Leonard Skinner, it's Simple Man, and that can only mean one thing on this radio program, and that is all things self-proclaimed, Simple Man.
That means all things Bill O'Reilly.
That means all things O'Reilly at billo'reilly.com.
And Mr. O'Reilly, sir.
Before I get to the question that I telegraphed that I would ask you last week, and that is about the upcoming debate.
There are polls out today, and these are not polls that are put out by radical conservative groups.
Nate Silver, you would agree, is slants left in his polling, right?
Yeah, he leans left.
Okay.
So Nate Silver has a piece out today.
The presidential election is not a toss-up.
And he goes on to say the odds of Donald Trump winning are 65.7% and Joe Biden 33.7%.
And I just want to get your take on that because I think that's a pretty profound prediction on his part and pretty meaningful.
Yeah, but Silver's taking that from Ladbroke in London.
Those are the betting odds in London.
That's where he's taking that stat from.
At this point, I would say if the election were held tomorrow, Trump would win.
But it's not a comfortable margin.
It's not a comfortable lead.
So the first polls after the debate will be very meaningful.
And I want everybody to go to billoreilly.com and read my message of the day that you referred to because I did give Donald Trump a killer line.
And I was looking for one to give Joe Biden two.
I really was.
I wanted to get two killer lines that these guys could deliver in the debate.
Simple, obviously, but very effective.
And I really couldn't come up with one for Biden because his administration has been such a failure.
If you step back and you look honestly at it, no emotion.
If you step back and you look honestly, you can't find any way that he has improved the country in three and a half years with the possible exception of lowering some drug prices, of deals with pharma.
That might be the only one.
But that's not big enough to override the main concerns of the debate.
Now, if you want, I have 10 questions that I would ask if I were the moderator.
Five to Biden, five to Trump.
I don't think I want the questions yet.
I want to get first your advice for Donald Trump and what advice you have for Joe Biden.
I would prefer that if you don't mind, and then we'll go to your question.
You don't have to go to them if you don't want to, because I'm going to be doing that on News Nation tonight.
I'm going to be doing that on my newspaper.
All right.
Do you mind stopping with the plugs?
Seriously?
Can you stop with the plugging for a second?
Can you just answer the questions?
You don't need plugs, Addy, because you got the TV and a radio show.
I have to plug it.
But anyway, my advice to Donald Trump is this: go on to the debate and don't be angry.
It's simple man advice.
Go on there, be confident because you have a record to run on, but do not be angry because he needs women who are in the middle, undecided, to vote for him.
They don't, generally speaking, like angry men.
For Joe Biden, the advice would be slow down and try to answer the questions.
He's not going to take either of those things.
He's going to be speeded up like he was during a State of the Union.
And I don't imply anything there because I can't possibly prove that the man takes substance.
I can't.
I didn't say you could imply it.
Maybe it's just hypercaffeinated Joe or Jacked Up Joe, as I call him.
But, Bill, you have to face a simple reality.
And I'll play a comparative tape for you.
And that is every day, cognitively impaired Joe, and then this one day we had Jacked Up Joe at the State of the Union screaming his speech at a record warp speed that we'd never seen before or seen after.
And people say, you know, well, I'm being unfair, but something was very, very different and off.
And people reported it.
But then, unfortunately, some people then go into, well, he's using pharmaceuticals.
You cannot, as a reporter, an analysis, you can, but it's not really, I don't do it.
I just won't do it.
But for Biden, this is what you got to watch in the debate because it's very interesting.
This debate is not about Trump at all.
Not about Trump.
Everybody knows everything about him.
Okay?
This debate is about Biden.
And if Biden can convince enough undecided, independent voters that he is not out there, he's not cognitively impaired.
That's what he has to do.
And that's the drama of the debate.
In order to do that, you've got to slow it down.
And you can't be saying the same words over and over and over and over.
So the big challenge for Joe Biden is for five days, he's been hold up.
Bill, I have to correct you.
It's been seven.
All right.
For seven days, he's been hold up in Camp David, memorizing, memorizing, because they know what the questions are.
It's not that CNN has fed them the questions, but they know what's coming.
All right?
Border, inflation, Ukraine, Israel.
Okay.
I think you're missing an important point here.
And I just very gently beg to differ, and that is I think half the debate are going to be questions designed to trap Trump.
You know, it's going to be who won the 2020 election?
Why did you encourage violence and insurrection on January 6th?
Will you use your office for retribution and then abortion?
And as far as the.
I'm Trump.
You ask those questions.
I'll give you the answer.
I can ask you all of them, but I want you to continue your thought.
But I do think it might take up half the debate and they'll waste all of that time living in the past.
Okay, absolutely right.
I'm Trump.
Go.
Ask me a question.
I'll give you the answer.
Okay.
Who won the 2020 election?
In my opinion, there were many, many things that happened in that vote that are still to this day undefined, and I have a perfect right to state my opinion about them.
For example, where did $300 million go that Mark Zuckerberg poured into the election?
Do you know Jake Tapper?
Do you know Dana Bash?
Where'd that money go?
You telling me I don't have a right to an opinion that that election wasn't straight up?
Are you telling me that here tonight on the stage?
How about that answer?
Let me ask you a question.
I have been very, very hesitant to state publicly what my answers would be.
Now, Bill, tell me if I'm paranoid or not.
Do people monitor on the left shows like ours, and do they look for clues of things that they suspect that maybe Donald Trump will hear?
And do they suspect that if I gave a really good answer, that they probably would study it?
Am I paranoid?
Are there people out there that monitor every word we say for the purpose of trying to get us boycotted or fired or in some type of trouble?
You know the answer to that question.
Media matters.
Well, I'm talking about the folks, Bill.
The folks don't know the world we live in.
And so I have been hesitant to do that.
Like, I have a great answer on abortion.
I have a great answer on January 6th.
I have a great answer on who won the 2020 election.
I have a great answer on retribution.
And I think that they'd be very good.
But I don't want to give the answers, Bill, because I think that Donald Trump, I think more than people think, is going to be on his game.
I don't think he's going to be angry.
I think you're correct, 1,000% correct.
Rule number one is when they call you a convicted felon, when they yell that you're an insurrectionist and a threat to democracy and unhinged and radical and extreme, you just don't react to it.
That's right.
That's it.
And you stay to your game plan, which is, are you better off than you were four years ago?
You know what?
You can do what Reagan did.
See, Reagan was so good because he was an actor.
He's a trained actor.
And so when they prepped him, he was an easy, easy student because he was used to memorizing scripts.
He was used to putting these lines up.
But any question that Donald Trump doesn't want to answer, he really doesn't have to answer.
Remember, he's uninterrupted.
So the tapper can't jump in and go, yeah, I can't do it.
But Trump needs to be very, very straightforward about his record and about what he will do to correct the disaster that all Americans are living through now.
People, even in my circle, and I got a big, wide circle, Hannity, whenever I say to liberals who are Biden supporters, do you really believe that this man, if re-elected, is going to improve the country?
It's going to get way worse than it is now because there are no constraints on him then.
All right.
Let me ask you another important question because I don't want to waste our time together because you have a lot of insight and I want to get your insight.
Okay.
I have been chronicling that Jake Tapper, as I affectionately call him fake Jake and fake Dana Bash.
They pretend to be something they're not, Bill.
They pretend to be journalists.
And I have played for them in their own words all of the opinions that they offer about Donald Trump.
You know, America's long nightmare is now over for millions and millions of Americans.
For example, that would be called opinion.
That's not journalism.
And you'd agree with that, right?
Okay.
So they're talking liberal hate Trump talk show hosts, and Trump had, in the history of modern televised debates, no one candidate has been shut out of the process of selecting a moderator or the network on which it would be chosen except for Donald Trump.
So it's very likely three-on-one.
And then they're going to put up Chirons with truncated questions, and it'll say, Donald Trump explains why he supports insurrection, which is just a lie.
Peacefully, patriotically, march so your voices will be heard.
Anyway, how should he deal with them?
We have 90 seconds.
Okay.
I wrote a column on Sunday, Bill O'Reilly, Doc.
I'm another plug.
Sorry.
It said, every.
Good grief.
You're a plug machine, but go ahead.
I'm a plug machine.
Every time he gets an unfair question, Trump just should look at the camera and say, I'm going to answer that in a moment.
But why, Jake, why haven't you asked Joe Biden this question?
And Biden and Trump should have, I don't know, seven, eight questions memorized that he would like to know and Americans would like to know.
Embarrass them.
Confront the moderators at CNN with questions they have not asked Biden.
That will blow them up.
You know, one thing I can take out of this interview today, and you're going to hate what I'm about to say, you're going to hate it.
Is great minds think alike.
Yeah, plus.
There's nothing that you have said here today that I disagree with.
But don't do it mean.
No, I agree with that too.
And by the way, Trump has been very dialed in.
I spent time with him two weeks ago, as you know, had a very long interview with him, about an hour and 10 minutes straight to tape, no interruptions at all.
And then he went and did about an hour and a half with Dr. Phil, and then he went to a dinner, and he was dialed in for each interview.
Like I've never seen him dialed in before.
I've been interviewing him for years, even before he ever ran for office, like you have.
Yep.
And I think that Donald Trump wants to win this election.
And I think that without listening to you or me, I think that's the Donald Trump I would expect to see tomorrow.
Last word for me, because I know you have to sell amazing products.
If Donald Trump follows our advice and is calm, not angry, and turns it around against Dana Bash and Jake Tapper by simply asking them, why haven't you asked Joe Biden about $50 billion of U.S. weapons left to the Taliban and let that just float in the air?
Because they're not going to ask Biden many relevant questions.
And Trump can destroy them.
Not mean, not name-calling, just saying, wouldn't this be an interesting question to get Joe Biden's opinion on?
It's cost, what, $350 billion to support all the migrants that have come in under his administration?
Is that a worthwhile use of the American tax dollar?
Why haven't you asked him that?
There you go.
All right, Bill O'Reilly, all things, Bill O'Reilly at BillO'Reilly.com.
We will watch.
We'll get your analysis next week, sir.

Our toll-free number is 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
You know, now that we know the horrific details of, you know, what has been happening with Joe Biden's open borders, it really is pretty unbelievable.
Everything Donald Trump predicted when he came down the escalator and was excoriated for, that people unvetted coming into this country, some of them, he said, would be good people, but some would also be rapists and murderers.
You know, look at this little girl raped in a park and the whole thing is videotaped, brutalized by a Joe Biden unvetted illegal immigrant.
Look at Lake and Riley.
Look at the mother of five, Rachel Morin.
I interviewed her mother.
You know, last night on Hannity, we interviewed the mother of this little girl, Jocelyn, out of Houston.
Jocelyn Nungre is her name.
And I interviewed her mom, Alexis, and her grandfather, Kelvin.
And I mean, it's the most heartbreaking thing in the world.
And finally, you know, here we are just a mere 131 days outside of the election and only 82 days until early voting begins in Pennsylvania.
And now all of a sudden they're trying to flip the script from what they've been lying to us and telling us for the last three years.
And even Mayorkas admitted this morning that, in fact, oh, we don't have the detention capacity sufficient to meet the number of illegal immigrants.
Well, that's not what you told us for years.
This is what Mayorkis said this morning.
Number two, the number of individuals whom we've released into immigration enforcement proceedings subsequent to the president's proclamation has dropped significantly.
But remember that our detention capacity, and this is not specific to our administration.
This has been historic ever since the 90s when I was a federal prosecutor.
Our detention capacity is not sufficient to meet the number of people we encounter, and therefore we have to release people into the United States when they are in immigration enforcement proceedings, and we put them on alternatives to detention when that is necessary from an enforcement perspective.
That's just a bunch of nonsense.
The same guy that bragged that they got rid of all of the Trump policies with a stroke of a pen, too many to list, Mayorka said.
And then you had Joe, and you had the border czar, Vice President Harris, M.A. Orkas, and Circleback, Jensaki, and Clarine Jean-Pierre.
They all lied to us again and again and again.
The borders closed.
The border's secure.
The borders closed.
The border's secure.
And now with, what, a mere 131 days till election day, 82 days until early voting starts, now they're going to admit they don't have the capability.
Why haven't they fixed this problem that they caused in three and a half years?
And as I've been saying, they have blood on their hands.
And we likely have terror cells in this country.
And they are plotting and planning and scheming the next attack on our country.
And I don't even think it's a matter of if anymore.
It's a guaranteed of when.
I pray I'm wrong.
I don't think I am.
But listen to them.
The last three and a half years, the big lie they've told.
The United States will continue to enforce our laws and secure our border.
But the border is in fact secure.
A record 221,000 migrants crossed into the U.S. last month.
Our border is secure.
We believe certainly that the border is secure.
1,300 migrants a day.
We have taken unprecedented action over the past year and a half to secure our border and rebuild a safer and orderly process system.
This year is on pace to be the deadliest year for migrants crossing into this region of Texas in recent memory.
The border is secure.
The border is secure and the border is not open.
So we are offering solutions.
That's what the Biden-Harris administration has been doing since day one.
This is worse now than it was before.
A record number of migrants this year, and the total could surpass 2 million by the end of September.
We're certainly doing a lot more to secure the border.
We have a secure border.
And we have a process in place to manage migrants at the border.
A record surge of migrants in New York City.
Over 2 million illegal immigrants crossing the southern border.
An all-time record.
The border is secure.
We agree that the border is secure.
No.
Tell that to the families that just lost loved ones.
Tell it to Lake and Riley's family, Rachel Morin's family.
You know, tell it to little, tell it to Jocelyn's mom and dad and granddad that I interviewed the grandfather and her mother last night.
The hardest interview to do, to interview a parent that just lost a child.
You know, that little 12-year-old girl fought back.
I mean, for two hours, they believe she was brutalized, and she fought, and she bit and she scratched those people attacking her.
She's only 12 years old.
And look at what they did to this girl.
And none of this should have happened.
All of it's preventable.
But they lie and they lie and they lie.
Are you better off than you were four years ago with Joe's open borders?
No.
His economy?
No.
E-Fund dismantled no bails?
No.
Record high, 40% higher energy prices?
No.
Are you better off in any way?
Is the world better off?
Is the world more safe and secure?
You don't think it matters this election?
It matters.
Reminder, by the way, since the terror attacks on October 7th, what have we been watching in the halls of Congress, college campuses around the country?
You know, virulent anti-Semitism on the rise all over Europe and Australia, around the world.
And it's just sad what we're witnessing.
We have proudly partnered with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, and we just are asking you to stand with us, stand with the IFCJ at a point in history when it matters.
And we're asking people to show the people of Israel they're not alone and that they have every right to defend themselves and win their war against radical Islamic terrorism.
Now, for the month of June, they're simply asking everyone to sign a pledge.
That pledge will be delivered to the president of Israel.
It will show that here in America, we are not only standing in solidarity, but we're also speaking up and taking a stand with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews to let the people in Israel know that they are not alone.
Just to sign the pledge, it's simple.
Just takes a minute of your time.
Go to their website, supportifcj.org.
That's supportifcj.org today.
All right, let's get to our busy phones.
800-94-1 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, Rick is in Brooklyn, New York.
Rick, hi, how are you?
Glad you called on the all-new AM710 W-O-R.
Hey, Sean, I'm doing great.
Listen, on Telegram this morning, when I woke up, there was a big article from Trump saying about all the lies, about 20 different lies from Joe Biden.
And he's really desperately looking for a new nickname for him at the rally the other day.
He was going, should I go with Crooked Joe, a sleepy Joe?
He already had Crooked Hillary, to be honest with you.
So he said this morning that maybe he should start calling him Lion Joe.
For a while now, I've had a perfect name, I think, Pinocchio Joe.
It rhymes.
And he's so funny.
I think it would be hilarious when he's mentioning the laptop at the debate tomorrow and mentioning about the Russian disinformation or any of this stuff.
Just by on occasion calling him Pinocchio, if he somehow got wind of this nickname a day in advance, I think it would be hilarious.
I don't know how you feel about that.
I think it's very smart and creative.
I kind of like it.
I don't know.
Hopefully President Trump's listening to the show.
If he does say it, you're going to get all the credit for it.
How's that?
We'll see what he does.
Some of these nicknames are hilarious.
They really are.
It's just sad that, you know, Joe can't handle an audience and clapping.
It might distract him too much.
So, you know, of course, it was their way of the highway.
And then they'd say, well, Donald Trump's afraid to debate.
No, so for the first time in modern presidential televised debate history, one candidate has no say on what venue the debate is going to take place, what the rules are, has no say on who the moderators are, and the media doesn't care because as long as it's unfair to Donald Trump, they're happy with it.
You know, just like Mar-a-Lago is not worth $18 million, just like a statute of limitations that had worn out on a legal NDA negotiated by a lawyer and labeled a legal expense should never have been brought and turned into 34 felony charges on a federal level.
It's insane the times we're living in.
Back to our phones.
Connecticut Jerry next.
What's up, Jerry?
Hey, Sean, a longtime listener from back in the days of Hilly and Marty and Frank from Queens.
So it's my privilege.
Oh, wow.
Marty!
We miss Marty.
Marty was a caller, a regular caller to this program for years.
He was one of the brave, brave American soldiers that slammed the beaches of Normandy.
I had a chance to meet him.
He had lost his eye, you know.
I'm not sure if you're aware of that.
And, you know, he passed on a number of years ago.
And what a great man he was.
Never forget, Marty.
Marty.
I'm calling to make, you've got to play that music, the Calliope music, too.
I'm calling to make a point about the debate, but I have to tell you, when I listen to Majorkis and the litany of lies, I have to say, my mother of happy memory, whenever she was confronted with someone who was just bold-faced lying, she would say with a degree of righteous rage, you must be an atheist because any God-fearing person would be afraid God almighty would strike you down dead for the lies and the filth coming out of your mouth.
And when I'm listening to these are consequential lies, right, that Maorkis is telling.
These are lies that are destroying lives.
So I just wanted to give you a mention what my mom used to say when confronted with this level of dishonesty.
By the way, isn't it a shame that we just played Majorkis and the entire administration lying about the border and then all of a sudden, oh, we don't have the capacity.
Therefore, we have to let them into the country when they inherited policies that prevented them from letting him into the country.
And they bragged about getting rid of those policies with a stroke of a pen.
How sad.
How sad 51 former and apparently current Intel officials that knew nothing about a laptop in the weeks leading up to the election would lie to the American people and that the now president Joe Biden lied at the highest level about Hunter's laptop that implicates him and lied that he'd never talked to his son about business.
And nobody in the media points that out either.
They lie all the time.
My jacked up.
And by the way, the inflation is transitory too, but go ahead.
My jacked-up Joe point is this, that it's an old point by now, but a lot of people have said, hey, wait a minute, you can't have it both ways.
You can't, if Joe Biden goes on stage tomorrow and he's energetic and he's engaging and he's articulate and an energetic and engaging and articulate Joe Biden is a Joe Biden that can stand trial for stealing documents as a United States senator and then mishandling them.
But he can have it both ways if you and I and especially the GOP establishment doesn't spend money ahead of time saying, keep an eye on Biden.
If he seems like he can run the country, then you know Robert Hurr lied.
You know that the fix was in, that Biden got away with the same sorts of crimes Trump is accused of because, but again, so there's, you could set a trap for Biden because if he's very articulate and very engaging, aha, you should stand trial.
You stole documents as a senator, which there's no excuse.
And you had them in your garage, which who knows?
Maybe it was a classified documents reading room where you paid money and you got to look at stuff.
But the point is, there's a perfect trap to be set for Biden based on her document and her refusal to prosecute.
But you have to do it ahead of time.
You have to do it ahead of time.
So people look and say, hey, yeah, look at him.
He's pretty sharp.
Then you say, well, then he should be standing trial for what he did as a United States Senator and as a vice president, but especially as a senator, because there's no justification.
You bring up a great argument.
I mean, that is, all right, let's say hypercaffeinated, jacked up, Joe, more alert, Joe, not cognitively impaired.
Joe shows up tomorrow, which I fully expect.
And we have a poll on, we've had a poll on Hannity.com about that question.
We'll put a new poll question up today.
And yeah, then that would basically blow out of the water Robert Hurz.
Well, he came across as a very nice man that didn't remember he was vice president in 2009 or when his son died, and would come across to a jury that way as a nice, forgetful old man that probably wouldn't be convicted.
Well, if he comes off as super alert and aware, then maybe that Joe can show up in court and that he can get the same equal justice and equal application of the laws that they have used against Donald Trump in the document case.
Because we have two very different systems of justice, don't we?
One for Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, and one for Donald Trump.
And that's the America we live in.
That's why 131 days from now, 82 days till early voting, that's why this matters.
Anyway, really good call.
Jerry, we appreciate it, buddy.
800.
God bless you.
800-941 Sean, God bless Marty, too.
Been a while.
One day we have to go back and play Marty again and some highlights from good old Marty.
Welcome back, Congressman Jim Jordan, Congressman Turner.
Mike Turner will be with us.
The Intelligence Community 51, how CIA contractors colluded with the Biden campaign to mislead American voters.
By the way, here are media Democrats lying about the Hunter laptop.
I think it's broadly known and widely known, Peter, that there was a broad range of Russian disinformation.
Does it surprise you at all that this information Rudy Giuliani is peddling very well could be connected to some sort of Russian government disinformation campaign?
Well, we know that this whole smear on Joe Biden comes from the Kremlin.
That's been clear for well over a year now.
This classic textbook, Soviet Russian tradecraft at work.
Looks like a classic Russian playbook disinformation campaign.
The U.S. authorities are seeing if those emails we just talked about are connected to an ongoing Russian disinformation effort.
It is so obviously a Russian operation.
Hunter Biden, this laptop that intelligence officials have warned is likely Russian disinformation.
For all we know, these emails are made up, or maybe some are real and others are fakes.
We don't know.
