Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show. Thanks for being with us.
00:01:27.540
It's been just over a month since Hamas attacked Israel and the war is showing no signs of ending.
00:01:34.180
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said he will not stop until the evil forces of Hamas terrorists
00:01:40.300
are defeated. Netanyahu has been adamantly opposed to a ceasefire proposed by the Biden regime
00:01:46.920
and the president himself, the Pope, and of course, the United Nations. Netanyahu told ABC News this
00:01:54.140
week he would allow brief ceasefires, but that is only to allow the removal of hostages.
00:02:01.480
Well, there'll be no ceasefire, general ceasefire in Gaza without the release of our hostages.
00:02:07.260
As far as tactical little pauses, an hour here, an hour there, we've had them before. I suppose
00:02:12.540
will check the circumstances in order to enable goods, humanitarian goods to come in or our
00:02:19.720
hostages, individual hostages to leave. But I don't think there's going to be a general ceasefire.
00:02:24.800
It's not that I don't think. I think it will hamper the war effort. It'll hamper our effort to get
00:02:29.580
our hostages out because the only thing that works on these criminals in Hamas is the military pressure
00:02:35.760
that we're exerting. If Hamas agrees to release the hostages, then there would be a pause. Well,
00:02:42.780
there'd be a ceasefire for that purpose. The Biden regime pressuring Netanyahu to finish this war and
00:02:49.340
to finish it quickly. Reports out say Biden is working behind the scenes to have Netanyahu
00:02:55.400
forced out of office. Yep, more Biden election interference and Biden meddling in Israeli elections
00:03:03.280
politics as well. There won't be any interference in Ukraine elections or politics. Zelensky says there
00:03:11.880
won't be any elections at all. And that just about takes care of the politics. Almost a two-year-long
00:03:18.260
war with Russia and Biden has sent more than $100 billion in aid to Ukraine. No questions asked.
00:03:25.860
And Zelensky on mainstream media television this week, begging for more Biden bucks. And if we can't
00:03:32.820
give more, he said, at least, at least loan it to him on credit. If there is a question through society
00:03:40.300
of United States about military and about something else, okay, let's co-produce it.
00:03:48.800
It will be win-win. This odd one, if you can't give us, can't give us some financial support,
00:03:55.800
okay, okay, please give us a credit and we will give you back money after the war. And the force,
00:04:03.480
we can buy some ammunition. We will buy. We will defend our jobs. We will have taxes and we will buy.
00:04:11.940
We will buy from American companies. Just allow us. And that's it.
00:04:16.000
President Zelensky, what is your deadline for Congress to act? And what happens if they miss
00:04:23.960
that deadline? That is the decision of Congress. I will not push them, really. I think that they know
00:04:32.280
details. They know me. I saw a lot of congressmen, senators who came to Ukraine, governors who came to
00:04:39.400
Ukraine. We speak a lot. They know that we are very, very open. We are very clean. I proposed a lot of
00:04:47.400
represent. I proposed to White House and thanks to them, they sent some people to us for any control,
00:04:56.420
how our soldiers spend money. It's not the question for us. For us, that is real life. So we,
00:05:06.440
you know, we wanted to get your support, like we say, yesterday. That's why it doesn't matter.
00:05:13.640
It will be today or tomorrow. We just, I think, lose a time. Lose the time. Time is very expensive.
00:05:23.320
That's why we need your support. But you will get more. You will get more. I'm sure. After our win,
00:05:31.340
you will see all of all these things. Zelensky is perhaps the greatest fundraiser
00:05:36.860
in the history of fundraising. The corrupt leader of Ukraine also announced this week
00:05:42.380
he would be suspending his country's elections in 2024, saying, quote,
00:05:47.900
now is not the time for an election. Good to know. Well, turning now to politics here at home,
00:05:54.540
junkyard jackal Marxist Dems Special Counsel Jack Smith has decided he no longer wants
00:06:01.420
cameras in the courtroom. Smith, at the inception of his bogus indictments, wanted everything on
00:06:08.280
camera, he said. He wanted Trump perp-walked. He wanted Trump fingerprinted. He wanted him treated
00:06:14.060
like a violent criminal. And Smith thought it would be good for the Marxist Dems. He thought Americans
00:06:20.380
would see Trump as a criminal and not the God-fearing American patriot that he really is. He wanted the
00:06:26.800
public to see Trump as Al Capone and not Nelson Mandela. But it seems that has all finally backfired
00:06:34.760
on the Marxist Dems and Jack Smith, the junkyard dog. Smith not only wants Trump silenced, he wants him
00:06:42.880
disappeared as well. After President Trump spent the last few weeks in a New York courtroom where cameras
00:06:49.620
were allowed, Americans got to see and visualize exactly what this man is being put through as a
00:06:56.100
result of the corrupt judicial system, the corrupt Biden administration. Smith this week filed a motion
00:07:03.140
asking the courts to block media companies' requests to have cameras in the courtroom. Smith's special
00:07:10.820
counsel team arguing that there's no constitutional right to have a trial televised. No right, but why not?
00:07:18.440
Especially when it's the former president of the United States and the leading 2024 presidential
00:07:25.640
candidate. He has a lot of explaining to do, this junkyard dog of a special counsel, Jack Smith.
00:07:33.320
Well, joining us now is political strategist and author, podcaster, fellow radio host on 77 WABC,
00:07:41.240
Roger Stone. Roger, as always, great to have you with us on The Great America Show
00:07:45.220
and good of you to take the time. Let's start with President Trump in court this week for the
00:07:50.520
Trump Organization. His attorneys in courtrooms weekly all across the country defending him.
00:07:57.340
Every right, every constitutional right that he has, some judge somewhere from state to federal
00:08:04.180
wants to deprive him of his rights. Yeah, this New York civil case over the valuation of his properties
00:08:12.260
has an Alice in Wonderland quality to it. I just keep thinking of the Queen of Hearts and the Mad
00:08:20.480
Adder. I mean, this judge, who, by the way, kind of reminds me of Riff Raff in the Rocky Horror Picture
00:08:27.140
Show. I mean, this guy is a disaster. So the verdict first and then the trial. This makes no sense
00:08:34.720
whatsoever. The claim that Trump is not entitled to a jury trial is not based on an error by Trump's
00:08:46.880
lawyers that they forgot to check some box on a form. It's because the Attorney General Letitia James,
00:08:54.620
who has said in multiple forums that she's out to get Donald Trump before she had any evidence
00:09:00.800
with which to try to indict him, actually was brought under a statute that does not allow him
00:09:09.600
a jury trial. So his fate is in the hands of one man who is an obvious partisan. I mean, he's a
00:09:18.360
machine hack who has sought to gag Trump in this action, just as the federal prosecutors are seeking
00:09:28.440
to gag him in D.C. And I guess the most outrageous thing, Lou, is who's the victim? There is no victim.
00:09:39.680
Donald Trump borrowed a huge amount of money. He paid handsome interest rates on that money. Everyone got
00:09:46.500
paid back. The banks in question used their own lawyers, used their own appraisals. No one would lend
00:09:53.880
anyone, even a billionaire money solely on their say-so. And there was a disclaimer clause in all of the
00:10:02.160
contracts. There's no crime here because there is no victim here. This is obviously a totally
00:10:09.960
political prosecution. It's almost as outrageous as the business records case that Alvin Bragg brought
00:10:19.540
in the same jurisdiction. It just demonstrates yet again, Donald Trump is an existential threat to the
00:10:27.580
current status quo. And they will use any trick in the book, including the weaponization and
00:10:34.920
politicization of our judicial system to try to stop him. There is, in my opinion, Roger, no judicial
00:10:43.760
system, no justice system in the state of New York. It is overwhelmingly run by the Democrat machine.
00:10:51.020
The Marxist Dems control the Democratic Party, and they control the courts, the prosecutors.
00:10:58.280
And to top it all off, George Soros has an investment in many of the prosecutors, but especially
00:11:06.800
the Manhattan D.A., and I suspect if we were to press very hard, also Letitia James, the attorney general,
00:11:14.560
has been a beneficiary of his largesse. I just don't understand how any state court system could be any
00:11:25.100
more corrupt than that of New York. Well, unless, of course, we're talking about the federal system in
00:11:30.640
D.C., which I think is every bit as biased. It's interesting that the judge in the D.C. case,
00:11:39.900
Judge Chukton, had received a motion for a gag order. She paused it temporarily. Then she enacted it.
00:11:52.540
Trump asked for a stay. The three-judge panel that gave him a temporary stay,
00:11:59.500
that is not a victory, by the way. They make it very clear. We're not ruling on the underlying merits
00:12:05.760
of the government's motion for a gag order. We're just staying it until we can consider it.
00:12:13.260
Two out of the three judges in this panel I appealed to when the same D.C. circuit gagged me in my trial,
00:12:22.640
and they strung me out for eight months without making a ruling, eight months in which I was gagged.
00:12:31.400
I sustained horrific damage at the hands of MSNBC and CNN and The Washington Post,
00:12:38.360
the dominant news outlets in the jurisdiction to which I was going to be tried.
00:12:42.800
And then a week before the trial, they reacted to our writ of mandamus by saying that it wasn't right
00:12:50.580
for a decision because I had not first asked the trial judge to end the gag order that she had put
00:12:59.640
in place to begin with, which, of course, she never would have done. So I didn't get justice from
00:13:05.800
these the same panel of judges. And at the end of the day, I still believe that they will put in
00:13:12.680
place a gag on Donald Trump in the D.C. case. I think you're exactly right. Two Obama judges
00:13:22.760
and a Biden judge making, you know, stirring the cauldron and ready to pour. It is it's disgusting what
00:13:33.240
we're seeing. I was reserving just the state governments in terms of corruption. I don't
00:13:39.220
know of another jurisdiction as corrupt as New York. I don't I do know that Delaware on occasion
00:13:44.800
comes very close. And I do know as well, in absolute agreement with you, that the D.C. court system
00:13:52.300
is run by Marxist Dems. It might as well have red flags flying atop the courthouses. And rather than
00:14:00.480
and there is no such thing as blind justice, I'm not sure I ever understood the the metaphor anyway.
00:14:07.260
But the reality is that right now, the justice system in this this country is a criminal enterprise
00:14:14.120
unto itself. Well, and there is one substantial difference. And I will I will admit this. I mean,
00:14:21.260
I'm a U.S. citizen and I'm entitled my constitutional rights. But I think I was gagged unconstitutionally
00:14:29.080
when I went through the meat grinder in D.C. But I was not a candidate for president of the United
00:14:34.520
States. And I certainly wasn't the leading candidate for president of the United States.
00:14:40.760
The Constitution holds that political speech is particularly protected. So the idea that Donald
00:14:47.440
Trump would be gagged while running for president adds an entire another layer of outrageousness to
00:14:55.540
this. Back in April, I predicted that he would be gagged in D.C. I stand by my prediction. I think it
00:15:02.760
is egregious and unfair. But at the end of the day, the prosecutors can continue to leak and they leak
00:15:10.740
constantly. For example, the leak several weeks ago in which it was alleged that Mark Meadows had been
00:15:19.580
granted immunity to testify against Donald Trump, Mark Meadows being Donald Trump's former chief of
00:15:25.720
staff. Now, Lou, where could that possibly have come from? It's unlikely to have been leaked by Mark
00:15:33.040
Meadows or his attorney. So where could that where could that leak possibly have come from? So the
00:15:39.620
prosecutors leak like a sieve to shape the news against Trump. But Trump himself would be prevented
00:15:46.300
from defending himself in any forum under this gag order. Well, on this show, Roger, we refer to Jack
00:15:54.840
Smith as the junkyard jackal. He is no nothing more than an operative, an activist and a vicious one
00:16:03.620
at that. It's this history that his practicing history is a prosecutor. And he has demonstrated that
00:16:11.420
he's still up to the same standards are still down to the same standards as as ever. Looking at what he
00:16:19.860
has done to this point is to to bring charges based on the documents case in Mar-a-Lago, prosecuting
00:16:27.860
the January 6 case. All of this is in on its face, pure bunkum. It's all manufactured. It's all
00:16:37.480
astroturf. It's all shaped and sculpted out of pure fantasy and conjuring of the of the worst that they
00:16:45.320
could possibly do with so little to to help them in the way of evidence. It is appalling that the chief
00:16:53.680
justice of the United States Supreme Court and the head of the courts, the federal judiciary, hasn't stopped
00:17:01.380
this nonsense because it is in each instance purely that nonsense. We had if I just sit here and I can't
00:17:09.600
even believe that the special counsel was allowed to begin two trials within 20 days of each other
00:17:18.660
in March. And Judge Cannon is now, it appears, going to separate those cases and at least one of them be
00:17:25.840
deferred until after the election. Personally, I think both should be deferred. I think, though,
00:17:30.920
obviously that both should be thrown out of court. And I'd like to see proceedings against the attorney
00:17:38.460
general and also Jack Smith and his helpful his helpful trolls of accomplice prosecutors on the team.
00:17:48.580
We're talking with Roger Stone. When we come back, we're going to take up his view on what it means for
00:17:55.740
this presidential candidate, as well as former president, to be gagged, particularly in light
00:18:02.540
of the most recent polling that shows all sorts of disturbing developments for the Marxist Dems
00:18:09.800
and their puppet president. We'll be right back with Roger Stone. Please stay with us.
00:18:14.980
We're back now with Roger Stone. And Roger, to look at what is happening in this instance,
00:18:27.840
another outrage is for Jack Smith, the special counsel, to try to start two trials against the
00:18:34.280
former president of the United States, the presumptive nominee. He's running 40, 50 points ahead of all
00:18:41.220
challengers. He is the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party. And yet here we are watching
00:18:47.620
these. This is just an ignorant and vicious game being played by the special counsel. And he has
00:18:55.400
not been called out on it. Judge Cannon apparently is going to act on it. But someone needs to say loud
00:19:01.760
and clear to this man that you are a rotten, corrupt and vicious operative of the Marxist Dem party.
00:19:10.160
Well, why does it take special counsel John Durham five years, five years to finally tell us what most
00:19:17.500
of us already know, that there was no Russian collusion, that there was no probable cause to
00:19:24.220
legitimize or to rationalize legally the FISA warrants against Donald Trump and members of his staff,
00:19:32.440
the appointment of Robert Mueller as a special counsel, that the Steele dossier was bunk.
00:19:39.560
But it took Mr. Durham five long years to conduct his investigation. Yet we're kind of on a rocket
00:19:47.500
docket here where Jack Smith wants to try Donald Trump, wanted to try him this year,
00:19:52.940
wanted to go to trial this year, now agrees to go to trial in March, which is too soon. It is
00:20:00.820
obviously because this is all about election interference. And this new spate of five battleground
00:20:10.560
state polls yesterday published by the New York Times shows you precisely why they are so desperate to
00:20:18.480
gagged Donald Trump. Because when Donald Trump can speak, it helps the American people see through
00:20:25.780
how bogus this entire process is, see through how they are weaponizing the judicial system in a political
00:20:35.780
way to interfere in the election, to harm Trump's chances of returning to the White House.
00:20:42.360
And based on this extraordinary set of polls, it's not working. It's actually backfiring
00:20:50.640
in a very big way. Trump now leading in five of the six battleground states.
00:20:58.300
And now also, with all of these would-be challengers decimating them, I loved a story the other day
00:21:06.280
headlined. Nikki Haley, now the effect, and I'm paraphrasing, now his chief challenger. She's 40 points
00:21:14.960
back. And the best, if you will, of the Lilliputians who have decided that they can contend for the
00:21:23.840
presidency of the United States. The record is clear. The statement is profound and loud. The American
00:21:32.960
people don't care for these candidates who are challenging Donald Trump. And the poll, the most
00:21:38.740
recent polling, McLaughlin poll, showing that 76 percent of voters, Republican voters, want to see
00:21:48.960
nothing of a primary debate. It's really stunning stuff and a very clear message about why, as you say,
00:21:57.160
this is, without question, election interference on the part of the Marxist Dems, the Department of
00:22:05.900
Justice, the FBI, you name it. If it's federal, it's tainted, it's corrupted, and they're aligned
00:22:13.580
against one Donald Trump. Devil take the hindmost.
00:22:18.840
Well, it's really interesting when you look into the internals of these New York Times polls,
00:22:24.800
is Trump has made stunning gains among African Americans. He is only very narrowly behind among
00:22:33.980
Hispanic Americans. He's doing extraordinarily well with younger voters. And that explains his lead in
00:22:43.540
five of the six states. The only swing state he is not leading in is Wisconsin. What you have right
00:22:53.440
right now, Lou, is palpable hysteria and panic among the Democrats because Joe Biden is starting
00:23:02.620
more and more to smell like a loser. The fact that you have Mr. Comer, the chairman of the House
00:23:11.620
Oversight Committee, saying that he's about to send subpoenas to certain members of the Biden family,
00:23:19.140
Politico trying desperately this week to cancel the fact that there is indeed evidence of epic
00:23:28.540
corruption. And it does, in fact, involve Joe Biden himself. There is a real panic in the Democratic
00:23:36.200
Party. And it is interesting to me that in the face of this panic, who comes forward to support Joe
00:23:45.780
Biden and tried to reassure people about his viability, Barack Obama. Is Barack Obama not,
00:23:54.120
in fact, actually just defending his own third term, which we're, you know, three years into right now?
00:24:02.940
Yeah, I think you're exactly right. And it's interesting his emergence here in moments of high
00:24:08.660
stress and low drama, if you will, in the Biden administration, when they need someone who can speak
00:24:15.220
this sitting puppet president is in Delaware on the beach and has been throughout since the October
00:24:22.780
7th massacre. Meanwhile, somebody has to stand up. And unfortunately for President Obama, he has to
00:24:30.760
step forward out of the shadows and emerge as to claim what has been his property all along.
00:24:36.560
That is this third term of his presidency. He's defending Joe Biden, as you say.
00:24:42.480
But at the same time, his leading strategist is calling for Joe Biden's head and making it clear,
00:24:50.220
clear as a bell, that that he means for this president to be replaced. And and I know that
00:24:59.360
Barack Obama has to be just down in the dumps, depressed beyond measure that he can't actually
00:25:06.480
find a way to run for a fourth term. But so be it. That's the way it is. But stand by constitutional
00:25:13.960
experts. That may be a test as well. I can't imagine where we go from here, because the Democratic Party
00:25:21.860
is suddenly revealed to the American people. They are pro-Palestinian. They are anti-Israeli.
00:25:29.500
They are anti-Semitic. They're aligned with every Marxist cause on the globe and including
00:25:36.680
including a one world new order that will just suit them brilliantly. We're looking at everything
00:25:45.920
in this country that they've been trying to to achieve. And they're within a hair's breadth
00:25:51.380
of achieving it. That is the takeover of not only the federal government, but our educational system
00:25:56.900
of our universities and colleges across the board. The left is now so insinuated into corporate America
00:26:07.260
running their H.R. departments and in many cases their C offices of those corporations that this is a
00:26:15.180
sort of a last minute timely moment to perhaps reverse the Marxist gains in taking over our nation.
00:26:23.520
What do you think? Well, Lou, I think there is a way for Joe, for Barack Obama to get his fourth term,
00:26:31.940
and that is for Michelle Obama to run for president. I have written about this and talked about it now
00:26:38.260
for well over a year. I really think that is the plan. Now, Joe is not going to want to go because he
00:26:44.800
needs to maintain the power to pardon himself and his brother and his son and other members of his family.
00:26:51.780
But I don't expect him to resign. I just expect in the end that he will ultimately be persuaded that
00:26:59.060
he cannot run again. At that point, I think Michelle Obama becomes the favorite for the Democratic
00:27:06.940
nomination. They've changed the schedule so that the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary are
00:27:15.620
meaningless. Those states have been stripped of their delegates. Their first nominating contest is
00:27:21.120
South Carolina, where the Democratic primary features an absolute majority of African-American
00:27:27.600
voters. Barack Obama was the keynote speaker when they nominated John Kerry. Four years later, he was the
00:27:36.060
nominee. Michelle Obama was the keynote speaker when they nominated Joe Biden. Four years later, I believe
00:27:42.400
she will be the nominee. She has just published her second biography. Her husband had two
00:27:47.540
biographies as the run-up to his presidential campaign. And she's out doing voter registration drives, which I
00:27:54.820
don't think she's doing for her health. Folks who want to make jokes about her sexual orientation or gender, I
00:28:03.180
think, are making a horrific mistake. She would be a very, very formidable Democratic candidate.
00:28:12.980
They'd take Gavin Newsom for vice president. They'd extort a lot of money from him from the special
00:28:19.080
interests for the ticket. But I think there is a way for the Obamas to continue their control of the National
00:28:29.300
Democratic Party and, indeed, of the federal government.
00:28:33.400
We're talking with Roger Stone, and we're going to take a quick break. Please stay with us through these
00:28:39.340
moments, brief moments, and we'll be right back. Stay with us.
00:28:44.960
We're back with Roger Stone, and we're talking about, well, more Obama and a, well, and actually a very
00:28:59.420
clever use of his wife politically, Michelle Obama for president. Roger, that's a scary, scary thought. The
00:29:08.840
woman is, she's all sorts of things, but she is a dour and negative presence. I just can't imagine her
00:29:17.460
succeeding on the campaign trail, but perhaps that's because my imagination doesn't rise to the
00:29:23.700
level of the Marxist Dems. You think she would be a candidate that could hold up under a grueling,
00:29:30.040
both schedule and intensive scrutiny of her background, her personality, and her prospects?
00:29:40.120
You know, she's an attorney. She's probably one of the most popular women in the country. There's
00:29:45.860
an excellent documentary on this called Michelle Obama 2024 by the documentary filmmaker Joel Gilbert,
00:29:53.820
which I urge people to check out. Yes, I think that the more she says she's not interested and she hates
00:29:59.740
politics, the more convinced I am, of course, that she's actually running. I have to guess that Gavin
00:30:07.480
Newsom's recent trip to China was an audition. He keeps advertising his availability, but that would
00:30:15.120
not give the Obamas the kind of control and influence that they enjoy today. I think it is not a far-fetched
00:30:23.780
idea at all. I think it is, in fact, very likely. Now, she isn't really who she says she is either.
00:30:31.200
That's the whole point of that documentary. But I really think that the professional Democrats
00:30:38.580
looking at these New York Times poll numbers have to be in a panic because on no level is Joe Biden
00:30:47.100
in any condition to run for re-election. He can barely stand up. He has trouble stringing together
00:30:53.400
a coherent sentence. He clearly has no energy. His policies have brought us record gasoline prices,
00:31:04.020
a 76 percent increase in the cost of groceries, epic inflation, an invasion of our southern border,
00:31:13.060
causing us across the country, a crime epidemic, a drug epidemic. City budgets and state budgets are
00:31:23.000
bursting at the seams as we use social welfare programs to pay for this influx of illegal immigrants
00:31:30.860
into the country. We teeter on the edge of World War III. We have shipped billions to Ukraine,
00:31:40.100
but the very best sources tell me, and this was kind of confirmed last week, even out of Ukrainian
00:31:46.800
sources, the Ukrainians are losing to the Russians, despite the billions that we have sent them.
00:31:53.460
And of course, we teeter on the brink of nuclear war in the Middle East. So Joe Biden is not re-electable.
00:32:00.820
The Democrats know it. They're going to be looking to a fresh face, somebody new. Do not discount
00:32:08.400
the possibility of that person being Michelle Obama. You know, as we extend all that you're
00:32:14.960
suggesting and your outlook, it certainly raises, I'll just put, I'll speak only for myself. It raises
00:32:23.040
my hopes that we can see some unraveling, some cracks widening in the stone wall of the Democrat Party
00:32:31.780
and the deep state bastion that is protecting Joe Biden and his family from further investigation.
00:32:41.160
But also at the same time, it means that there's a, there is a schedule here.
00:32:47.280
All right. What do you, let me ask you the, the professional political strategist,
00:32:52.420
what do you think is the last moment at which there could be this switch thrown,
00:32:58.320
this inflection point at which then the Democrat Party reaches to another candidate other than
00:33:04.300
Lion Joe? Well, interestingly enough, normally you would say at the end of this year,
00:33:10.760
kind of late, late November, December, except for the truth is the Democratic National Convention
00:33:18.400
is dominated by the superdelegates and the superdelegates are switchable at any time.
00:33:24.700
So Joe could withdraw from the race for reasons of health, you know, into the beginning part of next
00:33:33.100
year, and it would not be too late to replace him. Based on the rules of the Republican Party,
00:33:38.760
that would not work. We will actually hold our Iowa caucuses and they will be used to award delegates.
00:33:47.120
We will actually hold our New Hampshire primary. But in line with what you said earlier,
00:33:52.920
the Republican nomination contest is over. Those who sought to prop up Ron DeSantis have now
00:33:59.420
essentially abandoned him. They will now seek to prop up Nikki Haley, but that won't work either.
00:34:07.200
At the grassroots of the Republican Party, this is Donald Trump's party. This is the most profound
00:34:13.940
change in the Republican Party since the days of Ronald Reagan. Perhaps that's not true at the
00:34:21.880
leadership level of the party. Perhaps it's not true at the elite level of the party. But among
00:34:27.560
grassroots Republican primary and caucus voters, this is Donald Trump's party. It is the party of the
00:34:36.020
middle class. It is the party of America first. He is going to be nominated. Assuming that he is breathing,
00:34:45.860
he will be nominated. His legal status does not matter. Although, as you know, there is this illicit,
00:34:54.580
completely illegal effort to bar him from the ballot in Colorado and in Minnesota and in Michigan.
00:35:03.280
By the way, that has already been defeated in New Hampshire, in Florida, where there were earlier
00:35:08.260
attempts to bar him from the ballot based on the bogus argument that he is guilty of insurrection and
00:35:17.340
therefore ineligible to be president under 14th Amendment, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution.
00:35:26.180
The problem with that is no court of law anywhere has found him guilty of insurrection. So just because
00:35:32.920
that is the opinion of some election official in Ohio does not make it a fact. Yet it is yet a whole
00:35:41.400
nother tsunami of lawfare, once again being paid for by George Soros in terms of the dark money groups
00:35:50.620
and their Democratic allies in, say, Colorado and in Michigan and Minnesota, who are trying to
00:35:58.120
prevent Trump from simply having his name on the ballot. And there's another element at work here
00:36:05.400
that with the October 7th massacre and the Israel-Hamas war, the tens of thousands, the hundreds of
00:36:14.540
thousands of students primarily turning out to protest Israel after suffering the atrocity of the
00:36:24.200
October 7th massacre. Suddenly we see a vein of anti-Semitism in this country that none of us,
00:36:33.640
we knew there were anti-Semitic forces on our university campuses. We had no idea how vast it was,
00:36:41.000
the number of students who had been so indoctrinated by their faculty and the education system itself.
00:36:47.640
I and Alan Dershowitz made an interesting point the other day when he said he believes that
00:36:53.960
this will result in millions of Jews converting from Democrat to Republican in the 2024 election.
00:37:02.200
And my question would be, why would they not? Well, I guess my question is, why have they not already
00:37:07.640
done so? I mean, a number of my Jewish friends continue to vote against their interests. But I think now,
00:37:12.680
hopefully it is writ large for them. The idea that the Democratic Party of Harry Truman,
00:37:21.000
the founder of Israel, will not stand up against anti-Semitism, will not stand up for Israel,
00:37:27.640
is almost beyond belief. And you can now see how deeply the forces of radical Islam have embedded
00:37:37.880
themselves in today's modern Democratic Party, as well as in our culture at large. It is shocking to me, shocking.
00:37:47.240
It is shocking, and I think it may well be determined in the outcome of the 2024 election.
00:37:53.800
I believe that we're going to see far more revelations in the weeks and months ahead
00:38:01.400
as this conflict in Gaza continues. And I just want to say, you know, God bless the people of Israel.
00:38:11.880
The Israelis need our support, and without question, our loyalty. And to this point, at least this
00:38:19.720
administration has persevered in that regard, but under immense pressure from within the Democrat Party.
00:38:26.440
Roger Stone, we try to always give our guests the last word. You're concluding thoughts here today,
00:38:32.360
if you would. These are the darkest times that I can remember in America. But I continue to have hope.
00:38:41.560
The other night I had dinner with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago. And I must tell you, for a man who is under the
00:38:48.840
pressures and stress that he's under, his mood is extraordinary. He looks great. He's lost some weight.
00:38:57.160
He really is in fighting trim. He's resolute. He's determined. He's a little angry, but he's every
00:39:04.600
right to be angry. But his mood is very balanced. And above all, Lou, he is incredibly confident of
00:39:12.760
victory. Incredibly. So I urge people to pray for our country, pray for President Trump, and pray that
00:39:24.200
Amen. Roger, thanks so much for being with us, as always. A great pleasure talking with you.
00:39:34.040
Thank you, everybody, for being here today. Our guest here tomorrow on The Great America Show will be
00:39:38.680
Senator Ted Cruz, Great American. Please join us for our discussion on the spread of anti-Israel hate
00:39:45.240
and anti-Semitic hate on our university and college campuses. Join us each and every weekday,
00:39:51.720
and thank you, everybody, for being with us. God bless you, and may God bless America.
