Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: So welfare check from everybody. You slept on it. Let's
- 0:02Speaker 1: all stipulate the Trump truth. Social post not his best moment.
- 0:07Speaker 1: I cried out for context. Did you hear my cry
- 0:09Speaker 1: for context? How did it strike you? And how are
- 0:11Speaker 1: you doing well?
- 0:12Speaker 2: I'm fine. I mean, you know, it's unfortunate. It was
- 0:15Speaker 2: something that I'm not going to defend. I don't think anybody.
- 0:18Speaker 1: Nobody has nobody, Okay, I can find somebody alive. It
- 0:22Speaker 1: was awesome. I'm glad he kicked Rob Reiner in the nuts. Sure,
- 0:26Speaker 1: but nobody defended it in the terms of saying it
- 0:30Speaker 1: was really great. But there is something weird about getting
- 0:34Speaker 1: finger wagged and lectured about it from people who said nothing,
- 0:38Speaker 1: as Rob Reiner and millions of others called him hitler
- 0:40Speaker 1: for ten years. So excuse me.
- 0:42Speaker 2: There are two There are two reasons to try to
- 0:44Speaker 2: defend it, and there are people that are trying to
- 0:46Speaker 2: defend it. And the two reasons are number one, we're
- 0:49Speaker 2: tired of the way they've tried to destroy him, and
- 0:53Speaker 2: our inclination is to defend him when they come at him,
- 0:57Speaker 2: because they did try to kill him. They tried to
- 1:00Speaker 2: ruin his life and put it in prison for the
- 1:02Speaker 2: rest of his life. And so there's this instinct we
- 1:05Speaker 2: have to not pile on. And incidentally, I possess that instinct.
- 1:08Speaker 2: I don't want to pile on at all, and I'm
- 1:13Speaker 2: not going to pile on, but I'm not going to
- 1:14Speaker 2: defend it, and nobody can. It's not it's not defensible.
- 1:18Speaker 2: But Number two of the reasons some people are trying
- 1:20Speaker 2: to defend it, contrary to your pretends that they're not,
- 1:24Speaker 2: is that we don't want to. People don't want to
- 1:26Speaker 2: project an image of weakness.
- 1:29Speaker 1: And I get that too, because it's not weakness to
- 1:32Speaker 1: be gracious. No no, no, you're not weakness to zip it
- 1:36Speaker 1: you do go ahead, No no, no, there there are people.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Look you look at the Kurt Schlickter and Greg Gutfeld types.
- 1:42Speaker 1: Kurt is saying that anybody who's not fully embracing Trump
- 1:47Speaker 1: on this is a sissy, is a whimp, is a
- 1:50Speaker 1: weasel and and and Kurt doesn't want to project an
- 1:54Speaker 1: image of weakness to our political opponents. And I kind
- 1:57Speaker 1: of get that too, because you can't show weakness in
- 2:01Speaker 1: this political war we're in. They smell that.
- 2:04Speaker 2: They they hone in on that weakness and they'll try
- 2:08Speaker 2: to they'll try to destroy our side. So I get
- 2:11Speaker 2: that too, I really do.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Having mentioned Kurt, I now know a little of what
- 2:14Speaker 1: you're talking about. It's not so much that, uh, that
- 2:18Speaker 1: it would have been weak for Trump to not savage
- 2:21Speaker 1: Rob Reiner, but that people are coming after Kurt Schlickter,
- 2:25Speaker 1: coming after me, coming after you, coming after me. They
- 2:27Speaker 1: like require us to just kick Trump right in the
- 2:32Speaker 1: nads for this and do it incessantly for a full day.
- 2:35Speaker 1: The way this weasel Eric Erickson is the way a
- 2:38Speaker 1: bunch of other Republican weasels are the left is predictably
- 2:41Speaker 1: doing it. They're calling on our side to do it.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Is this, this is your guy, this is your guy,
- 2:46Speaker 1: and people are identifying the weakness, and I think it
- 2:50Speaker 1: would be weak for us to buckle under that pressure.
- 2:54Speaker 1: I didn't even break a sweat doing it. I know
- 2:56Speaker 1: you can do it too. It is absolutely possible to
- 2:58Speaker 1: say about that Trump truth. So post sir, not your
- 3:01Speaker 1: best moment. Let's not be that way, while at the
- 3:03Speaker 1: same time crying out of the ridiculousness of the people
- 3:07Speaker 1: who are telling us that we should savage him for
- 3:09Speaker 1: it when we have stronger borders a safer nation, sanity
- 3:12Speaker 1: busting out all around. That's what I care about it.
- 3:14Speaker 2: I like what Scott Jennings said about it. And Scott,
- 3:17Speaker 2: of course and I are going to co host a
- 3:19Speaker 2: big cruise next November, and we've already kind of given
- 3:22Speaker 2: everybody an early sneak peek, early access to getting the
- 3:26Speaker 2: itinerary if you love Scott's work over on CNN. And
- 3:29Speaker 2: of course he's joined us at the Salem Radio Network.
- 3:32Speaker 2: He's our new colleague and there's going to be a
- 3:34Speaker 2: big announcement. They have re upped with him, and there's
- 3:38Speaker 2: going to be a big announcement about the first of
- 3:39Speaker 2: the year and Scott taking over one of the network
- 3:42Speaker 2: slots here at Salem. And incidentally, speaking of Scott, he's
- 3:47Speaker 2: got a new book out and I thought it would
- 3:49Speaker 2: be kind of neat. This book is called a Revolution
- 3:52Speaker 2: of Common Sense, How Donald Trump stormed Washington and fought
- 3:55Speaker 2: for Western civilization, which is perfect. The timing of this
- 3:59Speaker 2: is perfect because Western civilization is literally under attack right now,
- 4:03Speaker 2: and we got going to I want to get to
- 4:05Speaker 2: that with you in just a moment, God, because I
- 4:06Speaker 2: want to talk about Australia. I want to talk about
- 4:08Speaker 2: Brown University and what they're not telling us about Brown.
- 4:12Speaker 2: I want to get to all of that. But in
- 4:13Speaker 2: any event, I thought would be kind of cool in
- 4:15Speaker 2: the final days of our big Angel Tree Christmas campaign
- 4:18Speaker 2: if I got some signed copies of Scott's book so
- 4:22Speaker 2: that somebody could give to somebody on their gift list
- 4:24Speaker 2: for Christmas.
- 4:25Speaker 1: I've got fun to somebody. What does somebody have to
- 4:27Speaker 1: shell out to get such a book?
- 4:29Speaker 2: How? What do you think help me get a number tration?
- 4:31Speaker 2: I want to know about it.
- 4:32Speaker 1: You sponsor, you sponsor one sponsor one dollar, thirty bucks?
- 4:36Speaker 2: Right, yeah, three hundred bucks. How about three hundred bucks
- 4:40Speaker 2: for a signed book form?
- 4:42Speaker 1: Not everybody has three hundred dollars, but that that's a
- 4:44Speaker 1: wonderful well. First of all, the great thing to do
- 4:46Speaker 1: speaks to the Christmas season. And as you so eloquently
- 4:49Speaker 1: said yesterday, with all these horrible stories breaking out, positivity
- 4:53Speaker 1: coming from us, an act that is so godly and
- 4:56Speaker 1: so kind coming from us has a healing power.
- 4:58Speaker 2: So sure, so we'll give the Mark Davis audience the
- 5:03Speaker 2: early access if anyone's interested in a signed book for
- 5:07Speaker 2: three hundred dollars and and and Scott signed it Merry
- 5:10Speaker 2: Christmas twenty twenty five and will affect and we will
- 5:13Speaker 2: fed exit to you so you have it by Christmas.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Dumb questions Huh, I got a dumb question. Yeah, you
- 5:20Speaker 1: know this audience right? Yeah, how many books you can five?
- 5:24Speaker 1: You might have seven by the time you and I finished.
- 5:26Speaker 1: Well this sentence, let's let's find out what do you
- 5:29Speaker 1: do with? What do you do with those people?
- 5:30Speaker 2: Well, they're out of luck. You have first Mark Davis.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Audience wins.
- 5:35Speaker 1: The lesson is you better be quick if you're that
- 5:37Speaker 1: sixth person. If you're ready, we got five like we
- 5:40Speaker 1: got five books. If you're interested, call right now. And
- 5:43Speaker 1: in fact, operators are standing by eight hundred and six
- 5:46Speaker 1: five five MIC. You can call very very good eight
- 5:49Speaker 1: you'll pick up and confirm.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Eight hundred eight hundreds. Well, no, we'll handle it right
- 5:54Speaker 2: when you call eight hundred six five five six four
- 5:57Speaker 2: five three. If you're interested, you got to call right now.
- 6:00Speaker 2: If not, we'll started at ten oh five. But here's
- 6:02Speaker 2: what and Scott is tremendous. He goes every night with
- 6:04Speaker 2: Abby Phillips and he's the Christian in the lions Den.
- 6:08Speaker 2: Here's what he's here's what he said quote, I'm not
- 6:11Speaker 2: surprised Donald Trump didn't have anything nice to say about
- 6:13Speaker 2: mister Reiner. Reiner was one of his most vocal critics,
- 6:16Speaker 2: called him a fascist for a decade. But the correct
- 6:19Speaker 2: answer here is just put it in your pocket. Someone
- 6:22Speaker 2: was tragically murdered. We just rolled out of the murder
- 6:25Speaker 2: of Charlie Kirk. Scott said, I have been critical of
- 6:28Speaker 2: everybody who celebrated that murder, the thousands of liberals who
- 6:31Speaker 2: celebrated that they shouldn't have done that either. In this case,
- 6:35Speaker 2: put it in your pocket would have been the right thing.
- 6:37Speaker 1: That's answer. And then another is a superb answer. There's
- 6:40Speaker 1: a myth of equivalency problem here, just a smidge. And
- 6:43Speaker 1: then one of the things that I just forget, but
- 6:44Speaker 1: the myth of equivalence, he is that that that Trump
- 6:47Speaker 1: being indelicate and unhelpful and harsh and and just weird
- 6:53Speaker 1: on that because is somehow is somehow the same as
- 6:57Speaker 1: the savage I'm glad he's dead vibe that we got
- 7:01Speaker 1: across the leftist landscape. As they say in Sesame Street,
- 7:05Speaker 1: one of these things is not like the other. And
- 7:07Speaker 1: I just remember the other thing people have found. I
- 7:09Speaker 1: have found and I played yesterday the wonderful moment from
- 7:12Speaker 1: Rob Reiner as he was indeed gracious about Charlie Kirk, saying, man,
- 7:16Speaker 1: that was terrible. That shouldn't happen anybody. And Eric's forgiveness
- 7:19Speaker 1: is exactly the way to be. That's that's the decent
- 7:22Speaker 1: good Rob Reiner, dude, that is most of his life.
- 7:25Speaker 1: The leftist politics, though, got a hold of him and
- 7:28Speaker 1: then turned Rob Reiner into one of the biggest a
- 7:31Speaker 1: holes in America. And he did it every day, all day,
- 7:34Speaker 1: and he did it for a flip in decade. So
- 7:36Speaker 1: one nice moment about Charlie Kirk does not obviate or
- 7:39Speaker 1: outweigh the decade of savagery that he did. So so
- 7:45Speaker 1: you're really exercised about all this, aren't you. Yeah, I mean,
- 7:48Speaker 1: and it's kind of funny. It's not even about Trump,
- 7:50Speaker 1: it's not about Rob Ryner. It's about this culture of
- 7:52Speaker 1: weirdness where people are like, oh, you better, you'd better
- 7:57Speaker 1: condemn him for this a hard pass. It's the post
- 8:01Speaker 1: is bad. Kids, don't be that way, but please you
- 8:05Speaker 1: And I've spend way more time on this than I
- 8:06Speaker 1: wanted to, So I'm done for full shows live and
- 8:10Speaker 1: on demand.
- 8:11Speaker 2: It's news channel,
