[00:00:18]  Hi, everybody.
[00:00:19]  Welcome to the Monday show, the Dennis Prager Show.
[00:00:23]  The very end of the week, I will be broadcasting from Miami for over a week.
[00:00:28]  Well, actually for an entire week.
[00:00:32]  It's a fascinating reason.
[00:00:34]  I am being brought there by The Daily Wire to do part two of the Book of Exodus with Jordan Peterson and a group of us.
[00:00:47]  And it has become quite popular at The Daily Wire if you're interested.
[00:00:53]  And you would be.
[00:00:56]  What do people do?
[00:00:57]  Just go to the Daily Wire and type in Exodus, I guess.
[00:01:02]  It'll just be there, yeah.
[00:01:05]  Daily Wire and PragerU and me have a very wonderful relationship, as you can probably tell.
[00:01:13]  So, the President of the United States went to the border where vast numbers of people have been coming in illegally.
[00:01:22]  Almost entirely thanks to him.
[00:01:24]  Not entirely, but almost entirely.
[00:01:27]  But not just him, of course, the Democratic Party and the left generally.
[00:01:35]  And then when you accuse the left of having no interest in the United States surviving as a sovereign state, you're accused of exaggerating.
[00:01:45]  That's what you call gaslighting.
[00:01:48]  Watch me destroy America.
[00:01:49]  But if you, in fact, Charge me with destroying America.
[00:01:54]  Well, you're lying.
[00:01:58]  What aspect of America is the left not destroying?
[00:02:02]  There's a great picture of the President of the United States by the wall with five, what are they, not National Guardsmen, Border Patrol people.
[00:02:12]  It's a powerful, it's just a powerful and inspiring sight.
[00:02:16]  You know what I would like to know?
[00:02:18]  What did those people think of him?
[00:02:21]  Wouldn't you love to know?
[00:02:22]  You know what I asked myself looking at the picture, and many of you might have seen the picture.
[00:02:27]  It's literally, I think, five Border Patrol people and the President.
[00:02:32]  I asked myself, if I worked at the Border Patrol there and I was one of the five, or I were one of the five, what would I do?
[00:02:44]  Would I shake his hand?
[00:02:46]  Let's say I had the views that I have, which...
[00:02:49]  Hold him in utter contempt.
[00:02:51]  I think he's actually a bad human being aside from a bad president.
[00:02:57]  So it is a very, it's a tough issue.
[00:03:01]  Because I also believe that you respect the presidency even if you have contempt for the president.
[00:03:08]  So I would shake his hand.
[00:03:12]  Because if I didn't, it's not like he would say, gee, what have I done wrong?
[00:03:19]  That this member of the Border Patrol wouldn't shake my hand.
[00:03:25]  A gesture has to actually have some desired effect.
[00:03:30]  I think that we would all agree to that.
[00:03:33]  So I would probably shake his hand and then say nothing.
[00:03:38]  Or maybe say my piece.
[00:03:41]  Mr. President, I assume you are aware of how many people are entering.
[00:03:48]  Every day, week, month, illegally.
