It's a Monday morning in New Hampshire, and there's so much to talk about from Saturday night's Republican Debates. Plus, Beyonce shakes her ass in racist fashion, and Beyonce is a racist. Ben Shapiro breaks it all down, and explains why Chris Christie was the real loser of the debate, and why Marco Rubio was the only one who can actually defend himself against Chris Christie's body slamming him in the first presidential debate. Plus, a look at what happened after the debate and the fallout from it, including the fact that Chris Christie is the only presidential candidate who can defend himself in the face of Chris Christie s body slamming of him, and how Marco Rubio is the one person who can do it better than Chris Christie, and that's why he's the one who's going to win the nomination in 2020. And that's good news for Donald Trump, because he's not going to lose the primary election unless Chris Christie beats him at his own game of "Who's the Realest Person in the Room?" If you don't like it, you'll have to wait until next week's episode of The Ben Shapiro Show, where we'll be covering the Democratic primary debate, where Chris Christie takes a shot at the Democratic nomination, which will be much, much better! Thanks for listening, Ben! Tweet me if you liked the show! and let us know what you thought of it! Timestamps, if you have any thoughts on Chris Christie or Marco Rubio or Donald Trump or Ted Cruz, tweet us or other candidates you think Chris Christie should have been a better than Marco Rubio, and we'll have a shoutout in the next episode of the show. . and we'd love to hear your thoughts on that one! or your thoughts about Chris Christie and how he's a good guy, too! in the comments section! on this episode! if so, we'd like to hear what you think of the episode. - Ben Shapiro - tweet us in a review of the Republican Debate? ;) <3 - Timestamp: in your thoughts, Ben Shapiro: 5 stars: 4:00 - 5:30 - 6:15 - 7:40 - Marco Rubio - 8:00 9:00 | Chris Christie - 11:40 | 12:20 - What do you think about it? 15:30 16:10 - Is he a bad guy? 17:15 18:10 19:40 21:30 | 22:00 / 16:40 / 17:30 / 18:20
00:00:11.000Well, this is going to be a slam-packed, jam-packed show.
00:00:22.000Yeah, Mathis over here who had to spend the last nine hours cutting audio just so that we could do this show.
00:00:26.000I know that he's going to be eager for us to get to each and every clip that he cut to justify the amount of sweat equity that he put into this particular episode.
00:01:08.000Well, the debate had some real ramifications, but first we'll start off with... I've said that this entire Republican race is becoming a circus.
00:04:18.000I don't even know, you know, what have you done?
00:04:20.000What do you do for a living, basically?
00:04:23.000And Marco Rubio ends up repeating the same line three times in the space of 45 seconds as Chris Christie is calling him out for being too robotic.
00:05:08.000And the fact is... The fact is, when you talk about the Hezbollah Sanctions Act that you list as one of your accomplishments and just did, you weren't even there to vote for it.
00:05:20.000That's not leadership, that's truancy.
00:05:22.000The fact is that what we need to have in this country is not to make the same mistake we made eight years ago.
00:05:28.000The fact is it does matter when you have to make decisions to be held accountable for them.
00:05:31.000It does matter when the challenges don't come on a list of a piece of paper of what to vote yes or no every day, but when the problems come in from the people that you serve.
00:07:17.000The drive-by shot at the beginning with incorrect and incomplete information and then the memorized 25-second speech that is exactly what his advisors gave him.
00:07:34.000When you're president of the United States, when you're governor of a state, the memorized 30-second speech where you talk about how great America is at the end of it doesn't solve one problem for one person.
00:08:31.000And that's when, you know, Christie has him on the ropes.
00:08:35.000And the problem is that Christie's using a tactic on him that I've used in debate too, which is he's calling out Rubio's tactic before Rubio actually uses it, so it looks like he's been programmed.
00:08:45.000And it's true, this has always been the rap on Rubio, is that Rubio is shallow, Rubio doesn't have a lot to say, Rubio doesn't have a real fundamental philosophy, and so he goes to his talking points a lot.
00:08:56.000There's also something deeper here, which is if you're a conservative, and you're thinking, there's somebody I don't want pushed around, meaning not just pushed around like somebody's gonna make fun of you,
00:09:04.000But somebody who is not going to feel weak when he's hit.
00:10:14.000He seems like a less edgy version of Mitt Romney to me when I watch him in debate.
00:10:19.000A smoother, kinder, less edgy version of Mitt Romney?
00:10:22.000I'm not sure that's gonna cut it against the most vicious politician of my lifetime other than Barack Obama.
00:10:27.000Okay, so here's the other problem that I have with these debate formats.
00:10:30.000They tend to feature moments like the one you just saw, Christie vs. Rubio, over the content.
00:10:34.000So there's one point at which Chris Christie, who is widely considered to have done very well in the debate because he face-planted Rubio, he said something that is so egregiously wrong and nasty.
00:10:49.000Rubio is not in favor of abortion exceptions for rape and incest.
00:10:54.000Which is a perfectly legitimate position.
00:10:56.000It's a position that makes logical sense, because you can think that rapists ought to be castrated or killed, but that babies are babies, and they ought not be killed, no matter what the circumstance.
00:11:19.000I've been pretty helpful to the pro-life cause in one of the most pro-choice states in the union.
00:11:23.000I stood up for the first time, and now for the last six years we've defunded Planned Parenthood.
00:11:27.000Not talked about it like they do in Washington, D.C., but for six years as governor, Planned Parenthood does not receive that funding from the state budget anymore.
00:11:35.000Over $50 million worth of money that's been saved now that is not going to do exactly what Hillary Clinton wants to have done, has advocated for.
00:11:43.000She believes that that organization, which engages in the systematic murder of children in the womb,
00:11:48.000In order to maximize the value of their body parts for sale on the open market is an acceptable position.
00:11:53.000I don't care whether you're a millennial or whether you're in your 90s.
00:11:56.000No one, no one is for that type of activity unless you are the most radical type of extremist on this issue like Senator Clinton and her party is on this issue.
00:12:23.000And the fact is that we have always believed, as has Ronald Reagan, that we have self-defense for women who have been raped and impregnated because of it, or the subject of incest and been impregnated for it.
00:12:34.000That woman should not have to deliver that child if they believe that violation is now an act of self-defense by terminating that pregnancy.
00:13:36.000But to say that you have self-defense rights against a baby is beyond ridiculous.
00:13:40.000Okay, so, one of the things that's happened, you may have noticed, is that as these debates go forward, I become more and more disgusted with everyone.
00:14:41.000Not since medieval times have people seen what's going on.
00:14:44.000I would bring back waterboarding, and I'd bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding.
00:14:50.000Okay, so this is what people like about Trump.
00:14:53.000I do have to say, when he says we learned from medieval times, I have a feeling that Donald Trump actually went to the restaurant Medieval Times and watched the jousting, and that's how he learned about medieval history.
00:15:03.000But, what he says there is basically right.
00:15:05.000No one in America cares whether we waterboard terrorists.
00:15:48.000I'm talking about to the television audience.
00:15:51.000Donors, special interests, the people that are putting up the money.
00:15:58.000The RNC told us we have all donors in the audience and the reason they're not loving me
00:16:04.000The reason they're not, excuse me, the reason they're not loving me is I don't want their money.
00:16:08.000I'm gonna do the right thing for the American public.
00:16:11.000I don't want their money, I don't need their money, and I'm the only one up here that can say that.
00:16:16.000Okay, that's actually Donald Trump's best line of the debate, and it's very effective because he is very wealthy.
00:16:20.000Now, Donald Trump also has spent the weekend saying he agrees with Bernie Sanders on trade, that he doesn't want to increase the defense budget, that he wants to move left on a variety of issues.
00:16:32.000He's moving pretty significantly to the left now, and there's a good shot that if he wins New Hampshire, the establishment moves behind him just because they have no other options.
00:16:40.000So, what you just saw is the good side of Trump.
00:18:39.000has done something to Ted Cruz that is really quite disreputable.
00:18:43.000So, we talked about it last week, okay?
00:18:46.000Ben Carson told CNN he was going on break, that he was going to go back to Florida to pick up shirts or something, and he was not going to go to South Carolina or New Hampshire before South Carolina and New Hampshire, he was just going to go back to Washington, D.C.
00:18:58.000CNN played the tape and they said that, on the tape of CNN, they talk about this is very important, it obviously signifies that something big is happening,
00:19:06.000You know, if you want to win, you don't do this.
00:19:07.000In other words, the campaign is basically over.
00:19:09.000The Cruz campaign let all of their precinct captains know that Carson was taking a break from campaigning and to let people know that Carson was basically out.
00:21:01.000Well, you know, when I wasn't introduced number two, as was the plan, I thought maybe he thought I already had dropped out.
00:21:11.000But, you know, today is the 105th anniversary or
00:21:17.000I will say that I was very disappointed that members of his team thought so little of me.
00:21:44.000That they thought that after having hundreds if not thousands of volunteers and college students who sacrificed their time and were dedicated to the cause, one even died.
00:21:59.000To think that I would just walk away ten minutes before the caucus and say, forget about you guys.
00:22:06.000I mean, who would do something like that?
00:22:08.000No, I don't think anyone on this stage would do something like that.
00:22:11.000And to assume that someone would, what does that tell you?
00:23:11.000You got Ted Cruz, who just got savaged by Carson.
00:23:14.000You got Donald Trump in the middle there, looking tall and big.
00:23:17.000You got Marco Rubio, who just got his butt handed to him by Chris Christie.
00:23:20.000You got Jeb, who's been toast for a long time.
00:23:22.000And you got John Kasich, who's standing off to the side fruit chopping things.
00:23:25.000So, the only person on the stage who didn't get attacked, really, there are only two people on the stage who really escaped attack on Saturday night.
00:23:32.000John Kasich, who will probably finish second in New Hampshire, and Donald Trump.
00:25:13.000And he is sitting across from Marco Rubio, interviewing him like he's an objective journalist, looking like the overgrown Keebler elf here.
00:25:19.000And Rubio, you're gonna hear, he doubles down on the why I repeated myself routine.
00:26:06.000He has said he wanted to change the country, he's doing it in a way that is robbing us of everything that makes us special.
00:26:11.000I'm gonna keep saying that because that not only is it the truth, it is at the core of our campaign.
00:26:14.000But even after Chris Christie called you out for what he called canned speeches, 25 second canned speeches, you repeated again, he says, there you go.
00:26:21.000Again, that was not a good moment for you, was it?
00:26:44.000But I guess the rule is you never apologize and you never compromise.
00:26:49.000Again, all of this just makes Republicans look bad.
00:26:51.000What's amazing about this is on the other side of the aisle is the weakest Democratic candidate that maybe I have ever seen.
00:26:58.000Hillary Clinton, if you remember back to last Thursday night, last Thursday night there was a debate between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
00:27:03.000We didn't really get a chance to comment on it because we don't do the podcast on Fridays.
00:27:07.000Don't worry, I get a lot of questions about this.
00:27:08.000We will be doing a podcast on Fridays very soon.
00:27:11.000It'll be a crossover podcast, so it'll be me and Clavin and we'll chat about things.
00:27:15.000He'll be an optimist, I'll be a pessimist.
00:27:17.000He'll be wrong and I'll be right, because pessimism is always right.
00:27:20.000And anyway, on Thursday night, this is what Hillary Clinton, she was asked about her Goldman Sachs speeches.
00:27:26.000She gave speeches worth $675,000 to Goldman Sachs, and she has transcripts of those speeches.
00:27:32.000It turns out she, in her contract, requires there be a transcriptionist, a stenographer there, to actually write down everything that she says.
00:27:39.000And she has all the rights to those transcripts.
00:27:41.000And she was asked about this during the debate, and here's what she said.
00:27:45.000Are you willing to release the transcripts of all your paid speeches?
00:27:48.000We do know, through reporting, that there were transcription services for all of those paid speeches.
00:27:53.000In full disclosure, would you release all of them?
00:27:57.000I don't know the status, but I will certainly look into it.
00:28:00.000But I can only repeat what is the fact, that I spoke to a lot of different groups with a lot of different constituents, a lot of different kinds of members, about issues that had to do with world affairs.
00:28:12.000I probably described more times than I can remember.
00:28:16.000How stressful it was advising the president about going after Bin Laden.
00:31:56.000Every woman I know knows it, whether you're in the media as a woman or you're in the professions or business or politics.
00:32:06.000And I don't know anything other to do than just keep forging through it and just taking the slings and arrows that come with being a woman.
00:32:36.000So everybody's a sexist who says that she should
00:32:40.000Stop screaming during her speeches because it's shrill and annoying, which it is, and everybody's only attacking her because she's a woman.
00:32:49.000So what does she do to push this meme forward?
00:32:51.000You remember back in 2008, she did the same thing.
00:32:56.000She brought up the tears in 2008 so that she could stay competitive because it looked like Obama might beat her in New Hampshire.
00:33:01.000So Hillary Clinton now, she's saying that the only reason people are targeting her is not because she's deeply corrupt, not because she's secretive, not because she's shrill, not because she's grating, not because she's annoying, but because she's just the same as everybody else, but she's a woman.
00:33:16.000It's funny, you know, when we say shrill, there's certain female candidates we've never called shrill.
00:33:20.000Dianne Feinstein, for example, is not shrill.
00:34:14.000Former President Bill Clinton unleashing a blistering, no-holds-barred attack on his wife's rival, Bernie Sanders, going after Sanders' health care plan.
00:34:26.000Labeling Sanders as dishonest and hypocritical in his criticism of the financial sector he so often rails against.
00:34:33.000Anybody who takes money from Goldman Sachs couldn't possibly be president.
00:34:37.000He may have to tweak that answer a little bit.
00:34:39.000Either that or we're going to have to get us a write-in candidate.
00:34:42.000The former president's words were stinging, blasting the Vermont senator and his supporters for what he called inaccurate and sexist attacks, including Bernie Bros, the mobs of Sanders supporters who use crude language to attack Hillary Clinton backers online.
00:34:58.000People who have gone online to defend Hillary and explain, just explain why they supported her, have been subject to attacks that are literally too profane often
00:35:23.000Somebody should ask Bill Clinton if those tactics include holding a woman down on a bed and raping her.
00:35:28.000Okay, or if those tactics include sequestering a woman off the side of the Oval Office and sexually abusing her, as he did to Kathleen Willey.
00:35:36.000Or whether those tactics include having your wife intimidate your rape victims, like Juanita Broderick.
00:35:43.000My goodness, what a terrible candidate Hillary is, and anybody with a- I mean, if Bernie Sanders had a set on him, he would actually say this.
00:35:49.000Bernie Sanders is trying to run the all-positive campaign, but it would behoove him at some point to mention the fact that Bill Clinton is not exactly a warrior for women.
00:36:14.000Time for some things I like and then some things that I hate.
00:36:16.000The things I hate will be the Super Bowl edition things I hate, with all that that implies.
00:36:21.000Things I like, I'm in the middle of a movie called Black Mass with Johnny Depp, haven't seen the rest of it yet, about halfway through, so far so good.
00:36:29.000Alright, so, I watched the Super Bowl yesterday.
00:36:31.000My dad and I usually get together every year and watch the Super Bowl.
00:36:36.000And so, all I want when I watch the Super Bowl is to watch the football.
00:36:42.000I watch the commercials because this has become sort of a cultural totem, it's become a cultural hallmark, everybody wants to watch the commercials, and that's fine, that's great, except I have to say the commercials have been steadily, in my lifetime, getting worse and worse.
00:36:53.000I mean, the commercials are basically all just sex jokes, and monkeys, and pets, like, ooh, people like monkeys, let's put that in a commercial!
00:37:01.000People like babies too, let's put that in- how about we'll have a monkey baby dog?
00:37:05.000Which they actually did, in a commercial yesterday.
00:37:08.000The commercials were really quite terrible, but what I really, really hate, what I really hate is that the left has decided that every cultural event has to now be dominated by leftism.
00:37:21.000So imagine, for example, that you had a Super Bowl, and it took place in Texas, and there was a country singer, and the country singer surrounded himself, during the Super Bowl halftime show, with a bunch of kids who were holding Bibles, and a bunch of women who were holding crosses.
00:37:44.000Wouldn't—do you think that the media would have a field day with that?
00:37:46.000Oh, you bet the media would have a field day.
00:37:48.000It's so alienating, so terrible, so non-inclusive.
00:37:51.000Beyonce, who is now married to Jay-Z and can do no wrong, she farts social justice rainbows, but Beyonce is considered this wildly talented, massive talent, just a joy to behold, a real addition to God's Earth.
00:38:05.000Okay, Beyonce actually has a really good voice, or used to.
00:38:08.000I don't know if it's good anymore because she hasn't sung in five years.
00:38:11.000So, Beyonce now has been relegated to shaking her boobs, shaking her ass, and racial commentary.
00:38:18.000That's basically what her stunt is now.
00:38:21.000Ever since she married Jay-Z, who by the way is a jerk also.
00:38:24.000Jay-Z wears a medallion for what is called the 5% Nation.
00:38:28.000The 5% Nation believes that black people are superior to white people.
00:41:53.000I'm sorry, but if a white person said about a bunch of black people that what makes you black is that when you get screwed good, you take your ass to Red Lobster, everybody would realize just how racist and terrible that is.
00:42:03.000But Beyonce gets to say it because the rules don't apply.
00:42:07.000The Black Panthers were a terrorist group, okay?
00:42:09.000If you had a white terrorist group that were being honored, a bunch of people in white sheets out there in the middle of the Super Bowl, everybody would realize how disgusting this is.
00:42:16.000By the way, Cosmopolitan calls this garbage piece of non-music the most perfect song since the Paleozoic era.
00:42:23.000Somebody should note to them the Paleozoic era was not really remnant.
00:42:27.000It's not respected for its tunefulness, the Paleozoic era.
00:42:30.000But the music video for this is even worse.
00:42:32.000I mean, if you actually look at the music video that this is based on, in the music video, there's a line of white cops standing by as a black teenager walks up to them, then there's a wall with graffiti that says, stop shooting us.
00:42:43.000Let me ask you, if she really thinks that this is gonna make any black kid in America better off,
00:42:48.000What black kid in America is better off because of this?
00:42:51.000What black kid isn't going to get shot in the inner city because of this?
00:42:53.000What black kid is going to get an education because of this?
00:42:55.000She's just making millions off of a stereotypical depiction of a really negative and nasty culture.
00:43:36.000But it wasn't just that, it wasn't just that.
00:43:38.000There were some Super Bowl commercials.
00:43:40.000This took place in San Francisco, so Coldplay showed up, for no reason, no one likes Coldplay, but Coldplay showed up and sang about same-sex marriage, and then they handed people rainbow placards to hold up in the stands, and then it said, Believe in love.
00:45:15.000Well, I mean, there are standards of behavior, also, and I'm not sure why it's appropriate on national television to show someone grooming their genitals, which I assume is when they say, find your thing, and then they have a shot of a sink low down at, like, waist level.
00:46:56.000Also, the people at Mini Cooper don't care.
00:46:58.000They're just trying to sell you a car.
00:47:00.000But the idea is that we're supposed to feel good about them because of the social justice signaling.
00:47:04.000And this is what the advertising business does.
00:47:06.000They push this idea that if you look at that, and you have a negative feeling about that commercial, if you feel like, this is ridiculous, I just want to buy a car, show me what the car does, that must be because you're a bad person.
00:47:49.000They think America has reached the point where if you don't really like watching guys prancing around in heels and their underwear on national television, they think America has reached the point where they can be shamed about that.
00:51:25.000Okay, so, the commercial for people who can't see it is there's a baby inside an ultrasound.
00:51:30.000It's a mom and a dad, and they're showing an ultrasound of the baby.
00:51:35.000And every time the dad bites on a Dorito, or moves the Dorito, the baby attempts to grab the Dorito, basically, from inside the womb.
00:51:41.000And then at the very end, the mom throws the Dorito down by her feet, and the baby attempts to get out using the only possible escape route.
00:52:54.000I don't need to watch the halftime show and be smacked with
00:52:58.000A bunch of people who killed cops back in the 70s in homage to those people?
00:53:01.000The left says, I don't want to be watching a ballgame and see, like, an ultrasound that shows, like, what an ultrasound actually looks like.
00:53:09.000Okay, every one of these commercials, by the way, like all the Super Bowl commercials, had humanizing of animals.
00:53:16.000Like, every one of them had some sort of talking dog or chipmunk or penguin or something.
00:53:21.000Naral doesn't care about that, obviously.
00:53:22.000They only care about when you humanize something that's actually human.
00:53:25.000Which shows you how evil and despicable they are.
00:53:27.000So, that's the interesting left and right.
00:53:30.000The left is all mad today about what an ultrasound actually looks like, and the right is upset today because the biggest game in America, the most watched TV event...
00:53:38.000In the United States, maybe in history, is replete with leftist imagery.
00:53:43.000And just to top it off, President Obama and wife did their Super Bowl interview.
00:54:24.000Then there's the outside room where the kids are, where they're kind of fooling around, they're by the food, and then there's... We keep them away.
00:54:30.000Then there's what I call the champagne room.
00:54:33.000That's where my mother sits, where you really don't know what's going on, but you're close to the champagne.
00:56:35.000But the idea that you're going to take that and combine it with politics, and then take politics and combine it with celebrity, this is how you end up with a horribly run country where everybody just abdicates duty to the powerful celebrity in charge.
