Time Text
Oh, yeah, yeah.
That's one other thing about Kasich last night talking about this hypothetical Bank of America failure.
Casey says some people can afford to lose.
He would means test.
You know, Cruz was saying that there are mechanisms here.
If banks fail uh to take care of depositors beyond the FDIC.
And Kasich was up there waving his arms and listen to me, listen to me.
I'm the only one who knows what I'm talking about here.
I'm the only one that's done it.
You know, you see guys are philosophers in theory.
Ethereum gonna buy a carton of milk for the mailman, they're gonna get you a damn thing.
I've done it, I've worked hard, I've worked with them, I've worked with people, I've compromised.
I've got people disappearing and disagreeing, and I've found them, and I put them together, and I've done it all.
And all this theory and all this philosophy.
I'm sorry, it's crazy.
What am I doing here?
This is a crazy you people don't even know what you're talking about.
I'm the only one up here who knows what I'm talking about.
You know about a bank failure?
Screw it.
But you know what?
You know what?
Some families, they can afford to lose it.
Whoa, I stood up.
That's the kind of talk you get from people like Dick Gephardt and Hillary Clinton.
Some people can afford to lose it, or whatever he said.
I mean, that was the point that he made.
Well, some people don't need to if they bail out, they lose everything in a in a bank going, I'm just okay, they got enough.
It's really.
You people may not know it.
John Kasich used to be a carbon copy of Newt Gingrich back in the for those of you that don't know that that's why this is so shocking to a lot of people is who Kasich used to be.
And he still thinks he is, that's the thing.
But what he's essentially saying is, oh yeah, I can be as conservative as anybody talking about it.
Yeah, I'm right.
I'm as good a conservative as anybody, but you can't govern that way.
You have to be liberal.
You have to be moderate.
You have to be, you understand people's feelings.
You can work with people, you know, human beings.
You know, you work with human beings.
We can't harm them, we can't harm them, we can't let them get hurt.
These are human beings.
And the implication is that conservatism is unkind to human being just unkind to human beings.
It just it really is a big disconnect.
I don't know that he understands it.
Cruz was pointing out that the Fed issues emergency loans, and that's what Gasparino's point was after the debate that the two guys that worked in the banking industry, supposedly, didn't uh know any of these things.
Anyway, greetings, my friends, and welcome back.
It's great to have you here on the EIB now.
The minimum wage came up again uh in in the debate last night.
And of course, the greatest the the one of the biggest obstacles to the concept of rising wages is the minimum wage.
It stands right in the way.
When you establish a minimum wage, so many things happen.
The first thing that happens, you have just established the floor arbitrarily, and when you establish the floor, then there are a lot of people not qualified to earn that amount of money.
They're not gonna be hired.
The second thing is, and this is what people don't think about.
When you have a minimum wage, whatever it is, I think they're talking $15 an hour.
Okay, then that's it.
That's all anybody's gonna be making until they mandate the minimum wage go up again.
Unless the employee just happens to be so good and gets so noticed that he starts getting raises, he or she.
But the minimum wage, the unions want it because it does establish a new floor.
They say, well, if you're gonna pay these people, don't know what they're doing, 15 bucks an hour, you've got to raise us.
But it's again, it's a it's a phony issue.
It's almost a hoax, too.
The but it's a great way to prove you're compassionate.
Support the minimum wage.
Great way to prove that people who oppose it are heartless and mean-spirited, and if you're in favor of raising the minimum wage, we're a big heart compassionate.
You love people, and you're concerned about the families.
Uh and so forth.
And it's it's used in in in that fashion, but it economically is a loser and has been proven to be A loser over and over again.
Now, to the University of Missouri and this what looks to be like a series of hoaxes.
First, let's look at the hunger strike kid.
Student.
His name is Jonathan Butler.
And my source for this is none other than the vaunted St. Louis Post Dispatch.
Story that ran yesterday or the day before.
Jonathan Butler, a central figure in the protests at the University of Missouri, is an Omaha native and the son of a railroad vice president, according to the Omaha World Herald.
Butler refused food last week in a move to force the university systems president Timothy Wolf from office.
Wolfe resigned Monday and Butler ended his hunger strike.
His hunger strike lasted a couple of days.
I mean big whoop.
I once fasted for a whole month.
Nobody had to resign.
Nobody had to quit.
I didn't threaten anybody.
I just did it.
I did it on a dare.
I was twenty-one, twenty two, nothing but uh water.
I took some vitamin pills, but people said if you're not eating anything, the vitamin pills are not going to matter.
I said, well, they might psychologically.
Jonathan Butler is in his eighth year at Mizzou.
He's a graduate student.
He played has screw football at Omaha Central High, where he won a state championship.
He earned a bachelor's degree in business administration from Mizzou.
He's working toward a master's degree in educational leadership and hoaxes policy.
He's a member of a prominent Omaha family.
The newspaper says that Butler's father is Eric L. Butler, executive vice president for sales and marketing for Union Pacific Railroad.
His 2014 compensation, Jonathan Butler's dad, 8.4 million.
The hunger strike kid, the hunger strike student, struggling and fighting for social justice, battling against racism and the inequality and the lack of social justice on the campus at Missouri.
Father earned 8.4 million last year.
And we know it because of regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Eric Butler, the father and his wife Cynthia, serve as pastors of the Joy of Life Ministries.
Along with Jonathan Butler, the couple has two other children.
Butler, who was seen walking on the Missoula campus yesterday, has declined to be interviewed by the St. Louis Post Dispatch, other than to say he was feeling better.
Okay, so he doesn't have anything in common with the poor.
He doesn't in common with the suffering.
He doesn't have any is a typical guilt-liden, guilt redden rich kid who probably has been gotten to by the race hustlers and the civil rights activists.
I don't know what happened, but clearly he's not the picture presented.
He's not a poor, struggling, and apparently what started all of this is that he lost his health insurance or a part of it in his graduate student years because of Obamacare.
Here is that story.
Bonfire of the Academy, as liberal adults abdicate the kids take charge on campus.
By bonfire of the Academy, it's a Wall Street Journal editorial.
We mean a conflict of values about the idea of a university that now threatens to undermine or destroy universities as a place of learning, exhibit A, the ruin called the University of Missouri.
In the 60s at Cornell, Columbia, Berkeley, and elsewhere, the self-described student left occupied buildings with what they often called non-negotiable demands.
In the decades since the Academy, its leaders and faculties, by and large, has accommodated many of those demands regarding appropriate academic Subjects, admissions policies, and what has become the aggressive and non-tolerant politics of identity and grievance.
In the United States, by now, the instinct of the overwhelming majority of people is to address such complaints in good faith.
Investigate them and remediate when necessary.
Only the tiniest minority would wish to see racial grievances bleed indefinitely.
Yet the kids assert that America is irredeemably racist.
See, this is the first clue to me.
The first clue to me when any of this racial stuff comes up, it's always presented as though this is still the 1840s and the 1850s, and we still have slavery, and there's still plantations, and there hasn't been anything done to address it.
That is the narrative of every one of these so-called racial oppression stories or events.
And the race hustlers in the race industry and the Black Lives Matter crowd in the Occupy Wall Street and the Reverend Sharpton and Jackson come getting gear and play to type and create this illusion there hasn't been any progress, and because there can't be any progress, because America is in its DNA racist.
America as founded is no good and cannot be perfected or fixed.
America must be overthrown, torn down, ripped apart, or what have you.
And it's that infuriates me, and that's when I lose them, because they the whole thing begins on a bunch of false premises.
That there has been no effort, there have been no grievances addressed, that slavery is still around, that racism is worse than ever, the discrimination is worse than ever, that hatred is more intense than it's ever been.
None of those things are true, and they're not even close to being true.
Now, most people think that what's going on here is eh, rush, come on, you've got to get over this.
This is just happens.
Teenagers and young adults, they go to school and they rebel and they protest.
That's not what this is.
This is way beyond that, folks.
This is way beyond.
I mean, even the 60s to a certain extent.
This is way beyond.
The objectives here are much different.
They are more serious and they're greater.
And another reason it's different is because the 60s radicals are now running the show and they're in charge of way too much of our government of our universities.
And their objective is to tear down.
Their objective is to rip apart.
And in the process, they they teach this is the thing.
I mean, professors are teaching all this hatred.
They have these young skullomush come into class and they tell them how they don't have a chance.
America's worthy of being hated.
You should hate this country.
This country hates you.
This country isn't going to give you a shot.
If you're female, if you're lesbian, if you're gay, if you're bi, if you're African American, if you're Hispanic, you don't have a chance because white privilege runs this country.
And if you're not white, you're forever going to be picking up the garbage, taking out the trash for everybody else.
You're nothing.
You're a non-entity.
And after years and years of teaching these people this stuff, and finally anger is boiled over, and we're where we are.
But here's what really happened here in the case of old Jonathan Butler, whose father makes 8.4 million in Nebraska working for Union Pacific.
Hunger strike kid, behind the headlines.
This might be the real beginning of this whole hoax at Mizzou.
Behind the headlines was a festering dispute between the scrubel administration and graduate students over cutbacks to their health care coverage.
Student Jonathan Butler listed among the reasons for his hunger strike that, quote, graduate students were being robbed of their health insurance.
Less noted in the news coverage is that an August posting on the website of Mizzou's Division of Graduate Studies explains in detail that the health insurance cutbacks are the explicit result of Obamacare.
Obamacare's regulations forbid employers like universities From paying for their grad students' health insurance.
Did you know that?
Obamacare, because they want to force everybody into the exchanges.
Once you get your four-year degree and you're a grad student, you can no longer get your health insurance from the school, i.e., your employer or the place you go, place you work.
You've got to get it on your own.
You've got to go to an exchange, or you've got to pay a penalty.
It was Obamacare.
It wasn't the university president.
It wasn't the University of Missouri, except to the extent that they signed on to Obamacare, and by law they have to.
So a butler here, whose dad's got $8.4 million in salary last year, bonus earnings whatever, had his health care taken away as a graduate student.
So harumph harumph and started all this.
And then there have been other hoaxes.
One of the biggest hoaxes it looks like has been exposed by a writer at uh PJ Media.
Remember the story about the swastika?
That apparently there was a there was a report at two in the morning in a dorm.
An innocent young flower of a student was walking the hallways on the way to the bathroom and noticed a swastika on the walls that had been formed using human feces.
For those of you on Rio Linda, that's number two.
And the student was shocked and scared and felt unsafe and felt violated and ran to the nearest, didn't take a picture, just ran and told people about it.
There was there has yet to be any evidence that that swastika ever existed.
Not a shred's worth of evidence, but nobody had the guts to stand up to the complaining, whining student, demand proof.
Where's the picture?
There was no immediate investigation of it.
To this day, they can't find any evidence that a swastika drawn with feces on the wall of a dorm ever happened.
And then there's the student body president.
This guy is his own piece of work.
I take a brief time out, and when we get back, fill you in a little bit on this guy.
Just one of the things that he did was make up the fact that he knew the Ku Klux Klan was on campus.
The KKK has a chapter in Columbia.
They're on campus and they are harassing us.
It was a rumor, and he has admitted he made it all up.
There's more.
It was a rough night on the campus of University of Missouri, thanks in large part to a student body president, Peyton Head.
Head posted on Facebook earlier in the night that the KKK was confirmed on campus and he was working with the campus police, the state troopers, and the National Guard.
The only problem, it wasn't true.
And Peyton Head, the student body president, was forced to delete his post.
Put it on Facebook.
Put it on Facebook, social media, everybody thinks KKK has an operating chapter on the campus of Missoula, and they don't.
Now at this stage, you have all these students at Mizzou, and every one of them are the vast majority of them have a cell phone, and all the cell phones have cameras.
And the students all live on social media, and they're posting pictures and everything about themselves they can think of on social media.
And yet, not one picture of the poop swastika.
Not one picture of a car driving around with Confederate flags.
Not one video of somebody walking down the street calling an innocent University of Missouri child the N-word.
There isn't any proof for any of this.
There isn't any evidence that any of it happened.
The evidence is the student body president lied about the KKK and that the hunger strike kid doesn't have much in common with anybody who makes less than $8 million a year.
So, By the way, student body president.
This was uncovered and reported yesterday on our St. Louis affiliate, KMOX.
Student body president is African American.
They made him homecoming king in an effort to prove that the school is not racist or any of that.
So he's a student body president, Peyton Head, he's a homecoming king.
Oh, and did I mention he's from Chicago and has interned for Rahm Emanuel?
The student body president at Mizzou.
So no poop swastika photos, no photos of the Confederate flag, no video of some Mizzou child having to hear the N-word.
And the school cannot ever admit they were hoax.
Can you imagine the lawsuits from the people that were fired?
So I just checked the email, and there's a bunch of angry emails.
It's obviously organized campaign.
What do you mean?
Ferguson, Missouri incident was a hoax.
That's exactly what I mean.
Hands up, don't shoot, didn't happen.
And you know the really dangerous thing about this is how many people do you think still, particularly young African Americans, but liberals in general on social media.
How many of them do you think it actually did happen?
How many, how many people in this country, particularly young, impressionable youths, really still believe that the gentle giant was just that, gentle giant.
They don't know that he held up a convenience store and roughed up the owner.
They don't know that he was walking down the middle of the street.
No, they've been told that he was happily walking down the sidewalk, eagerly anticipating his first days at college.
Yes, because that's what he was going to do.
And then a murderous, racist white cop drove up, and without provocation, shot him in the back while the gentle giant was running away with his hands up, saying, I surrender, I surrender.
And they believe this happened.
So we have the grand jury hearing.
Witness after witness after witness after witness after witness after witness after witness.
Nobody told the story the way the leftists wanted it told.
In fact, what happened was the gentle giant attacked the cop, tried to get his gun, attacked him inside the cop car.
We've had another life ruined here.
The cop's life has been ruined.
And this is what the left does.
It's either Republican candidates, Republican presidential candidates, or whoever they run, they'll destroy anybody in their way.
The gentle giant wasn't gentle.
He was not murdered.
I mean, it's a it's a sad incident, but if the kid had just been told no in his life a couple of times, maybe he wouldn't have had the attitude that he had that caused all this to happen.
My point is that's the hoax.
Hands up, don't shoot is the hoax.
Hands up, don't poop is the hoax with the feces swastika.
Students at the young impressionable children that attend University of Missouri can't handle the N-word being shot at, but there's no evidence it was.
There's no videotape, there's no pictures of the poop swastika, and no pictures of cars driving around with the Confederate flag, and there's no KKK chapter.
And you know what else has come out?
Football team was not united on this boycott business.
The football team was nowhere near united on boycotting the rest of the season or practice.
We were we were lied to.
We were set up this planned and executed long ago.
And you'd have to say it was a brilliantly planned and especially well-executed hoax.
All because nobody's willing to stand up to any of these people.
And at this point, you're not going to hear very many people, and certainly nobody in officialdom at the university even using the word hoax.
They can't admit to being hoaxed for two reasons.
How embarrassing.
But secondly, a university president and chancellor were essentially fired, forced to resign, or else.
And by the way, this mass media studies, babe.
I saw the video of this last night.
This is hilarious.
You've got this Asian American photographer.
I wouldn't even notice Asian American except I've been sensitized to it now by the left.
You got this Asian American photographer, and he's trying to take pictures, a still still photographer trying to take pictures.
Got a nice Nikon or Pentax, it looks like.
He's trying to take still pictures of the protesters.
And there's a bunch of people saying, No, you can't come here.
You can't come here.
You don't have the right.
And this guy, what do you mean to write?
Have you ever heard of the First Amendment?
I'm a journalist here.
I'm covering what you don't want you here.
We don't want you here.
Little children, the students.
We don't want you.
Finally to grab this babe from this mass media professor.
And she panicked.
You can't come in here.
You can't be here.
You can't.
And she ran off looking for help.
Looking.
She wanted some muscle to come over and kick this nice, harmless Asian American child photographer out of the surroundings.
Which is another thing.
You know, the left is scratching their heads over this, because they think that the protesters ought to look at the media as friendly, but yet the protesters were looking at the media as the enemy, or enema, as it were, given the feces swastika.
So nothing played to type here.
Anyway, that babe has been fired.
The mass media studies, and we read you her bio yesterday, and it's embarrassing that this woman would even be hired by a kindergarten.
And here she is.
By the way, this is where failed J school applicants go.
Mass media studies.
Anyway, back to the phones we go here.
This is uh this is Carly in Asheville, North Carolina.
Welcome.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Rush.
It's a pleasure to talk to you.
I'm a Rush baby.
And um, I have to tell you, I'm so frustrated having a friend that graduated from the zoo.
Um, she's an African American, great girl, but when I see what she posts on Facebook all about this museum, the players, how proud she is of them standing up for what they believe in, even though she can't articulate what it is they're standing up for, and how she has to defriend people who disagreed with her because they were so anti-inclusion and anti-diversity.
And it's like I can't even voice my own opinion because it's not what she believes that I'm called, you know, a racist and non-accepting of other races, and it's so frustrating that my generation is immediately jumping on the defense if you don't believe what they believe.
Hey, wait, one thing, it's not just your generation, it's all liberals.
And I and I'm not exaggerating, and I'm not, I'm not trying to be funny or mean or caustic.
It's true.
They are the most intolerant bunch around.
It's their way or no way.
They're not interested in having a debate in the arena of ideas.
They are they don't they don't they don't think there's qualified opposition, and they don't deign to even entertain it.
Um you either fit in with their small little worldview, or you're automatically the enemy, and you have to be silenced.
And whatever it takes to silence you, if it's embarrassment, if it's uh getting you fired from your job or whatever it is, but they are the most intolerant, and it doesn't matter how old they are.
You could have an 85-year-old Jurassic Park professor at Yale, or a 12-year-old student at a at some high school or junior high school somewhere, they're all the same if they're liberal.
Yeah, and the irony is they talk about how it's so wrong that they're not about inclusion yet.
They won't include us if what we think isn't what they think.
And I I just cannot.
Well, congratulations.
I'm glad you're figuring this out.
This is progress.
This is prior, you're figuring it out, you're living it, you're seeing it.
Now learn from it and don't forget it.
And don't think it's specific to this one friend of yours or exclusive to this one friend of yours.
This is precisely why when we get back into the political sphere.
This is why I I just blanch when I hear Republican candidates, I can work with the opposition.
I am the guy who can work with them.
I can cross the aisle.
They don't want to work with us.
They want us not to even be there.
They have to be defeated, not cooperated with.
What's so hard to understand about this?
They're not trying to work with us.
The only way they work with us is if we cave on our core beliefs and sign on with them.
Other than that, there's no cooperation.
There's no working together.
There's no bipartisanship.
Partisanship is Republicans opposing Democrats.
Bipartisanship is Republicans caving on their core beliefs.
I don't want to operate into those definitions.
That's why I get so frustrated there's no pushback.
There's no effort to defeat them, no effort to stop them.
And that's what it's going to take.
Whether it's on a college campus and just standing up saying, no, you don't get what you want.
Grow up.
We have a perfectly fine institution here where you have just as fair a shot anything anybody else has on this university.
Go back and study.
You really want what you want, get educated.
That's what we're here to do, and we'll do it.
I realize you're under a bit of a penalty because all our professors are stupid liberals, but that's the best we can do.
But we're not going to shut down the university, and we're not going to shut down this or that just because you can't handle some things you don't like hearing.
Time to grow up.
But where does this come from?
I mean, this is the way these kids have been raised.
Didn't come out of the womb expecting this stuff.
They've been raised.
They have been cultured, not they've been they'd uh coddled.
Parents have wanted to be their friends.
I've seen it.
I know exactly what's going on here when in the cases where it's happened.
And then we've had the self-esteem movement combined with outcome-based education.
But the last thing, the one thing that was never going to happen, we weren't going to tolerate it.
It wasn't going to be permitted.
Our young people were not going to suffer humiliation.
If that meant shielding them from the fact that there were people who are more talented than them, screw it.
What we'll do is we'll make sure the more talented are penalized.
We'll make sure the smarter are penalized, but we're not going to humiliate our young people.
And we're going to instill in them self-esteem.
And how are we going to do that?
No matter what they do, we're going to tell them they're great.
If they think two plus two is five, it is, until they figure out it's four.
But we're not going to tell them.
They might not be able to handle the fact that they're wrong.
We're going to applaud them.
Little Johnny, you're so good.
If they cuss out an umpire at a little league, little Johnny, you're such a wonderful little boy standing up for yourself, that evil umpire.
Obviously they didn't know what he was talking about.
Right, mom, right, mom.
And I also told him something else, something that you always tell Dad to do.
Well, little Johnny, you don't want to go quite that far, but well, I did, Dad, I did, mom.
And you applauded me.
Self-esteem.
Little Johnny and Little Mary.
Perfect, little angels, so forth.
I don't know where that started.
Then you've got conflict resolution 101.
You throw all this stuff in with a multicultural curriculum you get in public school.
And what you end up with is exactly what we see here at the University of Missouri.
And at every other college campus, they've lied about rapes.
Or they have lied about this predatory male culture all over the place.
Look at all the hoaxes.
Look at all the abject lies the left is telling in order to do what?
Advance its political agenda.
That's what all this is about.
Anyhow, again, up against it here in the programming format.
Must take a brief obscene profit break back with more after this.
All right, I'm told now that uh Melissa Click, the mass media studies professor was not fired, that she resigned from the job.
Actually, a courtesy appointment.
Uh they call it.
She uh she resigned, said she got a lot of death threats.
She's uh she's keeping her real job, her paying job, whatever that is.
But she says she was getting uh a lot of death threats.
Of course she's getting death, because don't you know that's what happens.
Stand up for decency and justice, and of course, here come these rabid Republicans with death threats.
Of course that's what happens.
Another hoax, another pack of BS, And she says she's worried about the safety of her family.
Well, I would be too, if I was depending on her.
Sorry, folks.
This is how the New York Times reported her symbolic resignation.
Quote, University of Missouri professor who confronted photographer quits journalism post.
She wanted to keep the media away from the protesters.
And the media, can you imagine how confused they were?
Hey, we're your buddies in this.
You're protesting against the university.
We're trying to get rid of them too.
We're on the same side of the aisle here.
What do you mean you won't let us in?
She wouldn't let him in.
From the Columbia, Missouri and the local rag, courtesy appointment allows members of one academic unit to serve on graduate committees for students from other academic units.
Click teaches mass media in the communications department.
The School of Journalism is a separate entity.
That's right, because she couldn't get in there.
It's exactly if you go to mass communications, it means you didn't get into the J School.
Here's uh here's Jim in Mentor Ohio.
Hi, Jim, great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Thanks, Russ.
I'm a big fan.
Um I know Kasich didn't have the best debate, but I'm from Ohio.
And I, like I told Surley, the best uh thing that happened to Ohio in a long, long time.
And uh I think Ted Cruz is nothing but a show boat.
I'm very conservative, but I'm not he's not on my short list because he hasn't done anything.
You compare him to Kate the Kasich's uh record is way far better, especially as a governor versus a senator.
Yeah.
Well, okay, since you're here, you say that uh uh Governor Kasich is the best thing to happen to Ohio in many years.
Why?
What what has he done?
Well, we had uh a deficit when he came in.
Now we have like 300 some million uh insurplus.
We have plenty more jobs, and they're not Obama jobs where nobody makes any money.
He's bringing in good good jobs for skilled people.
Um he won the next election 70 to 30.
So apparently he's doing a good job.
I can't say he's been a good debate.
I'm not even saying I'm voting for him for sure, but he's on my short list.
But uh I don't think Cruz has done anything.
I think Cruz is a show boat.
He tried to play up to the conservatives, but I don't see him doing it.
Wait a minute.
What do you what's your vote?
Wait, I know what what is your gripe with Cruz?
Cruz doesn't say about Kasick, it's Trump, but that I mean Trump's out there saying, you haven't done diddly squat.
If it weren't for fracking, nobody'd have a job in your state.
Why aren't you mad at Trump?
Well, Trump, I mean, I'll give you Trump.
He I like him.
I, you know, he's you know, he's pricey and all that.
I don't think he's gonna win.
But uh Cruz gets me because he's always grandstanding, but he never delivers.
I mean, he he wants to be the darling to us, but I don't see any delivery.
And that's just my that's the way I take them.
Well, this is this is this is a to me a very interesting and fascinating case study.
But other than the bank bailout hypothetical last night, Cruz hasn't said much about Kasing at all.
But Trump has mocked him, made fun of him, ridiculed him, and you think, well, that's just Trump, he's just feisty.
And then when Cruz's name comes up, I mean, you launch.
You you probably don't think I'm conservative, but I I did like Cruz before I'm a No, no, no, I think I'm not a conservative.
I just no, it's not it doesn't matter.
Uh it doesn't matter whether I think you're conservative, or that's not that's not has nothing to do with with what I'm asking.
I'm just I'm this human nature question.
I mean, the guy that really makes fun of and laughs at the guy you like is Trump, and he gets a pass.
And Cruz barely mentions Kasich and the long knives are out for Cruz.
I mean, you're more than welcome to.
I'm not even arguing with you about it.
I'm just curious.
All right.
Well, I I listen to you all every day, Russ, and it seems like you lean towards Cruz.
So that's why I'm saying it.
Oh, well, that's gonna come as a surprise to all the people who think that I'm secretly trying to elect Trump.
Yeah.
I mean, you know there are people out there who think that too.
I just I thought Cruz, and I did look, and I'll admit I'll repeat it.
I thought Cruz had the point of the night.
And there were many good ones, but I thought Cruz had the slam dunk point of the night.
Uh and the reason I thought it's so obvious.
Um just assume everybody understands what he said, but the media was so shocked when they heard it, it made me realize they don't even look at this the way we do.
Gotta take a break.
I'll explain when we come back.
I'll tell you what we're gonna do.
We come back here and we're gonna start reviewing the debate last night via the audio soundbite route.
Because I got some doozies here.
Uh many things we've been talking about, in fact.
