00:00:30.620 The decade that began with the Tea Party

00:00:33.040 and is ending with historic victories

00:00:35.420 for conservative priorities

00:00:36.720 from the legislature to the culture

00:00:39.320 to the federal courts

00:00:41.000 is now coming to a close.

00:00:42.880 We will examine how history will look back

00:00:45.260 on the past 10 years.

00:00:46.740 Then, a man gets 16 years behind bars

00:00:49.720 for burning a gay pride flag.

00:00:52.260 Christianity Today endorses the impeachment

00:00:54.680 and removal of President Trump,

00:00:56.560 and we clear up some fake news on Christmas.

00:01:00.120 All that and more.

00:01:01.000 I'm Michael Knowles,

00:01:01.600 and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:10.040 There is so much to get to today.

00:01:12.340 It is not just the end of a year

00:01:14.260 that we're coming up on.

00:01:15.600 It is the end of a decade.

00:01:17.520 And I think that our perception of this decade

00:01:20.200 is very, very different

00:01:22.020 than what we can actually conclude

00:01:24.300 from what happened on the political front.

00:01:26.120 We'll get to that in a second.

00:01:27.100 First, I've got to thank our friends

00:01:28.100 over at ExpressVPN.

00:01:30.620 You know how important it is

00:01:32.080 to protect your data.

00:01:33.100 I've been telling you this forever now.

00:01:35.200 People are trying to get your data.

00:01:36.900 At The Daily Wire,

00:01:37.640 we invest thousands of dollars

00:01:39.340 in cybersecurity

00:01:40.540 because we regularly get these kinds of attacks.

00:01:43.400 But guess what?

00:01:44.160 Individuals get those attacks every day too,

00:01:46.340 and you can't afford

00:01:48.140 to have your own IT department here protecting you.

00:01:50.560 That's why you need ExpressVPN.

00:01:52.680 I know that if you are listening to this show,

00:01:55.980 you've got some weird stuff going on

00:01:58.020 in your browser history, all right?

00:01:59.540 You probably go to some of those sites

00:02:01.900 that you don't want your employer

00:02:03.100 to know you've been on.

00:02:04.380 You know what I'm talking about?

00:02:05.280 Dailywire.com, stuff like that.

00:02:07.220 That's why you've got to encrypt

00:02:09.500 and anonymize your data, okay?

00:02:12.760 When you don't use ExpressVPN,

00:02:15.020 it is like leaving the door unlocked

00:02:17.020 to your house,

00:02:18.180 and especially leaving the door unlocked

00:02:20.360 when you've got all sorts of valuables,

00:02:22.840 your financial records,

00:02:23.780 everything you've been looking at.

00:02:25.060 People can get it.

00:02:26.020 So one of the easiest ways

00:02:27.060 to secure your internet data

00:02:28.620 is ExpressVPN.

00:02:29.800 You just click one button on your computer

00:02:31.680 or your smartphone,

00:02:32.480 and you're protected.

00:02:33.280 I know what you're thinking.

00:02:34.660 You just think,

00:02:35.100 ah, it doesn't matter.

00:02:36.080 It's not a big deal.

00:02:36.880 I'll deal with it

00:02:37.560 if I ever have a problem.

00:02:38.780 Guys, it is so inexpensive.

00:02:40.520 You so don't have to think about it.

00:02:42.780 You click it.

00:02:43.260 You're good to go.

00:02:44.000 Do it.

00:02:44.480 You will regret it if you don't.

00:03:09.880 to get started.

00:03:10.900 What a great decade.

00:03:14.000 What a great decade

00:03:15.380 this has been.

00:03:18.260 Before we get into why,

00:03:19.700 I want to issue one

00:03:20.860 slight correction,

00:03:22.600 but it's important.

00:03:23.260 It actually tells us

00:03:24.020 a little bit about

00:03:24.540 what we're talking about today.

00:03:25.640 You remember,

00:03:26.560 during the impeachment vote

00:03:28.180 last week,

00:03:29.060 there were all sorts of speeches

00:03:30.140 that were being given,

00:03:31.040 one of which

00:03:31.620 was the most powerful oration

00:03:33.500 in recent American history.

00:03:35.060 That was the speech

00:03:36.120 in which a congressman

00:03:37.340 stood up and said,

00:03:38.840 for the remainder of my time,

00:03:40.020 I'm going to list

00:03:41.080 all of the high crimes

00:03:43.200 and misdemeanors

00:03:43.820 that President Trump

00:03:44.560 has committed.

00:03:45.240 I'm going to begin now.

00:03:46.540 And then he was silent

00:03:47.540 for a full minute

00:03:48.640 and then he relinquished

00:03:50.520 his time.

00:03:51.400 It was a beautiful,

00:03:52.700 powerful oration.

00:03:53.900 I mean,

00:03:54.120 obviously it was inspired

00:03:55.080 by some seriously dense

00:03:56.540 political philosophy work.

00:03:58.900 I misidentified

00:04:00.540 who that congressman was

00:04:01.680 and I'm very sorry about that

00:04:03.220 because it was

00:04:04.100 such a great speech.

00:04:05.100 So just to correct the record,

00:04:06.580 that congressman

00:04:07.360 who I identified

00:04:08.220 as Bill Johnson

00:04:09.000 was actually Russ Fulcher,

00:04:11.800 Congressman Fulcher.

00:04:12.760 My apologies

00:04:13.460 and my admiration, sir.

00:04:15.500 You've got them both.

00:04:17.280 The decade is coming

00:04:18.380 to a close.

00:04:19.920 The defining feature

00:04:21.320 of this decade

00:04:22.140 in politics

00:04:23.720 is the rise

00:04:25.100 of the right.

00:04:26.620 That's it.

00:04:27.640 Now I know

00:04:28.340 what you're thinking.

00:04:29.060 You're thinking,

00:04:29.520 we've had so many setbacks.

00:04:30.980 That's true.

00:04:31.980 But in terms of

00:04:33.040 the actual popular politics,

00:04:35.740 political opinions,

00:04:36.620 it's the rise

00:04:38.540 of the right.

00:04:39.920 Remember,

00:04:40.400 2008,

00:04:40.960 Barack Obama

00:04:41.520 gets elected.

00:04:42.640 2009,

00:04:43.280 you get the Affordable Care Act.

00:04:44.640 You get Obamacare.

00:04:46.200 Then you enter

00:04:47.000 this new decade,

00:04:47.900 2010.

00:04:48.880 And 2010

00:04:49.620 begins with

00:04:50.920 the rise

00:04:52.420 of the Tea Party.

00:04:54.520 2010,

00:04:55.180 rise of the Tea Party.

00:04:56.060 They take over

00:04:56.520 the House of Representatives.

00:04:57.680 They're able to stymie

00:04:58.600 the rest of the Obama 0.66

00:04:59.440 administration's plans.

00:05:00.520 Then,

00:05:01.560 over the course

00:05:02.320 of the next

00:05:02.860 six years,

00:05:04.280 we win

00:05:04.840 1,000 seats

00:05:07.360 across the country

00:05:09.260 at the local,

00:05:09.940 state,

00:05:10.280 and federal level.

00:05:11.080 1,000 seats.

00:05:12.240 Barack Obama

00:05:12.820 destroys the Democratic Party.

00:05:15.240 Even though Obama

00:05:16.160 gets re-elected

00:05:16.900 in 2012,

00:05:18.020 virtually every other election,

00:05:19.940 all the rest

00:05:20.540 of the political momentum

00:05:21.480 goes to the right.

00:05:22.680 And then the decade

00:05:23.260 ends with

00:05:24.060 the election

00:05:24.920 of President Trump

00:05:25.800 and

00:05:26.680 the first three years

00:05:28.060 of the Trump administration,

00:05:28.940 which have proved

00:05:29.540 wildly popular

00:05:30.380 on the economy,

00:05:32.340 just if you look

00:05:32.840 at his approval rating.

00:05:34.040 And even now,

00:05:34.700 from the beginning

00:05:35.120 of the impeachment process

00:05:36.260 to the end,

00:05:38.260 President Trump's

00:05:38.900 approval numbers

00:05:39.460 have gone up

00:05:39.980 and now the majority

00:05:40.660 of Americans,

00:05:41.500 depending on which poll

00:05:42.180 you look at,

00:05:42.680 but multiple polls,

00:05:43.500 the majority of Americans

00:05:44.360 oppose impeachment

00:05:46.400 and removal.

00:05:47.180 Even among Democrats,

00:05:48.420 the number of people

00:05:49.500 who support impeachment

00:05:50.300 and removal

00:05:50.700 has dropped

00:05:51.160 from 90%

00:05:52.120 to 77%

00:05:53.260 over the course

00:05:54.260 of the impeachment proceedings.

00:05:55.600 And that's according

00:05:56.440 to CNN.

00:05:57.220 So take it with

00:05:57.960 a grain of salt,

00:05:58.660 but if anyone

00:05:59.180 if CNN

00:06:00.100 were going to skew

00:06:00.680 either way,

00:06:01.100 it would skew

00:06:01.440 to the left.

00:06:02.820 Why does the decade

00:06:03.920 not feel like

00:06:04.920 we've been winning?

00:06:05.760 The reason is

00:06:06.560 we've lost

00:06:07.220 some major battles.

00:06:09.200 We've lost

00:06:09.620 huge amounts

00:06:10.440 of cultural ground.

00:06:11.700 We lost

00:06:12.020 on the redefinition

00:06:12.820 of marriage.

00:06:13.440 We lost

00:06:14.020 on the redefinition

00:06:14.780 of sex itself.

00:06:15.820 Men are women 0.99

00:06:16.380 and women are men.

00:06:17.260 All that sort of stuff.

00:06:18.320 We've lost a lot.

00:06:20.880 And Russell Kirk,

00:06:21.840 the great conservative

00:06:22.680 philosopher,

00:06:23.300 he actually says

00:06:24.400 that conservatism

00:06:25.340 is about loss.

00:06:26.460 The chief

00:06:27.840 sentiment

00:06:28.920 of conservatism

00:06:29.820 is the feeling

00:06:30.500 of loss

00:06:31.180 because you're

00:06:31.780 trying to conserve

00:06:32.440 things and keep

00:06:33.060 them going

00:06:33.520 into the future.

00:06:35.200 And so you

00:06:35.900 keenly feel

00:06:36.580 all those losses.

00:06:37.300 So sure,

00:06:37.960 we feel those losses.

00:06:39.580 But think about

00:06:40.560 what those losses

00:06:41.420 look like.

00:06:42.920 They weren't

00:06:43.540 popular losses.

00:06:45.260 They weren't

00:06:46.020 losses even

00:06:46.900 in elections.

00:06:48.100 They were losses

00:06:49.300 at the judicial level.

00:06:51.300 In all of these cases,

00:06:52.760 the redefinition

00:06:53.380 of marriage,

00:06:54.700 increasingly the

00:06:55.340 redefinition of sex,

00:06:56.620 now someone just

00:06:57.180 got 16 years

00:06:57.960 in the clink

00:06:58.380 for burning

00:06:58.880 a gay pride flag.

00:07:00.600 All those things

00:07:01.520 were caused

00:07:03.000 by a robed

00:07:03.960 lawyer overstepping

00:07:05.360 his bounds.

00:07:06.860 Otherwise,

00:07:07.640 we're doing great.

00:07:08.380 If you look at

00:07:08.760 the direction

00:07:09.160 of political

00:07:09.740 support in the

00:07:10.340 country,

00:07:10.780 it all favors

00:07:11.960 the right.

00:07:12.400 And we just got

00:07:12.900 some more good news

00:07:13.700 on this front.

00:07:14.420 Because if the

00:07:14.900 judiciary is the

00:07:15.720 main problem,

00:07:17.200 we've now learned

00:07:18.000 President Trump

00:07:19.020 and Cocaine Mitch 0.86

00:07:20.040 have officially

00:07:21.760 confirmed 187

00:07:24.560 federal judges.

00:07:26.220 This is Mitch

00:07:26.720 McConnell's legacy.

00:07:27.920 And it's the

00:07:28.240 most important

00:07:28.740 thing that

00:07:29.080 President Trump

00:07:29.620 has done

00:07:30.000 in all three

00:07:30.440 years.

00:07:31.840 While he's

00:07:32.280 distracting with

00:07:33.000 the tweets,

00:07:33.620 while he's

00:07:33.900 being impeached,

00:07:34.740 while he's

00:07:35.040 talking about

00:07:35.480 Mika Brzezinski's

00:07:36.240 face,

00:07:37.840 while he's

00:07:38.180 doing all this

00:07:38.760 stuff in his

00:07:39.300 left hand,

00:07:39.780 look what he's

00:07:40.080 doing with his

00:07:40.480 right.

00:07:40.720 He's getting

00:07:41.220 all of these

00:07:41.840 judges through.

00:07:42.720 Those judges

00:07:43.180 have lifetime

00:07:43.900 appointments.

00:07:45.000 He and McConnell

00:07:46.240 are seriously

00:07:47.160 outpacing Barack

00:07:48.140 Obama now.

00:07:49.100 There's a new

00:07:49.640 report out.

00:07:50.280 One in four

00:07:51.060 circuit court judges

00:07:52.340 is a Trump

00:07:53.700 appointee.

00:07:54.560 So when Trump

00:07:55.560 took office,

00:07:56.580 nine of the

00:07:57.680 country's 13

00:07:58.820 circuit courts

00:07:59.660 had a majority

00:08:01.260 of Democratic

00:08:03.040 judges.

00:08:04.120 Now,

00:08:05.020 seven of those

00:08:06.000 13 courts

00:08:06.760 have Republican

00:08:07.600 majorities,

00:08:08.340 and Trump is

00:08:09.020 just getting

00:08:09.520 started.

00:08:11.260 Assuming he gets

00:08:12.100 reelected,

00:08:12.640 and right now

00:08:12.980 things are looking

00:08:13.480 pretty good,

00:08:13.880 we'll get to the

00:08:14.280 Democratic debate

00:08:15.040 in a little bit

00:08:15.840 to show you how

00:08:16.300 good it's looking.

00:08:17.900 If Trump gets

00:08:19.320 a second term,

00:08:20.180 he's going to

00:08:20.900 utterly transform

00:08:21.960 the courts,

00:08:22.440 and the courts

00:08:22.900 have been the

00:08:23.620 sore spot.

00:08:24.240 The courts

00:08:24.600 have been the

00:08:25.200 only rub for

00:08:26.080 the last 10

00:08:26.780 years of

00:08:27.820 conservative

00:08:28.440 politics.

00:08:29.840 Trump has

00:08:30.480 now had 50

00:08:31.360 circuit court

00:08:32.000 judges confirmed.

00:08:33.760 Just to put

00:08:34.480 that in perspective,

00:08:35.240 at this point

00:08:35.780 in his presidency,

00:08:37.000 Barack Obama

00:08:37.680 had only confirmed

00:08:39.140 25 circuit court

00:08:40.600 judges.

00:08:41.660 So at the

00:08:42.380 circuit level,

00:08:43.460 Trump is doubling

00:08:44.400 what Obama did.

00:08:45.420 And it's huge

00:08:46.260 because the judges

00:08:47.080 are where we've

00:08:47.660 lost the hardest.

00:08:48.620 Even Obamacare.

00:08:49.620 Don't forget

00:08:49.980 Obamacare, right?

00:08:50.660 But Obamacare,

00:08:51.940 very, very

00:08:52.500 unpopular.

00:08:53.440 You had a

00:08:55.720 Republican in

00:08:56.720 Massachusetts win

00:08:57.860 Ted Kennedy's

00:08:58.820 Senate seat

00:08:59.640 just so that he

00:09:00.720 could be the

00:09:01.060 vote against

00:09:01.700 Obamacare.

00:09:02.540 But they wheel

00:09:03.460 and deal,

00:09:03.880 and they finally

00:09:04.460 push it through

00:09:05.080 despite massive

00:09:06.320 popular opposition

00:09:07.560 to Obamacare.

00:09:09.620 It's obviously

00:09:10.940 unconstitutional.

00:09:11.800 It's the federal

00:09:12.320 government forcing

00:09:13.080 people to buy

00:09:14.680 a private service.

00:09:15.880 We've never had

00:09:16.640 that in our

00:09:16.940 nation's history.

00:09:17.540 They get it

00:09:18.760 through John

00:09:19.760 Roberts completely

00:09:20.720 caves, and we

00:09:23.580 get that Supreme

00:09:24.340 Court decision.

00:09:25.160 Then we get

00:09:25.640 Obergefell.

00:09:26.420 That was the

00:09:26.820 case that

00:09:27.200 redefined marriage

00:09:27.960 because Justice

00:09:28.540 Kennedy is

00:09:29.500 basically a

00:09:30.100 romantic poet on

00:09:31.120 the bench, and

00:09:31.620 he decided that

00:09:32.860 actually, unbeknownst

00:09:34.080 to all of us, the

00:09:34.820 Constitution defines

00:09:35.980 marriage not as it

00:09:37.360 had always been

00:09:37.880 defined throughout

00:09:38.920 all of history or as

00:09:39.800 it was understood at

00:09:40.440 the time, but as

00:09:42.300 the monogamous

00:09:43.580 union of couples

00:09:44.440 regardless of their

00:09:45.360 sex.

00:09:46.440 sex, then we 0.86

00:09:47.620 have increasingly

00:09:48.860 the redefinition of

00:09:49.800 sex on the basis

00:09:50.540 of gender ideology,

00:09:51.960 increasingly of the

00:09:52.880 erosion of our

00:09:53.600 liberties, especially

00:09:54.400 our political

00:09:54.880 liberties, all at

00:09:56.340 the judiciary, and

00:09:58.340 now Trump isn't

00:09:59.180 getting enough

00:09:59.680 credit for these

00:10:01.080 judges, right, because

00:10:01.860 people aren't paying

00:10:02.680 attention.

00:10:03.180 They don't realize

00:10:03.820 where the losses

00:10:04.480 are.

00:10:05.060 We just feel the

00:10:06.060 losses, but if you

00:10:08.500 change the judiciary,

00:10:09.680 all that goes away,

00:10:10.560 and it's so important.

00:10:11.600 I'll show you how

00:10:11.980 important it is.

00:10:12.820 Right now, there's a

00:10:13.860 story coming out of

00:10:14.620 central Iowa.

00:10:15.420 A man has been

00:10:17.560 sentenced to a

00:10:19.140 little under 16

00:10:20.180 years in prison for

00:10:22.700 burning an LGBT 1.00

00:10:24.380 rainbow flag.

00:10:26.680 His name is Adolfo

00:10:28.580 Martinez.

00:10:29.680 He's 30-year-old.

00:10:31.020 He's from Ames,

00:10:31.840 Iowa.

00:10:32.200 He was just

00:10:32.680 sentenced to over

00:10:33.360 15 years for a

00:10:36.440 hate crime.

00:10:37.760 Specifically, it was

00:10:38.720 arson and theft

00:10:40.840 because this guy,

00:10:43.680 Martinez, saw a gay 1.00

00:10:45.380 pride flag on a

00:10:46.220 church, and he

00:10:47.420 went over there.

00:10:48.040 He stole the flag.

00:10:49.240 He then lit it on

00:10:50.000 fire because he

00:10:50.800 opposes homosexuality. 0.54

00:10:53.080 All of his sentences

00:10:54.020 are going to be

00:10:54.500 served consecutively.

00:10:55.720 It is as large a

00:10:58.100 sentence as he could

00:10:58.640 possibly get.

00:11:00.400 What is the crime

00:11:01.540 here?

00:11:01.760 Obviously, stealing is 0.97

00:11:02.620 a crime, so he

00:11:03.280 should be punished

00:11:03.780 for that.

00:11:04.620 Arson is a crime,

00:11:05.620 setting it on fire.

00:11:06.420 He should be

00:11:06.740 punished for that.

00:11:07.500 But you don't get

00:11:09.360 16 years in the

00:11:10.240 clink for stealing a

00:11:11.380 flag.

00:11:11.760 You don't get 16

00:11:12.500 years in prison for

00:11:13.940 lighting a match where

00:11:15.000 you shouldn't light a

00:11:15.740 match.

00:11:16.460 You get 16 years in

00:11:17.800 prison.

00:11:18.200 You get sentenced to

00:11:18.860 the absolute maximum

00:11:20.120 allowed by law for a

00:11:22.220 hate crime.

00:11:22.980 And what is the hate

00:11:23.660 crime?

00:11:24.420 Burning the LGBT 1.00

00:11:25.640 flag.

00:11:26.580 I mean, how insane is

00:11:29.040 this situation where in

00:11:30.940 the United States, if you

00:11:31.740 burn an American flag, the 0.85

00:11:34.200 symbol of our entire

00:11:35.320 country, that's totally

00:11:37.380 fine.

00:11:38.080 You would be celebrated

00:11:39.360 by the left and by

00:11:40.800 civil libertarians for

00:11:41.800 expressing your free

00:11:42.680 speech rights.

00:11:44.080 We now know, I mean,

00:11:45.400 even Antonin Scalia

00:11:46.240 would say this, that

00:11:47.760 there is a protected

00:11:49.760 speech right in burning

00:11:51.220 an American flag.

00:11:52.220 And yet, you burn a gay 1.00

00:11:53.800 pride flag and you go to

00:11:54.700 jail for 16 years.

00:11:57.580 What would the founders

00:11:58.600 think about that?

00:12:01.280 The defense of this

00:12:02.660 sentence is that he

00:12:03.440 stole the flag.

00:12:04.200 You don't get 16 years

00:12:05.540 in prison for stealing

00:12:06.660 flags.

00:12:07.360 And the people who are

00:12:08.040 cheering this on, by the

00:12:08.860 way, are the ones who

00:12:09.940 say we need to empty the

00:12:10.860 jails and stop putting

00:12:11.640 people in jail for minor

00:12:12.620 crimes like petty theft

00:12:14.180 or drug crimes.

00:12:15.580 They're the ones saying

00:12:16.220 we need to get people out 0.66

00:12:17.300 of here, prison reform,

00:12:18.320 sentencing reform.

00:12:19.240 And they're cheering this

00:12:20.220 on that a man gets 16

00:12:21.520 years in prison for

00:12:22.580 burning a gay pride 1.00

00:12:23.880 flag.

00:12:25.320 This highlights an

00:12:26.340 important topic that

00:12:27.180 we've been talking about

00:12:27.860 for months.

00:12:28.460 And if we want the next

00:12:29.460 decade to be another

00:12:30.380 conservative decade, we're

00:12:31.620 going to have to get

00:12:32.120 this through our heads.

00:12:32.860 There are some well-meaning

00:12:34.640 people on the right who

00:12:36.300 never want the government

00:12:37.580 to advance our cultural

00:12:38.980 priorities because they

00:12:40.500 think that secular

00:12:41.860 liberalism is completely

00:12:43.280 neutral.

00:12:44.320 So what I mean by that is

00:12:45.980 you have people even on

00:12:47.380 the right who say we can

00:12:49.000 never have the government

00:12:50.200 push our idea of the

00:12:53.520 good.

00:12:54.020 We can never have the

00:12:54.800 government, say,

00:12:55.580 encourage public prayer.

00:12:57.040 We can never have the

00:12:57.900 government encourage the

00:12:58.920 mention of God like all of

00:13:00.280 our founding fathers did,

00:13:01.240 like it is on our

00:13:01.840 currency.

00:13:02.500 We can never have them

00:13:03.840 push social conservatism

00:13:06.080 because that would be

00:13:07.900 wrong.

00:13:08.580 We're no different than

00:13:09.800 how the left is when they

00:13:11.080 push their radicalism from

00:13:13.040 the government.

00:13:13.700 And therefore, what we

00:13:14.280 really need is to step back

00:13:15.480 and let the government just

00:13:16.500 be a neutral playing field

00:13:17.740 and we'll fight all of our 0.86

00:13:19.220 battles in the culture as

00:13:20.880 though there were some

00:13:21.460 neat distinction between

00:13:22.700 politics and culture.

00:13:24.680 Now, the premise here, I

00:13:27.940 guess, is you don't want any

00:13:28.860 blurring of the line between

00:13:29.940 church and state, that

00:13:31.140 that's the best way to

00:13:32.580 maintain our liberties.

00:13:33.720 But that is BS because we

00:13:36.800 do have an established

00:13:37.980 church in America.

00:13:39.160 We have the church of

00:13:40.680 leftism.

00:13:42.020 We have a secular

00:13:43.300 liturgical calendar, okay?

00:13:44.900 We have Black History

00:13:46.020 Month, which is not

00:13:47.200 actually about black

00:13:48.000 history.

00:13:48.440 It's about a leftist

00:13:49.500 version of black history.

00:13:51.160 We have Women's History 1.00

00:13:52.100 Month.

00:13:52.400 It's not about women's 1.00

00:13:53.180 history.

00:13:53.520 It's about a secular 0.99

00:13:54.700 leftist version of

00:13:56.400 women's history.

00:13:56.980 We have Pride Month

00:13:58.560 now, which isn't even

00:14:00.260 about celebrating

00:14:01.140 homosexuals anymore. 0.95

00:14:02.540 Now, there's another

00:14:03.220 month for that, which is

00:14:03.920 October.

00:14:04.720 Pride Month in June is

00:14:06.700 actually just about

00:14:07.680 celebrating pride, all

00:14:09.260 sorts of pride, fat pride,

00:14:10.360 skinny pride, all kinds

00:14:11.640 of pride.

00:14:12.620 That is a secular 0.86

00:14:13.840 liturgical calendar, just

00:14:15.560 like any church has a

00:14:16.580 liturgical calendar, okay?

00:14:18.260 We have secular saints.

00:14:19.760 We have secular sins. 0.62

00:14:21.800 I argued a few months

00:14:24.300 ago on this show, I

00:14:25.420 argued in favor of a

00:14:27.420 constitutional amendment

00:14:28.600 to prohibit flag

00:14:29.860 burning, not because I

00:14:31.080 think it's the most

00:14:31.560 important thing in the

00:14:32.240 world, not I wouldn't

00:14:33.560 stake it as my number

00:14:34.620 one priority, but I

00:14:35.880 think it would be

00:14:36.540 helpful if we came

00:14:39.820 together as a country

00:14:40.660 and said, we're not

00:14:41.720 going to let you burn

00:14:42.380 the flag because the

00:14:43.480 flag is the symbol of

00:14:44.500 the country.

00:14:45.620 My reasoning here is

00:14:47.180 if the flag is the

00:14:48.200 symbol of the country,

00:14:49.020 then we should raise

00:14:53.540 it up a little bit.

00:14:54.760 We should sanctify it

00:14:55.860 a little bit.

00:14:56.740 We should have something

00:15:00.420 shared together that is

00:15:02.100 sacred because we're

00:15:03.020 going to do that,

00:15:04.000 right?

00:15:04.760 The Declaration of

00:15:05.740 Independence.

00:15:06.500 The Declaration of

00:15:07.240 Independence declares 0.93

00:15:08.020 that we have natural

00:15:09.480 rights that we are

00:15:10.800 endowed with by our

00:15:11.760 creator.

00:15:12.760 That's a religious 0.99

00:15:13.680 statement, okay?

00:15:15.900 The state always has a

00:15:17.800 relation to the

00:15:19.320 spiritual, to the

00:15:20.320 religious.

00:15:20.960 This has been true in

00:15:21.800 every government in the

00:15:23.140 history of the world.

00:15:24.280 And so the question is,

00:15:25.540 what kind of relationship

00:15:26.560 are we going to have?

00:15:27.340 We had a very, very

00:15:28.460 delicate balance in

00:15:29.440 America.

00:15:30.200 We're the most

00:15:31.000 religiously tolerant

00:15:32.000 country that has ever

00:15:32.980 existed on earth, at

00:15:34.620 least until recently,

00:15:36.140 because the kind of

00:15:37.100 Christianity that formed

00:15:38.980 the basis of the

00:15:39.720 American religion was

00:15:41.140 much, much more

00:15:41.980 tolerant than leftism and

00:15:43.840 liberalism, which is the

00:15:44.860 current church of

00:15:45.780 America, all right?

00:15:48.040 And just these two

00:15:49.460 flags sum it up.

00:15:50.520 We are going to

00:15:51.460 sanctify something in

00:15:52.500 this country.

00:15:53.140 So either we're going

00:15:54.200 to sanctify a symbol of

00:15:55.660 our nation, the U.S.

00:15:58.160 flag, or we're going to

00:15:59.060 sanctify some other

00:15:59.940 symbol.

00:16:00.700 We're going to come

00:16:01.420 together and raise up

00:16:02.340 the stars and stripes,

00:16:03.660 or we're going to raise

00:16:04.720 up the rainbow flag.

00:16:05.780 But one of those is going

00:16:07.660 to become the cherished

00:16:08.960 symbol.

00:16:10.160 Activist judges want it to

00:16:11.460 be the latter.

00:16:12.360 I think the American people

00:16:13.520 want it to be the former,

00:16:14.500 and I think that

00:16:15.500 distinction is the key to

00:16:18.340 understanding the last

00:16:19.560 decade in politics, and I

00:16:21.320 think that is why we're

00:16:23.040 winning.

00:16:23.620 I think Obamacare was an

00:16:25.500 overreach.

00:16:26.180 I think Obergefell was an

00:16:28.040 overreach.

00:16:28.900 I think transgenderism is a 0.57

00:16:31.540 major, major overreach.

00:16:35.040 I mean, I've long said I

00:16:36.140 think this transgender 0.99

00:16:37.060 movement is the straw that

00:16:38.620 broke the camel's back of

00:16:39.660 political correctness, of

00:16:41.560 marching leftism.

00:16:44.740 This movement isn't only

00:16:46.600 happening in the United

00:16:47.440 States.

00:16:47.860 There is a popular

00:16:48.600 conservative movement that

00:16:49.960 is way bigger than the

00:16:50.940 United States.

00:16:51.560 You see it in Europe.

00:16:52.560 You see it in the United

00:16:53.540 Kingdom.

00:16:54.000 You even see it among

00:16:55.000 liberals in the United

00:16:56.120 Kingdom.

00:16:56.900 Unbelievable story out today

00:16:58.240 from the author J.K.

00:16:59.440 Rowling, who wrote the

00:17:00.720 Harry Potter books.

00:17:02.400 J.K.

00:17:02.780 Rowling is a major lib,

00:17:06.340 okay?

00:17:06.620 She's a huge liberal. 1.00

00:17:08.420 She's always tweeting about

00:17:09.460 feminist things. 1.00

00:17:10.300 Every other day, she's

00:17:11.700 making some old Harry Potter

00:17:13.020 character gay. 0.50

00:17:13.980 Like, she'll go back and

00:17:15.000 rewrite it from 15 years ago,

00:17:16.400 and all of a sudden,

00:17:17.440 Dumbledore's gay. 0.97

00:17:18.320 They're going to make the

00:17:18.840 owl gay pretty soon. 0.99

00:17:20.120 She's always adding these

00:17:21.340 kind of PC politics, but she 0.87

00:17:23.260 wouldn't go all the way with

00:17:25.040 the left.

00:17:25.500 So there's a controversy now

00:17:27.140 that J.K.

00:17:27.680 Rowling is in surrounding the

00:17:29.620 case of Maya Forstater, who is

00:17:31.980 a British scholar who lost her

00:17:34.080 job because she said that men 1.00

00:17:35.800 cannot magically become women

00:17:37.200 simply by wishing it so.

00:17:39.900 This is a British academic who

00:17:41.640 got fired from her academic job

00:17:43.520 for stating a scientific fact,

00:17:46.100 a fact of nature.

00:17:47.560 And J.K.

00:17:48.020 Rowling has come out in defense

00:17:49.440 of this woman.

00:17:50.960 J.K.

00:17:51.320 Rowling tweeted out, quote,

00:17:53.240 Dress however you please.

00:17:55.060 Call yourself whatever you like.

00:17:56.920 Sleep with any consenting adult 0.97

00:17:58.640 who will have you.

00:17:59.700 Yikes.

00:18:00.300 Sort of an underhanded compliment.

00:18:02.020 Live your best life in peace

00:18:03.400 and security, but force women 1.00

00:18:05.500 out of their jobs for stating

00:18:06.920 that sex is real.

00:18:08.480 Hashtag I stand with Maya.

00:18:09.820 Hashtag this is not a drill.

00:18:13.120 Right now, in this statement,

00:18:14.860 J.K.

00:18:15.240 Rowling is summing up the kind

00:18:17.280 of liberal worldview.

00:18:18.580 Dress whatever you want, like

00:18:19.740 whatever you want.

00:18:20.600 Call yourself whatever you want.

00:18:22.040 Sleep with everybody.

00:18:22.960 Free love.

00:18:23.380 It's fine.

00:18:24.400 But don't coerce women into lying.

00:18:28.780 Don't force women out of their

00:18:29.760 jobs for stating facts.

00:18:31.620 The important lesson here for

00:18:33.240 the whole culture, not just

00:18:34.800 conservatives.

00:18:35.580 Conservatives understood this

00:18:36.600 lesson decades ago.

00:18:38.400 But for the center, for the

00:18:39.980 center left, for the center

00:18:41.080 right, for the independents, the

00:18:42.920 important lesson here is when it

00:18:45.260 comes to leftism, it's never

00:18:47.940 enough.

00:18:49.260 It's never enough.

00:18:52.240 They will get you eventually.

00:18:54.460 They will turn on you eventually.

00:18:55.860 You can never be extreme enough.

00:18:58.640 In a way, in a sort of glass

00:19:01.320 half full way, our losses at the

00:19:03.640 judicial level this decade, which

00:19:05.060 have been significant, are almost

00:19:07.060 helpful.

00:19:08.460 Look at the 1970s.

00:19:10.500 Roe versus Wade, possibly the worst

00:19:12.800 Supreme Court decision in American

00:19:14.080 history, completely galvanized the

00:19:17.360 pro-life movement.

00:19:18.200 At the time of Roe versus Wade, all of

00:19:20.620 the public opinion in this country was

00:19:22.540 moving in the direction of supporting

00:19:24.060 abortion.

00:19:24.700 After Roe versus Wade, it completely 0.94

00:19:26.960 turned back.

00:19:27.780 Now we've basically never been more

00:19:29.920 pro-life than we are today.

00:19:31.280 And I think we're seeing this on other

00:19:33.220 cultural issues.

00:19:34.720 I think we're seeing it on what it

00:19:35.780 means to be human.

00:19:37.020 I think we're seeing it on what it

00:19:38.540 means to be a man.

00:19:40.240 I think we're seeing it on what it

00:19:42.060 means to be a conservative.

00:19:44.360 I mean, that's the debate that's been

00:19:45.400 happening now.

00:19:46.200 And in the midst of all this, they're

00:19:48.960 trying to impeach the president.

00:19:51.000 They're trying to stave all the judicial

00:19:54.220 bloodletting, basically.

00:19:55.620 Because even the Ninth Circuit, which is an

00:19:57.980 incredibly liberal court historically, even

00:20:00.300 that now is becoming a conservative

00:20:01.740 court, thanks to the Trump appointees.

00:20:03.980 In the midst of all of this, the

00:20:05.300 Democrats meet to debate what they

00:20:07.380 stand for, what their policy priorities

00:20:10.480 are, how they're going to turn this

00:20:11.800 thing around.

00:20:13.020 They have no answer.

00:20:14.400 They have no answer.

00:20:15.640 We will go through some of the

00:20:17.420 highlights.

00:20:18.020 I mean, this debate was so dumb.

00:20:20.280 You really only need to see five or six

00:20:21.880 of them.

00:20:22.560 But there are a few moments here that

00:20:24.320 show you that the Democrats are really,

00:20:26.040 really in trouble and they're, they're

00:20:28.740 basically looking at looking around the

00:20:33.240 country after the kind of destruction and

00:20:35.780 desolation of the Obama administration

00:20:37.560 that took this historic liberal victory

00:20:41.040 and then just completely squandered it.

00:20:43.880 They're looking around and they're saying,

00:20:45.360 how do we rebuild?

00:20:46.240 They don't have an answer.

00:20:47.600 The first line of the night that made me

00:20:50.800 think that the left just has no serious

00:20:54.040 vision for 2020 came from Elizabeth Warren.

00:20:57.880 Elizabeth Warren's had all the big

00:20:59.120 momentum going in for the past two

00:21:01.260 months now, right?

00:21:02.220 Elizabeth Warren came out of nowhere. 0.99

00:21:03.780 She was pretty much dead in the water 0.92

00:21:05.180 because she's Liawatha and because she

00:21:08.020 published that DNA results that show that

00:21:10.900 she's 1,000, 1,024th Native American.

00:21:13.980 Maybe she lied about her, her record at

00:21:17.920 Harvard.

00:21:18.500 She lied about her ancestry.

00:21:20.100 She lied about sending her child to public

00:21:22.300 schools.

00:21:22.660 I mean, she's just a weak candidate. 1.00

00:21:24.660 She's a damaged candidate. 1.00

00:21:26.080 She has that awful voice. 1.00

00:21:27.600 And yet she was rising in the polls because

00:21:29.740 Biden was collapsing because Bernie Sanders

00:21:32.020 had a heart attack because there was nobody

00:21:33.660 else.

00:21:34.120 She wasn't rising out of her own talent.

00:21:35.840 She was rising because the field was so,

00:21:37.920 so weak.

00:21:38.420 So Elizabeth Warren puts out her economic 0.93

00:21:40.160 plans.

00:21:41.160 She basically wants to promise everybody the

00:21:44.280 world and then pretend that their taxes

00:21:46.800 aren't going to go up.

00:21:48.640 To their credit, the moderators of this debate

00:21:51.480 came out and said, Senator Warren, how do you

00:21:54.380 respond to economists who say your plan isn't

00:21:56.580 going to work?

00:21:57.960 This is Liz Warren's answer.

00:21:59.320 This is the best she could do.

00:22:01.140 How do you answer top economists who say taxes

00:22:04.060 of this magnitude would stifle growth and

00:22:06.920 investment?

00:22:07.700 Oh, they're just wrong.

00:22:15.160 That's it.

00:22:15.900 That's the best you got.

00:22:16.840 This reminds me of this moment in 2012 when

00:22:19.760 Herman Cain, you know, the former CEO of

00:22:22.280 Godfather's Pizza, Herman Cain comes out and

00:22:25.260 he's got his 999 tax plan and the 999 plan is

00:22:29.540 going to totally revolutionize the economy.

00:22:31.280 We're going to have a ton of growth.

00:22:32.800 And a moderator at one of these debates said,

00:22:34.960 excuse me, Mr.

00:22:35.840 Cain, what do you say to the economists who

00:22:39.820 who analyzed your plan?

00:22:41.640 They say it doesn't work.

00:22:43.480 Like, what do you make of that analysis?

00:22:45.300 And Herman Cain issued, I think it's my favorite

00:22:47.680 quote from any presidential debate ever.

00:22:49.920 He said, well, the problem with their analysis is

00:22:53.220 that it is incorrect.

00:22:55.940 I thought that sums it up.

00:22:57.080 That's perfect.

00:22:57.580 The problem with their analysis is that it is

00:22:59.380 incorrect.

00:23:00.120 Liz Warren is using the same line here. 0.67

00:23:02.920 And guess what?

00:23:03.340 It didn't work out very well for Herman Cain.

00:23:05.000 I don't think it's going to work out well for

00:23:06.380 Elizabeth Warren.

00:23:07.200 You need a more serious answer than that.

00:23:08.820 You can only channel populist rage so long.

00:23:11.600 And Liz Warren's not even good at doing it 1.00

00:23:13.620 because she's actually just a lying Harvard 1.00

00:23:16.320 professor establishmentarian fraud.

00:23:18.360 So she doesn't even get the kind of thrill of

00:23:21.400 popular support.

00:23:22.340 She's more like a scolding librarian. 1.00

00:23:24.460 It's not going to work well for her.

00:23:25.980 She needs to come up with an answer to these

00:23:27.720 economists who are pointing out that her plan

00:23:29.340 is going to completely destroy growth.

00:23:31.160 I mean, just if you just look at the health

00:23:32.960 care plan alone, it's $52 trillion total over

00:23:35.860 10 years.

00:23:37.280 If you took all the wealth away from every

00:23:39.520 single billionaire in the entire country, all

00:23:41.340 621 of them, if you stole the shirt off their

00:23:44.200 backs, you would pay for basically three-fifths

00:23:47.940 of one year of that plan.

00:23:49.520 And then what?

00:23:50.580 Obviously, people's taxes are going to go up.

00:23:52.940 Businesses are going to get crushed.

00:23:54.640 Growth is going to stop.

00:23:56.120 The economy very likely would recess.

00:23:59.340 You got to answer that.

00:24:00.140 If she's not going to answer that, she's not

00:24:01.500 really going anywhere.

00:24:02.520 The biggest moment of the debate involves

00:24:04.460 Elizabeth Warren, too, because she tried to

00:24:07.460 lob an attack on Pete Buttigieg.

00:24:09.680 All of a sudden, when people are realizing how

00:24:11.420 weak Liz Warren is, especially after she 1.00

00:24:13.600 released that disastrous health care plan, now

00:24:15.980 some of the momentum is going to Mayor Pete

00:24:17.760 Buttigieg.

00:24:18.580 And so Warren wants to cut him off before he

00:24:20.820 gets too big and keep the momentum on her. 1.00

00:24:23.580 So the big moment of the debate is Warren goes

00:24:25.400 after Buttigieg, and it doesn't go the way

00:24:28.680 Liz Warren wants. 1.00

00:24:30.700 She lobs this attack. 1.00

00:24:32.100 She said, Pete Buttigieg had a big high-dollar

00:24:35.180 fundraiser in a wine cave, and that's not the kind

00:24:38.540 of representation America needs.

00:24:40.320 Buttigieg completely flips it around and uses

00:24:42.740 the attack against her.

00:24:44.180 Mayor just recently had a fundraiser that was

00:24:48.040 held in a wine cave full of crystals and served

00:24:52.660 $900 a bottle of wine.

00:24:56.520 Think about who comes to that.

00:24:58.860 He had promised that every fundraiser he would

00:25:01.380 do would be open door, but this one was closed

00:25:04.640 door.

00:25:04.980 We made the decision many years ago that rich

00:25:09.720 people in smoke-filled rooms would not pick the

00:25:12.940 next president of the United States.

00:25:15.740 Billionaires in wine caves should not pick the

00:25:19.740 next president of the United States.

00:25:21.880 Mr. Mayor, your response.

00:25:23.740 You know, according to Forrest Magazine, I am

00:25:26.480 literally the only person on this stage who's not a 0.78

00:25:29.580 millionaire or a billionaire.

00:25:30.840 So if this is important, this is the problem with

00:25:36.600 issuing purity tests you cannot yourself pass.

00:25:40.300 That is a great line.

00:25:43.240 This is the problem with issuing purity tests that you

00:25:45.700 cannot yourself pass.

00:25:47.060 He didn't get in the mud.

00:25:48.320 He didn't start calling her crooked Elizabeth.

00:25:50.120 He didn't start really getting personal because he doesn't

00:25:52.760 have the gravitas for that.

00:25:53.800 He's a young kid.

00:25:54.520 He looks like Alfred E.

00:25:55.360 Newman.

00:25:55.740 He's a mayor of a small town.

00:25:56.900 He's got to play earnest.

00:25:58.460 He can't come from a position that's too aggressive.

00:26:02.640 But he points out that she's a total hypocrite on this. 0.93

00:26:05.380 She's worth a lot more money than he is.

00:26:08.160 Then it came out, by the way, that last year, at a

00:26:10.220 fundraiser last year, Elizabeth Warren also hosted a big

00:26:13.440 dollar wine fundraiser.

00:26:15.480 And actually the gift, if you gave over $1,000 to her, was a

00:26:19.400 souvenir wine bottle.

00:26:20.720 So the attack is just completely disingenuous.

00:26:23.040 That's the hallmark of Liz Warren's political career, though, is this

00:26:26.440 shamelessness and this cynicism.

00:26:29.160 She'll be whatever she she wants or whatever her audience wants her to 0.99

00:26:33.800 be.

00:26:34.860 Pete Buttigieg coming out and attacking her for it.

00:26:38.880 Now, is Buttigieg the strong candidate?

00:26:41.360 I don't think so.

00:26:42.660 Pete Buttigieg has basically zero black support.

00:26:46.260 I have a number of friends and family members who like Pete Buttigieg.

00:26:49.620 And to a person, they are all upper middle class whites who live in urban

00:26:54.920 areas.

00:26:56.100 That is not how you cobble together a winning political coalition, especially

00:26:59.940 when multiple polls are showing that President Trump is making huge inroads

00:27:03.920 among black voters and among Hispanic voters.

00:27:06.380 The Emerson poll put Trump's black support at 34.5%.

00:27:10.280 Now, call that an outlier poll.

00:27:11.720 Fine.

00:27:12.340 Other polls are showing 30%, high 20s.

00:27:15.380 Among Hispanic voters, you're looking at 38%.

00:27:18.260 If Trump gets even 15 or 20% of the black vote, significantly lower than the

00:27:24.580 polls are showing, then the Democrats are done.

00:27:26.760 So they need a candidate who can appeal to those voters.

00:27:29.180 They form the basis of their, they form the foundation of their base.

00:27:36.040 So now Buttigieg is on shaky ground.

00:27:37.980 Well, what about Bernie?

00:27:39.060 Okay.

00:27:39.360 Bernie's been around a long time.

00:27:41.000 He's been around at least, what, three, 400 years at this point.

00:27:43.380 And maybe Bernie will be the guy who can, can finally push this race into the

00:27:49.040 mainstream, except he can't.

00:27:51.640 Bernie Sanders was asked a question on race.

00:27:55.380 He's got the same race problem Buttigieg does.

00:27:57.360 He just has very, very low black support.

00:27:59.780 And they said, how do you respond to this question on race?

00:28:02.140 And Bernie Sanders tried to turn it to global warming. 1.00

00:28:04.800 Listen to how pathetic this is.

00:28:06.680 Senator Sanders, I do want to put the same question to you, Senator Sanders.

00:28:10.120 What message do you think?

00:28:10.860 I don't want to answer that question, but I wanted to get back to the issue of climate

00:28:15.280 change for a moment, because I do believe this is the existential issue.

00:28:20.380 Senator, with all respect, this question is about race.

00:28:22.820 Can you answer the question as it was asked?

00:28:25.100 Yes, I certainly can.

00:28:28.740 Because people of color, in fact, are going to be the people suffering most if we do not

00:28:35.880 deal with climate change.

00:28:37.300 Ah, what a horrible response, Bernie.

00:28:42.480 They say that a fanatic is someone who can't change his mind and won't change the subject.

00:28:47.760 That is what the left has become on their religion du jour, environmentalism.

00:28:52.220 The answer to everything is the Green New Deal. 0.90

00:28:54.560 It's global warming.

00:28:55.520 It's the world is about to end.

00:28:56.860 It all comes together in the totalizing plan of the Green New Deal, which includes socialist 0.80

00:29:02.720 health care, job guarantee program, reparations for slavery, massive redistribution of wealth.

00:29:07.760 That's their answer for everything.

00:29:10.080 But if you want to appeal to the American people, first of all, you can't pick this one very esoteric

00:29:17.240 issue that most people don't even think is happening or is really threatening to destroy

00:29:21.540 our civilization.

00:29:22.480 But two, if they ask you about something else, you've got to know how to change the subject.

00:29:27.760 You can't say, hey, Bernie, you have this big weakness when it comes to race.

00:29:31.760 How are you going to address that?

00:29:33.160 Global warming.

00:29:34.900 Bernie, respectfully, we're not talking about that now.

00:29:37.100 We're talking about race.

00:29:38.280 What do you say about race?

00:29:39.580 Global warming is important to race. 1.00

00:29:41.780 No, that's not going to go anywhere.

00:29:44.180 So Bernie, it's not looking great.

00:29:46.180 Now, some people are saying we might have the Amy Klobuchar moment.

00:29:49.860 Amy Klobuchar is a Midwestern. 0.99

00:29:53.560 She's moderate.

00:29:54.460 She's a woman. 0.82

00:29:55.180 She checks a lot of boxes.

00:29:56.460 Maybe Amy Klobuchar is going to break through. 1.00

00:29:59.080 I think that's probably unlikely.

00:30:00.680 We'll hear from her in a second, and then we'll get to the kingpin himself, Joe Biden,

00:30:03.840 and look at how the Biden campaign is heading into 2020.

00:30:08.180 Because he made a big decision at this debate, and nobody is reporting on it, but it actually

00:30:13.820 is the most significant strategic change that the Biden campaign has made to date.

00:30:18.540 We'll get to that in a second.

00:30:19.600 We'll get to Christianity Today endorsing the removal of President Trump from office,

00:30:23.300 and we will get to some myths about Christmas.

00:30:27.240 There's one in particular that drives me crazy.

00:30:29.540 We will clear that up before we head into Christmas and New Year's.

00:30:34.080 But first, my friends, listen up.

00:30:35.920 I am about to save you time and money this Christmas season.

00:30:40.180 I am doing that for you out of the goodness of my heart.

00:31:27.980 You're going to need that Tumblr, or you're going to drown.

00:31:30.240 Go to dailywire.com.

00:31:31.320 We'll be right back with a lot more.

00:31:45.100 So Warren looking weak.

00:31:47.500 Buttigieg, he's got some momentum, but it looks like he's got some pretty fatal weaknesses on his campaign,

00:31:54.460 specifically his appeal to minority voters.

00:31:57.560 Bernie Sanders, pretty much the same thing.

00:31:59.320 Also, Bernie, especially at this debate, just came off as a screaming old man,

00:32:02.940 so he would be very, very old.

00:32:05.660 He'd be, what, 82 by the end of his first term.

00:32:07.960 It's just not looking great.

00:32:09.320 So how about Klobuchar?

00:32:10.520 Is this the Klobuchar moment? 0.84

00:32:12.360 It could be.

00:32:13.060 She has the policy preferences that would appeal to a vast majority of people.

00:32:18.520 She's got the sex that would appeal to Democrats because she's not a straight white man. 1.00

00:32:24.200 She's a straight white woman, but, you know, at least that gives you one intersectional box. 1.00

00:32:27.560 She's from the Midwest.

00:32:28.580 She's from an important area.

00:32:31.200 And yet, she's just so stiff and unappealing.

00:32:35.860 Here, if I had to sum up the Amy Klobuchar campaign in 30 seconds,

00:32:42.520 it would be these clips from the debate of Amy Klobuchar trying to make a joke,

00:32:47.680 trying to seem human, and just falling flat.

00:32:51.180 We have not had enough women in our government. 1.00

00:32:54.160 When I was on Trevor Noah's show once, I explained how in the history of the Senate,

00:32:59.140 there was something like 2,000 men and only 50 women in the whole history.

00:33:03.440 And he said if a nightclub had numbers that bad, they would shut it down.

00:33:07.320 And I have never even been to a wine cave.

00:33:10.100 I've been to the Wind Cave in South Dakota, which I suggest you go to.

00:33:16.120 What?

00:33:17.860 That's the pun you're going to?

00:33:19.180 I've never been to a wine cave.

00:33:21.220 I've been to the Wind Cave, which is a place you've never heard of in a place you've never visited,

00:33:28.040 which has nothing to do with what we're talking about.

00:33:30.420 Is that how you joke?

00:33:31.300 Is that a joke?

00:33:34.040 That's that meme of looking at the butterfly?

00:33:36.420 Is this what a joke is?

00:33:37.540 That's not a joke.

00:33:38.840 The first time she tries to make a joke in the debate, she doesn't even make the joke herself.

00:33:43.660 She just quotes an actual comedian telling a joke in her presence.

00:33:49.920 She said, I was on Trevor Noah's show,

00:33:52.300 and he said that if the ratio of men and women in the history of the Senate

00:33:56.560 were the ratio of men and women in a bar, the bar would close. 0.99

00:33:59.600 Beep, boop, beep, beep, boop. 0.99

00:34:01.440 Is that a joke?

00:34:02.900 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:34:04.140 No.

00:34:04.580 And I know this seems like a trivial point.

00:34:07.100 I know this seems minor.

00:34:08.280 It's like, well, not everyone is Don Rickles.

00:34:10.580 But first of all, when you're running against President Trump,

00:34:14.020 you kind of need Don Rickles.

00:34:15.160 Like, the guy is so entertaining that you really do need to have a lot of personality.

00:34:19.640 Generally speaking, in the history of the U.S. presidency, the bigger personality wins.

00:34:23.620 The more memorable personality wins.

00:34:25.520 But also what it shows with Klobuchar is she just doesn't have her finger on the pulse of people.

00:34:30.260 She doesn't know how to relate to people.

00:34:31.960 She doesn't know what makes people tick.

00:34:33.780 She doesn't know what makes people laugh.

00:34:35.360 If you can make people laugh, there's a good chance you understand what motivates them.

00:34:39.460 You understand their psychology and their nature a little bit better than the person who just can't relate.

00:34:45.960 So, right, you're going to hear a lot of talk over the next few weeks of maybe this is Klobuchar's moment.

00:34:51.700 Maybe she's going to take off.

00:34:53.480 Yeah, maybe she will.

00:34:54.380 I wouldn't bet on it.

00:34:56.220 Then you get to Joe Biden.

00:34:57.500 He's the last one.

00:34:58.440 He's still the big dog.

00:34:59.700 At this point, he's probably the nominee.

00:35:03.040 Joe Biden is past his sell-by date.

00:35:07.740 There's actually one moment.

00:35:08.860 I want to give a little bit of credit to Joe Biden because there is this hilarious exchange that shows the difference between the kind of democratic leftist insurgency and old Joe who's been around for 50 years.

00:35:23.000 And it comes when he's asked a question about Afghanistan.

00:35:26.420 And the moderator asked the question and she decides to pronounce it Afghanistan.

00:35:30.940 And Biden is so old, both in his kind of worldview and just in his body, that he doesn't even know what she's talking about.

00:35:40.420 What country are you talking about?

00:35:42.520 Afghanistan?

00:35:43.300 Here it is.

00:35:44.000 Vice President Biden, let's turn now to Afghanistan.

00:35:47.180 Confidential documents published last week by the Washington Post revealed that for years, senior U.S. officials misled the public about the war in Afghanistan.

00:35:58.600 As vice president, what did you know?

00:36:01.320 Afghanistan, you said?

00:36:02.380 Yes, sir.

00:36:02.840 Afghanistan.

00:36:03.420 That's it.

00:36:03.820 I actually want to compliment Biden because he is translating for the American people from liberal into American.

00:36:15.020 The left always does this.

00:36:16.780 The left always pronounces foreign words as if they themselves don't speak English.

00:36:22.660 And Afghanistan is the new one, but they've done it for a long time. 0.89

00:36:25.940 You heard Barack Obama do it with Pakistan. 0.88

00:36:28.800 So he'd be talking like a completely normal person.

00:36:31.200 Obviously, Barack Obama is a very eloquent speaker.

00:36:33.380 And then he'd get to the word Pakistan and he would say, and you know, we've got a lot of our friends in Pakistan.

00:36:39.580 He'd say, why are you pronouncing it like that?

00:36:41.900 Or the left always does it with Muslim. 1.00

00:36:44.420 Instead of saying Muslim, which is how you pronounce that word in English, they'll say Muslim.

00:36:48.960 We're like, well, you know, and because of the Muslims in Pakistan.

00:36:52.760 It's like, why is your accent shifting?

00:36:55.340 Now they're doing it with Afghanistan. 0.98

00:36:57.080 And she makes a point of pronouncing it that way, like multiple times.

00:37:00.500 Then Joe Biden's there and he can barely hear anything.

00:37:02.500 What?

00:37:03.120 Sorry, hold on.

00:37:03.800 What's that?

00:37:04.480 That's the new liberal way to pronounce Afghanistan.

00:37:06.800 Yes, Mr. Vice President, Afghanistan.

00:37:09.440 I don't do this when I speak.

00:37:13.240 If I go to an Italian restaurant, look, I am Italian.

00:37:16.380 All right, I speak Italian.

00:37:17.500 I've spent a lot of time in Italy.

00:37:18.920 If I go to an Italian restaurant in America, right, you go down in New York somewhere.

00:37:23.860 I don't sit down and say, oh, hey, waiter.

00:37:28.580 Yeah, I'll get a glass of red wine and some of those breadsticks.

00:37:32.840 That'd be great.

00:37:33.840 And then I'll have a bowl of spaghetti alla carbonara, per favore.

00:37:38.360 Yeah, that's you got it.

00:37:39.520 The red wine and the garlicky breadsticks.

00:37:42.760 Those are really good.

00:37:44.000 And yeah, then I'll have spaghetti alla carbonara.

00:37:46.800 Grazie con gli rapini.

00:37:48.660 No, you don't do that.

00:37:49.820 You say, I'll have the spaghetti carbonara.

00:37:51.540 Thanks.

00:37:52.960 Because you're in America and you're speaking English and that's what you do. 0.94

00:37:55.560 But the left, they don't do it.

00:37:56.920 Like, I don't, what are you, they do it at all these sort of Mexican restaurants.

00:38:01.200 And especially when they're talking about the Middle East.

00:38:03.320 So I like that Biden was just having none of it.

00:38:04.840 He's just so tired and he's just so sick of this campaign.

00:38:07.620 And it's like the most joyless slog that I've seen to the presidency since Hillary Clinton.

00:38:11.740 And that didn't work out well for her.

00:38:14.020 But the reason I bring up the Afghanistan moment is not just to highlight this kind of funny pronunciation thing.

00:38:20.720 It's because Joe Biden at this debate made a pretty major strategic shift.

00:38:28.680 He's now going after Obama.

00:38:31.720 He's now distancing himself from Obama.

00:38:33.840 He's doing it very subtly, but he's doing it nonetheless.

00:38:36.920 Joe Biden, until this moment, has had one major campaign message.

00:38:43.240 And that message is, I was friends with Barack Obama.

00:38:46.980 That's the message.

00:38:48.020 My good friend, Barack Obama.

00:38:49.300 I served with Barack Obama.

00:38:50.580 I did what Obama wanted me to do.

00:38:52.320 The closer I can appear to be to Barack Obama, the better chance I have of getting the nomination.

00:38:57.880 Now he's not doing that.

00:38:59.120 He was asked about Afghanistan.

00:39:00.740 Surging troops in Afghanistan was Barack Obama's signature foreign policy contribution for the 2008 campaign.

00:39:11.060 And what Joe Biden answers on Afghanistan is, I opposed it.

00:39:16.160 It was a dumb idea.

00:39:17.380 I don't think we should have done it.

00:39:18.680 Here's Joe.

00:39:19.700 Vice President, what did you know about the state of the war?

00:39:23.940 And do you believe that you were honest with the American people about it?

00:39:27.080 The reason I can speak to this, it's well known, if any of you followed it, my view on Afghanistan.

00:39:33.780 I was sent by the president before we got sworn in to Afghanistan to come back with a report.

00:39:38.520 I said there was no comprehensive policy available.

00:39:41.480 And then I got in a big fight for a long time with the Pentagon because I strongly opposed the nation-building notion we set about.

00:39:50.180 Rebuilding that country as a whole nation is beyond our capacity.

00:39:54.500 Look, it's an ambitious move.

00:39:57.380 I mean, he's basically saying, look, Barack, you keep attacking me implicitly, and so I'm going to stop pretending to be good friends with you.

00:40:05.260 I mean, it's been one indignity after another from Obama to Biden.

00:40:09.080 Obama would not endorse him right out the bat.

00:40:11.360 That was pretty rough for Joe Biden.

00:40:13.400 Then Barack Obama just came out and he said, old men cause all the problems in the world and they shouldn't run for office anymore and only women should be in office. 0.52

00:40:20.620 I mean, that's a pretty marked attack at Joe Biden.

00:40:24.760 And now Joe Biden says, I'm not going to take it anymore.

00:40:27.520 I'm going to distance myself.

00:40:28.600 So will that pay off?

00:40:31.040 The trouble with this strategy, while it might give Biden a little bit more dignity, is that Joe Biden has nothing other than his relationship with Barack Obama.

00:40:39.080 He's been a doofus his entire political career.

00:40:41.280 And I mean that not just insultingly to throw a mean term around.

00:40:44.980 I mean it very technically.

00:40:46.560 He's just been kind of nothing.

00:40:48.660 He's a glad-handing politician who stands for nothing.

00:40:51.200 The one legislative accomplishment he's got, the crime bill in 1994, which was a good law, he has to distance himself from in this primary.

00:40:58.800 So what's he got?

00:41:01.040 Why would you elect him?

00:41:02.380 And he dropped out in 1988 because he was a liar, because he was a plagiarist.

00:41:05.800 He lost in 2008 because he didn't stand for anything.

00:41:08.420 Why is he going to be better now that he's 77 years old?

00:41:12.900 It's not going to work.

00:41:14.220 I mean, just to drive this point home, at one point in the debate, Joe Biden thought that the way that I can really jump out here is by doing my best impression of a stuttering child.

00:41:23.940 I have a call list of somewhere between 20 and 100 people that we call at least every week or every month to sell them, I'm here.

00:41:32.320 I give them my private phone number.

00:41:33.920 They keep in touch with me.

00:41:34.980 The little kid who says, I can't talk.

00:41:39.860 What do I do?

00:41:41.580 I have scores of these young women and men.

00:41:44.580 If you have trouble talking, if you have trouble getting coherent thoughts out of your head through words, Joe Biden, probably not the best guy to ask for advice, but it just shows you.

00:41:53.340 People are attacking Biden because they say that he's mocking a child.

00:41:57.200 I don't think he's mocking a child.

00:41:58.420 I don't think this experience actually ever even happened.

00:42:01.080 I don't think a stuttering child came up to him and spoke that way, and he had this really heartfelt moment with him.

00:42:05.680 I just think Joe Biden has no regard for the truth.

00:42:09.500 The only tool he has at his disposal is this saccharine, sentimental, trying to paint these rosy, sympathetic pictures.

00:42:18.020 And that falls flat, and it falls awkward, and he doesn't stand for much.

00:42:22.520 So that's the state of the current Democratic presidential candidates heading into 2020.

00:42:28.200 It's been a rough decade for them, and it looks like the next one might be too.

00:42:32.120 On our front, before we go, I want to make a couple points about Christmas.

00:42:36.340 First of all, Christianity Today, which is a major evangelical magazine that was founded by Billy Graham, has come out and supported Trump's removal from office.

00:42:48.160 The headline of the editorial says, Trump should be removed from office.

00:42:52.260 It's time to say what we said 20 years ago when a president's character was revealed for what it was.

00:42:58.080 The piece goes on.

00:42:59.280 To the many evangelicals who continue to support Mr. Trump in spite of his blackened moral record, we might say this.

00:43:04.740 Remember who you are and whom you serve.

00:43:07.520 Consider how your justification of Mr. Trump influences your witness to your Lord and Savior.

00:43:12.880 Can we say with a straight face that abortion is a great evil that cannot be tolerated? 1.00

00:43:17.020 And with the same straight face, say that the bent and broken character of our nation's leader doesn't really matter in the end?

00:43:24.560 Yes, we can say that.

00:43:26.100 We can say that it is more important to reduce abortion and to set up a judicial culture that will likely curb abortion than it is to worry about Trump sleeping with Stormy Daniels 15 years ago.

00:43:39.800 15 years ago.

00:43:42.200 It's more important.

00:43:43.580 Get your priorities in order.

00:43:45.220 What a stupid, stupid editorial.

00:43:48.820 The editor-in-chief, Mark Galley of Christianity Today, he's stepping down.

00:43:53.000 He'd already announced his retirement.

00:43:55.280 But it is kind of ironic that the only one being removed from office as a result of this is the editor-in-chief of Christianity Today.

00:44:01.860 Franklin Graham, whose father, Billy, started the magazine, he absolutely eviscerated them.

00:44:06.680 Franklin Graham said,

00:44:07.400 Christianity Today released an editorial stating that President Trump should be removed from office, and they invoked my father's name, I suppose, to try to bring legitimacy to their statements.

00:44:16.280 So I feel it's important for me to respond.

00:44:18.680 Yes, my father, Billy Graham, founded Christianity Today, but no, he would not agree with their opinion piece.

00:44:24.240 He believed that Donald J. Trump was the man for this hour in history for our nation.

00:44:28.380 And that's kind of the point here.

00:44:31.000 It shows you a big divide.

00:44:32.480 You know, the people who run this magazine, the editorial board, who go to nice cocktail parties, they think we have to remove Trump from office because why?

00:44:41.660 Because he sends mean tweets or something.

00:44:44.120 Obviously, he didn't commit an impeachable offense.

00:44:47.120 The Democrats don't even really pretend that he did.

00:44:49.180 That's why they dropped the bribery charge.

00:44:50.500 The readership of Christianity Today, Furious, the son, Franklin Graham, of the founder of Christianity Today, Furious, because they have their priorities in order.

00:44:59.320 And we should, too, as we look back on the decade.

00:45:01.480 It's been a good decade for conservatives.

00:45:03.780 We were on the brink in 2009.

00:45:07.020 Major, major health care plan.

00:45:08.480 Barack Obama, transformative, radical president.

00:45:11.480 We were on the brink.

00:45:13.680 And starting in 2010, we came back.

00:45:17.820 The Tea Party was elected.

00:45:19.280 They immediately thwarted Barack Obama's biggest initiatives.

00:45:22.920 We thwarted Hillary Clinton in 2016.

00:45:25.780 The courts dealt us some blows, but now we are reshaping the courts.

00:45:29.140 And speaking of that, speaking of winning, I want to point out in the spirit of the season, we're even winning the war on Christmas.

00:45:37.020 We are winning the war.

00:45:37.980 Christmas is back.

00:45:39.360 People aren't renaming Christmas trees holiday trees anymore.

00:45:42.020 More people are saying Merry Christmas.

00:45:44.160 We're not pretending that Kwanzaa is a thing anymore.

00:45:46.480 Kwanzaa is just a made-up holiday from a Cal State Los Angeles professor that has no historical or religious significance.

00:45:55.260 It's just socialism with a little race hustling mixed in. 0.58

00:45:58.560 And it was invented by a guy who repeatedly tortured and sexually assaulted women.

00:46:03.860 It's just nothing.

00:46:05.080 Nobody celebrates it.

00:46:06.840 It's Christmas.

00:46:07.720 It's Christmas season.

00:46:08.400 We're even winning that.

00:46:09.100 Before we go, I want to clear up a little myth about Christmas, just a little nugget of Christmas knowledge you can spread around your family's festivities.

00:46:18.940 There is a myth that has gone around for a long time now that Christmas isn't really Christmas, that Christmas being celebrated on December 25th is really just a sort of pagan invention.

00:46:30.080 And it was a way for the early Christians to try to win over the hearts and minds of the pagans that were in ancient Rome and outside of ancient Rome.

00:46:39.520 And there's just no evidence for that whatsoever.

00:46:42.140 So there are three pagan holidays that are also around this time.

00:46:45.820 Saturnalia, the festival of Saturn, Sol Invictus, the unconquered sun, and Mithras.

00:46:52.060 And they're saying basically that the early Christians just chose randomly December 25th, not because Jesus was born that day or because they earnestly believed he was born that day, but to appeal to the pagans.

00:47:04.280 Saturnalia is the only one of those that was celebrated a full two centuries or more before Christmas.

00:47:09.940 So that's around the same time.

00:47:12.360 That is a bit of a coincidence.

00:47:13.980 There are no contemporary sources linking the two holidays.

00:47:17.100 You would think if the early Christians, who wrote a lot and they wrote a lot to each other, were really conscious about trying to pick this date to appeal to the pagans, you think one of them would have written it down somewhere, don't you?

00:47:26.860 One of them would have been mentioned in the many historical records.

00:47:29.200 We don't have any record of that.

00:47:30.840 In terms of Sol Invictus and Mithras, it's even less tenable.

00:47:34.840 Sol Invictus, the unconquered sun, was not even celebrated annually, and it came about after Christmas.

00:47:40.940 So you had Christmas celebrations on or around December 25th before you had widespread Sol Invictus celebrations.

00:47:48.840 If anything, it was a pagan response to Christmas.

00:47:52.560 The likeliest reason for the celebration of Christmas on December 25th actually just comes from Christianity itself and from an ancient view of divinity.

00:48:04.820 So the best theory we have, we don't know for certain, there are a few other theories, but the most likely one we have, which serious academics believe is the strongest scholarly explanation for it,

00:48:19.440 is that at that time, at the time of the early Christians, it was believed that divine life would have to begin and end on the same day,

00:48:30.720 that it was right, that it was seemly for the life to begin and end in a perfect year.

00:48:38.980 So Christ is 33 years old when he dies, that's what it's got to be.

00:48:41.760 So since the second century, since the time of Tertullian, March 25th was believed to be the date of the crucifixion.

00:48:51.260 The crucifixion and the death of Christ.

00:48:55.600 That would mean that it would also have to be the date of the annunciation or the conception of Christ,

00:49:01.420 when the angel comes down and tells Mary, you will be taken with the Holy Spirit and conceive a child.

00:49:06.740 Now, if you're conceived on March 25th, nine months later, you get the birth of December 25th.

00:49:15.320 That is a belief that we have had for over 1800 years.

00:49:18.860 So when people tell you that Christmas being celebrated on December 25th was just some invention of the Middle Ages or something like that,

00:49:24.780 or they'll say at the same time, even though it's contradictory, that it was just a way to appeal to pagans or something.

00:49:31.320 That really isn't the case.

00:49:32.660 Was Christ born on December 25th?

00:49:34.460 Some of the early church fathers suggested other dates.

00:49:38.640 You know, there was some debate about this.

00:49:40.800 But for virtually the entire history of Christianity, the church has decided that it was on or around December 25th.

00:49:49.000 That's good enough for me.

00:49:50.300 And without any other evidence to the contrary, that seems about right to me,

00:49:54.220 that that was really the date that Christ was born or might as well be the date that Christ was born,

00:49:59.180 that it really happened.

00:50:00.120 And that's such an important aspect of this season, is that it really happened.

00:50:04.340 It tells us something real.

00:50:06.220 And as we head into 2020, we're going to be looking at real things, not the kind of imaginary losses,

00:50:14.880 the imaginary hopelessness of the conservative cause,

00:50:17.500 the imaginary fake news that is constantly being reported.

00:50:20.760 We're looking at real things.

00:50:21.920 And I think the reality bodes very well for us.

00:50:24.140 Merry Christmas.
