00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk show, my exciting conversation with Bill O'Reilly.
00:00:04.000 I know a lot of you have been missing him on television.
00:00:07.000 It's a really good conversation.
00:00:08.000 Make sure you listen to the whole thing through.
00:00:10.000 And if you want to come to America Fest, everybody, December 18, 19, 2021, it's the largest event in the movement, an event unlike anything anyone's ever seen.
00:00:17.000 Tucker, Kaylee McEnin, Greg Duttfeld, Ted Cruz, Jesse Waters, Jim Jordan, Candace Owens, and more.
00:00:22.000 tpusa.com slash amfest.
00:00:25.000 If you want to meet other people, if you want to get out there, the best money you can spend is on experiences right now.
00:00:30.000 Is really just another pair of shoes or whatever going to make it happen.
00:00:34.000 Hey, some of you say, I want to get away.
00:00:36.000 I want to go on a trip.
00:00:37.000 Well, what better way to go on a trip and then also meet other young people?
00:00:41.000 People say, Charlie, how do I meet a husband?
00:00:43.000 How do I meet a wife?
00:00:43.000 Well, leaving the house would probably be a necessary step to do that.
00:00:48.000 You're like, oh, I'm going to just meet them on some dating app.
00:00:50.000 Yeah, okay.
00:00:51.000 Or you can come to America Fest where there are thousands and thousands of young people who love God, love the country, and they want to meet other people.
00:00:59.000 Tpusa.com slash Amfest.
00:01:01.000 And if you're a grandparent or parent, go buy a ticket for your grandkid and say you're going to Phoenix, have a nice day, and they'll have a good time.
00:01:10.000 So it's not even punishment, it's character building.
00:01:12.000 Tpusa.com slash Amfest.

00:01:47.000 Here we go.
00:01:48.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:01:50.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:01:52.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:01:55.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House.
00:01:57.000 Folks, I want to thank Charlie.
00:02:00.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:02:01.000 His spirit, his love of this country.
00:02:03.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:02:09.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:18.000 That's why we are here.
00:02:21.000 Hey everybody, welcome to this episode of the Charlie Kirk Show.
00:02:24.000 It it is a surreal moment right now for me to be able to interview someone that I grew up watching and that I have a great amount of respect for.
00:02:30.000 Bill O'reilly is with us today.
00:02:33.000 Uh Bill, welcome to the Charlie Kirk show.
00:02:35.000 Appreciate you, me and Charlie.
00:02:37.000 So you have a very important announcement and something very exciting that is coming up, and i'm going to do everything I possibly can to either attend or to watch every minute of this, because I know that this is not just going to be a softball interview, but it won't be a gotcha thing when you do this upcoming tour with president Donald Trump.
00:02:55.000 Talk a little bit about it.
00:02:56.000 I'm so excited to hear about this, locations dates, times and how people can attend if they're interested.
00:03:03.000 Okay, so we're going to be in for Lauda DALE Sunrise at the Fla Live Arena.
00:03:07.000 That's where the Panthers play on.
00:03:10.000 Uh saturday, december 11th, 11th.
00:03:12.000 It's coming up in about 10 days.
00:03:15.000 And then the next day, we're going to be in Orlando with a Magic Play on Sunday, December 12th.
00:03:22.000 Then the next weekend, we're going to Houston, the Toyota Center on Saturday, and the American Airlines Center in Dallas on Sunday.
00:03:30.000 So about eight months ago, I was reviewing what my upcoming book schedule is going to be, what to write about.
00:03:39.000 And I was thinking about doing something on the Trump administration.
00:03:44.000 I've already written the United States of Trump, and that brings us right to when he was elected.
00:03:50.000 But I didn't, my researcher and I go, we don't know anything about what happened in the Trump four years because it was never reported.
00:03:59.000 It was either we want to kill him or we want to canonize him.
00:04:04.000 The day-to-day policies, challenges, interactions never reported, Charlie.
00:04:12.000 So I said, okay, let me see if I can convince him to do some history shows in big arenas.
00:04:20.000 It took me about a month to convince him because this isn't a rally.
00:04:25.000 It's not relitigating the election.
00:04:28.000 It's how'd you get the vax?
00:04:30.000 How'd you deal with Putin?
00:04:31.000 Putin speaks English.
00:04:33.000 What's on Putin's mind?
00:04:34.000 What does he want?
00:04:36.000 Xi in China.
00:04:37.000 That guy capable of blowing up the world?
00:04:40.000 Is he reasonable about ISIS?
00:04:44.000 How did you knock out ISIS?
00:04:46.000 Now, those are important questions I think anybody would want the answer to.
00:04:50.000 So he finally said, okay, we'll do some shows.
00:04:53.000 We put these together.
00:04:55.000 And I think it's going to be an amazing experience for whoever attends.
00:05:00.000 You're going to be mesmerized for two hours and 20 minutes.
00:05:04.000 And so to get the tickets, I think they go to ticketmaster.com for the Sunrise event and the Dallas, Texas event, and for the Houston, Texas one, they go to Toyotacenter.com.
00:05:15.000 Is that correct?
00:05:16.000 Ticketmaster has all four.
00:05:18.000 But look, the easiest way, Charlie, to do this is go to billorilly.com.
00:05:21.000 That's the easiest way.
00:05:22.000 That's what they should do.
00:05:23.000 We have a little box.
00:05:25.000 You hit the box and say, I want this theater, and then we shoot you right over there.
00:05:31.000 So it's so simple, and that's the easiest way to do it.
00:05:35.000 So our audience is obviously full of a lot of admirers of President Trump, but I, and obviously I am as well.
00:05:41.000 But I'll just be very interested, though, to kind of see a deeper dive into his presidency.
00:05:46.000 And so can you explain a little bit further why you think this has not yet been done?
00:05:51.000 You mentioned it briefly.
00:05:52.000 It's either they want to kill him or canonize him.
00:05:55.000 But also, is the media somehow afraid or unwilling that there actually might be a discovery process of a president who actually got something done or knew what he was doing?
00:06:06.000 Why do you think that this hasn't been done yet?
00:06:08.000 Well, there was no drive on the part of the corrupt corporate media, Disney, Comcast, CBS, no drive at all to say anything good about Donald Trump.
00:06:19.000 So then when he started to rack up accomplishments, they ignored them.
00:06:23.000 And they still do that to this day.
00:06:25.000 Just today, the Biden administration announced that the Remain in Mexico policy, which stopped the mass migration into this country, Trump did it.
00:06:36.000 Took Trump almost three years to do it, but he got it.
00:06:39.000 And then, as you know, the first day he was in office, Biden knocked it out.
00:06:44.000 And we've got millions of foreign nationals in here now, unsupervised.
00:06:49.000 So Biden lost in the courts.
00:06:51.000 He has to go back to the Trump policy.
00:06:54.000 But the corporate media, and that's what we rely on here in America, because they have the resources to send reporters all over the world.
00:07:03.000 They have the resources to dig stuff up.
00:07:06.000 They have big staffs.
00:07:08.000 They didn't investigate anything.
00:07:09.000 Russian collusion, not interested.
00:07:11.000 He's guilty.
00:07:12.000 We don't care what happened.
00:07:14.000 I mean, after you can just take it policy after policy after policy.
00:07:20.000 Look at ISIS.
00:07:21.000 That was a huge achievement for the Trump administration.
00:07:25.000 My next book is called Killing the Killers, The Secret War Against Terrorists.
00:07:30.000 So I know what happened because we've just finished writing that book.
00:07:34.000 It'll be out in May, but nobody else does.
00:07:38.000 And that's the kind of stuff that I'm going to direct to President Trump up on the stage.
00:07:44.000 Now, hopefully he will answer the questions and not wander.
00:07:48.000 It's my job to keep him from being Dion, the wanderer.
00:07:51.000 I got to keep him focused.
00:07:53.000 But I think it's going to be, look, let's put it this way, Charlie.
00:07:56.000 You go to this show, you're not going to be bored.
00:08:00.000 I think that is a guarantee.
00:08:03.000 I have to say that.
00:08:04.000 And I just look forward to seeing it.
00:08:06.000 And also, I think he's going to enjoy some of the more difficult questions.
00:08:10.000 I actually think he wants it.
00:08:12.000 I think he wants to be challenged on, or at least play devil advocating it.
00:08:16.000 I just don't think he wants anything unfair, obviously.
00:08:19.000 But to have to defend his presidency, there's a lot there from the virus to the response, as you said, the foreign policy accomplishments.
00:08:28.000 So, Bill, I want to ask you just kind of about the state of the nation.
00:08:31.000 You know, growing up in grade school, I used to watch your show.
00:08:34.000 I always enjoyed it.
00:08:35.000 My parents were huge O'Reilly Factor fans and still are of all your books.
00:08:40.000 But I always enjoyed and appreciated how you're able to cut to what was just kind of the common sense ethic of America.
00:08:46.000 It wasn't conservative, it wasn't liberal.
00:08:48.000 It was just like, here's what common sense dictates or necessitates.
00:08:52.000 Why does it seem that is so rare right now in our country?
00:08:56.000 And how do we restore it?
00:08:57.000 Well, I was at Fox for more than 20 years.
00:08:59.000 When I left, management changed, philosophy changed, and it became much more of a advocacy network.
00:09:10.000 Fox News advocates.
00:09:12.000 That's what they do.
00:09:15.000 Now, I didn't do that, as you point out.
00:09:17.000 I was a problem solver.
00:09:19.000 I say, okay, here's the problem affecting all Americans.
00:09:22.000 Here's how we might want to go about solving that problem.
00:09:25.000 And you'll remember I had people opposite me, liberal people or independents, whatever it may be, and there was a debate flow.
00:09:35.000 You don't see that anymore, all right, on any of the cable.
00:09:39.000 It's like, okay, joining us now is someone who agrees with me 100%.
00:09:44.000 That's what they do.
00:09:45.000 And that's why they're losing audience.
00:09:48.000 And then, you know, there's a lot of conspiracy stuff, a lot of friend stuff floating on in there.
00:09:54.000 So the country is not better served for that.
00:09:57.000 And I'm just putting a plug for the no spin news.
00:09:59.000 I do a TV show every night on billorilly.com.
00:10:03.000 You can see it on the first TV.com.
00:10:05.000 That's our distribution arm.
00:10:08.000 And I have honed the factor now.
00:10:11.000 We only have one guest because I have so much to analyze and so much to get into stories that you never heard of.
00:10:19.000 And, you know, because our, when I left Fox, I took five people with me.
00:10:24.000 And I think we have the best research staff in the country.
00:10:27.000 And we go into stories and areas where the American people have no blanket clue.
00:10:34.000 So the Biden administration is horrendous.
00:10:36.000 I think any clear thinking person would admit that.
00:10:40.000 The Trafalgar poll today says job approvals 36%.
00:10:44.000 That's Nixon territory.
00:10:46.000 Okay.
00:10:48.000 And to me, watching Joe Biden, I don't see a man who's in control of the executive branch.
00:10:56.000 I see a man who's being told what to do and say.
00:10:59.000 So how is he going to solve all these problems that he's brought upon the nation?
00:11:06.000 The inflation, higher prices everywhere, open border.
00:11:12.000 How's Biden gonna do that?
00:11:14.000 So we stay ahead of those stories.
00:11:17.000 And, you know, unfortunately, Americans are not able to get honest information from 90% of their news agencies.
00:11:28.000 And a lot of them are just lost.
00:11:29.000 They just don't know what's happening.
00:11:32.000 So speaking more kind of culturally, it seems that kind of the American people remain in a place where they want, you could call it common sense, but they just want real results for themselves.
00:11:47.000 And it's been an obviously very turbulent and chaotic last couple of years.
00:11:51.000 There's also this massive war on American history, which I do want to get your thoughts on.
00:11:57.000 You wrote a phenomenal book, Killing Lincoln, Killing Patton.
00:11:59.000 The whole series is incredible.
00:12:01.000 What is your personal opinion or your analysis of when you start to see public high schools in San Francisco renaming schools that have Abraham Lincoln on it?
00:12:11.000 Where do you rank the kind of deletion of American history on the hierarchy of things we should be concerned about?
00:12:18.000 So what happened was this.
00:12:21.000 Once the progressive left, the far left elements who want to destroy the fabric of traditional America, once they realized that the corporate media was going to enable them, and that became clear after the George Floyd situation.
00:12:40.000 So once the progressive left said, hmm, we can take this to the limit, to quote the Eagles, and nobody's going to criticize us in the mainstream media with the exception of Fox and a few of the conservative outlets talk radio.
00:12:56.000 So we can run wild.
00:12:58.000 So what we're going to do is we're going to brand all the founding fathers, all of the titans of American history as racist, including Abraham Lincoln.
00:13:09.000 They're all racist, white, supremacist, and they exploited people of color, and that's what America is built upon.
00:13:20.000 Not built upon freedom, not built upon pursuit of happiness.
00:13:24.000 It's built upon racism.
00:13:27.000 Once that narrative was pushed out and accepted by many in the media, look at the view.
00:13:35.000 Okay.
00:13:36.000 Here's a Disney program on every day, coast to coast.
00:13:41.000 And these women on that program are spouting the most anti-American gibberish you could possibly imagine.
00:13:50.000 You couldn't get any more extreme.
00:13:52.000 Now, I've been on a view 20 times when Barbara Walters was there, and it wasn't a crazy show then.
00:13:58.000 Behar has always been a loon, but there was a little balance.
00:14:03.000 Not anymore.
00:14:05.000 AOC, Cortez, she knows she can say the most outrageous things and accuse and demean and demonize.
00:14:16.000 Nobody's going to come after her, with the exception of the conservative outlets.
00:14:21.000 So then a San Francisco or a Chicago or a New York City, those politicians pick that up.
00:14:29.000 And then they start whittling down American tradition.
00:14:33.000 We're bad.
00:14:34.000 We're not noble.
00:14:36.000 We're bad.
00:14:36.000 We're evil.
00:14:37.000 We got to knock out capitalism.
00:14:39.000 We got to change to equity where people of color are favored over white people.
00:14:46.000 Now, that's happened in most colleges across the country.
00:14:50.000 Okay.
00:14:51.000 So once they realized nobody was going to come after them, then it went wild.
00:14:58.000 And the George Floyd case was the linchpin to that.
00:15:02.000 I think that's spot on.
00:15:04.000 And also, as kind of a cousin to that, we are seeing the unraveling of civil society.
00:15:11.000 I'm sure you've seen the videos on the looting and the news reports around that.
00:15:15.000 And Bill, one of the things that you used to do on your show was that you used to zero in on a micro story, a judge or a prosecutor that was just totally completely out of line.
00:15:27.000 Can you talk to our younger audience about what, you know, how you focused on that?
00:15:31.000 And I think that's missing right now, to be perfectly honest, because how many prosecutors right now are just allowing criminals to go loose?
00:15:39.000 Look at what happened in Wisconsin, right?
00:15:41.000 In Wisconsin, the $1,000 bail for Daryl Brooks, and then he ends up getting released and killing six children, some of whom are still in the ICU, by the way, right now and injuring over 60 others.
00:15:53.000 Please comment on that.
00:15:55.000 Well, it's even worse than you think.
00:15:58.000 So this week on the No Spin News, and I'd like your audience just to check us out.
00:16:02.000 I think you'll find a lot of things there that you find worthwhile.
00:16:06.000 One of my stories, and this has been reported nowhere else, was there is a growing subculture of young males between 13 and 26 in America who are sociopaths.
00:16:20.000 A sociopath is someone with no human feeling for other people.
00:16:24.000 So the guy, a 12-year-old come up with a knife and kill you.
00:16:28.000 In fact, in some gangs, that's the initiation right.
00:16:33.000 This is a crew that's now rising.
00:16:35.000 It's like an infection.
00:16:37.000 It's like COVID.
00:16:38.000 And Chicago is the bad ground zero for it.
00:16:41.000 So these gangs, drug gangs, they recruit the little kids because the parents are derelict and the kids are so screwed up.
00:16:50.000 And they're forming little armies.
00:16:52.000 And the armies go around and they kill people, mostly blacks.
00:16:57.000 All right.
00:16:57.000 And they just terrorize entire neighborhoods.
00:17:00.000 Now, the smash and grab that you referred to, these are organized criminals.
00:17:06.000 But the reason they do it in such a bold manner is because they know in California, they can steal $999 and not get prosecuted.
00:17:20.000 Okay?
00:17:20.000 That's the law in California.
00:17:24.000 You can just steal.
00:17:27.000 And the police demoralize across the country.
00:17:31.000 They're going, why should I bother?
00:17:34.000 So these people run in, they cause physical damage to guards and all that.
00:17:40.000 They run out and they sell the stuff on the internet.
00:17:44.000 If the criminal justice system is not going to hold criminality responsible, then you're not going to have a criminal justice system.
00:17:53.000 We don't have it in New York, where I live.
00:17:56.000 We don't have it in Chicago.
00:17:57.000 We don't have it in LA.
00:17:59.000 We don't have it in Portland, Oregon.
00:18:01.000 We don't have it in Minneapolis.
00:18:03.000 I mean, as I said, it's like an infection.
00:18:06.000 And these young kids, they know they can get away with pretty much anything.
00:18:11.000 And so, Bill, you and I might not agree on this.
00:18:14.000 I don't know.
00:18:15.000 I'm just assuming.
00:18:16.000 I immediately go to the place, how could this be anything but intentional?
00:18:21.000 Do you think that it's weakness or do you think it's some sort of a plan to try to have America just be allowing anarchy?
00:18:31.000 The point is that I refuse to believe that it's just, it just so happens in New York, Chicago, and LA that like that there isn't an agenda behind this to almost excuse the lawlessness.
00:18:42.000 Or do you think that it's just political correctness gone wrong, the defund police narrative?
00:18:46.000 It's the same agenda, Charlie.
00:18:49.000 Break down all the institutions in the country.
00:18:53.000 So break down capitalism because capitalism is racist.
00:18:58.000 Break down criminal justice because people of color go to prison more than whites.
00:19:05.000 Knock it out.
00:19:06.000 Don't enforce the law because it's primarily black people who are breaking the law.
00:19:13.000 So we're not going to enforce it.
00:19:15.000 You know, in Chicago, violent crime, the victims, more than 90% African American, the victims.
00:19:26.000 Okay.
00:19:27.000 So these people, you know, somebody wants to go to the grocery store, they're walking their kid in the park, and all of a sudden a guy comes up with a Glock and starts shooting all of this.
00:19:37.000 I mean, where's the protection for these poor people?
00:19:41.000 Where?
00:19:42.000 But the progressive left wants to break it all down and then reimagine.
00:19:48.000 When you hear that word, reimagine, that's what this is.
00:19:52.000 We're going to create another justice system and another economic system and another whatever it may be.
00:20:02.000 That's what they're after.
00:20:04.000 So I think that's so smart.
00:20:07.000 And the word reimagine is used repeatedly by AOC, who you mentioned earlier.
00:20:12.000 It's one of her favorite phrases.
00:20:14.000 We need to reimagine the justice system, reimagine how we put things together.
00:20:17.000 Let me ask you, Bill, I'd be interested on your honest take here.
00:20:20.000 What have conservatives done wrong in trying to push back against this radical left force?
00:20:28.000 Where do you think the conservative movement has failed in this regard?
00:20:32.000 Because obviously, America's more dangerous than it was five years ago.
00:20:36.000 Much more dangerous.
00:20:38.000 So the conservative movement is all over the place.
00:20:42.000 Okay?
00:20:44.000 The progressives are tight.
00:20:46.000 I mean, they have their agenda and there's not a lot of deviation there.
00:20:52.000 But conservative individuals in America, they're not organized.
00:20:56.000 And it used to be when I was at Fox that Fox would be the town hall.
00:21:00.000 That would be the place to go.
00:21:02.000 Not happening anymore.
00:21:03.000 All right.
00:21:04.000 Because of money concerns and a whole bunch of stuff, complicated.
00:21:10.000 So conservatives are frustrated because they see the power shift into the progressive precincts because that's where the media is.
00:21:21.000 So if you're a conservative, you can't get on the air at CNN or MSNBC.
00:21:27.000 Look at their roster.
00:21:29.000 There aren't any.
00:21:30.000 On Fox, you can get on the air and you can have a nice career, but there's no drive there, okay, to consolidate a group to fight the other group, the progressives.
00:21:46.000 And then you guys got like George Soros were literally pouring tens of millions of dollars into the local district attorney races, the local legislature races to elect the most irresponsible far left people they can.
00:22:07.000 There's nothing like that on the right.
00:22:09.000 Nothing.
00:22:10.000 And that's what you're seeing.
00:22:12.000 And I want to remind our audience, and I actually had it pulled up earlier.
00:22:17.000 You covered the George Soros story, I think, 10 or 15 years ago, well before anyone.
00:22:23.000 Please elaborate on that.
00:22:24.000 Soros in the beginning used his open society foundation to go national.
00:22:31.000 All right.
00:22:32.000 But it was mixed results.
00:22:34.000 And when Trump was elected, Soros went, it's not working.
00:22:38.000 Now he's local.
00:22:40.000 So some nut wants to run for district attorney in San Francisco.
00:22:44.000 And literally the guy there is a nut, Boydine.
00:22:48.000 And through a political action committee, Soros will put in $5 million.
00:22:55.000 So who's ever running against him can't compete money-wise?
00:22:58.000 And that's happening all over the place.
00:23:01.000 So Soros, evil man, in my opinion, evil, and wants to destroy the fabric of America.
00:23:07.000 And people go, why?
00:23:08.000 I don't know.
00:23:09.000 I never met him.
00:23:11.000 I mean, he was behind a lot of attacks on me.
00:23:14.000 I know that.
00:23:15.000 Funded them.
00:23:17.000 But I don't know why he wants to destroy this country, but he does.
00:23:22.000 And so, Bill, you're a historian, and I would love your take on this.
00:23:28.000 And I'm not saying this in a way to try to excite the audience in any way.
00:23:33.000 It's a pure and simple question because a lot of people ask this.
00:23:36.000 Do you think, given where we are headed, could you see America heading towards some version of a splitting or a civil war?
00:23:44.000 Or do you think that's over?
00:23:45.000 Do you think that's over-exaggerated?
00:23:48.000 That's not going to happen.
00:23:50.000 The states are going to take on more power.
00:23:54.000 So Biden's main goal is to consolidate power in Washington, to make you and me and everybody else dependent on the federal government.
00:24:07.000 So now it's up to about $45,000 that the federal government will give you every year.
00:24:13.000 You won the supply chain.
00:24:15.000 You won the wipe $5 million left the workforce.
00:24:18.000 If you're shrewd, you can game the system and get $45,000 a year free money.
00:24:26.000 But that makes you dependent on Biden and the Democrats.
00:24:30.000 Now, what is going to happen, in my opinion, is Biden is so horrendous in the way he is governing this country.
00:24:40.000 And if you don't believe me or your viewers don't believe me, name one thing since he's been president, just one, that has improved this country.
00:24:51.000 One.
00:24:53.000 You're right, Bill.
00:24:53.000 So let me get your take on this then.
00:24:55.000 Then why does it seem as if Biden is not adjusting?
00:24:58.000 You mentioned Nixon.
00:25:00.000 Because he's not, in order to adjust, Biden would have to analyze what's happening.
00:25:06.000 It's not what he does.
00:25:09.000 He does what he's told to do.
00:25:11.000 It's not like he's sitting there going, gee, I'm going to go back and the remain in Mexico policy.
00:25:17.000 The only reason he's doing it is because the court said you can't throw it out.
00:25:21.000 But Biden doesn't have any mental acuity to solve any problem at all.
00:25:27.000 Next year in November, the Republicans are likely to have a historic landslide victory in this country.
00:25:38.000 And that will really weaken the progressive movement and the Biden administration.
00:25:44.000 I predict that Republicans will carry both houses of Congress and most governorships across the country.
00:25:51.000 Folks have had it.
00:25:53.000 They don't follow the news like you and I, Charlie, but they know when they're getting screwed.
00:25:58.000 And they know when the guy in charge can't do the job.
00:26:01.000 And that's where we are.
00:26:03.000 So I agree with you that Biden personally doesn't have the mental acuity or sharpness to be able to handle this.
00:26:09.000 But why is that the people around him, they seem to be accelerating the unpopular measures?
00:26:15.000 I mean, for example, the way we pulled out of Afghanistan, the arming of the Taliban, I could go on and on from the OSHA vaccine mandate, despite what the courts have saying, and it's not even popular, to inflation, supply chain crisis.
00:26:31.000 Are they prioritizing ideology over what's best for the American people?
00:26:35.000 And have we seen a president like this in the modern era, a presidency?
00:26:39.000 Forget Joe Biden for a second.
00:26:40.000 Just the people around him, Ron Clain, Gen Saki.
00:26:43.000 I'm struggling with this bill because it's almost as if they don't care that it's hurting people and that it's unpopular.
00:26:52.000 The people who advise Joe Biden are all progressive leftists.
00:26:58.000 There isn't a moderate even close to the White House.
00:27:02.000 They take their cues from Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, those people.
00:27:08.000 And there's a lot of Barack Obama in this.
00:27:12.000 They feel they have one chance to ram these progressive programs through.
00:27:19.000 This is it.
00:27:20.000 That's what the Build Back Better Bill, whatever you want to call it, the $5 trillion massive welfare spending.
00:27:28.000 We got one chance to get it through, but Manchin's not going to cooperate.
00:27:33.000 Okay, that won't get it through.
00:27:35.000 But it's all centered around massive change.
00:27:39.000 And that's what they're gambling.
00:27:42.000 They know they're not doing well, but they feel somehow they're going to turn it around, create a welfare state, make most people dependent on the government, and then they'll rise again.
00:27:55.000 That I think is their strategy.
00:27:57.000 So in closing, Bill, I want to ask about what gives you hope.
00:28:00.000 There's been a lot of different stories that obviously we could go on.
00:28:04.000 We talked a little bit about the crime and all this.
00:28:05.000 What are you seeing that is starting to give you hope in the country that we might have some of our best days ahead?
00:28:11.000 The fundamental character of the American people has not changed.
00:28:16.000 The problem is this, right?
00:28:21.000 This is the problem right here.
00:28:24.000 Because now millions and millions of Americans have checked out from civic responsibility and checked in to the social media world.
00:28:37.000 That is a profound change.
00:28:40.000 But fundamentally, most Americans don't want this crazy progressive socialism woke garbage.
00:28:51.000 So I think those folks are finally going to wise up and mobilize.
00:28:56.000 I could be wrong, but I, you know, I got my finger on the pulse of this country, and I think I have for a long time.
00:29:04.000 But it is not going to be easy because again, the corrupt corporate media is all in for Biden and the progressive left.
00:29:16.000 And they'll fight like hell to hurt people like me, like you, who challenge them.
00:29:24.000 I think that's right on.
00:29:25.000 So the last question, Bill, is you're about to go on tour with Donald Trump, President Trump.
00:29:30.000 BillO'Reilly.com is the place to check it out and to get your tickets.
00:29:35.000 In your own personal opinion, being a friend of the president's, but also an honest onlooker, do you think he should run again?
00:29:44.000 Should is a tough word.
00:29:46.000 He wants to run again.
00:29:49.000 He believes that if it gets reelected, his policies will restore the nation.
00:29:55.000 His policies are pretty good, Charlie.
00:29:57.000 Not all of them, but most of them.
00:29:59.000 They brought a real solid economy.
00:30:04.000 They put our adversaries on the defense overseas.
00:30:08.000 But in order for Donald Trump to be an effective president the second time around, it's got to change.
00:30:18.000 It's got to stop with all the bombastic fighting.
00:30:22.000 He's got to do that.
00:30:23.000 Run on your record.
00:30:25.000 That's what I tell him.
00:30:26.000 That's why I'm doing the show.
00:30:27.000 We'll establish a record.
00:30:29.000 Now, I'm not rooting for anybody.
00:30:31.000 That's not what I do.
00:30:32.000 Okay.
00:30:33.000 But if I'm his advisor and he does ask for advice from time to time, you got to knock out all the excess.
00:30:41.000 Run on your record.
00:30:43.000 Compare your record to Biden.
00:30:46.000 Take it down.
00:30:48.000 And you could win.
00:30:50.000 Well, yeah, let me phrase it a little bit better.
00:30:54.000 Do you think it's good for the country?
00:30:56.000 I don't know.
00:30:57.000 You know, you'd have to have another Republican who rises up, who's got the charisma to go up against the savage media, which will tear that person apart.
00:30:57.000 Okay.
00:31:08.000 I mean, it's so wicked.
00:31:11.000 Trump has that.
00:31:13.000 He can absorb that punishment.
00:31:15.000 I don't know how many other Republicans can.
00:31:17.000 That's a really good point.
