose, That Trump Is Illegitimate, And They're Gonna Have The Media Just Dumping All Over The Republicans Each And Every Day, And Who Knows What Role Obama's Gonna Play In That, But He Will Be Playing One.

In 1978, '79, If You Were Unemployed, You Didn't Have An Phone, You Didn't Have A Big-screen Tv, You Didn't Have Air-conditioned House, And You Weren't Guaranteed To Be Eating Three Meals A Day. You Had Welfare, You Had Unemployment, But You Didn't Have The Kind Of Government Support System/safety Nets That Exist Today. So That's A Difference. But Today The Economic Circumstances Really No Different.

Th Left Laugh At The Idea That You Think We Might Have Been On The Verge Of Losing America. They Laugh At It. So If They Don't Understand That, If They Mock That, Laugh At That, They're Never Going To Understand Trump Or Why People Voted For Him. There's No Way They Can.

Nobody Has Told Trump That He Can't Defund Sanctuary Cities, Because The Judge William Orrick Did Not Rule That Law Unconstitutional. This Was A Pure Exercise In Nothing More But A Refusal To Acknowledge The Authority Vested In Donald Trump As President. This Was Nothing More Than Yet Another Judge Essentially Saying, "you Don't Have The Power To Do Anything Because I Don't Acknowledge You As President And I Don't Acknowledge Your Oath Of Office Because You're Not Sane And You're Not Of Sound Mind To Actually Tell The Truth When You Take The Oath Of Office."

Class Warfare Always Sounds Good. Taking Action Against The Rich And The Powerful And Making 'em Pay For What They Do, It Always Sounds Good. But That's Not The Job Of The Supreme Court. The Supreme Court Standing On The Side Of The American People? The Supreme Court Adjudicates The Law. The Supreme Court Determines The Constitutionality Of Things And Other Things. The Supreme Court's Gotten Way Out Of Focus, In My Opinion.

We Are Forward Planning And Strategic On What The Planet Will Look Like With Climate Change As We Decide To Go Into Various Areas Of The World If We Have To.

Tip O'neill, Even After Ronald Reagan Became President, Called Him "an Amiable Dunce," Which Is What The Democrats Always Do.

Where Does It Say That We Must Allow Anyone Who Wants To Come To America To Come In And Become A Citizen. I Mean, This Is A Very, Very Tough Thing To Discuss.

The Establishment, Both Parties, Think "donald Trump May Have Built Buildings And He May Have Written The Art Of The Deal, But He Can't Do What We Did. He Can't Even Understand What We Do Because He's Too Stupid." They May Not Say It That Way, But I Guarantee You They Have That Attitude. These Are Arrogant People. They're Very Exclusive. It Is A Very Elite, Unique Group, In Their Own Minds, And They Do Tell Themselves They're Special And They're Different And They're Better.

Donald Trump Wins 2,623 Counties And Hillary Clinton With 489. You Know How Many Counties Independents Won? Zero. Just Like They Always Have. Not One County. Independents Did Not Win One County. The Exception To That, 1992 When Ross Perot Won 15. The Independents Don't Win Anything. That's Why I've Always - The Precious Independents And The Moderates And So Forth. So Much Bohunk Out There.

I Would Love For Hillary's [clinton] Massive Ad Campaign To Be Pointless And Worthless. I Would Love For It To Bomb Out.

The Left Have Taken A Really Beautiful Thing, Male-female Relationships, And Turned Them Into A Battle, A Political Battle, An Ideological War. And If You Doubt Me, What Is The War On Women? What The Hell Is It? How Crazy Is That Entire Concept, That There Is A Political Party Conducting A War On Women Because They Hate Them. And The Fact That They Can Sell That To Their Voters And Make Political Gain On That Basis Is Damn Amazing To Me. And Yet How Many People Do You Know Who Really Believe That There's A War On Women, That Republicans/conservatives Don't Like Women?

The Guy [bill Clinton] Was A Known, Let's Say, "raconteur."

It Seems From Pope Francis, Immigrants, Anybody Who Doesn't Live Here In America, Has An Automatic Right To Come Here Just Because There's No Other Place Like It On Earth. And What Is Never Discussed Is How It Got So Special. How Did It Happen? Why Is It So Prosperous? Why Is It So Free?

What The Left Have Done Is Screw Up Everybody's Human Nature Where The Opposite Sex Is Concerned. Now Nobody Knows Who They're Supposed To Be, Where They're Supposed To Be, What They Can And Can't Say, Because Who Are The Police In All Of This? American Leftists And Liberals Who Have As Their Objective Political Agenda Victory In Every Aspect Of Life.

If You're Conservative, If You're Republican, I Dare Say That If You're Over 50, You Didn't Think - You Never Thought - That What Happened Last November Would Be Possible. You Wouldn't Think A Republican, I Don't Care Who It Is, Could Win The White House And That We Would Control The House And The Senate At The Same Time And Have The Democrats' 2018 Prospects Be In The Tank, Which They Are.

So 38% Think That Donald Trump's Not Qualified To Be President. How Many People Thought That About Bill Clinton? Bill Clinton Actually Did The Kind Of Things Trump Is Talking About.

The Democrats Have Always Owned The Pessimism. It's Just The Way It's Worked Out.

As Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton Was Rolled By Everybody.

I'm Not Opposed To Reaching Out Hispanics. I'm All For Reaching Out To Everybody! As Americans. Not As Members Of Groups, And Not Treating People As Though They're Legitimate Members Of Some Grievance Group, But Reaching Out To Them As Human Beings.

Conservatism's Not The Answer. The Republican Party Has To Reach Out, Moderate And Modify Its Views To Be Able To Accommodate Radical Democrats, Minorities, And So Forth.

So [donald ] Trump Gave A Speech On National Security And Military Affairs To A Military-themed Audience In Philadelphia, And There Was No Vulgarity In It. There Was No Bombast. There Wasn't Any Of The Usual Trump Braggadocio. It Was A Teleprompter Speech, But It Was Serious, Studious, And It Represented A Solid Understanding Of Issues And Of The Status Quo.

What Hillary Clinton Is Known For Is The Bimbo Eruptions Unit. What She Is Known For - And The Reason That She Has Been Nominated - Is That She Saved Her Husband And Thus Saved The Democrat Party By Agreeing To Defend Her Husband And Go After The Women, And Not Just The Women. She Went After The Entire Conservative Movement And Blamed Us For What Her Husband Was Doing! It Was "the Vast Right-wing Conspiracy."

None Of What We [as Country] Have Done Is Credited. None Of The Good Works. Our Foreign Affairs Budget, Foreign Aid Budget, None Of It Is Ever Thanked.

[democrat Party] Believe That There's Gonna Be Mass Appreciation And Love And Everybody's Gonna Be Getting Along.

The Never Trumpers, They Have Never Been Guided By Or Governed By The Premise That Hillary Clinton Needs To Lose. If They Were On The Same Page As We All Are, That The Country, That Our Country Needs For Hillary Clinton And The Obama Agenda To Lose And Be Stopped, They Don't See That. They Never Have.

Feminism Was Established To Allow Unattractive Women Easier Access To The Mainstream.
