A war veteran who had such disdain for his own country he threw his fake medals over a fence at the White House. You couldn\u2019t have a greater and more stark difference in where this country is headed versus where it has been going.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do not doubt for a moment that Donald Trump has an agenda, and do not doubt for a moment that Trump expects to move this agenda at a faster rate than agendas have ever been moved in our lifetimes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m shocked when people claim they find out I\u2019m a nice guy.&nbsp; It doesn\u2019t make any sense. I\u2019m a nice guy every day, and I\u2019ve been a nice guy for 30 years on this program. Maybe not to the left, but just in terms of my behavior and comportment, I\u2019m a nice guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8221;Donald Trump is picking people who have demonstrated success in areas where he is putting them. He is picking people who are independently intelligent. They are not yes-men. They are can-do, have-done, and &#8216;we\u2019ll continue to do it\u2019 kind of people. When I say that not one of these people is a donor and that Trump isn\u2019t returning favors, another way of saying that is: This isn\u2019t about politics.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve known Donald Trump for years. I have never been frightened by one thought or thing of Donald Trump, and yet listening to people who don\u2019t know him but should have some measure of common sense about the guy, he\u2019s lived his life, and he\u2019s not done all these horrible things people say he\u2019s capable of.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;DiCaprio is an ignoramus. He doesn\u2019t even know what he\u2019s talking about when it comes to the climate. He\u2019s just an activist raising funds. He\u2019s trying to promote his box office by tapping into an issue that people his age think is important. And he may actually believe it. I know he idolizes Gore, which means he doesn\u2019t know anything. He really doesn\u2019t know anything. He\u2019s full of BS.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s unnatural how much these Millennials believe the propaganda on man-made climate change. Many of them actually believe the world will not be habitable by the time they reach 65 because of fossil fuels if we don\u2019t implement the Paris Accords, if we don\u2019t implement the United Nations deals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not only has a judge shut down the recount in Michigan for the third Hillary Clinton loss of the presidency since 2008, do you know what else is happening in the recount? Trump has gained something like either 123 or 143 votes. Trump won even bigger as a result of the &#8216;Jillary\u2019 Stein recount.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By virtue of Donald Trump claiming that Obama is helping him with his cabinet picks, Trump is therefore putting Obama\u2019s fingerprints on this, Obama\u2019s imprimatur on these cabinet picks. Now, we don\u2019t know which ones, obviously. But the story\u2019s out there that Obama is helping Trump with his cabinet picks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Who did Obama put at secretary of state? A war veteran who had such disdain for his own country he threw his fake medals over a fence at the White House. You couldn\u2019t have a greater and more stark difference in where this country is headed versus where it has been going.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can see that whatever advice Obama\u2019s giving Trump he\u2019s totally ignoring it, but he\u2019s still claiming that Obama\u2019s advice is valuable. He\u2019s still talking about how much he likes Obama, how much he\u2019s learning from Obama and how much he\u2019s gonna continue to rely on Obama.&nbsp;Believe me, folks, I\u2019m here to tell you that is brilliant.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If Obama\u2019s thinking of maintaining his legacy, if Obama\u2019s thinking the best way to cement his legacy is for Trump to fail, then Obama, in his ego and narcissism, might think Trump\u2019s picks are the biggest accidents, the biggest mistakes, the biggest boobs that have ever come down the pike and he may be telling Trump that he likes \u2019em, because in Obama\u2019s world these guys are destined to fail.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Generals &#8212; warrior generals, battlefield generals &#8212; being appointed to these various key cabinet posts.&nbsp;These people know how to run big organizations.&nbsp;They know how to delegate.&nbsp;They know how to get things done in the real world, and they know how to overcome adversity.&nbsp;They have the greatest amount of experience in exactly what is needed.&nbsp;Contrast that with all of the academic eggheads that Obama surrounded himself with. Not one real-world success story anywhere.&#8221; &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s all backfiring on Democrats! It\u2019s just rearing up &#8212; it\u2019s like a rattlesnake &#8212; and just continues to bite these people. They haven\u2019t figured out it out, and there\u2019s no antidote to the venom. It\u2019s like you put a bag of manure in front of \u2019em and they keep stepping in it. It\u2019s actually kind of fun to see.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Jill Stein-Hillary Clinton recount has been halted for good. It\u2019s over.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hillary is going to the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan to a very exclusive and relatively small ballroom (only 450 people) to thank who? Meanwhile, Trump is on a thank-you tour, which I think will continue throughout his presidency.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know, I\u2019m Mr. Optimism here, and I have been for 29-plus years, and I\u2019m gonna continue to be. But I also am governed by intelligence guided by experience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Liberalism\u2019s the easiest, most gutless choice in America, and it\u2019s very, very seductive.&#8221; &#8220;Who did Obama put at secretary of state?
