They literally have no sense of humor, particularly about themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Al Smith dinner last night. In that room was the New York establishment and the elites. They all must have been wearing corsets and whatever else to constrain movement. I never saw a bigger group of uptight people in my life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My instincts never fail me. The Democrats strategic goal is all about deflating you, demoralizing you, depressing you, suppressing you. And it\u2019s created the infighting. We\u2019ve got factions at war with each other. We\u2019ve got conservatives saying vicious things about other conservatives that they never even say about Democrats.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Pessimism and negativity are easy. It doesn\u2019t take any work to be pessimistic. It doesn\u2019t take any work to fail, but success and optimism require applied effort.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I maintain to you that the establishment, whoever they are, whatever you want to call \u2019em, this degree of panic and fear that they are obviously facing over Trump and his claim to wait \u2019til the election to actually decide whether he\u2019s gonna contest it, this is irrational.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You must realize that we don\u2019t have a media. We call it the media, but that\u2019s not what they do. It is not who they are.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If the Democrats had been around in the 1700s we\u2019d have never had a revolution. They would have never tolerated the Founding Fathers\u2019 objections to King George. They would have wanted to put in jail people like James Madison and Patrick Henry because they dared speak out against the establishment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Trump and Clinton tight race Ohio. Trump and Clinton tight race Florida. Trump and Clinton tight race Pennsylvania. Trump and Clinton tight race Colorado. Trump and Clinton tight race Georgia. Polls: Hillary wins in a landslide by 15. What doesn\u2019t work here?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Something Trump didn\u2019t say is being reported as something he did say, and, furthermore, something that he really means, to the point they\u2019re trying to convince people that Trump might go so far as to mount a coup if he loses. It\u2019s hysteria beyond any boundaries of reality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I toy with the media all the time. I sometimes even tell you in advance when gonna tweak the media here. I can do it any time I want. They fall for it. Even when they know I\u2019m gonna do it, I can make \u2019em freak out and go get the vapors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Democrats constantly engage in the very behavior they accuse Trump of engaging in. They\u2019re out alleging that this was fraudulent, that was cheated from them, that was taken away from them as though they are somehow the paragons of virtue in all this. It\u2019s laughable.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Democrats stand in the way of every idea to take fraud out of elections. Every great idea to remove fraud from elections, they oppose it. Photo IDs, purging the voter rolls of people who\u2019ve passed away. It\u2019s the Democrats who stand in the way, &#8216;No, no, no, no, no, no, you can\u2019t take dead people off the rolls.\u2019 Why not?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The elites keep telling us it isn\u2019t possible, that Trump\u2019s foolish, that Trump\u2019s paranoid, that Trump\u2019s a nutcase, that Trump needs to be in a straitjacket in an insane asylum in a padded cell. You can\u2019t rig elections. And yet here\u2019s Reuters, Obama and Hillary are really worried the Russians might leak documents purporting to claim that the Democrats have engaged in fraud. Maybe the cover story is getting out early for what they really plan to do to discredit it before it happens.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let me ask you this question. The polling data all shows Trump losing in a landslide, right? So what happens if Trump wins? Do you think they\u2019re just get sit there and accept it for the honor of the tradition of accepting the election results? Folks, there will be rioting election night, and we will witness the dignified and accepting tradition of going with the outcome of an election as we have come to expect.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If it is apparently so easy for the Russians to hack the DNC server and so easy for the Russians to hack John Podesta\u2019s email, why didn\u2019t Hillary use a secure server when at the State Department? Why did she use one of these basement homebrew jobs if the Russians are so damn good at hacking everything? It doesn\u2019t seem like she cared much back then, but now the Russians are responsible for it all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Folks, they never boo at this dinner. The reason they are booing is because Trump didn\u2019t follow protocol. He came in there and campaigned. And you\u2019re not supposed to do that at this dinner. You\u2019re supposed to make fun of yourself and tell everybody in there, particularly if you\u2019re the Republican, what a joke you are, and he didn\u2019t do it. He got booed &#8212; and I bet it was an honor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why do I feel like this election\u2019s just beginning?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Over the course of my career, as you people well know, I\u2019ve found myself in certain circumstances where I\u2019ve been roundly criticized, called all kinds of names, racist, sexist, insensitive and so forth, all because we have arrived at a moment in our nation\u2019s cultural evolution where people on the left simply cannot laugh.
