7 Facts You Should Know About the Mythical Wage Gap. Today, because it's Equal Pay Day, here are 7 facts you should know about the mythical wage gap commemorated by this nonsensical and stupid day. 1. Women are not a minority. 2. Since the 1970s, women have been more likely to graduate high school than men. 3. Single, childless women in major cities earn actually more than men 4. Women don t bargain worse than men . 5. Women value flexibility in career and upward mobility. 6. Men work longer hours than women as well. 7. Women choose different jobs, take time off from work for a variety of reasons, work fewer hours, and make different life decisions on average. When you remove all the confounding factors, women earn just as much as men. But never mind, women must always be treated as victims. That's because victimhood equals virtue, and women have to be granted cherished minority victimhood status. And women must be granted the cherished "victimhood status" that everyone wants them to have 8. Women have higher education, better jobs, and better life choices. 9. Women work longer than men do not have to work 45 hours a week. 10. Women take a year off when they have a baby. 11. Women like drama. 12. Men value flexibility. 13. Women do not work longer. 15. Women make better decisions. 16. Women care about the kind of work they make. 17. Women want to work longer, so they don t have more time And so they can have more money and so on and so they are more flexible 18. Women also make a better life decisions 19. Women lead to lower-paying careers. 21. Women tend to choose higher-paying jobs 22. They choose less risky careers So it doesn t match up as much like men do more like men so it doesn't match up up to men like men like drama, right? And then you know, so it's better than men work more like women do not like drama? That doesn't even match up with men like that, do you get it? That s right, does it? You don't get it ? You don t work more than a guy who works 45 hours less than a woman works 45 more than women do?

00:00:00.000 Hey, good news, everybody.
00:00:01.000 Today is Equal Pay Day.
00:00:04.000 The left declared it Equal Pay Day because that's the day, apparently, that women must work until this year to earn what a man earned the previous year. 0.53
00:00:12.000 So what the left always says is that women earn 79 cents for every dollar earned by a man. 0.99
00:00:17.000 This neglects the fact that women choose different jobs, take time off from works for a variety of reasons, work fewer hours, make different life decisions on average. 0.99
00:00:25.000 Actually, when you remove all the confounding factors, women earn just as much as men. 0.99
00:00:29.000 In major cities, they actually earn more than men.
00:00:31.000 But never mind.
00:00:32.000 Women must always be treated as victims. 1.00
00:00:35.000 That's because victimhood equals virtue.
00:00:38.000 And women have to be granted cherished minority victimhood status. 0.99
00:00:41.000 So, 0.99
00:00:42.000 Today, because it's Equal Pay Day, here are seven facts you should know about the mythical wage gap commemorated by this nonsensical and stupid Equal Pay Day. 0.99
00:00:51.000 First, women. 0.99
00:00:52.000 Not a minority.
00:00:53.000 It should be obvious.
00:00:54.000 Women not only constitute a slight majority of Americans, they constitute a really, really heavy majority of voters. 1.00
00:01:00.000 In every single presidential election since 1980, female voters have exceeded male voters.
00:01:05.000 In 2012, 53% of voters were women, and they voted in significant margins for President Obama.
00:01:11.000 So thanks for that, ladies. 1.00
00:01:12.000 Appreciate it.
00:01:13.000 Second, women, not a minority of college students. 0.51
00:01:16.000 Since the 1970s, women have been more likely to graduate high school than men.
00:01:20.000 As Jeff Guo of the Washington Post reports, since the 1980s, women have graduated from college at higher rates than men.
00:01:27.000 Guo says, quote,
00:01:31.000 Doesn't matter what kind, associate, bachelor's, master's, doctoral, women beat men in every category. 1.00
00:01:37.000 In 2009-2010, women earned 57.4% of all bachelor's degrees.
00:01:38.000 Women hold 58% of graduate school degrees as well. 0.93
00:01:47.000 Okay, third, single, childless women in major cities earn actually more than men. 0.88
00:01:51.000 So according to James Chung of Reach Advisors, he analyzed the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, and he found that single, childless women earn more than their male counterparts of the same age in major cities across the United States.
00:02:03.000 Here's what Time Magazine had to say, quote,
00:02:06.000 According to a new analysis of 2,000 communities by a market research firm, in 147 out of 150 of the biggest cities in the United States, the median full-time salaries of young women are 8% higher than those of the guys in their peer group.
00:02:21.000 In two cities, Atlanta and Memphis, women are making 20% more. 0.99
00:02:24.000 This squares with earlier research from Queens College in New York.
00:02:28.000 They had suggested that this was happening in major metropolises, but the new study suggests the gap is actually bigger than they had previously thought.
00:02:36.000 Young women in New York, LA, San Diego, they're making 17%, 12%, and 15% more.
00:02:41.000 Four.
00:02:41.000 Women don't bargain worse than men.
00:02:43.000 So what you usually hear is that women are just bad at bargaining. 1.00
00:02:45.000 Men are much more aggressive.
00:02:46.000 Women are shyer because of ingrained sexism. 1.00
00:03:01.000 That's nonsense.
00:03:01.000 According to Harvard economics professor Claudia Golden, studies show that men and women earn the same amount right out of college.
00:03:07.000 If men were better at bargaining, that discrepancy would show up immediately. 0.88
00:03:12.000 Women also make different life decisions. 1.00
00:03:14.000 And my wife is a doctor.
00:03:15.000 She formally graduates from UCLA Medical School in June.
00:03:19.000 She also took a year off when we had our first baby.
00:03:22.000 That means that her earning was delayed by a full year.
00:03:25.000 I, by contrast, took off a grand total of four days.
00:03:28.000 That's not atypical.
00:03:29.000 Golden says, quote, we see large differences in where men and women are in their job titles and a lot that occurs a year or two after a kid is born.
00:03:36.000 It occurs for women and not for men.
00:03:39.000 Men also work longer hours.
00:03:40.000 Women value flexibility in career. 1.00
00:03:42.000 Men value the kind of money they make, upward mobility.
00:03:45.000 Men work longer hours than women as well.
00:03:47.000 Sarah Ketterer of the Wall Street Journal, she says, quote,
00:03:55.000 This raises an obvious problem.
00:03:56.000 A simple side-by-side comparison of all men and women includes people who work 35 hours and people who work 45 hours.
00:04:02.000 Men are significantly more likely than women to work longer hours, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
00:04:07.000 If we compare only people who work 40 hours a week, BLS data show that women then earn 90 cents for every dollar earned by men. 0.70
00:04:14.000 And again, that data doesn't include how many more worked 45 hours as men than worked 45 hours as women.
00:04:21.000 Right, so it simply doesn't match up.
00:04:25.000 And then, you know, so that's, finally, finally, men choose different professions.
00:04:30.000 They just, we choose more risky professions.
00:04:32.000 Ketterer says research in 2013 by Anthony Carnival, who's a Georgetown University economist, shows women flock to college majors that lead to lower paying careers.
00:04:41.000 Of the ten lowest-paying majors, like Drama and Theater Arts and Counseling Psychology, only one, Theology and Religious Vocations, is majority male.
00:04:48.000 Conversely, of the ten highest-paying majors, Math and Computer Science, Petroleum Engineering, only one, Pharmacy Sciences and Administration, is majority female.
00:04:57.000 Eight of the remaining nine are more than 70% male.
00:05:01.000 So, equal payday for women? 1.00
00:05:03.000 It's every single day that women make the exact same choices as men. 0.99
00:05:06.000 They just don't do that, really.
00:05:08.000 The choices women currently make, they're not qualitatively better or worse than men's necessarily, but they do have some consequences. 0.51
00:05:14.000 If you pretend that different decisions don't have disparate consequences,
00:05:18.000 Then you're a member of the left.
00:05:20.000 They believe that equal results have to be guaranteed regardless of personal choice.
00:05:24.000 But wishes do not shape reality.
00:05:26.000 And if you quash Americans' business freedom, if you call in the government based on mythology, that's both counterproductive and immoral.
00:05:33.000 I'm Ben Shapiro.
00:05:34.000 This is The Ben Shapiro Show.
00:05:42.000 All righty, so we have a lot to get to today.
00:05:44.000 It's been a very busy news day, and everything from Hillary Clinton telling racist jokes to Waka Flocka Flame speaking about the 1994 crime bill.
00:05:53.000 So we've got it all for you.
00:05:54.000 I don't even know who that person is.
00:05:55.000 I mean, do you guys know who that is?
00:05:56.000 Waka Flocka Flame?
00:05:58.000 I don't know who it is either, but apparently he's famous.
00:06:00.000 I mean, he's on our sheet of sound, so we'll get to all of that.
00:06:03.000 But first, we have to say hello to our friends over at Hillsdale College.
00:06:06.000 If you have been looking at President Obama in horror,
00:06:09.000 If you look around and you say to yourself, why is it that this guy thinks that legislative and judicial and executive power are all united under the banner of the executive branch, then you know that most of our leaders don't understand what the presidency is for.
00:06:22.000 It's one role in a vast government that has checks and balances.
00:06:26.000 But if you don't know enough about that, if you really want to know how the government was supposed to work, what the presidency was supposed to do,
00:06:32.000 Why the president is not a king or a dictator.
00:06:34.000 Why electing Hillary Clinton is not electing your mom and Donald Trump is not your dad.
00:06:38.000 If you need to know about that, Hillsdale College has a brand new course.
00:06:41.000 The course is called Presidency and the Constitution.
00:06:43.000 It's hillsdale.edu slash ben.
00:06:46.000 You get a lesson free every week right in your inbox and it's for free again.
00:06:50.000 And Hillsdale is the best.
00:06:52.000 I mean, they are the best at this.
00:06:53.000 They educate you in ways no one else will.
00:06:55.000 It's a great place to send your kid for college, but it's great for you, too, because they are dedicated to educating Americans beyond their college years.
00:07:02.000 This is not how the Framers designed it, and it's important to understand what the Framers meant.
00:07:06.000 If you actually want to fight for the Constitution.
00:07:08.000 So, go to hillsdale.edu slash ben.
00:07:11.000 They have new courses coming out all the time.
00:07:13.000 And this one promises to be really great.
00:07:15.000 Presidency and the Constitution at hillsdale.edu slash ben.
00:07:19.000 Okay, so.
00:07:20.000 Today, I want to start by talking a little bit about the fact that the media are going to make sure that Hillary is the President of the United States. 1.00
00:07:29.000 This is their open goal.
00:07:31.000 A lot of people say, well, Donald Trump will be great because Trump will slap the media.
00:07:35.000 He will slap the media, but the media have not begun to open up on him.
00:07:38.000 And the proof, the case in point of this, a couple of examples today. 0.91
00:07:42.000 So, Hillary and Bill de Blasio, the communist moron mayor of New York, they were on stage together in New York, and they were on stage with, I guess, the star of Hamilton, the musical, which is, last I checked, an all-black musical about Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, which is, you know, fine, whatever, it's not historically correct, but okay. 0.80
00:08:02.000 But in any case, they have the guy on stage, and so Bill de Blasio and Hillary Clinton are doing a comedy bit. 0.93
00:08:08.000 Now, if this sounds sort of like death warmed over, you're overestimating it by about 200%.
00:08:14.000 Like, the comedic stylings of Bill de Blasio and Hillary Clinton
00:08:18.000 That's almost the seventh circle of hell.
00:08:20.000 It's like six and a half circles of hell.
00:08:23.000 And here is what it looked like, and you'll see.
00:08:25.000 This is what Democrats do.
00:08:26.000 They're real awkward.
00:08:28.000 They're real awkward because they ain't funny, and they're bound by their own social justice convention.
00:08:32.000 So here's what it looked like.
00:08:34.000 Yes, on Saturday, Clinton and New York Mayor Bill de Blasio participated in a comedy show for charity.
00:08:40.000 Take a look.
00:08:41.000 Thanks for the endorsement, Bill.
00:08:44.000 Took you long enough. 1.00
00:08:45.000 Oh, shit! 1.00
00:08:48.000 Sorry, Hillary. 1.00
00:08:50.000 I was running on CP time.
00:08:54.000 That's not... I don't... I don't like jokes like that, Bill.
00:08:56.000 That's not... Cautious politician time.
00:09:03.000 Oh my God.
00:09:04.000 That's right.
00:09:05.000 They were making a joke about CP time or colored people time.
00:09:09.000 Did I just say that?
00:09:10.000 I did.
00:09:11.000 Referring to the black stereotype that black people are always late, which I don't think they are.
00:09:16.000 I've never heard that stereotype.
00:09:18.000 Okay, so there's Hillary Clinton joking with Bill de Blasio about CP time, colored people time. 0.77
00:09:23.000 I really look forward to their joint comedy tour in which they discuss how black people act at the movies.
00:09:28.000 That'll be really solid, I think.
00:09:29.000 So they do this, right?
00:09:31.000 And let's just put the shoe on the other foot for one single solitary moment.
00:09:35.000 Imagine for one second that Ted Cruz told a joke about CP time, even though he is technically a brown human, right? 0.85
00:09:41.000 He has Cuban ancestry.
00:09:43.000 Let's say that he told a joke about colored people time. 0.86
00:09:47.000 End of the world.
00:09:48.000 If Mitt Romney tells that joke, end of the world, right? 0.57
00:09:50.000 Everybody goes nuts. 0.97
00:09:51.000 And Hillary's standing there in her Chairman Mao yellow outfit, just talking with Bill de Blasio, and Bill de Blasio spits this out like it's no big deal, and he's allowed to do it because his wife is black, I guess, but... 1.00
00:10:03.000 Those rules have always been very stupid to me. 0.99
00:10:04.000 Like, I don't understand, why are you allowed to tell the joke if your wife's black? 1.00
00:10:07.000 So the idea is if you're having sex with a black chick, then you're allowed to make racial jokes now? 1.00
00:10:11.000 It's weird. 0.99
00:10:11.000 But in any case, they tell this joke, media ignores it, no big deal. 0.99
00:10:15.000 The headline from the media, really, the headline from the media was, they told race-laced joke.
00:10:20.000 Race-laced joke.
00:10:21.000 So, it's only race-laced, or race-weighted, or race-involved joke.
00:10:26.000 When a Democrat does it, a Republican says the exact same thing.
00:10:29.000 End of the world. 1.00
00:10:30.000 Racist, racist, horrible racist. 1.00
00:10:32.000 You can't say that. 1.00
00:10:34.000 It's racist for me to say things like the black crime rate is higher than the white crime rate.
00:10:37.000 That's racist, apparently, according to the left. 0.95
00:10:39.000 But it's not racist if Hillary Clinton outright says black people are always late to things because they're black. 0.96
00:10:46.000 Right? 0.89
00:10:46.000 Which is what Bill de Blasio is joking about there. 0.89
00:10:48.000 No big deal.
00:10:49.000 What instead was the left focused on?
00:10:50.000 The left was focused on this conversation between Bill O'Reilly and Donald Trump.
00:10:54.000 They traded each other milkshakes and then had this conversation with each other last night on Fox News about how Trump will overcome perceptions of racism.
00:11:01.000 And this made some headlines.
00:11:03.000 Smiley brought in the fact that that you were this racial arsonist.
00:11:07.000 That's what he used.
00:11:09.000 And I said, hey, look, I've known the guy for 30 years and I've never seen any of that.
00:11:13.000 And you got to give me an example.
00:11:14.000 And he really couldn't.
00:11:16.000 But that's the perception in the African-American precincts, that you're a racial guy, you don't like them.
00:11:22.000 Is there a strategy that you have, or your staff has, to negate that?
00:11:28.000 Well, I don't think it is the perception, actually, Bill.
00:11:31.000 I have tremendous numbers of African-Americans that work for me.
00:11:35.000 I'm going to bring jobs back to the country. 0.98
00:11:38.000 I don't think it's the perception at all.
00:11:40.000 I just don't.
00:11:40.000 I think we're going to do fantastic with African-Americans and with Hispanics.
00:11:43.000 What's your message to them?
00:11:45.000 What's your message to African-Americans?
00:11:46.000 My message is I'm going to bring... Okay, so his message is that he's going to bring everything back.
00:11:50.000 Bill O'Reilly from here went on to talk about black people in the inner city having tattoos on their forehead and such.
00:11:56.000 And he got in all sorts of hot water for doing that.
00:11:59.000 Okay, but it's Bill O'Reilly, so why is that making more headlines than Hillary Clinton participating in openly racist jokes?
00:12:05.000 Why is that more of a headline?
00:12:06.000 Like, Bill O'Reilly's an opinion host.
00:12:08.000 It doesn't wash, but this is what the media are going to do.
00:12:11.000 And another example of the double standard for the media is this.
00:12:13.000 So, I have put heavy scrutiny, and I think the media have, and rightly so, on the fact that Donald Trump has seemed to pander to the alt-right and to a certain group of white nationalists, the David Duke types.
00:12:24.000 And one of the things that he says when he's not pandering to the openly racist group is he says things that lead people to believe he's specifically trying to play to a blue-collar white base, right?
00:12:37.000 Disenfranchised white voters in manufacturing areas that have gone dark in the Midwest and the Northeast, right?
00:12:45.000 Those are going to be his people. 0.98
00:12:47.000 And people have criticized this.
00:12:48.000 They said he's making racial appeals to those folks.
00:12:51.000 I agree that identity politics is nasty.
00:12:53.000 When Donald Trump plays the identity politics card with white voters, or at least he goes soft on the alt-right, I don't like it.
00:12:59.000 I don't like it. 0.70
00:13:00.000 Hillary Clinton is way worse than Trump. 1.00
00:13:02.000 Way worse than Trump. 0.70
00:13:03.000 And obviously I've been very critical of Trump.
00:13:05.000 So that's saying a lot.
00:13:05.000 Hillary Clinton is significantly worse than Trump when it comes to the race baiting.
00:13:10.000 So yesterday we discussed at length the fact that Hillary Clinton
00:13:13.000 She has promoted all of these false ideas about how exactly race works in the United States.
00:13:19.000 She threw her husband under the bus on his crime reform bill from the 1990s.
00:13:24.000 She just threw him right under the bus. 0.97
00:13:26.000 No big deal for her.
00:13:27.000 She just acts like that's no big deal.
00:13:29.000 And that's really damaging.
00:13:31.000 That's really damaging.
00:13:31.000 The only reason she did it is for racist reasons.
00:13:34.000 She is trying to appeal to a black audience by saying she's going to give them stuff.
00:13:38.000 So here's the headline today in The Hill, after she catered to the black audience by throwing her husband's legacy under the bus. 1.00
00:13:45.000 Here is the headline from The Hill, quote, Black leaders expect Clinton to deliver.
00:13:50.000 Black leaders expect Clinton to deliver. 0.94
00:13:52.000 Okay, again, let's play the shoe-on-the-other-foot game here.
00:13:55.000 Let's imagine there was a headline and it said, White leaders expect Trump to deliver.
00:13:59.000 White leaders expect Trump to deliver.
00:14:01.000 Wouldn't that set off just a few alarm bells?
00:14:03.000 Wouldn't you think to yourself, well wait a second, why is racial solidarity part of a presidential campaign?
00:14:07.000 Why are races now campaigning for special help?
00:14:11.000 I wasn't aware that melanin level in skin was correlated with your politics.
00:14:14.000 It seems to me that it shouldn't be correlated really with anything.
00:14:18.000 It seems the values should be correlated with values.
00:14:20.000 But this is considered natural on the left.
00:14:23.000 So for Trump to be a race baiter on the right, that's out of bounds.
00:14:26.000 And I agree it's out of bounds.
00:14:27.000 But if you do the same thing on the left, then all of a sudden it's considered totally okay.
00:14:32.000 So the Hill ran all of these quotes from various black legislators saying things like this.
00:14:35.000 Here's Emanuel Cleaver from Missouri.
00:14:38.000 He said he wants Hillary to sign anti-poverty measures.
00:14:41.000 He says she has said she will support that strongly, and we think we'll have a strong chance of getting that through.
00:14:47.000 He said Hillary embraced it quickly, which is extremely important to us.
00:14:50.000 He said no one is going to be hesitant to be candid.
00:14:53.000 She's trying to win the primary election. 1.00
00:14:55.000 This may not be a good time for one particular group to demand things.
00:14:58.000 Al C. Hastings of Florida said he wanted Hillary to fix inadequate jobs, inadequate housing, inadequate education among blacks. 1.00
00:15:04.000 He said, I believe she gets it.
00:15:05.000 I think she would spend some time in the communities.
00:15:08.000 In other words, Hillary stands up for black folks. 1.00
00:15:10.000 And that is the reason, by the way, why Hillary gets away with racist jokes. 1.00
00:15:14.000 It's okay. 0.98
00:15:15.000 She's allowed to get away with racist jokes because she's catering to the black folks. 1.00
00:15:19.000 She's catering to black people. 1.00
00:15:20.000 Now again, if you reverse the races, you see how racist and horrifying this is. 0.99
00:15:25.000 But to the left, 0.99
00:15:26.000 Black people are incapable of racism and it's not racism to cater to blacks above other racial groups. 0.99
00:15:31.000 This is why Barack Obama is just diverse. 0.99
00:15:33.000 He's not a racist.
00:15:34.000 Even though Barack Obama's administration has been overtly racist.
00:15:37.000 And it is overtly racist to send the DOJ to crack down on police departments with no evidence of discrimination in the name of helping out specifically black communities. 0.58
00:15:46.000 That's racist.
00:15:47.000 And it's a serious problem.
00:15:49.000 So, Hillary does all this, and again, the reason that Hillary is getting away with all of this, the racist jokes and the fact that she can't speak two sentences without her programming going on the fritz, and the reason she gets away with this is because she says all the right thing according to the racist left. 0.99
00:16:05.000 Dude, to kind of put the capper on this, to put the capper on this, Waka Flocka Flame has now spoken out.
00:16:12.000 I assume this is his given name.
00:16:13.000 I assume that his last name was Flame.
00:16:14.000 He came out and his mother was like, Ah, I shall call you Waka Flocka. 1.00
00:16:18.000 This shall be your name.
00:16:19.000 For the rest of your life, all who see you shall call you Waka Flocka. 0.72
00:16:23.000 Apparently he's a rapper.
00:16:25.000 And he appeared with Larry Wilmore on the nightly show with Larry Wilmore on Comedy Central.
00:16:29.000 Larry Wilmore is technically the second least funny person on earth after Trevor Noah.
00:16:33.000 And Waka Flocka Flame, that noted authority on racial matters and crime, he says, you'll see what he has to say about crime, and then you'll see why Hillary Clinton, again, is getting away with overtly racist appeals.
00:16:48.000 I think Bill's choice is more complex than what he thought it was gonna be.
00:16:51.000 It was more long-term.
00:16:52.000 It affected people.
00:16:53.000 I think it probably made sense for the time.
00:16:56.000 You're talking about the actual crime?
00:16:59.000 I think laws is for time.
00:17:01.000 Now, is that law effective now?
00:17:03.000 No.
00:17:03.000 It hurts.
00:17:04.000 We've seen what happened through the years of time, but it's way more complex.
00:17:07.000 Yeah.
00:17:08.000 You think it was a mad man?
00:17:09.000 Oh, you mean angry, right?
00:17:09.000 Yeah.
00:17:09.000 Yeah.
00:17:31.000 Okay, so Waka Flocka Flame, obviously, he says that Bills is time-bound.
00:17:38.000 Laws is time-bound.
00:17:39.000 Grammar, apparently, is also time-bound.
00:17:41.000 But in any case, there he is saying that what Bill did a long time ago, that's what he did a long time ago.
00:17:46.000 Now Hillary's basically disassociating from Bill, so it's totally fine. 0.99
00:17:50.000 As long as she keeps pandering to us, it is totally fine.
00:17:53.000 It's totally fine.
00:17:54.000 It's totally fine.
00:17:55.000 So, unfortunately,
00:17:57.000 This is how modern American politics operates, and this is one of the reasons why the alt-right has risen on the right.
00:18:04.000 It's a direct response.
00:18:08.000 It's a regression to racism on the part of some people on the right.
00:18:11.000 They're looking at Barack Obama's administration, they're looking at Hillary, they're looking at Bill, and they're saying, you guys get to be racist against white people.
00:18:17.000 Why can't we be racist against black people? 1.00
00:18:20.000 And the argument itself is flawed because the premise is that they get to be racist against white people.
00:18:25.000 They don't.
00:18:26.000 Right?
00:18:26.000 We should be saying nobody gets to be racist against anybody.
00:18:29.000 But you can at least see the logic.
00:18:31.000 You can at least see the logic, which is, okay, if you're race-baiting against white folks, why can't we stand up for white folks?
00:18:36.000 And by the way, this is how the alt-right talks.
00:18:37.000 This is how the people who...
00:18:39.000 Back Trump on the extreme racist right.
00:18:41.000 This is how they speak.
00:18:42.000 They say, you know, we want, this is what David Duke says.
00:18:44.000 He says, you know, black people should have their priorities and white people should have their priorities and we should have our space and they should have their space, right?
00:18:50.000 This is what segregation was supposed to be about. 0.87
00:18:53.000 It's nasty when it comes from the left.
00:18:55.000 It's nasty when it comes from the reactionary right as well.
00:18:58.000 But Hillary is actually worse than Trump about this because Hillary's just open. 1.00
00:19:01.000 Hillary just puts it right out there. 1.00
00:19:02.000 Yep, I'm going to do racist crap now and it's going to appeal to the black community. 1.00
00:19:06.000 Trump at least tries to hide it occasionally. 0.99
00:19:09.000 So Hillary's racism is actually worse than Trump's racism because the left's racism is actually more overt than the racism of a lot of the folks on the far right in politics like Trump.
00:19:20.000 He's not really on the far right in any other respect, but he's a reactionary on this stuff.
00:19:24.000 Meanwhile...
00:19:26.000 More fallout in Colorado, serious fallout in Colorado. 0.98
00:19:30.000 Donald Trump continues to complain that everything is going wrong for him, that his very good brain has failed him, his very good people have failed him, everybody is screwing him.
00:19:40.000 Reince Priebus, he's the head of the RNC and has to have the worst job in politics at this point.
00:19:44.000 I mean, if you're Reince Priebus, you did not see this coming.
00:19:48.000 Sitting there on the train tracks playing with the coins and and tossing rocks and next thing you know you look up and the Trump train is right upon you and That's basically what happened to Reince Priebus, and he looks in these in these tapes I mean he looks in all of his video of Reince Priebus.
00:20:03.000 He looks shell-shocked He looks like he has been hit by a large vehicle moving at high speed
00:20:08.000 Here's Reince Priebus talking about how Donald Trump's complaining that the rules in Colorado were fixed against him.
00:20:14.000 Here's Reince Priebus saying, well, wait a second, this is always how things have been done in Colorado.
00:20:19.000 Well, I mean, it's the same process they used, Greta, four years ago.
00:20:23.000 I mean, it's no different.
00:20:24.000 Some states use a primary system to bind delegates.
00:20:28.000 Some states use a caucus system to bind delegates.
00:20:31.000 And some states use a convention system to bind delegates.
00:20:35.000 So, I have a book in front of me that every candidate has, state by state, with the dates and what's happening.
00:20:42.000 And according to that process, a delegate has a contest in the precincts.
00:20:49.000 Back a month ago.
00:20:50.000 Then the delegates that win that go and have a contest in the counties.
00:20:54.000 Then the delegates that win that have a contest at the congressional district.
00:20:59.000 And then the delegates that win that go to a state convention.
00:21:03.000 And so this isn't something that just happens over one day.
00:21:06.000 This is an organizational process that candidates have to be involved with from the very beginning.
00:21:13.000 And so
00:21:14.000 It's no different than Wyoming over the weekend picked Bernie Sanders at a convention.
00:21:19.000 It's the same thing that happened four years ago.
00:21:22.000 And he's right, of course, but he looks like he's trying to explain logic to a chicken.
00:21:28.000 He's trying to explain logic to Donald Trump, and Trump has no interest in logic.
00:21:32.000 His response, which we'll get to in just a minute, Trump's response is much more telling than Priebus's.
00:21:37.000 Priebus is sitting there going, what the hell?
00:21:39.000 These rules were set a year ago.
00:21:40.000 You knew about this.
00:21:41.000 What are you talking about?
00:21:42.000 And Trump's sitting there going, I don't care.
00:21:44.000 What rules?
00:21:45.000 What rules?
00:21:45.000 When have rules ever applied here?
00:21:47.000 I mean, Trump is just Darth Vader and the Empire Strikes Back.
00:21:51.000 In this case, Reince Priebus is Lando Calrissian.
00:21:54.000 And this deal just keeps getting worse all the time.
00:21:57.000 And Trump just says, pray I don't alter it further.
00:22:00.000 That's basically how this is going right now.
00:22:03.000 Okay, so, really quickly, Reagan.com is where you need to go.
00:22:07.000 If you are somebody who worries about your privacy, if you're concerned about the government snooping into your emails, which you should be, if you're concerned about corporations getting a hold,
00:22:15.000 We're good.
00:22:37.000 With the greatest president of the 20th century, so that's pretty cool.
00:22:40.000 And you get to show off to all your friends, particularly your lefty friends.
00:22:44.000 ReaganPrivacy.com, if you go right now, then you get two months for free on that email service, and it is really a really solid deal.
00:22:50.000 Okay, so, Reince Priebus says, Donald, I don't know what you're complaining about.
00:22:54.000 I don't understand why you're so upset.
00:22:56.000 I don't get it.
00:22:58.000 And Donald reacts as Donald always does.
00:23:00.000 He says, the fix is in!
00:23:02.000 The fix is in!
00:23:03.000 I'm being gypped.
00:23:04.000 I am being destroyed.
00:23:05.000 They're just schlonging me.
00:23:07.000 They're taking away what I have rightly earned.
00:23:10.000 And the entitlement complex is strong in this one.
00:23:13.000 And here is Donald Trump explaining that the entire system has been rigged against him.
00:23:16.000 It's been completely fixed.
00:23:18.000 So we have a rigged system.
00:23:20.000 So in Colorado, they were going to vote.
00:23:23.000 And you saw what's happening in Colorado.
00:23:24.000 It's one of the big things.
00:23:26.000 It's a fix!
00:23:28.000 Because we thought we were having an election and a number of months ago they decided to do it by... You know what?
00:23:37.000 Right?
00:23:38.000 Right?
00:23:38.000 You know what?
00:23:39.000 They said we'll do it by delegate.
00:23:42.000 He said they're going to do it by delegate.
00:23:44.000 Oh, isn't that nice?
00:23:45.000 And the delegates were all there, all waiting.
00:23:48.000 And the head guy, in fact, one of them tweeted out today or said today by mistake, and then they withdrew it.
00:23:55.000 Something to the effect.
00:23:56.000 See, never Trump.
00:23:57.000 Look what we did.
00:23:58.000 Never Trump.
00:23:59.000 Because if I go to the voters of Colorado, we win Colorado.
00:24:05.000 So it's a crooked, crooked system.
00:24:08.000 You know, we think about democracy and we think about our country.
00:24:12.000 Let me tell you a little secret as far as our country is concerned.
00:24:15.000 We have a democracy, but we've got to keep our democracy and we're going to do that.
00:24:20.000 OK, so we have to keep our democracy.
00:24:22.000 Our democracy is being schlonged, according to according to Donald Trump.
00:24:27.000 They decided to do this process through you know what?
00:24:31.000 Which I don't know what that means.
00:24:32.000 They decided to do the process through you-know-what according to Donald Trump, and then for some reason they decided eventually to do the process through delegates.
00:24:39.000 Like, throw them in the wash.
00:24:42.000 The delegates, I guess.
00:24:43.000 But in any case, he says that the entire system has been rigged, the entire system has been fixed, and then he adds on top of this that he's gonna burn the whole house down.
00:24:50.000 If he doesn't get what he wants, then he's going to burn everything down.
00:24:53.000 He warns the RNC, you screw with me, and you're screwing with the guys behind me with the pitchforks and the torches.
00:24:59.000 Here he is.
00:25:00.000 I watch Bernie.
00:25:01.000 He wins.
00:25:01.000 He wins.
00:25:02.000 He keeps winning, winning, winning.
00:25:04.000 And then I see he's got no chance.
00:25:06.000 They always say he has no chance.
00:25:07.000 Why doesn't he have a chance?
00:25:09.000 Because the system is corrupt.
00:25:10.000 And it's worse on the Republican side.
00:25:13.000 Because I'm up millions of votes on Cruz.
00:25:16.000 Millions.
00:25:16.000 I don't mean like I'm up by two votes.
00:25:19.000 I'm up millions and millions of votes.
00:25:23.000 I'm up by hundreds and hundreds of delegates.
00:25:26.000 I go to Louisiana.
00:25:29.000 I win Louisiana, and I say, isn't that beautiful?
00:25:32.000 I love the people.
00:25:33.000 I send them a note.
00:25:33.000 Thank you very much.
00:25:34.000 I love you, Louisiana.
00:25:35.000 Then I find out that I get less delegates than crews because of some nonsense going on.
00:25:40.000 No, I'm telling you.
00:25:42.000 And I say this to the RNC and I say it to the Republican Party.
00:25:47.000 You're going to have a big problem, folks, because there are people that don't like what's going on.
00:25:51.000 You know, they don't like what's going on.
00:25:54.000 We've got a corrupt system.
00:25:56.000 It's not right.
00:25:57.000 We're supposed to be a democracy.
00:25:59.000 We're supposed to be, we're supposed to be, you vote and the vote means something.
00:26:06.000 Okay, so, I want to be very clear about something.
00:26:08.000 He's wrong about something, and he is the case in point of why he is wrong about something.
00:26:14.000 The Founders did not like democracy.
00:26:16.000 The Founding Fathers feared democracy.
00:26:18.000 They didn't like the idea of a democracy.
00:26:20.000 They looked at the French Revolution, and they said, this is not a good thing, right?
00:26:24.000 Well, what they said is, this is too much, because the fact is that we don't trust the people to make all the decisions.
00:26:30.000 They need to elect the best people.
00:26:32.000 to fight with each other and then make decisions.
00:26:34.000 This is the difference between a republic and a democracy.
00:26:37.000 So James Madison in Federalist No.
00:26:39.000 10, he says, In a pure democracy, quote, there is nothing to check the inducement to sacrifice the weaker party or the obnoxious individual.
00:26:46.000 In a pure democracy, in other words, the majority just runs roughshod over the minority.
00:26:51.000 John Adams said, remember, he said this about democracy, remember, democracy never lasts long.
00:26:56.000 It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself.
00:26:58.000 There was never a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.
00:27:01.000 And the reason for that is because democracies tend to cannibalize the people who live under the democracy.
00:27:06.000 The majority cannibalizes the minority, the poor cannibalize the rich, the people who have political power cannibalize everybody else.
00:27:13.000 John Marshall, who's the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, he said, between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.
00:27:22.000 So when you hear Donald Trump say, we don't have a democracy here, what they wanted was a democracy.
00:27:27.000 No, the founders actually didn't want a democracy.
00:27:29.000 The founders wanted a republic.
00:27:30.000 The founders liked the idea that you would vote for delegates who you thought were good people, who were going to vote for other people, who were going to vote for other people, and this was the whole purpose of having a Republican system.
00:27:39.000 We could have referenda on every issue.
00:27:41.000 We could.
00:27:42.000 We could have direct democracy on every single issue.
00:27:44.000 We don't.
00:27:44.000 The reason is because we assume that most people are going to vote for their own self-interest, and we also assume that the people who they elect hopefully will have some interests that are better than those of the population at heart.
00:27:56.000 If I vote for a congressperson, my personal interest may be in that congressman giving me money, but that congressman also has to answer to 100,000 other people.
00:28:04.000 So he's not always going to give me what I want.
00:28:06.000 That's the idea of a republic, in short.
00:28:09.000 But Trump doesn't understand the difference between the two, and a lot of people in the Republican Party seem not to understand the real difference between the two.
00:28:18.000 And it's a very important distinction.
00:28:20.000 So in this particular case, let's take Colorado, for example.
00:28:23.000 First of all, the reason that the founders feared the idea of a democracy was not merely the idea that the majority would overrule the minority.
00:28:31.000 It was the idea that you would have a demagogic leader.
00:28:33.000 You'd have a demagogic leader.
00:28:35.000 We're good to go.
00:29:03.000 Right, the fact is, so Madison suggests, quote,
00:29:29.000 So the founders were very clear on this.
00:29:31.000 They were very clear on the idea that we would have checks and balances, and we'd have a Republican system, and this is carried over to how delegates are selected.
00:29:38.000 Now, the difference between this and what the Democrats do, the Democrats have a bunch of people who are selected not even by people who are elected, right?
00:29:44.000 They have the DNC, which is not really an elected body, and then they have the DNC select a bunch of higher echelon Democrats to be superdelegates, and they just select them.
00:29:54.000 They just picked them out of thin air.
00:29:56.000 Colorado, delegates are elected, those delegates elect more delegates, and those delegates finally send a delegation to the national convention to vote for somebody.
00:30:04.000 There's nothing wrong with the idea of a republic, and Trump is railing against it.
00:30:07.000 And the reason, again, that the founders feared the idea of direct democracy is because of people like Trump.
00:30:12.000 They don't like the idea that you'd have a demagogue who stands up there and says, the entire system is rigged, come with me, the majority of you, and let's go burn down that guy's house. 0.97
00:30:21.000 All right, let's go out there and let's just burn that guy. 0.94
00:30:23.000 The rules don't apply in a democracy. 0.98
00:30:25.000 All that matters is popular appeal.
00:30:28.000 And so the founders actually feared folks like Trump.
00:30:30.000 They feared the kind of populist demagogues like Donald Trump.
00:30:34.000 And so when you hear people say, your voice doesn't matter if you elect people, that's like saying, well, my voice doesn't matter because I elect a congressperson as opposed to voting directly on the matters that the congressperson votes upon.
00:30:43.000 That's not true.
00:30:44.000 That's not true.
00:30:45.000 That's not how the founders designed the system.
00:30:47.000 I think they were wise.
00:30:48.000 I think they were wise to do that.
00:30:49.000 Because pure democracy doesn't work.
00:30:50.000 Whoever is the most popular at the time is able to run roughshod over everybody else by inflaming the passions of the population, as opposed to the slow, deliberative process of a republic.
00:31:01.000 And that's what the RNC has attempted to set up. 0.59
00:31:03.000 That doesn't mean they do it perfectly.
00:31:05.000 But it's better than, it actually is better, and this is proof positive, is this particular election cycle.
00:31:11.000 It is.
00:31:12.000 I think Trump is a demagogue.
00:31:13.000 I think Trump is terrible for the party.
00:31:14.000 I think he's terrible for conservatism.
00:31:16.000 If there are delegates who get elected, and they believe that, then they have the capacity to stand up and say no.
00:31:21.000 Edmund Burke wrote this, and he said this is one of the difference between a republic and a democracy, is that if the republican figure thinks that the population is wrong, they're electing the man for his judgment, not just to be a carrier for their message.
00:31:35.000 He's not just a vote in human form.
00:31:37.000 He's a person who has biases and opinions, and that's the person that you're electing.
00:31:42.000 And that's the beauty of living in a republic.
00:31:44.000 As opposed to a democracy, we elect people to make independent decisions.
00:31:47.000 If we didn't do that, we might as well just vote on everything online.
00:31:52.000 Meanwhile, I just want to point something out.
00:31:54.000 Donald Trump is not the only candidate to me who is unpalatable on the Republican side.
00:31:58.000 John Kasich is absolutely unpalatable to me on the Republican side.
00:32:01.000 Oh, God, no.
00:32:02.000 Please, God.
00:32:03.000 Not John Kasich.
00:32:05.000 Yes, John Kasich.
00:32:06.000 John Kasich was asked over the last couple of days, he was asked about the Supreme Court and same-sex marriage and signing into
00:32:14.000 Law, some of these religious freedom restoration act.
00:32:16.000 What those are designed to do is there are states all over the country where regulatory bodies have now decided that private people must be forced by the force of law.
00:32:24.000 They must be forced under penalty of fine or jailing.
00:32:28.000 They must be forced
00:32:29.000 To serve same-sex weddings, for example.
00:32:31.000 They have to be forced into participation in sin.
00:32:34.000 Here's my perspective on sin.
00:32:36.000 I can think what you're doing is a sin.
00:32:37.000 You don't have to care.
00:32:38.000 Welcome to freedom.
00:32:40.000 Also, you can think what I'm doing is a sin by not serving you.
00:32:43.000 I don't have to care.
00:32:44.000 Welcome to freedom.
00:32:45.000 The nature of freedom is you don't have to like what I'm doing, I don't have to like what you're doing.
00:32:48.000 If I don't owe you a duty, and I don't,
00:32:51.000 Then you have no business telling me what to do.
00:32:53.000 Right?
00:32:53.000 That's the basic perspective of freedom.
00:32:56.000 John Kasich feels differently. 0.92
00:32:57.000 What drives me nuts about John Kasich is that he is a tyrant in the guise of a guy who's just apathetic. 0.94
00:33:02.000 I just don't care. 0.64
00:33:03.000 Watch what he says here, and what you'll notice is that he conflates government tyranny with, well, people really shouldn't care.
00:33:09.000 It's just apathy.
00:33:10.000 Well, everybody should leave each other alone.
00:33:12.000 Also, the government should force things.
00:33:13.000 He holds these two positions simultaneously.
00:33:15.000 Here's Kasich.
00:33:16.000 I'm a traditional marriage guy, okay?
00:33:19.000 I believe a man and a woman.
00:33:20.000 But I went home one day, I said, sweetie, we've been invited to a gay wedding.
00:33:24.000 This was after the court.
00:33:26.000 I said, what do you think?
00:33:26.000 She said, well, I'm going.
00:33:27.000 I don't know if you are or not.
00:33:29.000 And we went.
00:33:31.000 And look, here's the thing.
00:33:33.000 We may disagree with something about people's lifestyles and all those kinds of things.
00:33:38.000 We may disagree.
00:33:40.000 But you know what?
00:33:41.000 Let's try to understand each other a little bit.
00:33:44.000 What are we going to do?
00:33:45.000 Write a law?
00:33:46.000 I read about this thing they did in Mississippi where apparently you can deny somebody service because they're gay? 0.95
00:33:52.000 What the hell are we doing in this country?
00:33:55.000 I mean, look, I may not appreciate a certain lifestyle or even approve of it, but I can... That doesn't mean I gotta go write a law and try to figure out how to have another wedge issue, because one of the things that's happening on this issue itself is that there are politicians that are using it to get publicity, which ultimately hides us.
00:34:15.000 We had a Supreme Court ruling, and you know what?
00:34:17.000 Let's move on.
00:34:19.000 Let's move on from where we are.
00:34:21.000 It gets to be a tricky thing about how much you involve somebody against some deeply held belief.
00:34:27.000 But most of the time, I think we can accommodate one another, don't you?
00:34:30.000 I think, sweetie, we can accommodate one another even when we can have some profound differences.
00:34:36.000 Okay, we can accommodate one another, except when I'm using the power of government to cram down on you a violation of your religion.
00:34:41.000 Right, so he's couching this as, just be a nice guy.
00:34:44.000 Just be a nice guy.
00:34:45.000 That's not the issue.
00:34:46.000 Okay, the government doesn't get to force you to be John Kasich's definition of a nice guy.
00:34:50.000 He doesn't have the right to do that.
00:34:51.000 I don't care what John Kasich thinks.
00:34:53.000 Why in the world would I care what this man, who as Ace of Spades put it, looks like his face went through the wash twice in my pocket.
00:34:59.000 Why does he get to say that the government gets to cram down what a nice guy looks like?
00:35:05.000 Why am I supposed to care?
00:35:06.000 Why does he get to bring a gun to the party?
00:35:08.000 You know, it's not his job to determine that I'm being mean.
00:35:11.000 What the hell are we doing here?
00:35:12.000 I don't care what you say, John Kasich.
00:35:14.000 As a religious person, I care significantly more about what I believe God says.
00:35:18.000 And that's my business.
00:35:19.000 It's my business.
00:35:20.000 But he couches this in the form of, I'm just trying to be a nice guy.
00:35:24.000 You're not being a nice guy if you're forcing... If concessions are only coming from one side, right?
00:35:28.000 If I have to tolerate, not only tolerate, cater to your behavior, why don't you ever have to tolerate mine?
00:35:33.000 Why don't you ever have to tolerate mine?
00:35:35.000 Right? 0.97
00:35:36.000 So the rule now is that I have to serve the same-sex wedding, but you don't have to observe my definition of sin, which is that you shouldn't participate in homosexual sex, right? 1.00
00:35:45.000 You don't have to... So that's only one side.
00:35:48.000 I think that both sides should be equal in this respect, okay?
00:35:50.000 You don't have to care about my definition of sin.
00:35:52.000 I don't have to care about your definition of not being a nice guy, John Kasich.
00:35:56.000 And John Kasich, he's militantly, I'm a nice guy. 0.99
00:35:59.000 Anybody who's militantly, I'm a nice guy, is actually a jerk. 1.00
00:36:02.000 Anybody who spends their life going around telling you what a nice person they are, is a jackass. 0.99
00:36:05.000 Like, you've never met a person who goes around telling you what a nice person they are, who turns out to be a nice person. 0.96
00:36:10.000 It turns out they're trying to use you for something, right?
00:36:12.000 The only people who tell you how nice they are, are con men, and people trying to sell you cars, and dates who are trying to get you into bed.
00:36:18.000 That's the only people who are ever telling you what nice human beings they are.
00:36:21.000 Because normally, you just sort of let that come out in your behavior.
00:36:24.000 But John Kasich is militant in how nice he is.
00:36:26.000 He's so nice that he's gonna force you to be nice.
00:36:29.000 It's really despicable.
00:36:30.000 By the way, what he says there, the Supreme Court decided.
00:36:32.000 Let's move on.
00:36:34.000 They also decided Roe v. Wade.
00:36:35.000 Does that mean we just move on on abortion?
00:36:38.000 They also decided at one point that black people weren't people in Dred Scott.
00:36:41.000 Should we have just moved on?
00:36:42.000 The Supreme Court decided.
00:36:44.000 They said in Plessy v. Ferguson that segregation was totally fine under the Constitution.
00:36:48.000 Should we have just moved on from that?
00:36:50.000 They said in Skinner v. Oklahoma that states could sterilize the mentally ill.
00:36:55.000 Sterilize the mentally disabled, right? 1.00
00:36:56.000 Sterilize them. 0.67
00:36:57.000 Should we have just moved on from that?
00:36:59.000 Was that fine?
00:37:00.000 They said that the federal government could imprison people without evidence of guilt, right, in Korematsu. 0.74
00:37:05.000 So we just moved on. 1.00
00:37:06.000 It's so stupid. 1.00
00:37:07.000 It's such a dumb argument. 1.00
00:37:08.000 But it's convenient for him, so he says it anyway. 0.99
00:37:10.000 John Kasich is unpalatable. 0.96
00:37:11.000 He's an unpalatable human. 0.99
00:37:12.000 He's an unpalatable candidate. 0.73
00:37:14.000 And this is why every time I see him, it's, oh God, no, please God, no, not John Kasich.
00:37:18.000 Especially because he's militant in his belief that he's actually being a good religious man by suggesting that the government has the power to force you to violate your religion.
00:37:27.000 That's an amazing thing.
00:37:27.000 It's dangerous stuff.
00:37:28.000 And that's the reason, by the way, why the left doesn't jump on him for citing God, right?
00:37:33.000 They'll call George W. Bush a theocrat.
00:37:35.000 They'll call Ted Cruz a theocrat.
00:37:36.000 They'll never call John Kasich a theocrat because he's citing the Bible badly to push leftism. 0.91
00:37:41.000 It's really gross. 0.67
00:37:42.000 Okay, so...
00:37:44.000 I want to talk a little bit about the media circus that is now surrounding this.
00:37:47.000 I talked earlier in the program about the fact that the media are going to back the Democrats all the way up to the top.
00:37:53.000 They're going to back the- like, Trump hasn't even seen it yet, how badly the media are going to back the Democrats.
00:37:58.000 A couple of pieces of evidence of this today.
00:38:00.000 So, Chris Mazzio and I must say,
00:38:03.000 Man who brushes hair with a shoe.
00:38:05.000 Chris Matthews, I'm an MCC.
00:38:06.000 Yeah, I'm Bernie Sanders' campaign manager.
00:38:09.000 And yeah, it's been a few years since he had a thrill running up his leg.
00:38:12.000 But now, now, he hasn't just moved up his leg.
00:38:16.000 Now from Bernie Sanders, he's not just feeling a thrill in his knee and like in his ankle and running up his thigh.
00:38:22.000 No, it's finally reached his erogenous zones.
00:38:24.000 Really, this is what he says.
00:38:26.000 You ready?
00:38:26.000 Chris Matthews, go!
00:38:28.000 Hillary Clinton's had experience on paper.
00:38:30.000 What do you mean?
00:38:31.000 Well, look, she's Secretary of State. 0.99
00:38:33.000 She was a Senator.
00:38:34.000 She was First Lady of the United States and of Arkansas.
00:38:37.000 She has an incredibly impressive resume.
00:38:39.000 There's no doubt about it.
00:38:41.000 But when you go beyond it and you look at
00:38:44.000 Her support of things like the Iraq war, her support for disastrous trade deals, her support for DOMA, her efforts during the 2008 race to keep the governor of New York from giving driver's licenses to undocumented workers.
00:38:58.000 When you look at these things over and over and over again, there's more there than just the resume.
00:39:02.000 Well, there's an amazing number of things you've mentioned that I have to agree with you and your candidate on, as you know.
00:39:06.000 You know my erogenous zone, you're hitting it.
00:39:08.000 Let me just tell you this.
00:39:09.000 The problem is, the problem is... That's condemnatory.
00:39:12.000 No, it isn't.
00:39:14.000 Don't be sarcastic.
00:39:15.000 Anyway, it seems to me you've got a lot of good arguments, but you overstayed your case.
00:39:18.000 First of all, your candidate, Senator Sinise, who you've been working for for so many years, basically said, I'm not questioning her qualifications.
00:39:26.000 It sounds like you are.
00:39:27.000 Okay, so he continues along these lines, but you're hitting all of his erogenous zones.
00:39:31.000 Kathleen, my wife, who works over at the hotel, she works at the Hilton. 0.93
00:39:34.000 Let me tell you, she knows where my erogenous zones are. 1.00
00:39:36.000 So do you, Bernie Sanders, you big sexy man. 0.99
00:39:39.000 Jeff Weaver, your campaign manager, hitting all my erogenous zones. 0.95
00:39:42.000 I mean, let me tell you, Barack Obama hit some of them, but you, my friend, you're hitting the inside of the elbow.
00:39:46.000 All my erogenous zones you're grabbing.
00:39:48.000 It's amazing.
00:39:49.000 It's just unbelievable.
00:39:50.000 Michael Isikoff, what do you think about my erogenous zones?
00:39:52.000 Chris Matthews.
00:39:54.000 This is how in the tank they are for the left, right?
00:39:57.000 Chris Matthews is now talking openly about how Bernie Sanders hits his erogenous zones, which is the most horrifying image that any of you have ever had in your mind, I think.
00:40:08.000 Just know that Chris Matthews and Joy Behar both think that Bernie Sanders hits erogenous zones.
00:40:16.000 Yeah, not pleasant imagery here.
00:40:19.000 So after we're done with this, go get some Ajax and wash your brain out. 1.00
00:40:22.000 Okay, but that wasn't the only media worship for the left yesterday. 1.00
00:40:26.000 Nicole Wallace on The View, which really should just be called Chattering Nabobs of Stupidity. 1.00
00:40:32.000 I think it would be a better show title. 0.98
00:40:34.000 It's not as pithy, I guess. 1.00
00:40:36.000 Chattering Nabobs of Stupidity. 1.00
00:40:38.000 CNS. 1.00
00:40:41.000 Nicole Wallace is supposed to be the conservative on The View.
00:40:43.000 Which means that she is slightly to the right of Whoopi Goldberg.
00:40:49.000 Meaning she sits on her right.
00:40:50.000 So Nicole Wallace is talking about Hillary Clinton who went on an anti-gun rant. 1.00
00:40:55.000 And here's Nicole Wallace and she too is getting a thrill up her leg.
00:40:59.000 Everybody's got thrills up their legs these days.
00:41:00.000 I don't know what's going on.
00:41:01.000 I don't know what happened.
00:41:01.000 Is it contagious?
00:41:02.000 Is it some sort of Zika virus?
00:41:03.000 What's going on?
00:41:04.000 Nicole Wallace, tell us.
00:41:06.000 He frequently says, well, you know, I represent Vermont.
00:41:09.000 It's a small, rural state.
00:41:11.000 We have no gun laws.
00:41:14.000 Here's what I want you to know.
00:41:17.000 Most of the guns that are used in crimes and violence and killings in New York come from out of state.
00:41:29.000 And the state that has the highest per capita number of those guns that end up committing crimes in New York come from Vermont.
00:41:42.000 I think Hillary's, you take the answers, those two clips right there, I think that's Hillary Clinton at her best. 1.00
00:41:47.000 Yeah, and a lot of people, you know, we watch her speeches on the nights of the primaries live and sometimes they sound, you know, that's an intense environment.
00:41:57.000 Those are huge crowds.
00:41:58.000 I think that she's so policy focused, that she's so effective and powerful in these settings.
00:42:04.000 She seems to have sort of
00:42:06.000 I don't know she's pulled back a little bit and that that attack on on the guns is so you know I got chills this is the third time I've heard it and and you know I think when she makes an argument like that in sort of a more serious tone it's deadly.
00:42:21.000 Okay, so, you know, it's just thrilling.
00:42:24.000 The media is thrilled.
00:42:25.000 Nicole Wallace, a Republican, is thrilled.
00:42:26.000 By the way, what Hillary Clinton is saying is not true.
00:42:30.000 What she's actually saying is not true.
00:42:31.000 Here's what the Washington Post reports today.
00:42:33.000 There were 7,686 guns recovered and traced in New York in 2014, according to the Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms Bureau.
00:42:40.000 The source state was identified.
00:42:42.000 In about 4,600 of those traces, 30% were from within the state.
00:42:48.000 In 2013 and 2014, the states where the most number of out-of-state crime guns originated were Virginia, Pennsylvania, Florida, and Georgia.
00:42:55.000 The state with the most number of guns per 100,000 people was Vermont.
00:43:00.000 But 1% of crime guns whose sources were identified in 2014 originated from Vermont.
00:43:05.000 Because there are two people in Vermont.
00:43:07.000 So in other words, if there were 55 guns, and that's what it was, 55 guns in New York.
00:43:11.000 55 guns came from Vermont.
00:43:13.000 A total.
00:43:13.000 Grand total.
00:43:14.000 55 guns came from Vermont.
00:43:15.000 She says that most of the guns used in crime in New York came from Vermont.
00:43:19.000 That is a lie.
00:43:20.000 What it means is the most guns per capita.
00:43:22.000 Completely meaningless statistic.
00:43:24.000 Because again, 55 guns, coming from like 8 people in Vermont, it's gonna be per capita high, but that doesn't solve for the problem that you had 8,000 guns seized in New York, and 55 of them came from Vermont.
00:43:36.000 So she's lying, but it thrills Nicole Wallace anyway.
00:43:38.000 It's a thrill that...
00:43:40.000 If you're not feeling the thrill for Hillary, I mean, first of all, the number of members of the media who have felt a thrill for Hillary, their combined thrill is significantly higher than any thrill Bill ever felt for Hillary.
00:43:50.000 I mean, way higher than any of that.
00:43:52.000 But it doesn't matter.
00:43:52.000 The media are really, really in the tank for Hillary.
00:43:55.000 And I'm pointing this out, for Sanders, for Hillary, I'm pointing this out because all you folks who think that Trump is just going to go out there and fight the media to a standstill, they have not opened up their guns yet.
00:44:04.000 They have not done a single thing.
00:44:06.000 Meanwhile,
00:44:07.000 Trump's own surrogates are making a botch of things.
00:44:09.000 Ben Carson, who should have disappeared from the national stage about the time of Iowa, he's still hanging around and he is legitimately, has become legitimately the worst campaign surrogate in human history.
00:44:21.000 So Ben Carson, he's hanging around and he's going to tell you how honorable he thinks Donald Trump is, really.
00:44:29.000 But then he says this and it gets kind of a little bit, a little bit awkward.
00:44:35.000 In terms of who can potentially win, I think that would be Donald Trump.
00:44:41.000 Is that what drives you?
00:44:44.000 Well, look at the consequences of us not winning.
00:44:47.000 It's too horrible to even think about.
00:44:49.000 Like I said, I can't vote for him.
00:44:50.000 I think he's a bad man.
00:44:53.000 I can't vote for Hillary. 0.97
00:44:54.000 I think she's a bad woman. 1.00
00:44:55.000 I'm obviously simplifying it.
00:45:00.000 Who among us isn't?
00:45:00.000 I recognize that not voting is the same as voting for the other side, and I can't do that to my grandchildren.
00:45:05.000 For me, it's about
00:45:22.000 So in other words, if it were just Ben Carson, then he would know that Donald Trump is a bad man and a terrible person and I would never vote for him.
00:45:41.000 But since I have to decide between him and Hillary, then I guess I'll just have to do that because I really have no other choice for my grandchildren.
00:45:49.000 That's Trump's surrogate, okay?
00:45:52.000 That guy endorsed Trump.
00:45:54.000 It's not just Dennis Prager on the radio saying that same precise thing, right? 0.98
00:45:57.000 That he thinks that Trump is a crap show, but he has to choose between Trump and not Trump, and the not Trump is Hillary. 0.96
00:46:04.000 Yeah, which again is an argument, but if you got a campaign surrogate out there trying to claim that you are like the guy that people should enthusiastically vote for, then the best you can do is... Yeah, well, we're all sinners. 0.99
00:46:15.000 Sure, he may resemble Satan in many ways, and he may in fact imitate Satan's actions and thoughts, but...
00:46:22.000 I really believe that, you know, I wouldn't vote for Satan except in this one circumstance.
00:46:26.000 Like that's, that's weak tea, Donna.
00:46:28.000 So if that's the best you can do, very weak tea.
00:46:31.000 Okay, time for some things that I like.
00:46:33.000 It's been a while.
00:46:34.000 I don't think I've ever broken out the Ben Carson impersonation, but, but it's, it's not, it's not bad.
00:46:38.000 Alright, so things I like and things I don't like.
00:46:40.000 So,
00:46:41.000 Let's do a little bit of classical music today, since I've given you lots and lots of books lately, and you're never gonna catch up, let's be real.
00:46:47.000 So we'll give you a little bit of classical music.
00:46:49.000 The Brahms Piano Quintet, one of my very, very favorite pieces of music.
00:46:53.000 It's a magnificent piece.
00:46:56.000 My favorite piece of chamber music.
00:46:58.000 And here's what it sounds like.
00:47:21.000 We're good to go.
00:47:32.000 It's great stuff.
00:47:33.000 It's really good.
00:47:34.000 All the movements are terrific.
00:47:36.000 So, check that out if you enjoy chamber music, and if you don't, then make yourself intelligent and then enjoy chamber music.
00:47:42.000 So, that's my recommendation for the day.
00:47:46.000 By the way, I have to say, I am very excited.
00:47:47.000 I just got at an estate sale.
00:47:51.000 Not excited the person died, but I am excited the person sold the piano.
00:47:54.000 I just got a grand piano for my house, which is pretty cool.
00:47:57.000 That's exciting.
00:47:58.000 Which is great, because my dad plays piano, I play violin.
00:48:00.000 We haven't had a chance to practice together for probably a couple of years.
00:48:03.000 So he's gonna start coming over and we'll start practicing together.
00:48:05.000 Because, as I've said before on the program, we're having a boy in just a few weeks.
00:48:10.000 My wife and I are having a boy, with the help of God, in just a few weeks.
00:48:13.000 With the help of the doctors.
00:48:14.000 And one of the things that we've been doing since, literally, I was a baby.
00:48:19.000 When we had my circumcision ceremony, my Brie Mila, when I was eight days old, my dad and one of his friends played the first movement of the Brahms Violin Sonata in D Major.
00:48:28.000 When I was bar mitzvah, my dad and I played the first movement of the Brahms Violin Sonata in D Major.
00:48:33.000 When I was married, we played the Brahms Violin Sonata, first movement in D Major.
00:48:36.000 And at my son's
00:48:38.000 Okay, other things that I like.
00:48:46.000 So from the sublime to the ridiculous, Steve Kornacki is a host on MSNBC, and every so often you see people who really don't know how the green screen works, and that's basically what happens here.
00:48:59.000 He is trying to draw the United States, and things go wildly wrong.
00:49:06.000 Don't do it dude.
00:49:07.000 Just don't do it.
00:49:24.000 No.
00:49:24.000 Folks, if you're not subscribing, you're really missing out.
00:49:26.000 Or maybe you're the big winner today if you didn't subscribe.
00:49:53.000 I wrote 172.
00:49:53.000 We want to talk about that number because that is another really important figure, right?
00:49:58.000 We can just stop right here.
00:50:00.000 Some people should not draw on whiteboards.
00:50:02.000 It went wildly wrong in there.
00:50:05.000 Folks, if you subscribe, then you're probably laughing right now.
00:50:07.000 If you don't subscribe, you don't know why people are laughing.
00:50:10.000 That's why you should subscribe, that's all I'll say about that.
00:50:13.000 So, his picture of the United States did not end up looking like the United States, let's just say that.
00:50:18.000 Okay, time for some things that I... Actually, one more thing that I like.
00:50:23.000 So, Jimmy Kimmel did this new spoof of Captain America Civil War, except it stars Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders, and here's what it looked like.
00:50:31.000 This summer, an all-American idealist faces off against a diabolical billionaire.
00:50:39.000 The American dream is an American nightmare.
00:50:43.000 The American dream is dead.
00:50:46.000 Big money buys the elections.
00:50:50.000 I'm really rich.
00:50:51.000 I'll show you that in a second.
00:50:52.000 Our campaign does not have a super PAC.
00:50:57.000 I'm in for about $35 million right now.
00:50:59.000 Can I finish, please?
00:51:00.000 Excuse me.
00:51:01.000 Excuse me.
00:51:01.000 I'm talking.
00:51:02.000 Bing, bing, bong, bong, bing, bing, bing.
00:51:19.000 At the very end, Ben Carson shows up as Spider-Man.
00:51:23.000 The whole thing's not very funny until Hillary shows up as Scarlet Witch. 1.00
00:51:26.000 That's pretty funny.
00:51:27.000 So that was pretty funny.
00:51:29.000 Okay, a couple of things that I hate, and then I promise that I will be done so that our producers can actually live the rest of their lives today.
00:51:36.000 Okay, so first of all,
00:51:38.000 I don't know whether to hate this or love this.
00:51:39.000 Rachel Dolezal, you remember Rachel Dolezal.
00:51:41.000 Rachel Dolezal was the white chick who said that she was a black chick so that she could make her way in the racial world. 1.00
00:51:48.000 She ended up as a local NAACP leader by curling her hair and wearing heavy makeup, basically. 1.00
00:51:54.000 She was an artist and she went to Howard University and there decided that she was indeed black.
00:51:58.000 She says she identifies as black even though both her parents are white and she grew up in a white household.
00:52:03.000 And I just have one question, same question I've had since the very beginning.
00:52:06.000 Why is Rachel Dolezal so terrible but Caitlyn Jenner is so grand?
00:52:10.000 Why is it that Rachel Dolezal says she's black? 1.00
00:52:13.000 And Caitlyn Jenner says that he's a woman.
00:52:16.000 There's significantly more biology to prove that Caitlyn Jenner is a man than to prove that Rachel Dolezal is white. 0.94
00:52:22.000 Like really, there's a lot more.
00:52:23.000 Because presumably, you go back far enough, everybody comes from Africa.
00:52:26.000 Our common ancestor was in Africa, so our mitochondrial DNA would suggest that there's more African in Rachel Dolezal than there is female in Caitlyn Jenner, but...
00:52:36.000 You know, she's now writing a book.
00:52:37.000 That's why she's back in the news.
00:52:38.000 So she's writing a book.
00:52:39.000 I assume it can, I don't know if it has a title yet.
00:52:41.000 Did she give it a title?
00:52:43.000 There's no title yet.
00:52:44.000 It must be something called Black Like Me, maybe.
00:52:52.000 Maybe she'll have the foreword written by Robert Downey Jr.
00:52:54.000 from Tropic Thunder.
00:52:57.000 It could be anything.
00:52:57.000 So that's very exciting.
00:52:59.000 In other bad news today, Sarah Palin is going to do a debate with Bill Nye on climate change.
00:53:04.000 This makes me want to put my face through a cheese grater.
00:53:08.000 First of all, Bill Nye debating anybody is like, eh.
00:53:11.000 And then you add on top of that Sarah Palin, and she's gonna be debating science. 0.89
00:53:14.000 Sarah Palin is going to be... We cannot do better than Sarah Palin? 1.00
00:53:17.000 Like, that was the best shot?
00:53:19.000 Okay, we gotta debate this guy Bill Nye, right?
00:53:21.000 He's not a great scientist, but at least knows something about science.
00:53:24.000 Who do we got?
00:53:25.000 Who do we got on our slate here?
00:53:26.000 Well...
00:53:26.000 Let's get Sarah Palin.
00:53:27.000 Let's get her. 1.00
00:53:27.000 Let's do that. 1.00
00:53:28.000 Let's get Sarah Palin, who's busy... 1.00
00:53:48.000 Literally doing freestyle rap during her speeches for Donald Trump.
00:53:52.000 Let's do that.
00:53:53.000 I can't imagine how this will go wrong in any way. 1.00
00:53:56.000 And this, of course, is part and parcel of the left's goal, which is to turn all of us into idiots, right? 1.00
00:54:00.000 To make us all look stupid. 1.00
00:54:02.000 That's the goal here, which is why they asked Palin in the first place. 1.00
00:54:05.000 And Palin should have known better than this. 0.99
00:54:08.000 But this is all to make us look dumb. 0.92
00:54:10.000 And the reason they want to make us look dumb is because now there's a new drive on to actually try and fire people or prosecute people for climate change, what they call client change deniers. 0.86
00:54:19.000 So according to the Daily Signal today, a federal science agency is seriously interested in reviewing tens of millions in taxpayer-funded grants awarded to a university professor who wants President Obama to prosecute those who don't share the administration's view that mankind is changing the world's climate.
00:54:36.000 So apparently, there's a guy named Jagadish Shukla, and he manages federal grant money.
00:54:42.000 And Shukla has apparently been working closely with college professors who want to prosecute various climate change deniers, which is pretty amazing.
00:54:55.000 So this is the new thing.
00:54:57.000 He was double dipping in state funds in violation of university policy, but the bottom line is that there's a new attempt to crack down on climate change deniers and suggest that they must be prosecuted by the federal government.
00:55:10.000 There's an article today along those lines.
00:55:13.000 The U.S.
00:55:14.000 Attorney General had said this, actually.
00:55:15.000 The U.S.
00:55:16.000 Attorney General of the Department of Justice had said that people might be prosecuted
00:55:20.000 Attorney General Loretta Lynch said this back in March.
00:55:22.000 She said, Because they say that it's just like when the tobacco industry put out false advertising about how tobacco was healthy.
00:55:40.000 So you could prosecute the tobacco industry for misleading.
00:55:43.000 Except that nobody is dying from climate change, folks.
00:55:46.000 It ain't happening.
00:55:46.000 Nobody is smoking the smog.
00:55:49.000 Nobody's going out there and breathing real deep and now you're dead.
00:55:52.000 It turns out that that oxygen in the air, you still need it to survive.
00:55:55.000 So that's pretty crazy.
00:55:56.000 Okay, final thing that I hate for today.
00:55:59.000 I know, I know.
00:55:59.000 Don't worry.
00:56:00.000 We're finishing up.
00:56:01.000 Julianne Moore.
00:56:03.000 Julianne Moore is an actress, and she's not been in a lot of good movies lately.
00:56:08.000 I used to really think that Julianne Moore is a good actress, but now she's gone full lefty route, which means she only acts in films where she is basically a feminist or a lesbian or both, right? 1.00
00:56:19.000 Those are the films that Julianne Moore does now. 1.00
00:56:21.000 Well, now she's writing letters for Lena Dunham's Lenny, which is the name of Lena Dunham's self-titled newsletter.
00:56:29.000 And her latest column there,
00:56:30.000 Is about when gun control got personal for me, Julianne Moore, when it got personal for her. 1.00
00:56:35.000 So she talks about how in December 2012, she had her 10-year-old daughter with her on a movie set, and she had started her winter break, and she heard about Sandy Hook.
00:56:44.000 And she finally, and she tried to keep the news away from her daughter, and finally her daughter found out about it, and she says quote,
00:56:50.000 At that moment, it felt ridiculous to me and irresponsible as a parent and as a citizen that I was not doing something to prevent gun violence.
00:56:57.000 Simply keeping the news away from my child was putting my head in the sand.
00:57:00.000 I wasn't helping her or anyone else by doing that.
00:57:02.000 So I decided to learn more, and this is what I learned.
00:57:04.000 And then it's a bunch of talking points about how gun control is the best and gun control would have stopped Sandy Hook. 0.66
00:57:10.000 Nonsense. 1.00
00:57:10.000 Absolute crap. 1.00
00:57:11.000 She could have taken away from that, by the way. 1.00
00:57:13.000 Mentally ill people should not be out in the world where they can grab guns and kill people, right? 1.00
00:57:17.000 Severely mentally ill people like Adam Lanza shouldn't be out in the world 0.99
00:57:20.000 Where they can do all of this, but she didn't learn any of that.
00:57:23.000 Instead, she learned what made her feel good because she can now tell all her friends that she's an anti-gun activist.
00:57:28.000 She doesn't know anything about guns.
00:57:29.000 She doesn't know anything about gun violence. 0.99
00:57:30.000 She doesn't care about the vast majority of gun violence in the United States, which unfortunately takes place in black communities where blacks are killing other blacks and gangs and, yes, disproportionately affecting people underage. 0.91
00:57:41.000 She doesn't, you know, that spectacular gun violence episode in Sandy Hook made her believe that she now had to take action and grab everybody's gun. 0.54
00:57:50.000 I'm glad she feels better about herself, but she's also guarded by armed security every time she's on a movie set, and that makes things very, very comfortable for her.
00:57:58.000 Makes things very, very comfortable for her.
00:57:59.000 Okay, folks, so tomorrow we will be back.
00:58:03.000 And a reminder for folks, if you want to send in mails with the mailbag, we get lots and lots of mail.
00:58:07.000 Sorry, Lindsey.
00:58:07.000 I'm going to mention the email address again.
00:58:09.000 Lindsey will respond to you or try to.
00:58:11.000 The email address is bshapiro at dailywire.com.
00:58:14.000 And this week, as we said last week, this week, the special number, if you are a subscriber, if you want to get to the top of the mail list, is this number.
00:58:22.000 Yes, indeed. 0.70
00:58:23.000 So if you write with that number in your subject line, then you will be given top priority as a subscriber, which is why you should subscribe, also so that you can watch people from MSNBC draw male genitalia on national television. 0.91
00:58:34.000 That's the really important part.
00:58:36.000 We'll be back tomorrow, and have yourself a nice rest of the day, and try not to break everything while I'm gone.
00:58:41.000 I'm Ben Shapiro, this is The Ben Shapiro Show.
