You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the Political Cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, going across the South and worldwide, as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the Political Cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the second hour of the political cesspool for February 27th, 2016.
I'm in studio holding down the fort.
I'm Sam Bushman, James Edwards, your humble talk show host, live in Memphis, Tennessee at an airport hangar.
Donald Trump just spoke.
Chris Christie endorsed Trump and opened for him.
It was an absolute crowd.
Trump said 15,000 people.
My personal guess from what I'm reading, closer to 10,000, but nevertheless, standing room only James is live there now, James.
All right, I said that again, Sam.
I've been doing the last few minutes during the long top of the hour break.
We had, I don't know, about three or four fans of the festival come over.
They found me doing a little bit of the Donald Trump frequency myself, I guess, taking some pictures.
And people coming over and asking for pictures.
But I can tell you right now, what I'm seeing, the Trump plane is pulling away.
The wheels are moving, and the Trump plane is heading back out to the runway.
Still several hundred people here.
A bigger crowd here right now to watch Trump's plane leave half an hour, 45 minutes after he wrapped up his remarks than there were for John Kasich during the heart of his speech last night.
Of course, Kasich isn't presumed to be a frontrunner, but it just goes to show you the contrast and what the people, which way they're going in terms of their support.
But it's all over but the shooting now, I guess you could say.
The Trump plane, I am watching it at this very moment, exit taxi out to the runway.
It will, in probably just a couple of minutes' time, be barreling down the third longest runway in the state of Tennessee right here in Millington at this regional airport.
That was surprising when I read that.
And isn't Millington the town that has the tower of the flagship station for the political cesspool as well?
We moved to 1600.
AM 1600 and AM 1380 are sister stations.
And we've been on both of those stations.
But yes, AM 1380 is here in Millington.
AM 1600 is the bigger of the two, and that is in another part of town.
But yes, we've done a lot of hours of radio in Billington, Tennessee.
Probably about a five-minute drive.
That studio is about a five-minute drive from where we are right now.
And I spent a lot of nights in that city.
So, James, as you unwind and watch the plane take off and everything else, there's still several hundred people milling around well after the fact, 45 minutes after the speech ended.
What are your decompressed thoughts on the whole event?
Are you glad you went?
Did it measure up?
What do you think?
Well, I think it did.
I don't think I got the full experience that a normal spectator would because of the overlapping time that he was speaking and that we went on the air.
I got to hear him for about 10 minutes before we went live.
And so obviously at that point, I was distracted and couldn't take it in as a run-of-the-mill observer.
But I will tell you this, it's decompressing.
To have been here and to cover this event in my hometown as a member of the press has been phenomenal.
And again, for people who tune in to this particular radio program to hear us address certain so-called taboo issues that the rest of the media either doesn't cover at all or lies about.
For us, to be here in the fifth things is something that political cesspoolists and supporters of your network, Sam, should take a lot of pride in.
Folks, your support has enabled us to do the things that we've done over the course of the last 11 years.
And of course, the most recent of those accomplishments and victories is to be here tonight and to have the opportunity to call into the studio live and tell you what we're seeing.
I think that is every bit with one billionth of the budget of Fox News and CNN.
We are here, and every bit is legit and doing every bit as good a job of giving you painting the scene tonight as anyone.
You know what I find fascinating, James?
It's amazing.
Three different Trump rallies over the last six months have been attended by Liberty News Radio staff.
Tim Starks was there when he went to Illinois.
The Copperhead was there when he went to Arkansas.
You, the Bombardier, and Keith Alexander there when he comes to Memphis, Tennessee.
We've had as good a coverage as anybody and really reporting it from a fair perspective.
Not a hate Trump message, not an over-the-top, we love Trump no matter what he does, but a fair-minded, conservative message, giving Trump a fair chance to tell his story.
Nobody else does that.
We've done it everywhere.
Well, Sam, what this radio network and this program has been able to do, not just tonight, but let's look back on a couple of very recent occurrences.
Earlier this year in January, on this network, on this program, you were able to call in from Burns Org.
And this was the first network to go live with a breakdown of what was developing there.
And I don't know if you can hear it, but the engines are, you probably can't hear this, but you couldn't hear the roar of the crowd a few minutes ago, but the engines are ready.
Hold on, just be quiet for a quick second.
Let's see if we can hear it.
Trump right now is back in the air.
The plane has just lifted off and it is off the ground.
And he is on his way to his next stop.
He'll be in Alabama tomorrow.
He'll be in Georgia later this week, all before Super Tuesday.
Wow.
He's still got several stops.
I think about a half a dozen, between four and six stops before voting ends on Tuesday.
So he's been very busy here.
This is a man who really wants to win.
I mean, he's 69 years old.
This is a grueling schedule to make multiple stops in multiple states every day underneath the relentless attack from the establishment press and Pope and everybody else.
You can imagine that takes some stamina, the likes of which I can't relate.
I don't have that kind of stamina.
And I'm a pretty tough guy.
And I sleep very little because I'm always working and I've got a young family.
But this is, he's a beast.
All right.
There's a lot of things going on in the Trump campaign and the campaigns of others that we need to break down too.
Now that the plane took off, it looks like the crowd will be scattering relatively quickly.
We've got a lot of political cesspool left to break it on down.
But Trump has been in kind of a battle with just about everyone.
And every time he does so, he seems to come out on top.
He had a battle with Glenn Beck this last week.
Glenn Beck was stumping for Ted Cruz and was given a speech.
And Donald Trump upstaged Glenn Beck at the speech.
Did you hear about that, James?
I did.
Not only did I hear about it, Sam.
I watched it when it was happening.
And then, of course, tune in your coverage of it on Liberty Roundtable.
That was.
I mean, talk about one-uping somebody.
That literally, and Glenn Beckett's upside, I mean, he's got to be mentally unstable.
And I don't just say that because I don't much like him or agree with him.
But anyway, it's a mental instability with somebody that cries as much as he does for a grown man.
But he's been after Trump really hard.
And Trump got him in that exchange, no doubt about it.
Now, Trump was asked about it on Fox and Friends, and they asked, did you do this on purpose, Donald?
Donald said, no.
I didn't do it on purpose.
But I'm convinced it was timed so perfectly that it had to be on purpose.
We'll take a quick break, come back, I'll play you the sound bite.

And now, back to tonight's show.
All right, Trump having a battle with everybody, ladies and gentlemen.
It seems, but every time he has a skirmish, he comes out on top.
Donald Trump was just live in Memphis, Tennessee.
The political success pool staff in Tennessee live at the event right now.
Before we get to that, though, Beck was asked, I'm sorry, Trump was asked on Fox and Friends what he thought about the Beck thing.
Was it done on purpose or not?
He said, no, I didn't do it on purpose.
I wouldn't do that to Glenn.
But here's what Trump had to say about upstaging Glenn Beck.
Glenn Beck was speaking in behalf of Ted Cruz for his campaign, and Trump upstaged.
Here's what Trump had to say about it when asked.
Glenn Beck was at a caucus site in Nevada yesterday.
He was speaking on behalf of Ted Cruz.
And then you showed up and wound up making your pitch for the people there who were at the caucus site to vote for you.
Did you know Glenn Beck was there?
And did you do that on purpose?
No, I didn't.
But when I walked in, I saw he was in the podium and there were thousands of people in the room.
Not too many people listening to him.
He's not a very good guy to listen to, frankly.
He's boring.
And so when I walked in, everybody saw me.
The place went crazy.
They all ran away from him, his whole crowd.
And he was standing up there talking to nobody.
And he steamed out of the room.
And I didn't do it on purpose, but I happened to be there.
And we had such, I'll bet you 95% of the people in that room in that particular area were with us.
You know, we finished so high.
But I didn't do that on purpose.
I wouldn't want to do that.
All right.
Now, the funny thing about it is Glenn Beck then wrote back his response and said there wasn't thousands of people.
Trump's a liar.
There was hundreds of people.
Glenn Beck just said, I politely let Trump do his belligerent thing.
And then I stood there and shook hands with people in the crowd and I didn't leave the room.
I hung out and Trump's lying.
And that battle sits on, what, Tinder ready for the next spark, I guess you could say.
Meanwhile, James Edwards, live in Memphis, Tennessee, post-Trump rally at a hangar in Memphis.
James?
Well, there's not even Secret Service left.
I thought they were here to protect the press or to protect me.
Apparently, they weren't here for me at all.
It is down.
I see an empty wine bottle here on the floor.
A little bit of debris.
It was a party, though, I'm telling you.
A little bit of security left, local law enforcement, it looks like.
And the Cube reporter from MSNBC.
You got to walk up to the local law enforcement and see if they're for Trump.
I can bet you they are.
It'll be interesting to see.
I can certainly bet you they are.
But I want to get Matt the Copperhead on.
He has been waiting patiently.
I didn't know exactly how this show was going to go.
I was going to be able to get a reception in here on my phone if it was going to be able to broadcast.
But it seemingly went off without a charm.
And now I'm in this abandoned cavern.
Things have changed since we first went on the air.
But Matt the Copperhead.
All right, why don't you try to talk to the cops and see what they say about being for Trump?
I'll chat with the Copperhead.
All right, I'm going to go chat up a few law enforcement officers while the Copperhead talks to you.
Copperhead's going to tell you what he saw, what it was like to be here in his own words.
And he had a little better view of what happened with the protester than I did.
But here we go.
Hello, Matt.
Welcome.
How are you doing?
It's Matt the Copperhead.
We're live from Memphis Saturday night.
Excellent, sir.
How was it?
Did you enjoy it?
I really did.
It was tons of energy.
It was a positive vibe all around.
I mean, if you want to talk about diversity, this crowd was diverse.
There was people of all ethnicities.
There was working class.
The guy in front of me, a union electrician, okay?
White guy that was working class just like me.
He's out, never voted Republican before.
He's a self-proclaimed atheist.
He's here for Trump.
Why?
Because it's all the message that is going in the same direction.
We've got to turn this country around.
We have to make this place great again, and we've got to start it with when you have a flood, you have to build a barrier that's going to stop that flood.
Just like in the Midwest, when you see the lines of people with the sandbags trying to stop the floodwaters from getting to the house, it's the same principle here, Sam.
Fascinating.
Now, how many people would you guess were in the crowd?
Donald tried to say there was about 15,000.
Did he exaggerate?
15,000.
You actually heard 15,000.
You know, we were not in the best, we were in the back.
We really couldn't see the full surroundings.
I would say that might have been a little bit of a stretch.
There were more than 5,000 people there?
Oh, yeah, without a doubt.
Without a doubt.
Without a doubt, more than five, less than 15.
My best estimates from what I can read and everything else about 10,000 people, sir.
Yeah, that's more likely.
That's more likely.
All right.
What did you think, though, about his speech and what he said?
What do you think about Chris Christie endorsing Trump and Chris Christie opening for Trump?
I'm a fan of the Krispy Kreme.
I'll be honest with you.
I was on the GW bridge that night, sat for five hours after doing a 75-hour shift at a hospital.
You know, not for nothing.
Like we say back up north, you know, just he's really, you know, he's not my particular candidate that I'd like to see.
But, you know, if it gets us to the promised land of a border that's enforceable, start repatriating people that don't belong here, you know, that might be a little give and take.
All right.
What do you think about Trump's speech?
Good speech.
You know, he does a lot of his stuff is being repetitive when he goes from one place to the next.
Kind of a shtick now.
But it's, you know, he's talking about stuff that hits people like me.
Now he mentioned, just like, remember when Joe Biden said the third world and LaGuardia Airport in the same sentence, it resonates.
Because we've got the largest city in the United States, our biggest international city is New York.
If you're flying domestic, you go into a little island like a postage stamp.
It's right next to Rikers Island.
You know, and you honestly think it's a third world.
You go, you get your bags.
You want to jump in a cab.
You're talking to a third worlder, you know, who's been here probably 10 years and can't even get you within the interboroughs, only Manhattan.
He'll know.
Everything else, you've got to direct him step by step.
That's ridiculous.
You know, you go on a goal.
Now you arrive at Lawadia Airport, you check in, you're going to have a third worlder checking you in.
Before you even get to the TSA, you have some gal from the Punjab that's going to want to see your ID before you can even let the TSA see your ID.
It's ridiculous.
It's out of control.
All right.
Now, you have been to more than one Trump rally, right?
Yeah, this was my second rally.
The first one was in Little Rock.
And I tell you, Little Rock, maybe it's the venue.
It had a little more of a bite to it, you know.
But this one had something special.
You had a lot of protesters.
Not so many as the Little Rock.
But you kind of had a few people that wanted to cause an annoyance and they were dealt with rather quickly also.
What rally was better?
Which one was bigger?
Just different.
Better, bigger, you know.
It's the same message.
It resonates with the same and different people.
He's picking up people every day, Sam.
He's picking up the blacks here, Latinos.
He's picking up so many different people that see it, that need to see it, because let's face the facts here, blacks are continually getting marginalized by the Hispanics.
They're losing jobs.
They're losing political influence.
Their day is waning, and they're seeing it.
So when we hear that Trump's winning in every category, that's exactly what you're seeing on the ground.
Absolutely.
Boots on the ground, that's exactly what I'm seeing.
All right.
Any concerns about Trump?
Concerns?
I mean, to me, he speaks for me.
I know a lot of people are hung up on a lot of his personal life choices, and, you know, that's where this ends for me.
That's his personal life.
You know, someone once said, a great man once said, you know, don't cast the first stone.
And that's kind of where I'm at with that.
All right.
So you're just saying, hey, leave his personal life to his personal life.
Now they're trying everything they can to pull out all the stops to attack Donald Trump.
They're getting desperate big time.
One of the things they're doing is they're bringing out the tapes when Donald Trump was on the Howard Stern show over and over and over over the decades.
And they say he's demeaning to women and everything else to try and now pit Trump against Hillary.
Demeaning the women.
How many women did he put up?
He gave jobs to, first of all, an employee, gave health care, you know, put women, all beautiful women from all over the world, put them on stage and let them show their talents, you know, in beauty pageants, you know, on his shows, the apprentice.
I mean, yeah, sing me another song with demeaning to women, please.
All right.
The Copperhead.
Thanks so much, sir.
Back in seconds.
Back in seconds with James Edwards.
We got a quick pause.
You are listening to the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
Pursuing Liberty.
Using the Constitution as our guide.
You're listening to Liberty News Radio.
Listen, do you hear that sound?
It started low, but it's getting progressively louder, into a crescendo, even louder, irresistible, ending in an ear-splitting blast of mass disruption.
That's the sound of America's economic and political systems crashing to the ground.
But we have a plan.
We will be ready to restore political sanity.
We will be ready to answer the call of productive America.
We will restore America's industrial base and put America back to work.
We will shut down political correctness and restore decency and positive media to America.
We will save our Constitution, our traditional way of life, our customs, and religion.
We will restore sound money and crush the debt-based system of monetary slavery.
And we will end America's foreign misadventures.
We are the American Freedom Party, and we have a plan.
Learn more about us, the AmericanFreedomParty.us.
We are calling all Christians to join the solemn cause to make America great again.
Donald Trump has been called of God to lead our people away from the destructive course we have traveled for the last 50 years.
It is important for all Christians to recognize God's hand in the future course of this nation and the vessels that he uses to accomplish his purposes.
Galatians tells us that one who is taught the word must share it with the one who teaches.
We must share the word with Donald Trump.
We must influence Donald Trump.

The Occidental Quarterly fills a unique niche in bringing together scholarly articles on a wide range of topics that are mired in political correctness elsewhere.
It is edited by Professor Kevin McDonald, who's no stranger to listeners at the political cesspool.
There are quite a few reasons for the precarious state of our civilization and our people, but one of the main ones is that we have lost the intellectual and moral high ground to a cultural elite that is hostile to our people and our culture.
Those of us who are politically aware must understand that the elites dominating culture and the political process in the West are intellectually and morally bankrupt.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, I had James Edwards with me.
The problem is he went to the concession stand and he got tempted by one of those doggone Canadian bacon burgers from Ted Cruz, but no, he remained true.
He got one of them all-American hamburgers from Donald Trump instead.
He's chowing down on that burger and Keith Alexander has the floor.
Welcome, sir.
Well, thanks, Sam.
It was a great event.
How many people do you think were there?
I'd say over 10,000.
It was in the last five minutes, it was about half pack.
And when he actually got started, it was absolutely filled to the rafters.
What do you think of his speech?
Was it substantive?
Well, you know, it's not as substantive as, you know, we're used to on this show, but he did hit the two things that are the most important features of his campaign.
One is immigration.
Basically, if you're not going to build the wall, and he's more or less said this, then you're just blowing smoke about immigration.
You don't really intend to do anything about it.
When all is said and done, more will be said than done.
He reiterated that he's going to build the fence.
I mean, build the wall.
He's going to build it 10 feet higher.
He's going to make the Mexicans pay for it.
And he said, hide and watch, you know, if you don't believe me.
Then the second thing is he is actually going to level tariffs.
He said 35% on American companies that have outsourced work and clothes plants in America.
And he mentioned Carrier specifically, and he mentioned some others, I think United Technology and Pfizer and people like this.
So he's, you know, so much for the charge, he has no specific plan.
He plans to do that.
And I also have heard him before, he didn't say it tonight, that what he'll do is use that tariff money to reduce the corporate income tax to the point that we have the lowest corporate income tax in the world.
And that will cause foreign manufacturers who want access to our, you know, our economy, which is the largest consumer economy in the world, to move their manufacturing plans to America.
Now, Matt is, you know, saying we want union jobs.
Well, I'm afraid that most of these plants are going to be located in right-to-work states if they are drawn back.
Of course they are.
And, of course, that's not right-to-work means that the union doesn't have a lock on it.
The only thing that unions have a lock on now are federal projects due to the Davis-Bacon Act and in some municipalities, some municipal projects.
But unions, even without unions, manufacturing jobs typically pay twice as much as a comparable service sector job.
Plus, the service sector job has no benefits.
And the union job, I mean, the manufacturing job typically has at least a modicum of employee benefits, like health insurance, for example.
So even when mom and dad both work in a service sector job, they can't make as much as what one of them would make if they were working in a manufacturing job.
Those manufacturing jobs are the key to widespread American prosperity and the growing of the middle class.
Trump understands that Trump says that we're going to win.
He's put it like we're losing because we have incompetent people doing their negotiating for the United States.
It's not that, these people are in the tank.
They've been bought off.
The elites in big business and the elites in big government have gotten together and they've basically sold out the American worker.
I think he knows this.
He doesn't want to put it in those blunted terms, but it doesn't matter.
The result is going to be the same.
And he hit those chords loud and clear tonight.
And I can tell you the crowd, for example, I've been to a lot of political rallies and I've been to some presidential rallies.
This is not the typical Republican rally.
This has a lot of people that you wouldn't see normally at a Republican rally.
In fact, it kind of looks like the Mid-South Fair when you go to that.
I mean, you've got working class people there and they were loud and vocal and they were animated by the speech.
So see, this is Donald Trump is doing what the watch at the Heritage Foundation and the Weekly Standard and the National Review have been saying needs to be done.
But of course, their way of growing the party is to let every minority in pander to them and sell out the traditional base of the Republican Party, which is white people.
Donald Trump is growing the party by getting the Reagan Democrats and people that have basically been turned off and disillusioned by the repeated failures of the Republican Party and is drawing them back in.
And he's putting into play states that have typically been Democratic strongholds, blue states, you know, New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Ohio.
All of these big states with big electoral vote counts are now in play if Donald Trump becomes the Republican nominee.
And absent dirty tricks on an unprecedented scale, that's going to be the result.
I predict that he's going to sweep Super Tuesday, this coming Tuesday.
I think he's going to sweep every state at the, you know, the next big one, which includes Texas.
Texas, they're trying to say, is in cruise's column slightly now.
Well, they're wrong on everything.
I don't see how these guys, these talking heads and prognosticators and news analysts with Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, keep their jobs because they are wrong every time.
Carl Roe is up here sweating even more than Marco Rubio.
So was a guy named Steve Hayes for the Weekly Standard.
These people get everything wrong, but they keep trotting them out and they keep making these dire predictions that never come true.
They've had Trump dead and buried probably about 12 times already in the news cycle since this political nominating process began.
And Trump is just defying them that they are showing how little they know about politics.
Now, it's kind of fascinating to me when we look at Trump, we look at his growth, his appeal.
On one hand, we say that his speech might be brought down to the level of the average person or the average worker.
In other words, his language may not be as elevated as some of the attorneys and et cetera, some of the eloquent speakers, but he resonates with people because he says what they want to hear.
Number one.
Number two, even though his speech may not be elevated, Keith, and I want to make this point and then let you roll, even though his speech might be elevated, the concepts of which he stands for are this idea that we've got to protect our borders, this idea that we've got to reduce taxes, this idea that we've got to put tariffs at the borders.
Everybody gets that, no matter how smart or maybe not you are, right?
Well, it's even more fundamental than that.
He's not just going to protect our borders and our job.
He's going to protect our people, the majority, the average citizen of the United States.
There was a black woman who was kind of frail looking, kind of looked like a Rose of Parks type, and her son in front of me.
And she was hanging on every word because she got it.
She understood that what Trump intends to do is to protect Americans, and she's an American, and she'll be better off with Trump in there than she will with Hillary or Bernie Sanders.
And I saw more black people at this than I, you know, typically see that it was vastly white.
But on the other hand, there were a lot of blacks there, and these were not token blacks that were there, you know, trying to promote their political careers to be there.
These were average, everyday folk who were animated by the Trump message.
It's also fascinating.
Trump's got a very strange relationship with women.
And as he becomes the front runner, likely the nominee, he's going to probably end up battling with Hillary over that very issue, huh?
Yeah.
Well, see, the thing about Trump is he is an alpha male.
And women like alpha males, despite their protests to the contrary, they are attracted to him.
There were a lot of women in this crowd, and you could tell the women just were digging Donald Trump.
You know, he's not pandering to them.
He's not giving all these mealy-mouthed pacifications to feminism and talking about his solidarity with Gloria Steinem or something like this.
He's a no-nonsense, strong man who has money.
I mean, this is what all the women out there are looking for in a husband candidate, okay?
So this, you know, Donald Trump, they love it.
They love having an alpha male in the race, and they love having somebody that can dress down people like Marco Rubio, who Ann Coltago Day called the Pool Boys, that he looked like he was headed to a phone party after the debates.
And, you know, all these other, you know, Lindsey Graham, for heaven's sakes.
Well, look at all these people aren't just beta males.
They're Lamba, Gamma, Omega males far down the totem pole.
And quite frankly, these girly men are, you know, such a contrast to Trump.
That is another big part, a subliminal part of Trump's appeal.
He's a manly man.
Now, it's interesting.
Trump said of himself, he either brings out the best or the worst in women.
He doesn't know why.
That's what he wrote in his memoirs, The Art of the Comeback.
We'll talk about that.
Keith, we want you to stay another segment.
Can you do it?
I can do it.
All right, we're going to talk about this phenomenon a little bit more, talking about Trump, talking about what's going to happen, talk about the future.
You are listening to the political says, Paul James has just eaten a second cheeseburger.
At least he picked the American cheeseburger again, though.
Didn't pick that, you know, bacon Canadian thing.
All right, hold on.
Scott Bradley here.
Most Americans are painfully aware that the nation is on the wrong track and in dire straits.
Unfortunately, most political pundits only nibble around the edges when they claim to address the issues.
Even worse, many of the so-called solutions are simply rewarmed servings of what got us into the mess we currently face.
And the politicians think we're so gullible and naive that we'll buy their lies that they have reformed and now understand where they led us astray.
Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that they simply wish to continue to hold power.
The solution to America's challenges is found in returning to the timeless principles found in the United States Constitution.
My book and lecture series will reawaken in Americans an understanding and love of the principles which made this nation the freest, most prosperous, happiest, and most respected nation on earth.

All right, if we're going to consider the Trump the front runner, many people are.
Many people are wondering still, but you know what?
Rubio is melting down.
Ted Cruz, I don't know if he can even win in Texas.
Rubio can't win in Florida, probably.
Time will tell.
If they do, it'll be a squeaker win at best.
A one-squeaker-win state in their own home territory won't carry the game, that's for sure.
It'll probably be the Donald against Hillary.
What do you say, Keith?
I believe you're right.
I know that the political class is very desperately anxious about having Donald Trump as the frontrunner because all of the cozy relationships and deals will be off.
Bill Bennett, the former Secretary of Health, has a radio show now, and he wrote an article.
He basically thinks that they're going to try to do some type of black ops thing against Donald Trump because they just can't stand to have somebody like that in charge of all those levers of power.
Think of Hillary getting prosecuted for Benghazi for 32,000 lost emails for $6 million missing from the coffers of the State Department under her tenure.
And that's just the beginning of it.
There's so many watches.
Basically, the whole upper management, the IRS, could wind up in jail if he got a like-minded attorney general in there that really wanted to vigorously prosecute things.
So that type of reality, that's something that the normal voter doesn't think about.
But these political insiders definitely do.
They've been milking the government cow through the fence for a long time.
And if they get, you know, the little boy that tells the emperor he has no clothes come in there, it could really upset the apple cart.
So I think that that is, you know, something, I think that's not going to happen.
I think that I certainly hope and pray it doesn't happen.
And if it doesn't happen, you know, Rubio and Cruz, if they had tried this strategy two months ago to go after Trump like this, it may have had an effect.
But now it's just too little and too late.
I don't think it's going to have any effect.
I think that Trump, as long as he keeps up a brave face in the front, you know, even when Rubio and Cruz score points, the fact that Trump is always on the offensive, it's like a prize fight.
You know, you get points for aggressiveness.
And Trump is not being hurt.
He's already formed this bond with his supporters.
And that bond is unshakable.
And they're going to give him a try.
They're going to give him a wall because the others, we know that nothing is going to change if we put a Cruz or Rubio or a Kasich in.
Carson might be well-intentioned, but he has no idea of how to get things done.
Donald Trump obviously knows how to get things done in a hostile environment, or else he wouldn't be a billionaire 10 times over.
Where do we go from here?
What do you think is going to happen next?
You think it's just going to be big crowds everywhere?
Or do you think there's going to be a shake-up in the campaigns?
Do you think the Republicans are going to force a brokered convention?
What do you think is going to happen?
Well, if they do that, it's going to be like the election of 1824 where Henry Clay, the first sellout Southerner and the Whig candidate, transferred his electors to John Quincy Adams, Federalist candidate, to defeat the guy that had the most votes, which was Andrew Jackson.
Andrew Jackson was so incentive.
Andrew Jackson, quite frankly, had a personality very similar to Donald Trump's, and you didn't cross him.
And he was a guy that wasn't afraid to fight.
You know, he fought duels with people.
And, you know, back then, it was a dangerous world in which to impugn a man's honor.
And I think that if the Trump would have fit right in back in those days.
So I think what's going to happen is that none of these guys are going to mount a good challenge.
And if they try to broker the convention and give it to somebody in the mainstream, the 1824 election resulted in the death of the Federalist Party.
If the Republicans try that and try to deny Trump what is obviously his view, I think it will spell the end, the breakup of the Republican Party.
Now, Trump has been friends with a lot of people in high places.
His friendship with Chris Christie, documented by Chris just recently as he joined the campaign.
How's that going to serve Trump?
I mean, he's been friends with the Clintons, friends with all kinds of people, and the more they attack him, the tougher it is for them being lifelong friends.
At some point, many of these people pretend they're not for Trump, but they'll be forced to capitulate, won't they?
Well, a lot of these people that want to continue to have a career in politics are going to pull a Christie and start finding their inner Trump supporter.
At least they're going to want to.
They're going to want to get on the love train with Trump because they want to be with the winner.
I could tell it was just palpable.
If you saw Christie's face, what a difference it must be from going to his sparsely attended meetings and rallies to suddenly find himself in the middle of this spontaneous happening with over 10,000 people present in a hangar.
You know, the hanger was picked because it's the home district of a guy named Terry Rowland, a kind of local populist politician in the Memphis area who represents Millington.
And he brought him to Millington because he's the head delegate and the head of the Shelby County delegation for Trump here.
So he brought him in.
He was the first speaker.
Then Christie came in, and Christie's eyes got as big as a pair of, you know, tea saucers when he saw the crowd.
He could not believe it.
And, you know, you could tell how animated this made him.
So he knows he's made the right decision.
I don't think the same dispensation will be given to a Jeb Bush or to a Marco Rubio or a Ted Cruz.
I'm hoping that he doesn't want to appoint somebody like Christie as the Attorney General.
I hope he gets a real fire eater for that.
And I hope that he puts his vice presidential pick is Pat Buchanan because he's the guy that has the intellectual heft to support all of Trump's natural native instincts.
And Buchanan has been 100% in his corner.
And for the Supreme Court to replace Scalia, I think you couldn't come up with a better choice than Ann Coulter.
Of course, she's not a judge, but then on the other hand, she was a lawyer.
She was the editor-in-chief of the University of Michigan Law Review.
And I think she has all the legal smarts necessary to, you know, basically carry on the work of Anthony Scalia on the Supreme Court.
We need someone that strong or stronger.
And if anything, she has even a more pointed rapier-like wit than even Scalia.
And she can make things very uncomfortable for the liberals on the court.
She'll make them laughing stocks.
She is great at doing that.
So, you know, I'm just, that's really a result I would pray for is that Ann Coulter be nominated for the Supreme Court and that Pat Buchanan be chosen as vice presidential candidate.
Now the best of all possible resolutions of those two issues.
Do you think a deal was cut giving Chris Christie a position, or do you think it was a genuine endorsement?
Well, they had to meet for a day before.
And, you know, quite frankly, that's just, you know, that type of log rolling is typical in political circles.
Now, whether Trump will go through with it, I don't know.
I'm sure he'll give something to Christie.
But whether it's Attorney General, I don't know.
But if it's, you know, we need an attorney general that is going to take off the gloves and go after the miscreants that have been in there that have been abusing their public trust over the past basically 50 years, ever since the days of Reagan.
You know, see, here's what I fear.
Reagan got George H.W. Bush through just this type of, you know, process.
The establishment held their nose at this mere actor that went to someplace like Eureka College, where in the world is that, in Illinois, winning their nomination.
And they basically were threatening a broker convention and trying to take it away from him unless he picked one of the establishment boys for vice president.
And he picked George H.W. Bush.
Well, after Reagan served out his second term and couldn't run anymore, George H.W. Bush did just what they planned.
He stepped in as president.
And the first thing he did was pronounce that under his regime, there would be a kinder, gentler America, basically distancing himself from the full-body or at least relatively full-body conservatism of Ronald Reagan and said that, you know, this is back to, you know, more pandering to the left, more pandering to minorities and whatnot.
And as a result, George H.W. Bush became a one-term president, even though under his tenure, America won a war with Iraq.
Of course, at the time, I wondered why America didn't finish off Saddam Hussein.
I can find, I know now, it's because, quite frankly, Saddam Hussein was a better leader for the interests of a lot of client states of America than anyone that is allowed to step up in his place.
As you've seen, we've had, you know, you could name Saddam Hussein as a head of Iraq.
Can you name any of the subsequent heads of the Iraqi state?
You can't because they were, you know, basically puppets propped up by America.
And when America's support backed off a little bit, these people just, you know, disappeared into oblivion.
Who knows what happened to them?
But that's it.
All right, Keith, my friend, we sure appreciate it, sir.
Godspeed.
We're going to join James.
I guess he's done with his cheeseburgers now.
So next hour, James will start out the hour and we'll go from there.
He's probably in a diabetic coma after that many cheeseburgers, Sam.
But they're American cheeseburgers for Trump, sir, so it's all right.
