00:00:00.000 Here we are, it's a Wednesday, and the world is in the midst of its slow-motion collapse, but at least President Obama had fun in Cuba yesterday.
00:00:07.000 I mean, serious fun.
00:00:09.000 He gave a speech.
00:00:10.000 He took a picture in front of a mural of a terrorist, right?
00:00:13.000 Che Guevara behind him.
00:00:15.000 He went to a ballgame, and he yucked it up with a guy who used to do this sort of thing on a routine basis.
00:00:20.000 That right there is Raul Castro blindfolding a guy who's about to get shot.
00:00:23.000 He's a real charmer.
00:00:24.000 So, the important thing, though, is that Barack Obama made clear to everybody he's a super-duper important dude.
00:00:30.000 He said he ended the Cold War in the Western Hemisphere yesterday.
00:00:34.000 That's a contention that might be challenged by the 11 million or so people stuck in that communist hellhole.
00:00:39.000 And then he patted himself on the back while smoking a cigar and drinking a pina colada.
00:00:43.000 That takes three arms, so the Castro's actually just chopped off one.
00:00:46.000 from a dissident and gave it to Obama as a gift, which he accepted as a token of friendship.
00:00:50.000 And this is our president. 0.99
00:00:51.000 He's a shallow, pathetic, ridiculous little man-child, and he simply wants to be loved, even if he's looking for love in all the wrong places. 0.99
00:00:58.000 And if people disagree that Obama's great, well, he can always take a lead from his new friend, the Castros. 0.99
00:01:03.000 Okay, so I just want to point something out here.
00:01:05.000 You see that building behind Che Guevara?
00:01:07.000 It's actually worse than the sculpture of Che Guevara.
00:01:10.000 It turns out that's the Cuban Ministry of the Interior.
00:01:12.000 That's where they imprison, torture, and punish all the dissenters.
00:01:15.000 It's like a KGB factory.
00:01:17.000 Maybe Obama will save the interior of that building for his next tour.
00:01:21.000 Or maybe he'll just go to another ballgame and really enjoy himself.
00:01:26.000 What a guy.
00:01:27.000 Well, lots to talk about today.
00:01:28.000 I'm Ben Shapiro.
00:01:29.000 This is The Ben Shapiro Show.
00:01:37.000 So as the Constitution is being assaulted from all sides by President Obama, by Donald Trump, by just pretty much everybody who's never read the thing, don't care about the thing, it's important for you to know what the Constitution stands for.
00:01:50.000 What are the principles and what are the values that undergird the Constitution of the United States?
00:01:54.000 You may have read the document, still not understand it that well, you need somebody to really explain to you what it's all about.
00:02:00.000 The folks at Hillsdale College do that better than anybody on the planet.
00:02:03.000 They are wonderful.
00:02:04.000 Hillsdale College is a great, great college.
00:02:07.000 If you're sending your kid to college, Hillsdale should be at the top of your list.
00:02:10.000 But beyond that, they have a new course they just brought out.
00:02:13.000 You can access it at hillsdale.edu slash ben.
00:02:15.000 And it's a free course, perfectly free, called Constitution 101.
00:02:18.000 It's an online video course.
00:02:20.000 And you can hear about what the Constitution really says, what your rights are, how the government is supposed to work.
00:02:25.000 The Constitution 101 course from Hillsdale College at hillsdale.edu slash ben.
00:02:30.000 Can't recommend it more highly.
00:02:32.000 It really is a wonderful institution and a wonderful course.
00:02:35.000 I've actually checked it out.
00:02:35.000 Hillsdale.edu slash ben.
00:02:38.000 Make sure that you go there today.
00:02:39.000 Okay, so yesterday there was a big terrorist attack in Brussels.
00:02:44.000 And as we mentioned, Donald Trump responds the way that most people respond, the way that your uncle on the toilet, if you just heard about it, would respond. 1.00
00:02:50.000 He just says, oh, those damn Muslims closed the borders! 1.00
00:02:55.000 And he's not entirely wrong. 1.00
00:02:56.000 As I said yesterday, he's almost 100% right.
00:02:58.000 When he says that this is an Islamic problem, and when he says that the borders need to be closed to radical Muslims, obviously he's correct. 1.00
00:03:06.000 I also said yesterday that if there is a terrorist attack one week before a general election between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump will be the President of the United States.
00:03:15.000 The reason for that is not so much Trump as it is Hillary Clinton.
00:03:20.000 So, let's take a look at what Hillary Clinton had to say after we finished our show yesterday. 0.92
00:03:24.000 Here's what Hillary Clinton said last night. 0.89
00:03:26.000 She was doing a rally and she was talking about ISIS and here's what Hillary Clinton had to say about ISIS and Donald Trump.
00:03:35.000 The last thing we need, my friends, are leaders who incite more fear.
00:03:42.000 In the face of terror, America doesn't panic.
00:03:47.000 We don't build walls or turn our backs on our allies.
00:03:52.000 We can't throw out everything we know about what works and what doesn't and start torturing people.
00:04:00.000 What Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and others are suggesting is not only wrong, it's dangerous! 0.99
00:04:09.000 Okay, this sort of crap doesn't play. 1.00
00:04:12.000 Doesn't play. 1.00
00:04:13.000 Even her own supporters are there, and they are bound to cheer by blood packed with Satan.
00:04:18.000 But that still does not solve the problem for her, which is that everything she's saying here is incorrect.
00:04:23.000 So Israel has fought terror for literally a decade because they built a giant security fence between themselves and all the Palestinian areas, and suicide bombings went from pretty frequent to almost never.
00:04:33.000 And that's because, again, they built a fence.
00:04:35.000 Israel religiously profiles, and that's why they have a low rate of terror.
00:04:38.000 The West does not religiously profile.
00:04:40.000 That does not mean every Muslim should not be allowed into Israel or into the West.
00:04:43.000 It does mean that unless you buy into the prevailing ideology of freedom,
00:04:48.000 Then you shouldn't be allowed in.
00:04:49.000 Brussels, for those who don't know, is 26% Muslim.
00:04:52.000 One in every four people in Brussels is Muslim.
00:04:55.000 The entire population of Belgium is only 6% Muslim, but this is essentially like Dearborn, Michigan. 0.88
00:04:59.000 It's a very heavily Muslim population in Brussels, a very heavily non-assimilated population in Brussels.
00:05:05.000 When Hillary says we can't react to terrorism with fear,
00:05:09.000 First of all, Hillary doesn't know what she's talking about. 1.00
00:05:10.000 She reacts to terrorism by ignoring it and then blaming YouTube videos for it after it kills Americans.
00:05:16.000 She better than anybody should know what bad policy looks like since she's the author of that bad policy. 0.96
00:05:23.000 But beyond that, of course the natural response to terrorism is fear.
00:05:26.000 And you're going to be afraid until you have a plan.
00:05:28.000 It's just a rule of life.
00:05:29.000 Anytime you're in life and you're afraid and you're upset,
00:05:32.000 That's because you don't have a plan.
00:05:33.000 Once you have a plan, you feel better about everything.
00:05:35.000 This is true for everything from health problems to personal relationship issues.
00:05:39.000 If you don't have a plan, you're going to be more afraid.
00:05:42.000 Planning is what the human brain is made for.
00:05:45.000 You are made for this.
00:05:45.000 You are made to come up with plans to combat the problems in your life.
00:05:50.000 And one of the great battles for religious people is the battle between the human need to plan and the recognition that God's in charge.
00:05:56.000 But, when it comes to politics, a plan is everything.
00:05:59.000 Hillary doesn't have a plan, and you're going to be afraid on terror when you don't have a plan. 1.00
00:06:02.000 People are more afraid of terror now than they were during the Bush administration, because number one, Bush had a plan, and number two, Bush's plan was to kill the bad guys.
00:06:10.000 Obama's plan, I mean, he was in Argentina today.
00:06:13.000 And today, President Obama says the only way to defend them is to just go about our daily business.
00:06:17.000 That's the only way to defend.
00:06:18.000 He was trying to excuse why he went to a ball game yesterday, as we mentioned up top.
00:06:23.000 And his excuse was, well, I learned from the Boston Red Sox that you just have to go out and you have to play baseball, even if you're afraid of terrorism.
00:06:30.000 I said, well, those are the Boston Red Sox.
00:06:32.000 Their job is to play baseball.
00:06:33.000 You're the president of the United States.
00:06:35.000 Your job is to be president of the United States.
00:06:38.000 He also said, by the way, that the best way to fight ISIS was to send them a message they will not win.
00:06:43.000 Like what?
00:06:43.000 On a Hallmark card?
00:06:44.000 Like an engraved invitation?
00:06:46.000 We're gonna send a smoke signal over that?
00:06:47.000 How's that message work exactly?
00:06:49.000 If Obama just calls them up, he's like, it's Barack Obama.
00:06:52.000 Message to you.
00:06:53.000 You're not gonna win.
00:06:54.000 Does anyone really think that that is going to stop terrorism or stop ISIS in any real way?
00:06:59.000 All of this is nonsense and none of it works.
00:07:02.000 And by the way, it's not Donald Trump who's inciting fear.
00:07:04.000 It's people blowing themselves up in the middle of airports that's inciting fear.
00:07:08.000 That's what's creating fear.
00:07:09.000 It turns out that we have a rational fear of people shooting people here in Southern California because it just happened a few months ago.
00:07:15.000 We have a rational fear here in the United States of people flying planes into buildings and blowing themselves up in malls.
00:07:21.000 This is a purely rational fear.
00:07:22.000 There's nothing irrational about this.
00:07:25.000 But Hillary continues to push this message that it's irrational to be afraid.
00:07:29.000 The only rational response is to give a big, warm hug to every Muslim that we can find.
00:07:36.000 And if those Muslims are with Western civilization, then sure, everybody in Western civilization deserves a hug, although please don't invade people's personal spaces, particularly mine. 0.99
00:07:44.000 If you touch me, I'll get upset with you.
00:07:46.000 But Hillary Clinton said this, right?
00:07:48.000 This was her reaction to Wolf Blitzer when she was asked about Donald Trump talking about Islam.
00:07:55.000 Well, that's a long debate that people like him try to stir up.
00:08:00.000 I call it radical jihadist terrorism because it is clearly rooted in Islamic thinking. 0.95
00:08:08.000 You know, has to be contested first and foremost by Muslims around the world. 0.98
00:08:13.000 But I think it's a mistake.
00:08:14.000 I've said that repeatedly.
00:08:15.000 George W. Bush said it.
00:08:17.000 That to do anything that implies we are at war with an entire religion, with 1.2 or 4 billion people, is not only wrong, it is dangerous.
00:08:29.000 Right here at home, we need to be reaching out and including Muslim Americans and communities where they live in our first line of defense.
00:08:38.000 We don't need them to feel that if they hear something or see something that they can't report it.
00:08:43.000 We want them to report it.
00:08:44.000 We want them to be part.
00:08:46.000 of course.
00:09:06.000 Okay, we can stop right here.
00:09:14.000 So there are a couple of things that she's saying.
00:09:15.000 One is that radical Islam is not the same as Islam.
00:09:19.000 I assume that's right, but again, I don't really care what your interpretation of Islam looks like, I care what you do. 0.86
00:09:25.000 I talked about this yesterday, and there is a giant subset of Islam
00:09:28.000 Whether it's a minority or majority is very unclear, statistically speaking.
00:09:32.000 That is very, very radical.
00:09:34.000 And this idea that if we're just nicer to Muslims, they'll start talking to the cops, that's really what's stopping them. 0.99
00:09:38.000 You know, let's put it this way.
00:09:40.000 You know that there's a guy, I'm not that, like, I know a lot of cops and I'm fond of cops generally, but most people...
00:09:46.000 Are kind of scared of cops because most of the time when the cop shows up, it's to do something that you're not going to like.
00:09:53.000 But by the same token, if somebody's living next door and you find out that they're stockpiling bombs, they're building a suicide vest, how fast are you on the phone to the cops?
00:10:00.000 How fast are you personally on the phone to the cops?
00:10:02.000 Is there anything that could dissuade you from going to the cops if you knew somebody was doing that?
00:10:07.000 The idea that if we're just nicer to Muslims in Western Europe or the United States, that this is what's going to drive them to start cooperating more with law enforcement,
00:10:15.000 This is pure nonsense. 0.93
00:10:16.000 It's pure nonsense. 0.98
00:10:17.000 Europe couldn't be any nicer to Muslims in Western Europe. 1.00
00:10:20.000 They're letting them in without assimilating at all. 0.99
00:10:23.000 At all.
00:10:24.000 They're allowing them to form, basically, these conclaves.
00:10:28.000 These large groups of people who have no contact with Western civilization inside Western Europe.
00:10:34.000 And the idea from Hillary is that if we're just nicer, then that will solve it. 0.95
00:10:37.000 By the way, this routine is getting real old.
00:10:40.000 I'm old enough to remember when Rudy Giuliani ran for president eight years ago, and everybody said, ah, he keeps talking about 9-11.
00:10:45.000 He needs to stop talking about 9-11.
00:10:47.000 At least he was there for 9-11. 1.00
00:10:49.000 At least he did something during 9-11. 1.00
00:10:51.000 Hillary dragging out Bin Laden's body every so often, and wheeling it around like weekend at Bernie's. 0.67
00:10:57.000 Is really just gross. 0.92
00:10:58.000 It's really, it's really sickening because let's be real about that.
00:11:00.000 Everybody said, oh, gutsy call.
00:11:02.000 That was the easiest call maybe in the history of American politics.
00:11:05.000 He's the most wanted man in the history of the world, probably. 0.99
00:11:09.000 And you made the call to go in and shoot him.
00:11:12.000 How is that in any way a gutsy call?
00:11:14.000 But Hillary takes credit for that so that we can ignore the fact that she made gutless calls in Benghazi. 1.00
00:11:19.000 She made the gutless call to invade Libya for no apparent reason. 0.98
00:11:22.000 She made gutless call after gutless call in Iran, with Russia, with Syria.
00:11:26.000 It's very tiresome.
00:11:27.000 Hillary, again, is a disaster on foreign policy, and her playing the I-know-what-I'm-doing expert, it doesn't fly. 1.00
00:11:33.000 And this is why Trump against Hillary on foreign policy, if there's a terrorist attack, doesn't work at all for Hillary Clinton.
00:11:41.000 Meanwhile, President Obama has made clear his priority.
00:11:43.000 So as I mentioned, he's in Argentina today, continuing his tour of repudiating the West.
00:11:49.000 So he's in Argentina because Argentina is now run basically by socialists.
00:11:53.000 And they're very over in Argentina.
00:11:55.000 They're very upset because, you know, 30 years ago, there was support from the Reagan administration for for a junta military cadre that killed people.
00:12:04.000 So Obama's down there apologizing to the Argentinians after going to Cuba to apologize to them, even though the current regime of both Argentina and Cuba, they're both terrible.
00:12:12.000 Argentina is less horrifying than Cuba, but neither is any great shakes, obviously. 0.76
00:12:17.000 President Obama is going on his worldwide apology tour, and while he's doing it, he's just making an ass of himself and an ass of America, but he thinks that it makes him look good. 0.93
00:12:26.000 He thinks that it makes him look... 0.93
00:12:27.000 Like the big man on campus.
00:12:29.000 There's a vine that I thought perfectly captured Obama's attitude toward what was happening in Brussels and really in the entire world.
00:12:35.000 Yesterday, somebody obviously photoshopped in a pina colada and a cigar and sunglasses, but here's President Obama yesterday at the Cuban baseball game.
00:12:48.000 That's pretty much right.
00:12:50.000 So, that was President Obama yesterday at the Cuban baseball game.
00:12:54.000 And it's not just that.
00:12:55.000 I mean, President Obama arrives at this Cuban baseball game yesterday.
00:12:58.000 And you see the ESPN microphones.
00:13:00.000 Everybody's pretending this is all great and hunky-dory and wonderful.
00:13:04.000 As I mentioned yesterday, President Obama dislikes the West at a very root level. 0.86
00:13:08.000 He thinks the ideology of the West is nasty and pernicious and racist and exploitative. 0.55
00:13:12.000 And so he likes this.
00:13:14.000 I mean, he likes to go to the Cuban regime and hear people cheer for him, which is what happened.
00:13:18.000 He goes there and Cuba stacks the entire stadium with supporters, all cheering President Obama as he walks in, so he can feel that warm, basking glow of love that he lacked from his father when he was growing up, which is what some of this is about.
00:13:30.000 Here's President Obama walking through the stadium yesterday.
00:13:34.000 People snapping photos and just wonderful, just glorious.
00:13:38.000 ESPN's Dan Lebitard.
00:13:40.000 Who is not a right-winger.
00:13:41.000 He voted for Obama twice, I believe.
00:13:43.000 His father was a Cuban expatriate, and he had family.
00:13:47.000 He was killed by the Castro regime.
00:13:49.000 Yesterday, he talked about what it means that Obama did what he did in Cuba.
00:13:52.000 Here's what it sounded like.
00:13:54.000 I believe in the regime.
00:13:55.000 I believe in the government.
00:13:56.000 Their baseball team has been a propaganda tool for a long time, winning gold medals.
00:14:00.000 And this right here is a win for the Cuban national propaganda machine.
00:14:06.000 America playing a road game with the Cubans.
00:14:10.000 And that's exactly right.
00:14:11.000 It is a propaganda machine.
00:14:12.000 That, by the way, that's a lefty.
00:14:13.000 That's a lefty. 0.93
00:14:14.000 And this is why Donald Trump has a shot.
00:14:16.000 This is why Donald Trump versus Hillary on terror and foreign policy, they have a shot.
00:14:19.000 Because, again, the left is so ensconced in its own bizarre view of the universe that they refuse to acknowledge that there are actual bad guys out there.
00:14:27.000 In fact, they'll reach over backwards in order to help those actual bad guys.
00:14:30.000 Even the left is turning on itself.
00:14:31.000 Chris Matthews of...
00:14:34.000 He was very upset with Obama.
00:14:35.000 Obama just phoned it in in Brussels.
00:14:37.000 Let me tell you, I brush my hair with a shoe and then I go on TV and I talk like this.
00:14:40.000 Go.
00:14:41.000 But let's talk about President Obama's behavior today.
00:14:44.000 I grew up in a big city, Philadelphia, which I'm proud to always say.
00:14:47.000 And Peter, Congressman King understands this.
00:14:50.000 When there's a big fire, you want to see the mayor on the other curb watching it.
00:14:54.000 You want to see the police chief standing there, the fire chief.
00:14:57.000 You want to see them standing on the curb.
00:14:59.000 You don't want to hear they phoned it in.
00:15:01.000 Right.
00:15:01.000 And the President was off base today.
00:15:03.000 He wasn't there.
00:15:04.000 What could he have done better than taking a minute away from a baseball game?
00:15:07.000 You know what?
00:15:07.000 He had to do something.
00:15:08.000 Well, you know what, Chris?
00:15:09.000 I would agree with your analogy if the horrific attack in Brussels happened in the United States.
00:15:15.000 If President Obama were in Cuba and something had happened in the United States that's happened in Brussels... You sure they'd come home?
00:15:20.000 Then I would agree with you.
00:15:40.000 After the Paris attacks, in which Americans died, he did not show up in Paris.
00:15:44.000 He sent Secretary of State John Kerry there instead.
00:15:47.000 And now, he's busy at a baseball game.
00:15:50.000 So, this defense doesn't work.
00:15:51.000 And even, even Chris Matthews, of course, grew up in Philadelphia, knows that great Philadelphia.
00:15:55.000 It's a great state, because Rocky was filmed there.
00:15:57.000 Everybody knows Creed's not as good as Rocky.
00:15:59.000 It was an okay movie.
00:16:00.000 It wasn't my favorite movie, but let me just tell you about Obama.
00:16:02.000 What say you, Michael Isikoff?
00:16:05.000 Even Chris Matthews knows that President Obama is off base here.
00:16:09.000 And this is why, I've said this for years by the way, if Republicans are to win elections ever again, they will win on two issues.
00:16:16.000 Two issues.
00:16:17.000 Crime.
00:16:18.000 National security.
00:16:20.000 That's it.
00:16:21.000 Those are the two issues where they will win.
00:16:23.000 Particularly because women 1.00
00:16:25.000 And I'll explain this in just a minute, but we have to take a quick profit timeout for our friends over at Reagan.com.
00:16:32.000 So you have an email address and you're concerned that the government or that corporations are going to grab your email information, use it to either market to you, spam your inbox, or perhaps to send it over to the federal government for whatever nefarious use they have for it, because, hey, you're not a terrorist, but you want your privacy.
00:16:48.000 So you go to ReaganPrivacy.com.
00:16:50.000 ReaganPrivacy.com.
00:16:51.000 There you obtain your email address.
00:16:53.000 It's your name.
00:16:55.000 We're good to go.
00:17:25.000 When it comes to Republicans winning elections, there's been a lot of talk about Republicans need to win by appealing to white people, Republicans need to win by appealing to lower-class people, Republicans need to win by appealing to Hispanics.
00:17:36.000 There are all these theories about which subgroup you appeal to.
00:17:39.000 The real answer is that Republicans actually need to do better among women. 1.00
00:17:44.000 There's a massive gender gap for Republicans, and there has been for many years.
00:17:48.000 The only time that gender gap was overcome was in 2004, and that was because women were afraid of what was happening overseas.
00:17:55.000 It turns out that by every poll, women, for very good evolutionary reason, are more afraid of violence than men. 0.99
00:18:00.000 And men are not quite as afraid of violence because we're bigger and we're stronger, we have bigger upper body strength and we're stupider. 0.93
00:18:05.000 So that means that we're willing to run into fields of fire and take shots, which is a great thing, but it also means that we are not as fearful of violence as women are. 0.98
00:18:13.000 Women, when they feel threatened, tend to vote for whoever is going to protect them. 1.00
00:18:17.000 And the fact is that what you see is that Republicans like Rudy Giuliani can only win in blue cities like New York if they run on an anti-crime platform.
00:18:26.000 If they run on an anti-crime platform.
00:18:28.000 Now the platform is made for a conservative, seriously, because we're seeing the crime rates go up in every major city in the United States right now, thanks to the Ferguson effect, which is, after Ferguson and the Black Lives Matter movement, police officers have been intimidated into not doing their jobs.
00:18:44.000 Because they're afraid Eric Holder is going to swoop on in and prosecute them for doing their jobs.
00:18:49.000 The same thing is true on foreign policy.
00:18:51.000 Thanks to Obama, the world is on fire.
00:18:53.000 You are at risk.
00:18:53.000 I am at risk.
00:18:54.000 The State Department today issued a travel advisory, not just for Brussels.
00:18:58.000 They issued a travel advisory for all of Europe.
00:19:00.000 For all of Europe. 0.62
00:19:01.000 They're saying they can't guarantee your safety anywhere in Europe.
00:19:05.000 And why would they?
00:19:05.000 I mean, let's look at the list of capitals that have been hit just in the last 15 years by Islamic terrorists.
00:19:11.000 New York, Washington D.C., Boston, L.A.
00:19:14.000 That's just in the United States.
00:19:16.000 There have been terrorist attacks elsewhere, too.
00:19:20.000 One or two people being shot in various places, ranging from Tennessee to Texas.
00:19:24.000 And then in Europe, Madrid was hit.
00:19:26.000 London was hit.
00:19:27.000 Brussels was hit.
00:19:28.000 Paris has been hit twice in the last year.
00:19:30.000 So this is increasing, and it's increasing in scope, and it's increasing in frequency.
00:19:35.000 So people are afraid, and they should be afraid.
00:19:37.000 Hillary says Republicans are ginning up fear.
00:19:39.000 No.
00:19:40.000 The Islamists are ginning up fear. 0.99
00:19:42.000 The radical Muslims are ginning up fear. 1.00
00:19:44.000 Republicans are the ones who theoretically should be able to say, we're going to stop this, because here is our plan.
00:19:49.000 Hillary has offered no plan.
00:19:51.000 No plan. 0.98
00:19:51.000 Other than to hug the Muslims as tightly as possible, and hope they call the cops. 0.98
00:19:55.000 She's offered no plan. 0.90
00:19:57.000 Somebody who has offered a plan is Ted Cruz.
00:19:59.000 Ted Cruz has an even better plan than Donald Trump.
00:20:01.000 Trump says, we'll stop immigration.
00:20:03.000 Maybe we won't stop immigration. 0.99
00:20:04.000 Here's Ted Cruz saying, here's what we actually have to do with law enforcement.
00:20:08.000 We need to patrol some of the more heavily Muslim neighborhoods. 1.00
00:20:11.000 Our enemies are not every Muslims. 1.00
00:20:14.000 Our enemy is radical Islamic terrorists, are the jihadists that seek to murder us. 1.00
00:20:20.000 And it is the heart of law enforcement and national security.
00:20:23.000 To prevent those who are waging war on you from actually carrying out their attempted acts of war.
00:20:30.000 Beyond just having relationships with MAS, having law enforcement have ongoing relationships with MAS, which happens frankly in many cities with the FBI and local police departments in many cities currently in the United States, are you saying going beyond that, because it does sound like in your statement, empowering law enforcement to patrol and secure Muslim neighborhoods
00:20:52.000 I still don't quite understand what that means.
00:20:55.000 It's very simple.
00:20:56.000 It's doing what law enforcement does in any circumstance.
00:20:59.000 If you have a neighborhood where there is a high level of gang activity, the way to prevent it is you increase the law enforcement presence there and you target the gang members to get them off the street.
00:21:09.000 But you're talking about Muslim neighborhoods, not radicals particularly.
00:21:14.000 I am talking about any area where there is a higher incidence of radical Islamic terrorism.
00:21:19.000 If you look at Europe,
00:21:21.000 Europe's failed immigration laws have allowed a massive influx of radical Islamic terrorists into Europe, and they are now in isolated neighborhoods where radicalism festers.
00:21:32.000 It festers and grows, and sadly that leads directly to the kind of attack we saw in Brussels, to the attacks we've seen in Paris.
00:21:42.000 We need to prevent radicalization, and that is by targeting it.
00:21:46.000 And Anderson, I'll give you an example.
00:21:47.000 You know, sometimes
00:21:48.000 Yesterday I was on with Wolf Blitzer on CNN and Wolf asked me, well gosh, what difference does it make if you call it radical Islamic terrorism?
00:21:57.000 Well it impacts the policy dramatically because if you won't identify it, and Obama won't identify it, Hillary won't identify it, Democrats won't identify it,
00:22:08.000 Then you don't act to combat it.
00:22:10.000 And so, for example, President Obama...
00:22:28.000 And they say, well, New York had a program like this and it was shut down back in 2012 and it was totally ineffective.
00:22:33.000 In Commentary Magazine, there was a guy named Mitchell Silber.
00:22:35.000 And Mitchell Silber debunked pretty much all of this.
00:22:38.000 The Federalist has a very good piece today by a guy named David Marcus talking about this.
00:22:42.000 He writes, On criticisms that the NYPD's demographics unit was violating the rights of Muslims, Silber says, Plainclothes officers of the demographics unit were deployed for this mission.
00:22:51.000 They went into neighborhoods that had heavy concentrations of populations from the countries of interest and walked around, bought a cup of tea or coffee, had lunch, observed the individuals and the public establishments they entered.
00:23:01.000 This is an important point.
00:23:03.000 Only public locations were visited.
00:23:05.000 Doing so was perfectly within the purview of the NYPD.
00:23:09.000 On criticisms the NYPD had no real results, quote,
00:23:30.000 That led to the 2008 identification of Abdul Hamid Shahada, which is a New Yorker who was arrested and is currently facing federal charges for allegedly lying about his plans to travel to Afghanistan in order to kill US servicemen.
00:23:44.000 So basically, yes, it was an effective program, yes, it was a useful program, and Cruz is exactly right.
00:23:51.000 Cruz is exactly right.
00:23:52.000 So that's an actual plan.
00:23:53.000 This is why Republicans with actual plans to stop terrorism do better in these sorts of issues than all of the people on the left who keep saying that there really is no problem, let's just ignore it, no biggie, no big deal.
00:24:04.000 Meanwhile,
00:24:06.000 There's another battle breaking out between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.
00:24:09.000 So every time you think that Republicans are about to get the upper hand in sort of the public relations war, because they're right when it comes to terrorism, and Democrats are wrong, they start going after each other.
00:24:19.000 So, for example, Mitt Romney was going after Trump over his wives, and he made a joke about this, right?
00:24:26.000 So apparently, Romney said, Donald Trump has had several foreign wives.
00:24:29.000 It turns out there really are jobs Americans won't do.
00:24:32.000 That's a joke.
00:24:33.000 It's a joke I think I may have told on the air before, basically.
00:24:36.000 And that's fine.
00:24:37.000 Joking is joking.
00:24:38.000 Well, Donald Trump is very upset.
00:24:41.000 He's very upset now.
00:24:42.000 The reason he's very upset is because there's a group called Make America Awesome.
00:24:48.000 It's a super PAC that's mocking Trump.
00:24:50.000 It's run by a gal named Liz Mair, who was a consultant, a political consultant, to Scott Walker briefly before she was fired because she was pro-choice.
00:24:57.000 And Liz Mair put out an ad, a Facebook ad, that was targeted at Utah, just ahead of the Utah primaries. 0.99
00:25:03.000 And it was a Facebook ad starring Melania Trump, who is Donald Trump's wife, his current wife.
00:25:08.000 And it's a picture for those who can't see and are unlucky enough not to have bought a subscription and so can't see this.
00:25:14.000 It is Melania Trump naked lying on what looks like a bear skin and she is handcuffed to a bed is what it looks like. 1.00
00:25:22.000 She's got a handcuff on her on her left hand and it says meet Melania Trump your next first lady or you could support Ted Cruz on Tuesday. 1.00
00:25:29.000 So it's a rip on Melania Trump. 0.91
00:25:32.000 And this made Trump just insane to no end. 0.99
00:25:35.000 He lost his mind.
00:25:36.000 So Donald Trump promptly tweeted out this.
00:25:38.000 He said,
00:25:48.000 And Donald Trump may or may not have meant physical beans.
00:25:52.000 I don't know.
00:25:53.000 It's always a possibility.
00:25:55.000 But Donald Trump, let's take him at his word.
00:25:57.000 Basically, he's saying that Ted Cruz used the picture of Melania.
00:26:00.000 Okay, number one.
00:26:02.000 Ted Cruz did not do this.
00:26:03.000 This had nothing to do with Ted Cruz.
00:26:04.000 It was a super PAC totally unaffiliated with Ted Cruz.
00:26:07.000 It wasn't, like, there are Ted Cruz super PACs that are for Ted Cruz.
00:26:10.000 This was not even for Ted Cruz.
00:26:12.000 It's just an anti-Trump super PAC.
00:26:14.000 Ted Cruz ended up shooting back at Trump, basically, pick of your wife, not from us. 1.00
00:26:20.000 Donald, if you try to attack Hai, you're more of a coward than I thought. 0.99
00:26:23.000 Hashtag classless. 1.00
00:26:25.000 Which is fair.
00:26:26.000 But I want to point out a couple of other things about this.
00:26:28.000 Donald Trump, he plays this double game where he honestly has some of the thinnest skin in politics.
00:26:33.000 I mean, he's willing to hit anyone with a kitchen sink, and that's one of the things his supporters like about Donald Trump.
00:26:39.000 But he cannot take a hit.
00:26:40.000 I mean, for the life of him, he just cannot take a hit.
00:26:43.000 And so let's point out a couple of things real fast.
00:26:46.000 Donald Trump is very upset, very, very upset that anyone would deign to say anything about his wife.
00:26:52.000 I'm old enough to remember just last August when Donald Trump tweeted this about Jeb Bush's wife, right?
00:27:00.000 And it was a retweet.
00:27:01.000 It said, Jeb Bush has to like the Mexican illegals because of his wife. 0.58
00:27:05.000 His wife is Mexican, right? 0.53
00:27:06.000 Jeb's wife is Mexican, and so she must love illegal immigration because his wife is Mexican. 0.89
00:27:11.000 Trump ended up deleting that tweet, and then if you remember, we talked about it at the time, Jeb Bush ended up asking Trump for an apology, and then Trump said no, and then Jeb did what he always did, which is he sort of cowered in the corner and cried himself to sleep.
00:27:23.000 But! 0.94
00:27:23.000 The idea that Trump has never attacked anybody else's wife is silly. 0.94
00:27:27.000 He's personally attacked people's wives. 0.62
00:27:29.000 And how about the idea that people really shouldn't attack other people for posing in sexually provocative poses on magazine covers?
00:27:38.000 Like, particularly on the cover of GQ, for example.
00:27:42.000 Here is Donald Trump on Megyn Kelly at the end of January.
00:27:45.000 It's a tweet and it's a meme and it shows Megyn Kelly in a sexy pose from a GQ shoot several years ago.
00:27:54.000 And it says, criticizes Trump for objectifying women, poses like this in GQ magazine.
00:27:59.000 And then Trump tweeted, and this is the bimbo that's asking presidential questions. 1.00
00:28:03.000 That's what he retweeted.
00:28:04.000 So Trump is all hot and bothered that anybody would say anything about his wife who posed nude.
00:28:10.000 But he was happy to go after Megyn Kelly for posing in a sexy dress for GQ, the exact same magazine that his wife posed for in 2000.
00:28:18.000 Okay, there's another point to be made here, too, and that is that people are saying, well, it's inappropriate to go after Melania.
00:28:24.000 It's in bad taste to go after Melania or say anything about Melania.
00:28:28.000 I frankly don't really care very much whether Melania posed nude or not.
00:28:32.000 She did.
00:28:32.000 I don't really care.
00:28:34.000 It doesn't make much of a difference to me or to my life.
00:28:36.000 It's not a decision I think that betrays a set of values with which I agree, but she's not the one running.
00:28:41.000 So the question is, what does Melania and her posing nude have to do with Trump?
00:28:44.000 What do these two have to do with each other?
00:28:47.000 And the answer is, kind of a lot.
00:28:49.000 So when I married my wife,
00:28:52.000 She's a doctor now, so I married a doctor.
00:28:55.000 And I married her primarily because we shared a certain set of values, a vision for the future, what we wanted for our lives together.
00:29:01.000 Secondarily, because she's super duper smart, my wife is quite brilliant. 1.00
00:29:04.000 Thirdly, because my wife is a lot of fun and I have fun hanging out with her.
00:29:09.000 And finally, because she's beautiful.
00:29:10.000 So yes, the beauty plays a role, just like in any human sexual relationship, beauty plays a role.
00:29:16.000 That's not how it works for Trump.
00:29:19.000 Everything else goes by the wayside.
00:29:20.000 So here is what Trump said about meeting Melania in 1998.
00:29:23.000 Quote, I saw Melania and I said, who is that?
00:29:27.000 She was a very successful model.
00:29:28.000 She was terrific.
00:29:29.000 I tried to get her number and she wouldn't give it to me.
00:29:32.000 Here's what Melania said.
00:29:33.000 Quote, he came to the party with a date.
00:29:35.000 I had heard he was a ladies' man and so I said, I'm not one of the ladies.
00:29:39.000 He said later that he sent her to the ladies' room so he could get my number.
00:29:42.000 I was like, ooh, what a sneaky way.
00:29:45.000 Melania told People Magazine she liked Trump's sparkle.
00:29:48.000 I assume that that's a euphemism for his money.
00:29:51.000 And took his number.
00:29:52.000 Trump, by the way, was still technically married at the time.
00:29:55.000 He was still technically married to Marla May.
00:29:56.000 So he cheated on his first wife with his second wife, and he cheated on his second wife with his third wife.
00:30:04.000 And presumably at some point in the future he'll upgrade his fourth wife.
00:30:06.000 But Melania, like, for him to claim that his and Melania's relationship is beyond... Here's what it says about Trump.
00:30:13.000 Trump is a womanizer and he's a misogynist. 1.00
00:30:16.000 That's what it says. 1.00
00:30:16.000 And you can tell based on his relationship with women. 1.00
00:30:19.000 He used to go around, apparently, according to the UK Daily Mail, calling Melania, quote, my supermodel.
00:30:26.000 Right, so this sort of thing, this sort of pose is what drew Trump to her in the first place.
00:30:29.000 Melania told Howard Stern in 2000, we have incredible sex at least once a day, sometimes even more.
00:30:35.000 Right, which I'm sure is true. 0.98
00:30:38.000 I'm sure that's just, I'm sure that's absolutely true, that they had sex multiple times a day because he's just such a virile, violent, vibrant man, Donald Trump. 0.91
00:30:47.000 Trump told Stern about Melania looking good in a quote, very small thong.
00:30:51.000 So this whole herposing nude thing, it's not a shameful part of the past that it's some sort of hit on Melania to bring it up now.
00:30:56.000 It's an integral part of the Trump brand.
00:30:58.000 It's part of the Trump brand.
00:30:59.000 I mean, honestly, I said to somebody this morning, you look at that picture and you realize that they targeted this to Utah, and Utah then promptly voted for Ted Cruz 55% more than they voted for Donald Trump.
00:31:11.000 And you realize that Utah's a really holy state, because I promise you, they run that ad in California, Donald Trump wins 173% of the available votes, because Melania Trump is a good-looking woman.
00:31:22.000 Final point on this.
00:31:22.000 Okay, the idea that he's gonna go after Heidi Cruz...
00:31:26.000 So he's saying all fairs in love and politics.
00:31:27.000 Look, they can go after each other as much as they want.
00:31:29.000 Some hits are fair, some hits are not fair.
00:31:31.000 On the rankings of fair hits, I don't think the Melania Trump is the fairest hit in the world.
00:31:35.000 I also don't think it's the most unfair hit in the world.
00:31:38.000 I think a fair hit is Heidi Cruz working for Goldman Sachs. 0.99
00:31:40.000 That's not an unfair hit.
00:31:42.000 I will tell you what I think is an utterly unfair hit, and this is where Trump is gonna go next, and that is they're gonna bring up the fact that there was a police report in which they found Heidi Cruz crying on the side of a road in 2005.
00:31:52.000 Why?
00:31:53.000 Because she was suffering from clinical depression.
00:31:55.000 That's an unfair hit.
00:31:56.000 That has nothing to do with Cruz.
00:31:57.000 It has nothing to do with whether Heidi Cruz has values or Ted Cruz has values.
00:32:01.000 It has nothing to do with anything.
00:32:02.000 Clinical depression is a very real issue.
00:32:04.000 That's no more of a fair hit than if somebody had revealed that Melania Trump suffers from breast cancer or something. 0.99
00:32:09.000 It's just, it's a silly, silly hit. 0.98
00:32:11.000 And for Trump to try and trot that one out, which he hasn't done yet, but BuzzFeed has, I think is quite gross. 0.97
00:32:17.000 Now that's the anti-Trump segment of the program.
00:32:21.000 Here's the pro-Trump segment of the program for the Trumpkins who are still listening.
00:32:28.000 Paul Ryan did a speech today that I think makes the best case for Donald Trump that there is.
00:32:36.000 And that case is basically this.
00:32:38.000 Here's what Ryan said.
00:32:39.000 He did a speech and he talked about tone.
00:32:41.000 I am so sick of politicians talking about tone, I can't even begin to express it.
00:32:45.000 The idea that, oh, we used to be civil up here on the hill.
00:32:48.000 We used to be nice to each other.
00:32:49.000 We used to sit around and play cards and be buddies.
00:32:53.000 I don't want you to do any of those things.
00:32:55.000 I want you to go there and I want you to struggle with each other and not get anything done for the most part, unless there's an overwhelming majority support for doing something.
00:33:03.000 That's what I want.
00:33:04.000 Here's what Ryan said, Paul Ryan, who has gone along to get along with Democrats on multiple issues.
00:33:09.000 I know Clavin has a soft spot for Ryan because he's for entitlement reform.
00:33:13.000 That's a good thing.
00:33:13.000 I'm glad he's for entitlement reform.
00:33:14.000 He also voted in favor of TARP.
00:33:16.000 He was one of the leads in terms of the auto bailout.
00:33:19.000 He was the leader in terms of passing through Obama's latest budget, which re-enshrined both funding for Obamacare and executive amnesty.
00:33:27.000 Anyway, here's what Ryan had to say today.
00:33:29.000 He said,
00:33:30.000 Looking around at what's taking place in politics today, it is easy to get disheartened.
00:33:34.000 How many of you find yourself just shaking your head at what you see from both sides?
00:33:38.000 Our political discourse, both the kind we see on TV and the kind we experience among each other, did not used to be this bad, and it does not have to be this way.
00:33:46.000 Now, a little skepticism is healthy, but when people distrust politics, they come to distrust institutions.
00:33:52.000 They lose faith in their government, and in the future too.
00:33:55.000 We can acknowledge this, but we don't have to accept it.
00:33:57.000 We cannot enable it either. 0.97
00:33:59.000 To which every conservative says, uh, Hale and Hardy, screw you. 0.87
00:34:04.000 Seriously, because I don't trust politics. 0.95
00:34:06.000 I don't trust politicians.
00:34:07.000 Guess who also didn't?
00:34:09.000 The founders.
00:34:09.000 That's why they wrote all these checks and balances in there.
00:34:11.000 If they trusted politicians, they would have said, let's put a god king in charge and let him run things.
00:34:16.000 They distrusted politics so much that when they didn't feel they were being properly represented, they went out there with muskets and started shooting people.
00:34:23.000 Right, so this idea that politics is some sort of game of nicety and that it's the tone of politics that's the real problem.
00:34:29.000 Donald Trump's kind of screw you tone is maybe the only thing about him that I actually like.
00:34:34.000 Now, there is a real critique of Trump, but it's not his tone.
00:34:38.000 Okay, I think that some of what he says is way over the top.
00:34:42.000 I do find it off-putting that he's constantly in third grade mode and he never exits it.
00:34:46.000 Third grade mode is fun, it's pepper in a stew, but you put too much in and it begins to become tasteless.
00:34:52.000 Trump's real problem is that he actually disdains the vision of the founders.
00:34:55.000 That's the problem for Trump.
00:34:56.000 He doesn't know what the Constitution says.
00:34:58.000 He doesn't care what the Constitution says.
00:35:00.000 He doesn't believe in delegated powers.
00:35:02.000 He doesn't believe in separation of powers.
00:35:04.000 He believes in Trump and Trump first.
00:35:06.000 That's what the critique should be.
00:35:08.000 And I wish that Paul Ryan had gotten up and said that.
00:35:10.000 I wish he had said, you know, what's unacceptable about Donald Trump is that he divides Americans along the basis of group identity.
00:35:17.000 And that is a nasty thing to do because America is about individualism and opportunity.
00:35:21.000 What I find troublesome about Donald Trump, Paul Ryan should have said, is that Donald Trump is someone who believes that the leader of the nation should have ultimate power just to make whatever deals he seeks, as opposed to there being a give and take and struggle that takes place and an understanding that a powerful government is bad for the people.
00:35:40.000 But that's not what Paul Ryan said.
00:35:42.000 And so long as Paul Ryan is still an advocate for a relatively big government just clothed in sheep's clothing, then I have no interest in what he has to say.
00:35:50.000 I'd rather have the wolf in wolf's clothing than the wolf in sheep's clothing.
00:35:54.000 And that's sort of the problem.
00:35:55.000 That's why there's been this reaction.
00:35:57.000 Paul Ryan, people like him, created the Trump phenomenon because all that Donald Trump is
00:36:02.000 And Clavin is right about this.
00:36:03.000 This is a giant, pulsating middle finger to everything.
00:36:06.000 That's all that Donald Trump is.
00:36:07.000 The problem is it's also to conservatism, which is why I oppose it.
00:36:10.000 If you're gonna throw the bird, at least throw the bird at the right people.
00:36:13.000 Okay, time for things that I like and things that I hate.
00:36:16.000 So, we were doing great scenes, great speeches from film.
00:36:21.000 I don't know if you've ever seen The Best Years of Our Lives.
00:36:23.000 Best Years of Our Lives, I believe it won Best Picture in 1946.
00:36:26.000 Terrific, terrific film.
00:36:28.000 It's about all of these guys coming home from World War II, and how they reintegrate into society.
00:36:33.000 One of the guys who comes home, this is maybe the most moving scene in film history.
00:36:36.000 It's truly amazing.
00:36:37.000 One of the guys who comes home is played by a guy named Harold Russell.
00:36:41.000 Harold Russell won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar.
00:36:44.000 Actually, he won an Honorary Oscar, and I think also the Best Supporting Actor for this.
00:36:47.000 He comes home, and he was a football star, and he comes home, and he's lost his hands in the war.
00:36:53.000 Both his hands.
00:36:54.000 And in real life, Harold Russell did not have hands, so this is real.
00:36:59.000 And he used to wear hooks for hands.
00:37:01.000 And so, he had this girl who lived next door named Wilma, and he's purposefully alienating her because he knows that if she marries him, she's going to have to live the rest of her life
00:37:11.000 Dealing with all of the issues that he has as a guy with no hands, that he can't open doorknobs, that he has to when he wakes up in the morning, he's completely helpless.
00:37:19.000 And so there's a scene where, you know, she comes over and she says, why are you being like this to me?
00:37:23.000 She's still in love with him.
00:37:24.000 And he says, let me show you what my night is like.
00:37:27.000 And he and he takes off his hooks.
00:37:29.000 It's a beautiful scene.
00:37:30.000 He takes off the hooks and he says, you know, I can't button my shirt.
00:37:34.000 I can't do any of these things.
00:37:35.000 Right.
00:37:35.000 I have to have my parents do it for me.
00:37:37.000 He's still living at home.
00:37:38.000 And this is what happens next.
00:37:40.000 It's just beautiful.
00:37:42.000 This is when I know I'm helpless.
00:37:44.000 My hands are down there on the bed.
00:37:47.000 I can't put them on again without calling to somebody for help.
00:37:50.000 I can't smoke a cigarette or read a book.
00:37:53.000 If that door should blow shut, I can't open it and get out of this room.
00:37:56.000 I was dependent as a baby that doesn't know how to get anything except cry for it.
00:38:06.000 Well, now you know, Wilma.
00:38:09.000 Now you have an idea of what it is.
00:38:12.000 I guess you don't know what to say.
00:38:13.000 It's all right.
00:38:16.000 Go on home.
00:38:17.000 Go away like your family said.
00:38:21.000 I know what to say, Homer.
00:38:23.000 I love you.
00:38:25.000 And I'm never going to leave you.
00:38:27.000 Never.
00:38:45.000 You mean you didn't mind?
00:39:05.000 Of course not.
00:39:07.000 I told you I loved you.
00:39:14.000 I love you, Wilma.
00:39:16.000 I always have, and I always will.
00:39:23.000 Okay, the scene actually ends a little bit further on.
00:39:25.000 What happens is that he gets in bed, she tucks him in, and then she walks out of the room, and as she's about to shut the door, she realizes and she leaves the door just a crack open so he can get out.
00:39:33.000 It's a beautiful movie.
00:39:35.000 The entire film is a beautiful film.
00:39:36.000 Great cast.
00:39:38.000 So check it out.
00:39:38.000 The score, obviously, is tremendous by Hugo Friedhofer.
00:39:42.000 Terrific, terrific score.
00:39:43.000 So check that movie out.
00:39:44.000 Actually, Peggy Noonan, who sometimes I like her stuff, sometimes I don't, but she says that she writes to the score from The Best Years of Our Lives.
00:39:50.000 She likes to put it on when she's writing, and I understand that.
00:39:52.000 It's a terrific score.
00:39:54.000 Okay, another thing that I like, Jimmy Kimmel produced a pretty funny supercut of Donald Trump loving things.
00:40:00.000 So Donald Trump, this is not a man with mild feelings about things, Donald Trump.
00:40:04.000 Here is a brief list of all the things that Donald Trump loves.
00:40:07.000 Here we go.
00:40:09.000 I love this country.
00:40:10.000 I love the country.
00:40:11.000 I love the old days.
00:40:12.000 I love free trade.
00:40:13.000 I love my company.
00:40:14.000 I love building buildings.
00:40:15.000 I love what I'm doing.
00:40:16.000 I love hopping around.
00:40:18.000 I love the way they twist and turn.
00:40:20.000 I love NASCAR.
00:40:21.000 I love you potatoes.
00:40:22.000 We love people that faint.
00:40:23.000 I love that sign.
00:40:24.000 I love to bring my people up.
00:40:25.000 I love helping people.
00:40:26.000 I love Howie Kurtz.
00:40:27.000 I love Sheriff Joe.
00:40:29.000 I love my father.
00:40:29.000 I love my kids.
00:40:30.000 I love these people.
00:40:31.000 I love tough people.
00:40:32.000 I love my protesters.
00:40:34.000 I love this guy over here.
00:40:35.000 I love women. 1.00
00:40:36.000 They love me and I love them.
00:40:38.000 I love my life.
00:40:39.000 I love the military.
00:40:40.000 I love great generals.
00:40:41.000 I love the vets.
00:40:42.000 I love the wounded warriors.
00:40:43.000 I love China.
00:40:44.000 China's great.
00:40:44.000 I love Mexico.
00:40:45.000 I love the Mexican people.
00:40:47.000 I love the Hispanics.
00:40:48.000 I love the Saudis.
00:40:49.000 I love Israel.
00:40:50.000 I love the evangelicals.
00:40:51.000 I love
00:40:52.000 The Mormons.
00:40:53.000 I love South Carolina.
00:40:55.000 I love Iowa.
00:40:55.000 I love... Okay, it just goes on for like three years, basically.
00:40:59.000 Yeah, that dude loves a lot of things.
00:41:01.000 By the way, this I actually do love.
00:41:04.000 An avowed white nationalist and Trump supporter has now launched a 24-7 hotline to, quote, help those who are attacked physically and verbally for supporting Trump.
00:41:13.000 There's a guy named William Daniel Johnson, who has spoken of his desire for a white ethnostate.
00:41:18.000 He's an LA-based lawyer, and he has started the Trump Harassment Hotline.
00:41:22.000 And this is for people whose feelings are hurt because anti-Trump people are making fun of them.
00:41:27.000 So, you know, between the burning of the crosses, these white supremacists, they go home and they get hotline calls from people to check up on them.
00:41:35.000 Okay, here's the final thing that I hate.
00:41:38.000 Do we have, let's see...
00:41:40.000 Well, first of all, the Brussels crowd.
00:41:42.000 A couple of quick things on Belgium.
00:41:45.000 One, the Brussels crowd, the crowd in Brussels apparently got together last night to sing John Lennon's Imagine.
00:41:52.000 Mashable tweeted about this.
00:41:53.000 Heartbroken crowd in Brussels gathers to sing John Lennon's Imagine.
00:41:56.000 You don't.
00:41:58.000 You don't.
00:41:59.000 It is precisely John Lennon's imagine that leads to terrorist attacks like this.
00:42:04.000 John Lennon's imagine says it's multiculturalism at its finest, right? 0.99
00:42:07.000 Imagine there's no religion.
00:42:08.000 Imagine there's no God.
00:42:09.000 Imagine there are no borders.
00:42:11.000 Imagine there are no values.
00:42:13.000 Everybody comes in.
00:42:13.000 We just accept everything.
00:42:15.000 There are no standards.
00:42:16.000 And that's how you end up with dead people, because it turns out that not everybody is singing John Lennon's Imagine along with you. 0.99
00:42:21.000 There are just people who take advantage of your stupid John Lennon Imagine ideology to come into your country and then murder you. 0.99
00:42:28.000 It turns out that there are wolves at the door, and when you open the door because you're busy singing Imagine and strumming along on your guitar, they're gonna come through that front door and they're going to murder you. 1.00
00:42:37.000 Okay, that's number one.
00:42:38.000 Number two, there's this NBC terrorism analyst, and what this terrorism analyst, I don't know how you get the job, who is this, Evan Colmer?
00:42:45.000 Yeah, Evan Coleman, that's his name.
00:42:47.000 And he says that his, he has an explanation of how we fight terrorism.
00:42:54.000 This is just the beginning, because we have to get to the root causes of why this happened, and those causes have not been dealt with.
00:43:01.000 There are international causes, and there are local causes.
00:43:03.000 Of course, international cause, there's been a war going on in Syria and Iraq now for going on five years.
00:43:10.000 And that war, in addition to killing hundreds of thousands of Syrians, is now coming in the form of blowback to us here in the West.
00:43:17.000 The second issue is more local concerns, right?
00:43:20.000 Why is it that Muslims and other immigrants in Belgium have such a problem integrating with local society?
00:43:26.000 Why is it that they do not feel like they are Belgian?
00:43:30.000 Why is it that they are ghettoized into these communities?
00:43:33.000 And that has a lot to do with what's going on here.
00:43:36.000 Because again, if you look at the numbers, a much higher percentage of Belgians have gone to go fight in Iraq and Syria than French nationals.
00:43:44.000 And it's right next door.
00:43:45.000 Okay, so we can stop it there.
00:43:47.000 Why are they feeling so alienated?
00:43:48.000 We have to solve why they're being ghettoized.
00:43:50.000 They're not ghettoized.
00:43:51.000 They can live anywhere they want.
00:43:52.000 There are no laws on the books in Brussels telling them where they can and cannot live.
00:43:55.000 They're living in communities they want to live in because they're Islamic communities. 1.00
00:43:59.000 There are many Saudi Arabias and many Syrias in the middle of the West.
00:44:02.000 And the West has tolerated this because they're too busy singing Imagine to realize that there are a bunch of people who don't want to assimilate. 0.98
00:44:09.000 I love how the left, it's really funny, you know, there are people on the left who say that right-wingers, we treat Muslims like dehumanized Muslims, which is asinine. 0.98
00:44:19.000 Every person is a human. 0.95
00:44:20.000 Some people just have really bad ideas.
00:44:22.000 The problem is that the left treats Muslims like they're children.
00:44:26.000 Like, they don't have the free capacity to choose what religious ideology to follow. 0.98
00:44:31.000 And the idea is, oh, if we're just nicer to them, if we give them a cookie, they'll stop wanting to kill us. 0.57
00:44:36.000 The West has been giving Muslims cookies for a really, really long time. 1.00
00:44:39.000 Radical Muslims. 0.92
00:44:40.000 They've been giving them welfare cookies, and they've been giving them cultural cookies, and they've been giving them citizenship, and they've been giving them refugee status, and the result is this, because you have adult, these are adults,
00:44:49.000 And these are adults making the pure decision that their ideology is better than the ideology of the West.
00:44:54.000 And there are some who are saying that they're willing to kill in the name of their ideology.
00:44:57.000 And there are others who are saying we're willing to allow that murder to go forward and not report it to the police because of their ideology.
00:45:04.000 Our enemies are not children.
00:45:05.000 These are full-grown adults with actual belief systems.
00:45:09.000 And pretending anything otherwise?
00:45:10.000 Falling into the mists of Hillary Clinton's happy talk about Islam?
00:45:14.000 Or Barack Obama's happy talk about how America's really the real problem if we're just nicer to them?
00:45:20.000 Sorry guys, you ain't God, okay?
00:45:22.000 You don't control what other people think.
00:45:24.000 I've given a couple recipes for happiness.
00:45:25.000 Here's my final recipe for happiness today.
00:45:27.000 You are not in control of other people's feelings.
00:45:30.000 They are in control of their feelings.
00:45:32.000 That doesn't mean you treat them badly.
00:45:33.000 But if you're doing your best, if you're doing the moral thing and they feel bad, that is their problem.
00:45:39.000 And they're wrong.
00:45:40.000 They're just wrong.
00:45:41.000 People are sometimes wrong.
00:45:42.000 It's not all up to you.
00:45:43.000 You don't have the godlike power to confer on bad people decent thought or decency.
00:45:48.000 I'm Ben Shapiro.
00:45:48.000 This is The Ben Shapiro Show.
