00:00:00.000 the president spoke yesterday and oh he's electric he is electric i swear to you you know online
00:00:23.380 there people saying it's not him man he's wearing a rug this is a imposter wearing a rubber mask
00:00:28.540 no it's not it is clearly jeff dunham's puppet the angry guy he's got the same look as that puppet has
00:00:38.000 with his mean angry eyes and he's like okay um anyway it was electrifying he uh wanted to get on
00:00:46.920 the program and say uh hey israel israel israel we really need to send more money to ukraine and what
00:00:57.580 he's doing is he's tying the two of them together so you know if you if you want to help israel well
00:01:03.500 you have to help ukraine and you have to help ukraine in an even bigger way because what hamas did
00:01:09.700 i mean it might have been vladimir putin you don't know it was horrible then he gave a little tip of
00:01:18.680 the hat to anti-semitism he's like you know there are people who are afraid to wear their their jewish
00:01:24.620 stars around their neck and then he went into stories about you know islamophobia here he is
00:01:32.680 last night from the oval in recent years too much hate has given too much oxygen fueling racism the
00:01:38.940 rise of anti-semitism islamic phobia right here in america it's also intensified in the wake of
00:01:45.040 recent events that led to the horrific threats and attacks that both shock us and break our hearts
00:01:50.640 on october 7th terror attacks have triggered deep scars and terrible memories in the jewish community
00:01:58.780 today jewish families worried about being targeted in school wearing symbols of their face walking down
00:02:06.220 the street or going out about their daily lives and i know many of you in the muslim american community
00:02:13.920 the arab american community the palestinian american community and so many others are outraged and
00:02:20.060 hearty saying to yourselves here we go again with islamophobia wait what and distrust we saw after 9 11
00:02:28.520 just like he's not gonna harp on it a mother was brutally stabbed a little boy here in the united
00:02:34.700 states a little boy who just turned six years old was murdered in their home outside of chicago
00:02:40.040 his name wait was that because of the gun violence or wadiah a proud american wadiah a proud palestinian
00:02:47.340 american family proud palestinian can't stand by and stand silent when this happens no who's saying
00:02:53.380 without equivocation can we stop for a second who is suggesting that we stand quiet while a six-year-old
00:02:59.280 gets killed is there anyone i mean exactly right no one is no no one is suggesting that and that's
00:03:06.400 because you're standing there silently what no i'm not standing there if you're speaking
00:03:12.640 oh yeah i oppose the murder of all six-year-olds i don't know if i needed to be clear about that
00:03:20.060 i don't want them dead i want them to be alive you know what else i want to be alive uh one-year-olds
00:03:25.220 and uh actually uh people who've uh in the in the womb that haven't even been born yet i want them to
00:03:30.160 be alive too it's just a little thing amazing how many amazing how many people we want to be alive
00:03:36.200 isn't it i mean there's a lot i i i don't want to uh just mass murder anybody it's crazy uh you know
00:03:45.620 there's uh also in his speech last night he warned israel not to let the fires of hatred and uh vengeance
00:03:53.580 you know boil over have you seen that stew because i haven't seen that
00:03:57.660 no i think what they want to do is get rid of hamas it seems like they want to set up a
00:04:01.900 demilitarized zone in between gaza and uh and the rest of israel of course israel gaza is part of
00:04:08.940 israel but that's a whole different story uh but uh and i don't know if that's going to actually solve
00:04:13.360 this problem at all i mean that's a whole other thing but i mean like he said in there glenn um
00:04:17.940 you know these attacks uh unearthed memories it had nothing to do with unearthing memories
00:04:24.460 it had to do with a bunch of people being murdered and raped and decapitated that's what it had to do
00:04:28.520 with they were all new memories all these are now memories for the rest of the country that they need
00:04:33.580 to try to solve so there aren't more memories created in the future it's not about unearthing
00:04:38.600 memories it's about brand spanking new ones i agree with that but i tend to um agree with the president
00:04:47.820 on the memories jewish people imagine being a jew today anywhere in the world and you grew up hearing
00:04:55.440 stories about your grandparents and how they there was a program and people in europe or people anywhere
00:05:01.500 were you know saying you know death to the jew and they didn't care and they were gassing them and
00:05:06.580 nobody paid attention and you know you grew up hearing those stories and now you find yourself
00:05:13.720 and the memory of what you learned from your grandparents that that's what he's talking
00:05:19.720 about unearthed all of these old memories of these horrors we thought we were beyond this now we're not
00:05:26.200 and in america um you know islamophobia i i am not afraid of anyone who is in islam i'm not i disagree
00:05:37.780 with their choice of religion but you know if it's a reformed which you know you'd be beheaded if you
00:05:45.060 were part of a reformed part of uh islam uh but if if it's a reformed and you're like hey i'm not
00:05:51.840 asking the rocks to point out the jews um then you know fine cool we live side by side but that's not
00:06:00.500 who we're talking about there's a difference between followers of islam and islamicists
00:06:06.400 we are talking about islamicists and they should be wiped off the face of the earth if you believe
00:06:14.260 that um allah's laws where we do ask the rocks to point out the jews and we throw uh homosexuals
00:06:25.760 off of buildings like they do in iran and um they uh force women to cover themselves except for the eyes
00:06:35.660 but i'm a little quite honestly i think the eyes reveal an awful lot i mean they're always
00:06:42.460 women in their eyes um you know if that's the kind of stuff that you want you have no place in
00:06:49.280 modern society go live in a cave if you have no place essentially if you're uh in agreement with
00:06:55.120 the hamas charter yes then you know yeah that's this is what israel is going to try to solve here
00:07:01.200 and they need to they need to do something about it look you know if it was a terrible and i agree
00:07:07.320 with you obviously like there is such a long history here that there's more to it than just
00:07:12.200 this attack but if what we were talking about were memories they wouldn't be doing they wouldn't be
00:07:18.700 thinking contemplating a ground invasion right now right it's not just memories it's all the stuff
00:07:23.980 together including 1300 other people slaughtered and hundreds by the way including a bunch of
00:07:31.100 americans who are currently being held hostage that doesn't seem to be the highest priority of our
00:07:36.400 country i have never seen a time ever in our history where americans can be slaughtered
00:07:44.580 and then americans can be taken hostage and that's not like the number one conversation in america
00:07:52.720 have you i mean look ron desantis sent out another plane we've had planes uh sent out and coming back
00:08:05.480 i think more planes are being sent out to help bring home americans that want to be here don't want to
00:08:14.140 be trapped in israel our government just can't seem to seem to they don't care no matter what he says
00:08:20.780 well i see you do you do you see us because a lot of us are flipping you off right now what do you
00:08:27.060 mean you see me then why don't you come over and get me why don't you go over and rescue americans
00:08:34.860 who should be rescued what do we pay taxes for how many americans are kidnapped do we think 24
00:08:43.640 i don't know the number off the top of my head it's it's a significant amount of course and that
00:08:49.820 includes that doesn't even count the people who have been murdered in this also americans right
00:08:54.340 this wasn't just israeli citizens and that is that's amazing that neither you nor i know that
00:09:02.860 number that's remarkable we've been talking about this for 10 days and neither one of us are sure on
00:09:12.640 the number why what what what is our president what is our military doing what is a higher priority
00:09:21.100 than that and by the way you know for those of you who had um you know the houthis getting involved
00:09:29.220 uh in the office pool you're a winner today um case you didn't hear the the uh a u.s naval ship
00:09:39.100 uh shot down houthi rockets now some might be saying who are the houthis i'm i'm not going to talk
00:09:48.560 down to you because like you i know exactly the history of the houthis um but i'm gonna i'm just
00:09:55.160 gonna have to explain it to the dummies like it was explained to me yesterday uh the houthis are an
00:10:01.100 iranian uh backed um militant in yemen yeah yemen so these are the people that the united states under
00:10:14.800 donald trump were trying to stop because they're iranian these are the people that the saudis also
00:10:22.480 have been trying to stop because the saudis and iran don't get along and uh the houthis have been
00:10:30.260 trying to destabilize saudi arabia at behest of the iranians so the houthis sent some rockets who knew
00:10:39.840 they even had matches but they sent some rockets up they were headed towards israel or so we say
00:10:45.660 and the uh navy shot them down so we're kind of involved now kind of involved i'm glad we shot
00:10:55.080 them down but kind of involved yeah and those of you had glad they shot them down for sure
00:11:00.800 but we were already involved and we're going to be even more involved as this goes on
00:11:05.980 oh yeah for those of you who had yeah i think we could be in world war three by the end of the year
00:11:12.340 um i mean you might be right you might be right we'll wait until the end of the year
00:11:16.840 but uh you might be right because the way this is now being tied directly to uh ukraine how russia
00:11:25.860 is backing iran how we're backing israel and ukraine the whole axis ally powers thing uh is starting
00:11:36.080 starting to really take shape in a uh well in a firework sort of presentation for us now and by
00:11:44.240 the way they want to so biden ask for what 105 billion dollars um now 14 billion of it i believe
00:11:50.680 are is going to israel and four times that amount going to ukraine that's the current a split uh that
00:11:57.760 they are talking about um and one more note here glenn you uh on on the hostage number um one of the
00:12:04.480 reasons we don't know the number is because they're still finding bodies we don't know how
00:12:08.260 many hostages are there we know that about somewhere over 20 are missing um however the number of
00:12:14.760 hostages is believed to be lower than that uh something like 10 which means uh there may be
00:12:20.960 you know another dozen or more americans that we don't even know where their bodies are yet um maybe
00:12:27.420 they're just missing maybe they got out somehow i mean we don't know but we think about 10 at least
00:12:32.400 this is according to republican senator jim rish says that about 10 of them are actually being held
00:12:38.640 uh actively captive in uh in gaza this is the best of the glenn beck program and we really want to thank
00:12:45.360 you for listening my good friend dr gadsad how are you sir oh so good to be with you thank you although
00:12:52.940 i wish i wasn't uh joining you under such dire circumstances i know i've been i've been thinking
00:12:59.680 about you um and then and i have to tell you get it maybe you can maybe you can describe it i've
00:13:06.920 asked this of several people several of my friends because i don't think i don't think anybody can
00:13:13.040 really understand and i know i don't what does it feel like to be jewish today with the history that
00:13:21.880 you grew up knowing about and the warnings and now you're seeing it in your country in my country
00:13:29.660 all over the world the same kind of horrid talk about the jews what does that feel like
00:13:37.520 well it's disheartening right because as you said i escaped it in the 70s we are lebanese jews who
00:13:44.740 grew up in lebanon where in the middle east the entire world their world is fueled by jew hatred
00:13:50.920 everything is due to the diabolical jew and to now see that exact reality being openly condoned in the
00:13:58.640 west uh is of course terrifying but it's not surprising because demography is destiny if you
00:14:06.660 allow people from cultures where according to non-partisan surveys there is 95 to 99 percent
00:14:14.300 jew hatred in those societies it doesn't take a fancy professor to know that eventually down the line
00:14:20.420 you're going to have you know institutionalized open jew hatred in the west and that's exactly what
00:14:26.440 we're seeing so help me out because i know you're you're much smarter than i am how do we solve
00:14:35.200 the problem for let me i just i'm going to say some controversial things and i don't want to get
00:14:40.880 the taint on you so this is me but um we don't we didn't hate the german people okay i don't hate the
00:14:49.060 palestinian people um uh i have i have known palestinian people i i uh i have some palestinian
00:14:58.300 uh descent that work for me and they're wonderful um however when you're talking about the middle east
00:15:05.340 just those in gaza uh a study that was taken about 10 years ago showed that 20 or how much was it 23 or 21
00:15:16.120 percent of the palestinians in gaza believed that it was okay to kill americans uh um on the street
00:15:26.300 in terrorist activities now if that's the way they feel about americans uh you know that number is a
00:15:32.120 lot higher for jews and we went into germany to stop the nazis not the germans to stop the nazis
00:15:40.760 but we did kill all of the germans uh and we should have killed more of them that were nazis
00:15:48.860 uh and were perpetrating these things until the people in germany said okay i we don't want to be
00:15:54.940 a part of this ideology at all isn't this the same thing we have to go in and kill those who are
00:16:02.740 either silent uh and just don't want to be involved but they're they are involved in their silence
00:16:09.100 or they're actually involved in condone it right well look yesterday i put out a tweet where i said
00:16:15.900 the most dangerous force in nature are human minds because uh you know that that it's it's
00:16:23.000 ideologies that that then fuel horrible historical realities let me put put it for you in context
00:16:29.140 and when i was five years old the president the egyptian president passed away his name is was
00:16:36.540 gamal abdul nasir and as often happens in the middle east people take off take onto the street
00:16:42.240 and they start protesting and as i remember right downstairs from my home people were screaming
00:16:47.440 death to jews death to jews what did the jews have to do with the palace with a egyptian president
00:16:54.940 passing away of natural causes but that's what happened in the middle east let me give you two more quick
00:17:00.080 stories when i was in grade i think it was three or four in lebanon uh the teacher asked people to
00:17:06.940 get up and tell us what they want to be when they grow up so this guy gets up i want to be a policeman
00:17:11.420 i want to be a doctor i want to be a soccer player and a friend of mine with whom i used to play got up and
00:17:18.260 said when i grow up i want to be a jew killer to rapturous laughter and clapping one more story when we
00:17:25.560 finally left lebanon and the air airplane pilot said that we were now officially out of lebanese airspace
00:17:33.200 my mother put a star of david david around my neck and said now you can wear this proudly and no longer
00:17:40.440 have to hide your identity now this was in progressive tolerant lebanon so again the the what
00:17:48.240 we need to do is not so much kill other people but to kill the hate that's in their heart and in
00:17:54.760 their mind if you're a child and you're taught from age zero that the jews are the cause of every
00:18:01.320 possible malady and ill in the world then it's not surprising that they grow up to be jew haters so
00:18:06.780 change people's minds and hearts and hopefully we can have a better future how do we do that how do
00:18:13.520 we do that well we do that by not being tolerant to such dreadful and hateful ideologies right and
00:18:21.740 that was really the point of my previous book the parasitic mind where i talked about a bunch of
00:18:26.360 parasitic ideas that are infecting the west so take for example cultural relativism which is an idea
00:18:32.240 pathogen cultural relativism basically says hey who are we to judge the noble values of the other culture
00:18:40.040 as a matter of fact all other cultures are better than ours we are patriarchal and we're sexist and
00:18:46.540 we're islamophobic and we're transphobic so how dare we judge other cultures who may have really nasty
00:18:52.880 views on the jews or on gays that would be cultural imperialism no there are deontological universal
00:19:00.340 principles it's not okay to hate other people because of their identity and if we agree to that
00:19:05.920 then we shouldn't offer any leeway to the nonsense for example that's promulgated on every university
00:19:12.360 campus in the west right that's that again is allowed under the guise of cultural relativism so
00:19:19.440 it's a very very long war yes we can go into gaza now and try to root out hamas but that's a small
00:19:25.840 drop in the bucket the bigger issue is a civilizational one do you want to tolerate ideologies that are
00:19:33.680 complete death cults if yes then keep going keep doing what you're doing if not let's fight back
00:19:39.320 i mean you have the death cult and it's not palestinian or hamas you have the death cult in
00:19:46.440 canada growing and growing and growing when you will say that a teenager who is depressed uh can get
00:19:54.620 end of life drugs from a doctor and they can end their own life helping them with suicide that's a
00:20:05.560 death cult man that is a death cult that that's not somebody who has a terminal illness um and even
00:20:12.000 then i'm sketchy on that but i mean it's you're up you know i think it's up to you but uh not when it
00:20:18.280 comes to the handicap not when it comes to um uh people who don't have a good quality of life
00:20:25.940 you it's a death cult and this ideology always comes up when marxism is on the rise it's always
00:20:35.700 anti-semitism and death always always and and by the way to be speaking about you know death cults
00:20:43.660 right now from 10 o'clock in the morning to to noon i'm supposed to be in a university
00:20:49.620 departmental meeting you know why i'm not there and i'm speaking to you other than of course it's
00:20:54.480 always a pleasure to speak to you it's because there are security concerns that are looming over
00:20:59.640 me so imagine a 20 in the 21st century in quebec canada a professor does not go to a departmental
00:21:08.240 meeting because of these kinds of realities so what do you think will happen in 10 years from now
00:21:15.060 in 20 years from now in 30 years from now so it is incredible that that which i escaped from the
00:21:20.740 middle east in the mid 70s has come back to haunt me 45 years later it's tragic um by the way
00:21:29.360 um gad i so appreciate your historic look at everything that is going on in the middle east
00:21:35.220 has come out of the middle east if you would just take a couple of minutes and just explain who yusuf
00:21:39.860 al-qaradawi uh was oh yes so yusuf al-qaradawi was the head sunni cleric i mean he would be considered
00:21:48.680 you know you don't have a position like the pope but he would be considered the top islamic theologian
00:21:56.600 in the sunni world which is the predominant sect of islam right there's also shia there's a few others
00:22:02.260 but by far the greatest uh you know most populous sect of islam is sunni islam he was at al-azhar
00:22:10.240 university which is the predominant university of islamic studies in egypt and if you just go
00:22:17.600 and read some of his uh quotes on the jews it would simply baffle you you could not believe it but then
00:22:26.460 as i explained in the parasitic mind all sorts of western imbeciles will come and say yes but
00:22:31.960 yusuf al-qaradawi does not represent true islam oh okay let me get this straight so the guy who is
00:22:38.840 by definition the most knowledgeable about islam he's the top islamic cleric is misinterpreting
00:22:46.400 islam but your friend ahmad who eats pork drinks alcohol and is gay he's the true representation of
00:22:53.960 islam but that's the problem glenn is that there is nothing more dangerous than parasitized minds that's
00:23:01.280 why i lend my voice to this look i i already lead a very stressful life as a professor i could just
00:23:07.780 sit back quietly and live my nice quiet life the reason why i lend my voice is because i know what's
00:23:14.060 coming down in the final station of the train and it's not pretty so if p if good people the people
00:23:20.300 who are listening to your show today don't decide to get up and participate in the culture war we will
00:23:27.060 have a repeat of beirut it might take 40 50 100 years but it is coming for you you can't hide from
00:23:33.460 it dr gadsad i love you man i pray for you and um i uh i just love you and uh appreciate everything
00:23:45.000 you're doing god bless you all right thank you so much cheers okay bye by the way he says um if you would
00:23:51.920 know any of the quotes let me just give you one throughout history this is the chief cleric and by the way
00:23:58.440 in qatar so qatar is the home of um of al jazeera qatar is the one that is funding along with iran
00:24:11.180 a lot of this extremist terrorist stuff and we are quote friends with qatar we should not be friends
00:24:19.180 with qatar this the chief cleric throughout history allah has imposed upon the jews people who would
00:24:28.100 punish them for their corruption the last punishment was carried out by hitler by means of all the things
00:24:35.900 he did to them even though they exaggerated this issue he managed them to put them in their place
00:24:43.100 this was a divine punishment for them allah willing the next time will be at the hands of the believers
00:24:51.020 this is the best of the glenn beck program you know can we go back to the floor of the house because
00:24:59.740 they're they're still voting chip roy is going to join us here in a second but they're voting and
00:25:05.100 doing a call and uh jordan jordan mooney we just had a miller meeks vote um and of course we knew
00:25:15.780 miller meeks was not going to vote for jordan she's one of the people who's been complaining about
00:25:19.340 supposed incredible death threats against her um but uh miller meeks did vote and i think this is the
00:25:26.060 one thing we can take out of this vote is she voted for mchenry she is uh one of many now i
00:25:32.700 don't know how many there's been total 10 maybe that have voted for mchenry um really most people
00:25:38.380 they were voting for either scalise or mccarthy before this so this may be a move by them to try
00:25:43.180 to elevate mchenry as the potential next person or at least in that temp role with expanded powers
00:25:50.220 jeffries i love his fort why not you know okay jeffries listen listen to the way the woman
00:25:58.780 i love it she's disgusted by all of it she calls murphy bergeer jeffries jordan uh nadler
00:26:09.500 jeffrey jeffrey listen to jeffrey's nadler jeffrey's jeffrey's
00:26:15.420 she's just disgusted by the whole process she's like a representative of us yeah
00:26:21.740 jeffrey's jeffrey's yeah i hate all of you but jordan jordan
00:26:31.180 it doesn't matter who you're voting for this is not gonna yeah yeah this is this is not going uh
00:26:36.620 anywhere um this stew brings up that this might be to get mchenry in um we were just saying that
00:26:45.420 uh mccarthy giving the speech for jeffrey's uh might have been not uh jim jordan might have been
00:26:56.860 the uh the play to get him back in uh but now that we see 10 people are voting for mchenry maybe the
00:27:06.220 next the next play is mchenry yeah basically you're sending messages here right if you're opposing jordan
00:27:11.260 here who do you want to go to who do you think is the realistic possibility so i
00:27:15.260 think you know again i think both mchenry and mccarthy are the top two possibilities of what
00:27:20.220 we end up with here though there's still catastrophic outliers apply again if i were
00:27:25.020 the democrats right now what i would be doing is stop nominating hakeem jeffrey's over and over again
00:27:30.940 and getting your 212 votes every single time if i were them and please do not listen to me if you're
00:27:35.980 a democrat right now with any sort of influence turn the radio off immediately but what i would do is
00:27:40.860 find like the most moderate squishy worst republican i could think of and just start
00:27:47.740 nominating them in in was that romney is in the senate and he's out soon so yeah but he might
00:27:54.460 have to go for the second worst well maybe he will step over uh seriously like a mc romney type figure
00:28:00.460 right pick someone like that who's going to be super critical of donald trump and and uh is going to
00:28:06.460 agree with you on 30 40 50 maybe 80 percent of things and and just vote in unison for him you'd
00:28:13.340 only have to pick off a few republicans you get four or five of them who really like this guy and all
00:28:19.260 of a sudden you would get you got it control and this guy would owe you the the loyalties for getting
00:28:26.620 the job i why they don't do that i don't know because they're just stupid or they don't they they just
00:28:33.260 can't they can't pass by hakeem jeffries he's the next guy on the on the list and he's got all the
00:28:38.940 intersectional values we're voting for today but but i'm surprised they haven't at least attempted
00:28:44.940 something like that uh but you know luckily they haven't because i think it might work uh right now
00:28:50.140 though there's there's two mccarthy and mckenrie are probably the most likely guys that are going to
00:28:55.820 get this it does seem like the vote will get worse here for jordan as well that's another notable
00:29:00.860 thing the new york trying to win over the new york representatives does not seem to have worked
00:29:05.820 um and yeah in fact zelden actually has more votes in this in this round than he did in the previous
00:29:12.780 rounds again zelden not running of course to become speaker but he's getting a lot of these protest votes
00:29:19.340 and it does seem like it's going to be higher than the 22 jordan uh lost last time will this be the
00:29:27.980 end i mean i my guess is i don't think he's gonna he was threatening to make people stay and vote
00:29:33.260 throughout the weekend i don't know that he's actually going to do that um it doesn't seem like
00:29:37.180 he has a chance to pull this off unfortunately because i think he'd do a good job uh by the way i
00:29:43.500 got a uh i got a copy of romney's book um the new one that is out uh mit romney and it's a tell-all
00:29:50.940 um oh i know uh and he talks about it he talks about me when we met and he said i i was carrying
00:29:58.220 my bible for some unknown reason and uh and then i sat there and i blubbered that that those are his
00:30:05.260 words and he just looked at his uh staff member as i was blubbering on and uh he just looked at
00:30:12.300 in his mouth never again and uh he hates these these crazy tea party conservatives and then he
00:30:21.500 does a hatchet job on mike lee um there was one race however that romney was following more closely
00:30:29.500 than any other his fellow utah senator mike lee was up for re-election facing off against evan mcmuffin
00:30:35.100 a moderate i'm sorry mcmullen i misread that a moderate independent uh normally an incumbent republican
00:30:41.260 would barely have to open his mouth to win in utah but lee was unusually pop unpopular a former
00:30:47.580 constitutional lawyer lawyer he had ridden the 2010 tea party wave into the senate where he made a name
00:30:53.340 for himself as a rabble rousing wingman to ted cruz when i think of mike lee i think of a rabble rouser oh
00:31:02.620 yeah uh within within the local utah establishment many viewed lee as a showboating obstructionist
00:31:09.740 really really whose penchant for provocation recently uh routinely embarrassed his home state
00:31:20.940 and his religion um man there is so much here uh then in the aftermath of january 6 more than 60
00:31:30.780 leaked tech messages between lee and the white house chief of staff mark meadows showed the center
00:31:34.940 enthusiastically assisting trump's plot to overturn the results of the election in one text lee claimed
00:31:41.660 to be spending 14 hours a day on the effort yeah yeah he was he was doing all the research that he
00:31:47.660 could do and then he was saying i don't see a path here this this is what the constitution says and i
00:31:55.580 don't see a path here but if you want to take it here's what's constitutional and what's not and i've
00:32:01.340 been spending 14 hours a day on this so trust me that's what he was saying um romney thought it would
00:32:11.100 be a long shot to beat mike lee but he had no interest waiting into the race he knew he'd be
00:32:18.940 expected to endorse the republican incumbent but he couldn't bring himself to do it in march he told
00:32:23.820 politico that he planned to stay neutral because both candidates were friends it was a bit of a stretch
00:32:29.740 romney had only met mcmuffin a handful of times and while he knew lee much better their relationship
00:32:35.260 was little more than cordial it was a tidy way for him to stay on the sidelines he figured
00:32:41.180 lee would let it go but he figured wrong as election day neared the polls stayed too close for comfort the
00:32:48.460 national republican senatorial committee was forced to spend its scarce resources its scarce resources they
00:32:56.620 fought a republican with those resources in alaska forced to spend its scarce resources protecting a
00:33:04.140 seat that was supposed to be in the bag party leaders began lobbying romney behind the scenes then
00:33:09.660 a few weeks before the election lee appeared on tucker carlson's show to call out romney's lack of
00:33:15.180 support the host and senator worked as a tag team with a former ridiculing romney and later begging for
00:33:22.060 his endorsement uh this guy is pierre delecto who marched with black lives matter who hates the
00:33:28.380 nuclear family and endorsed the riots i think he's gone insane carlson said it's noteworthy here that
00:33:34.940 48 of my other republican colleagues are on board with me lee said at one point look lee looked right at
00:33:41.420 straight at the camera to address romney please get on board help me win reelection help us do that
00:33:47.100 you can get your entire family to donate to me through lee for senate.com romney was confused
00:33:57.100 why would mike lee draw attention to this uh more than that though he was galled by the presumption that
00:34:03.900 he should automatically support lee with no questions asked this guy he just i mean this is the this is the
00:34:13.020 this is the book for elites if you want to understand elites and how they view the world and how they
00:34:25.580 hate anyone who is not an elite who actually believes in something who believes in the tea party in it romney
00:34:36.220 talks about how oh in 2012 and 2010 he just had to meet with people that his staff said you really
00:34:44.460 need to get on board if you're going to have a mass uh you know wave and you got to get everybody on
00:34:51.820 board you got to meet with these people and uh oh he just didn't want to meet with all the baptists and
00:34:58.940 because they were mean and they just didn't want to meet with the tea party people because they were crazy
00:35:06.620 but he gave it a college try what a jerk what a jerk um uh so if you're elite that book is coming out
00:35:16.620 soon i think so question for you glenn i thought you said it was his it was romney's book but he's
00:35:21.020 referring to romney's but it's a raw yeah it's raw it's a book on romney okay uh okay but it's romney's
00:35:30.220 book so yeah it's a tell-all book right he worked closely with the author in some way is uh the belief
00:35:35.900 yeah that way he can distance himself from anything you know of course of course well
00:35:41.580 it sounds like a lot of fun i can't wait to read it um and let me tell you well it'll be on the it'll
00:35:46.940 be the dusty book on the bookshelf if you ever want to pull it down perfect uh so and it will be a
00:35:52.380 collector's item because i i i imagine there's going to be tens of them sold well nationwide i do hope that
00:35:59.260 this we can finally dispense with this idea that you know what mit romney i don't agree with his
00:36:04.460 policies but i think he's a really good guy you know i think he's a wonderful man you know sure
00:36:10.620 sometimes i don't agree with him but you know what at the end of the day he's a really good guy is he
00:36:16.300 is he if he's out here leaking uh bs narratives about private meetings and um i did he bring up uh the
00:36:25.580 you know the george washington letter you gave him that he never returned did he ever did that
00:36:29.980 in the book no i've let that no i've let that go oh i want to antagonize can i rip at that scab a
00:36:34.700 little bit because i want you to remember it yeah thank you i want you no i i thank you for that
00:36:40.140 uh just priceless artifact that he just uh lost uh but anyway um uh he didn't know i wanted it back
00:36:48.380 i mean it's just how could anyone know that a man who loves america obviously an original copy of
00:36:53.740 farewell address by george washington why would anybody want that back no and why would you hold
00:36:57.900 on to put this right right you're just going to put this here on this table for a while in public um
00:37:04.620 anyway um uh the uh the the other thing you have to uh gleam from this is how disgusted the elites are
00:37:14.700 in our own party by most of the people in their party the hard-working people the people that actually
00:37:22.140 believe in the constitution and the bill of rights they're they're beneath them and they'll sully
00:37:29.820 themselves if they have to talk to them but they're not going to like it this is a really good uh insider
00:37:37.820 view of an elitist if you need any more proof
00:37:42.620 you
