00:03:15.120 that is when we all gather around the old set and we watch the state of the union oh oh the fun times

00:03:24.200 and fun memories that brings back every year i hate that it's one of the worst things ever we it's a

00:03:31.120 it's nothing but a really lousy show it's state-run television that's what that is that's what it feels

00:03:39.080 like it is it is and you know it's like you know it's it's uh like uh you know america's got talent

00:03:45.380 or something like that where you know the outcome you know these judges are gonna hate it and these

00:03:51.160 judges are gonna love it every time it's a giant show and i feel like it's completely inconsistent with

00:03:57.200 the the foundations of our country like we don't revere leaders like this we don't we don't it's not

00:04:04.280 pomp and circumstance here and like i this is the perfect time for trump to just say you know what

00:04:09.620 you're right it's back to a letter i love that i would love for him to do that the constitution says

00:04:14.460 that the president i think it even says from time to time time or occasion yeah it's like yeah i think

00:04:19.780 it's not even supposed to be like every january you gotta do this it's from time to time the president

00:04:24.800 needs to inform the congress the state of the union it needs to say hey things kind of suck over here

00:04:30.840 and a pretty good over there it's always been a letter i think until either wilson or fdr of course

00:04:37.000 i think there was maybe one or two exceptions to that it's an interesting history actually um but

00:04:41.620 they it was never supposed to be it's it was never supposed to be look the believe me it was never

00:04:49.300 supposed to be like this it was supposed to be a basically an actual report of what the hell was

00:04:53.440 going on in the country correct that's it and here's a couple ideas of how i think we could fix it

00:04:57.620 right so it's turned into this giant show and now nancy pelosi as a punishment this is how out 1.00

00:05:03.940 of touch they are as a punishment for shutting down the government says you know what maybe we

00:05:10.160 won't invite you to give a state of the union okay all right please he doesn't need a state of

00:05:17.780 the union the guy tweets and all you do is talk about it for six weeks yeah i mean we we got it we

00:05:22.260 got it oh boohoo now this again hurts us because we've done a lot of planning we've got a really

00:05:31.180 good state of the union uh broadcast with all hands on deck at the blaze eric bowling is in washington

00:05:37.980 with all of the experts we're going to be based here checking in with all of the blaze staff yeah but

00:05:44.040 bad for us good for the country yeah i'm happy great for the country great for the country now the

00:05:50.320 other side of this i'm so i'm can you hear it in my voice i'm kind of excited that this might not

00:05:55.620 happen you know that the president's not going to give up and give that boring speech every year that

00:06:01.240 every president gives and we all hate and i've you've paid me you've paid me for 40 years for 40 years 0.99

00:06:10.700 i have been paid to watch that damn speech i've watched all of them for 40 years i hate them 0.98

00:06:19.920 i hate them you're still paying me to watch it and it's like you this year you know what glenn you 0.99

00:06:27.500 don't have to watch it oh please thank you so part of it's good for me part of it's bad for me but

00:06:36.020 great for america people say we don't give democrats credit when they have good ideas well here's one

00:06:42.700 nancy yes i love this idea wonderful idea this is their punishment i love this okay so if if you

00:06:51.720 decide to do it mr president um uh you should encourage them not to show up

00:07:00.440 now i don't know exactly how the constitution works to where if the president says i'm gonna do it you

00:07:09.700 don't have to show up i'm gonna do it i'm gonna do my constitutional duty i think it would be even

00:07:15.440 more fun if they didn't show up it's doing it in empty or that would be very it might the optics of

00:07:22.080 that might feel a little weird like doing it just for the gop yeah who do you think wins right yeah

00:07:27.620 for the gop they'd all do you think we're showing up to do our we're showing up to do our job i just

00:07:34.340 said the speech in the empty room is what i was picturing but you're right if the gop shows up 1.00

00:07:37.500 they're gonna be clapping for everything oh my gosh can you imagine if if if donald trump if

00:07:43.020 donald trump had ronald reagan's skill no president has had ronald reagan's skill but if donald trump

00:07:50.000 had ronald reagan's skill in an empty chamber just to walk in and himself go uh uh mr speaker

00:08:01.040 the president of the united states and then they open up the doors and it's just him and he's just

00:08:08.000 walking down he's got a lapel microphone and he just starts talking to the american people as he's

00:08:12.940 walking down that aisle and just says look the government is closed because we can't do we can't

00:08:20.860 do uh we can't get our act together on the border we can't do things that will protect you so

00:08:27.500 nobody showed up but you know what this is supposed to be a letter anyway to the to uh to congress so i

00:08:36.380 wrote them a letter i don't know if they're ever going to read it because they don't really read

00:08:39.780 stuff around here i don't know if you've noticed that but i just wanted to sit and talk to you for

00:08:45.180 a minute and then don't go behind that podium just sit in one of the chairs that they normally sit in

00:08:51.800 just don't don't sit with the american flag or just kind of prop yourself up next to that podium

00:08:57.480 and just say so listen i'm gonna only keep you for five minutes this one has to happen that would

00:09:05.520 be epic and then the five minutes should be about term limits all these people who didn't even bother

00:09:12.340 to show up to do their jobs today all of them should be out get them out of here they can't sit

00:09:17.660 here and we're not gonna pay for the next hundred years like they easily want in fact don't even talk

00:09:22.080 about the border don't talk about anything yeah just say look i'm only going to keep you for five

00:09:26.800 minutes we can't get some common sense stuff down that you know and and honestly your neighbors who

00:09:33.000 are democrats they know it too and they're sick of this and i've seen the polling there should be

00:09:39.640 term limits there's term limits on me on the president because nobody should have that much power for that

00:09:44.440 long these people some of these people have been here since 1973 now ted cruz has put together a

00:09:50.780 deal and with your help with your help if i said this in front of them you know half the room would

00:09:57.100 stand up and applaud the other half would uh would sit stoic and if the last president would have

00:10:03.620 proposed what i'm proposing they would have switched sides but you want you know one thing it wouldn't

00:10:09.260 happen it wouldn't happen because it's a restriction on them so i'm just asking you let's get this done

00:10:17.780 yeah it's among the most popular thing that is in public opinion i mean it's something like 83 percent

00:10:26.200 of people agree with term limits for congress uh you know it's 80 it's it is more popular among

00:10:31.980 republicans by a decent margin than the border wall is that's how popular term limits are and you're

00:10:37.760 also getting in the mid 70s of democrats who agree with it talking about getting people who could

00:10:43.340 you know and i think cruises is worded i believe three terms in congress and two terms in the senate

00:10:48.500 and then you're done that's enough that's you're there for it that's already 18 years yeah and you

00:10:53.680 could still run for president afterwards yeah and there's plenty of opportunity i don't even think

00:10:57.960 it should be that long for that 18 years i mean he's he's i think being pragmatic here and saying you

00:11:03.960 know if you make it too short no one's gonna vote for it but still 18 years is plenty of time for you

00:11:08.920 to be in the government i mean your working life is from 20 to say eight you know 70 i'm sorry you're

00:11:14.340 talking about 20 to 60 this is talking about your half your working life this is one problem we do have

00:11:19.980 with the constitution and that is the constitution was not written for a congress that was seated year

00:11:26.620 round the constitution was written for a congress that showed up in the summer and did a couple months

00:11:31.060 of work and then left and went and did real jobs and did real jobs yes okay um they should not have

00:11:37.520 the power over their own salary and over their own jobs i mean look the president you think the

00:11:43.420 president would have ever said yeah you know what term limits on me right there needed to be someone

00:11:48.860 who enforced on the outside right right why are we expecting these people who who would say you know

00:11:55.760 what i know i i'm here and i'm doing a great job right now and inside you know i'm really not doing

00:12:02.460 a great job right now uh but you say to your boss i'm doing a great job right now but you know what

00:12:07.800 in 10 years you should fire me no one would say that and you know every time you bring up term limits

00:12:15.420 there's somebody who says well you know they the problem is that lobbyists will be in control

00:12:20.940 have you watched washington lately what do you think's happening now these people are have made

00:12:25.460 40-year relationships with lobbyists who are writing the bills for them at least it would be new people

00:12:31.400 they had to convince again this is the best of the glenbeck program

00:12:39.480 the toxic femininity problem in america is it actually an issue by the way if you're hearing

00:12:52.940 hammering in saws it's actually four stories above me uh we've had to uh replace the roof of our studio

00:13:01.200 complex and it's it's a massive complex it's going to take us about 90 days and uh uh and so

00:13:09.460 you will hear things in the background unfortunately i apologize for this it's not jeffy having a

00:13:15.440 moment yeah i know last night we were doing uh one of the shows and it sounded like we had piled a

00:13:20.600 bunch of you know lactose intolerant elephants up on the roof uh but anyway um toxic femininity 1.00

00:13:28.760 there is a there's an article on medium that talks about from a woman who says if i got a group of my

00:13:38.180 friends together and they they all talked about uh the truth they would all answer yes to most if not

00:18:43.240 to admit to it yourself right that's all right okay uh next one uh have you or anyone in your

00:18:50.340 circle of friends over your life uh thought you were at liberty to do some sort of uh coercing

00:18:55.500 because men always wanted and should feel lucky anytime they get it no that's number one

00:19:02.080 number two yes number three

00:19:07.760 come on absolutely absolutely absolutely hands down

00:19:19.900 up a podcast number four i don't understand the question could you yes go ahead so uh the uh if you

00:19:28.600 then a lot of this goes back to the coursing if you don't know anyone who's ever coerced someone

00:19:32.020 or you know plot you kind of prodded them into sex even though you weren't sure they were

00:19:36.160 necessarily that much into it did you justify that as uh you know men always wanted and they 0.65

00:19:41.440 should be lucky anytime that they get it

00:19:43.060 yes okay number five no six yes seven yes eight seven and four seven and three should never get

00:20:15.040 no not so much okay and number 11 absolutely

00:20:20.380 wow okay that was one of those that i thought

00:20:24.660 no no i mean i can't i mean i could see it occasionally what was the score on that was

00:20:29.700 six out of the 11 said yes to that six out of the 11 um okay uh next up have you or you can

00:20:36.280 absolutely blame someone else in your circle of friends if you've ever uh threatened to harm

00:20:40.340 yourself if a brand a man breaks up with you or doesn't want to see you anymore do you remember

00:20:44.660 this from high school or college you or someone else number one no way number two oh at the right

00:20:55.240 age of 15 yes number three not a chance number four no five no never six that was i just did that last

00:21:09.820 week

00:21:10.200 number seven no eight no way nine hell no but i had it done to me

00:21:21.540 10 by a woman or by a man by a man okay uh number uh i did 10 11

00:21:30.080 no no man's that important good for you actually skip 10 oh did i skip 10 number 10

00:21:37.000 i've known a couple people yes yeah okay let's see what happened to 12

00:21:41.760 oh do we have 12 you said you did oh well we only have 11 i'm looking up and i thought we had 12 but

00:21:49.240 we only have 11 okay next what now these are going to get uh they can they can be these can

00:21:53.600 be harsh again think about back in your life the friends that you've had maybe made

00:21:57.760 questionable choices i know we've all had these friends but this is we're going to get a little

00:22:01.580 tough here um any of these people that you've known in your life been physically abusive with a

00:22:06.280 male partner knowing you'd be unlikely to face any legal consequences

00:22:09.860 wow oh never okay there's number one number two no three yes

00:22:18.360 well i won't ask that's not you you're not your role here is that i know i know i know number four

00:22:25.340 no five no never six just pushing them down the stairs count yes it does six uh seven

00:22:37.740 i do know one person yes uh eight i know one person saw the evidence after it was over yes

00:22:46.700 nine does it count if you've been drinking yes it does yes said the judge yes uh number uh that

00:22:57.260 was number nine nine number ten number nine what did you say number ten i know we're anonymous but

00:23:03.500 it was not me but i do know someone okay number eleven yes wow wow that was a lot higher than i

00:23:12.120 expected uh okay two more guys and you're doing a great job uh blaming all your friends for everything

00:23:16.600 i know uh okay have you or anyone in your circle of friends uh lied about being on birth control or

00:23:23.020 faked a pregnancy scare to see how a man would respond absolutely not okay number two absolutely not

00:23:32.740 three never four no five yes okay six nobody has friends because i this is what i feel is common

00:23:45.760 yeah i know somebody who's done this i would have said this one was 15 out of 11 yeah me too uh

00:23:51.300 where are we at number six yeah i had a friend that did that one uh number seven

00:23:55.580 no eight no way nine good lord no 10 quite a few actually yeah 11 yes i mean i thought that would

00:24:11.460 be a lot higher yeah this is so common it even happened on the documentary the office uh it wasn't

00:24:16.440 a documentary and then finally uh okay this is again you or your circle of friends uh has any of

00:24:23.480 have every of them ever manipulated a divorce or a child custody dispute in your favor or in their

00:24:28.720 favor uh by falsely insinuating that a man had been abusive to you or your child again your circle

00:24:34.940 of friends would count in this as well after 41 years no way you have good friends uh number two no

00:24:42.420 three not for me and truly not for anybody i know four

00:24:48.580 i say no but i bet the liberals will answer these questions much differently than us uh yeah

00:24:56.000 you know i was i was just thinking that i think with a younger group it may be different with those

00:25:03.780 under 35 uh and also i think with uh with a a group of different you know set of values uh okay so

00:25:57.360 femininity exists ladies you can just yes yeah absolutely 1.00

00:26:03.080 all right all right all right ladies it was a yes or no question this isn't a party line 0.79

00:26:15.420 please define for me what is toxic femininity i think that i think the things the things that 0.99

00:26:25.740 they're saying about toxic masculinity that there are guys that are jerks and will use

00:26:32.540 they're self-centered they'll do whatever they want to get what they want i think that is not a 0.99

00:26:38.600 male problem it's like racism it's a human problem yeah i agree absolutely over the age of 40

00:26:46.120 full sentences will not work in this format we got a break but thank you that was great ladies hang on

00:26:52.920 the phone i want to send each of you give the producer your name i want to send each of you an

00:26:56.980 autographed uh copy of my new book uh but thank you for being on

00:27:00.640 you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program

00:27:06.940 like listening to this podcast if you're not a subscriber become one now on itunes

00:27:16.140 but while you're there do us a favor and rate the show steve dace has put out a new book called truth

00:27:21.720 which uh steve the reaction to truth bombs do people want the truth

00:27:30.260 yes and no i i think where we're at now um you know with with trump listening to conservative media

00:27:40.580 and going back to his original pledge not to sign another continuing resolution enforcing this

00:27:47.220 confrontation and watching how the republican party never wanted this confrontation in mass

00:27:52.660 whatsoever yes i think the timing of that is almost serendipitous to providential because i think

00:27:59.640 there's a new audience for the message of this book glenn that probably wouldn't have existed even six

00:28:04.680 months ago yeah i think that um while there's lots of things that donald trump has done that we

00:28:10.580 like we never really got to the root of the problem that the republican party they didn't want to

00:28:16.360 they none of them wanted to get rid of obamacare none of them really wanted to do anything about

00:28:21.560 the border it's just a game that they continue to play with us over and over and over again

00:28:26.760 and they usually have no spine but because donald trump listens to the people i think um he has stood

00:28:35.100 strong on this and knew i'm toast if i don't and i think it's opening up a whole new world

00:28:40.680 when i wrote this book i you know i i did it i wanted to minimize trump's role in this in this

00:28:47.960 drama intentionally because i don't i don't think the cake has changed you know i say this on my

00:28:52.820 daily show on the blaze all the time the cake is still the same we just have this zany new frosting

00:28:57.640 on top of it called trump right the same political cake that it's always been and and so i spent one

00:29:02.840 chapter in the book i go into all of my history with trump how he tried to woo me to support him

00:29:07.220 early in his presidential run and i did that on purpose because one of the major themes in this

00:29:11.760 book is trump is neither the problem nor the solution he is the symptom the frankenstein's

00:29:18.080 monster doesn't create itself if trump is everything his detractors claim he is he can only be in the

00:29:25.260 position he is in right now if the system is everything guys like you and i were saying it was

00:29:30.760 before trump ever came down that escalator he exploited what the system has become to his own

00:29:37.500 advantage and he speaks for a base of people you know for most of his adult and in public life

00:29:42.960 trump has been one of the fair-haired set and and now he's watched as they've turned on him they did

00:29:49.060 the jay-z's the lebrons the snoop dogs the people that couldn't wait to get their picture taken with 1.00

00:29:54.180 him before the minute he put an r after his name and spoke directly to the values of mainstream america

00:29:59.740 and whether he did it because he believed it or political opportunism or a little bit of both

00:30:04.140 it didn't matter once he provided a platform to mainstream america suddenly all these people

00:30:10.140 turned on him because it isn't about trump it's about the hatred for the base of everyday americans

00:30:15.660 that he represents and and the only in my 10 plus years of working full-time in political activism

00:30:20.920 on campaigns from president to school board i've learned one truth among many that stands above the

00:30:27.160 rest and that's this the only political party in america that hates everyday americans conservatives

00:30:33.280 orthodox religious believers more than the democrats are the republicans

00:30:37.840 what makes you say that look at the way they behave and in this book i knew people were going to ask

00:30:47.540 questions when i made statements like that so there's 10 pages of footnotes in this book there's

00:30:52.040 over 140 footnotes in this book uh to borrow a biblical phrase so that no one is with no one is

00:30:58.160 without or no one has an excuse okay so the reality is look at the way they behave in fact let's just go

00:31:04.100 to the i could point out primaries how they always come out harder after us than they do democrats

00:31:08.740 but let's just look at what mit romney did the day he arrived in washington as a would-be senator

00:31:13.860 before he was sworn in so so this is a guy that goes to work every day in the senate and and and

00:31:19.780 surrounding him are people who think it's a great idea and enlightened to take a pair of forceps

00:31:24.740 shove them up a woman's uterus uh essentially attach them to the skull of her child penetrate it 1.00

00:31:31.420 smash it so they then can vacuum out the baby's brains and the rest of its parts limb by limb

00:31:36.680 and and now his his concern uh is is trump's he has nothing to say all those problems that all those

00:31:43.700 people represent uh he's silent but now trump's problems are the ones that he needs to address

00:31:49.220 immediately in the pages of the washington post trump's moral problems are well documented but

00:31:55.400 the reality is trump's moral problems right now aren't getting in the way of you and me earning

00:32:00.200 a paycheck or living in a society that is worthy of passing on to our children people that want to

00:32:05.720 suck the brains out of little babies their lack of integrity and their moral problems they're the 0.99

00:32:10.240 ones getting in the way of that and so here we see mit romney in the last two weeks has gone harder 0.99

00:32:15.300 after donald trump than he did the entire final six months of the general election campaign go after

00:32:20.720 barack obama and we have seen this pattern over and over again because democrats inspire their base

00:32:26.840 to get what they want glenn republicans conspire against their base to get what they want the

00:32:32.200 republicans want to beat democrats in elections just not for the same reasons we want to beat them

00:32:37.000 and in the end if the choice is losing the democrats or losing control of the republican party

00:32:41.760 they will choose losing the democrats and i'll make one final point on this look at the never trump

00:32:46.480 thing that you and i were originally part of so most guys like you me shapiro erickson there was a

00:32:52.140 group of us who like this guy's moral problems are way too high to gamble that he'll provide any

00:32:57.940 conservative return on investment whatsoever it's not worth risking the capital well what we're finding

00:33:03.280 out now that trump has actually moved more to the right than we ever thought as president

00:33:06.780 look at the bill crystals look at the people that populate cnn and msnbc and what you're going to

00:33:12.000 find is with their complaints about trump's boorish behavior were a camouflage a cover most of our old

00:33:18.580 never trump movement were people that were actually never conservative

00:33:21.500 i would agree with you um on that wholeheartedly and you know um because those people will not say

00:33:32.400 anything good about him if look my concerns and i said this on the air my concern was i don't think

00:33:39.560 he's going to do any of these things because he's never shown a willingness to stand up to those kinds

00:33:46.140 of things and stand up and fight for him that's not who he's ever been but he is listening he is i will

00:33:53.500 tell you this i think this president um it might be the biggest servant president we have had

00:34:03.900 in in the last 20 years perhaps maybe george bush but what i mean is and no i can't even say george bush

00:34:12.140 listening listening to the people who voted for him i don't think he wanted to shut down the government

00:34:20.360 i don't think he wanted to do all of this that wasn't his first instinct but he saw the writing

00:34:25.520 on the wall and he realized that's not that's what they put me in for okay i'm gonna stand and you know

00:34:32.960 the people are telling him every day you're losing your shirt i don't think he is i think he's actually

00:34:38.060 i think he's actually winning because no one has ever stood with the people against the system

00:34:47.980 i agree with that and you know i've said this before let me say it again and since reagan left

00:34:56.660 the national stage and reagan left the national stage in january of 1989 i was not yet legal to

00:35:03.420 get a driver's license and i have a senior in high school oldest child right now and so we're still

00:35:08.240 talking about reagan and that's a generation before even al gore invented the internet to tell you

00:35:13.720 and i bring that up to point out that what you and i are talking about is true because i would

00:35:18.080 argue since reagan left the national stage for all his faults and i don't hide from any of trump's

00:35:23.140 faults i don't know what in the same hill rudy giuliani was doing on cnn last night i don't know

00:35:27.400 what that was okay i don't know why he hired guys like paul monafort who were complete uh you know

00:35:33.380 putin clowns i don't know the answers to those questions but here's what i do know the only republican

00:35:38.300 in a leadership position in the last 25 years that has even been the slightest sensitive to sympathetic

00:35:45.200 to the core concerns of the average republican base voter is donald trump not the two bushes that

00:35:51.660 were president not mckin not mick romney uh you know the previous two presidential nominees not

00:35:57.600 mcconnell not mccarthy not scalise not paul all we did with paul reiner and john boehner glenn we

00:36:03.280 traded a chain smoker for a crossfitter but we got everything else so he's the only guy that cares

00:36:09.160 what we think for all and this is why if you're wondering why are people so loyal to him there is

00:36:14.380 a political cult aspect to it and all politicians have it and i've talked about that too but a lot

00:36:19.240 of it is as we just saw before christmas if rush limbaugh goes on the air and and and trashes

00:36:25.360 kevin mccarthy he's not doing a dang thing he did it to he did it to donald trump and dude and dude

00:36:30.960 said you know what we're gonna have to reverse course here he's the only one who cares what we

00:36:34.480 think glenn he's the only one i i agree with you steve i actually agree with you i don't think

00:36:40.280 donald trump is is the leader in the traditional sense but i don't think that necessarily that's what

00:36:47.480 america wants anymore right now they want someone who will listen to them because i think the common

00:36:55.420 sense of the average person is better than any leader that i have found and uh for all of his

00:37:01.780 faults he is listening to his his people and to america and i i think that with all of his faults

00:37:10.860 that's exactly what we may need at this time to be able to save the republic let's go over uh i i think

00:37:19.280 your book is really important because we have to prepare ourselves for 2020 and 2024

00:37:24.960 um and i think these parties are imploding but people will say i've and you cover this in your

00:37:33.840 book you gotta vote for the the republican you know it's too hard for a third party and you take

00:37:39.980 those things apart start with a third party the number one reason we don't have a third party

00:37:47.160 and there's other reasons i didn't say it was the only one but the number one reason we don't

00:37:51.220 is there's just too much damn money to be made shilling and pimping the republican party that's why

00:37:55.760 uh and that's just the reality careers get made um uh food gets put on the table uh there are whole

00:38:02.900 people that um what's this is i'm thinking of uh is it manu rajay i believe is his name he's

00:38:09.500 essentially mitch mcconnell's stenographer and he essentially walks into mitch mcconnell's office

00:38:13.820 he tells him what to write what to say what today's lead is from gop senate leadership and

00:38:18.040 that's a quote-unquote story and this goes on and we have too many conservative blogs that are

00:38:23.380 essentially uh facsimiles and stenographers for certain donor blocks of the republican party or

00:38:29.200 factions of the gop and this is devolved into the click servitive uh you know notion that we've seen

00:38:35.460 in the last few years there's just too much money to be made and maintaining the status quo and that's

00:38:41.600 why you know one of the things i one of the examples when i knew we were screwed is i was on

00:38:47.340 the air every night in louisville on my old syndicated show live and i had matt bevin on my show

00:38:53.040 all the time when he was trying to primary mitch mcconnell and at that time i was doing a lot i was

00:38:58.620 doing a lot of interviews as kind of your token conservative on msnbc panels and stuff and we would

00:39:03.580 talk about this primary all the time and i'm like i think bevin's gonna win i mean everybody hates

00:39:08.060 mcconnell bevin's you know got his own money to spend he's he's well known he's a great candidate

00:39:12.600 and he's such a good candidate he's the governor of kentucky now we got to primary night several

00:39:17.580 friends of mine worked on this campaign so i knew what was going on on the inside we get to primary

00:39:21.800 night and you look at the turnout now kentucky's the state where i think twice in the last 20 years

00:39:26.060 the democrat nominee for president didn't even get 40 percent of the vote statewide in a presidential

00:39:30.980 election it's pretty red state we get to primary night and more people voted in the democratic

00:39:36.180 senate primary been voted in the republican senate primary that night despite all the media attention

00:39:42.180 except you know where all the media attention was on cnn and msnbc which our base doesn't consume

00:39:46.920 you went i went and i went and googled fox i went to foxnews.com i googled matt bevin

00:39:51.700 mcconnell got like no results we just never talked about it it never shows up on the front page of drudge

00:39:57.640 and so here we are with a vastly superior candidate to mcconnell not some local yokel who believes in

00:40:03.560 chemtrails a guy who's the freaking governor of the state right now okay and we couldn't turn out

00:40:09.240 our voters because they didn't even know he existed glenn and this is this is why we we can't ever beat 0.63

00:40:16.200 these guys in these primaries this is why whoever tells you hey we're going to launch a 10-year war to

00:40:21.340 take back the republican party you know one of my good friends is one of the original donors of the

00:40:25.840 gop from the old sharon statement he's been he once told me steve i've been fighting for you know we've

00:40:31.100 been fighting for taking over the republican party for 50 years and i told him brother with all good

00:40:34.440 respect i don't want to do this for 50 years and the country doesn't have 50 years so the biggest

00:40:40.340 problem we have is this corporate america has turned against us in the last generation there aren't

00:40:45.500 any more lee iacoccas anymore who either supported our values or were willing to fund them because they 0.99

00:40:50.300 understood that democrats were terrible for their economic model what's happened now is youth soccer

00:40:54.920 economics have taken over wall street progressivism is in every boardroom they're now funding all the

00:41:00.080 cultural causes we're against and they've decided you know what instead of fighting big government we

00:41:04.400 just buy it off and they make you buy our health insurance if we do that well i will tell you this

00:41:08.440 um that started uh because of reagan in i think it was 1986 or 88 uh with the tides foundation that was

00:41:19.180 their goal they learned through reagan we've got too many people in boardrooms that are conservative we

00:41:26.040 have too many people running companies that are conservative we need to get people at the highest

00:41:31.900 echelons of of corporate america and take over from from there and they've done it and they did it

00:41:40.420 effectively and anytime you ever talk about it it's a conspiracy theory but it's well documented that's

00:41:46.920 what they set out to do when you talk to republicans about that they want nothing to do with it they're

00:41:52.720 like that that won't work and i'm not in it for that long i'm just gonna put my money behind this

00:41:57.400 guy the problem is is that socialists and those who want to destroy this country think long term we

00:42:04.880 don't uh if you want to think long term and know the truth know the truth about yourself your argument

00:42:13.400 our side the conservative movement how do we win in 2020 how do we win in 2024 and how do we save the

00:42:22.160 nation the book is truth bombs by steve dace truth bombs steve dace he'll tell you more about it after

00:42:29.500 this program on the blaze radio and television network this is the best of the glenbeck program

00:42:39.800 and don't forget rate us on itunes uh steven baldwin is here uh in studio uh an actor in a new movie

00:42:49.980 called the least of these uh let me start with this have you ever gone to walmart and been in one of their

00:43:05.900 and do you look down on those people that do that at this time glenn

00:43:12.320 my only response can possibly be yeah sir i am not aware of any such activity

00:43:19.060 nor if i were right i most definitely could not disclose such activity right right in any kind of

00:43:25.920 a public broadcasting yeah how are you i haven't seen you in a long time yeah i mean i've seen you

00:43:32.340 but i haven't seen you face to face you too and uh gosh there's a whole bunch i want to say to you

00:43:38.740 first i want to start with quit monkeying around jan you hairy really guys no it's not our idea we're

00:43:44.260 against it we're saying stop we're also i i will say quit monkeying around glenn okay just picking

00:43:51.820 it out and picking stuff out of other people's fur listen there is you know there's important stuff

00:43:58.120 to talk about yes there's important stuff to talk about this world has gone insane buddy

00:44:03.400 insane when stephen baldwin sits at the mic with you this many years later on the blaze and god

00:44:11.680 bless you for your success thank you uh by the way the the interview is over in 10 seconds do i get

00:44:16.100 one share of stock after the new merger just one just one uh larry no no god bless him see he knows how to

00:44:24.760 do it what's the most powerful word in hollywood no yeah yeah sorry baldwin maybe leave if you want

00:44:32.280 buster brown it's my show so tell me about the movie you're in the least of these uh and the

00:44:38.440 website forgive me is least of these dot movie not dot com least of these dot movie uh is the the

00:44:45.320 biographical story of an australian missionary named graham stains who in 1999 was uh murdered along

00:44:54.180 with his two very young boys uh he had been there for 15 years as a doctor with a medical clinic

00:45:00.440 uh treating uh the ailing leprosy epidemic which in the hindi faith is a curse he was born again 0.99

00:45:08.260 christian but very conservative and in the platform of that medical facility he would evangelize which

00:45:15.020 is legal when asked about your faith so uh then the writer of this particular screenplay was very smart

00:45:22.080 to take all of that based on the true life story and then create a really interesting fictional story

00:45:29.160 about uh uh uh an indian journalist work hired by a newspaper to try to expose the truth and this

00:45:37.560 and that and it's this guy's journey of learning who this man was and is and this so now it's kind of

00:45:43.640 like this more of a theatrical adaptation of the but it communicates who the guy was and the tragedy

00:45:51.220 and the loss and then his uh widow wife gladys who's alive today uh the first response she had to the

00:45:59.240 media after the events was we just want all of india to know we forgive the people who have done this

00:46:05.380 i love those people i love people that that forgive after the the unforgivable they just forgive the

00:46:15.100 unforgivable and that happens sometimes but in this instance it really sent a shock wave

00:46:20.400 in 99 across india and the perpetrators were caught and tried and the one lead guy was hung

00:46:28.700 went to prison and then was hung um as i understand it why'd they kill him i'm sorry why did they kill

00:46:35.240 him just because of he was he was talking about his faith or yeah i think that he just was so within

00:46:44.800 their culture as as conservative as he was i just think he was just so peaceful he was a threat

00:46:52.360 you know what i mean it's just and that's wild in yeah india gone the home of gandhi right but when

00:46:59.080 you get you know there's a couple bad apples usually in every bunch and if you're a hindi radical 0.53

00:47:04.400 yeah yeah saying hey wait no there's there he's really using that as a cover and these people are

00:47:09.780 causing problems in our in our faith in our region and this is yeah so that's the story

00:47:16.320 but as you know you you hear those i love people who do that thing but really this guy's story he's

00:47:24.820 one of the anomalies in that thing that really now on the 25th anniversary larry or 20 20th anniversary of

00:47:34.880 of that incident uh god bless me in my point as i can't believe it i mean it's 20 years since 1999

00:47:42.940 yeah 20 years that's crazy yeah anyway go ahead amazing we're we're we're apparently we're still

00:47:50.120 looking good glenn yeah no no i'm not you are i'm not but that's a different that's a different story

00:47:55.820 overall crux yeah and now we've done this film adaptation and and it's i'm not even joking around

00:48:01.920 here it's kind of already with churches and you know communities and socially going a little bit

00:48:06.520 viral he's he's kind of one of the within the world of global missionaries he's kind of an icon
