  Speaker 1: At one point in my trip in Cleveland, which is
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: well documented in my first book, You were Wrong and
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: You're Ugly. It was two days after I started the
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: partying on Friday night, and I hadn't told Danielle yet
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: why I wasn't coming home, and I had a little
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: bit of drugs left in my pocket, and I wanted
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: to kill myself.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Did that thought actually all through your mind?
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: More than a thought?
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: I actually walked outside my hotel room I was staying
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: on the fourteenth floor. I walked to the very edge
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: of the terrace and I was why did you do it?
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I was convinced that my life was basically over here.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I am again, I'll be back in trouble, back in
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: web lost this amazing opportunity.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: More importantly, disappointed my wife. My son wasn't born yet,
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: beautiful Gabill, but Ava was. And I went in my
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: pocket to take out but I thought was the end
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: of my drugs.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: But I had two things in my pocket. One was
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the drugs, the other was a key chain to my
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: house in Tenafly, New Jersey. And on the keychain. On
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: the keychain was a picture of my daughter Avil. What
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: the time was about eighteen months old. And when I
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: reached for the drugs in my pocket, instead I took
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: out the keychain. I looked at the picture and I
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: could have sworn Bill.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: She said to me that he don't do it. So
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: I put the keychain back in my pocket. The cold
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: daniellis that I'm coming home. I believe Bill's about to
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: tell us the whole podcast will drop today. That was
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: just a piece of it, and it was pretty intense,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: but it was fun too, which is what Bill is
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: on this show every Thursday. That's why he's the best. Ever.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: He was the best. He still is the best. He'll
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: always be the best, whether it is Thursdays with Me
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: or Mondays with Kats and Cosby. His amazing sight, Bill
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: O'Reilly dot com, great interviews, great stories. It's just great television.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: His books are amazing, the Killing series, the book on
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: the Presidents Confronting Evil. He's got another book coming out
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: him and my new buddy, Josh Hammer, coming out in September.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Always around Danielle's birthday. Does a great job on News
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Nation every week with Chris Cuomo and Stephen A. Smith,
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: and now has this amazing podcast. And I got to
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: tell you Bill, it was an honor. You know how
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: I feel about you. I think you're the greatest ever.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: It's it's surreal for me that you'd even invite me
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: to do it. But it was a great experience Tuesday night.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: So thank you so much.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Well, you were an extraordinary interview e because you told
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: the truth and most people don't do that. They kind
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: of shadow it and spin it. But you don't talk
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: about living off the wall, you know, yeah, yeah, Sid Rosenberg,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: but you overcame it, and that's the true mark of
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: a courageous person. So I think people when they when
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: they listen today, I drops at noon for concierration and
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: premium members on bill O'Reilly dot com, which we hope
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: you check that program out. And then I think it's
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: four o'clock or six o'clock for everybody, and you go
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: to bill O'Reilly dot com and get a little button boom,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: and then YouTube comes up and there it is. But
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: it's almost an hour and it takes the audience through
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Rosenberg's highs and lows. But is he that we do
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: have fun and we make fun of people and usual
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: immature stuff for you, So I thought it was an
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: extraordinary analogies at Worth much an extraordinary interview that even
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: people who don't know you, they're gonna well, this is
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: some story.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: Oh thank you. And you know you sat down with
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: me and you're the best at this, okay. And you
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: actually said, and I think it was yeah, the tape
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: was rolling, he said, you know, I'm going to destroy
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: you today. But he said it with this loving grin,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: like you know, this is not going to be just
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: about you voting for Hillary and now you love Trump,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: or the fact that you hate mom Donnie. Now you're
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: a Yankee man. We cover all that. It's all in there,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: but you actually said I'm going to destroy each through
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: and you said it lovingly, as if we're going to
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: go over a lot of this stuff. Because I'll tell
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: you the truth, Bill, I don't talk about all that
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: stuff a lot. I'm happy to be passed that stuff.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: So is my wife listening right now, and my children.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: But I always tell people that when the book is
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: written now, that's going to be a part of it.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: And I felt like, if anybody, and this is a
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: real testament to you, if anybody would bring that stuff
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: up and make that a part of this one hour's story,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: nobody better than Bill o'readdy.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate that, and I did it for two reasons.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Number one, because it gives hope to people who were
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: in the same circumstance that you are or were. Just
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: keep it in the past, and there are a lot
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: of people struggling and they give up, and they shouldn't
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: give up because they can't overcome it. So that's number one,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: And that was an important message that we have we're
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: able to get. And the second reason is that I'm
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: a guy that admires certain things about other people, and
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: the courage aspect, because you don't see that a lot.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: You know. I know that you're a Trump guy, and
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: we get into that and all that. But Trump's a
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: courageous guy. I'm sorry you hate him. You can do
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: whatever you want or say whatever you want about Trump.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: He's a courageous guy. Whereas Biden was not and Jimmy
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Carter was not. Even Bush the younger waivered. Trump has
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: got that kind of Teddy Roosevelt ask look, I may
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: not be right, but I'm not going down wimbering. So
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: we got into a lot of different things. It's a
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: quick hour. When people finished listening to it, I want
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: them to get in touch with you or me and
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: just let us know what they think.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: I'd love that and you can watch it too. The
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: video came out great. It's a beautiful looking podcast. Your
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: video team does a terrific job. They really do. So
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: I'm excited to watch out later on today. But you
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: know you called in Monday. He did me a favor.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: This is O'Reilly's second visit this week because you and
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: your beautiful son Spencer. You guys were in the room
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: last Saturday night when they tried to kill him again
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: for the third time, and you gave me some specifics
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: on Monday. But a lot of folks know that you're
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: here today Thursday, So let's go over what you saw
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: and what you heard in DC last Saturday night.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Hi. So I was at the end of the ballroom,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: just kind of milling around and taking it all in,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: seeing who was there and how they were interacting. That's
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: where I was. There were only two or three ways
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: to get down into the ballroom from the first flaw
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: of the hotel. I was at the bottom of an
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: escalator that you can take down, and all of a
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: sudden I heard the shots. Now I heard four shots. Subsequently,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I believe five were fired and then they were allowed.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: But I've heard gun fire before, I mean, I know
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: what it sounds like. And then it couldn't have been
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: more than thirty second later the troops can be hauling
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: into the ballroom, the Secret Service and everybody hits the ground,
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: including my son who's under the table. And I kind
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: of leaned over and go, how is it down there?
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Because I can't go under the table. He come on,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: I had to see what's going on. And later on
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Spencer suon to me. He didn't tell me he was
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: taking me to basic training. I said, no, good, but
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: you with his history in a negative way, of course,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: but it is something you'll never forget. So anyway, the
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Secret Service just sprinted down to the dais and Trump
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: was sitting there with Malonniey was kind of dazed, but
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Trump was looking around. He did not want this thing interrupted,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: but obviously they had to get him out of there.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: What people don't understand is there was no way that
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: this loo and could have gotten into the ballroom. There's
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: no way he could have done that. So he knew
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: because the guy cased the place, that he was sacrificing
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: his own life because he'll never get out of prison
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: for what for what for scaring some people that they
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: go into the table. So there when I hear people
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: will criticize Secret Service and do all this kind of stuff. Yeah,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: there are five thousand people in that building, two thousand
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: in the ballroom, three thousand guests, and he was one
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: of the guests, and he came down a stairway, you know,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: one of the stairways that you can go through, and
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: nobody interdicted him. But once he got out into the
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: hotel lobby that it was just seconds before they were.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: On him, bottom line, two seconds and they got the
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: job done. And I've been saying all week that you
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: can take certain things. Service did the task, But for me,
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: it's more about the venue. The scariest part for me
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: is that they've tried three times and they're gonna keep trying.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: You know, they haven't really had a great plan yet.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: The best plan was Butler because this kid was on
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: a roof not far away and you know missed them
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: by you know, just a pubic air. Basically the last
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: two plans a golf course, you know, pretty decent plan.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: If Trump makes his way to that specific goalpole and
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: that guy isn't found right before that by Secret Service.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: This one of the three was the least likely to
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: do any real damage. You could have killed somebody else, obviously,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: But the point of here, Bill is that they continue
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: to try to do this, and I don't see any
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: reason why they're gonna stop. It took kak keeen Jeffries
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: one day to go from hey, let's lower the political
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: rhetoric temperature one day to get back to the word warfare.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: So how is this gonna stop?
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Not only it's going to stop, but it's gonna be
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: very difficult for anybody to approach the president and he'll
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: get his ballroom now, and he should. I mean, this
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: is all private money, So why are you stopping it?
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: You know, the Heritage Foundation, not the heritage, it's the
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: legacy foundation of people who look at the buildings and
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: they don't want that change, so they're holding it up.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Why that would seat seventeen hundred. You don't need a
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: bigger room than that for anything. So that should go
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: through now, just for the safety sake of other presidents.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: And then when he goes out, the golf thing is
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: where he's most vulnerable. But they've knocked out a one
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: a in Florida past mar Lago. They shut that down.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: You can't even go on that street now. Ever, so
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: they seem to understand the intensity of this. But besides
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: the actual story, which was in a major story, obviously,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: the reaction to this story is the same the Kimble
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: stuff and the sixty minute stuff and all of this,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: you know, And I bring it to my viewers and listeners,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: and I go, look, if something did happen to President Trump,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: do you think Jimmy Kimmel's going to be disappointed?
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: No?
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: No, oh, that's definition of hatred. And then I take
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: it a step further. I go, why are the Disney
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Company funding hatred? Why are they doing that? That's what
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Kimball does every day. He tries to demean and deride
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: the President of the United States, the office of First Lady,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: or even Barren right.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: And so when you say why do they allow that?
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: You know, I keep going back to the same thing.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: If you're a ratings monster, like, it's going to be
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: very hot, rabyc to have a fire me. Okay, I
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: have to do something really bad because I get the ratings.
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: And when you get ratings, as you know better than anybody,
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Bill the best ever. Usually ratings translates to revenue. So
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: if you said to me, look, ABC puts up with
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: it because Jimmy Kimmel gets great ratings. Nobody watches that show.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: His ratings aren't bad, they're dismal. Now I have no
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: idea what his advertisers look like, but he gets dismal ratings.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: So that takes the question again, why is ABC loyal
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: to this guy? The only theory I have is is
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: because they enjoy it. Really is a.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Little more complicated than that. Number One, his anti Trump stuff,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Kimmels goes out on social media. Okay, so it goes there.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Number Two, Disney has taken it right between the eyes
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: on a stock price, on its ability to sell its
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: products at Dopey Lives. No White Thing was one of
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: the biggest bombs and movie history. But they've been threatened
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Disney by the Hollywood establishment. The talent agency is saying,
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: if you do anything to jim then you're not going
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: to get our actors, or our producers or our writers.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: We're not going to do business with you, and so
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: you'll be on an island with the talent. That's the
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: cloak that protects Jimmy Kimmel, You're right.
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: That's it, And you brought up an excellent point which
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: one brings up, and that is the amount of traffic
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: they get from his social media, which no one ever
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: takes into account, but it is certainly a big deal.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: And look, let's be honest, Bill, you know that now
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: because Bill o'readley dot com puts on this great show
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: every night, the No Spin News. But when you look
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: even at your stuff, you know that goes out on
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: social media and your popularity on YouTube you went from
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: zero to two million in about fifteen minutes. You know
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: how important that stuff is.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: And it's a it's a huge anue driver for us.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: And then why you see people on social media saying
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: the craziest stuff you could say, because then people go
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: in to watch what they're doing and they can sell
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: ads advertising off that. That's the game, that's the industry,
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: what they do. So there's a delineation of people like
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: me who use my platform to gather and disseminate and
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: analyze the news. I mean, I was on Pious Monam
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: for Pis Morgan right, yes sure, okay from London yesterday,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: So I go on him and they're obsessed with Tucker
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Carlson over there for some reason.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: They like them, they like them or don't like them.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: I think it's divided, but he's always a topic of
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: conversation in the one the media.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: Well you told me, and if you told them they
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: like them in London, I would say, of course they do.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: They killed two more Jews in London yesterday. Of course.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, you get a strapolo anywhere you want, Okay.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: But they wanted me to say horrible things about Tucker calls,
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: so that that's what the bait was. Yeah, and I'm
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: going to take the bait.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: I would have gone to do that. They should have.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: They should have called me.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: You know, if Tucker Carlson wants to debate me anywhere anytime,
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: I'm ready to go.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: Please'll kill them, kill them.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: And I'm not going to backstab these people number one,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: because I know what the what the end is, so
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: they can throw the clip out on social media. I
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: don't want to be a part of that. Right, you
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: want to come up against me, it's easy to do.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: You get in touch with our producers to say, look,
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: I want to talk to O'Reilly that a and if
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: you have any credibility at all, you can come on
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: and talk to me about it. But I'm not going
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: to knife you in the back. I mean, but that's
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: the whole game that social media plays.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Yep, oh that gets the hits.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: See when you said Piers Morgan called you from London,
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: I never would have come up with Tuker callson. I
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: would have thought he called you because you're in New Yorker.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: You're in New York and the king was here. They
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: wanted O'Reilly's opinion.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Well, he asked me about the king too, you know,
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: and I like King Charles, even though I'm an Irish Catholic,
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: and you know, there's a lot of history there, but
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: I like him. I think that he's got a much
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: better world view than all of these pinheads in Parliament.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: They don't know what they're doing. They had no blanket
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: idea what they're doing over there. Okay, oh we have
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: uh yeah, we have eighteen rafts in our navy. Oh
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: good good, that's nice. Okay, they'd have knowing. So he
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: did ask me about that, But he wanted a headline
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: at a Tucker Callson and are they gonna give him one?
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: And I tell him, my son, and look, I've known
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: calls him for years and I was on his ex
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: show or whatever. If he wants to come and talk
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: about all of this, I'll be happy talking to him
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: about it, man and man, I.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Think that's the best way to do it. And of course, uh,
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: he went on the same time slot as you did
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: eight o'clock on Fire and he was great. I loved him.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: I've never missed his monologue. He was great. Something terrible
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: has happened to him the last couple of years. I
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: don't know if it's money, I don't know what it is.
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: I'm not forget it. All I know is that guy
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: that I watched religiously that I would even say maybe
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: right behind you in terms of an interesting watch on
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Fox News. That guy's gone. That guy is gone. So
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: what happened I don't know. But nevertheless I know you
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: and you're not going to do something like that because
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: it happened to you. I mean, you're the guy that
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: was getting stabbed in the face in the back every
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: day every day.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: I have a letter that I'm going to write on Sunday,
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: put it in my column, my Sunday column on Bill
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: O'Reilly dot com. From Gavin Newsom when he was mayor
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: of San Francisco demanding i'd be taking off the air.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: So now we have George Clooney and Kareem you know, hackem.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. A lot of dreams here. I don't know.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: But the speak the minority in the house hacking. Oh no,
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: you can't take Jim off. Oh no, no, no, no,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: don't do that, says come on, he says, I got
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: a letter. It says not only should you take O'Reilly
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: off the air, but we want them execute it. Yes,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: And I'm running the letter. I'm running. This is unbelievable.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Run it. I got a bunch of those two. I
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: got Care especially is up cosumatitis asked to fire me
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: about eighteen. I know you got the same letters from
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: Care too. But now, these people they never practice what
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: they preach. That's the issue. Be one thing. If they
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: felt some way, even if it's horrible, which most of
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: it is, and they actually stayed there, they don't practice
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: what they preach. And look, you know me, Bill, nobody
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: at one point you even said kind of dopey some
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: of the things you say on the air. Nobody pushes
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: the envelope further than I do. Nobody appreciates the First
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: Amendment more than I do. I almost never advocate for
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: anybody's termination. But this guy, he went over the line.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: I'm saying it. He went over the line. How about that.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: You're talking about Jimmy. It's more than that, though. I
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: when he did the Maga Charlie Kirk stuff, I stick
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: up for him. For Kimmel, I said, I want you
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: to know, everybody makes mistakes. The guy's doing commentary and
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: probably didn't mean it were and I was wrong. I
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: was wrong to stick up for him because all he
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: traffics in is hatred. That's all he's got. He didn't
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: have anything else. You're not going to get a popsicle
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: from this guy, Okay. The only on the menu is
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: we hate Trump.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: That's what we want to see. Bad things happen to Trump.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And if you're a major corporation like Walt Disney
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: and you're paying for that, so you just so imagine
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: if that happened under Barack Obama. Do you think Disney
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: would have kept somebody on the air who every night
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: was hating on Barack Obama? No chance, No chands would
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: have lasted thirty seconds. They would have given him the
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: mouse suit and booted him right out into the Hollywood
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: bullvar one.
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: Hundred be on the street, you know. But going back
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: to Trump for a second. This Iran thing, which you've
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: been great with too. If you watch billow'roilly dot com,
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: you're all over it. Somebody except me something last week
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: I shed it with you and they said, Sid, I
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: love the president, but don't listen to him. He said,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: they're not winning, not doing great. They're stuck. They're stuck
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: right now. And you came back. He said, no, not really, listen.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: We can take the straight whenever we want. And you know,
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: but this guy mentioned six or seven things that have
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: changed since the start of the Iran war that don't
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: necessarily favor the United States, And he said, Sid, no
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: matter what anybody tells you, the reason why we've got
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: these constant extensions is not because Trump is trying to
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: find the right guys of leadership now because he's a
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: nice guy. We are stuck. Where are we, bill O'Reilly
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: in this conflict?
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: I think that we're not stuck without a plan, so
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: we can use our military power to do pretty much
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: anything we want. But he doesn't want to kill a
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: massive amount of Persian civilians. That's the problem. Now, what
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: the US government's trying to do is starve them out,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: and we control the straights of for move is not Iran.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: We're the one. Our navy is the one telling the
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: tankers who can come and who can go. And Trump
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: is hoping that the economic situation over there, it's so bad.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Inflation in Iran is at fifty percent. So what costs
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: an apple six weeks ago has doubled in price, and
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: the Persians have no way to make the money up,
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: so they can't get the apple. So that's the trend
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: over there. But here in the United States, we're also
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: getting hammered at the gas pump. And if it continues
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: to go on much longer, that'll be the end of
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: the Republicans in the midds Perfect.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Gu's exactly no, that's exactly where I want to end this,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: this great conversation which nobody wants to end. Trust me,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I'm getting a million messages how great this is.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: You said, if this continues much longer, I ask all
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: my guess this what is much longer? One guest said
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: to me, I'll tell you what said. He can figure
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: this thing out in September. As long as he wins,
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: I know it wins means, but as long as he wins,
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: he'll be okay in November. I don't believe that's true.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: So when you say to me, you know when it's over,
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: how long can we do this? A month? Two months?
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: Don't tell me we can get into the summer and
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: this is still going on. We're going to lose in November.
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: We meaning me. So what is the time in your estimation?
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: This needs to get done.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: Nobody knows. We don't get the intel in the morning
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: that the president gets every morning at nine o'clock.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: But you know how Americans feel, you're the best ever
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: at this.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Right now, Harris Harvard Pole has the vote in November
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: at fifty to fifty.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: Fifty fifty right now?
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, So these other Poles like Emerson and Quinnipiac, that's
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: all bull okay, But this Harvard Harris Pole is very
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: well done. So Americans are divided now, and they're hoping
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: those who are not Trump haters that this thing turns
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: around fast, because when it does, gas prices will come
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: down very very quickly and things will get back to
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: semi normal. I believe. Okay, now, The problem with that
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: analysis is that the Mullas don't care about their own people.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: They don't care if they die in the sand, and
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: they don't have anything to eat, so you can hold out.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Hitler held out a year longer then he should have
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: in World War Two because the German people were so fanatical,
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: and he has such a tight reign over everybody. He's
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: gunning them down, just like them allows a gun on
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: their own people down, so they can extend that the
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: Iranian scent. But Trump believes he's going to win. I
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: said in the beginning, this is the biggest gamble he
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: has ever taken in any way in his whole life,
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: because it's so hard to control things in the Middle East,
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: so hard to get It's not like dealing with Venezewell
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: one of these countries. Okay, it's a whole theocracy thing here.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: And so right now, I would say, within two weeks,
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: something dramatic is going to have to happen. So if
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: I'm commander in chief, I'm going you know, we're almost
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: at the point where I'm going to lose a massive
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: amount of support because people they don't have the money,
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: and they're going to remember it. So I've got to
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: do something, but I'm just guessing there.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: I think two weeks is about right. I will tell
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: you this. You called me courageous from my podcast appearance
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: with you, and then you made that great transition into
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: Trump and you call this a huge gamble. This was courageous, unless,
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: of course, you're one of these people that believes he
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: did it for BBI in Israel, which of course is
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: somewhere between antisemitic and stupid. It was a gamble. It
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: is courageous. But in the end, it's going to help
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: save the world. And I just hope it gets done
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: sooner than later, because I do believe that if this
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: goes on another month or two, that it will affect
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: us come November. So for the folks who want to
• 27:54
