Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news roundup, information overload hour, toll-free.
Here's our number.
It's 800-941.
Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, let's go to last night.
Massive, huge win, historic win, Donald Trump in New Hampshire.
There's not been a presidential candidate since 1976 that has won both Iowa and New Hampshire.
You might recall in Iowa, Donald Trump shattered the previous record in terms of the percentage of the vote that was held by Bob Dole in 1988 with about 12.8% in Iowa.
Donald Trump won by a whopping 30%, breaking, shattering that record by more than double.
Last night heading into New Hampshire, it looks like the final number will be somewhere about a 12 or 13 percent margin when all the votes are finally counted.
Why they're not counted by now, I don't know.
But here's President Trump giving his speech last night, a little critical of Nikki Haley.
Listen.
And today, I have to tell you, it was very interesting because I said, wow, what a great victory.
But then somebody ran up to the stage all dressed up nicely when it was at seven.
But now I just walked up and it's at 14.
And she ran up when it was seven.
And, you know, we have to do what's good for our party.
And she was up and I said, wow, she's doing like a speech like she won.
She didn't win.
She lost.
And, you know.
Now, remember, after Iowa, she did claim, oh, this is now a two-person race.
The only problem with the statement then is that Governor DeSantis came in second in what any other election cycle election year would have been a very respectable showing.
But, you know, the total blowout changed that completely.
Anyway, joining us now is Eric Trump.
He is the executive vice president of the Trump organization.
That is the very same organization that values Mar-a-Lago at $18 million when it's much closer to a billion, if not more.
And that the whole case has to deal with whether or not the Trump organization overvalued the worth of properties, even though they had a disclaimer to tell business partners not to use their numbers.
And even though everybody, nobody's been aggrieved.
I've never seen a case like that in my life.
Anyway, I sort of digress here.
Eric Trump, welcome back, sir.
Hey, Sean, it's great to be back on.
I mean, it really is ironic, isn't it?
You go into a courtroom and it's about whether or not on paper your company valued properties the right way.
You have a disclaimer in every deal that you've ever done and every loan you've ever taken out and every insurance policy you've ever taken out that people have to use their numbers, not your numbers.
That's number one.
And number two, they have a fiduciary responsibility to do so.
To not do so would be absolutely reckless and irresponsible.
So, I mean, this whole case is absurd.
And then you have a judge that's supposedly going to adjudicate against you who actually values your property in Palm Beach, Florida, so far below market value, he's way more guilty of anything that they're even accusing your company of.
Yeah, but Sean, you're assuming that these people are using logic and you're assuming that these people are doing it because for a noble cause and for a justice legal cause.
They're not.
They're doing it because of political persecution of Donald Trump.
And you saw this when he came down the escalator.
You saw it with the Russia hoax.
You saw it with two impeachments.
You saw it with what they did to Kavanaugh.
You saw it, as soon as my father came out of office, they weaponized every DA and AG and far-left areas around the country.
And then, when that wasn't successful and some of these things are going up in flames and no one actually believes the charges, and you see what's happening in places like Georgia with Fannie and the affairs and everything else that's kind of bubbling to the surface, then they start trying to rip him off of ballots in places like Colorado and Maine.
And it's never been about what's just, what's right, was something done improperly.
It's never been about that.
It's about let's persecute Donald Trump.
And you were obviously talking about last night.
I was standing three feet behind my father, and I had a massive smile on my face because I think last night was vindication of every arrow that we've taken over the last three years, really three years since he's been out of office, but I guess call it seven plus years since he was in office.
The American people get it.
They came out decisively.
And, you know, it's more of the more the swamp hits my father, and the American people hate the establishment.
They hate the swamp.
They feel like they're being ignored and not listened to and used and abused and neglected.
The more that very institution that's doing that to so many Americans, pretty much every American, but so many Americans, the more they hit Donald Trump, I think the more popular my father gets.
And when you see last night, my father won the most votes in New Hampshire history for any primary.
I mean, the most votes by far.
When you see in Iowa, and I think you just mentioned this, you know, my father won by 30 points.
The next largest victory in Iowa state history was 12, and he won by 30.
And I mean, this is the American people speaking.
This is the American people saying, listen, I'm sick and tired of the nonsense, and we're sick and tired of our guy being victimized and villainized.
And, you know, we want our country back.
And I had a beautiful smile on my face last night because of it.
I think you have a right to.
And I've never seen one family, one man, one organization go through more persecution than you and your family.
It's unbelievable to me.
By the way, about 40,000 more people voted in the primary yesterday than in 2016.
And then when you start breaking down numbers, things get very interesting to me.
If this was a closed primary and you didn't have independents being able to choose whether they want to vote in the Democratic or Republican primary or up till some date in October, Democrats can switch affiliation to either Independent or Democrat and vote in the Republican primary.
I personally believe only Republicans should vote in Republican primaries and Democrats in Democratic primaries.
But, you know, 75% of Republicans voted for your dad.
And meanwhile, 70% of Nikki Haley's voters in New Hampshire were not Republicans.
They were either Independents or Democrats.
I just don't like that system.
I'm not sure why they make it so complicated when it's so simple.
I want that number to sink into people because I'm a numbers guy.
You know that, Sean.
You know me very well.
I'm a numbers guy.
70% of the people who voted last night for Nikki Haley, 70% were not Republicans.
I mean, that number has to sting.
And my father still won by 12 points.
Think about how big that was.
70% of the people who voted for Nikki Haley were not Republicans, right?
And you also look at the people who are funding her.
You know, so many of these people.
Look at Reid Hoffman.
She's one of, you know, this is the same person who's funding every bit of litigation or the vast majority of litigation against my father right now.
He's funding several suits against my father.
Look at the Rhino class that's supporting Nikki Haley.
I mean, the Koch brothers, et cetera, et cetera.
I mean, she's not running as a Republican.
At this point, honestly, I'd venture to gain the, I'd venture to say she's actually running as a spoiler because the very people that are funding her are Democrats and rhinos.
And the people who voted for her, even though she lost decisively yesterday, she lost totally decisively.
The people who are voting for her aren't actually Republicans.
They're just using the system, weaponizing the system to try and make my father look bad.
And at the end of the day, I think he looks better than ever because he was still able to win by 12 points, despite the fact that, again, Democrats and Independents came out in the masses who would have never otherwise voted in that primary to vote for Nikki Haley, and he still blows her out of the water.
So here's the reality, though.
She came in third in Iowa.
It was only a two-person race.
She lost by double digits in New Hampshire.
Then she's not competing in Nevada.
And then, of course, you've got South Carolina.
That's her home state.
Well, the current Real Clear Politics average, or at least as of last night, was Trump up 30.2%.
That is the average of every poll taken.
And I'm like, that's a pretty, I don't see that as I don't really see a path for her.
I mean, even if your dad only got half of that vote, it's a big win in South Carolina, and it's a winner-take-all state on top of everything else.
And he has the governor, two sitting senators, and most of the congressional delegation from South Carolina all supporting your dad.
Well, I think you just brought up a great point.
I thought it was incredibly insulting.
I said last night when I watched what I consider to be a victory speech for her, even though she lost decisively, she did the same thing in Iowa where she lost by 30 points and comes out, again, she came in third, as you just said, and then she comes out and says, I won the whole race.
I think beyond dishonest.
And frankly, the entire internet's laughing at her right now.
But Sean, that's 100% right.
And I think the American people can see somebody that's not sincere.
I think the American people can look at who's voting for her.
And I also think she really pissed off a big state last night.
She goes, we're going to go from here and we're going to go right to South Carolina.
But everybody in Nevada is saying, well, wait a second.
We're third in the nation.
We've been third in the nation for a very long time.
You're actually coming to us.
Now, she forgot to fill out her paperwork, and she's not part of the caucuses in Nevada.
And so she's going to have to miss that state.
My father will win 100% of the vote there, obviously, because, you know, but she goes, we're going to go right from New Hampshire.
We're going to go right to my home state of South Carolina.
No, no, no.
There's another victory in there.
And I think that's why my father declared victory last night in Nevada.
I mean, she's not even going to show up to that state.
She's not even going to try and participate there.
And she's going to get blown out of the water in South Carolina universally.
Even people that she appointed to seats in that state have all come out for Trump.
My father aligns so well with that state.
He's done a lot for this state.
But I mean, the people in South Carolina absolutely adore him.
And as you said, I think Real Clear Politics right now has him 31 points up over Nikki Haley.
And what's her path to victory?
I mean, she loses her own state.
So she loses the first state.
She loses the second state, all by big margins.
She doesn't fill out the paperwork to compete in state number three.
And then a state that she was governor in, again, South Carolina, she gets blown out of the water.
And then she wants to take this into Super Tuesday.
If she does that, Sean, she is just being a spoiler.
She may as well be working for the Democratic Party at that point.
She is being a spoiler.
And I wonder if it's because the donor class, which is so out of touch with the base of the conservative movement and Republicans in general, they have so hated your father, you know, from the day he came down that escalator at Trump Tower.
and they just can't believe that he, as I always say, defies conventional political gravity.
He just does.
And I think that one of the reasons is they have so overreached at this point.
I think your dad said, I'm only one indictment away from winning by a landslide because Against conventional wisdom with all the hoaxes and everything that you mentioned earlier about the Russia hoax and impeachment one and two and January 6th and withholding all exculpatory information.
And not being honest with the American people on every front, they just predetermined outcome.
It's frustrating.
I know it's got to be frustrating to you, but at the end of the day, it's not impacting voters at the polls.
And that is where I think there's been a lot of miscalculation by a lot of people.
Do you agree?
It's not.
And I don't want to sound like broken record, but again, the Democrats are funding her race.
Reid Hoffman is funding her race.
You know, I just looked at a big list.
She's doing a big fundraiser in all places in New York City.
I looked through the list.
We know some of these people, every single one of the people, and they're either rabid rhinos or they're Democrats who are funding Nikki Haley because they don't want to see Donald Trump be successful.
So, you know, I think every Republican needs to keep that in mind.
By the way, they spent $31 million in New Hampshire.
You know that.
That's a massive amount of money.
Yeah, and in Iowa, I think they spent $1,700 or $1,800 per vote that they received in the state.
Huge sums of money.
And my father was a tenth of that.
And so they're raising lots and lots of money.
They're putting ads all over the place.
Clearly, it's not working.
Clearly, it's not turning out people.
And the only people they are turning out are people from the opposite political party who are coming to vote in a race to try and be spoilers against Donald Trump.
Sean, it's not going to work.
She's got no path to victory.
Obviously, he's going to win Nevada next week.
He's going to win her home state of South Carolina.
And I hope the call is to have her out of this race so we can focus our attention on Joe Biden.
Joe Biden is the worst president we've ever seen in this country.
Nothing's going well.
The American dream in this country is being lost.
The sense of family, the sense of community, the sense of God, our Constitution, our First Amendment, freedom of speech, that's all being lost in this country.
Patriotism is being lost.
Our standing around the world is being lost.
And that's before you even get to our economy, which is in shambles, inflation, which has just crammed down people's salaries.
Our military, which is, you know, I mean, every day, another one of our warships has a missile shot at it, and we don't do a damn thing about it because, you know, we've got weak leadership.
By the way, there's been 200 attacks against our troops in Iraq and Syria.
Nothing happens.
I want to remind you, Sean, you know this better than anybody.
Under the last 18 months of my father's presidency, we didn't lose a single service member in Afghanistan.
And you know why?
They had respect for the man.
They had respect for his strength.
You know, I always talk about the picture of Obama.
He's behind 12 inches of plexiglass with the biggest binoculars I've ever seen from 10 miles away looking into North Korea.
And the next picture is my father walking over that little line in the DMZ, shaking hands with Kim Jun and literally walking right into the country and having great relationships.
It's the difference between somebody who's perceived as weak on the world stage, which Joe Biden is, and somebody who's strong.
And my father was strong, and we need strength as a country.
We're going to get run over if we don't have strength.
There's a lot of bad actors around the world.
You covered them better than anybody every single night.
And we better have somebody that has some strength and some grit and some backbone and some true fight in the White House.
Otherwise, we don't stand a chance.
Eric Trump, always great to have you.
I think you're going to join us on TV tonight, 9 Eastern.
Hannity, we look forward always to having you.
Thank you, sir, for being with us.
Can't wait.
800-941-Sean, our number you want to be a part of the program.
Quick break, right back.
25 to the top of the hour.
We'll get to your calls coming up in a second.
800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Carrie Lake, this is a bizarre story.
I still cannot wrap my arms around what the heck is going on here.
And I have no idea where this audio recording came from.
I know the Daily Mail got possession of it and they published it.
I've not heard anyone say that they deny it's real, but you know, who took the audio recorded message.
But anyway, it's of an Arizona GOP chairman and basically say, you know, what's it going to take for you not to run?
Now it goes on for, you know, a little over two minutes, but I'm telling you, it's worth listening to and you're thinking, what the hell is going on here?
Because it's so bizarre.
Listen.
So what's going on?
What is, I'm assuming this is our friend.
This is, this is, this is bad.
They're very powerful people.
They want to keep you out.
No, they do.
But they're willing to put their money where their mouth is in a big way.
So, this conversation you never had.
This is crazy, though.
They should want me.
I'm a great candidate.
People love me.
These people are corrupt.
Well, maybe you're right.
They are corrupt.
Maybe you're.
Don't go.
I'll get myself in trouble.
This, if you say no, which is fine.
It's your choice.
Don't tell people.
They're going to try to have me murdered.
Face world, man.
If that stuff that came out last week is right about the cartel stuff.
They said the cartel's operating in 50 states right now.
So.
So what's going on?
Who is it?
What?
Forget the who.
Let me just tell you what.
Let's just say there are people calling around saying, oh, gosh, no, they can't repeat this.
Never repeat this.
If you say no, don't say, I got offered to buy it.
Because then we lose our ability to get things done in the future.
Here's my problem.
Rather than just say, let's work.
It's about control.
It's about being on the team.
I guess they want to be on the team.
They want you to be on their team.
But if they're pushing a globalist agenda, I can't do that.
So what do they want?
What do they want me to do?
You want it to stay opportunist.
But, let me tell you what I got for you.
But I said she can do whatever she wants.
Talking head isn't that.
So the ask I got today from back east was, is there any companies out there or something that could just put her on the payroll and give her to keep her out?
And I said, well, what are you willing to do?
Whatever we need to do.
This is about defeating Trump.
And I think that's a bad, bad thing for our country.
Just to say, is there a number at which I can be bought?
That's what it's about.
You can take a pause for a couple of years.
No.
They go right back to where you do.
No. 10 million, 20 million, 30.
No, no, no.
A billion?
No.
This is not about money.
This is about our country.
Now, Jeff DeWitt, who is the Arizona GOP chairperson, has resigned.
Maybe that's an indication this thing is authentic.
I don't know if Carrie Lake herself, I've not seen that she's commented on this at all.
And I have no idea if she herself recorded it.
Somebody else recorded it.
I don't know what the lawyer did.
She did one party.
She did.
She came out.
She said, no, no, no, no, no.
She didn't record it.
She told the GOP chair to resign after the audio was released.
She's like, this is insane.
Like, you got to step down.
You know, so I think there's more to come on this.
But as of right now, you know, Jeff DeWitt has resigned today as GOP chair of the Arizona Republican Party.
He's out.
And we'll see what comes next.
But I mean, it's weird, man.
It's bizarre.
Hey, Mike McLindell, all his employees, they want to say thank you.

If you're looking for one of their new products, you can try the new flannel sheets.
Again, 50% off.
They don't expect those to be in stock for long.
They have their brand new six-pack towel sets.
Again, half price of $29.98.

You have sales on kitchen towels, dog beds, blankets, so many of their products.
It's simple.
You go to mypillow.com, click on the Sean Hannity Square, or just call 800-919-6090 and mention my name, Hannity, for these great thank you sale benefits that they're offering.
All right, so on the Carrie Lake story, as we get more information, we'll update you.
I'll tell you, that's a mystery to me.
Anyway, 800-941, Sean, on number if you want to be a part of the program, Lewis is in Louisiana.
Lewis, hi, how are you?
Glad you called, sir.
Very good, Sean.
I'm a longtime listener and big fan.
What's going on?
To talk about a couple of things.
One, I have seen a kinder, gentler Trump.
I kind of maybe he's trying to act a little more presidential.
I've seen it too, and I pointed it out.
And I think it's, you know, first of all, it's part of who he is.
It's not contrived.
I think he's learning that that's what he needs to do to keep everything on an even tone.
The other thing is that when he gets into office, last time he left some people in the White House, and I think it stabbed him in the back.
He needs to clean house this time.
When he's elected, he needs to get rid of everybody and start fresh with his own people.
Look, I think there are some people he should bring back.
Ratcliffe, I think guys like Devin Nunes would be, who's running Truth Social.
I'd bring him in.
Mike Pompeo, I think Mike Pompeo is phenomenal on foreign policy.
He understands peace through strength.
I would definitely be looking for the right attorney general that can clean up that department.
I would look for a new FBI director that would make sure that the FBI and the DOJ aren't weaponized or politicized.
I put in stringent requirements in terms of the purview of their involvement, especially when it comes to elections.
And anyway, I would just restore equal justice under the law, equal application of our laws.
I'd get a Department of Homeland Security Secretary that would implement immediate border controls.
I would get an energy secretary that believed in all the above and had a goal of American energy dominance.
You know, just things like that.
That's what I would do.
And a lot of this, you know, President Trump is right when he says a lot of this can be done very quickly.
Very, you know, we could see a turnaround much faster than we may imagine.
We saw, we sunk faster than we could imagine either.
Anyway, Lewis, good call, my friend.
800-941 Sean, our number, Barbara, Kansas, next, Sean Hannity Show.
How are you, Barbara?
I'm fine, Sean.
I've been trying to get through for eight years.
Wow.
I'm glad you made it.
This is a happy day for you.
It's a happier day for me.
Thank you for listening for so long.
Oh, you're so welcome.
Thank you for being there.
It's my honor.
So what's going on in Kansas today?
What's on your mind?
Well, you know, I've been trying to get through it here for years, and I tried to get through to Rush Limbaugh did.
But my story is when my kids were little, I had four grown sons.
When they were little, I read them thousands of books, but one of them was called The Emperor's New Clothes.
And the analogy between that book and the government as it's been since Obama was in office is the emperor, I believe, was like an airhead, and he let other people tell him what to do.
And that would be the dictator in the White House.
The shysters that came into his palace and sewed him a whole collection of new clothes that were invisible, they were the people in the Congress, like Schumer and Pelosi, and all the swamp.
The people in the town that clapped and said how beautiful he looked, those are still part of the swamp.
The little boy at the end of the road, as the emperor walks down the road of the town, that laughs and says, What are you talking about?
He's naked.
There is no new clothes on him.
This is ridiculous.
That's Trump.
I'm not comparing him to a little boy.
I'm comparing him to the American people who tell the truth and want the truth.
Listen, in my mind, that is probably his greatest asset.
I really believe that.
And I think Donald Trump has been, you know, somebody that has shown and proven himself a very, very savvy, sophisticated politician that negotiates with everything on everything.
And I just think that for him to continue to do so is a great idea.
And I just, you know, I look at this as an opportunity for him to, you know, show the American people, remind them of what life was like underneath him before Joe got in office, how bad Joe has botched things up, and how important it is we get America back on the right track again.
They're going to try to talk about anything and everything else besides those things, but he controls what he says.
And that is the message I would focus on more than any other.
And the fact that he would get the job done.
The American people are sick and tired of this.
I mean, every exit poll from Iowa and New Hampshire is the same thing.
They are frustrated about the economy.
They're frustrated about the borders.
They see these witch hunts against Donald Trump as purely political.
I think people, you know, you got to give them credit.
They sometimes are a lot smarter than the media ever gives them credit for.
I'll tell you that.
You know, like the same people last night, they don't even want to run all of Donald Trump's victory speech.
Why not?
It's what?
It's too painful for the ears of liberals to hear ever from a Democrat.
All right, whatever.
Back to our phones.
Greg and Maryland, how are you, Greg?
Glad you called.
Andy, you're a great American.
You're a great American, sir.
God bless you.
God bless America.
Let's get a full report.
Well, first of all, Merry Christmas.
I tried to get you in December, but as you know, it's a process to get on.
And happy new year.
Happy 2024.
Well, thank you.
Happy New Year.
Hope you had a great holiday, you and your family as well, sir.
Yeah, same to you.
First thing I wanted to say is thank you.
I've always wanted to tell you that to you since Hennedy and Combs days, like 99, 2000, when I first heard your voice.
At the time, I worked in radio at WBAL in Baltimore, and I would hear Rush and the weekend review on the weekends.
It was my job as a producer to play it at midnight.
And my grandfather, he had told me about Rush.
He had told me about you, and he was right.
I was just young and stupid.
I was hammerized.
Just like listening to Rush, I could hear the voice of truth, and I heard that same voice in you at really, take it the right way, a young age.
You know, you're a couple years older than I am, but we've both aged well.
And I just enjoyed you.
So I want to say thank you.
Thank you for what you do.
Thank you for what you the way you lead in this country is amazing.
Your audience is huge because people know that you're the real deal.
You're really kind.
I get very uncomfortable with a lot of compliments, but I'm just going to say this.
I thank all of you because you have the ability to hire and fire me every day.
If you don't watch my show, you can fire me from TV.
If you don't listen to the radio show, you can get me fired from radio.
I've always believed that the best way to capture an audience is to be sincere, genuine, truthful, and, you know, you can't be a phony on the radio and I think get away with it.
I just, the real you at some point has to come out, will come out, and people can see phonies a mile away.
You know, I do this now because I love it, and I really want our country to get back on track.
I'm worried about it.
Well, one more, one more nicety, and then my big point for today.
I believe you're the Ronald Reagan of our generation.
And I just have a feeling that that's going to hit you a certain way because we all know the stories of Reagan.
I grew up in the 80s young, and it was, you know, the cowboy, the radical, and just the negativity.
And then it's funny, years and years later to hear not just Democrats that have turned and said how great he was.
Obviously, Republicans have always stood up for him, but Ronald Reagan had the connection with the people.
Rush Limbaugh had the connection with the people.
And you, Sean, have that connection.
I feel like we're friends.
We've been friends for years.
It was 18 years that we didn't talk, and it felt like it was a week.
You know, I mean, in a way, I mean, people that listen to this radio show, I mean, we've become like a radio family.
And it's, you know, the things that people remember going back, you know, from my earliest days in radio, I'm very humbled by it.
But it is like that because it's unlike music, radio listening.
I mean, you can put music on in the background and not really hear a thing that the DJ says in between the songs or even remember the songs themselves or even be listening to the songs.
But, you know, to be listening to talk radio, you've got to care and you've got to be interested in events.
And I just feel like, you know, thank God there are conservative outlets like Talk Radio, like Fox News, like all the podcasters and everybody else that does their part.
I don't minimize their contributions at all.
To me, it's an all-hands-on-deck moment for the country.
