Obama Downplaying America - 9.20

Time Text
This is an iHeart podcast.
Let not your heart be troubled.
You are listening to the Sean Hannity Radio Show Podcast.
All right, 49 days to go.
You're getting a little, you know, a little turmoil in that tummy of yours.
You're beginning to feel the final moments of this campaign.
One week from yesterday, we'll be talking, well, one week from today, we'll be talking about last night's first presidential debate.
It'll be in Hofstra and Long Island.
By the way, Hofstra's a great school, and they usually have a debate every four years.
And I know a lot of people that go there, and it's awesome for me because it's close to my house.
One of the few times in my life I don't have to travel to New York City, the greatest city in the world, and fight UN traffic because Obama is trashing America on his way out the door.
11 specific things he said, downplaying his country today, but we'll get to that later.
This is interesting to watch.
There is a real panic that has set in among Democrats around the country.
They're going to lose it in the next 49 days completely.
They're going to unload on steroids there.
Republicans, Donald Trump is racist.
He's sexist.
He's a misogynist.
He's anti-gay.
He's xenophobic, Islamophobic, homophobic.
They're just going to unload.
Meanwhile, Hillary, of course, takes money from countries that treat women, gays, lesbians, Christians, and Jews like crap, but we won't talk about that in the media.
But they're getting desperate.
You've got Hillary Clinton for president, campaign manager Robbie Mook blasting out an email alerting supporters that their estimate of the Republican presidential nominee's chances of winning the election has now come from 10%, now as high as 40%.
I guess they're just basically copying Nate Silver.
Nate Silver has not exactly been dead on accurate as it relates to Donald Trump.
And not only that, he adjusts it every day based on a new poll, just a CYA constantly so that he can say at the end, I see I predicted it.
Okay.
No, you didn't see this coming.
Anyway, so new polling.
It says in the last week or so, a new polling trend has emerged.
Trump's path to the presidency is no longer a pipe dream.
It's clear and it is real.
Trump has more and more ways he can get to 270 electoral votes, and that should give all of us pause.
Now chip in for the first time today to help us stop him and reach our goal of $2.5 million by the end of the month.
And we'll send you a free sticker to say thanks.
Oh, gee, they want money.
Shocking.
He's made serious gains in states like New Hampshire and Colorado, places where we once held a double-digit advantage.
And now he's leading polling averages in several key states like Florida and Ohio.
Again, this is Hillary's campaign manager, Robbie Mook.
He's sending this out.
A month ago, Trump had maybe a 10 or 20% chance of winning.
Today, in most models, his odds have risen at 30 to 40%.
I realize some people might have a higher tolerance for risk than others, but a 40% chance of Donald Trump in the White House should be too high for anyone.
So they're scared.
Now, with their scared, they're trying to gin up money and get people to reach into their wallets as if the Clintons don't have enough.
How about Hillary Clinton take $100 million of her own money?
She didn't have to work too hard for her money.
She gives hour speeches and get $250,000, does a quick meet and greet and grinning grab and takes a few pictures, gives a speech for 45 minutes, takes two questions, and flies on her private Gulfstream 5 on the way home.
Not exactly a hard way to make a quarter of a million dollars, is it?
Former Florida Governor Charlie Chris became a laughing stock.
Anyway, he had a debate where he proved he could unintentionally generate laughter.
Chris, who lost his GOP primary Senate attempt of Marco Rubio, then ran as an independent and lost.
And after a four-year hiatus, he became a Democrat, ran for governor against Rick Scott and lost again.
Now he's running as a Democrat against incumbent Republican Dave Jolly to represent Florida's 13th district.
I'm proud of Hillary.
I think she's been a very good Secretary of State, very good senator from the state of New York.
The thing I like most about her is I believe she is steady.
I believe she's strong, and I believe she's honest.
Everybody laughs.
You're voting for your party's nominees, Governor?
I am.
I am proud of Hillary Clinton.
I think she's been a very good Secretary of State, a very good Senator from the state of New York.
The thing I like most about her is I believe that she is steady.
I believe that she is strong.
I believe that she is honest.
And I look forward to voting for her.
They all laughed.
I mean, it's that big a punchline at this point.
The great piece by Charlie Sperling today in Breitbart: Hillary's low-energy Hillary presidential election is downright depressing.
She canceled another fundraiser today.
Something is going on.
She has no stamina, makes few appearances, and she seems there's something going on with this health issue.
I don't know.
We also need strong, principled leaders who can win votes, write laws, allocate resources, and do the slow, hard business of governing.
Now, of course, politics can be discouraging.
This election in particular can be downright depressing sometimes.
But it matters.
It really does.
It matters for our families, our communities, and our country and the world.
I mean, she's making Jeb Bush look like the energizer bunny.
Now, she's promising to come out swinging when she debates Donald Trump six days from now.
She says she's not going to take any insults lying down, which begs the question: what about her insults?
Let's see.
She's talked about Trump supporters as being the basket of deplorables and all the ads that Trump's a Klansman and a racist and a bigot and a homophobe and Islamophobe and they're irredeemable and basket of deplorables and all this crap.
Now, if Trump responds in kind, is she going to pull the damsel in distress routine like she did with poor Rick Lazio?
He made the big mistake.
He actually walked over to hand her a piece of paper in a debate, and you would think that he assaulted her the way the media in New York covered that at the time, and the media around the country covered that at the time.
By the way, the American thinker had a piece out today.
She was helped up the stairs again.
There's an image of her.
She had to be helped up the stairs at an event yesterday.
Anyway, Getty Images, photographer Justin Sullivan, you know, it shows that she's being helped up the stairs at Temple University in Philly, where she's making a speech, supposedly making a pitch to millennials.
And the image, she has to be helped up the stairs.
What is up with this?
I don't need help up the stairs.
Donald Trump certainly doesn't need help up the stairs.
What's going on here?
Anyway, an interesting poll came out, new polls showing, and I'm getting on a plane, you know, taking my bags back to Cleveland, and I'm going to Cleveland and Pastor Scott's church.
And we're going to have a town hall with members of the predominantly black community, but anybody, I think, is invited.
I don't think it's exclusive, but Donald Trump continues his outreach to the black community, and apparently with some very, I guess, encouraging results up to now.
Donald Trump is gaining massive support among black Americans.
Their enthusiasm for Hillary is eroding.
Tracking poll released Saturday, Trump saw a 16.5% increase in backing from black American voters in the LA Times, University of Southern California tracking poll.
Get this, it was up from 3.1% on September 10th to 19.6% this Friday.
So Donald Trump keeps going to black churches in Milwaukee and Detroit and elsewhere, and we're doing this town hall tomorrow.
It's obviously paying dividends for him.
And he's saying, I want your vote.
And there is a 58% increase under Obama, black Americans on food stamps, and a 20% increase black Americans out of the labor force.
Obama now is obviously paying attention to these polls himself.
And, you know, he delivered an impassioned plea to black Americans on Saturday night to stop Trump saying he'd consider it a personal insult to his legacy if black voters didn't turn out for Hillary.
If I hear anybody saying their vote does not matter, then it doesn't matter who we elect.
Read up on your history.
It matters.
We've got to get people to vote.
In fact, if you want to give Michelle and me a good send-off, and that was a beautiful video, but don't just watch us walk off into the sunset now.
Get people registered to vote.
If you care about our legacy, realize everything we stand for is at stake.
All the progress we've made is at stake in this election.
My name may not be on the ballot, but our progress is on the ballot.
Tolerance is on the ballot.
Democracy is on the ballot.
Justice is on the ballot.
Good schools are on the ballot.
Ending mass incarceration, that's on the ballot right now.
And there is one candidate who will advance those things.
And there is another candidate whose defining principle, the central theme of his candidacy, is opposition to all that we've done.
There's no such thing as a vote that doesn't matter.
It all matters.
And after we have achieved historic turnout in 2008 and 2012, especially in the African-American community, I will consider it a personal insult, an insult to my legacy if this community lets down its guard and fails to activate itself in this election.
You want to give me a good send-off?
Go vote!
You see what's happening here?
Direct appeal.
Okay.
Let's see how good has Obama's policies been for black Americans.
Way do you see Tomorrow Night Show?
Because I'm going to lay it out for the whole country to see.
Obama's failure for every American, every black American, every Hispanic American, every American has failed because of his failed, flawed ideology, his rigid ideology, radical ideology, and his failed policies.
As I predicted, and I tried to warn America, now in 49 days, I'm warning you, you will get the America you deserve, live or die, because this is it.
This is what's at stake.
By the way, the Democratic media keeps telling us Trump can't win unless he does better with Hispanics than Mitt Romney did.
Well, according to The Hill, Donald Trump seems to be faring fairly well among Hispanics, better than Mitt Romney did in some places.
He's actually outperforming Romney.
In Nevada, for example, Obama ran up a 47-point margin of victory among Hispanic voters in 2012.
Romney 71 to 24%.
Recent Maris poll in the state for NBC News, Wall Street Journal.
Well, that actually had Clinton leading, but Donald Trump had 35 points.
I'm sorry, 30 points among Hispanic voters, more than the 24% of Romney.
Well, that's happening.
Has anyone paid attention?
Not only did Mitt Romney get more votes than any Republican in the primary before, but he's also now, he's setting a serious fundraising effort that has resulted in Trump's campaign, small cash.
Donald Trump has unleashed a deluge of small dollar donations for the GOP.
And it turns out that he has set a GOP record for small donors.
He's approaching and possibly already surpassed $100 million from donors who have given less than $200 and a threshold no previous Republican has ever achieved in a single campaign.
And Trump has done so in less than three months after signing in his first email solicitation for donors on June 21st.
Nobody has raised money like that.
Well, that shows enthusiasm.
By the way, you want to talk about America, live or die?
There are 11 states.
Where did you get this piece of information you passed on to me?
Do you remember by any chance on Twitter?
Is this true?
You think it's accurate?
11 states.
Why don't we check on it before I go out on a limb here and get in trouble, as I always do?
Obama targeted the New York area for Syrian refugee resettlement.
That's something I want to get into next year.
But I'll tell you, this, you know, you look at the polls, and this is what we've got.
The Reuters poll shows a huge electoral shift to Donald Trump.
Right now, according to their analysis, in terms of electoral college votes, they have Hillary at 243 and Trump at 242.
Virtually tied.
That's what matters.
It's now about the states.
It's, you know, real clear politics average.
It's dead even.
Voters on both sides now, according to the L.A. Times, increasingly see a Trump win as a possibility, and that may get more people to vote.
I think all of that is true.
I think if you look at these numbers, they're pretty dramatic.
General election, Trump plus five.
L.A. Times, tied in Florida in the latest poll, Trump up in Georgia.
I mean, all these states are now in play, and it's up to you.
And I'll tell you who's going to decide it.
You live in Florida, you'll decide this election.
Ohio, you'll decide the election.
North Carolina, you'll decide the election.
Virginia, Georgia, you'll decide the election.
You want to decide the election?
You live in New Hampshire, Iowa, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan.
And we got on the West Coast, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado.
You'll decide the election.
Kansas.
That'll decide the election.
I think they'll go Republican.
Anyway, 800-941, Sean, if you want to be a part of this extravaganza.
Also, we have a lot coming up today.
We've learned a lot about the New York bomber, his radicalization.
America's now suffered a terror attack every year under Obama.
We'll revisit all these recent attacks.
What happened, by the way, to the Chelsea bombers' accomplices that were spotted on surveillance?
Is anybody talking about that but us?
Anyone paying attention to that?
And the FBI learned two years ago that the Chelsea bombers' father ID'd him as a terrorist.
And terrorist propaganda film star film stars Bill Clinton as an ISIS recruiter-in-chief, the very thing Hillary accused Donald Trump of.
Program, right?
He came in apologizing for America, and he leaves apologizing for America.
By the way, this is the worst week.
Is it a week or two weeks this whole UN fiasco goes on in the city?
About a week and a half?
And did it start last week or it started this week?
I guess to the end of last week?
All right, and it ends like Monday or Tuesday of next week.
Ugh, I mean, you can't walk, you can't drive five feet.
It's horrible.
I had to leave because I was interviewed by the New York Times Sunday magazine today.
Now, the last time I was interviewed by Jim Rutenberg, I wasted an hour of my time because he didn't print anything pretty much I said.
I'm like, why am I wasting time if you're not going to quote what I'm saying to you?
Anyway, this guy swore that he would actually quote me, but I don't hold my breath when being interviewed by anybody, never mind the New York Times.
Anyway, so it's a bad time to get around New York.
I had to leave at 10 o'clock to get in for a 12:30 interview.
And he wanted to do it in person for some reason.
Why can't we do it on the phone?
This way, I killed two birds with one stone.
Driving, of course, legally, if you have a headset.
And, of course, I had to put the caveat in there: you know, if you can't drive if you don't have a headset on or Bluetooth, but with the Escalade, you can actually put it right in your phone, your phone right inside your car, and it's all hooked up, including emails coming through now.
It's amazing technology.
Anyway, so Obama came in apologizing for America, leaves talking down the country that he loves so dearly.
And for the first time in her adult life, maybe now for the second, I bet she's proud of our country.
Yes, in America, there is too much money in politics, too much entrenched partisanship, too little participation by citizens, in part because of a patchwork of laws that makes it harder to vote.
Now, while we've made our share of mistakes over these last 25 years, and I've acknowledged some, we have strived, sometimes at great sacrifice, to align better our actions with our ideas.
And we can only realize the promise of this institution's founding: to replace the ravages of war with cooperation if powerful nations like my own accept constraints.
Sometimes I'm criticized in my own country for professing a belief in international norms.
I've noticed as president that at times both America's adversaries and some of our allies believe that all problems were either caused by Washington or could be solved by Washington.
And perhaps too many in Washington believe that as well.
So, just as I've pursued these measures here at home, so has the United States worked with many nations to curb the excesses of capitalism.
Not to punish wealth, but to prevent repeated crises that can destroy it.
A society that asks less of oligarchs than ordinary citizens will rot from within.
In advanced economies like my own, unions have been undermined, and many manufacturing jobs have disappeared.
Surely we can rally our nations to solidarity while recognizing equal treatment for all communities, whether it's a religious minority in Myanmar or an ethnic minority in Burundi or a racial minority right here in the United States.
For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback.
Let me tell you something.
For the first time in my adult lifetime, I'm really proud of my country.
Yeah, the first time.
I bet she's proud today because let's see, he talked down his own country 11 times before the UN.
Isn't that nice?
Very odd that Hillary Clinton, only 49 days before we make a decision, live or die.
That's basically it.
America lives or America dies.
And we're either going to fix the economy, we're going to put leftist radicals on the Supreme Court, or we're going to put originalists on the Supreme Court.
We're either going to cut taxes, incentivize corporations, become energy independent, or coal miners are out of work, coal companies are out of business.
Keep Obamacare, get rid of Obamacare.
Immigration, build the wall, not build the wall.
Vet refugees, don't vet refugees.
Say radical Islam or just kiss the ass of radical extremists because that's basically the choice.
Education back to the states or top-down Common Core NEA-supported, you know, failure, mediocrity at best.
That's what the election, 49 days, you live or die.
America lives and moves forward and makes adjustments and changes, or we continue the same flawed, failed policies that have led to a precipitous decline.
I know this is big news.
Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt.
I know I'm shocked.
I just can't believe it.
I'm in a state of shock.
And meanwhile, we got an election in 49 days.
An election that will impact your kids and grandkids for generations.
Because it's that profound.
The differences are that deep and that profound.
You know, you got this New York bomber pictured in Pakistan.
You notice that we find out so much more about these bombers seconds after they commit their atrocities.
And then it's like, oh, all this information was out there.
We just didn't find it.
But he was on a radicalization trip as his brother and sister, you know, posted jihadi messages online in Pakistan with his brother.
You know, they were out there cooking.
Goes to Afghanistan.
That trip was one of a series of lengthy visits he made.
Now, we do know that he spent time in a hotbed, this particular area of Afghanistan, which is a hotbed of fundamentalism.
His brother and sister both posting what appeared to be pro-jihadi material.
His sister saying no to democracy.
The married sister lives there posting from a pro-ISIS website showing the destruction of New York.
Maybe, why don't we find these things before these guys attack?
Just an idea.
You look at the pictures.
You know, you got a picture of this guy with his brother.
And, you know, I'm like, okay, why didn't we see this before?
All pictures of radicalization.
It didn't take long to figure out that this guy hates gays, gays in the military.
He hates American culture.
His girlfriend told Fox News that he was different when he came back from Afghanistan.
We know that Rahami, the father of her child, said, you know, how are there no, there aren't homosexuals in Afghanistan?
Why do I doubt that's true?
One time he was watching TV with my daughter and a woman in a military uniform came on and he told her there's a bad person.
So they find out all of these things, but they find it out too late.
His father sued the city of Elizabeth, New Jersey for alleged anti-Muslim bias after his neighbors complained that the family's fried chicken joint stayed open too late.
Oh, discrimination.
Anyway, the suspect was found asleep.
Thankfully, they got this guy.
But of course, none of this is connected, even though they all use flip phones.
By the way, when's the last time any of you have seen a flip phone?
I haven't seen a flip phone in a decade.
Just haven't.
Before by iPhone, different incarnations, and yes, I'll get the new i7, but I always had blackberries.
Before the blackberry, I had a flip phone.
I had a flip phone when I was in Atlanta in 1993 for crying out loud.
Anyway, we have now had a terror attack.
Obama, America, every year Obama's been president, every single year, and yet he continues his phony narrative that the JV team is contained.
You know, just in the last week, a 16-year police officer sliced with a meat cleaver, 70 stitches.
St. Cloud, Minnesota, Somali member of ISIS, stabbing nine people, screaming Allahu Akbar.
Seaside, New Jersey, Marine Vets Run, the Semper 5 run, pipe bombs found along that route.
Nobody was hurt there.
By the way, flip phone detonator.
But of course, Comrade Bozo de Blasio, well, we know it was intentional.
We can't say it's terrorism.
And of course, Chelsea in New York, pipe bombs found both at 23rd and 27th Streets between 6th and 7th Avenue.
29 people injured there.
In Elizabeth, New Jersey, pipe bombs found at a railway station.
One of the bombs exploded, and then this guy was arrested with pipe bombs that he's throwing.
You know what?
What bothers me, and nobody seems to be paying attention to this, it was on WPIX on Sunday night, but does it seem the media might be a little too anxious to just blame all four New York, New Jersey bombings on one man, the one guy that's been caught here, Ahmad Khan Rahami?
Now, if Rahami carried out every one of those attacks, Seaside Heights on Saturday morning, then 23rd Street in New York at 8 p.m. in Chelsea, followed by the discovery of the bomb on 27th Street three hours later, and then the Elizabeth train station discovered on Sunday night.
This guy was a pretty busy guy.
Now, they've searched 8,000 cameras in New York.
8,000.
All been put up there since 9-11.
There's hardly a place you can go in New York now where you're not being videotaped.
Anyway, so if Rahami acted alone all by his little lonesome, it would mean that we didn't have an active terrorist cell consisting of several members carrying out coordinated attacks on the homeland.
If this was all Rahami's doing, that would make Saturday and Sunday, the bombing spree, seem a little bit more like San Bernardino or Orlando carried out by a single unhinged radical Islamist sympathizer instead of coordinated conspiracy that was primed to carry out several attacks that could have killed hundreds of Americans.
Now, if it wasn't all Rahami and his doing, if he didn't act alone, well, I think that would mean we have several co-conspirators to this multi-target terrorist bombing who are still running around out on the loose.
Now, that would mean that we still have an activist terror cell operating in the New York, New Jersey metropolitan area.
That would mean that we have unknown members of numbers of jihadis that would know how to build bombs, learn from the mistakes I assume that they made this weekend.
And if it was a coordinated attack that included several terrorists, that would mean that America has now entered a level of vulnerability we haven't experienced since the morning of 9-11, 2001, 15 years ago.
And that would mean our political leaders have been asleep at the wheel since these domestic terrorist attacks began hitting the homeland starting coincidentally about eight years ago.
What happened eight years ago?
Eight years ago.
What was I doing?
Oh, that's right.
I was warning America about Obama and about what a radical he is and about what an extremist he is and how ill-prepared he was for the job of being president.
And I was being excoriated for being mean to Obama and the danger that he posed to the country and how his plans would fail America.
And then I was told that I might be ruining my career.
And then I was doing the good work of discovering who Frank Marshall Davis, his communist mentor, was and what Acorn was all about and what an Alinskyite disciple would think and how they would feel about things and also look deeply into the black liberation theology that so motivated him to join the church of GD America and allowed him to become friends with unrepentant domestic terrorists like Arizon Dorn.
I warned you.
By the way, and I'm warning you now: 49 days, live or die.
America lives.
America continues its decline.
It's death spiral, if you will.
So, anyway, that's what I was doing eight years ago.
Oh, that's right, Obama was elected.
Oh, that's where I left off.
That would mean that all the political correctness, the reluctance, resistance to calling a bombing a bombing, the refusal to label an obvious terrorist attack a terror attack, the attempts to purge phrases like radical Islam or Islamic radicalism or jihad from even the FBI investigative files, it would mean the left's politically correct, straight-jacketed approach has had a devastating effect on our national security.
So, here we are again in another election year, and if it turns out to be a coordinated terrorist attack, that would be very bad news for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
So, I'm wondering, is maybe that the reason we haven't heard more about the two apparent accomplices who may have helped Rahami place the bomb, who apparently were caught in the act on the surveillance video?
That's right, it looks like there were others involved in the attack.
But as far as the press is concerned, mum's the word.
This is a, we finished, we got the guy.
Well, WPIX, a news station in New York, reports that law enforcement officials have obtained surveillance videos that show a man near the site of a Saturday evening explosion in New York in the location where the pressure cooker bomb was found four blocks away.
Multiple local federal law enforcement sources say.
Oh.
Anyway, surveillance shows the same man on 27th Street after a video first showed him dragging what was described as a duffel bag with wheels on 23rd Street where the first bomb went off about 40 minutes before the explosion.
Same guy was found 10 minutes later on 27th Street with a duffel bag.
That's the pressure cooker bomb.
After the man leaves, the video shows two men removing from the duffel bag a white garbage bag believed to contain the pressure cooker, according to senior law enforcement officials and others familiar with the video.
The men then walked away with the duffel bag.
What happened to those two guys?
You know, where's the FBI sketches of these two people?
Where's the smartphone alerts about the Chelsea bombers' accomplices?
I'm just wondering.
Inquiring minds would like to know.
By the way, the FBI learned two years ago that the Chelsea bomber's father ID'd him as a terrorist.
And by the way, Hillary says that, well, Donald Trump is aiding and abetting ISIS with propaganda.
Well, actually, there's a propaganda film that stars Bill Clinton as an ISIS recruiter-in-chief.
Let's not talk about that.
Anyway, 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of this extravaganza.
Anyway, it was thrown out with Phil Haney's database.
Yeah, that's true.
Phil Haney said the database, they made him throw it out, all the research they'd done at the Department of Homeland Security.
Yeah, we got rid of that when Obama purged that information about radical Islamists.
Forgot all about that.
That fits him perfectly.
We are living in a volatile political environment.
You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables.
It's sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, you name it.
And unfortunately, there are people like that.
And he has lifted them up.
He has given voice to their websites.
It used to only have 11,000 people.
Now have 11 million.
He tweets and retweets.
They're offensive, hateful, mean-spirited rhetoric.
Now some of those folks, they are irredeemable, but thankfully they are not American.
We must defeat radical Islamic terrorism.
Yet the President of the United States or my opponent and both won't even say the words radical Islamic terror.
In fact, Hillary Clinton talks tougher about my supporters than she does about Islamic terrorists, right?
She calls the patriotic Americans who support our campaign, many of them cops and soldiers, deplorable and irredeemable.
And she means it.
Millions and millions of people.
Has she ever talked that way about radical Islam?
No.
Or about those who oppose and murder women and gays overseas?
Has Hillary Clinton ever called people who support these practices deplorable and irredeemable?
No.
In many countries overseas, non-believers face the death penalty.
Where is Hillary's condemnation there?
There is no condemnation.
Let's ask Hillary Clinton, how many people who subscribe to radical Islamic views and support the oppression of non-believers would you call deplorable or irredeemable?
Or are those words reserved only for hardworking Americans that truly love our country and they want to make a statement?
To hear the words Hillary Clinton users, one could be forgiven for getting the impression that she thinks these hardworking Americans are somehow a greater threat to our country than Islamic extremists.
Wow, powerful statement by Donald Trump against Hillary Clinton.
Basket of deplorables, irredeemable, you know, sexist, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic.
Anyway, that very point was made in a column by our friend Ann Coulter.
Could Hillary Clinton tell us what percentage of Muslims are deplorable in light of what has happened now in New York and New Jersey and Minnesota?
Yeah, it does seem like she's extremely critical of Americans and the half of the country that dares to disagree with her, but she can't even say radical Islam.
Ann Coulter, author of the brand new book, In Trump We Trust, E. Ploribus Awesome, Ann Coulter's Institute.
You crack me up.
You know, just looking at you cracks me up.
You're like my adopted sister.
How are you?
Fantastic.
I could not be happier.
By the way, you know.
This is a great point of Trump's.
And I think it's worth pointing out that this is not only true with the Democrats, but it's infected.
Somehow the Democrats have buffaloed every Republican until Trump into taking the same approach toward traditional Americans.
And by which I mean the people who populated America from 1640 to 1970, about 90% white, 10% black.
The Democrats have just decided, okay, white America, you're a declining demographic.
We're going to treat immigrant grievance groups as if they're nayral and give you everything you want.
I think not only Democrats, but an awful lot of Republicans until Trump would have been perfectly happy to attack traditional Americans.
But oh, no, no, no, no, no.
We can make no generalizations about any ethnic grievance group.
Despite the fact, as I point out in chapter one of my book, this is the society, this is the culture, this is the country that works the best, that is the most successful.
I mean, apart from subjective reasons of people just loving their own home, this is the society that works the best, and we're supposed to give it away.
The political correctness has infected the culture so that people feel like anyone we replace an American with makes this a better country when it's exactly the opposite of the truth.
You know, you said this in Adios America.
It's now really, you know, look at the debate.
There's three major issues.
I keep saying this is a huge choice election.
The Supreme Court economic elections.
It's only America if it's not Trump.
Energy, Obama, there's such profound differences, and it drives me insane that you still have a group of so-called conservatives, Republicans.
They're utterly, utterly irrelevant.
Yeah, no, you can't.
I think it's charming that you keep swatting the mosquitoes around us.
I think Trump is doing quite well.
I know you don't like to hate watch TV the way I do.
There was a period where I haven't even been able to watch my favorite hate-watching network, MSNBC, because it's just a daily slander.
It's not even fun.
It's not even interesting.
But I got to tell you, in the last week, all the prime time hosts, the octaves of their voices are getting about eight higher.
They are hysterical.
They are panicking.
Did you hear what that guy, Chris Hayes, said?
He said, well, thank God they used explosives and didn't have guns.
I'm like, oh, okay.
Did anyone hear the Murray Federal building over there at MSNBC?
I mean, they have thrown everything they can at Trump from day one.
We have known everything.
Now we have Hillary rerunning the thing about, which I write about in my book, The Alleged Attack on John McCain, which you and I talked about on TV incidentally, and I explained it at the time.
By the way, now that Hillary is running an ad claiming that Donald Trump and this, oh, this horrible, this horrible joke about I prefer soldiers who aren't, aren't we supposed to capture the other guy, not be captured?
Al Franken, who supports Hillary Clinton, was at a photographer's dinner, which he writes about in his book, Lying Liars.
It's posted on my webpage.
He told the exact same joke at this big White House dinner.
And according to him, big laughs.
He said, I don't know, aren't we supposed to prefer the ones who get, aren't you supposed to capture the other guy and not be captured?
Big laughs.
And he wasn't being provoked.
I mean, as I describe in my book, and I said to you on TV at the time, Trump was angry and he deserved to be angry.
McCain had just called 15,000 Arizonans who showed out, turned out to see Trump's very first rally after the Mexican rapist speech.
15,000 Americans and Trump and John McCain called them crazies.
Crazies.
That's what Trump was responding to.
Once again, long-suffering Americans who have never gotten a hearing on immigration, once again, they would be marginalized and dismissed as, quote, crazies.
Did you see Obama spoke to the UN today and talked down America 11 times?
America, there's too much money in politics, too much entrenched partisanship, too few Americans civically engaged.
A patchwork of laws in America set out to make it hard for Americans to vote.
Considering our founding ideals, America's made our share of mistakes over the last 25 years.
The only way the world will become more secure is for powerful nations like America to accept constraints.
And it goes, I just can't even read it.
But this is exactly what I was talking about at the beginning.
It's not political.
I love that Trump is going after political correctness.
Mainly it's his issue is immigration trade and no more endless pointless wars.
But the political correctness is more than just Donald Trump saying schlanged.
It is the way, and this kind of political correctness wasn't around with Reagan.
It arose sometime since then.
You not only have the little Nazi block watchers, but that it's infected our entire dialogue so that it is the official position of the Democratic Party that America is better the more Americans we replace with foreigners.
And as I point out in the book, it's exactly the opposite of the truth.
This country was founded by the most honest people on the face of the earth.
I mean, sure, we have some fabulous immigrants and we can assimilate the ones who come from different cultures.
But this is the culture that works the best.
And it is part of our political correctness and our multiculturalism, this civic religion that America is a horrible bad country.
I mean, look even at Republicans like Nikki Haley rushing in to take down Confederate soldiers, to take down the that's not only part of our history, but wow, talk to Pat Gaddell about the history of the Civil War and the Confederates.
It was an amazing, I'll just say very quickly about this.
I don't want to get too sidetracked, but it was an amazing way to end a civil war that no other country had ever done.
First of all, 600,000 white men died for the principle that all men are created equal.
And then instead of having endless wars like in the Balkans, where you're still fighting one another for centuries, they shook hands.
The deal was the South lost, but the North will respect their valor.
And it's generally Southerners that have formed the backbone of our military that crushed the Nazi war machine for, and again, second generation immigrant Nikki Haley to come in and a Republican and strip Americans of their history and their heritage.
This is the political correctness that Trump is going against so much more than just forcing reporters to let him say anchor vase.
You said from the very beginning you thought it was near 100% he'd get the nomination.
Okay, got the nomination.
And you've always been around, well, 60% chance he wins the general election.
Yes.
Now, with the shift, which has been dramatic now in the last two weeks and polls where he's even up by seven in what, the LA Times poll, and he's got 19% in the pew poll, I believe, with black Americans.
Yes.
Donald Trump is up in Ohio by five and three, respectively, and up in Florida by a number of points and winning in North Carolina and up by eight or nine in Iowa now and up by two in Colorado and up by two in Nevada.
Looks like Ann Coulter is, we now see an electoral path for him to win.
Well, I did back in March.
I wrote a column on it.
And there are a lot of paths to victory for him, contrary to what you hear in the media.
I did an analysis assuming that he was going to lose Florida, which I don't think is even true.
But what I looked at were there were 10 states.
Mitt Romney, who was beleaguered by that poor, sad Stuart Stevens, the man who knows less about winning an election than any mammal on North America.
That was his campaign consultant.
And he always brags about how Mitt Romney got more of the white vote than even Ronald Reagan did.
Well, yeah, but you still had a lot of Southerners voting Democrat in 1980.
Point two, John Anderson ran in 1980.
In any event, we run, and third and most importantly, we have this thing called the Electoral College.
So the overall white vote doesn't matter.
Mitt Romney won something like 84% of the white vote in Alabama, 80% in Mississippi.
He actually lost the white vote in five states and came in far below his national average in five other states.
So if you just take the 10 states where Romney didn't either lost the white vote to Obama or got less than his national average, if Trump takes five of those states and just I think he's going to get, and I've said from the beginning, I have many, many bar bets on Trump winning more of the black vote than any Republican since Nixon.
But put the, and Hispanic vote, let's put that aside.
If he only increases the white vote, oh, three, four percent in any five of 10 states, he wins.
And that's excluding New Mexico, Nevada, and Florida.
It's amazing.
Now, one of the things I'm finding very humorous is either the Never Trumpers or the pro-Hillary crowd, they're all freaking out.
Oh, yeah.
The media is losing it.
They're going mad.
They're going mad because with each day in each poll, it becomes more of a possibility.
And there's even poll numbers out today that confirm this, that Donald Trump is going to be the 45th president of the United States.
That scares the living crap out of me.
That's hilarious.
But not only that, look at the three things they have been the most hysterical about.
I mean, it is following the pattern I expected it to.
Whenever people see Donald Trump himself, his poll numbers go up.
When they're listening to the media call him Hitler, David Duke, KKK, his numbers go down.
You must be listening to the Glenn Beck show.
Every media outlet, it's insane.
They've thrown everything they can.
They have nothing left.
They don't have any quivers that they have left sheath that they can pull out at the last minute with the story.
There's always the Nazi analogies.
There was one used by one of his co-hosts against me recently.
That's why I mentioned that.
Oh, I see.
No, yeah, if you haven't been called Hitler, you're not cool these days.
Anyway, the three things they've gone mental over the most just in the last, roughly the last week.
Number one, they're hysterically attacking that massive force of nature, the alpha male Matt Lauer.
So there's the Matt Lauer attack.
That is hilarious.
I mean, the idea that he was rougher on Hillary than Trump is insane, but people got to see them both in person.
Number two, the Jimmy Fallon thing.
They're hysterical at Jimmy Fallon.
Why?
Because.
He had fun with Trump.
And the third one is Trump tricked them into covering that entire beautiful veteran speech.
Wasn't that a, that was a stroke of genius.
He does it all the time.
He did it with the fake softening on the immigration speech.
But the point is, what are they the most hysterical about when somehow the public, the voters, have been able to see Donald Trump himself?
Well, they're not going to be able to stop that for the three debates.
Trump is a nice man.
He comes across as a sweet man.
I mean, when that African-American pastor up in Michigan, I think quite rudely went and interrupted and was nasty.
Can you stick around?
He was really sweet about it.
He said, oh, okay.
Whenever you see him, his numbers go up.
Yes, I can stick around.
All right.
Well, because I never get to see you in the studio.
It's great to see.
Because you're like my adopted sister I fight with behind the scenes all the time.
And it's so annoying, but I still love you dearly.
You're such a troublemaker.
I mean, I have to get you out of trouble day in and day out.
I came in for a while.
I want another pillow.
I came for a pillow.
Isn't my pillow amazing?
It's fabulous, but I need two.
No, too bad.
Go buy one.
You get two for the price of one if you mention my name.
All right, we'll take some calls, too, in the next half hour for Ann Coulter.
Toll free.
It's 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Her brand new book, how'd you do it on the New York Times list?
Made the list.
I've the number three most selling hardcover in the country.
In Trump, we trust E. Pluribus Austin.
By the way, the New York Times has a history of not being particularly kind and generous to conservative authors when they have no idea.
No, and also they've really gone crazy this election.
I know you just talked to the New York Times reporter.
I did too.
And although he seems perfectly fair and honest, there's absolutely no way that can be a fair and honest piece.
I mean, I am the New York Times' most loyal reader, and they're out of their minds.
All they do is tell lies.
There was one article this weekend.
Well, for one thing, I was flying back from Alaska.
You know, I was in Alaska this weekend.
Where were you in Alaska?
Anchorage.
And what were you doing there?
Giving a speech.
It was fantastic.
It was awesome.
I've never been to Alaska.
It's like the only state I've never been together.
I know.
That's why I went there in the middle of a book tour.
I was dying to go.
Now there's only one state of the 50 I've invented.
Which one?
North Dakota.
If you could plan to North Dakota.
If you could plan a frequency.
You'd miss there or something.
I would accept any invitation.
I've got to go to North Dakota so I can say I've been to all 50 states.
I want to go to salmon fishing and moose hunting at Governor Palin's place.
But anyway, what were you talking about?
It was something important.
Oh, yeah, I was reading the New York Times and I picked up someone else's copy of it because I was rushing to make my connecting flight.
This was the day after the mall stabbing in Minnesota, the bomb in Seaview, New Jersey, the bombs in Chelsea, New York, front page of the New York Times, major story on the rise of the incidence of Islamophobia.
And I actually looked at the date of the newspaper thinking, maybe that man was reading a newspaper from last week.
The New York Times can't be insane enough to take the occasion of Muslims engaging in very poor deportment skills, once again, to run this article on the front page of their newspaper.
But no, that's what they do.
And in fact, I have an entire chapter on it in Trump We Trust on how the media have to basically since 9-11, they have turned themselves into the PR agents for Islam.
And the first thing they are worried about, the New York Times is terrified that somehow, you know, ISIS will get hold of a nuclear bomb, will hit New York because, Sean, that could give rise to that could give rise to Islamophobia.
Here's, I think, a question that every American needs to ask on national security: Do they want a president that can say radical Islam?
Do they want a president that's going to vet refugees?
Well, you don't want a president that's going to vet refugees?
I do.
No, sorry, go ahead.
Because clapping is.
What an obsession Fox News has with words.
The point is, they won't fight it.
They don't care about it.
They want this breakneck speed of importing ISIS to our country.
That's my point.
That's what this election is about.
You're missing my question.
You're not listening.
It's an obsession with words.
Okay.
It's almost like conservative.
Well, Clapper Karomi, Brennan, and McCall and General Allen all say ISIS infiltrates, and you don't vet them, and people die.
Why is Hillary in Democrats?
The vetting, I mean, as I point out in both Adios America and in Trump We Trust.
We can't vet them.
We can't.
There's no database to vet them against.
How about, as Trump said on December 8th, 2015, how about we take a little pause in Muslim immigration until we can figure out, I quote, what the hell is going on?
This idea, I mean, I go through this extensively.
The media keeps stating it is a fact and, you know, fact-checking Trump supporters who say the vetting isn't working.
And oh no, these guys, they're getting a rectal exam.
And then, you know, one after another, oops, another one slips through.
There's nothing to vet.
We happen to know that immigrants from Muslim countries, whom we are taking more of in since 9-11 than we did before 9-11, we bring in more immigrants from Muslim countries than we do from the entire British Isles.
That's insane.
That's completely insane.
100,000 from Somalia alone.
Now we know that in the whole pool of immigrants from Muslim countries, we are more likely to get a terrorist act than the entire pool of immigrants from the British Isles.
I mean, unless we're bringing in Muhammad Atta, I mean, that's gone all Muslim.
And look at what's happened in Western Europe for your future America.
It's true.
I think it's a good point.
All right.
Let's get to some phone calls here.
Ann Coulter is with us.
A brand new book is out.
It's called In Trump We Trust, E. Ploribus.
Awesome.
We have Barbara Baltimore, WCBM.
Barbara, say hi to Ann Coulter.
Glad you called.
Hi, Ann.
I'm a big fan, and I'm so glad to call today when you're on.
I'll have to get that book.
I love Godless.
I love you.
Your sarcasm.
Thank you.
You have to get the last two.
Well, you know, when you understand the English language and sarcasm and irony, it's just such great ways to communicate, and I love it.
Sean, I'm very excited about the show that you're having tomorrow with the black minister.
I'm just so proud of you and what Mr. Trump is doing, and you're right there supporting him.
I'd just like to say one thing about that.
You know, and I'm here in the blue state of Maryland.
Most of the Republicans here, they're rhinos.
Most of them were all Democrats just a few years ago.
And I love the way that, you know, not all of them, but a lot of them.
And what I don't want to see happen here is what the Democrats have done.
They show up for the vote and then they disappear.
I think I know that Mr. Trump wants to really change the community, all of the community, but here, and how you can influence him, I think he needs to get his people, outside people, Amarosa in particular.
Amarosa will be out there tomorrow with us, by the way, and a lot of other prominent people.
I would love to be in touch with her because people like myself, those of us who are educated, who are Republicans and conservatives, who haven't really, you know, the warm and fuzzy.
Republicans are not warm and fuzzy.
They haven't really learned how to do that.
That's why so many of us were Democrats for so long.
So, what's your question for Ann?
My question for you, Ann, and especially I know that Mr. Trump loves you as well.
I just, you know, my thing was mainly about keeping the black people engaged, doing what he wants to get done, and making it.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
And I totally agree.
And one of the things you always hear on TV, I mean, we've made fun of the rest of the media, even allegedly conservative commentators, they all have the same set points that are never based in logic.
Everybody just must say the same thing because they have to say something when they're on TV and they're not very bright.
And one thing, every time I turn on my TV, I think I hear someone, you know, an inside analysis that, well, the reason Trump is going after the African-American vote isn't really to get the African-American vote.
That's to get white suburban women.
No, I think he actually wants the African-American vote.
And the fact that he keeps going after it over and over again.
And moreover, look at his policies.
We'll get to his entire life in a moment.
But look at his policies.
Who does this dump of low-wage workers on the country through both legal and illegal immigration hurt the most?
African Americans.
Carol Swain, a black professor at Vanderbilt University, has written about this endlessly.
I cite her in Adios America.
This is who's being hurt.
The Democrats don't care.
Trump is absolutely right.
Democrats want the black vote, and then they say, see you in four years.
That's it.
Trump is going to bring jobs back, bring them back from Mexico, bring them back from Asia.
Oh, how about all the jobs building the wall?
Seriously, that is a lot of jobs.
How long is it going to take to build that wall?
A year?
Think of the massive number of high-paying jobs, the rebuilding of infrastructure, and then look at Trump's entire life.
Look at my column last week on this.
I have quotes from Mike Tyson, from Jamil Shaw, from ordinary blacks to celebrity black people.
They all say Trump isn't like other politicians.
Tyson even says, it's not like Barack.
Trump really cares about me and my family.
It has always been true.
He's always had a great relationship with black people.
He employs a lot of them.
And it's just, you know, part of the media's playbook.
A Republican's running for president.
We have to call him a racist.
Never been called a racist before in his entire life.
Barbara, thank you.
Appreciate the call.
Pastor Steve is in North Carolina.
Pastor, you're on the Sean Hannity show.
Ann Coulter's with us.
How are you?
Hey, Ann, how are you doing?
Great, thanks.
You sound like a New Yorker.
What do you mean you're from North Carolina?
Well, I'm from a lot of places.
I'm a military brat, but one of the things that keeps me passionate about listening to you and especially loving your work, Ann, I follow your work, and I think you are just fantastic.
Thank you so much for what you do.
Thank you.
Thank you for having the guts to put these idiots in their place.
Thank you.
I was at Ground Zero, Sean, as you know, for 10 weeks, starting on September 13th, counseling, praying with the first responders at the rubble pile.
And when I see the stuff that Hillary Clinton does with a straight face, I become literally enraged.
I have to stop, but I have to pray for myself just to count to 10 and try to get over it.
The other morning, I think it was Sunday morning when she came on, which looked like she had overdosed on her meds a little bit or something.
She went on this little soliloquy about how, well, Donald Trump said it was a bomb.
Now he shouldn't say anything before he knows what's really going on.
And I thought to myself, you know what, Hillary, you have a hell of a nerve criticizing anybody about something that happens on or about September 11th, some sort of a terrorist attack, because as we know, you stood in front of the parents of those people who had been killed there, who you let die, who you were in part responsible for, and told them a lie that you knew was a lie at the time.
And then you continued to tell that lie because politic is more important to you than the truth or anything else.
Pretty much the Democratic Party, isn't it?
I mean, they.
Yes, and if I could get back to the most important issue, immigration.
Trump is absolutely right when he's, and wow, Jeb Exclamation Point was shocked when he brought it up.
It wasn't part of the Republican repertoire to say, you know, you say Bush kept us safe, but hmm, I seem to remember 9-11 happening on his watch.
And his argument, which he did not make at that debate, but he had made previously, and the correct argument is, when they say, well, how would you have stopped it?
He says, well, maybe those hijackers wouldn't have been in this country if my immigration policies were in place.
And that's true.
That's true.
Why do we talk about 9-11 without considering what it is that brought these immigrants here?
I don't care if they're on tourist visas or work visas.
We don't have to admit them.
We don't have to admit any of the rest of the world.
What brought Omar Mateen here?
What brought the Zarnaev brothers here?
Instead of wandering off, liberals wander off on gun control.
Conservatives wander off on how we need to remake the entire Middle East into perfect Jeffersonian democracies.
How about don't let them in?
I think that's the answer, very simply.
All right, back to our phones.
Thank you, Pastor.
As we head to Paradise, Naples, Florida, my home away from home, Fox News 92.5.
Checking in with Greg.
Greg, you're on the Sean Hannity show.
Say hello to Miss Ann Coulter.
The ever so eloquent and formal bartender from Florida, just call and say hi.
I tried to go to the rally yesterday in a sterile.
Yeah, I saw it was packed.
I saw the lines.
They were massive.
There was over 20,000 people there.
We got there at noon.
By the way, another typical day in the life of Trump, by the way.
That's not unusual.
From the beginning.
Everyone needs to go to one of those rallies because it's all the people you see.
It's all walks of life.
It's everybody.
It's all the deplorables.
It's absolutely amazing.
I've never seen anything like it.
Most times you can go shake a candidate's hand, you know, say hello, greet them.
And very mixed race.
Very mixed race, contrary to what the media shows.
Also, remember, whenever they complain about Trump's audiences being too white, wow, something they'd never say about another ethnic group.
Please remember that when Trump went to an expressly African-American neighborhood in Chicago, protesters shut the rally down.
The media's response was to say, well, you shouldn't have gone there.
How dare you?
They try to make this difficult, and Trump just keeps doing it, keeps doing it.
The other thing about these huge rallies he's having, yeah, okay, it's true.
You can't, this isn't a poll.
You can't prove that Trump is going to win just because he has 30,000 people at his rallies and Hillary can barely get 200.
Yet and still, what's important about the enthusiasm and the rallies is, for one thing, I don't think those are voters who care that the New York Times and MSNBC and every other cable network is incessantly lying about Trump, just simply lying.
They will not be swayed.
Trump is right.
This is why he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue, and his supporters are not leaving him as long as he sticks to his policies on immigration and trade and so on and so forth.
And the other thing is enthusiasm bleeds to other people.
You have all of these fanatical Trump supporters who can talk to their neighbors and argue to their neighbors and counter the incessant bile we're hearing from the media.
So, yeah, I think these rallies do mean something.
All right, Ann Coulter, congratulations on your book.
Are you hitting any book signings in coming days or what are you doing?
I'm debating James Carville and Bakersfield in a few years.
California?
Yeah, in a few weeks.
Did they bring back that business conference they had years ago?
I heard they might be thinking about doing that.
I did that years ago.
I'm doing San Francisco a few weeks after that.
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm doing Philadelphia this Thursday.
Well, it's about time you told our friends at WPHT you're gonna be there.
All right.
Congratulations on the book in Trump We Trust.
E. Pluribus.
Awesome.
What do you think the odds are?
Last question, and you got a short answer here that he wins.
More likely than not.
And I think it's percentage.
I tell those you're 90% nomination, 60% presidency, maybe a little more than 60% now, because I've been able to watch and see everything's happening the way I thought it would happen.
And people, if anything, are going to watch Trump more.
This is an important election.
They're not just going to listen to the Treason Times.
They're going to want to see this guy, and you can't help but to watch him and see that he's a really sweet person.
He's not, you can't look at Jimmy Fallon pulling his hair and think he's Hitler.
All right, Ann Coulter, thank you for being with us in Philly on Thursday.
Then out in Bakersfield and San Francisco, go to anncoulter.com if you want more information.
Sometimes when I'm talking to young interns of the White House who are still immunizing themselves from the cynicism that's so chronic in this town, I remind them: if you had to choose a moment in history to be born and you didn't know ahead of time who you were going to be, you choose now.
Because the world has never been less violent, healthier, better educated, more tolerant, with more opportunity for more people and more connected than it is today.
ISIS has come out on online and essentially claimed responsibility.
And they talk about the blessed battle of Paris.
They say that eight suicide bombers struck at the heart of France's crusaders.
It says that they were sent to act on behalf of God and the messenger of God, the prophet.
What did he look like?
I mean, what was he?
Was he look angry?
Did he look mad?
Serious intent.
He stood up, screamed, la Akbar.
And they just started shooting.
He screamed a la Akbar.
He did.
Out of his lungs.
God is great.
And in the Muslim language.
He does not mourn his brother Tamerlan, that Tamerlan was a martyr now, that he was in paradise.
That Johar expected to join him there soon.
That the bombings were in retribution for the U.S. crimes against Muslims in places like Iraq and Afghanistan.
That the victims of the Boston bombing were collateral damage.
In a series of letters to the Memphis Commercial Appeal, an E.W. Scripps newspaper, Abdul Hakeem Muhammad says he drove to Florence, planning to open fire on the Army recruiting office.
But we're now told by several law enforcement officials that just before this shooting happened, Mateen, the man that the police say was the gunman, called a 911 phone number in Florida and on, once the operator answered, swore his allegiance to al-Baghdadi, the head of ISIS.
Shortly before Saeed Farouk and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, opened fire, Malik took to her Facebook page to pledge her allegiance to ISIS in Syria.
The weekend stabbing of nine people at the Crossroad Center Mall in St. Cloud, the alleged attacker is being identified by family members as Tahir Adan of St. Cloud, a young Somali man.
Reportedly mentioned Allah during the rampage.
ISIS says the man was a soldier for the Islamic State.
The manhunt for the suspect ending in a shootout, injuring 28-year-old Ahmad Khanrahami.
I don't think we're at war with Islam.
I don't think we're at war with all Muslims.
I think we're at war with jihadists.
And we are not at war with Islam or Muslims.
Let's be clear, though.
Islam is not our adversary.
Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.
Can't say what happened over the weekend is terrorism.
Anyway, news roundup information overload hour here on the Sean Hannity show, 800-941-Sean.
Paul Sperry has a great piece out today that America under Obama has suffered a terrorist attack, one serious Islamist terrorist attack a year under President Obama's watch.
Looks like the JV team isn't as contained as he says that it is.
And we went through, and you just heard a lot of the recent incidences where this has happened and what we've been living through.
Now, the New York bomber was pictured in a Pakistani paper on radicalization and a trip that he and his brother and sister revealed to have posted jihadi images online.
This happens all the time.
We find out what?
That there's all this evidence out there and available.
We don't catch these people.
We certainly don't have a big enough law enforcement presence on the internet, or else we'd be getting these people before they commit acts of terror because they keep posting and telling us and telegraphing this is what they're going to do.
Anyway, Ahmad Rahami was pictured in Pakistan with his brother, Mohammed Khan Rahami, as the pair cooked kebabs.
And the 2013 trip was one of a series of lengthy visits that he made to the country and to Afghanistan, which are now under FBI scrutiny.
Well, how many people have gone to Afghanistan or Syria or Saudi Arabia and then they come back and they're radicalized and they commit acts of terrorism here.
Anyway, we know that he spent time in a hotbed of fundamentalism.
And anyway, his married sister also posted videos from a pro-ISIS website showing destruction of New York.
Why didn't we pick this up ahead of time?
Why do we keep having our head in the sand?
And we also have indications.
Well, we find out the bomber is somebody that hates gays and lesbians, especially raised at gays in the military and the nation that gave his family asylum.
Oh, let's see.
Refugees.
Here we go again.
How many more refugees are we going to take in and how many more Americans may lose their lives or be victims of some terror attack because politicians are willing to gamble with your life?
We're certainly not gambling with their lives.
We're gambling with your life.
Anyway, he was also a deadbeat dad, fuming all over the internet about gays and the military, American culture.
His high school sweetheart knew all about his radicalism.
Why didn't she speak up ahead of time?
He'd often speak of Western culture, how it was different back home, and how there weren't homosexuals in Afghanistan.
Really?
I tend to doubt that.
Anyway, she believes Rahami was brainwashed, brought back a wife, another child when he came back from a trip to Afghanistan.
And, of course, he's a naturalized U.S. citizen whose family was granted asylum in 2011.
We grant asylum to people that hate us.
And we also had an indication very early on when he got here.
His dad and family sued New Jersey over a Muslim bias that they perceived because of some law enforcement looking into mosques.
What else did we learn?
Let's see.
Oh, they were able to ID this guy as a bum that was just laying in the street.
He was asleep before he threw pipe bombs and started shooting at the cops and was caught in a gun fight with the cops.
And it just goes on and on and on.
How many instances do we have to go through?
How many more people have to get hurt?
Let's see.
We have 9-15, New York, police officer attacked near Penn Station with a meat cleaver, 70 stitches in his face.
Then we've got St. Cloud, Minnesota, Somali member of ISIS, stabs nine people, screaming Allahu Akbar.
I'm sure that's not an Islamic terrorist attack.
I'm sure the President and Hillary will thread the needle there.
You got Marine vets getting ready for the Semper 5 run in New Jersey, Seaside Park, pipe bombs found along the route, but they were found before anybody was hurt.
Then, of course, Saturday night, pipe bombs found at 23rd and 27th Streets, both between 6th and 7th Avenues in New York.
Large explosion, 29 people injured.
But the Seaside Park bombs and the Chelsea bombs and the bombs found in Elizabeth, New Jersey, they all have one common denominator, and that's a flip phone trigger.
But they're not connected.
Just as Comrade Bozo de Blasio of New York.
This was an intentional act.
Really?
Gee, you're a genius.
You'd figure that all out on your own.
Can't believe it.
Raheem Kassam is with us.
He's the editor-in-chief of Breitbart News in London.
And Qasim Rashid is also with us.
And that's the national spokesperson for the Ahmadiyya Muslim community in the U.S.
And they are seeking more reconciliation among Muslims with the rest of the world.
But I don't think you're succeeding very much, are you?
I think we're making some great progress.
And, you know, we need to get past the point of mere condemnations.
You know, I commend our police authorities on doing a wonderful job in apprehending this terrorist in just two days.
And before we could do any more damage, I commend our police forces for doing a wonderful job of stopping.
All right, I'm willing to give all the props to the cops.
I am.
And you know what?
But here's the point.
How many more asylum seekers and refugees are we going to take in that don't really appreciate our goodness and kindness?
Well, look, the reality is, if you want to talk about the risk from refugees, statistically speaking, you have a 1 in 3.6 billion chance of being killed by an asylum seeker refugee.
You're going to have those lunatics.
But we need to go beyond the near condemnation.
This is where I invite all my fellow Americans to check out the True Islam Campaign at trueislam.com.
We looked at how extremists are radicalizing Muslim youth, are radicalizing people in general, and we provided a point-by-point rebuttal for all people to endorse and reject.
Listen, with all due respect, Qasim, you're the minority, though, in the Muslim community that's willing to take on radical Islam.
Now, and I appreciate, I really do, what the Ahmadiyya Muslim community is trying to do.
I understand you're speaking out against radicalism.
It's often puzzled me that, quote, moderate Muslims don't speak out.
Now, we know the reasons why.
There's fear of retribution, fear of being labeled an apostate, fear that they themselves will be targeted by radicals.
So I understand it, but it's really not impacting the way you say it is.
Sean, it's got to be a team effort.
If we only look at the white supremacists in our country, if we only look at them, we see that until we unite black and white against the white supremacists, we're not going to end white supremacy.
Same with these extremists.
This is where Muslims and non-Muslims need to work together.
Chief Bergwan, the police chief of San Bernardino, who was in charge of the terrorist attack in San Bernardino, he endorsed the True Islam campaign, saying this is what America needs right now.
Every American needs to support this campaign because it works.
And so this is why I asked my fellow Americans, check out the 11 points at trueislam.com and let's combat these extremists together.
Nobody dislikes or loathes these extremists more than Muslims do.
I assure you of that, because 97% of victims of terrorist attacks are Muslims.
So we need to work together, and I know if we work together, we can end discords immediately.
Let me go to what happened with Angela Merkel and her party in Germany.
They had a massive Berlin defeat in large part because of the, I guess, refugee population and problems they're experiencing there.
And I guess my question to you, Raheem, is that, you know, here you are, the editor-in-chief of Breitbart London, and you and I have been discussing this for a long time, the Islamization of Europe, and you've got 88 Sharia courts in your country of Great Britain, and you've got the problems in Germany and Paris and all of Belgium and all of Europe.
Now it seems to be a backlash has emerged.
How big is this?
Yeah, it's actually very big.
I mean, some people will tell you that it's only a Berlin state election from this weekend, but let's not forget this has been happening to Angela Merkel's party now, the Christian Democrats, for election upon election over the last few months.
People are absolutely fed up with the open borders policies that have been enacted by the German government.
They're fed up with what they're seeing, not just in terms of terror attacks, which I appreciate Kasim's statistics on the likelihood of those hurting you, but we should obviously be trying to minimize that too, but also what they're seeing on those street corners, also what they're seeing in terms of their taxes, in terms of their jobs, in terms of their cultures being affected and changed.
So this is the project Merkel.
But the pro-border security alternative for the German party won 14%.
Angela Merkel's party, the Christian Democratic Union, they only won 17.5%, the worst post-war result in Berlin before or after the 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall.
I mean, this is historic, and it's all due to the riding wave of popular anger over her open-door refugee policy.
That's exactly right.
And let's not forget that this border control party, the alternative for Deutschland, is a very new political party.
It's certainly new in terms of adopting a populist message as well.
It used to be a very academic party, and it still managed to come very close to beating the Christian Democrats.
They actually beat them in an election last month as well.
And the Christian Democrats has all the money and all the power and all the apparatus of the state.
It has obviously the chancellor of the country able to make as many speeches as she wants on television.
The AFD gets sneered at as fascist and racist and all this, and yet they still manage in the center of Germany's political establishment capital, Berlin, to turn out an election result like this.
It is telling.
Yeah, I think in a very big way.
What is it like, for example, you and I have discussed the media refuses to acknowledge no-go zones, but they do exist in different countries.
Is that true?
They do exist.
I mean, the detail of this and the debate around this seems to stem around just how no-go are the no-go zones.
The people who say they don't exist basically make the argument that, yeah, well, if you're careful and you go there at the right time of day, then you'll be fine.
But that is not something that should be the case in Western civilization at all.
It shouldn't be in any of these countries.
I've been to several of them.
I've been to the Molenbeck area of Belch in Brussels, which is absolutely horrific.
Tower hamlets in East London I often go to.
There are vast swathes of Bradford, of Luton, of Birmingham, which I would pass as quote-unquote no-go zones.
It depends what you mean.
Is a no-go zone somewhere you can expect to be attacked upon site?
No, not really, but is it somewhere where you would go and you would feel drastically and distinctly uncomfortable and perhaps be shouted at, screamed at, and even in some cases, as we're seeing at the moment, chased out?
Those definitely exist.
Yeah.
Let me give you, Kassim, the last word here.
I mean, do you really believe?
Well, we're really running out of time before I can get into this.
We'll have you both back, but I think you're both very informative.
Thank you both for being with us.
800-941, Sean is on number.
You want to be a part of the program?
I'll have more, obviously, on Hannity tonight, 10 Eastern.
All right, 25 till the top of the hour.
Toll Free telephone number is 800-941.
Sean, if you want to be a part of this extravaganza.
All right, as promised, we're going to get to our busy telephones.
Rebecca in Oklahoma, you're up next on the Sean Hannity Show.
How are you?
Hey, I'm doing great.
How are you, Sean?
Nice to talk to you today.
Nice to talk to you.
What's going on?
Well, I'm really concerned about the Syrian refugees that are coming in.
Hang on.
I feel like that they are coming in and it's going to be like a shotgun going off.
There's going to be buckshot.
You're never going to be able to get them back.
I served in Thailand.
I helped with immigrants and refugees, and they were actually fleeting for their lives because of all the terrorists that have come into their country.
And then yet we're going to allow them to come into here.
They're not coming here to acclimate.
They're coming here to annihilate and do away with our country.
They're not coming here to say, oh, I'm so excited to be in America.
Well, that's what Europe has experienced.
I mean, that's a good point.
Europe has experienced an influx of people with very different values.
And as a result, now you have Great Britain with 88 Sharia courts, and now you have Angela Merkel.
I mean, they lost major, major power.
I don't know if you saw the story, but I think this is very profound and perhaps something we should be looking at in terms of what's going to happen here.
But, you know, Angela Merkel did not fare well in these elections the other day.
And I think there's a good reason for it.
We do not want them.
We do not want the Syrian refugees.
The majority of them, they're wonderful, they're precious people.
But to bring in tens of thousands like the Hillary people are wanting to do is my committing Harry Kerry with our country.
It's astronomically ridiculous, and it's so harmful.
And I've seen it firsthand where ISIS came into these communities and cut hands and feet off and said, if you don't believe like we do, this is what's going to happen to you.
People are fleeing for their life, and yet we're going to ask them to come into our country.
This is astronomically ridiculous.
I agree.
It really, you know, America could be a very stupid country.
And unfortunately, we are following in the mistakes of Western Europe, and, you know, we'll pay a price.
But, you know, look at Angela Merkel.
I think this is a pretty big story that I think hasn't gotten enough attention.
But the German chancellor suffered what I would describe as a historic defeat.
It's the only way to describe it in Berlin elections after her open borders policy led to this wave of terrorist attacks throughout Germany.
But her party suffered a historic loss in Berlin in their state elections on Sunday while the right-wing populist AFD gained support, riding a wave of popular anger over open-door refugee policy.
Now, we haven't hit the critical mass that they have in Germany, but we're not far away.
I mean, we could keep seeing instance after instance.
You know, either the person responsible for the attack just recently traveled to Pakistan or Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan.
And, you know, they're people from other countries and they haven't assimilated to this country.
And now the question is, why does Hillary want a 550% increase?
Why does Hillary Clinton, why is she willing to gamble with your life?
That's a question I don't think she can ever answer.
Anyway, thank you, Rebecca.
We appreciate it.
Back to our phones.
It's Diplora.
Oh, this is Deplorable Lynn.
Hey, Deplorable Lynn.
Listening on news radio, WDBO.
What's going on?
Thank you so much for taking my call.
Love you.
Love you.
Love Ann Colger.
I love her taxi and smartness.
I'm also a U.S. Army veteran myself.
My comments to you, Sean, are this.
If we do actually take in all these refugees that Hillary Clinton is wanting, our country will be fundamentally and forever changed.
It will never, ever be the same.
They'll come in, they'll seek citizenship, they'll vote.
They will change the laws fundamentally.
We will have Sharia court.
We will be London.
And I just cannot stand by and do this.
I have only one vote, and it's going for Trump.
If I had more, I'd do more.
Listen, I said earlier in the program, America, live or die, choose in 49 days.
You know what?
I think it's a profound moment in our history.
And if people want to continue this destructive, declining state of Obama with Hillary, then we will pay the price and we'll get the president we deserve.
If America wants to reverse course and they want to change the direction of the country and they want to do so in deep and profound ways, then I think America's got a shot.
If not, you know, get ready for the onslaught of non-stop executive power grabs and basically rendering the, I guess, legislative branch and maybe even the judicial branch just rubber stamps for the executive branch.
That's what's going to happen.
I sure am.
I am proudly deplorable.
Oh, yeah, we're all deplorable.
And we're irredeemable.
And we're sexist and racist and homophobic and xenophobic, Islamophobic.
And it's the same old garbage we hear every election season.
Anyway, thank you.
Appreciate it.
Let's go to Jeff is in Oregon.
Jeff, hi, how are you?
Glad you called, sir.
Hey, Sean.
Thanks for taking my call.
I'm an internist.
I just retired this year after 45 years of practice.
Wow.
Also, I also worked as a radio medical host and correspondent for KBC and KVNW and KUGN.
So I've been in this business a little bit as a hobby.
I find there's something wrong with the picture when it comes to Hillary's health.
Believe it's my accurate information obscured.
Maybe purposefully, maybe omissions, maybe misinformation.
Her passing out is a major concern.
It might be fixable.
Clinton says, Bill Clinton says, it happens frequently.
In my medical training, anybody her age who has a passing out history could have a heart rhythm irregularity that requires a pacemaker.
And we don't find that with a normal echo, a normal EKG.
She should have what we call a holter monitor for 30 days or more, because if she's got this heart irregularity, it's going to keep happening.
The other issue I find.
Why do you think it's heart-related?
I haven't heard you.
I guess maybe because of the blood clotting, and maybe she's on lifelong Coumadin.
You think maybe there's AFib involved in that?
Because that would be the proper medicine for that.
Why not neurological from your perspective, as most other doctors have told me?
Yeah, having practiced with old folks who pass out a lot, old folks is 65, 70, and up, a strong consideration has to be, is there a need for a pacemaker?
No.
Coumidin is dangerous.
Her next fall may be a disaster.
I think Eric Siegel talked about that on your show one night a few days ago.
That is a danger.
The next fall could be very serious.
We sometimes don't give Coumadin to people who fall, but she's between a rock and a hard place.
I don't hear that she has atrial fibrillation.
Between rock and a hard place is if she's on the Coumadin, she may not get a clot.
If she's off the Coumadin, she may get a clot.
And so one has to weigh those things.
But I think either way, she's a potential danger.
If I may stick in one other point, this pneumonia in the right middle lobe, that's a direct shot from aspiration, the right middle lobe.
And so could she be aspirating, causing coughing, and getting a pneumonia?
And I also heard on your show, Dr. Siegel say that she might not be contagious and then switch that.
Any pneumonia has to be considered contagious until isn't the general feeling that if you're on antibiotics at the right time, that at some point it then becomes that you're not contagious?
Not if it's a virus, doesn't respond, and not if it's aspiration and some complicated infection.
The thing is, they could not have known in two days entirely, and they didn't disclose.
Yeah, I agree with that.
It wouldn't be a risk that I would take with other people.
Let me put it that way.
Especially, you know, we're not dealing with a small pneumonia here.
This is bacterial pneumonia, and depending on the variation, I mean, I know bacterial pneumonia nearly killed my own wife for crying out loud.
Yeah, it's the cause of death in all people.
If I could take on one more thing, because her stat almost killed her.
When we have people who faint, they take them to the ground, they put their feet up.
They raced her to the car, forced her into the car.
They could have caused a stroke or a heart attack.
That's a terrible way to treat a faint.
However, they didn't want the optics, I would guess.
And so a lot of things don't add up.
I don't think we're getting the right information.
But I really wanted to get across to you two issues.
One is she might be passing out from an obscure heart problem that they haven't found, and she might be aspirating, causing pneumonia.
And she probably does have a neurological disease.
It's very complicated, misinformation, omissions of information.
Well, you're not going to get the right amount of information because they're lying to you.
I mean, and that's, you know, that's part and parcel of the problem with the Clintons is they never tell you the truth.
So we're probably not going to know.
There's 49 days to go until election day.
And unless she has another, you know, type of collapse, probably she's going to get a pass.
All right.
Appreciate it, Doctor.
Thanks for all you do and all the lives you saved in the course of your life.
Carrie is in Texas.
Carrie, hi, how are you?
Glad you called.
Hey, Mr. Hannity, how are you?
I'm good.
What's going on?
Well, Hillary said something yesterday that just, oh, it's got my blood boiling.
She said she made the hard decisions about protecting our country regarding terrorism.
What the hell is hard about that?
Because I can tell you this.
I mean, ISIS is in 28 countries.
I mean, does she honestly think those 28 countries enjoy their citizens being terrorized?
This progressive, left-wing party, these liberals have got to wake up.
And Hillary Clinton, no to self, this country does not belong to only you.
It belongs to everyone under this roof.
And if somebody, somebody comes into my house and disrespects me under my roof, I'll kick their asses out.
Excuse my language.
They come into our country, our roof.
We need to kick their asses out.
You don't just disrespect us under our roof.
And I'm sorry I'm cussing, but like I said, my blood is.
You know, but think about it this way.
You know, it's like you're inviting people into your home.
I mean, aren't you selective in who you invite into your home?
Just like.
I don't even want some of my friends coming to my house for crying out loud.
I mean, think about it.
You're very discriminating.
And I'll use that word particularly when it comes to inviting people to your house.
Now, and you certainly want to know that the people you invite to your house are people that share your values, that are safe.
I mean, it's just common sense.
Well, we're talking about bringing people into this country that, as often the case, come from countries with values that contradict our deeply held constitutional beliefs about liberty and freedom.
And I'm speaking specifically about countries that practice Sharia law.
And so if we're going to invite those people in, I think we have a right to know whether or not they share our values and how to completely and fully vet somebody.
I don't know if you can ascertain what's in other people's hearts.
I don't know if you can do it.
And I think if we don't listen to the admonition of top law enforcement and intelligence officials that says ISIS is going to infiltrate, then I think the odds are pretty good that Americans are going to get killed and Americans are going to get hurt and incidents are going to occur.
It's not a genius thought.
I mean, it is just common sense.
If you cannot vet somebody 100%, you cannot verify 100% that we are safe with this person coming into our country.
That means at some point you're gambling.
At some point, you're gambling with people's lives.
And, you know, it's interesting the people making the decisions, they don't have any security issues because they've got security guards armed around them all the time.
The rest of us, we're on our own.
Absolutely.
You tell me that every American citizen has secret service?
No, ma'am.
Just because your family and Barack Obama's family, their children, every one of them is protected.
Well, guess what?
We're not because we can't even send our kids to the mall without getting stabbed, tortured with a knife, wounded, maimed by terrorism, or murdered.
Carrie, I got to move on, but thank you, and we appreciate your call.
Joe in Minnesota.
Of course, this is where the mall stabbing took place.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to our friends there.
How are you?
Sean, great to talk with you.
You know, I wish it were under better circumstances.
But just this morning, we saw a photograph of the murderer in St. Cloud on the cover of the Minneapolis paper, and it was like a thumbnail.
It was blurry, and he was, you know, wearing domesticated American, you know, he was in a tie.
We've seen images of our mayor and our chief of police here in Minneapolis wearing the hijab.
We are acquiescing to this culture, and as is our governor.
And what really makes me mad is they want us to all concern ourselves with what is the connection to the other terrorists.
Well, the other connection, if you really want to have an intellectually honest discussion about it, is the motivation.
And the motivation is what is said at every one of these executions is Allah.
These people are not here because they want to immigrate to America.
They are here as they incrementally invade our country and they want to take away our sovereignty.
I have worked with many Muslim people over the last 10 years.
They are not thankful.
They are not gracious.
They are rude.
And they refuse to speak English.
Well, I've met a lot of nice people, but I will tell you this.
Again, we go back to this clash of cultures.
Growing up under Sharia directly contradicts American cultural mores and American constitutional values.
And how you ascertain what's in somebody's heart is very, very difficult.
I'm sure many people that live under Sharia would love to escape Sharia life.
And I'm sure a lot of fathers might want their daughters not to marry men that are going to treat them like crap.
And, you know, how do you determine that?
That's the question.
