It really is a shame that the truth is perceived as an extreme position.
Racism is worse than ever. Violence is worse than ever. The economy\'s worse than ever. Unemployment\'s worse than ever. And it\'s Democrats that have been running the show, with the first African-American president at the top of the heap, and it didn\'t get any better?
The economy and its dismal status is the result of policy decisions that Obama has made and put into place. It\'s not the quirk of fate. It\'s not that America\'s best days are over. It\'s not that America\'s past was a fad or a quirk. It\'s not that the great economic days of the eighties were illegitimate or unreal. It\'s not that this is the new normal. It\'s not that all of the greatness in the past was undeserved. It is precisely because of Obama policies implemented since 2009 that this country is in the shape it\'s in.
Millennials do not know their country at war. They don\'t see militant Islam as evil. They don\'t see Islamic terrorism as evil. If they\'re 30, 911, 2001, they were teenagers, there\'s been so much propaganda about that. The United States largely has been blamed for these acts of terror, presidents like Bush with their torture have created terrorists and so forth. They\'ve really been given a dose of anti-Americanism, well, I think since they first started going to school but it intensified once they got to high school and college.
My rebellion was telling my dad, \"No, you\'re wrong, you don\'t know what\'s best for me. I\'m not gonna waste my time in college.\" You know the story. He thought he was an abject failure \'cause he didn\'t convince me to go to college. I didn\'t rebel against my dad\'s economic status. I didn\'t rebel against what I thought were old-fashioned, archaic moral values. I didn\'t rebel by going out and wrecking the car and getting drunk and being irresponsible. I rebelled against their assumption they knew better than I did, what I wanted, and what I needed.
Let\'s not forget something on this prosecuting Hillary [Clinton] business. It\'s not just [Donald] Trump supporters. Bernie Sanders supporters are gonna be among those who are not happy to hear this.
We are living in a Millennial culture that is attacking \"patriarchy.\" The culture in America as zeroed in, and it\'s been going on and it\'s been building since the modern era of the feminazis began, since the late sixties and early seventies.
Even though all that CO2 has been spewed and belched into the atmosphere, there isn\'t any warming. Therefore, the person, people, whatever, predicting global warming for any reason have been wrong for 20 consecutive years. Every year for 20 years the supporters of this theory have been wrong, as wrong as it\'s possible to be. That means that the person predicting global warming is not credible and does not deserve to be listened to.
The media have literally no negative effect on Donald Trump. No matter what he says, no matter how he says what he says, no matter what he does, it gets covered.
I think we\'re in store for a presidency [of Donald Trump] even more unlike any that people have been imagining. I think it\'s gonna be tough to predict this and to analyze it, certainly in contemporary, traditional terms.
I think anybody currently running for the presidency on the Republican side by default would be a huge improvement over Obama in every area, including foreign policy and the use of the military.
It is clear that many of [Republicans] do not want to try to keep Hillary Clinton out of the White House. So if it\'s not important to keep her out of the White House, why is it important to elect you?
It\'s risky because any number of things are going to happen that nobody can foresee. But right now everybody is the left is playing to type. They are behaving exactly as you could predict. They\'re children.
If somebody comes up and says, \"[Barack] Obama was born in Kenya,\" the story becomes, \"Will Obama succeed in refuting this charge and then can we make these villains making the charge look like reprobates?\" No examination of the allegation or examination of the issues.
Th left laugh at the idea that you think we might have been on the verge of losing America. They laugh at it. So if they don\'t understand that, if they mock that, laugh at that, they\'re never going to understand Trump or why people voted for him. There\'s no way they can.
Herein, folks, lies the answer of [Donald] Trump\'s success. In other words, the media covers things as stories that you would read about in a book or watch in a movie or a television show - and in this case, in the Republican primary, Trump was not the villain.
You and I make the mistake of assuming that the Republican Party doesn\'t like the media. You and I make the mistake of assuming the Republican Party is as suspicious and distrustful of the media as you and I are, but they\'re not.
I have a question for Republicans running for the House and the Senate. I\'m asking this question with genuine sincerity: Why should people vote for you? It\'s clear that you don\'t want to stop Hillary Clinton.
Every time a Republican wins the White House, whenever Republicans win control of Congress, the Drive-Bys always claim that the message is voters want a balanced and divided government.
The Democrats are not seeking reelection on anything good. And everything bad that\'s happening is the result of Democrats having won elections and implementing their beliefs. It\'s not fate. It\'s not by accident. It\'s not coincidence. It\'s not the result of cosmic forces working against us. It is because specifically of policies, legislation, ideas, whatever you want to call it, implemented, put into action by this administration.
[Kellyanne Conway]taking [Jennifer] Palmieri to school. You had a lousy candidate, you\'ve got a candidate who\'s arrogant and aloof and didn\'t even campaign in states she thought she was gonna be coronated in. She thinks she\'s better than everybody else.
I guarantee you [Hillary Clinton] is smoking in humiliation over the idea that she needs to heal and that [Donald] Trump\'s the guy to do it. That was great.
Obama\'s devastating America. The policies put in place and those that are gonna be put in place are gonna do even more damage. I mean, it\'s serious what he\'s doing. Did you see this? The IRS announced that the family health care premium, once Obamacare is implemented, is $20,000 a year. You were told your premium was gonna go down $2,500 a year! The average family premium is going to be $20,000 a year. I guarantee you, people didn\'t vote for that.
[Hillary Clinton] is now lost two times in a row, is the message that [Kellyanne] Conway was sending. But to the Clinton camp, the campaign\'s never over. It\'s gonna continue \'cause then you\'re raising money for the foundation. She\'s floating the fact she might run again in 2020.
If a bunch of activists want to create the concept of \"gay infertility\" and then tax all the rest of us to compensate them for the fact that they can\'t have babies, then that\'s gonna happen. You haven\'t missed anything yet. I\'m just teasing you as to what\'s coming. Gays now think it\'s not fair they can\'t have babies, so they\'re calling that \"infertility,\" and it will require mandatory health insurance because of it. Yeah, I know they\'re not infertile but that doesn\'t matter; they can\'t have babies.
Let me tell you what\'s really delicious about this [Donald] Trump announcement they\'re not gonna prosecute. They\'re also saying something else. They\'re saying, \"No, we\'re gonna help [Hillary Clinton] heal.\"
[Donald] Trump wanted the nomination, and all these other Republicans and their supporters didn\'t want Trump to have the nomination. So who became the villains? What Trump wanted became the story. \"Will he get it? Will Trump get to 1,237?\" Did not Ted Cruz become a villain in the middle of this by virtue of trying to stop the hero by getting delegates in all of the state conventions?
The Democrats were losing elections everywhere, except when Obama was on the ballot - and that is the racial component.
Jennifer [Palmieri], could it possibly be that Hillary Clinton just doesn\'t connect with people, that she just doesn\'t relate to people, that Hillary Clinton doesn\'t have anything in common with anybody?
Did it ever strike you, Jennifer [Palmieri], that maybe [Hillary Clinton] is a lousy candidate?
