| Every time Kamala Harris speaks, she is less popular. | |
| I believe that. | |
| I don't know how much less popular. | |
| The people who are voting for Kamala Harris are not voting for her because she's genuine, because she's deep, because she's wise, because she has wonderful policies. | |
| They're voting for her because she's a left-wing Democrat. | |
| Which is what almost all Democrats are. | |
| That's it. | |
| They would vote for Tim Walls if Tim Walls were the nominee for president. | |
| If it was Walls-Harris, it would make no difference. | |
| And when he opens his mouth, are people impressed? | |
| The number of serious lies as opposed to Trump's Generally not serious lies. | |
| It's Trumpian exaggeration. | |
| I'm not excusing it, but I have to put it in context. | |
| I have the biggest crowd since Moses took the Israelites through the Red Sea. | |
| Miranda Devine, who's a great writer at the New York Post, it is painful to hear and even worse to transcribe. | |
| Kamala Harris's word salads. | |
| But here goes. | |
| With, you know, 28 days to go. | |
| I'm not Donald Trump. | |
| And so when we think about the significance of what this next generation of leadership looks like, were I to be elected president, it is about, frankly, I love the American people. | |
| And I believe in our country. | |
| And I, I, I love that it is our character and nature to be an ambitious people. | |
| You know we have aspirations, we have dreams, we have incredible work ethic. | |
| I analyzed this when I played it for you the other day. | |
| So if you're intellectually honest, here's a question. | |
| Given that we would all acknowledge Americans did have a work ethic, it was called the Protestant Work Ethic. | |
| It is one of the most famous books of sociology ever written. | |
| Who wrote that book? | |
| What was his name? | |
| Weber? | |
| Yeah. | |
| The Protestant Work Ethic. | |
| You know, I'm a religious committed Jew, and I have great... | |
| Admiration for Protestantism. | |
| Max Weber. | |
| Max Weber, yeah, the German sociologist, yeah. | |
| What has the left done to compare to what Protestants have done? | |
| Okay. | |
| Just, I'm saying, positively. | |
| Just as an interesting question. | |
| A lot of leftists have fortunes of money. | |
| So how many hospitals have been built by Catholics, Protestants, and Jews, right? | |
| Such-and-such Baptist Hospital, right? | |
| Saint-something Hospital, Beth Israel Hospital. | |
| Where are the leftist hospitals? | |
| I mean, maybe it's an unfair question, but I'm just curious. | |
| What the leftists will say is, no, what they do is push government to make hospitals, which is exactly what big government does. | |
| Big government removes altruism. | |
| Big government crushes the human desire to do good on their own. | |
| I don't have to do good. | |
| The state will. | |
| That is how the left looks at life and teaches people to look at life. | |
| Leftists volunteer much less time than conservatives to charities. | |
| Look it up. | |
| Because they don't want to do that. | |
| The government will do it. | |
| Why should I? So the work ethic... | |
| When she talks about American work ethic as a leftist... | |
| And you know, I'm reading the transcription, and it's interesting that every time she said she loved America, she says I three times. | |
| She sort of stutters. | |
| It's because it's not true. | |
| So I think there was difficulty in her saying it. | |
| She loves the American people? | |
| Does that include the MAGA crowd? | |
| I believe in our country. | |
| Yes. | |
| What is it? | |
| If you fundamentally transform the country, they love it. | |
| I asked this, God, when did that happen? | |
| 2016? | |
| Yeah, right? | |
| No, 2012. So I asked this 12 years ago. | |
| How can you claim you love a country you want to fundamentally transform? | |
| Barack Obama's words. | |
| Remember that? | |
| I think it was 2008, wasn't it? | |
| Oh, 2008? | |
| 2008. Yeah, 2008. He was elected 8 and 12. That's right. | |
| Trump's 16. Yeah. | |
| So 16 years ago, I made the point. | |
| 16 years ago, as soon as he said it. | |
| How do you claim to love what you want to fundamentally transform? | |
| And I remember the analogy I gave. | |
| I love my wife. | |
| And I want to fundamentally transform her. | |
| Now, anything you want to fundamentally transform, you don't love. | |
| What you love is yourself. | |
| There was more, but you get the picture, writes Miranda Devine in the New York Post. | |
| The true awfulness has to be seen because she punctuates what is now called her word salad with fake passion And hand on heart sincerity and disconcerting hand waving. |
