	It's 800 941 Sean.
	So glad you're here.
	So much to talk about, so much to get to.
	Governor Mike Pence, the vice presidential candidate of Donald Trump, will be here today.
	Trump gave a huge economic speech.
	We have Pat Buchanan who is excoriating these Republicans as I have been.
	You know, will they set aside political personal feuds come together to win in November?
	After which they can fight over the future of the party in the country.
	Boy, it would be a great thing, wouldn't it?
	Look, but you know, it's funny because people are, well, what there's all these people that say, Well, Hannity, you're a conservative.
	You're supporting a nationalist populist.
	Obviously, I think some people just don't listen to what Donald Trump is saying.
	What I heard Donald Trump laying out today in his economic speech was dead on accurate.
	And we can talk about it.
	I mean, he used a great example.
	He talked about, you know, how we've abandoned the policy of America first.
	We've abandoned the idea that we've got to put America workers back to work.
	You want to know what this election about is about for me?
	It's very simple.
	I've looked at Trump's Supreme Court nominees, and I see originalists on the court that I think will be have fidelity to the Constitution.
	Just like Antonin Scalia, and just like Justice Thomas, the people that I admire most on the court today.
	I looked at the list, I've looked at their background, and I know the type of justices Hillary's going to put in there.
	And guess what?
	They won't have fidelity to the Constitution.
	They won't believe in separation of powers, coequal branches of government, and like Kagan and Sotomayor and others, they will be legislating from the bench.
	That is a bad thing, especially considering the court is so closely divided.
	And I would think on that one issue, that ought to motivate a lot of you conservatives that are sitting on the fence and vote for Donald Trump.
	Then I look at the other policies.
	I see, okay, Hillary can't say radical Islam.
	She just can't bring herself to do it.
	The number one enemy, evil in our time, and she is dancing on the head of a pin, and it is so frustrating, this mysterious reluctance and resistance to say the truth.
	It's kind of sad.
	Well, I want somebody that recognizes radical Islam for what it is.
	I want somebody that is going to take this fight to the enemy.
	I want somebody that's going to listen to James Comey and James Clapper and Michael Steinbeck and General John Allen and our CIA director Brennan and House Homeland Security Committee Chairman McCall about ISIS infiltrating the refugee population.
	I don't want unvetted refugees, a 550% increase, especially in light of everything that keeps happening in Europe and even here in the United States, but more particularly with Great Britain and Germany and France and Belgium, and even I have a longer list from last week of attacks that happen over the weekend.
	Okay?
	So I don't want a president that's not going to properly vet refugees.
	Big big difference in their opinions.
	I want a president that recognizes it's in our best national security interest to build a wall and secure the border for security reasons first.
	And secondly, at a time in our on our country's history when you have the worst recovery since the 1940s, the lowest home ownership rate since 19, what, in 51 years, the lowest labor participation rate since the 70s, when you have 14 million more Americans in poverty and on food stamps, when you add it all together since Obama's been president, you have a doubling of the national debt.
	At that point, I'm thinking, well, maybe Hillary appraises Obama's economic policies and Trump that went out there today and tore into democratic failure when he talked about in Detroit per capita income.
	Now, you've got to understand, Detroit was one of America's best and greatest cities.
	It's dead.
	They're talking about bulldozing entire neighborhoods and consolidating services because so many people had to leave.
	Now, of those people that stayed...
	Per capita income in Detroit is under $15,000.
	That's right, a year.
	That's half the national average.
	Forty percent of Detroit's residents live in poverty.
	Over two and a half times the national average.
	The unemployment rate is more than twice the national average.
	Half of Detroit residents don't work at all.
	One of America's great cities, yes, governed by Democrats all these years.
	Well, I want a president that's gonna bring either through trade negotiations.
	I don't think he's a protectionist, I think he's negotiating.
	Better trade deals, better balance, and you know what?
	If they're gonna put tariffs and they're gonna put uh all these all these restrictions on American products, you know, you can't sell a car in Japan, an American car.
	Why not?
	We s we certainly buy a lot of Japanese cars, and I certainly like the partnership with Honda and some of these other Japanese companies that actually build plants here to create jobs for Americans, at least they do that.
	China does none of that.
	So she's the candidate of the past, he said.
	If you want more Obama, you want a doubling of the debt, you want more people in poverty on food stamps, you want the lowest home ownership rate in 51 years, the worst recovery since the 40s, the lowest labor participation rate from the 70s, go with her.
	Because all of these cities that are failing, Baltimore, I can go through the whole list of them, all run by Democrats and all run into the ground.
	And you got a presidential candidate in Hillary Clinton who has spent her entire career, as Trump pointed out today, voting for tax increases, which will further stymie economic growth.
	I like the idea that Trump is saying, how about all these multinational corporations?
	They get to repatriate not millions, not billions, but trillions of dollars that they won't bring back into the country because of the punitive and confiscatory tax policies that this country would put on them if they dare try to bring that money back.
	Now, if you can bring trillions, if you allow those horrible rich multinational corporations, you know, like Apple and those companies, all that money they've got parked overseas, and you let them bring it back to America at a very tiny low rate, the government will get a little money out of it.
	That's a chunk of money they didn't otherwise have.
	What are they gonna do with the money?
	They're gonna park it in a bank account at 2% interest?
	No.
	They're gonna invest in research and development.
	They're gonna build manufacturing centers, they're gonna build more factories here.
	Incentivize them, give them tax breaks to build factories in Detroit.
	There's all the property you could ever want.
	It's like this is a wonderful life for crying out loud.
	But no, Hillary's not gonna do that.
	You know, she's proposing what, 1.3 trillion dollar tax increase.
	Her tax plan, guess who gets the brunt of it?
	Small businesses.
	Well, it's gonna drive small businesses when you add the massive costs of Obamacare and everything else, every every rule and regulation and that they've rammed down these people's throats.
	It makes them that they can't compete.
	You know, Hillary short circuits all the time.
	By the way, we've got to talk about Hillary and her short circuiting.
	I talked to a doctor friend of mine.
	Have you seen these video tapes of Hillary?
	Like she's she's it's like what's the right word?
	If I use the wrong word, I'm gonna get in trouble.
	She looks like she's almost convulsing.
	It is there's two separate tapes.
	I studied them at length this weekend.
	Something is wrong.
	Something, and we're gonna examine it.
	If you haven't seen the video, you gotta see this tonight.
	Did you see the one with her and the reporter?
	You know, barking and doing all this weird stuff all the time.
	I have a I have a couple of doctor friends that I sent it to.
	I said, put all politics aside.
	And both of them work with the brain.
	One is a brain surgeon.
	Oh, yeah.
	I did.
	I asked them.
	Another one is a vascular guy that understands, you know, strokes and TIAs and all the.
	I'm just there, I'm telling you, I asked them.
	I said, put all politics aside, what do you see in these videos?
	And what they saw is that somebody had some major incident, and when somebody act that part of the brain, whatever it was that was impacted, and she has had falls and whatever happened that year when she mysteriously disappeared, and her husband said, well, she's not going to be better until December, and we felt we weren't getting the truth anyway.
	And so I'm just saying, these doctors are telling me that there's something much more complicated here than the fact that she has blood clots, then the fact that she's on blood thinners, then the fact that this has happened and that they walked me through the whole thing and actually looked it all up.
	Anyway, so you know, some are calling it seizures, that they're recurrent seizures.
	I don't know.
	I'll play it for you and we'll get some medical advice tonight.
	I don't want to get too off course here.
	But she's short circuiting a lot.
	Like when she said to Chris Wallace, well, James Comey never said I was lying, and James Comey did say to Trey Gowdy, yeah.
	Anyway, then you got the picture, I guess this is about from back in February of you know people trying to help Hillary up the stairs.
	There's a series of these events.
	And Hillary's handler, apparently, according to Jim Hoft is a guy that works at um Gateway Pundit, Jim Hoff suggesting that the handlers carrying a uh diazepam pen for patients who experience recurrent seizures.
	Who's he carrying it for?
	And this was tweeted out today, and I think it may be worth looking into.
	Have they been trying to lie to us about her health condition?
	If it was Donald Trump, I guarantee you the media would be all over it.
	It's a fair question if we voting for somebody healthy.
	Anyway, but more importantly, her policies.
	She sort of short circuited again, her now famous term, and said, I'm raising taxes on the middle class.
	She sh short circuits a lot.
	No wonder why she doesn't do any press conferences.
	Because while Warren is standing up for a fairer tax code, Trump wants to cut taxes for the super rich.
	Well, we're not going there, my friends.
	I'm telling you right now, we're going to write fairer rules for the middle class, and we are going to raise taxes on the middle class.
	We're going to raise taxes on the middle class.
	Anyway, 800, 941 Shauna's our number.
	Now, anyway, Trump then went into his plan.
	He's going to reduce the current number of brackets from seven to three.
	He's going to streamline the process.
	He talked about working with House Republicans using the same brackets that they have proposed, 1225, and 33% for many workers, more like 50% of the workforce, uh, they will pay zero income taxes.
	Half the country's going to pay nothing.
	Half the country will pay nothing.
	By the way, I was glad to hear Trump today used some of the statistics I've been using.
	Lowest home ownership rate in 51 years, 12 million people added to the food stamps rolls, 7 million Americans living in poverty, seven more million.
	We have the lowest labor force participation in four decades.
	I was so glad when he said I like finally somebody's hearing me.
	Finally, 58% of African American youth are either outside the labor force or not employed.
	One in five American households don't have a single member in the labor force.
	One in six American men, 18 to 34, either in jail or out of work, living in mommy and daddy's basement.
	This is not the American dream.
	Obama's added 2,000 new regulations, a hidden tax on all of us.
	Corporations don't pay taxes.
	Raise taxes on corporations, they pass it on to we, the consumers.
	It's an anchor, as he said, dragging all of us down.
	And he says he's going to get rid of all of these overreaching executive orders.
	And so there's a difference.
	There's a difference on vetting refugees, a difference on building the wall, a difference on Supreme Court justices, a difference on keeping Obamacare, eliminating Obamacare, a difference on how to spur and get economic growth.
	A difference on whether you want to fire coal workers and put out of business coal companies or expand coal mining, expand fracking, expand drilling.
	That's why I'm supporting Trump.
	It's based on substance, it's based on issues.
	The media wants to play into Hillary's narrative that he doesn't have the temperament, and the person That's angriest really is Hillary when you listen to George Stephanopoulos and D.D. Myers, they told you, and we played it for you many, many times.
	He's talked about trade and the difference there.
	He talked about the how you know how many we can increase, he cited the Institute for Energy Research.
	If we lift restrictions on energy, we can increase the GDP by more than a hundred billion dollars annually.
	I've been saying this about energy for years.
	We have more natural gas.
	We're the Saudi Arabia.
	We're the Middle East of natural gas.
	And we're so stupid to be so dependent on foreign countries that hate our guts.
	It's ridiculous.
	We can increase revenues by almost six trillion dollars over four decades.
	That's money in our pocket that we have.
	The Saudis have been doing it.
	All these Middle Eastern countries have been living off this oil that we're buying for decades.
	And they don't give a flying rip about us, and every chance they get, they try and stick it to us as best they can, and they can buy their 767s and fly around the world, and as soon as they get out of their own air space, off come the clothes, on go the Western clothes, out come the girls, and out come the booze.
	How do I know?
	Because I've talked to flight attendants who've been on those flights.
	You know, this is unbelievable.
	So that's what the choice is.
	This is it.
	This is what this election is about.
	It's not about anything other than those issues.
	And I haven't even talked about homeland security and foreign policy and Iraq and Syria and Egypt and Libya.
	Just Iran and this idiotic Iranian deal.
	Haven't talked about that yet.
	Hey, I know it's summer, and just because you got plenty of time on your hands, well, that doesn't mean that your hands are always free.
	Now that's why I've been working on my summer listening list.

	Governor Mike Pence, the vice presidential nominee with Donald Trump is with us in the next hour, as is, he'll be with us at the top of the next hour.
	Patrick J. Buchanan is also going to be with us, and then we're going to cover news that nobody else seems to want to cover.
	They're all interested in Kazir Khan.
	And he's gotten fifty times more coverage than Pat Smith, who the media said, oh, Republicans were using for disgusting political purposes, but Mr. Kahn is a hero.
	Well, you're going to meet Laura Wilkerson today.
	She's been on the program before.
	18-year-old son Joshua, beaten, tortured to death by the son of illegal immigrants.
	You're going to meet Ken Terry, his brother Brian Terry was killed.
	He's a border patrol agent killed with weapons that Barack Obama, Eric Holder, and the administration gave to, let's see, drug cartels and kidnappers and extortion experts.
	And yeah, it was used to kill a lot of people, even showed up in one terror attack in Paris, apparently.
	And you also meet Karen Vaughn.
	Her son was a Navy SEAL.
	He died in part, she believes, because of the rules of engagement of Obama.
	Oh, and by the way, when she went to get pick up the casket of her son, the White House said, Can we come?
	And could the president come?
	He wants to meet with the families.
	He said, Yeah, but don't bring any, don't bring any cameras.
	Well, the president brought cameras.
	She'll tell you that story.
	I know that's ignored.
	I know everyone's still focused on Kazir Khan.
	Etc.
	etc.
	Now, Iran this weekend.
	Now we've all talked about how compromised security is.
	It could be the most damaging development yet, as it relates to the Hillary email scandal.
	Iran is now by the way, they also executed a gay man this weekend.
	Oh, she takes money from countries that practice sharia.
	Well, they executed a gay guy in Iran, I think on Friday.
	But anyway, Iran has executed one of their top nuclear scientists.
	Why?
	Well, one of the reasons he was outed as a U.S. spy.
	And by the way, that email was stored on Hillary's unsecured server.
	Anyway, Washington Examiner, I'll read from there.
	Hillary Clinton recklessly discussed in emails hosted on our private server, an Iranian nuclear scientist who is executed by Iran for treason.
	Tom Cotton made this public on Sunday.
	I'm not going to comment on what he may or may not have done for the U.S. government, but in the emails that were on Hillary Clinton's private server, there were conversations among her senior advisors about this gentleman.
	He said on Face the Nation.
	And Cotton was speaking about this guy, uh Sharam Amri, who gave information to the U.S. about Iran's nuclear program.
	You know, the number one state sponsor of terror Iran, the one that Obama and Hillary began negotiations to give them $150 billion, the right to spin their centrifuges, the right to build missile defense with Vladimir Putin, the right to build up their conventional arms, and the right to 25 days' notice before any inspections, and by the way, they're not going to be U.S. inspectors, and it's not any place, anytime, anywhere, like they had promised.
	Anyway, quote, the person, this person who had access to the country's secret and classified information had been linked to our hostile and number one enemy, America, the Great Staten, said a great Satan said as spokesman for the Iranian judiciary.
	He provided the enemy with vital and secret information of the country.
	His body was returned to his mother with rope marks around his neck.
	It would appear that the uh possible that the discussion on an unclassified, quite possibly hacked email system about a person who was hanged as a spy will have a chilling effect on others who may want to engage in espionage and help the United States against the number one state sponsor of terror.
	He disappeared while he was on a religious pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia in 2009.
	Then he resurfaced a year later in the U.S., where he visited the Iranian intersection of the Pakistani embassy and demanded to be sent home to Iran.
	While he told reporters that he was held against his will by both the Saudis and the Americans, U.S. officials said he was receiving millions of dollars for information he provided about Iran's nuclear program.
	The scientist shows up in Clinton's emails back in 2010, nine days before he returned to Iran.
	Quote, we have a diplomatic, psychological issue, not a legal one.
	Our friend has to be given a way out, said an email by Richard Morningstar, the former State Department special envoy for energy and read according to the Associated Press, our person won't be able to do anything anyway.
	If he has to leave, so be it.
	Cotton Sunday accused the Obama administration of working like a gun cartel, sending four hundred million dollars to Iran in what many regard as ransom payments.
	By the way, they do they have this execution now up online?
	Well, to put it up on Hannity.com.
	I'll put a warning.
	You know, I've seen all the beheadings.
	I watched the videos and the burnings and the mass beheadings and the beach beheadings and the James Foley beheading.
	I've seen it all.
	A lot of you don't want to look at it.
	No one's ever asked Obama, Hillary, have you ever watched those videos?
	Have you ever seen them?
	What is it?
	You still can't say radical Islamic terrorism after watching those things.
	By the way, Democrats apparently fear an October surprise after WikiLeaks is apparently indicating that they might be sitting on some kind of smoking gun that could derail Hillary's campaign at the eleventh hour.
	Julian Assange has promised to release more damning emails regarding the Clinton Foundation.
	I know it'd be interesting to watch.
	Hillary says, by the way, she doesn't want the police union's endorsement.
	Leader of the National Fraternal Order of Police told the Hill that the Democrat sent a signal through her staff that she wouldn't be seeking the union's endorsement.
	Really, well, they did praise Black Lives Matter, and what do we want dead cops and when do we want them now and pigs in a blanket and fry them like bacon and you know, F the police, all of that we have on tape and a plate for you.
	By the way, there is a national poll over the weekend, unlike some of the surveys released, the Reuters poll, which has it a lot closer within the margin of error.
	That's something to watch out for.
	My buddy Mark Simone tweeted out something that I saw today.
	Remember the oh, Donald Trump kicked out the crying baby.
	Well, the mother of the crying baby is now demanding the media apologize to Donald Trump for lying about him.
	And by the way, that person will be on Hannity tonight.
	Tan Eastern.
	Set you DVR on the Fox News Channel.
	You know, um, there's a lot being made over this.
	You know, I made this case about Donald Trump was on my show, and he talked about, well, you know, we've got to watch a rigged system.
	By the way, could anyone not look at Bernie Sanders and the DNC emails that had racial slurs and gay slurs and misogynistic language and a strategy to use anti-Semitic attacks in Kentucky and West Virginia to motivate voters in those states, Democratic voters in those states.
	Yeah, they were colluding with Hillary.
	You think Bernie was cheated with the superdelegates?
	I do.
	Raise your hand if you think so.
	Everybody here thinks so.
	I do.
	Donald Trump was right.
	So was Bernie Sanders.
	And Bernie Sanders isn't a Democrat anymore, is he?
	He kind of said, I think I've had enough with this.
	He's out.
	You don't want on any part of that anymore.
	Um of the polls are interesting.
	I don't know what this means or not.
	I don't know who's going to win this election.
	I can't tell you.
	But I do do look at some of these voter polling numbers.
	And for example, the presidential primary turned out for the Democrats was 27.8 million.
	The overwhelming majority of whom are now casting their ballots for Hillary.
	Now, the 12 Republican candidates who participated in the primaries turned out 30.8 million voters.
	Overwhelming majority of whom will be voting for Donald Trump.
	So Democrats turned out three million fewer voters than Republicans did.
	If you translate those numbers into percentages in a total primary electorate that's consisted of 57.6 million voters, well, 52% voted for Republican candidates.
	47% the Democratic candidates.
	Five-point advantage Republicans.
	But, you know, the media organizations conducting all these polls show that Trump is losing.
	Insist that the primary turnout is irrelevant.
	I think that would be a big mistake to make.
	I mean, this poor guy, what's his name from 538, uh, Nate Silver.
	Oh, Trump has a 25% chance to 58% chance.
	37% chance, just jumping all over the place like a bouncing ball.
	So there was my report.
	I have CBS News, and I tweeted it out.
	I was 100% accurate.
	Let me read from 2008.
	They got this show on uh CNN, unreliable liberal leftist sources.
	Somebody asked this guy, Brian Stelter, if he thinks Hillary's a liar.
	Because I keep asking him on Twitter, he won't answer.
	Not that I'm paying much attention to it.
	You know, the problem is uh somebody calls me a name or calls me out or says something about me, and I respond, and somehow Hannity's unhinged.
	Hannity's angry.
	You know, like I responded to that idiot at the Wall Street Journal, Brett Stevens last week.
	It's the best thing I ever did for the guy.
	He's got like 23,000 Twitter followers.
	I got one and a half million.
	We've got what, close to three million on Facebook now, something like that.
	I mean, I just, you know, I'm doing the best thing I could ever.
	We have 15, 14 million radio listeners, two plus million a night on TV.
	I'm helping these people.
	I want to be grateful.
	Anyway, CBS News and the date, where's the date?
	I had it here in front of me.
	Anyway, I'll read from the CBS News.
	Romney earned zero votes in some urban precincts.
	Republican presidential candidate uh Mitt Romney speaks at the podium, and he concedes the presidency during his election.
	This was written about a week after Obama's victory over Romney and last Tuesday's election was driven in part by the president's strength in urban areas, where robust support cushioned the incumbent against electoral deficits in rural America.
	And by the way, there were some districts in rural America that just voted for Romney and not for Obama.
	Okay, fair.
	But the Philly Inquirer wrote this piece that in 59 precincts in inner city Philly, the GOP nominee received not a single vote.
	According to the Cleveland Plains dealer, nine precincts in Cleveland.
	All important Cuyahoga County.
	I'm pretty sure that's Cuyahoga, right?
	Yeah.
	Hamilton is uh Cincinnati, down in that area, Dayton area.
	Anyway.
	So um, as the plain dealer point out, nine precincts in Cleveland return zero Romney votes.
	Now, Donald Trump said on my TV show that, hey, I gotta tell you something.
	Uh I think the system has a chance of being rigged.
	I was called unpatriotic by a CNN guy over saying, uh, do the math.
	Now some people are disputing the CBS report.
	Well, blame CBS or the Philly Philly Inquirer report.
	Well blame them.
	I'm just reporting what they reported.
	And I thought all you liberals loved newspapers like the Philly Inquirer, and I thought you loved news outlets like CBS.
	I didn't see the retraction.
	If there is, I'll be glad to report it.
	I don't have a problem with that.
	I'm not always right.
	But it does seem odd, mathematically a bit impossible in my little brain to figure that out.
	Fifty-nine districts.
	Pretty interesting.
	So look, we are now ninety-two days out of the election by my count.
	Couple of things today.
	You got this report that she used this home server, and Mrs. Clinton on Friday was asked by a reporter, are you mischaracterizing Director Comey's testimony?
	And that is undercutting your efforts to rebuild trust with the American people.
	And Hillary Clinton said that, well, Director Comey has said that my answers to the FBI were truthful.
	Remember, she said this on Chris Wallace's show on Fox News Sunday.
	That's really the bottom line, and I've said during the interview and on many other occasions that what I told the FBI was so truthful and consistent with what I said publicly.
	So I may have short circuited.
	And for that, I will try to clarify.
	Short circuited.
	Do we really need a president that short circuits?
	What is short circuiting mean?
	I don't know about short circuiting.
	I don't short circuit.
	You want to be the president of the United States and you got a problem with short circuiting?
	Is that what we now call lying?
	Short circuits in front of the press.
	I mean, she hasn't held a press conference in what, 244 days in your short circuiting?
	She was caught dead handed in a lie.
	I've played it so many times, I'm not going to play it again here when Trey Gowdy did she lie about this.
	Did she lie about that?
	that?
	Yeah, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.
	We're going to examine this tonight due to concerns they may affect any presidential bid.
	Claim she has a track record of fainting, a tendency to develop blood clots.
	That's all true.
	Discovered during a trip to the hospital.
	The out the book outlines the animosity between the Clintons and the Obamas.
	That's all true.
	Hillary claims she lied to Chris Wallace about her emails because she short circuited.
	Anytime I get a fact wrong, I'm just going to say I short circuit it.
	Like Hillary.
	You know, Clinton out of the hospital.
	Remember this back in 2013?
	Globetrotting, Secretary of State halted because a series of health problems was discharged from by the way, this is the New York Times.
	Discharged from a New York hospital Wednesday evening after several days of treatment for a blood clot in a vein in her head.
	Okay.
	Well, I talked to two doctors.
	They're telling me something is radically wrong when you look at all this together.
	We're going to show you video tonight that ought to scare you.
	It's almost like for a few seconds, she's stroking out, like having a seizure.
	I don't know.
	Now remember she fractured her elbow during a fall.
	She fell boarding a plane.
	Susan Sarandon even said Hillary's health issues could prevent her from getting the Democratic nomination.
	Anyway, this new book says she's dealing with the mounting health issues and uh battling bouts of insomnia worried her.
	Energy just needed to kick in most.
	She's 67 years old.
	I think we ought to be able to know if she's had if this short circuiting is related to a major health issue.
	Anyway, left wing uh website Slate called Mrs. Comments a master class and offfuscation in an awkward journey of dissembling and lawyerly quibbling.
	When you lose Slate's backing, that means you have, you know, everyone's calling you a liar.
	Anyway, so we know that everything she said is true.
	I mean, everything she said is false.
	Comey said as much.
	And the polls show that that's what people think.
	And you have this new issue about this guy that died.
	Anyway, 800-941 Sean or toll free telephone number.
	We got so much to get to.
	Mike Pence will weigh in on Donald Trump's big economic speech and all the other issues facing the campaign.
	We also have Pat Buchanan, he's been as strong as I've been in going after Republicans that are sabotaging Trump.
	I'm sick of them too.
	What the potential outcome can be if they do this.
	And uh then you're gonna meet Laura Wilkerson.
	She lost her 18 year old son, killed by and tortured by the son of an illegal immigrant.
	Karen Vaughan lost her son, a Navy SEAL, and Kent Terry lost his brother, Brian Terry, through Operation Fast and Furious, guns provided to cartels by Obama and company.
	But they hate guns in your hands.
	Detroit tops the list of most dangerous cities in terms of violent crime.
	These are silenced victims whose stories are never told by Hillary Clinton, but victims whose suffering is no less real or permanent.
	In short, the city of Detroit is the living, breathing example of my opponent's failed economic agenda.
	Every policy that has failed this city, and so many others, is a policy supported by Hillary Clinton.
	She supports the high taxes and radical regulation that forced jobs out of your community.
	And the crime policies have made you far, far less safe.
	And the immigration policies that have strained local budgets and the trade deals like NAFTA signed by her husband that have shipped your jobs to Mexico and other countries.
	And she supports the education policies that deny your students' choice, freedom, and opportunity.
	She is the candidate of the past.
	Ours is the campaign of the future.
	All right.
	It's gotten rave reviews from a lot of people, especially in the economic world that I know and that I respect.
	Here's the reality that I keep telling all of you in this audience.
	We now have a 51-year low in terms of the home ownership rate in the country.
	We have the worst, quote, recovery since the 1940s.
	We have the lowest labor participation rate since the 1970s, and all those unemployment numbers that you hear are all rigged and phony and not accurate because the real unemployment number is you have ninety-five million Americans out of the labor force and people that have given up looking for work, that can't find jobs, are no longer counted in the unemployment rate.
	We have 45, 46 million Americans in poverty.
	We have 50 million in food stamps, and we have a president that has accumulated by the time he leaves office more debt than all 43 presidents before him combined.
	And Hillary has praised this record and been a part of this record and plans to do more.
	As a matter of fact, Hillary Clinton has said she will give us a one trillion dollar tax hike, and also includes the middle class and every American, based on her own statements and her own proposals.
	And the question is are you sick and tired?
	You're going to have a payroll tax hike, a $350 billion income tax increase, you're going to have a soda tax, a national gun tax that she has supported, a carbon tax, and other taxes.
	Add to that the bad results in Benghazi, in Egypt, in Iraq, in Syria, and elsewhere around the world, and you have to ask and an unwillingness to say the words radical Islam.
	How is this even a contest?
	Joining us now, he is the vice presidential running mate of Donald Trump, Governor Mike Pence of Indiana's with us.
	Sir, welcome back.
	Hey, thank you, Sean.
	And uh it was great to be in Detroit for Donald Trump's uh speech today before the Detroit Economic Club.
	It was as inspiring a speech about economic growth as I've heard for a long time.
	You know, it's one of the things I took out of it is somebody like for example, if you do some very simple things.
	Hillary wants to put coal miners out of work and coal businesses out of business, and Donald Trump says, No, we're gonna expand coal mining, we're gonna expand drilling, we're gonna expand fracking, we'll even look at nuclear technology.
	The French get seventy-five percent of their power from from nuclear and look at new technologies.
	How many millions of high-paying jobs could be created just in that one field?
	Yeah, it's uh it's almost incalculable in in my mind what the the full range of proposals that Donald Trump laid out today will mean.
	But in the energy area, uh you can check the speech.
	He actually pulled from independent sources.
	Uh, If we just simply begin to develop the resources of this country, uh that what that will mean to growth in our economy to jobs in our economy.
	But this speech today was truly extraordinary.
	I mean all the things you've talked about for years.
	We're talking about lowering marginal tax rates on on working families, small businesses and family farms, talking about lowering the corporate tax rate.
	We're talking about repatriating you know trillions of dollars that are trapped overseas back into American companies, uh rolling back the avalanche of red tape and Obamacare it's coming out of this administration, having tougher and smarter trade deals, uh, and then developing American energy.
	I mean th this was uh uh four legs of a milking stool of a growing uh a strategy for growing the American economy and I I I have to tell you that uh I think as word of uh this speech reaches the four corners of the country people are going to see what a dramatic contrast it is with the agenda of Hillary Clinton who says more regulation,
	more taxes, uh less uh American energy and more of the kind of trade deals that are that have been costing American jobs for generations.
	You know I I looked at one point in the speech and Donald Trump pointed out just about Detroit.
	And I think Detroit, like say Baltimore, you know, the poster child of liberal run government for decades.
	Okay?
	So these are liberal policies implemented on the state and local level.
	But Detroit for example as a city has a per capita income under fifteen thousand dollars half the national average forty percent of the city's residents live in poverty over two and a half times the national average the unemployment rate is more than twice the national average and half of all Detroit residents do not work.
	Now if that doesn't motivate people to reject the policies of the last eight years and beyond in terms of local governance I don't know what will because I vote my pocketbook I vote peace and prosperity.
	Well I I think that's very well said and I and you know it the the platform of the Detroit Economic Club has been a platform that American leaders have stepped onto literally for generations to describe a vision for a growing economy.
	But I have to tell you for for Donald Trump to step onto that stage today in front of several thousand people from Michigan and and literally to point to the failed liberal policies of high taxes, high regulation that that have literally driven a once great city into the in into the depths to which uh Detroit has fallen.
	I I thought was was powerful it was eloquent you could tell everyone in the room uh responded uh not only to him pointing to the failed policies but at the end of his speech saying that we we will bring Detroit back, we'll bring Michigan back, we'll we'll bring America back.
	But it'll be putting common sense conservative policies into practice that you and I both know Sean that they work every time every time that you you lower taxes roll back red tape expand access to energy and get smarter about trade, take three steps back this this American economy will come roaring back.
	You know, after this last Iraq debacle where people like Hillary voted for the war and I supported that war.
	I thought it was the right thing to do.
	But like Vietnam, we now are allowing wars to be politicized in Washington and rather than finish the job, cities like Mosul Ramadi, to Crete and Fallujah have ended up in the hands of ISIS with the financial resources of oil so they can expand their terror network.
	Same thing in Syria.
	You know when Donald Trump said today we when we abandoned the policy of America first we started rebuilding other countries instead of our own.
	Now while I thought it was right if we're going to send American treasure, young men and women to fight, bleed and die, only to pull them out and give the land back we can't do that anymore as a country.
	We cannot treat our military this way.
	What are your thoughts on that?
	Well Sean I was with you on that I supported uh President Bush's leadership uh in Operation Iraqi freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom and and reasonable people can differ about whether we should have gone into Iraq but what where Donald Trump and I see absolutely eye to eye is that uh because of the sacrifices of the American soldier, um, Iraq was essentially stable at the end of the Bush administration.
	It was handed over to the Obama administration intact, and when when they made a decision to withdraw American troops uh precipitously without what's called a status of forces agreement, without the the kind of presence that would ensure that those hard fought gains would be secured for the people of Iraq and for our interest in the long term, that created the vacuum in which ISIS was spawned literally out of the sand and overran a third of Iraq and controls areas to this day.
	I mean, that to me that Syria, uh the rise of ISIS, uh uh and its caliphate overrunning portions of Iraq, uh, Libya are all emblematic of a of a catastrophically failed foreign policy that Hillary Clinton simply as simply is committed to continuing and and and Donald Trump by rebuilding our military,
	standing tall, bringing our allies together, confronting and destroying ISIS at its source brings a whole different, different approach to leadership in that part of the world and and in the future.
	What do you make of the polls and where they are right now?
	I mean, for example, the Reuters rolling poll, you know, last week had Donald Trump down, but now it's within the margin of error.
	Uh similarly, other polls have come out.
	Do the polls make you nervous?
	What do you say about them?
	I I gotta tell you, I mean, the only poll that matters is on election day.
	You know that, Sean.
	And I I as I traveled around the country last week and I'm headed out to Iowa today to a couple of stops.
	Donald Trump and I were together in Detroit this morning.
	I mean, I mean the Detroit Economic Club usually draws a couple of hundred people.
	Um there were several thousand people that came out for that speech today.
	The reception alone had more people that came out to say hello to us before the event than usually come to these gatherings uh all together.
	So I the rope lines that I'm seeing, even at events that that uh that uh that Karen and I are attending it are extraordinary.
	I I just have to believe the enthusiasm that we're seeing across this country is evidence of a connection that Donald Trump has made to Americans at every level.
	I mean, that speech today was an aspirational speech that simply said, look, if we if we will embrace new leadership, if we'll get back to what we know works, which is less taxes, less regulation, more American energy, and smarter trade deals, that this country can come roaring back.
	And I think I think people people are responding to that message, they're responding to that clear-eyed leadership.
	And I I just really do believe we've got a tremendous opportunity here to make America great again.
	The reason I'm supporting Donald Trump, I have a number of reasons.
	I like his Supreme Court nominees.
	I think they are d diametrically opposed to what we get from Hillary.
	I like that he has repeatedly said he will eliminate health care and replace with health care savings accounts.
	I like the economic speech he outlined today.
	He also talked about lowering taxes, eliminating regulation, waste fraud and abuse, and he also goes into the the issue of of lowering spending.
	I love the idea what energy independence can do for our national security and what it could do in terms of job creation in this country.
	I like education back to the states.
	I like his plan on vetting refugees, because I do believe that our national intelligence director clapper and FBI director and CIA director are right that ISIS will infiltrate that population.
	I agree that we need to secure the border because number one, it's it's in our best national security interest, and number two, you don't have people competing with Americans out of work and driving down wages.
	So all of that is why.
	When people ask me why do I support Donald Trump, I support the agenda.
	That is the conservative agenda.
	Why are people like Ted Cruz, John Kasich, Lindsay Graham, John McCain w what what possibly could they be thinking when you compare positions with Hillary?
	Well, look, uh, we you know, we just went through uh an extraordinary primary season.
	It was a competitive primary season, and uh, you know, it takes time to move beyond those things.
	I I respect that.
	I had a good meeting with John McCain last week.
	We talked about uh our shared vision, Donald Trump's vision for a strong America on the world stage.
	We're we're continuing to reach out to leaders in the party, and and I I think you're gonna continue to see that come together.
	The speech today is going to be the first in a series of uh addresses across this country that are going to lay out Donald Trump's vision and policies for a new administration and a new direction for America.
	And I I just really believe uh that as you're seeing enthusiasm all across this country, uh, from Republicans, independents, and many Democrats who are drawn to Donald Trump's vision, you're gonna continue to see more and more leaders uh around the country rallying around this good man who I think is gonna be a great president of the United States.
	What do you make of this damaging development in Hema uh Hillary's email server scandal where Iran executed one of their top nuclear scientists after he was outed as a U.S. spy in Hillary's unsecured email server?
	Sean, we got to get to the bottom of it.
	We've got to find out whether uh uh Mr. Americ who was uh executed this last weekend uh was uh was essentially he became public because of uh the revelations in Hillary Clinton's email.
	I don't I I know that's been alleged.
	There have been news reports to that effect.
	Senator Cotton has raised some of those issues, but uh I think it's absolutely essential that we get to the bottom of this.
	But uh uh it just it it is uh heartbreaking to think that someone who would have cooperated as reports indicated with the United States and with our interest to the security of our nation may have lost their life because of uh of uh the the recklessness and carelessness of Hillary Clinton using a private server.
	We don't know that that's the case, and it's being reported, but we absolutely have to get to the bottom of it.
	The American people have a right to know.
	They really do.
	All right, Governor, you're always generous with your time.
	We really appreciate it.
	Thank you for being with us, and I hope we'll check in with you often throughout this campaign.
	What are we, ninety-two days away from election day?
	It's coming very fast.
	Thank you, sir.
	Thanks, Sean.
	Always good to be with you.
	800-941 Sean, toll-free telephone number.
	You want to be a part of this program.
	We have a lot coming up at the bottom of the hour.
	Patrick J. Buchanan at the top of the hour, Laura Wilkerson, Karen Vaughn, who lost her Navy SEAL son in Afghanistan, Kent Terry, is the brother of Brian Terry, member from Fast and Furious.
	That's right, Obama provided the guns and uh to the cartels, so they ended up killing Americans and many other people.
	We abandoned the policy of America first.
	We started rebuilding other countries instead of our own.
	The skyscrapers went up in Beijing and many other cities around the world, while the factories and neighborhoods crumbled right here in Detroit.
	Our roads and bridges fell into disrepair, yet we found the money to resettle millions of refugees at taxpayer expense.
	All right, that was Donald Trump, his big economic speech from earlier today, and uh joining us now 25 till the top of the hour.
	800 941 Sean is on numbers, the one and only Patrick J. Buchanan in his latest article, he talks about all these Republicans that have been mysteriously reluctant and resistant in terms of supporting Donald Trump, and by the way, that includes people that made the pledge to support him, like Jeb Bush and Lindsey Graham and you can add John McCain to the list, uh Ted Cruz and John Kasich.
	All these people, and John Kasich in particular, I find what they are doing destructive and hurtful, and I've talked at length about it last week, and it made a lot of news last week.
	And Patrick J. Buchanan raises this question.
	Will they set aside political and personal feuds and come together to win in November, after which they can fight over the future of the party and the future of the country?
	Patrick J. Buchanan, welcome back.
	Good to talk with you, Sean.
	What's going on, sir?
	Well, not too much.
	I think you're you're exactly right.
	These folks uh, I believe they really should make a call here.
	It's far better, I believe, if uh if Donald Trump wins the election and the Republicans who disagree with him on trade or foreign policy or on the border, we all fight this out with the Republicans in charge in the White House, the Supreme Court, the Senate, and the House, then we fight over who was responsible for the defeat and the loss of the Senate and the loss of the presidency and the loss of the court.
	You know, to me, you know, people are asking me, well, why do you support Donald Trump?
	And I'm like, well, number one, I promised in March of 2015 when I was at CPAC interviewing Jeb and interviewing Cruz and interviewing Trump and interviewing Marco, I said, I'm gonna support who you the people decide and give as much airtime as I can.
	Because I think that was in the best service of my audience.
	And then in 2016, I did a speech, and at the speech I said the same thing.
	I said a lot of you are gonna be angry and emotional and upset if your guy doesn't win, but there's only gonna be one winner, and I pledge I'm gonna support the winner.
	Who are you gonna support?
	Everybody stood up.
	Now we see that these politicians are playing politics in a way.
	And my argument is, Pat, the Supreme Court.
	My argument is the economy.
	My argument is Obamacare.
	My arm argument is energy independence.
	My argument is building a wall.
	My argument is vetting refugees.
	My argument is sending education back to the States.
	Now, as a conservative, those are all conservative ideals and principles.
	And after the debacle of Iraq, where I wanted the war, you were against it, and you and I argued at length, but if you're gonna fight a war, don't surrender and give back the land that Americans fought blood and died for.
	Well, let me say that uh over about these Republicans.
	I think they really got to it's really time they've got to bite the bullet and be honest.
	It seems to me that the only argument you can make uh for not supporting first, I don't know how you make the case once you've pledged you're gonna support someone and then back off your pledge.
	And if you do, I think you've got to give a reason.
	The only reason I can see, because to do that is really to advance the cause of Hillary Rodham Clinton to be president of the United States and all that means.
	The only argument I could see is if somebody stands up and says the man is simply unqualified by temperament, by knowledge, information, uh by his uh erratic behavior, etc.
	etc.
	to sit there in the Oval Office and control the nuclear arsenal of the United States, and I cannot go for that.
	Therefore, I accept the fact that my opposition may help bring Hillary Clinton to the presidency.
	It seemed me, I don't see any other thing other than the fact, you know, you don't like him, his behavior, what he said about this uh, you know, the uh the uh doctor and all or Dr. Conn and all the rest, those are irrelevancies.
	It seems to me you've either got to support the candidate or give a real reason why you are not doing so.
	My question to you is this.
	Do you agree as I have argued last week that this is now open sabotage against Trump and that they're helping elect Hillary?
	I think there's no question about it, but a number of these Republicans expect Trump to lose, and some of them uh you know, hope he loses.
	I would think many of the neocons, some of them are going over to Hillary already, they've got open doors to him, they said we would never support Trump.
	And you know, this was long before a lot of these controversies.
	And yeah, I think and you read columnist who say, Well, when Trump loses, the rebuilding can begin.
	They're anticipating a loss and they're welcoming a loss.
	There's no doubt about it, some of them.
	You know, uh I don't know.
	I mean, others of them look, if you want Trump to win, why don't you help him?
	And if you don't want him to win and you want him to lose, you ought to state honestly and coldly why.
	Yeah, I I agree.
	I mean, and what are the policy disagreements?
	You know, I've interviewed him a lot, and what I see when I interview him is he stays right on policy.
	Well, he's right.
	I just what that clip you played uh a little few minutes ago.
	He's got an America first, he's exactly right, uh you know, twenty-five years of free trade have deindustrialized us.
	You take a look at Nagasaki and Hiroshima today, and you take a look at Detroit and Baltimore and what they look like in nineteen forty-five and what they look like now.
	And clearly the deindustrialization, the export of factories and jobs and technology that goes with them.
	All of these things have weakened the United States.
	Now we know how to make America great again in terms of trade.
	I mean, all our original founding fathers, Hamilton all the way up to Lincoln.
	You know, I'm uh my father's on the other side in the Civil War, but there's no doubt that from Lincoln to World War One, the United States became the greatest industrial power on earth by a policy of economic patriotism and economic nationalism up against the Brits.
	We did to the Brits what the Chinese are doing to us.
	Yeah, well, you also warn, I actually said on the air last week that if Trump loses, I'm naming names.
	I'm blaming all those people that made promises and didn't keep them.
	I'm naming all the Republicans that have done everything they can do.
	For example, Paul Ryan has been more harsh towards Donald Trump than than he's ever been towards Barack Obama and his agenda and Hillary Rodham Clinton and her agenda.
	Then absolutely more harsh.
	These guys have been more harsh towards Trump than they ever are.
	And here's another point, Pat.
	From my estimation, you want to understand the rise of Donald Trump.
	Look directly at these people that are now opposing, or at least some of them, I'll take Ted Cruz out of that category.
	He did stand and fight as it relates r relates to re repealing and replacing Obamacare, and I applaud him for that.
	But all these guys, they're the ones that said they would repeal it and replace it.
	They're the ones that said they would use the power of the purse.
	They were the ones that were afraid of their own shadow and thought they'd get blamed by Obama for shutting down the government and didn't want to suffer the political fallout of that, if they got blamed.
	They're the ones that said in twenty fourteen Patrick Buchanan that they were going to stop illegal, unconstitutional executive amnesty, and then they ended up funding it.
	So uh I think they believe that if Trump goes down or when he goes down, and if he goes down, that they will inherit the estate.
	I don't believe so.
	I think if they are seen as responsible, in the same way that Rockefeller and Romney and Scranton were seen as responsible for the size of Goldwater's defeat, I think they're dead as far as being future leaders of the party.
	As I've written several times, whatever you say about him, Richard Nixon went to that convention, stood up, introduced Goldwater, praised him, said I'm gonna work for him all over this country, went out, worked for every Republican he could think of and worked for Goldwater, and they lost by and a huge landslide.
	But a lot of conservatives who had distrusted Nixon and been suspicious of him and said, you know, and you know at this at at the picket's charge of American conservatism, that guy was standing with us, and we're gonna stand with him.
	And that is the reason Richard Nixon got won the presidency of the United States, won the nomination in sixty-eight.
	It's unbelievable.
	And you talked a lot about the history of all of this.
	You know, I do think that there is a a rising nationalist populist movement.
	Pat, I mean, how many more Americans are gonna have to lose their jobs before we realize that we've got to secure our border because every person that crosses that border is in competition with ninety-five million Americans out of the labor force, and they're driving down wages for Americans that actually can get a job, which is too limited.
	Well, that's you know, exactly right.
	Look, the most of these folks coming in, you're coming across the Rio Grande or you're coming across in the southwestern desert or something like that.
	I mean, you're not headed straight for Silicon Valley to get a job as a computer whiz.
	A lot of these p folks, they come in and they compete for working class jobs and they compete for unskilled and semi skilled labor.
	They compete against the African American and the Hispanic American folks, who some of whom don't have high school educations and or maybe only high school education.
	You got a huge labor market that it grows constantly, and that's one of the primary reasons.
	Wages do not go up.
	In real terms, wages have stopped going up really well since nineteen seventy-four, almost forty years ago, and that is coterminous with this idea where first of letting all manner of folks in here a million a year legally, and I don't know how many hundred of thousand or million legally, and also all these foreign products coming in, destroying our factories.
	I don't know what we're doing to our working people.
	It used to be the middle class folks, this country was a country for the working and middle class.
	That's who it was made for.
	A lot of folks got real rich Rockefellers in that crowd.
	But fundamentally it was for middle America.
	And that's what I hoped and I believe that Trump believes in.
	That's what I think he believes in too, and that's what he keeps appealing to.
	Sure, they're with him.
	They sense it.
	Yeah, I think they do sense it.
	I think you're right.
	All right, let me ask this question.
	If you Donald Trump, you see the controversies over this guy Conn, you to see that he he's been battling crews when I think he should be focused on Hillary and Obama only.
	Do you agree with that?
	Yeah, yeah, I do.
	I think that one of the problems is his opponents realize that that you can distract the Donald.
	I mean, if you clip him from the side, he'll turn around and come after you right into the stands off the field.
	By the way, Pat a minute.
	That's that's my back in the huddle.
	That that's more of my old hockey days, Pat, where I used to battle and fight on us when we were younger.
	Behave the same way, but you're in one of these things, you just keep marching slowly straight ahead.
	So he really needs to discipline himself.
	Like I noticed in a tweet yesterday, he mentioned the mayor of Baltimore, and I'm like, the mayor of Baltimore is not your opponent.
	And I'm not being critical.
	I'm just saying it's not he is meaningless to you.
	The mayor of Baltimore would love more than to have have a get in a good fight with Donald Trump.
	It's like in two thousand and seven and eight when I when Obama mentioned me at least and I gotta be honest here, it was crazy.
	Mentioned me at least, you know, ten, fourteen times, I was like, This is go this is manna from heaven.
	This is gold.
	You go right on, let's play that clip.
	Let's play that clip.
	Sure.
	You know, well, play the clip.
	We used it as the open for the show forever.
	That was pretty good.
	I might have to put Mr. Burgess on Fox News.
	I'll put uh I'll put I'll put Mr. Burgess up against uh Sean Hannity.
	He'll tear him up.
	But sure, that's exactly right.
	Anybody in the you've got you've been attacked by the heavyweight champion of the world, so he wants to fight with you.
	Yeah, I mean, pretty much.
	I mean, and when we play it, people would laugh, and then somebody at some point got to Obama and said, You know what?
	Hannity uses every time you you talk about him on the air, and uh all you're doing is helping this guy and and making him the person.
	Exactly.
	He brings the audience here.
	They say people about must be half the country at one point says we don't like we're not too fond of this fellow Obama, and Obama's attacking Hannity, and they said, Hey, maybe we ought to listen to this fellow Hannity.
	Yeah, I exactly.
	Nobody knew who I was, probably half of them didn't know.
	Well, you they then now they knew you.
	It was great great done.
	Yeah.
	Uh all right.
	So let me ask you this.
	Going forward, besides only going after Obama and Hillary, what else would you advise them?
	I I think that the I think the what he just the excerpt you mentioned, I think the idea of the uh of the jobs, bringing the jobs home, I think securing the border.
	Uh I think the idea of making America great, the idea of uh investment in the infrastructure, building all these things, that's what he's famous for.
	And the idea I think you ought to mean, and I I tend to disagree with some of the Republicans, but I do realize the political appeal of America being first in militarily in every category the strongest in the world, but then say we're gonna be the strongest country in the world, but like Eisenhower and Nixon and Reagan and Bush won.
	I'm gonna negotiate from strength.
	And you know, we're gonna walk we're gonna try to avoid wars, but we're gonna be way to avoid them is peace through strength.
	And and do those the the best of the past and the new issues he's got, I think is a winning hand.
	I mean, it won the Republican primaries, and initially a lot of the people in Republican primaries, I mean, even who might have been sympathetic, probably said, you know, isn't this Trump?
	The guy's, you know, he's off a TV, a reality show or something.
	But they came to believe and follow him.
	He's got good cards, if you will play them.
	I think that's very well said.
	All right, Pat Buchanan.
	Any prediction on who wins this thing?
	Uh well, you know, if it were held today, as I mentioned last week, I would you know Hillary would, but look, uh as I wrote in that column, there's still a road to victory, and lots can happen, and that uh have been happening and by the way, how about an Iranian scientist spy who gets killed because of her emails.
	Well, that's that you know, that's something that really ought to be looked at, but I would you know, uh the uh other folks ought to investigate that.
	Yeah.
	All right, Pat Patrick J. Buchanan, thank you.
	Appreciate it.
	News Roundup Information Overload when we get back.
	When we come back, by the way, August 6 marked the fifth anniversary of Aaron Vaughn's death, one of thirty American servicemen who died on board a helicopter when it was shot down in Afghanistan.
	Many on board were members of SEAL Team Six uh when it was shot down, and any anyway, it was the largest loss of military life in a single day since the war began.
	Anyway, Karen Vaughan will join us.
	Kent Terry, the brother of border patrol agent Brian Terry and Laura Wilkerson had an eighteen-year-old son beaten and tortured to death by the son of illegal immigrants.
	Oh, that's the story the media's ignoring.
	By the way, the Democratic National Committee is now openly encouraging Michelle Obama to consider running for high office.
	DNC is now feeding excited speculation that Michelle Obama will follow Hillary Clinton from the East Wing to the Senate, following on the heels of her very well received Democratic convention speech, the DNC has now printed up Obama bumper stickers and offering them to supporters of Clinton for ten bucks a person for donation.
	Shows the first lady is literally uh well, apparently maybe thinking about it.
	All right, eight hundred nine four one Sean toll free telephone number, you want to be a part of this extravaganza.
	Linda is in New York, the all new AM seven ten, W O R the Talk of New York.
	Hello.
	Hello, how are you, Linda?
	Very good, Sean.
	By the way, you're not you're much more soft spoken than all Linda from New York.
	Linda, talk to her other the underlinder, tell her how soft spoken you are.
	I don't think I should be subjected to that.
	I'm down from Albany, New York.
	I'm in the Capitol.
	Yeah, oh, okay.
	Okay, but you're not as outspoken as this, Linda, who gets mad if people walk slow in the streets and she wants to run them over.
	Okay, go ahead.
	I I I don't think so.
	I I call Sean because I'm a moderate Democrat and I'm supporting Trump.
	And the reason I'm supporting Trump is Hillary interned as president when she was Secretary of State, and I believe she failed her internship miserably with Benghazi.
	She couldn't protect our ambassador.
	How is she going to protect us?
	she lied about the email she uh...
	has not been forthright at all on any of the issues So the Democrats are saying that people supporting Hillary are low information voters.
	They're uh not college educated.
	I have a doctorate.
	I'm not a low information voter.
	I'm a woman.
	And I'm a moderate Democrat.
	Uh and um I cannot I I would be afraid if Hillary was our president.
	And secondly, I'm not I I get upset with Trump.
	I have to be honest with you.
	I think he should be twelve points ahead.
	I think he should use his business skills to run his campaign.
	And I don't know if you know this, but they've got some devastating ads out against Trump down where I am, near Albany, New York.
	I'm in Schenectady, New York.
	Uh last night they had five of them on TV.
	Mm-hmm.
	And uh that concerns me.
	Uh he needs boots on the ground.
	And my last comment is Trump is not a charismatic leader.
	Uh he is not, and he needs all the ads he can put on, and he needs all the boots on the ground, because we're gonna have this woman as president, and it's gonna be a disaster.
	And also I will add, I'm also very pro-woman's rights.
	Wow.
	You know, I I gotta be honest.
	Here's the thing.
	If you can't look at the economy, and you can't look at Benghazi, and you can't look at Iraq, and you can't look at this resistance and Syria and Egypt and all of their failures and say, wow, all the promises, all the hope and change, we have millions more in poverty on food stamps, the lowest home ownership rate in fifty years, fifty-one years, the the worst recovery since the forties.
	If you can't look at all of that, a doubling of our national debt and say, this isn't working, then I don't know what else is gonna convince you.
	And you know, I've set on this program, I'm not gonna spend a lot of time at all trying to convince people to vote for.
	But I'm I'm making a list and I'm saying this is where she stands on justices, this is where Trump stands.
	This is where she stands on immigration and the economy, this is where Trump stands.
	This is Trump's foreign policy view.
	This is hers.
	She wants coal miners out of work, Trump wants to keep them working.
	And to me, it's all about that.
	Exactly.
	Right.
	Exactly.
	And that's why I'm I'm I'm I'm supporting Trump for all the reasons you've just said.
	I am concerned he may not win because he has botched the camp his campaign.
	Yeah, listen, he said things that he shouldn't have said.
	I think he's been told by everybody now to focus on Hillary and Obama, and now it's really gonna be up to him, and there are a lot of people that would like to work again that are counting on him not to make stupid mistakes.
	I agree.
	I'm not disagreeing.
	And my last comment on this is if he doesn't win, there's gonna be a lot of people angry at him.
	Yeah, I I agree.
	But I'm also mad at the Republicans that are undermining him too.
	I mean, the you don't see Democrats undermining Hillary.
	Hillary could shoot somebody in in public view right in the head and walk away, and Democrats will defend her.
	Anyway, good call.
	I really appreciate it, Linda.
	Thank you so much for being with us.
	Uh let's say hi to Lou is in Tampa, Florida, AM 970, WFLA.
	What's up, Lou?
	How are you?
	I'm fine.
	How are you?
	I'm good, sir.
	What's happening?
	Well, I just um wanted to say that uh, you know, I um I think that yes Mr. Trump wins that the party and when I say that I'm talking about the the people in Washington, DC.
	The party's over because things will not be done as they were in the past.
	These are gonna change things, and they are petrified.
	I totally agree with you.
	Totally, completely and utterly agree with you, and I think Republican establishment.
	Look, they're just as guilty.
	I keep saying that, you know what?
	I'm gonna blame these guys in the Republican Party if Trump loses because they've undermined him.
	They sabotage them.
	That means they own Hillary's economy.
	They own her foreign policy, they own the coal miners that are out of work.
	They're gonna own every their own the Supreme Court choices she makes, they'll own open borders, they'll own a failed educational system.
	So I totally completely agree with you.
	Yeah, and and I I think that the other the other aspect of this is that and and you're right.
	That's why the Republicans are not supporting him because the party's gonna be over for them too.
	It's not just the Democrats, it's everybody in Washington.
	Yeah.
	Agreed.
	The other at the other aspect of it, and I've been saying this to my friends for years now.
	If things don't change, I think what's gonna happen, as much as I hate to say this, uh I I think there's gonna be a revolution in this country because people are fed up.
	Listen, America is a country in decline.
	I wish I didn't have to say that.
	You know, it'd be look, I don't have to care personally about who the president is.
	I really don't.
	Um and and you know what?
	I have more options because I've saved a little bit of money.
	But I'm gonna tell you something.
	I do care about where I started in life.
	I do know what it's like not to have money.
	I do know what it's like in life to struggle.
	I do what it know what it's like in life not to be able to pay my rent.
	You know, it's unbelievable.
	Anyway, eight hundred nine four one Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
	Uh let's say hi to let's say Shane is in Denver, Colorado.
	What's up, Shane?
	How are you?
	Glad you called.
	Very good, Sean.
	Thank you for taking my call.
	First time long time.
	You know, I just want to start by saying I was a you know, I I it was and I still am a huge tech through supporter.
	I mean, I was one of those never Trumper guys, you know, just because he's just so brash and you know, his his attitude, it just you know, he just didn't really kind of seem to think before he spoke.
	But you know, at the end of the day, you know, whether it's Hillary or or Donald Trump that's been elected president, the president is tied to the House and the Senate.
	I mean, they can't get anything done without a fight with without a fight with Congress.
	I mean, I mean, just look at look at Obama and his executive orders and his executive actions.
	I mean, his his damage is reversible.
	That's that's the big key thing here.
	It's reversible now, but it's not gonna be forever.
	I I and I agree.
	I completely I I completely agree.
	I mean, uh I guess my point is realistically the most powerful person, if not so much the president of the United States in this case, but it's it's it's that that sole single Supreme Court justice that they're gonna that they're gonna you know elect or that they're gonna nominate.
	I mean, if the Supreme Court leaves left, you know, goodbye first, second, fourth, fifth, tenth amendments.
	I mean, you can you can kiss those goodbye.
	The only thing people need to really think about in this election is the Supreme Court.
	Once a decision is made by the Supreme Court, it's nearly impossible to overturn.
	I mean, you know, I just you know, I heard this talk about these these undermining, you know, these Republicans that are undermining Trump, you know, these so-called Republicans who I used to respect, like Romney and Bush and so on, you know, they've shown me their real motives.
	It's not really about conservative with these guys, conservatism with these guys in my opinion, but really just power.
	You know, right now, the Supreme Court is at stake, and that scares me to death.
	If Hillary Clinton gets in, God help us all.
	You know, I'm I'm a father of of a two and a half year old and a newborn.
	And right now, the very foundation of our country is at stake.
	You know, our bill of rights.
	It's it's that Supreme Court nominee that scares me to death.
	And so that's why I'm voting for Trump.
	Hillary Clinton Clinton cannot get elected.
	So just on that one single issue alone is why I'm supporting Trump and why I'm backing Trump.
	I just want to make that point.
	Appreciate the call.
	Thank you.
	Never Trump guy, not listening to all these other people.
	Pretty smart in my view.
	Daryl in Wyoming next on the Sean Hannity show.
	What's up, Daryl?
	Hey, Sean.
	Uh, just real quick piggyback on conversation about those that are uh never the anti-Trump uh uh establishment.
	Uh one thing I believe, and I I'm I spent twenty years raising a family in Wisconsin, uh friends and family back there need not to put Ryan back in office.
	He will be a thorn in Trump's side if tr once Trump gets into office.
	He uh Ryan needs a pink slip, and he needs to go home and he needs to tear down his wall.
	I'm very disappointed in Paul Ryan.
	I had a private conversation with him.
	I won't go over all of it a ways back, and he's been on this program, although he won't come on now, but and Paul Ryan said he's gonna have a an agenda, items that Americans can support to make the country to turn the country Around and I haven't seen the agenda come forward.
	I know they've announced a few things, but I don't see them fighting.
	I see that Republicans that have been timid and weak and somewhat feckless and spineless when it comes to Obama's agenda.
	That you know, they're so in the same place with for me.
	They'd rather be critical of Trump to make themselves look good.
	The problem is is that the Republican Party has become too bureaucratic, too institutionalized, and like Democrats, they're too interested in their own power than fighting for us right now.
	And unless they're willing to go out on a limb and risk losing and shutting down the government, whatever it takes, then we're never gonna have anything that's transformative.
	It's a corrupt system.
	Period.
	End of sentence.
	Anyway.
	Absolutely.
	Thanks for the uh call.
	Appreciate it.
	We'll watch that primary very closely.
	Verlin in Chicago.
	What's up, Berlin on the answer?
	How are you, my friend?
	I'm doing okay, man.
	You're gonna be surprised me today, but man, I'm telling you, I'm on your side today, man, because uh breaking news now.
	Hang on.
	On TV, I've been watching every talk show, man.
	And I swear to God, the media is in the bag for Hillary.
	If she does something bad, but she's done many more things bad than Trump said many more things bad than Trump, they'll talk about it for one day.
	Trump says the minimum of anything, they're on it for six or seven days.
	Look, Trump's got into a little bit of a scuffle with the Cons, which the Cons was a plant, because they know he's not a humble guy, so they know he's gonna fight back if somebody says something that he disagrees with.
	Hillary literally lied to people in their face about their dead loved ones in Benghazi.
	Then when San Bernardino happened, you know what I'm saying, that uh uh she uh uh Democrats are responsible for, they try to spin it.
	When illegal aliens kill people in California, well, I guess it was a hit and run or something like that, they try to spin it.
	All of the things that Donald Trump is.
	What about Kate Steinley?
	What about all these people?
	We you know, look look at who we had on the last hour.
	Laura Wilkerson, son killed by the son of illegal immigrants, Karen Vaughn.
	You know, because of the rules of engagement and the withering down of our troops in Afghanistan.
	She lost her son.
	Ken Terry lost his brother because Obama and Democrats provided guns to gangsters and criminals and cartels.
	I mean, this is insanity.
	And yeah, you're right.
	They want to talk about Khan, and by the way, Khan's the guy that supports Sharia, which is oppression against women and gays and lesbians and Christians and Jews.
	Look, look wait, I mean see, see, this is what pisses me off right now.
	See, the blurring of the lines.
	See, when you try to Okay, listen, Trump is not talking about American Muslims.
	He's not talking about American Mexican or Mexican Americans, however you want to say it.
	He's talking about Muslims that are a threat to this country and illegal, illegal aliens that is a threat to this country.
	But they want to blur the lines like if you say something about one, you're saying something about all.
	And this is the spin that they put on to to try to humble this man.
	When Step Stephanopoulos asked him that question, what do you sacrifice?
	Of course, none of his people died or something like that in the war.
	But he's made sacrifices as a businessman.
	He lost uh town with his kids starting all these businesses.
	He he's he's lost hours, I mean 20 hours of sleep starting businesses and running businesses rough uh around the world.
	But of course the ultimate sacrifice is losing one of your lung loved ones in the war.
	But they blurred the lines to try to humble this man.
	They want to see some humility.
	Let me tell you something.
	As a black man, I don't like what Khan said.
	I don't like him talking about uh Donald Trump got a black soul.
	What what about what about in the 90s when they said Bill Clinton had a black soul?
	That was good.
	All the black people embraced him because he supposedly was the first black president.
	But now they want to say he got a black soul, and that makes him bad.
	Which which one which which one which one is it?
	You know, the people like to blur these lines and play these word games, but I'm I'm pissed off at the whole situation.
	Well, Verlin, I gotta go.
	I gotta be honest.
	This is the best call you've ever made.
	This is the first time in all the years I've known you that you've ever made sense.
	The first time ever.
	I don't know what happened to you.
	I sound like you're voting Trump.
	I am voting for Trump.
	Wow.
	Verlin has come around.
	There's hope.
	All right, thank you, Verlin.
	All right now, Shah.
	Hey, Verlin, you can call in more often now.
	You don't annoy me as like you used to.
	Okay.
	All right, thank you.
