Get ready for an outstanding entertainment program.
The Jimmy Dore Show!
Beep.
This is Jimmy.
Jimbo, stop whatever homosexual acts you're committing there and come talk with me.
Wow.
Is this Governor Barber?
I'm Haley Barber.
Hey, I know it's you.
How are you, Governor?
Jimbo, can I ask you a serious question here?
Go ahead.
Jimbo, what the fuck?
I don't know what you're referring to.
What in the name of Bay Arthur's ghost has happened to my beloved grand old party?
I got to be honest, Governor.
It seems like pretty much the same party as it's always been.
Oh, come on, Jimmy.
We got this New York yacht captain shooting his mouth off all over God's green earth, and it's winning.
That spray tan fancy boy is winning, and I just don't get it.
Well, Governor, I sort of think you guys did this to yourselves.
Well, that's interesting there.
You tell me more about that little theory of yours, and don't hold back just because I'm your better.
It just seems to me that Republicans have demonized nuance and intellect and the whole governing process just to win elections.
Well, sure we do.
I mean, you don't think you can get a George W. Bush elected by telling people the smart guys should win, do you?
Well, isn't that the problem, though?
You're more interested in winning than qualified governance.
I'm Haley Barber.
I know who you are.
Well, of course, we want to win.
The whole point of a campaign is to win an election.
But you win an election so you can govern.
No, you win an election so you can win the next election.
And then what?
Then everybody has to like you, and your dad will finally get off your back.
And Frankie Dupree, who wants to call you fat, has to shut the fuck up.
Look, Governor, your party has demonized government so much, fomented the fears and frustrations of your constituency to the point that the popularity of someone like Donald Trump was inevitable.
Well, you know what, Jimmy?
That dog won't fuck.
What?
I'm Haley Barber.
I know.
I thought the expression was that dog won't hunt.
Nah, now we just clean it up for church.
But the real expression is that dog won't fuck.
What does that mean?
Well, sometimes you really want a dog to fuck and it just won't.
You're like, dang it, that dog won't fat.
What does that mean?
No, dog fucking.
I mean, no, I mean, what's the metaphor?
What's the deeper meaning of the expression?
Ain't no deeper meaning.
It's just an observation of non-fucking dogs.
Well, I have a question for you, Governor.
I'll take Potpourri for eight, Jimmy.
Is this all because Donald Trump was mean to you?
Did you see that?
I did.
He called me old and irrelevant.
He did.
And he said I'm always coming into his office asking for money.
Yeah, that's called fundraising.
You trust a firing douche?
When this guy needs a loan for one of his monuments to bad taste, what does he do?
Does he go into the bank and say, hey, I'm a winner and you're a loser.
Now give me some money so I can build some penis building.
And I'm telling you, this is exactly why he's winning.
And Jim, I'm not old.
Hell, I'm younger than he is for crying out loud.
And at least I'm aging appropriately.
You don't see me with some Serbo-Croatian child prostitute on my arm like the worst ads of fang or ever.
I hear you, Governor.
Jimmy, my party is on the verge of nominating a high school bully with a new Camaro.
Well, then, Governor.
I'm Haley Barber.
I know.
Listen, why don't you just become a Democrat?
Hmm.
Now let me think about that a sec.
You guys still have a no-bigoted misogynist policy?
I think we kind of do.
Yeah, well, then that dog won't fuck.
Is it because I'm old and irrelevant?
You can tell me, Jimbo.
Okay, I'm going to let you go, Governor.
You got to take a poop?
No, I just, I have some things I have to do.
Because talking on the phone always makes me need to poop.
That's why I make all my calls directly from the can.
All right, Governor.
Bye-bye.
I'm Haley Barber.
It's the Jimmy Dore show.
The show for...
Up-minded, lowly-livered lefties.
The kind of people that are...
It's the show that makes Anderson Cooper say.
It's hard to talk to T-Wee.
And now, here's a guy who sounds a lot like me.
It's Jimmy Dore.
Hey, everybody, welcome to this week's show.
I'm joined in the studio from the Miserable Liberal blog.
It's Steph Semarano.
Hey, Steph, how are you?
Hola, Jimmy.
I'm doing great.
So that's it.
That's the only person I'm joined by.
Let's get to the jokes before we get to the jokes, shall we?
Yes.
Hey, you know, it's great.
Even though I've never seen The Walking Dead, never saw it, I have seen Trump rally, so I'm totally caught up on the storyline.
I hate to admit it, but Trump is convincing me what America needs to solve our problems is vague generalizations.
I don't know if you heard Trump is saying that he's saying, quote, I will do well with Hispanics.
Wait a minute.
No, he's saying, quote, I will do really well with Hispanics.
So why is anybody still doubting him?
You know, it's a risky strategy, but using facts about Trump against Trump is something that might be well worth going.
Hey, did you see George Herbert Herbert Walker Bush was at the Houston debate?
And even though he looks like he's about to keel over, he's more of a dynamic presence at this GOP debate than Jeb ever was.
Hey, you know, GOP senators, Steph, you know that they're patriotic.
They're so patriotic that they're defying the Constitution and won't nominate a Supreme Court justice until a fascist becomes president.
That's patriotism.
Hey, I don't know, but when an MSNBC reporter or commentator or show host interviews Donald Trump, it's always inspiring to watch them speak small talk to power, isn't it?
Yes.
Hey, did you hear Ted Cruz fired an aide for lying?
Ted Cruz fired an aide for lying.
I guess he's going to soon fire another aide for being born in Canada and another one for being a smarmy a-hole.
Hey, what's coming up on today's show?
We're going to have, we're going to talk about the GOP debate.
And finally, Rubio and Ted Cruz take the gloves off and launch some missiles at a target-rich environment that is Donald Trump and they take him down.
We're going to go over the highlights of it on today's show.
Plus, I was in Las Vegas covering the Nevada caucuses and the story that I logged, the video we logged that got picked up by the Rolling Stone because it was such chaos at the caucuses.
We're going to talk all about that and what I saw there, what I saw at a Ted Cruz event and at the Republican caucus in Nevada.
Plus, we got phone calls today from Haley Barber.
We got a phone call from, and also Ricky Bobby Perry, plus a lot lot more.
that's today on the Jimmy Dore Show.
you All right, so right away, I want to get to this first clip because it really sets up what happens in the rest of the show in a way.
You know, I was in Nevada, and a lot of people are talking about how the party is trying to control the caucus and how it's favoring Hillary Clinton.
And I was watching the somebody sent this to me in an email.
So Chris Matthews was talking about the Nevada caucus, and he can't understand why the Republican Party isn't really trying to stand up to Donald Trump as their nominee.
And why isn't the chairman of the party, Reince Priebus, doing something?
And why aren't they?
Well, let's, here it is.
I'm going to play it for you.
What we're seeing here, I think, is what we're probably seeing across the country that the lack of reality or a fervor or of commitment of the Republican establishment to stand up to Trump.
They sit and jittle about it and worry about it and worry.
And here he is winning.
And nobody puts together an organization to stop.
By the way, have you heard from Reince Priebus tonight?
I mean, where is this guy?
He's the party chair and he has no leadership.
Where is the guy?
You know, Harry Reid was out here working every one of the casinos.
He made sure his party won.
Okay, did you hear what Chris Matthews just said?
So during the Democratic-Nevada caucus, they had caucus sites at the casinos.
And Chris Matthews just said Harry Reid was out here on Caucus Day working the casinos, making sure his party won.
What do you mean, his party?
It was the Democratic caucus.
The party was going to win either way, right?
Because the person who's going to win is going to be the Democrat.
What are you talking about?
Making sure his candidate won is what Chris means.
So the party favored a certain candidate, Hillary Clinton, and they're making sure because it's the party who runs the caucuses, right?
They're not votes.
So when you go to vote for the president in the general election, that's run by the government, right?
So that's the state that does that election.
But the caucus isn't really an election.
A caucus is more like a club meeting.
It's the Democrats getting together using whatever rule and the Republicans for a caucus.
And they get together and they get to choose however which way they want.
And so they favored it.
A caucus favors the people who are running the caucus because it's not accurate.
You have people line up on this side of the room.
You have other people line up on that side of the room.
You count them.
Some people leave.
Some people don't.
You try to talk them into switching their votes.
So listen to what Chris Matthews just said.
That is something he's saying.
Why doesn't the Republican?
Well, here, we'll go on.
He has a little bit more to say.
He just said that Harry Reid made sure his party won.
Debbie Washman Schultz has a favorite in this race, but I don't see anybody in the Republican leadership exercising leadership yet, right?
I disagree.
I think they're letting the people vote.
But anyway, that's letting the people vote.
You know, that's leadership.
So Chris, so he turns to a woman on his panel and she says, well, you know, they're letting the people vote.
Meaning, I don't really think it's up for up to the party to pick who should be the nominee.
Isn't this why we have a primary?
Isn't this why we do this?
So the people get to weigh in.
Chris Matthews says to her, huh, let the people vote, huh?
And Rachel Maddow was in like a split screen with him.
She's off at another location with Brian Williams.
And when he said that, her face, like, she's like, what?
And she turns to Brian Williams and she's got this big smile on his face.
Like, did he really just say this?
I'm going to play this again because this is kind of stunning.
Here he is.
Like, he can't help himself but say, why doesn't the party try to rig the vote?
Why don't they go against the will of the people of their own party?
Why doesn't the party leaders go against?
So do you understand why this is everything we've said and have been saying about the inside the beltway, the establishment?
He doesn't even understand what he's saying is he shouldn't be saying out loud.
He's saying it on a television show.
And he's supposed to be on the quote-unquote liberal network.
And he's saying, hey, why don't party leaders throw the primary elections more towards their favor?
Why don't they do that?
What are they going to get together?
I'm going to play it for you.
It's this kind of stuff.
They sit and jittle about it and worry about it and worry.
And here he is winning.
And nobody puts together an organization to stop.
By the way, have you heard from Reince Priebus tonight?
I mean, where is this guy?
He's the party chair and he has no leadership.
Where is the guy?
You know, Harry Reid was out here working every one of the casinos.
He made sure his party went.
And you can bet Debbie Washman shows us a favorite in this race.
But I don't see anybody in the Republican leadership exercising leadership yet, right?
I disagree.
I think they're letting the people vote.
But anyway, that's letting the people vote.
I mean, if you don't let the party leaders control the outcome of a primary, I mean, this could lead to people thinking they actually have a voice in their own government.
And then what happens?
Then people start to think their vote counts.
And then where will we be?
This is what this is what we have to settle for for liberal media.
And you wonder why Bernie Sanders says this country's ready for a revolution.
So we've all heard Donald Trump say this before, right?
He likes to say this.
Mind trade wars, well, we're losing $58 billion a year.
You want to know the truth.
We're losing so much.
We're losing so much with Mexico and China with China.
We're losing $500 billion a year.
We're losing so much money to China.
I mean, that's almost as much money as I make just selling ties made in China.
So we all know he makes his ties in China.
He gets other stuff made in Mexico.
So he's, again, so Marco Rubio finally decides to take a shot at him.
Finally decided, here's Marco Ruby.
Does not let that slide this time.
This is amazing.
Watch this.
And then people say, oh, don't we want to trade?
I don't mind trading, but I don't want to lose $500 billion.
I don't want to lose $58 billion.
Mexico just took Carrier Corporation, maker of air conditioners.
They just took Ford.
They're building a $2.5 billion plant.
They just took Nabisco out of Chicago.
And I always say I'm not having Oreos anymore, which is true, by the way.
But they just took a big plant from Nabisco into Mexico.
They're taking our businesses.
I don't mind.
So now he's been saying that stuff for a long time.
That's called populist rhetoric, right?
So what he gets people, the blue-collar worker who is losing their job to outside, they're not losing it because Mexicans are stealing it from us or doing something to fair.
They're doing it because the people who own the businesses in America want to export the manufacturing to cheap labor, to people even more desperate than the people here in America.
And that's what's, and so when he says this stuff, that resonates with those people, with those insecure workers, because he talks tough and he knows how to make billions of dollars, and he's got buildings everywhere.
And it makes people think that he actually can get stuff done online like these politicians.
He's got so many weaknesses, so many easy chinks in his armor, right?
And we've been saying this for months, for eight months.
Why doesn't somebody say something back to him?
They didn't go, nobody hired a writer to sit there and write stuff about him.
I'm kidding.
All right.
He's got so many vulnerabilities, right?
And I think people were at, for a long time, Ted Cruz was afraid, you know, I don't want to alienate his voters, then I'll get him.
What they did was to, anyway, so Trump has been saying that stuff.
And, you know, he sells his ties.
He makes his ties in China.
Finally, Marco Rubio, here he comes.
Yeah, a couple points.
If he builds the wall, the way he built Trump Towers, he'll be using illegal immigrant labor to do it.
Bam!
Because we all soaked Donald Trump.
I just think of the lawsuits he's been involved with.
Just think of all the lawsuits he's been involved with.
Think of all the stuff he's done.
Anyway, Marco Rubio is about to bring a lot of it up.
He just brought this up about him hiring illegal immigrants.
He's going to bring up the fake school that Trump's done.
They've done it.
Eight months.
Even the reporters haven't brought up the fake school.
Unbelievable, right?
He's being sued for it.
Hey, here we go.
Such a cute soundbite.
No, it's not a soundbite.
It's a fact.
Again, go online and Google it.
Donald Trump Polish workers.
You'll see it.
The second thing about the trade war, I don't understand because your ties and the clothes you make is made in Mexico and in China.
So you're going to be starting a trade war against your own ties and home suits.
All right.
You know what?
Why don't you make even that curve?
Bam!
You're going to be starting a trade war against your own self.
Bam!
That has been sitting there for eight months.
That's been sitting there.
All right, here.
There's more to come.
They devalue their currency.
They make them in America.
Well, you don't know anything about business.
You lost them.
Make them in America.
Let me just tell you.
They devalue their currencies, China, Mexico, everybody, Japan with the cards.
They devalue their currencies to such an extent that our businesses cannot compete with them.
Our workers lose their jobs.
I don't know anything about it because you're allowed to do it.
Well, I don't know anything about bankrupting foreign companies.
He's back to work.
I don't know anything about it.
You know what?
Starting up.
Finally.
How long?
Finally, somebody brings up.
So Marco Rubio is hitting home runs left and right, left and right, hitting home runs.
Well, why don't you make your clothes in Mexico and China?
What are you talking about?
Oh, you're going to use illegal immigrants to build that wall anyway.
He's just like, oh, bam.
What was this last one?
What did he just hit him on?
Bankruptcy.
Oh, bankruptcy.
Hits him on the bankruptcy.
Bam.
Nails him on it.
Nails.
There's more to this clip.
University.
A fake university.
A fake university.
That's called.
There are people who borrow $36,000 to go to Trump University.
And Trump was trying to get Marco.
And they, so every other time at every other debate, when Trump would start to interrupt them, they would shut up and they would just let Trump keep talking.
Well, Marco Rubio decided to not shut up today.
And guess what?
Donald Trump was told to shut up by the moderator and he did.
He's shutting up right there after Wolf Blitzer said, let Marco Senator Rubio finish.
And he did.
And Marco Rubio got to jam him with that fake university.
And Trump just had to take it.
It's unbelievable how much poise Marco Rubio has on this debate.
He didn't have it before.
No, he did not.
I mean, he really has a lot of grit.
Finally.
Finally.
He's been a boy.
He's been a child this whole time.
Here we go.
Suing him now.
$36,000 to go to a university.
By the way, that's a fake school, by the way.
And you know what they got?
They had to check one of us at the law.
They're going to shut out of Donald Trump.
And by the way, $36,000.
I want to move on.
They actually did a very good job.
Did you hear Trump?
So he said, and what did they get for the $36,000 they paid for Trump University?
They got a picture of themselves next to a cardboard cutout of Donald Trump.
And he's, did you hear Donald Trump?
And we've won a lot of those lawsuits.
That's his defense that's running a fake university.
We've winning a lot of those lawsuits.
What have you guys been waiting for?
No kidding.
What have they been waiting for, Steph?
This guy's going to go.
And I say it's too late, but we're going to talk about it.
But you know what's interesting is what they're really doing tonight is they're giving facts.
They're giving facts right now.
Mr. Trump most of the lawsuit.
Senator, I want to break a lawsuit.
I want to bring in my colleague Maria Celeste.
Am I allowed to respond to this?
You've been responding.
No, I haven't.
I really haven't.
He's talking a whole thing.
Here's the guy.
Here's the guy that buys a house for $179,000.
He sells it to a lobbyist who's probably here for $380,000.
And then legislation is passed.
You tell me about this guy.
This is what we're going to have.
Here's the guy that had hired at $200 million.
If he hadn't inherited $200 million, you know where Donald Trump is right now.
Selling watches in Manhattan.
Bam!
You know what this guy would be doing?
If he didn't have a rich father, he'd be selling watches in Manhattan out of his coat.
That's what he said.
And people finally, just like, so just like the last week when Donald Trump said that stuff to Jeb Bush about the Iraq war, to your brother lied and it was, and it screws, you destabilize the Middle East.
You created ISIS, all the stuff that we know to be truisms and they're being said on the GOB debate stage by the front-running candidate for the presidency.
And there is Donald Trump now getting it done back to him.
Now Rubio was saying all those things that we all know about Donald Trump, but no one would say to him for whatever crazy reason, fear, weakness, spinelessness.
And now here's Marco Rubio put up her shut up time and he is coming hard at Donald Trump and Trump is not handling it well.
By the way, you can't see this on the radio, but Donald Trump's part seems to be getting lower on his head.
It seems to be way more of a comb over now than it was before.
Like he literally combs his hair, parts his hair about an inch above his ear, which is not right.
I'm wrong.
I took it so wrong.
We'll work on that.
I took $1 million and I turned it into $10 billion.
I borrowed $1 million.
I'm going to get a tax return so he can say I buy him $1 million.
I turned it into $10 billion, more than $10 billion.
Thank you.
I want to bring in Maria Celeste of Telemundo.
Maria.
Bam.
Mark Rubio.
Nah, just let's see.
He had a comeback for every, and he talked over Trump and he interrupted Trump.
And when Trump interrupted him, he kept going.
Exactly what Trump's been doing to everybody else.
And that's why Trump's been kicking ass.
And that's why Republicans love him because he's been the strongest guy on that stage.
Everyone else looked like an absolute spineless wimp when they're put up against Donald Trump.
They look like amateurs.
They look like children next to Donald Trump.
Even though Donald Trump is a clown, that's how bad these guys were.
He still looked strong.
He did the silver battle.
He was doing that.
Finally, somebody, you punch a bully in the nose, and that's exactly what's happening here.
This is fantastic.
Finally, somebody's saying something to Donald Trump.
It's easy target.
Target-rich candidate.
Okay, let's go to our next.
Let's go to our next video.
Here he tries to go after Ted Cruz.
He asked Ted Cruz for an apology, and Ted Cruz turns it right around on him.
It's perfect.
Let's watch.
Maybe we should get a little bit of an apology from Ted.
What do you think?
Senator.
Let me tell you right now, Donald, I will not apologize for a minute for defending the Constitution.
I will not apologize for defending the Bill of Rights.
And I find it amazing that you.
Bam.
Kind of like, kind of like when Donald Trump said the 9-11 thing on Ted Cruz, Ted Cruz turned around.
I'm not going to apologize for the Constitution.
Bam.
Your answer to Hugh and to the American people is on religious liberty.
You can't have one of these crazy zealots that actually believes in it.
You got to be willing to cut a deal.
And you know, there is a reason why when Harry Reid was asked of all the people on the...
I can make deals.
I get along with everybody.
Ted Cruz is turning it against him.
And it's so easily done all the time.
He's doing it.
He's turning it against him.
Of course, you make deals.
You'll make a deal with Harry Reid to have a bad Supreme Court justice on the Supreme Court.
You'll make a deal with their Democrats because you've supported.
Here it comes.
The stage, who does he want the most?
Who does he like the most?
Harry Reid said Donald Trump.
Why?
Because Donald has supported him in the past and he knows he can cut a deal with him.
You know what, Donald?
I don't want a Supreme Court justice that you cut a deal with Harry Reid to undermine religious liberty because that same justice will also erase the Second Amendment.
When you say crazy, bam.
Because Donald Trump gave money to Harry Reid.
Donald Trump's given money to all these politicians.
He gave money to Hillary Clinton.
He went to her wedding.
She went to his weddings.
He invited her.
So he's got a lot of dirt on his hands.
Ted Cruz is pointing that out.
And it's working perfectly, I think.
Watch how lame Donald Trump tries to come back and falls flat.
Crazy zealot.
Are you talking about you, crazy zealot?
Give me a break.
Senator Rubio.
Bam!
We should get a little bit of...
I'm talking about you can break silence.
Silence in the auditorium.
Silence.
Okay.
So here.
We're going to do what's right.
We have to get rid of the lines around the states so that there's serious, serious competition.
And you're going to see.
Excuse me.
Then you go.
So that's how he says it.
We have to get rid of the lines.
We have to get rid of the lines around the states.
So Marco Rubio kind of catches.
So let's go to more of that.
Here's what you didn't hear in that answer.
And this is important, guys.
This is an important thing.
What is your plan?
I understand the line.
So Marco Rubio is really sticking it to him because we've said this.
Donald Trump has no policies.
He has no positions.
He has no plans.
He has vague generalities.
And all the, I'm going to win and we're going to build the wall and pay.
They'll make them pay for it.
And we're going to win with the deals.
We're going to cut deals.
And we're going to have better deals.
This is his plan.
We're going to cut a fixed trade imbalance.
Better deals.
Tariffs.
So here's him.
Marco Rubio is going to call out Donald Trump for not having a health care plan and for just using that term lines, lines.
Here we go.
Here's what you didn't hear in that answer.
And this is important, guys.
This is an important thing.
What is your plan?
I understand the lines around the state, whatever that means.
This is not a game where you draw maps around.
I don't know what it is.
What is your plan?
What is your plan on health care?
The biggest problem.
The biggest problem.
What is the reality?
Now, the beauty of Marco Rubio is he's not stopping when Donald Trump talks.
So when Donald Trump would make a point at every other debate for the last eight months, everybody would stop.
And Marco Rubio's not doing that.
So he tries to say something.
He just goes, what's your plan?
And you don't know what I mean.
What's your plan?
He comes.
He keeps taking control of the debate away from Donald Trump, which is what Donald Trump has done nonstop for eight months.
Finally, and look how easy a chump like Marco Rubio can push Trump around because Trump's got so many vulnerabilities.
Okay, here we go.
The biggest problem he's got is he doesn't know.
You know, I watched him melt down two weeks ago with Chris Christie.
So now Donald Trump always tries.
He takes the cheap shot, tries to go for the, he goes to the weakest link.
He doesn't go to your strength and attack it.
He goes to your weakness, which that's his weakness.
But watch how Rubio turns it around.
I'll tell you, the biggest problem he's got is he really doesn't know about the lines.
The biggest thing we've got, and the reason we have no competition, is because we have lines around the state.
And you have to go to the bottom of the story.
We already mentioned that.
That's part of his plan.
I know what that is.
But what else is part of your plan?
So your only thing is to get rid of the lines around the states.
What else is part of your health care?
The lines around the states.
That's right.
It was almost done.
No, no.
That does me.
That brings in competition.
When you get rid of the lines, it brings in competition.
So instead of having one insurance company taking care of New York or Texas, you'll have many.
They'll compete, and it'll be a beautiful thing.
So that's the only part of the plan?
Just the lines, the interstate companies.
The nice part about the plan, you have many different plans.
You'll have competition.
You'll have so many different plans.
But now he's repeating himself.
No, I'm not repeating.
No, no, no.
Bam!
He's did it right back out.
He melted down.
Well, now he's repeating himself.
He's got nothing else to go on.
Marco Rubio is coming at him.
Look out.
No, no, no, no.
I don't repeat myself.
I don't repeat myself.
He says, I don't repeat myself twice.
I don't repeat myself.
I don't repeat myself.
But I'll tell you one thing I don't do is I don't repeat myself.
Hey, have I told anybody how much I don't repeat myself?
And I'm certainly not redundant over and over.
So that's how much he's being thrown.
So that's Rubio throwing him.
Hey, I don't repeat myself.
I don't repeat myself.
Talk about a meltdown.
Ruby, and that's how easy Trump melts down because no one stands up to him.
Nobody in the media stands up to him.
When Jorge Ramos stood up to him, he had him thrown out of the room.
A strong man won't come over and throw him out.
He couldn't answer questions.
That's how Donald Trump works.
And Marco Rubio pushing him around the stage like a hockey puck.
You don't repeat yourself.
Here's the guy who repeats himself.
I don't repeat himself every day.
You repeat yourself every day.
Marco Rubio, in The moment, not repeating talking points.
Shoni's got a little something.
I watched him talking about repeating.
I watched him repeat himself five times four weeks ago.
I saw you repeat yourself five times about seconds ago.
I watched him.
He is slapping him left and right.
Don't forget if you miss any part of today's show, you can always get a podcast of the Jimmy Door show for free at iTunes, Stitcher, or at JimmyDoorComedy.com.
We're up against the break.
We'll be right back in one minute.
This is the Jimmy Door show on Pacifica.
Hey, guess what?
I met a guy in Las Vegas who said he's been hitting it big on the slots, right?
At the slots.
I didn't know that.
He said he won several thousand dollars on the slots.
He said he never won before, but things turned around when he started using our Amazon.com link to buy his stuff at Amazon.
Isn't that something?
I'm not saying that you're going to start winning at the slots, but it is good karma and things like this seem to be happening all the time.
So we don't encourage anybody to shop at Amazon.com, but if you're going to shop at Amazon anyway, we say have some of that money you're spending on Amazon.
Go to a good cause, like the progressive show, the Jimmy Door show, and help get the message out.
It's very easy.
It doesn't change the way you shop at Amazon.
It doesn't cost you anything, but it sure helps support the show.
All you do is you go to JimmyDoorComedy.com.
You click on the Amazon link, which is right on the front page on the right side.
It takes you to Amazon, and then when you buy something, they send us money.
That's all there is to it.
Now let's get back to the show.
Welcome back to the second half of the Jimmy Door show.
We got a lot coming up in the second half.
We got a phone call from Rick Perry.
He just got unindicted.
We're also going to talk about what I saw when I went to the Nevada caucus.
But right now, let's get back to our coverage of the GOP debate where Marco Rubio grew a spine and poked a hole in the clown on stage, Donald Trump.
Let's go right.
Let's get right back to the action.
And Marco Rubio is taking down Trump for repeating the same talking points and having no plan about health care.
Oh, it is.
This is great to see.
I was jumping up and down watching this.
I hope you're jumping up and down listening to it.
Meltdown on the stage like I've never seen anybody.
I thought he came out of it.
Right.
Trump in the middle of a meltdown.
All he can say is melting.
He had a meltdown.
Did anyone see it?
Trump melting down himself.
And that's all he's got to throw.
This is great.
I said, well, let's talk about himself every night.
It says five things.
Everyone's dumb.
He's going to make America great again.
We're going to win, win, win.
He's winning in the polls and the Lions around the street.
Every night, same thing.
Hey, Junior Rubio.
I tell the truth.
I tell the cheers.
Bam.
It does the same five things.
Look at this guy.
This guy.
Who's this guy?
Everybody just took it from Trump for eight months.
Rand Paul just stood there and took it.
Unbelievable.
They all just stood there and took it like wimps.
Finally, you push back a little and Mr. Funny Hair cracks like a pretzel.
Let's see what's happening.
Let's see what else.
Let's go back.
I have time to respond.
If you just let Mr. Trump respond to what you just posted.
Oh, Rubio just will not let up.
So she's like, please, please let Mr. Trump respond.
Okay.
We can talk a little bit more about your plan.
Okay, so let's talk a little bit about.
So Marco Rubio getting it done.
And here, here, here, there's more to that clip.
I'm sorry, I cut it off a little quick.
I know you talked about many different plans because there's going to be competition.
Bam, he says it again.
And Rubio nails him for it.
Let's listen to this again.
This is great.
He can't help himself.
He does it again.
About your plan.
I know you talked about many different plans because there's going to be competition.
And again, there's going to be competition.
There is going to be competition among all of the states and the insurance companies.
They're going to have many, many different plans.
And now she asks them to follow up.
Is there anything else you would like to add to that?
No, there's nothing to add.
What's the end?
What is the end?
Thank you.
Wow.
Rubio just made Trump look like the empty suit that he is.
And guess what?
It didn't take much.
All you had to do was ask him, what's your plan?
Why do you keep repeating the same things?
What's your plan?
You don't have a plan, do you?
You don't know what you're talking about.
Boom.
I'm melting.
I'm melting.
It's like somebody finally acknowledged the big white elephant in the middle of the room.
In the middle of the room.
And here comes, I think this is more Ted Cruz.
Let's see.
In all fairness, Marco is not a negotiator.
So here, now the conversation moves to terrorism.
And Donald Trump thinks he's got him.
Rubio here.
Watch Rubio come out of nowhere.
In all fairness, Marco is not a negotiator.
I watched him melt down, and I'll tell you, it was one of the saddest things I've ever seen.
He is not going down.
He thinks the Palestinian is a real estate deal.
And these people may even be tougher than Chris Christie.
The Palestinians are not a real estate deal, Donald.
No, no, no.
A deal.
They're not a real estate deal.
A little deal is a deal.
Let me tell you.
You're dealing with terrorists.
You are not a negotiator.
You are not a negotiator.
And with your thinking, you will never, you will never bring peace.
You will never bring it together.
Donald might be able to bring those in the Palestinian areas, but he's not going to take it.
This is not a real estate deal.
Bam!
He might be able to build condos on the Palestinian land, but this isn't a real estate deal.
Of course, this guy's got no, boom, he's got no experience doing anything.
This isn't a real running the country.
Is it a real estate deal, Donald?
There's a little more to this.
He will never be able to do it.
I think I may be able to do it.
Although I will say this, probably the toughest deal of any kind is that particular deal.
Let's move on and talk about North.
Yeah, that was his big answer.
So that was Donald Trump.
That was Donald Trump getting it handed to him.
By little Marco Rubio.
Little Marco Rubio is boxing in Donald Trump's ears.
Isn't that something?
Didn't take much.
We've been saying this.
I've been saying this very long.
Why doesn't somebody hire a comedian to write some lines for him?
The guy's got a million.
You just go to Wikipedia.
You just start writing jokes about all the stupid his bankruptcies, his fake university, all his frauds, his three marriages.
You kept talking about how he's not able to even broker a big deal.
So we're in Las Vegas, and I find out.
So there's a big Trump hotel, big.
It says Trump on the top.
It's gold.
It's a hotel.
I'm like, wait a minute.
You mean it's not a casino?
No, it's not a casino.
It's not a casino.
Why?
It's not a casino because the gaming board would not approve a license for him because, and they cited his many bankruptcies and his unethical business practices.
So Mr. I'm going to cut a deal, Mr. Deal Deal Deal.
I know how to do deals.
I work with everybody.
I do deals too corrupt for Vegas.
Couldn't get a gaming license in Las Vegas.
Mr. Deal Maker, which is another thing they don't bring up.
That's why his The Trump Hotel in Vegas is the Trump Hotel and not the Trump Hotel and Casino.
So it's nice to see finally, finally someone stands up to the bully.
Hey, who's this?
Hey, Governor Perry, it's Jimmy Dore.
Oh, hey, Jimmy Doer.
How you living?
I'm doing pretty good, Governor.
How about yourself?
Well, I'm glad you asked.
I'm doing just fine.
Just fine.
To quote another great Texan, all right, all right, all right.
I can only guess you're in such a great mood because it appears your legal troubles are behind you, right?
You know it.
Lady Justice gave old Rick Perry a tender, loving hand job.
How are you feeling about that?
Exhilarated, exonerated, justified, validated, truthicized, rectated, and synergy.
Those are a lot of things.
Yes, it's a very emotional time for me and my family as well.
I look forward to putting this ordeal behind me and moving on to what's next for Rick Perry.
And what would that be, Governor?
I don't know, man.
Going around Texas, rolling up my sleeve, making commercials for nothing in particular, stuff like that.
I guess mainly stumping from a main man and not at all slimy political ally, Ted Cruz.
Oh, that's right.
You've endorsed Ted Cruz.
He got in a little trouble a few weeks ago when it turned out they cast a porn star in one of his campaign videos.
First of all, hold on.
Hold on.
Amy Lindsay is not a porn star.
What?
How so?
She did softcore adult films in the 90s, late-night Cinemax type stuff.
That's it.
Believe me, if she ever did hardcore, I'd know about it.
I've looked.
But none of those girls ever did hardcore.
There was always a real firewall there.
Well, what's the difference?
Well, let's start with the fact that the sex is simulated, dummy.
They're not actually doing it.
It's no different than in an R-rated movie that has a sex scene.
There's no penetration, no clear shots of genitalia.
The actors usually wear a pubic guard of some kind, so there's not even actual skin contact in those regions.
So I think Ted Cruz is standing on pretty solid ground here.
This is just another goofy attack from the left.
Oh, okay.
I see.
Listen, moving on, though.
But I would like to say, though, that Miss Amy Lindsay was not only a popular softcore actress from that period of time.
She was the goddamn best there ever was.
Her angelic girl next door looks, that perfect natural body of hers, that golden blonde hair.
And she can act, too.
She's not just a pretty face.
She made those scenes feel real.
She was a titan of that industry, Jimmy.
Oh, okay.
Okay, Governor Governor Perry.
Can we talk about something else now?
Sure thing, Skeeter.
How damaging do you think this indictment will be for you politically down the road?
Not damaging at all, Jimbo.
In fact, this whole ordeal will ultimately be an asset.
What?
How's that?
Was Nelson Mandela getting out of prison damaging to his political career?
What?
Being unfairly persecuted seemed to work out pretty okay for that dude.
Are you, how could you even compare?
And you were being prosecuted, not persecuted.
There's a difference.
Jimmy, those two words are so similar that I feel comfortable saying that they mean basically the same thing.
Well, they don't.
Agree to disagree.
No, I will not agree to.
Stop persecuting me, man.
Damn, I'm like Jesus up on the cross here being indicted for abusive power.
People tell me what words mean.
They keep pulling bluebell ice cream off the shelves.
Come on, Ricky.
You're being ridiculous.
Am I?
Or am I being wise and savvy?
People around here are good Christians, and Christians love a good martyr, especially if he can spin it so he was being persecuted for being a Christian.
Well, so how are you going to do that?
Just say I'm a Christian and that that's what the reason was.
It's that easy?
Really?
If I'm Christian, my enemies must not be Christian, right?
Like a hot knife through butter.
And when I'm flanked by Teddy Cruz on one side and old Hot Wheels Greg Abbott on the other, I will look completely legitimized and ready to take on a whole new set of political challenges, like starting my 2020 campaign early or being vice president or some shit.
Who knows?
The world is my oyster.
And me wiggling out of this legal mess is the shiny pearl.
Texas, motherfuckers.
Well, I got to go, Jimmy.
I'm still in celebration mode over here.
I found my old VHS copy of Night Eyes 2 with one Miss Amy Lindsay that I taped off cable back in 1998.
I'm going to be indisposed for a while, if you know what I mean.
All right, Governor, let you go.
I think Lisa boils in this one, too.
Man, she's a hot rack of biscuits fresh out of the oven, also.
Bye-bye.

And you spell Sean, S-H-A-U-N.
Okay, no, I spent last week in Las Vegas covering the caucus, both caucuses, the Democrat and Republican.
And what I was, it was amazing.
First of all, remember that Nevada hasn't caucused, right?
They used to do a primary.
Now, what's the difference?
Primary is where you vote.
You get a ballot, you vote.
A caucus is where you get together and they count your head.
You get on the side of the room.
Everybody who supports Hillary here, everybody who supports Bernie here, and then they count you and you talk to each other and you're supposed to convince each other to come over To the other side, it's more chaotic.
The reason why, you know, Pete DeLessandro, who was the Bernie Sanders campaign organizer in Iowa, told us that, well, caucuses are there to help the party.
They're there to strengthen the party.
Meaning, guess who's running those caucuses?
It's really the Democratic Party who's the Democratic Party who's running those caucuses, right?
So they're going to engineer it any way they want, just like Chris Matthews said at the top of this show.
Harry Reid went to every one of those casinos to make sure his party won.
His party won?
Or Hillary Clinton.
So that's what caucuses, they're not a good way to vote.
I don't like them.
Now, here's what we witnessed at the Paris Hotel.
They were letting people caucus who weren't registered.
They were people trying to trick Bernie Sanders into being Hillary's.
They didn't choose the delegates.
It was chaos.
I can't even, words can't describe how chaotic it was.
So we had a video that got picked up by Rolling Stone Magazine.
They mentioned our coverage of this caucus and all the chaos, right?
So we're patting ourselves on the back there.
It's nice.
Second time we go out to cover something as a journalist, there's a reporter, and it gets noticed by a lot of people.
A couple websites picks it up.
Rolling Stone gave us a nice mention.
Breaking my arm, patting myself in the back with this.
So go over and check out that video.
I can't do it justice on the show today, but if you go to jimmydoorcomedy.com or you go to youtube.com slash thejimmy door show that's where all our videos are i encourage everyone to go there and subscribe when you get there so go to uh youtube.com slash the jimmy door show and when you get there subscribe you'll see all the videos of the people we talk to in las vegas and all the videos we put together the one that got picked up by rolling stone will be there and it really shows you the deficiencies of the caucus
and how the caucuses are used by the party to get the outcome that they want, right?
It's not really transparent.
You have to rely on people.
Anyway, go watch that video and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.
And one more thing I wanted to, one point I want to make about caucuses is that they disenfranchise working people.
In Des Moines, in Iowa, when I was there, the caucus happens in the evening.
It started at 5.30 at night or 6 at night.
And so I remember I asked the waitress, hey, how are you going to caucus tonight?
She's like, no, I have to work.
So everyone in that restaurant, anyone who works in a restaurant can't caucus.
Anyone who works in a bar can't caucus.
Anyone who works evenings cannot caucus.
So you're disenfranchising working people.
You know who can caucus?
The owners.
The owners of those businesses can caucus.
It seems to be a system that no one likes except the party.
Coincidentally enough, isn't that funny?
No one likes it.
I was at a Republican caucus on Tuesday.
No one there like the caucus system.
Nobody at the Democratic caucus like that system.
Nobody at the Republican caucus like that system.
It's almost like the party elites don't care about the will of the people, just like Chris Matthews said at the top of the show.
Isn't that amazing?
It's almost like they want to make sure they can control things.
And of course they do.
They have self-interest.
They're clubs.
Democrats, Republicans, they're looking at it that way.
They're a club.
They want to make sure their club is strong.
They want to make sure their club guy gets in.
So we also talked to some people at a Ted Cruz event and their answers about health care and why they support Ted and the mental gymnastics.
Well, here it comes.
Let's get to some of it.
So we were in Nevada.
On Monday, we headed out to a Ted Cruz event in Summerlin, Nevada, which is about 15 minutes northwest of the strip in Las Vegas.
And kind of an interesting story.
On our way in, we were getting closer to the event.
We were following a guy whose bumper stickers on his car said, I'm not a liberal.
And then Hillary lied and four people died.
And he had a picture of a gun on it, an assault weapon.
So we knew what we were getting into.
Like, whoa, we don't want to be near that guy.
Anyway, so we go in and we set up our camera near the press pool where we're supposed to be.
And these two old people sat down right next to us.
And they were all they're both white haired, senior citizens.
And they could not be more enthusiastic for Ted Cruz.
Every line Ted Cruz said, they were like, woo.
Yeah, Ted Cruz.
So I wanted to interview this guy afterwards.
And every time I talked to somebody, I wanted to ask him about health care because they all want to get rid of Obamacare, even though we all know that health care was screwed up in our country.
Still is screwed up, but it's a little bit better with Obamacare.
Certainly not the answer we all are looking for.
But I always ask people that.
And this gentleman was retired.
I knew that.
And he was a retired Air Force officer from Vietnam.
Came home from Vietnam in 1968.
So I knew he had government health care.
And so that's why I always want to ask people about the health care and how they get their health care and how they think.
So here's my question to this retired Air Force officer from Vietnam who's a big Ted Cruz supporter.
Also, he says he likes Ted Cruz because he has a prayer group every Tuesday morning.
We're not going to show you that in this part.
You can watch the whole video of me interviewing this guy and all our other interviews over at Jimmy Dore, over at the Jimmy Dore show on YouTube.
So I always like to ask them what they think about health care, especially when they're on government health care.
And if they want other people to have just as good as health care as they have, let's see what they say.
But I love Ted Cruz and I just am a supporter.
And I had my 79th birthday today, but I came back from Vietnam in 1968.
Well, happy birthday.
Thank you.
And God bless you.
And thank you for your service.
And let me have you one more question.
So now, are you on Medicare now?
I'm on Medicare and TRICARE for Life.
Oh, okay.
And how is that working out?
How is that working out?
Works out very good.
My wife had to go see a doctor this morning.
No kidding.
And I asked Jessica, I said, do you take TRICARE for Life and Medicare?
She said, we do.
So that's one thing that they haven't changed.
Okay.
But I am very blessed to be alive and in my right mind.
So Ted Cruz.
So there you go.
He's on Medicare and TRICARE for Life.
Getting government, health care.
Everything's working out fine for him.
Government, health care.
He loves it.
Runs great.
The guy who's supporting is Ted Cruz.
Hates government-run health care.
Hates government-run anything.
Conservatives hate government-run anything.
Now here's a guy who comes from government-run military.
Goes to government-run health care.
Loves them both.
So it turns out government can run stuff.
We just have to run it right.
And you know, just like what happened in Michigan and what happened in Kansas, when you hire people, when you elect people who don't think government works, they think government is the problem.
When you hire them like they did in Michigan, when you elect them, they break government.
And that's what Ted Cruz will do.
He'll break the government.
He'll make the things that used to work in the government not work anymore.
So here I ask him directly about Obamacare.
So Ted Cruz said on his first day, one of the things he wants to repeal Obamacare, right?
And are you behind that?
I am 100% behind that.
All his illegal, executive, unconstitutional rights.
orders that he's made because he said if i don't get congress he never gave him a chance because he's bad mouthing the police and he's causing race relation challenges.
But I love God and I love my country and I'm a freedom fighter.
Yes.
You know, I don't know what race relations have to do with Obamacare, but he wants to get rid of it.
And I should have asked him, do you want to want everyone to have Medicare like you?
So that was me falling down the job, not asking that follow-up question.
But that was very interesting.
I did talk to one other gent about Obamacare.
Maybe now we talked to him for a little while longer, and this is kind of interesting, I thought.
He was talking about, I asked him, because Ted Cruz wants to rebuild the military, and which, you know, we spend more money on the military than the next eight countries combined.
What do we got to rebuild it?
So I asked him what he means by that.
And here's the interesting part.
Now, remember how I started this video about we were following someone into the event and the things on their back of their car.
Watch this.
Really ticks me off.
On my bumper sticker, I got pray and then vote.
Hillary, four Americans died and Hillary lied.
There it is.
That's the guy.
That's the guy we were following in.
We take a picture of it because we think it's so hilarious.
He ends up sitting next to us and then he brings it up.
And there it is.
And hopefully they'll put her in jail someday because she's a piece of work.
They really want Hillary in jail, by the way.
Every event I went to, if there's one thing Republicans agree on, it's their unified hatred of Hillary Clinton.
And they will never come over to vote for her.
So I just wanted, I thought that was hilarious.
And by the way, I thought this guy was the sweetest guy.
I liked him.
He seemed nice.
He reminded me of my uncle.
And yet here he is supporting a guy who's an obvious demagogue who wants to break our country.
If there's one overriding theme of all the Republican voters that I talk to, it's that this sense of fairness that someone else is getting away with something that they're not getting.
And especially an immigrant is getting something that their taxes are going to pay for.
It really crossed their sense of fairness.
And so here I asked this gentleman about Obamacare, and here's how we read.
Better for people.
Of the 15 to 17 people that signed up for Obamacare outside on the government subsidies, how many are here legally in the United States?
They're not reporting that, but there's only about 15 to 17 million signed up, and about 13 million of them are not even U.S. citizens.
So there's a guy, again, a big theme running through whenever I would go to a Republican caucus or the big theme is they're afraid illegal immigrants, poor people who don't deserve it, are getting health care or they're getting something that he's paying for.
It's coming out of his taxes to go to an immigrant.
So I always say, remember, if you ever find yourself being angry at someone lower on the economic ladder than you, pretty good chance you're being manipulated by someone higher on the economic ladder.
And now he's upset that, you know, most of the people who got on Obamacare are illegal.
You heard him say that, illegal immigrants.
They're not even citizens.
So they're upset that someone is getting something they're not supposed to.
There's a sense of fairness inside them that's being violated and that they have to pay for it.
But what it really comes down to is they've been manipulated to be angry at the poorest people in the country and the people with no power.
And somehow giving them health care is screwing up our country.
The people who come here to work to pick our fruit, to clean our hotel rooms, to cook our food, to watch our kids.
Those people somehow, if they get to see a doctor when they're sick, that's a screwed up system.
So, but of course, they don't look at it like that.
But I'm telling you, that's what it is.
Okay, so he goes on.
He uses some statistics here to justify not liking Barack Obama's Obamacare.
I'm going to have him repeat it three times.
You'll see what I'm talking about.
Insurance wasn't the problem.
It's controlling the cost, and that's getting rid of the lobbyists from the insurance industry and cleaning them out.
Yeah, so you're saying that the kind of there's too much money corrupting.
Obamacare was nothing but a tax, like the Supreme Court said.
And it was to appease the insurance companies.
In fact, my insurance rates.
So he's got it like half right.
Like Obamacare was like a giveaway to the insurance companies, which it was.
It mandated people had to buy something from a private company.
It was a windfall for the private insurance companies.
It really was.
Their stock prices went up.
We know that.
So he's got it half right.
But he doesn't understand that why would a liberal Democrat do something that helps inflate private business?
It's because he's a corporate Democrat.
But it doesn't, but he thinks it's because he's a liberal.
He wants to tax people.
So it's, do you see how they get it?
I'm sure that's what's being said on the Mark Levin show, the Russ Limbaugh show, the Sean Hannity show, Bill O'Reilly.
That's what they're saying.
Oh, it's just a tax instead of, well, look, this is a right-wing healthcare plan, the Heritage Foundation.
We came up with this because we don't want to give people Medicare for all.
So we came up with this private insurance system that screws everybody.
And Barack Obama is actually building on that.
So again, it's like, and I'm not to disparage this guy, right?
This guy is just a representative of Ted Cruz voters of half the country, I would say, even maybe even more.
So no diss to this guy personally.
I like this guy actually virtually.
Here we go.
Went up 30% two years in a row.
So here's his big...
Here is his big, watch the mental gymnastics he does in order to hate Obamacare.
Watch this.
Okay, this is, I'm going to have him repeat it a couple times.
I would say he's going to start telling about it.
So here he starts talking about his own insurance rate premiums increase.
Kind of comes out of nowhere.
But watch the mental gymnastics he does to twist it into being Obamacare's fault.
Accidents, like the Supreme Court said.
And it was to appease the insurance companies.
In fact, my insurance rates went up 30% two years in a row before Obamacare was approved.
My premiums from my company.
Okay, so did you catch what he said?
I'm going to ask him to clarify it again.
He said before Obamacare, his insurance premium rates went up 30% for two years before Obamacare.
So to me, I'm thinking in my head as he's saying this, oh, so you would be happy about Obamacare then, right?
Well, let's see what happens.
That's before Obamacare or after Obamacare was the insurance companies were already preparing for it to pass.
So after they padded their profits before it even passed.
Oh, so after it passed, it hasn't gone up.
They preloaded it.
It's gone up a little bit, but not as much.
But they preloaded 60 points on me two years in a row, 30 points each year.
Okay.
So I'm like, oh, I get it now.
This is totally upside down.
And so what he's saying is, look, the insurance companies, when there was no Obamacare regulation, could jack up your rates 30% a year, which they did.
And now after Obamacare, he says, oh, it hasn't really gone up much.
He doesn't look at it like, wow, look at how crazy and unregulated it was.
They could jack up my rates 30% a year.
And I couldn't do anything about it.
But here, then they pass Obamacare, and he just flips that logic on its head.
It says, because of Obamacare, they screwed me before it.
Okay, I hope you appreciated that interview.
There's a lot more to that interview, and there's a lot more stuff to talk about, but we don't have time in today's podcast.

And you know what's nice?
We're going out live and we're covering stuff.
Like I've never been to a caucus before.
I've never been to a primary.
I've never interviewed people like this.
It's great to do.
And it was super rewarding and super flattering to see our reporting that we did from the caucus in Nevada got an organic pickup from Rolling Stone magazine.
They mentioned our covers.
They gave us a whole paragraph in their article.
And they linked to our video from Rolling Stone Magazine.
Plus, several other websites picked it up too.

Okay.
Thanks for supporting the show.
Thanks for helping us grow.
Because this is it for progressives, right?
There's no more progressive news on the television.
MSNBC, I don't know if you heard what happened, but they haven't been airing Melissa Harris Perry, which I'm no huge fan of, but she is an African-American and there is a big racist running for president and they've been keeping her off the air.
Okay.
And she wrote a big thing about it today.
You probably will hear about it before you hear this.
Maybe you won't.
But we're going to talk about it in this week's premium because guess what MSNBC did?
So not only are they not putting her on, but Ted Cruz's communications director, too big of a liar to work with Ted Cruz.
Ted Cruz fired him.
Too big of a liar.
MSNBC hired him today.
That's right.
They're not putting on Melissa Harris Perry, but they're bringing on the biggest guy who's too big of a liar to work with Ted Cruz.
That's a career.
So liberalism is dead.
There's no progressive media.
It's dead.
This is where it is.
It's right here, the Jimmy Door Show.
So thank you very much for making this happen.
We're growing.
We're becoming a real thing.
And you're doing it with us.
Thank you for your help.
