Summary

Donald Trump drops the F-word at a rally and gets a standing ovation. It's not the first time he's said something that gets him in trouble. He's been doing it for a while now, and it's getting worse and worse. But it's not his fault, it's the world's fault that he says things that offend people. And he's not going to be held down by the boundaries of political correctness. Ben Shapiro takes a look at the New Hampshire primary and explains why Donald Trump doesn't need to apologize for it, and why he's fine with saying things that are just plain rude and vulgar. Plus, he explains why he doesn't care if you like it or not. The world is politically correct, and so is the world.

Transcript

00:00:00.000 Here we are, it is the day of the critical New Hampshire primary, we will get into that.
00:00:05.000 Donald Trump says something vulgar, because today ending in Y. And Y really isn't Trump's fault, really.
00:00:11.000 I'm Ben Shapiro and this is The Ben Shapiro Show.
00:00:22.000 Okie doke.
00:00:22.000 So today is the New Hampshire primary.
00:00:24.000 Donald Trump is going to win.
00:00:25.000 The only question is who comes in second.
00:00:27.000 So there were some late breaking polls that showed Jeb Bush surging.
00:00:30.000 John Kasich and Jeb Bush probably going to compete for second place.
00:00:34.000 One of them will finish third.
00:00:35.000 If Marco Rubio finishes outside the top four, let's say that Ted Cruz finishes fourth, and Marco Rubio finishes fifth, then Marco Rubio has a real problem on his hands.
00:00:44.000 But I don't want to talk too much about what New Hampshire means until tomorrow.
00:00:47.000 We'll wait for the actual results, because why speculate?
00:00:50.000 Instead, I want to talk about something that's happened inside conservatism that is deeply troubling to me.
00:00:56.000 We'll start with Donald Trump yesterday.
00:00:57.000 So Donald Trump is in New Hampshire.
00:01:00.000 And he's doing a rally in New Hampshire.
00:01:02.000 And he's doing the Trump thing, which is he's just freewheeling it.
00:01:05.000 He's like a stand-up comedian.
00:01:07.000 He just gets up there and he just riffs.
00:01:08.000 And at a certain point, a lady in the crowd starts yelling something to him.
00:01:13.000 And here is what Donald Trump does.
00:01:15.000 Here's what he says.
00:01:16.000 Here we go.
00:01:18.000 You heard the other night at debate, they asked Ted Cruz, serious question, well, what do you think of waterboarding?
00:01:24.000 Is it OK?
00:01:25.000 And honestly, I thought he'd say absolutely.
00:01:27.000 And he didn't.
00:01:27.000 He said, well, it's you know, he's concerned about the answer because some people she just said a terrible thing.
00:01:35.000 You know what she said?
00:01:36.000 Shout it out, because I don't want to.
00:01:41.000 Okay, you're not allowed to say, and I never expect to hear that from you again.
00:01:47.000 She said, I never expect to hear that from you again.
00:01:50.000 She said he's a... That's terrible.
00:01:52.000 Terrible.
00:02:02.000 Terrible.
00:02:05.000 That's terrible.
00:02:08.000 Now... Okay, so that's the comedy routine, right?
00:02:25.000 Some lady shouts out from the crowd that he is a... a word for female genitalia.
00:02:31.000 And he picks up on it, and then he repeats it in front of the entire crowd.
00:02:33.000 We bleeped it for people who couldn't hear.
00:02:36.000 But it's been printed pretty much everywhere, so if you wonder what word he said, let's put it this way.
00:02:41.000 In the song What's New Pussycat, it appears many times.
00:02:44.000 So that's what he calls Ted Cruz right there.
00:02:46.000 And his supporters say, oh, he didn't call Ted Cruz that.
00:02:49.000 He was just saying what the lady said.
00:02:51.000 Right.
00:02:52.000 Right.
00:02:53.000 Okay, so you got an arena full of 5,000 people, half of whom are screaming things.
00:02:56.000 He picks out the one lady, repeats what she said, and then walks around the stage laughing about what she said.
00:03:01.000 No, he wasn't repeating it at all.
00:03:03.000 And in fact, Trump later comes out and he says, yeah, it was just something that I was saying that was kind of fun and funny and...
00:03:08.000 It's what I do.
00:03:09.000 And Trump actually ended up telling MSNBC, he said, quote, I was just repeating what she said so everyone could hear, because everyone was desperate to hear what this crazy lady in the front row is screaming.
00:03:20.000 He says, I was doing everybody a favor.
00:03:21.000 I got a standing ovation.
00:03:22.000 The place went wild.
00:03:23.000 You're talking about close to 5,000 people.
00:03:25.000 It was a great moment.
00:03:26.000 The world is politically correct.
00:03:28.000 Right, so the world is politically correct.
00:03:30.000 And this has been Trump's constant refrain, is that when he says things that are terrible or vulgar, that he's just, he's saying something that's not, he's not going to be held down by the conventions and the boundaries of political correctness.
00:03:43.000 And he's been doing this for the last couple of weeks.
00:03:44.000 He's really been ratcheting this up.
00:03:46.000 So the other day, for example, Donald Trump dropped the F-word at one of his rallies, and here's what that looked like.
00:03:51.000 We're gonna have businesses that used to be in New Hampshire that are now in Mexico come back to New Hampshire and you can tell them to go themselves.
00:04:09.000 Okay, so he's dropped the f-word and of course Donald Trump has also dropped the s-word a bunch of times as well.
00:04:16.000 Here for example is Donald Trump talking about the s-word and dropping the s-word.
00:04:20.000 ISIS is making a tremendous amount of money because they have certain oil camps, right?
00:04:24.000 They have certain areas of oil that they took away.
00:04:26.000 They have some in Syria, some in Iraq.
00:04:29.000 I would bomb the shit out of them.
00:04:36.000 Okay, so, let's put it this way.
00:04:38.000 I'm not a prude about bad language.
00:04:40.000 As anyone around the office knows, as soon as I get off the air, it's basically a sailor.
00:04:44.000 I mean, it's... I think a good four-letter word has its place in the English language, and that place is... Actually, it's a variety of places.
00:04:52.000 I think that it applies pretty much... It's a great word.
00:04:55.000 And there are lots of great words in the English language that people use too often, but are still great words.
00:05:01.000 So I'm not a prude when it comes to cursing.
00:05:04.000 However, however, there are some people who are defending all of this as non-vulgar.
00:05:10.000 Now, it is vulgar.
00:05:11.000 Okay, sometimes there's vulgarity with a purpose.
00:05:14.000 So, for example, when I spoke at University of Missouri, I specifically used the word BS, but not BS, like the actual word.
00:05:21.000 I used it a couple of times, and I specifically did that, and I purposely did that, because I was talking to college students.
00:05:27.000 And anybody who's ever dealt with college students knows that cursing is sort of the coin of the realm, that if you want to
00:05:32.000 We're good to go.
00:05:54.000 If I told the real stories of my experiences with women, often seemingly very happily married and important women, this book would be a guaranteed bestseller, which it will be anyway.
00:06:03.000 I'd love to tell all using names and places, but I just don't think it's right.
00:06:07.000 How about this one?
00:06:07.000 When a man leaves a woman, especially when it was perceived that he is left for a piece of ass, a good one!
00:06:12.000 There are 50% of the population who will love the woman who was left.
00:06:17.000 Or how about this?
00:06:18.000 I've said if Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her.
00:06:22.000 And how about this about women, this is from the 80s, quote, you have to treat him like bleep.
00:06:26.000 And how about this?
00:06:27.000 You know, it really doesn't matter what they write as long as you've got a young and beautiful piece of ass.
00:06:32.000 So Donald Trump is a vulgar guy.
00:06:34.000 He's a vulgar guy.
00:06:35.000 Now, that doesn't necessarily mean he's not a conservative guy.
00:06:37.000 And here's what is generating all of the support for Trump.
00:06:40.000 And the vulgarity, the more vulgarity he uses, the more his polls go up.
00:06:43.000 And so the question is why?
00:06:45.000 Why is it that being non-Gentile is seen as some sort of winning persona move for Donald Trump?
00:06:52.000 The answer comes courtesy of New York Times columnist David Brooks.
00:06:56.000 So David Brooks is, he considers himself a conservative.
00:07:00.000 He is not.
00:07:01.000 Today, David Brooks wrote a column that is truly horrifying.
00:07:06.000 He's supposed to be the conservative.
00:07:07.000 He's the conservative at the New York Times.
00:07:09.000 The column is called, I Miss Barack Obama from David Brooks.
00:07:12.000 And here's what he writes.
00:07:13.000 He says, as this primary season has gone along, a strange sensation has come over me.
00:07:19.000 I miss Barack Obama.
00:07:20.000 Now, obviously I disagree with a lot of Obama's policy decisions.
00:07:23.000 I've been disappointed by aspects of his presidency.
00:07:26.000 I hope the next presidency is a philosophic departure.
00:07:29.000 But over the course of this campaign, it feels as if there's been a decline in behavioral standards across the board.
00:07:34.000 Many of the traits of character and leadership Obama possesses, and that maybe we have taken too much for granted, have suddenly gone missing or are in short supply.
00:07:42.000 And then he goes on to talk about how the Obama administration is, he calls it, remarkably scandal-free.
00:07:49.000 He says they're honest, they're remarkably scandal-free, which is an unbelievable statement to make about the administration that sicked the IRS on its political opponents, covered up Benghazi, fast and furious.
00:07:59.000 Hillary Clinton was Barack Obama's Secretary of State when she had a private server.
00:08:02.000 Scandals inside the Environmental Protection Agency, inside the Department of Justice, inside the Health and Human Services Department, inside the Veterans Administration.
00:08:10.000 Literally every place there could be a scandal, there's been a scandal.
00:08:12.000 But that's not truly what
00:08:14.000 What makes David Brooks like Barack Obama?
00:08:17.000 What makes David Brooks like Barack Obama is that Barack Obama appears to be genteel.
00:08:22.000 He appears so civilized.
00:08:24.000 He says that Barack Obama has a basic sense of humanity, a sense of basic humanity.
00:08:29.000 Quote, he's exuded this basic care and respect for the dignity of others time and time again.
00:08:34.000 Let's put it this way.
00:08:35.000 Imagine if Barack and Michelle Obama joined the board of a charity you're involved in.
00:08:39.000 You'd be happy to have such people in your community.
00:08:41.000 Could you say that comfortably about Ted Cruz?
00:08:43.000 So he thinks that the Obamas would be nicer people to have as part of your charity.
00:08:47.000 Never mind the fact that Michelle Obama took a $300,000 salary to do nothing when she was actually on the board of a charity, the University of Chicago Medical Center.
00:08:56.000 Never mind that Barack Obama used the IRS to actually target charities.
00:08:59.000 No, no, no, but Barack Obama is genteel.
00:09:02.000 He says that Obama has a soundness in his decision-making.
00:09:06.000 Vladimir Putin, ISIS, the Iranian military, they all agree.
00:09:09.000 He says that Obama has exhibited grace under pressure.
00:09:12.000 He says a president has to maintain equipoise under enormous pressure.
00:09:15.000 Obama has done that, especially amid the financial crisis.
00:09:19.000 Well, first of all, the financial crisis basically happened under Bush, and Obama had no place to go but up.
00:09:24.000 But, he then continues, he says, Obama has a resilient sense of optimism, as opposed to Trump, and Cruz, and Ben Carson, who wallow in the pornography of pessimism.
00:09:33.000 But Obama's a real optimist.
00:09:36.000 He says, people are motivated to make wise choices, more by hope and opportunity, than by fear, cynicism, hatred, and despair.
00:09:42.000 Unlike many candidates, Obama has not appealed to those passions.
00:09:46.000 Which begs the question where he's been for the last eight years, while Barack Obama told black people all over the United States that the police are out to murder them, told Muslims that white Americans are out to murder them, told gays that white Christians are out to murder them, and then basically let Muslims who are radical run roughshod over the entire Middle East, Vladimir Putin run roughshod through Eastern Europe, and China run roughshod through the South China Sea.
00:10:06.000 So, I don't know where David Brooks has been in all of this, but this is the point.
00:10:10.000 All that David Brooks cares about.
00:10:11.000 David Brooks' brand of conservatism is based around a sensibility.
00:10:16.000 It's not based around policies.
00:10:17.000 It's not based around philosophy.
00:10:19.000 It's based around the sensibility about how people should act with each other.
00:10:22.000 We have to be genteel.
00:10:24.000 We have to be civilized.
00:10:25.000 He says, there's a tone of ugliness creeping across the world as democracies retreat, as tribalism mounts, as suspiciousness and authoritarianism takes center stage.
00:10:33.000 Obama radiates an ethos of integrity, humanity, good manners, and elegance that I'm beginning to miss.
00:10:39.000 First of all, Obama is an authoritarian.
00:10:42.000 He is suspicious.
00:10:43.000 He has been tribal.
00:10:44.000 He has destroyed democracies around the world.
00:10:47.000 But, you know, he says that he's elegant, and that's really what it comes down to, is the level of elegance of Barack Obama.
00:10:53.000 He's just an elegant man.
00:10:54.000 So, on the one hand, you have conservatives who say that Barack Obama is elegant, and that elegance is what conservatism is all about.
00:11:02.000 Here's how David Brooks, this supposed leading conservative thinker, described conservatism back in October, quote,
00:11:09.000 By traditional definitions, conservatism stands for intellectual humility, a belief in steady incremental change, a preference for reform rather than revolution, a respect for hierarchy, precedence, balance, and order, and a tone of voice that is prudent, measured, and responsible.
00:11:23.000 Now let me ask you this.
00:11:24.000 Is there anything in that definition of conservatism that couldn't be applied to a reasonable, rational, elegant elitist like Barack Obama, according to David Brooks?
00:11:32.000 Intellectual humility.
00:11:33.000 He says Obama has had a great decision-making process, really listened to other people.
00:11:38.000 He's a belief in steady, incremental change.
00:11:40.000 Well, that's Barack Obama.
00:11:41.000 He wants change.
00:11:42.000 A preference for reform rather than revolution.
00:11:44.000 Well, Obama's a reformist, according to David Brooks.
00:11:46.000 A respect for hierarchy, precedence, balance, and order.
00:11:49.000 Obama loves the Supreme Court.
00:11:50.000 He loves precedence.
00:11:52.000 And a tone of voice that is prudent and measured and responsible.
00:11:54.000 In other words, David Brooks' definition of conservatism has nothing to do with conservatism and everything to do with attitude.
00:12:01.000 So it's non-conservatism masquerading with attitude.
00:12:05.000 And there are a lot of people in the United States who are very dissatisfied with Obama, and they look at David Brooks saying that conservatism is really just about wearing a creased pair of khakis and sipping Chardonnay, and they say, well, F you, dude.
00:12:19.000 F you, and F the horse you rode in on.
00:12:22.000 F you, you're a P-word, you're full of ass, you know, F you.
00:12:27.000 And this is where Trump comes from, right?
00:12:29.000 This is where Trump comes from.
00:12:30.000 So you have a non-conservative version of conservatism, and the reaction is another non-conservative version of conservatism.
00:12:36.000 If David Brooks says, if conservatism is just elitist, go along to get along attitude, then the Trump people say, well, that's not conservatism.
00:12:45.000 The conservatism is being rough and ready and shouting and cursing and being rude and vulgar.
00:12:51.000 Now, as I've said, I have nothing against elitism, against Chardonnay.
00:12:56.000 I have nothing against wearing a nice pair of khakis.
00:12:58.000 I also have nothing against the occasional use of the F-word.
00:13:00.000 It doesn't really bother me too much, and I think that we've moved beyond that.
00:13:03.000 If the use of the F-word in American society is on your list of top 100 problems facing us, then you're misprioritizing.
00:13:09.000 I'm not teaching my child to curse by any stretch of the imagination, but I promise you that cursing, if my president curses, I really don't care.
00:13:18.000 It did not bother me one iota.
00:13:20.000 When Dick Cheney told, at one point, Harry Reid to go F himself.
00:13:23.000 That didn't bother me one iota.
00:13:25.000 And it really didn't bother me too much when Ralph Peters said that Obama was exactly the word that Donald Trump just used for Ted Cruz.
00:13:31.000 What does bother me is when the word itself, the use of the word itself, is seen as non-politically correct.
00:13:36.000 There's a difference between vulgarity and anti-political correctness.
00:13:39.000 There's a difference between vulgarity, a vulgar attitude, and conservatism.
00:13:42.000 There's a difference between elitism and conservatism.
00:13:45.000 David Brooks is not talking about conservatism.
00:13:47.000 And neither is Trump.
00:13:49.000 And what's more, when Trump says things like, you know, I'm gonna call Ted Cruz whatever I want, I'm not gonna be politically correct, the reason not to call Ted Cruz a pansy, but the word isn't pansy, the reason not to call him that is not because you're not being politically correct, the reason not to call him that is because it's not true.
00:14:07.000 Because what you're saying is not conservative.
00:14:09.000 I mean, the original riff here on Ted Cruz was Ted Cruz wasn't gung-ho enough in favor of waterboarding.
00:14:14.000 That's not even true.
00:14:16.000 If you watch that debate, what Ted Cruz said is that waterboarding is not torture and that if necessary, he would use it.
00:14:21.000 I'm not sure how that's a bad position.
00:14:23.000 But Trump and his supporters
00:14:26.000 They are responding to political correctness and gentility and civility so much that they're basically saying all of the things that they do now are anti-politically correct.
00:14:34.000 There's a difference between vulgarity and political correctness.
00:14:37.000 Or vulgarity and anti-political correctness.
00:14:39.000 There is a difference.
00:14:41.000 Just being reactionary about political correctness doesn't mean you have to be vulgar.
00:14:45.000 You know, I'm about as politically incorrect a fellow as is in American politics.
00:14:50.000 I'm the guy who tweets out on Trayvon Martin's birthday when the left is deifying him that Trayvon Martin wouldn't be dead if he hadn't beaten a man's head into the ground and gotten himself shot.
00:14:58.000 I'm the sort of fellow who goes on national television and refuses to bow to politically correct notions that men can magically become women.
00:15:05.000 I'm the fellow who actually crafts videos in which I go through the percentage of Muslims all around the world who believe in extremism.
00:15:12.000 So I've dedicated a huge majority of my life to fighting political correctness.
00:15:17.000 But saying the F word is not anti-political correctness.
00:15:20.000 Saying the P word isn't anti-political correctness.
00:15:23.000 Maybe it's good, maybe it's bad, but it has nothing to do with political correctness.
00:15:26.000 If that were the case, Amy Schumer, who curses regularly, curses a blue streak, uses the C word.
00:15:31.000 You know, Amy Schumer would be somebody who is anti-politically correct.
00:15:34.000 She's not.
00:15:34.000 She's the most politically correct broad on Earth.
00:15:37.000 Everything Amy Schumer does is politically correct.
00:15:39.000 But she curses.
00:15:40.000 So don't mix up the attitude with the philosophy.
00:15:45.000 These are not the same thing.
00:15:47.000 You can have preferences in terms of, I know rude conservatives and I know genteel conservatives.
00:15:51.000 I know rude liberals and I know genteel liberals.
00:15:53.000 The attitude is not the philosophy.
00:15:56.000 So this is true for David Brooks conservatives, and this includes people like my friend Michael Medved who objects to Trump on the grounds that he's vulgar.
00:16:02.000 The objection to Trump shouldn't chiefly be that he's vulgar.
00:16:04.000 The objection to Trump should be that he's not conservative and also that he's vulgar.
00:16:08.000 I don't like his brand of vulgarity.
00:16:10.000 I think his brand of vulgarity actually is anti-conservative.
00:16:13.000 See, for example, when Trump says the p-word, I don't like that being used just generally.
00:16:18.000 When Trump says that you should treat women like ass, that actually is anti-conservative because conservatism is a philosophy that says that women are to be treated with honor and respect.
00:16:28.000 But again, mistaking attitude for policy is something that has happened.
00:16:33.000 It started on the establishment right, and then in reaction, it's now moved over to the grassroots right, and that's actually a problem for conservatism, because conservatism actually means something more specific than either saying the F word or not saying the F word.
00:16:45.000 Okay, so back to New Hampshire.
00:16:48.000 Jeb Bush, representing this sort of genteel David Brooks perspective on conservatism, he says, Donald Trump needs therapy.
00:16:55.000 Here's Jeb Bush.
00:16:56.000 You just mentioned Donald Trump.
00:16:57.000 He made some disparaging comments about your mother.
00:17:00.000 Do you have a response to that?
00:17:02.000 He's got... He needs... He needs therapy.
00:17:05.000 I mean, seriously.
00:17:06.000 Attacking a 90-year-old woman?
00:17:09.000 Really?
00:17:09.000 Come on, Donald.
00:17:10.000 Raise the level of your game, man.
00:17:13.000 Raise the level of your game, man.
00:17:14.000 First of all, okay, attacking, I don't even know what Trump said about Barbara Bush, but once you drag somebody out on the campaign trail, my view is that they're fair game.
00:17:23.000 Once that person is campaigning for you openly, they're fair game and sort of the slings and arrow that you should expect.
00:17:29.000 Would I be upset if somebody attacked my mom?
00:17:31.000 Yeah.
00:17:31.000 Would I be upset if somebody attacked my wife?
00:17:33.000 Sure.
00:17:33.000 Do people do both all the time?
00:17:35.000 Yeah.
00:17:35.000 So, you know, welcome to politics.
00:17:38.000 Trump came back by saying that Jeb's a stiff.
00:17:40.000 And again, you'll notice that the battle between Trump and Jeb is not over policy.
00:17:43.000 There's nothing here about policy.
00:17:44.000 This is all about attitude.
00:17:46.000 If the battle of conservatism is one about attitude, conservatism loses.
00:17:49.000 So you've got Jeb saying that Trump needs therapy, he should be more genteel.
00:17:52.000 And here's Trump going back at Jeb saying Jeb's a stiff.
00:17:56.000 Mika asked people to do word association games and said your name, Chris Christie, said friend.
00:18:03.000 Right.
00:18:04.000 Jeb Bush went in an opposite direction.
00:18:07.000 He said loser.
00:18:08.000 What's your response?
00:18:09.000 Here's the story.
00:18:10.000 I mean, we gotta say it like it is.
00:18:12.000 He'll say that I said things that I never said.
00:18:16.000 I never called John McCain a loser.
00:18:18.000 You know that.
00:18:18.000 I like John McCain.
00:18:20.000 He's a nice guy.
00:18:21.000 I never called him a loser.
00:18:22.000 The other man I supposedly called a loser, I don't even know who he is.
00:18:26.000 I don't know who the man is.
00:18:27.000 Jeb is lifting things up.
00:18:28.000 There's a story on Jeb.
00:18:31.000 He's a stiff who you wouldn't hire in private enterprise, okay?
00:18:35.000 This is a stiff.
00:18:36.000 This is a guy that if he came looking for a job, you'd say, no, thank you.
00:18:40.000 And that's the way it is.
00:18:41.000 He used, just so you understand, he talks about eminent domain.
00:18:45.000 He doesn't even know what the words mean.
00:18:47.000 Eminent domain.
00:18:48.000 His family used eminent domain privately on a stadium in Texas.
00:18:51.000 It just came out this morning.
00:18:53.000 He forgot to tell you.
00:18:54.000 He probably didn't know because he's probably not that involved with his family.
00:18:57.000 In fact, he doesn't even use the last name Bush, which was in the state.
00:19:01.000 Okay, we can stop it there.
00:19:11.000 So this is just Trump being Trump.
00:19:13.000 First of all, Trump basically did call John McCain a loser.
00:19:16.000 I mean, that's not actually a lie.
00:19:18.000 You remember several months ago, he let off his campaign by talking about POWs and he said he prefers people who weren't captured.
00:19:25.000 Right, as you said about John McCain, because McCain doesn't like Trump, or at least didn't at the time.
00:19:29.000 But in any case, this is the whole point.
00:19:30.000 It's this attitude, right?
00:19:32.000 Jeb is, I'm genteel, I'm the adult in the room, and Trump is, no, I'm childish, and I'm going to punch you, and that's what I'm gonna do.
00:19:38.000 And you can hear the media love it, right?
00:19:40.000 MSNBC loves it.
00:19:42.000 Micah and Joe over there, they're cracking up at this, because all that's happening is that you've got kind of the blue-collar feel of Donald Trump, the F word and the P word, and then you got the upper-crust feel of Jeb Bush, and they're just battling it out over nothing.
00:19:54.000 Over nothing.
00:19:55.000 They're not battling it out over policy differences.
00:19:57.000 They're not battling it out over anything but pride and arrogance and the way that they feel that people should present themselves to the world.
00:20:05.000 I really don't care about the presentation.
00:20:07.000 I really don't.
00:20:07.000 I care significantly more about the policies that are reflected.
00:20:10.000 I don't oppose Trump because he uses vulgar language.
00:20:12.000 I oppose Trump because Trump is not a conservative and his vulgarity extends beyond just his language to thoughts and feelings and beliefs that are not conservative.
00:20:22.000 John Kasich is doing the same thing.
00:20:24.000 He goes out there and he's ripping Jeb Bush.
00:20:26.000 And again, notice folks, notice the pattern here.
00:20:28.000 In the Republican primary, it's all about attitude.
00:20:31.000 Almost none of this has to do with conservative policy.
00:20:34.000 So here's John Kasich getting attitudinal.
00:20:36.000 Here we go.
00:20:38.000 Do you regret your vote for the assault weapons ban in 94?
00:20:41.000 No, you know, going back and regretting.
00:20:43.000 I voted for assault weapons ban.
00:20:45.000 When you're governor for eight years, you got a record.
00:20:47.000 And here's mine.
00:20:48.000 I earned an A-plus rating from the NRA.
00:20:50.000 Florida's pro-gun laws have been the model for other states.
00:20:55.000 You worked to expand Medicaid.
00:20:57.000 You worked with President Obama.
00:20:58.000 To give President Obama bipartisan cover on Obamacare.
00:21:02.000 You're rancid.
00:21:03.000 Yeah.
00:21:03.000 One governor expanded Medicaid and the other did too.
00:21:05.000 Well, I think that was wrong.
00:21:08.000 Joining me now, Republican presidential candidate in Ohio, Governor John Kasich.
00:21:11.000 And there's a reason they're going after you, Governor, and that's because, at least in the latest Monmouth and ARG polls, you're in second place here in New Hampshire, which would be a remarkable finish for you in this state.
00:21:22.000 And so obviously they're gunning for you.
00:21:23.000 But are they on to something?
00:21:25.000 Because those are issues that upset the Republican base in some circumstances.
00:21:30.000 I'm really disappointed in Jeb.
00:21:33.000 Look, I mean, he's taken a very low road to the highest office in the land.
00:21:37.000 It's been negative all along, but that's okay.
00:21:39.000 You know, as Arnold Schwarzenegger told me when I was running for governor the first time, love the beatings.
00:21:45.000 And we've been positive really this, we've been positive this whole time.
00:21:49.000 And Megan, you couldn't believe what happened just about 45 minutes ago.
00:21:53.000 We had hundreds of people standing in a snowstorm with the Klieg lights in front of this, this old iconic country store.
00:22:02.000 Okay, so you can stop it there.
00:22:06.000 The bottom line is the same thing, right?
00:22:10.000 I'm hopeful, Jeb isn't.
00:22:12.000 Okay, can you name policy differences?
00:22:13.000 Everything that Jeb does in that ad about Kasich there.
00:22:17.000 If you haven't been watching the show for a while, folks, I'm not a Jeb Bush fan.
00:22:20.000 Everything Jeb says about Kasich there is exactly correct.
00:22:22.000 Kasich's response is he's mean.
00:22:24.000 Right?
00:22:24.000 He's taking the low road.
00:22:26.000 It's all about attitude.
00:22:27.000 It isn't about attitude.
00:22:28.000 Conservatism isn't about attitude.
00:22:30.000 John Kasich is not an acceptable candidate because he is not right-wing.
00:22:33.000 Jeb Bush is not an acceptable candidate because he is not right-wing.
00:22:36.000 Donald Trump is not an acceptable candidate because he is not right-wing.
00:22:39.000 Marco Rubio is on the borderline of acceptable because he is not right-wing on immigration.
00:22:44.000 And when we forget all of that and it just becomes about the various attitudes of the people who are involved, maybe that's the way politics is now.
00:22:50.000 Maybe that's just how it is, that we elect the nicest guy, the one who projects the best persona.
00:22:55.000 But the definition of conservatism cannot change in order to adjust for the people that we like.
00:23:01.000 I got mad when they did this with Mitt Romney in 2012.
00:23:04.000 I was mad when they did it with John McCain in 2008.
00:23:05.000 Campaign finance reform didn't become conservative just because John McCain was running.
00:23:09.000 Mitt Romney did not make Romneycare conservative.
00:23:12.000 John Kasich is not conservative because he is less mean than Jeb Bush, and Jeb Bush isn't more conservative because he's less mean than Donald Trump.
00:23:19.000 None of this has anything to do with the philosophy.
00:23:22.000 So tonight, Trump is going to win.
00:23:24.000 By every available metric, he's going to win, and he's going to win broad.
00:23:27.000 And he's got, I think, in the betting markets, an 87% to 9% lead over the next closest competitor.
00:23:33.000 So let's take a look at your new Republican frontrunner, because Trump going into South Carolina is leading in the polls there.
00:23:39.000 Here is Trump doing name IDs.
00:23:41.000 He's doing a word association game on MSNBC this morning.
00:23:45.000 And he goes after Hillary Clinton a little bit.
00:23:47.000 Here we go.
00:23:48.000 Jeb Bush.
00:23:49.000 Loser.
00:23:50.000 OK.
00:23:52.000 What a coincidence.
00:23:53.000 It's so funny, you should say that.
00:23:55.000 Marco Rubio.
00:24:00.000 Confused.
00:24:02.000 Ted Cruz.
00:24:06.000 I was going to say nasty.
00:24:07.000 He's not really nasty.
00:24:08.000 I mean, he's been very nice.
00:24:09.000 He only goes on and off.
00:24:12.000 I'll say nasty.
00:24:13.000 Nasty, okay.
00:24:14.000 Hillary Clinton.
00:24:19.000 She went to your wedding, right?
00:24:20.000 Yeah, she did.
00:24:20.000 She did.
00:24:21.000 She did.
00:24:23.000 In a certain way, evil.
00:24:25.000 In a certain way, evil.
00:24:26.000 Whoa.
00:24:27.000 Um... Uh... Bill Clinton.
00:24:33.000 Intelligent.
00:24:33.000 Okay, I'm gonna just stop there.
00:24:35.000 I'm good.
00:24:36.000 I'm good.
00:24:37.000 I'm interested in all the words that he edited out.
00:24:39.000 I know!
00:24:40.000 There was a lot of editing gears on there.
00:24:43.000 I never liked that stuff.
00:24:44.000 Oh, yes!
00:24:45.000 One more.
00:24:45.000 Donald Trump.
00:24:47.000 Brilliant.
00:24:51.000 Now, Putin said Trump is brilliant, right?
00:24:53.000 And the Republicans wanted me to disavow his statement.
00:24:57.000 He's a horrible person.
00:24:59.000 I said, I'm not going to disavow that statement.
00:25:01.000 Why would I ever disavow that statement?
00:25:03.000 No, I'm only being nice guy.
00:25:05.000 I would say nice person.
00:25:06.000 I'm a nice person.
00:25:07.000 Alright, Donald Trump.
00:25:09.000 A lot nicer than people think.
00:25:10.000 I don't know if Hillary Clinton would agree with that this morning, but Donald Trump, thank you so much for being with us.
00:25:15.000 Donald Trump, thank you.
00:25:24.000 Right, he calls Ted Cruz nasty and the entire place breaks up.
00:25:27.000 Oh, that's so funny, Donald.
00:25:28.000 You're such a, you're such a riot.
00:25:30.000 He calls Hillary Clinton evil.
00:25:32.000 Dead silence.
00:25:33.000 Oh, you've touched the queen.
00:25:34.000 You mustn't touch the queen.
00:25:36.000 So here's the thing about Trump.
00:25:38.000 He's media savvy.
00:25:39.000 He knows how the camera works.
00:25:40.000 And that's going to be an asset for him and the media loves it.
00:25:43.000 Okay, the media is going to prop him up all the way through the end of this process.
00:25:46.000 The media loves it.
00:25:47.000 They love it.
00:25:48.000 Now, if Donald Trump were actually president, would he know what he's doing?
00:25:53.000 I have no evidence of that yet.
00:25:54.000 Here's Donald Trump talking about how we don't win wars anymore, and then he talks about vomiting for some reason.
00:25:59.000 I don't really understand, but okay.
00:26:01.000 But we have to get back to rebuilding our country because you look at our airports, our roadways, our tunnels, our bridges.
00:26:06.000 67% of them are in trouble.
00:26:08.000 Have we wasted too much money over the past decade fighting wars?
00:26:11.000 Has that been one of the biggest problems?
00:26:13.000 Well, I'll tell you what.
00:26:14.000 I don't mind fighting, but you gotta win.
00:26:15.000 And number one, we don't win wars.
00:26:17.000 We just fight.
00:26:18.000 We just fight.
00:26:18.000 It's like a big...
00:26:20.000 Vomiting.
00:26:21.000 Just fine.
00:26:22.000 Fine.
00:26:24.000 We don't win anything.
00:26:25.000 I mean, if you're gonna fight, you win, and you get back to rebuilding the country.
00:26:28.000 We don't win.
00:26:29.000 It's really a terrible thing.
00:26:31.000 I mean, you know, our country used to win all the time.
00:26:34.000 We don't win at all anymore.
00:26:36.000 Okay, so you got Donald Trump saying that, and then let's move over to the other side of the aisle now.
00:26:40.000 So, against Donald Trump is if he were to win the nomination.
00:26:44.000 I don't think he will, by the way.
00:26:45.000 I think that this will end up in a brokered convention.
00:26:46.000 There are too many candidates, too many states, not enough delegates.
00:26:50.000 Move over to the other side of the aisle.
00:26:51.000 So Hillary Clinton is on the other side of the aisle, and Hillary is pulling out all the stops.
00:26:55.000 She's going to lose New Hampshire today.
00:26:56.000 And Hillary Clinton, she says that there's a double standard against her.
00:27:00.000 She's going to play victim all the way through the end of this process.
00:27:03.000 She's talking here with Rachel Maddow, who was just interviewed in Playboy magazine about having sex with college girls, but here's Rachel Maddow talking with Hillary Clinton about the double standard faced by females on a national television broadcast.
00:27:16.000 With the leading presidential candidate and the number one broadcaster at MSNBC, both women, talking about how victimized they are.
00:27:21.000 Here we go.
00:27:30.000 We're weary of the double standard.
00:27:32.000 Let's release what everybody has ever said.
00:27:34.000 There are a lot of people on both sides.
00:27:35.000 If we're going to start saying what you did when you were out of public office, when you were in the private sector, what you did, fair game.
00:27:42.000 Release it all.
00:27:43.000 I'm all for that.
00:27:44.000 You mean all presidential candidates?
00:27:45.000 Yeah, everybody.
00:27:46.000 Release everything.
00:27:47.000 But again, I'm being asked to do something for which there's no basis, just the attempt to cast suspicion.
00:27:54.000 So I said I would look into it.
00:27:55.000 We will look into it.
00:27:56.000 But, you know, what's good for the gander should be good for the goose.
00:28:00.000 So, you wouldn't do it unilaterally, but if everybody's going to do it, you would do it.
00:28:04.000 Well, this is my point.
00:28:05.000 I'm really not thinking about it until I get through New Hampshire, to be honest.
00:28:08.000 I want to get through tomorrow and then, you know, it's going to be very boring for people once it is done under whatever circumstances.
00:28:14.000 So, there's Hillary Clinton, absolutely charmless.
00:28:17.000 You've got Trump, who actually is good on camera, but Hillary's already pulling out all the stops.
00:28:21.000 To try and bully women into voting for her.
00:28:23.000 So Gloria Steinem is this feminist icon from the last century.
00:28:27.000 She's the one who said that a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.
00:28:31.000 Gloria Steinem, she was so angry at young women who are supporting Bernie Sanders that she drops this unbelievable line over the last 48 hours.
00:28:39.000 Here we go.
00:28:40.000 It's kind of not fair to measure most women by the standard of most men, because they're gonna get more activists as they grow older.
00:28:49.000 And when you're young, you're thinking, you know, where are the boys?
00:28:52.000 The boys are with Bernie, or, you know... Ooh.
00:28:56.000 Now, if I said that... No.
00:28:58.000 No, no, you can say it.
00:29:00.000 Yeah, they're for Bernie, because that's where the boys are.
00:29:01.000 No, no, but it's not... You'd swat me.
00:29:04.000 Come on.
00:29:05.000 And he's right.
00:29:06.000 He's right.
00:29:07.000 But it's amazing.
00:29:08.000 Gloria Stenum has made her entire career off of young women empowered, make decisions about their bodies and voting.
00:29:13.000 But the minute that they vote for somebody she doesn't like, then she says they're a bunch of idiots who only follow their estrogen to the nearest boy.
00:29:21.000 Kind of an amazing statement from Gloria Steinem, but this is how Hillary actually feels about other women.
00:29:25.000 Hillary doesn't like other women.
00:29:27.000 Gloria Steinem doesn't like other women.
00:29:28.000 They just don't like men.
00:29:29.000 There's a difference.
00:29:30.000 You can hate men and also not be that enamored of women.
00:29:33.000 Madeleine Albright was also trotted out, so we've got the entire old irrelevant ladies' brigade.
00:29:38.000 We've got Gloria Steinem.
00:29:39.000 We've got Hillary Clinton.
00:29:41.000 And we got Madeleine Albright, who hasn't been relevant since she gave a basketball to Kim Jong-il.
00:29:47.000 So here's Madeleine Albright saying that there's a special place in hell for women who don't vote for Hillary Clinton.
00:29:53.000 I mean, this is like an episode of The Cryptkeeper.
00:29:56.000 The Crypt opens up and out wanders Madeleine Albright.
00:29:58.000 She makes Hillary Clinton look about 40 years old here.
00:30:02.000 Here's Madeleine Albright.
00:30:03.000 And a lot of you younger women don't think you have to.
00:30:07.000 It's been done.
00:30:08.000 It's not done.
00:30:10.000 And you have to help.
00:30:11.000 Hillary Clinton will always be there for you.
00:30:15.000 And just remember, there's a special place in hell for women who don't help each other.
00:30:22.000 And Hillary with her crazed laugh and all these women cheering behind her.
00:30:25.000 Special place in hell for women who don't help each other.
00:30:27.000 Oh, you mean like rape victims that you help target?
00:30:30.000 Like those kind of women?
00:30:32.000 Like when a woman, when your husband rapes someone and then you threaten her?
00:30:35.000 Is there a special place in hell for you?
00:30:37.000 I also don't seem to remember Madeleine Albright saying that when Sarah Palin was under attack or Michelle Bachman.
00:30:42.000 Or for that matter, all the Christian women in the Middle East who are being murdered.
00:30:46.000 Or, for example, the family of the people who were killed in Benghazi and Hillary was lying to them.
00:30:51.000 I don't remember that.
00:30:52.000 It is truly amazing.
00:30:53.000 So, what this election is going to turn into, and you wonder why the media are so desperate to have Trump and they want Trump?
00:31:00.000 Yeah, Trump is a great copy.
00:31:01.000 One of the reasons the media want Trump is because they want to turn this into a referendum.
00:31:05.000 They've been building this narrative for five years, okay?
00:31:08.000 I've been here, I've been watching it, I've been pointing it out.
00:31:10.000 They've been building the war on women narrative ever since 2012.
00:31:13.000 And pushing this idea that there's a Republican war on women.
00:31:16.000 Republicans hate women.
00:31:17.000 And they've been building it specifically so that this horrible piece of human debris on the left side of my screen here, the one in the purple who looks like an eggplant,
00:31:29.000 Is that she can run for president in building this narrative that she is, is just, she shows how much women are under attack in the United States and she's playing that card over and over so is Madeleine Albright, so is Gloria Steinem, even if it means slapping young women into oblivion.
00:31:45.000 They want Trump because Trump has said such terrible things about women.
00:31:49.000 Trump polls the worst among women of any candidate in the Republican field and it is not close.
00:31:54.000 So, you know, that's the real reason they want Trump.
00:31:57.000 So, all that said, okay, let's do some things that I like and some things that I hate.
00:32:01.000 So, a thing that I like.
00:32:04.000 Okay, so the Truman Show is a very good movie with Jim Carrey.
00:32:07.000 If you haven't seen it, it's an older movie, but it's a lot of fun.
00:32:10.000 Would somebody like to talk a little bit about gender identification, for example?
00:32:36.000 Sure, um, I would say gender identification is whatever gender your soul or identity ties to.
00:32:42.000 No, good point.
00:32:44.000 How about you?
00:32:44.000 What do you identify as besides, uh, pretentious?
00:32:47.000 Um, who can tell me what a trigger warning is?
00:32:51.000 Um, well, a trigger warning is something that you put before, like, a video or an article or something that might be difficult for them to witness or to hear.
00:33:02.000 Got it.
00:33:02.000 Okay, let me do one.
00:33:05.000 Trigger warning.
00:33:08.000 In this video there will be the clear depiction of a dog pretending to be interested in what a college student is saying, while at the same time making plans to pleasure himself to her at a later time.
00:33:24.000 Is that good?
00:33:25.000 Thank you.
00:33:28.000 She's actually really insulted.
00:33:30.000 Would someone like to explain to me what mansplaining is?
00:33:35.000 Thank you.
00:33:35.000 Could you please vag-splain what mansplaining is?
00:33:39.000 Mansplaining is when a man says something that a woman says, like explaining it the same way but getting more credit for it.
00:33:45.000 I still don't get it.
00:33:46.000 Could somebody mansplain this to me?
00:33:50.000 There's a lot for you men to learn.
00:33:53.000 We have to learn how to address a female student in the proper way.
00:33:57.000 All right?
00:33:58.000 Can I help your leg?
00:33:59.000 No.
00:34:00.000 Just for a second.
00:34:01.000 Please understand, I know I look like a dog, but I identify as a Shingard.
00:34:05.000 I wanted to say your name.
00:34:11.000 I'm very bad with names.
00:34:13.000 I apologize.
00:34:14.000 Since I'm so bad with names, it'll really help me out if you guys wear some labels.
00:34:20.000 There we go.
00:34:22.000 Let's put that there.
00:34:28.000 Thank you.
00:34:32.000 This is what put UNH on the map a few years ago, talking about words that are outdated.
00:34:44.000 For example, poor person.
00:34:48.000 Outdated.
00:34:49.000 Now, instead of saying the word poor, you say person who lacks advantages that others have, low economic status related to a person's education, occupation, and income.
00:35:03.000 It's as simple as that.
00:35:06.000 Wouldn't you call that offensive at this point?
00:35:09.000 Freshman, I think it's actually on there.
00:35:10.000 You want to be called first-year students, yes?
00:35:13.000 Yeah.
00:35:14.000 First-year students.
00:35:15.000 And sophomore should be called, tried being a lesbian, didn't love it.
00:35:20.000 And I think junior year should be called, plan B pregnancy scare.
00:35:26.000 And senior year should be called, lesbian for good.
00:35:31.000 Instead of freshman orientation.
00:35:34.000 You call it first-year orientation?
00:35:37.000 Yeah, first-year orientation.
00:35:38.000 Oh, oh, oh, wait, wait, wait.
00:35:39.000 Did you just say first-year orientation?
00:35:43.000 Shouldn't you be saying first-year Asian-mentation?
00:35:57.000 I think that's a very offensive term, frat boys.
00:36:00.000 Instead of frat boys, how about rapist Americans?
00:36:07.000 Among all the candidates, which socialist 74-year-old Jew would you like to see elected president?
00:36:14.000 I want you to know, he is going to break up the banks.
00:36:16.000 I think we should break up the big banks.
00:36:18.000 Well then how are you going to access your parents' money?
00:36:22.000 How about like the roasts?
00:36:24.000 When you see Donald Trump or Charlie Sheen get made fun of?
00:36:28.000 You know, it's funny.
00:36:29.000 It's some good fun.
00:36:31.000 But I mean, it's not politically correct.
00:36:35.000 Here's what a politically correct roast would sound like.
00:36:38.000 I'm going to do the best I can, okay?
00:36:41.000 Your mom's so plus-sized that her blood type is Ragu.
00:36:45.000 And I only know that because the insurance industry did not sufficiently protect her privacy rights.
00:36:53.000 If the D.C.
00:36:54.000 police had their way, it could mess up one of our most beloved pastimes, talking dirty.
00:37:00.000 Who's your daddy?
00:37:02.000 Not acceptable, right?
00:37:03.000 But... Who's your non-gender-specific male authority figure?
00:37:10.000 Who's your non-gender-specific male authority figure?
00:37:13.000 You're a dirty little whore.
00:37:16.000 Makes you uncomfortable?
00:37:18.000 Okay, let me try this.
00:37:20.000 You're an unwashed diminutive victim of job alternative deprivation.
00:37:25.000 You unwashed diminutive victim of job alternative deprivation.
00:37:35.000 Okay.
00:37:35.000 Okay, that's enough of that.
00:37:37.000 But it shows how ridiculous this whole thing is.
00:37:39.000 And what's amazing is when you watch the faces of the students, even the students know how ridiculous this is, except for one girl who is wildly offended by everything that is being said.
00:37:49.000 So remember earlier I said that being vulgar isn't necessarily being liberal, right?
00:37:54.000 I said that, you know, David Brooks is wrong.
00:37:55.000 It can be both vulgar and conservative.
00:37:57.000 There's a lot of vulgarity in this video, but it's funny because the whole point is that all of the stuff the left is saying is stupid garbage.
00:38:03.000 And it is.
00:38:03.000 On campus, all the stuff the left is saying is stupid garbage.
00:38:06.000 Which brings me to things I hate.
00:38:07.000 Stuff the left is saying on campus that's stupid garbage.
00:38:09.000 So...
00:38:11.000 I'm going to a university of North Carolina, and I'm speaking there on March 30th.
00:38:15.000 Liberal groups are already planning to counter my ignorance, which will be interesting since they don't know anything.
00:38:20.000 So one student wrote, Some ignorant white people who go to my school have booked this ignorant white man, this would be me, so that a like-minded audience comprised of ignorant white people can reaffirm their ignorant beliefs.
00:38:32.000 The person should invest in a thesaurus, since he repeats the word ignorant too many times, so they're ignorant.
00:38:38.000 There's a Take Back the Night Club, which is this supposedly anti-rape group.
00:38:42.000 I'm the most anti-rape person that you will ever find, because I think that rapists should be shot or castrated, but the Take Back the Night Club is very upset.
00:38:49.000 Why?
00:38:50.000 Because, quote, Intersectionality leads to a uniquely marginalized experience for women of color within our patriarchal society.
00:38:57.000 That is what we like to call thought vomit right there.
00:39:00.000 I mean, that is, what does that even mean?
00:39:02.000 I'll claim ignorance.
00:39:04.000 I don't know what that means.
00:39:04.000 It sounds like garbage to me.
00:39:06.000 They said, Shapiro has a history of speaking against women's rights.
00:39:10.000 Really?
00:39:10.000 Like which ones?
00:39:11.000 You mean like, did I tell my wife who's about to go into medical residency?
00:39:15.000 Which rights have I deprived her of?
00:39:17.000 I mean, just I want a sandwich every so often.
00:39:19.000 It's not so much to ask, but I have a history of speaking against women's rights, LGBTQ rights,
00:39:25.000 Okay, if you think that you have a right to force me to cater your wedding, yeah, because you're depriving me of rights.
00:39:32.000 And racial justice.
00:39:33.000 Racial justice means that if you're a person who commits a crime and you're black, then you shouldn't go to jail because that would be racially unjust.
00:39:40.000 It might be just, but it would be racially unjust.
00:39:42.000 They say, stands up against people who make the world an uncomfortable, unwelcoming place for women, non-binary, and non-cis folks.
00:39:49.000 Cisgender means, like me, I'm a man who identifies as a man.
00:39:53.000 And, you know, like 99% of the rest of humanity, because I'm not a moron, or somebody who's mentally ill, those are the two options.
00:40:01.000 If you don't identify as the gender into which you were born, that's because you're either stupid or mentally ill.
00:40:08.000 There is no third option.
00:40:09.000 Okay, there's no third option where you are perfectly healthy, but you don't identify as the gender into which you were born.
00:40:15.000 It just doesn't work that way.
00:40:17.000 And people of color.
00:40:18.000 And by the way, I feel terrible for the people who are mentally ill.
00:40:20.000 I don't feel bad for the people who confuse themselves purposefully because they want to get on the victimology list at University of North Carolina.
00:40:28.000 See you there, gang.
00:40:29.000 Alright, so that'll be fun.
00:40:31.000 So that's something that I hate.
00:40:33.000 A couple of quick other things.
00:40:36.000 That I hate.
00:40:37.000 Hillary's exploiting the kiddies again every other day.
00:40:39.000 Like, there's an age range where Hillary really doesn't know what to do with children.
00:40:42.000 Before they're born, you kill them.
00:40:44.000 And once they're 18, then you pressure them into voting for women by calling them non-feminist.
00:40:49.000 But between the ages of birth and 18, you have no idea what to do with them, so you trot out ads like this one.
00:40:56.000 I can't vote yet.
00:40:57.000 I can't vote yet.
00:40:58.000 I can't vote yet.
00:40:59.000 You're voting for my future.
00:41:00.000 For my future.
00:41:01.000 For my future.
00:41:02.000 Let's make Hillary president.
00:41:04.000 Yes!
00:41:05.000 The world has no idea who Hillary Clinton is.
00:41:10.000 Go vote!
00:41:11.000 Go vote.
00:41:12.000 Vote please!
00:41:13.000 HRC!
00:41:13.000 2016!
00:41:13.000 HRC!
00:41:13.000 2016!
00:41:14.000 HRC!
00:41:14.000 2016!
00:41:16.000 Hey you!
00:41:16.000 Get off the couch and go vote!
00:41:19.000 I will not listen to you, small child.
00:41:21.000 Because you are not important to my life.
00:41:23.000 Thank you.
00:41:26.000 Yes, you can.
00:41:27.000 Thank you for that content-laden explanation of why I should hand the country over to an old bat socialist who's going to bankrupt it before you're even old enough to get a job.
00:41:35.000 Thank you for that small child whose parents forced you into this so that eventually you could get a bit part on a sitcom.
00:41:41.000 Really appreciate it.
00:41:42.000 Okay, other things that I hate.
00:41:43.000 Here's another Hillary ad.
00:41:44.000 She's bringing out the worst ads.
00:41:46.000 Here's another Hillary ad.
00:41:46.000 See if you can spot the problem with this particular Hillary Clinton ad.
00:41:49.000 Here we go.
00:41:51.000 I still remember the day you were born.
00:41:52.000 You came 10 days late.
00:41:54.000 You looked like you'd been in the bathtub for too long.
00:41:57.000 You were all wrinkled.
00:41:59.000 I remember holding you in my arms and I knew I could give you anything you needed.
00:42:06.000 We were going to love you, and be a family, and take care of you, and teach you all the wonderful things, and show you what this amazing world had to offer.
00:42:14.000 Hey Charlotte, look!
00:42:14.000 For the first time, I thought not just about my future, but about the future that you guys would come into.
00:42:21.000 So, I think about the kind of America I believe in.
00:42:26.000 I believe in an America where we can disagree without descending into vulgarity.
00:42:32.000 I believe in an America in which immigrants are welcomed.
00:42:34.000 Because they contribute to our country, just like my parents did.
00:42:38.000 Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:42:41.000 I believe in an America that makes environmentally responsible decisions so that one day, you and your kids can still enjoy playing in the snow as much as you do.
00:42:50.000 My mother taught me that everybody needs a chance and a champion.
00:42:56.000 I wish my mother could have been with us longer.
00:42:58.000 I wish she could have met Charlotte.
00:43:00.000 I wish she could have seen the America we're going to build together.
00:43:05.000 I believe in an America where you have the opportunity to a wonderful education because this country can afford to give you that.
00:43:13.000 I believe in an America that puts vets as a priority.
00:43:18.000 An America where we don't leave anyone out or anyone behind.
00:43:23.000 Get ready.
00:43:24.000 I believe in an America where backlaps matter.
00:43:28.000 And that where lives are diminished in any way, that we have an obligation as a country to make those people whole.
00:43:37.000 On America, where if you do your part, you reap the rewards.
00:43:43.000 I believe that people have to make a living wage.
00:43:47.000 I don't believe we need to support the 1%.
00:43:50.000 Is this possible in today's world?
00:43:53.000 I believe it is.
00:43:54.000 I believe in an America where you will be able to make decisions about your body because it belongs to you.
00:44:00.000 Okay, stop it right there.
00:44:01.000 You may have noticed that this entire stupid commercial is based around babies.
00:44:06.000 And then as they show a baby, they say, I dream of an America where you can kill your baby.
00:44:11.000 Right?
00:44:12.000 This is a stupid thing.
00:44:13.000 And this is the real hole in the Democratic agenda.
00:44:15.000 I mean, it is.
00:44:17.000 They show all these really, really cute kids, and they tell you that three months before this, you could have killed them.
00:44:22.000 It really is kind of gross.
00:44:23.000 So they literally show a baby on the screen at the same time they say that your body belongs to you.
00:44:27.000 In other words, this kid?
00:44:29.000 Just get rid of this sucker.
00:44:30.000 If this is not a convenient child for you, out this kid goes.
00:44:34.000 By the way, it's such sloganeering.
00:44:36.000 And I mentioned before, you know, the attitudinal differences between kind of the elite
00:44:41.000 Yeah, well, that makes no difference to me.
00:44:51.000 It turns out that most of the dictators in history had highfalutin tastes.
00:44:54.000 Most of them actually enjoyed a nice glass of wine in the evenings.
00:44:57.000 That didn't mean that they were better people.
00:45:00.000 Okay, final thing.
00:45:01.000 Final thing, I promise.
00:45:02.000 Okay, so...
00:45:04.000 South Africa?
00:45:25.000 The sun on the meadow is summery warm.
00:45:35.000 The stag in the forest runs free.
00:45:42.000 But gather together to greet the storm.
00:45:49.000 Tomorrow belongs to me.
00:45:55.000 Oh, oh wait, no, this may be the wrong video.
00:45:59.000 Sorry, oops, sorry about that.
00:46:01.000 No, it's actually, I think we have the actual video now.
00:46:04.000 Sorry, that was the wrong video, guys.
00:46:05.000 I mixed up one National Socialist with another National Socialist.
00:46:10.000 I'm sorry about that.
00:46:11.000 Here's the actual Bernie Sanders rally, and here's what the Feel the Bern song sounds like.
00:46:16.000 Different than the Syphilis song, but no one knows really why, so here we go.
00:46:24.000 We don't want a smooth talker, we only want what's right.
00:46:42.000 I like the homeless guy in the trench coat.
00:47:00.000 Looks like he just walked out of a pornography shop and now he's rocking back and forth and he's gonna go find a car somewhere.
00:47:06.000 Pleasure of his own.
00:47:11.000 Do you feel the burn?
00:47:11.000 Do you feel the love?
00:47:31.000 I don't know what's going on over here.
00:47:36.000 It's getting a little scary, so we're gonna stop it right there.
00:47:38.000 Okay, so that's the Feel the Burn song from the Bernie Sanders rally.
00:47:46.000 In American politics, where our attitude is the only thing that matters, where our attitude, whether it's elitist, or whether it's grassroots, or whether it's vulgar, or whether it's highfalutin, where that's the only thing that matters, where ideology has nothing to do with anything, is a politics that is bereft of any possibility of really helping people, of really allowing people the freedoms that we are guaranteed under the Constitution.
00:48:08.000 And it's easy to get caught up in all the media coverage of the Trump bombastic stuff, and the Jeb weakness, and the funny headline from The Onion today, Jeb loses New Hampshire, falls victim to a heroin crisis.
00:48:19.000 But it's easy to fall into the whole media game of following the persona of all the various candidates.
00:48:27.000 But the fact is that if you can't get past the persona, if you can't get past the hippy-dippy Bernie Sanders versus the grip it too tight, white knuckle it Hillary Clinton campaign,
00:48:37.000 If we can't get to what do these people believe and what are they going to do, then we really don't have a lot of hope for the future of the country.
00:48:42.000 If we can get beyond the optics and we can get to the substance, and that's your job and that's my job, then maybe, just maybe, we can get to a point where what happens to the country is more important than how we treat the candidates while it happens.
