Starting point is 00:00:00 The accusations against besieged Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore have reached sufficient fever pitch to attract blood-sucking Harpy Gloria Allred. Brutal new testimony just this hour from an alleged victim. That said, Moore's attackers on the left have one intractable, desiccated, undead obstacle to their moralizing, Hillary Clinton, my third cousin once removed. We will analyze love in the time of fake news. Then, roaming millennial, Amber Athe, and Paul Bois, his eminence himself, joined the panel of deplore. to discuss short-fat Kim Jong-un, why you should boycott Kureig, and a New York Times writer's passionate defense of racial segregation. The New York Times is a former newspaper now, a former newspaper tomorrow, a former newspaper forever. I'm Michael Knowles, and this is the Michael Nulls show.
Starting point is 00:00:54 That Gloria All-Red press conference came out about 20 minutes ago, came out as we were ready to go on air. There is a woman who's now alleging that when she was 15, she was molested by Roy Moore, It was a sexual assault. There was nothing consensual about it. So this leaves Roy Moore with only one option. He has to come out as gay. He has to choose now to live as a gay man. We will have Christopher Plummer replace him as the Republican nominee in Alabama.
Starting point is 00:01:21 I think that's the only way that we can handle this and still possibly win this seat. Plummer 2017, that's the way to do it. There's your writing campaign right there. This all red presser, if you haven't seen it, is. savage. It is brutal. The Democrats have played this opposition research perfectly with accusations that haven't come out for 40 years. They've just played it right up to the election. They've built up. They've let him bury himself. And this is really rough. The woman's name is Beverly Young Nelson. She says that when she was 15, she was a beauty pet pageant queen who was working at a
Starting point is 00:01:59 diner, and Roy Moore would come in there. He was the DA for the county at the time. He would come in. He was always hitting on her, asking her to go out with him. She said no. One time he waited for her to leave the restaurant and offered to give her a ride home because her boyfriend wasn't there. According to this woman, he drove her around back where there were no lights and made a move, tried to lock the door, fondled her. Eventually, she said no, fought back long enough that she fell out of the car. He pushed her out of the car and said, you're just a child, I'm the DA. No one will ever believe you. Your mother will never believe you. Apparently her sister attests to this at the time, some friends.
Starting point is 00:02:39 She and her husband, crucially, voted for Trump. So this is one point. She said, I'm willing to go under oath on this. This isn't a Republican Democrat thing. I and my husband both voted for Trump. This is really, really bad, much worse than the Washington Post story, much worse than unnamed women. Some women on the record, some women off alleging weird conduct when they were 16 or 17 or 18.
Starting point is 00:03:04 This is brutal. It's graphic. It's going to be run on every TV in Alabama for the next few weeks. Mitch McConnell, by the way, before this press conference, had already called for Roy Moore to drop out of the race. The White House is backed off of Roy Moore. You'll remember Trump didn't endorse Roy Moore in the primary. He endorsed Luther Strange, the primary opponent. Here is Moore defending himself. Now, this clip is from before the Gloria All-Red Presser today, but I imagine he won't really change his tune very much. This is Roy Moore's defense. Washington Post established or published rather, yet another attack on my character and reputation in a desperate attempt to stop my political campaign for the United States Senate.
Starting point is 00:03:48 These attacks involve a minor and they're completely false and untrue. I want to make it clear to the media present and the people present. I have not provided alcohol beverages, alcoholic beverages, beer, or anything else to a minor. I have not been guilty of sexual misconduct with anyone. I've been investigated more than any other person in this country. To think that grown women would wait 40 years to come before, right before an election, to bring charges is absolutely unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Why now? The Democrats and the Republican states, establishment know the importance of this election. In fact, most people in America know the importance of this election. They see it as a prelude to the elections coming in 2018. It may very well determine the future of our country. My opponent is 11 points behind that came out just days before this article came out. They're desperate.
Starting point is 00:05:09 This article is a prime example of fake news. fake news that's rhymour's story and he's sticking to it a decent enough defense what else is he going to say he can't cop to it then he loses the race he can't drop out now no one's going to win in his place it'll just go to democrats so he's saying this is all fake news and don't worry about it a much harder case to make now that we have a woman on the record who's apparently a republican apparently a trump voter who's coming out and making these accusations now gloria all red is not the only blood-sucking harpy involved in all of this there is one intract problem for Democrats, and that is Hillary Clinton. So Chris Hayes, a stop clock is right twice a day. MSNBC, Chris Hayes came out and tweeted this over the weekend. Quote, as gross and cynical and hypocritical as the rights, what about Bill Clinton's stuff is, it's also true that Democrats and the center left are overdue for a real reckoning with the allegations against him. Read this account, he's talking about Juanita Broderick, in light of all we've been hearing and reading this last month and ask yourself if it is credible. Now, he's talking about this accusation
Starting point is 00:06:15 by a woman named Juanita Broderick that says that Bill Clinton raped her decades ago, and Hillary knew about it, and Hillary pressured her to keep quiet. And this has come out for years with the Clintons. Now we have Democrats finally copying and saying, well, maybe that's the case. Why are they doing it? It might be true that they want to get Hillary out of here. They're pulling it down in Brazil. They want to toss her under the bus, get rid of Hillary, Clinton, and as fast as we can move on to better pastures for 2020. But if that's the case, it takes the wind out of their sails of all of their moralizing. They've been saying, oh, we can, how could you possibly not call for Roy Moore to get out of
Starting point is 00:06:51 the race, to drop out, to go away? This was before the most recent accusations when it was just a Washington Post story. How could you not? It's awful. We're the moral voice of America. But just a year ago, they tried to make a woman who pressured and intimidated and bullied and smeared her husband's alleged rape victims, they tried to make her president. So much for all that moralizing. Where's that high horse? Where was all that moralism a year ago when you were trying to make
Starting point is 00:07:17 that woman who's accused of worse things when you were trying to make her president? You know, the guy I blame most in all of this. Obviously, we can go back and forth. The Clinton thing is a really nice tool at the rights disposable because we can say, well, look, folks, political races are complicated and, you know, there are more reasons than just accusations from 40 years ago to vote for a guy. Probably that argument's not going to hold anymore after the most recent presser in accusations, but we'll see what happens. The guy I believe most in all of this is Luther Strange, the primary opponent that Trump endorsed and the establishment endorsed in Alabama. He failed as a campaign. His campaign failed to dig up all of this dirt unless all of
Starting point is 00:07:56 these accusations are totally fabricated. And again, I wouldn't put it past Democrats to totally fabricate accusations weeks before an election when you're down by double digits. But unless they are totally fabricated, Luther Strange blew it because he could have found all of this. I've been to meetings like this. You go to the other campaign. You say, we have this information. They say, okay, they decide whether or not to drop out. If they don't privately drop out, then you release the information. It goes public. And then you see what's happening to Roy Moore now would have happened months ago. The Strange campaign didn't do it. It's really frustrating. We might lose the Senate seat now. It looks like we're probably
Starting point is 00:08:31 going to really, really awful. And all of this said, sex scandals are a hallmark of American politics. I think it were very, it's easy to say, well, now what has happened, Trump has reduced the nation to rubble, or Bill Clinton has reduced the nation to rubble, or now we have all these sex scandals, but it used to be so nice, and we'd court people, and it was hunky-dory and gentlemanly and chivalrous. Not true. They've been, sex scandals have been a hallmark of American politics since the beginning. Alexander Hamilton, Washington's aide to camp and the founder of the Treasury Department, he cuckled at a man named James Reynolds in 1791. This came out. It damaged his political career. A mid-19th century South Carolina senator from the Nullifier Party
Starting point is 00:09:12 had a gay relationship in college. And then he had a little dalliance, as he said, with his two teenage nieces. He couldn't run for re-election the next time, but he was re-elected to Senate a few years later. Senator David Walsh, a Democrat from Massachusetts, visited gay Nazi brothels. In America, you can go to gay brothels, you can go to Nazi brothels. You cannot go to gay Nazi brothels, that's a step too far. Supreme Court Justice, William O. Douglas, was thrice married, cheated on all of the wives, and molested airline stewardesses.
Starting point is 00:09:39 There's nothing really new about all of this. That said, it's going to have consequences, and this might have been the nail in the coffin for Mr. Moore. Now, we've got to analyze all of this. We have to bring on roaming millennial, with us since the beginning, roaming millennial, to give us expert advice, Amber Athe, from the Daily Caller,
Starting point is 00:09:57 and his eminence, the one and only, Paul Cardinal Bois. Panel, thank you for being here. I appreciate it. Thanks for having us. My pleasure. Roming. Is Roy Moore finished? I'm having a lot of trouble with this. I'm someone who thought it was extremely hypocritical when during the election Democrats turned a blind eye to Bill Clinton, and I also was someone who was very skeptical about a lot of the allegations that were coming out against Trump.
Starting point is 00:10:21 With that being said, I'm trying to look at this fairly and objectively and not see more as a Republican, but rather just someone who's having all of these allegations against him. that, you know, right now our hearsay, but I mean, it's not just one person at this point. I don't think it's good for the Republican image if he stays in this race and if people continue to stand by him. And this isn't to say that I think he's definitely guilty. I don't think we should abandon presumption of innocence just because this is a political matter. And, you know, we're fighting for the elections in 2018.
Starting point is 00:10:54 But at the same time, yeah, this doesn't look good. And for a lot of people, Republicans already have the image, whether it's true or not. I don't think it's true, of being soft on men who sexually harassed and sexually abuse women. And I don't think Roy Moore is good for the party right now. That might be the case. But if he isn't guilty, then should we allow ourselves to be bullied by Gloria Allred? If he isn't guilt, I understand it says, well, it's easy. There are all these accusations.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Let's dump him under the bus. But what if he isn't guilty? Then doesn't that set a precedent for all campaigns? That said, it doesn't look good for? for more in this particular, but in the general, if they're just unsubstantiated, if we don't have a lot of evidence, should we really automatically believe Gloria Allred in her clients? I don't believe these women without evidence. I think if you're making allegations against someone, it's up to you. You have burden of proof to substantiate your claims, but at the same time,
Starting point is 00:11:50 if we are actually interested in pushing forward conservative principles through electing legislators, then people, including Roy Moore himself, need to realize, that this looks bad. Now, I think the clip you mentioned that he was still, I think, 11 points ahead of his opponent. So maybe for Alabama voters, this isn't a big deal. But I think in all these elections, the candidates themselves often end up overlooking the point of this. The point of this is to get someone with conservative principles into office and to make people more willing in the future to vote for Republicans. This doesn't do that. Sure. Amber, I think a lot of people in the Republican side who are keeping Mama and Roy Moore or who are even defending Roy Moore,
Starting point is 00:12:30 more, are saying, look, I don't care. I don't care about 40 years ago. I don't care about his personal life. I want more freedom and I want less tyranny and I want more of my own money and I want less government and I want conservative social policy and I don't want crazy revolutionary social policy and it's a razor the majority in the Senate right now. Do you think that that argument holds water or do we have to hold this guy accountable if the accusations are at all credible and tell them, well, we're going to lose this race, but it's better than having someone who has committed these crimes in the Senate.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Well, I don't think it would be very conservative to not hold people accountable for their crimes, considering how much we believe in due process and how we believe that the law applies equally to everyone, regardless of whether or not that person is in a position of power. And I think in this case, you know, it's important to note that these stories
Starting point is 00:13:25 are very well-sourced. The Washington Post-Piece, noted that the woman who made these accusations had told their mothers and their sister at the time. And then the woman who just came out had this yearbook note. She had a photo of a yearbook note that Roy Moore apparently left her. He signed it, Love Roy Moore, DA, and then he called her beautiful in it. And I know if my parents saw that type of message in a yearbook from a 30-year-old man when I was 15, 16 years old, they would go nuclear. I mean, gosh, my dad would probably be in prison by now.
Starting point is 00:13:59 So I think it's important to look at all of these accusations as a whole and not just, you know, each part on their own. Mr. Bois, your eminence. Should Roy Moore get out of the race? It's certainly looking like that. Last week when the allegations first broke, I said to myself, okay, I'm going to give it a couple days, see if the allegations remain credible
Starting point is 00:14:22 and if they hold up to scrutiny. I certainly wasn't one to get. get quick in with the Washington Post or even believe them right off the bat. But it very quickly is looking like the allegations are credible. The one that came forward today is even more credible, like Amber said, the yearbook. I think that Roy Moore is probably guilty of these. And I also have a friend of mine who I won't name who's dealt with Roy Moore in the past previously. said when she was 18, he gave her his personal email address,
Starting point is 00:14:59 which she felt was a little bit inappropriate and odd at the time. Give me the email address. I want to get him on the show. Come on, pass it along, man. I'm not cute enough, and I'm not 18 anymore. So, yeah, I think he needs to drop out. When you've lost Paul Bois, you have, Paul Bois is slightly to the right of Genghis Khan and Attila the Hunt,
Starting point is 00:15:19 the Vox Dei himself, really bad. Not looking good. he might have to finally call this thing quits. But we'll see. They're pretty tough down there in Alabama. Maybe I'll say, I got two words for you, Washington Post, and they're not happy birthday. Who knows? Okay, we have a lot of news to get to. We have to get to the Democrats and New York Times full-throated endorsement of segregation. We have to get to fake news from the New York Times, a separate fake news from the New York Times. And we also have to get to the boycott Kyrig campaign, not just because the coffee isn't good, but because we're defending Sean Hannity.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Before all of that, I'm sorry. I know you guys want to definitely see more Amber and roaming millennial, and you'll tolerate more Palbois.

So go over at Dailywire.com. We were right back. The New York Times, this is the most, this is the most, the height of irony, the best story to come out of the New York Times in a while. The New York Times is suing a Manhattan woman for pretending to be a New York Times reporter.
Starting point is 00:17:42 So a fake news outlet is suing woman, a woman for saying that she, a fake, fake reporter, she's a fake, journalist, which I think makes her a real journalist, which means she should sue the New York Times for all of their fake news. This is a lot like inception. It's a woman named Contessa Bourbon. She's been masquerading as a New York Times reporter at events at the Brookings Institution, on Twitter throughout social media. She's used it to talk to congressional staff
Starting point is 00:18:08 to get into events, and they're very upset because they're saying that this woman is damaging their decent reputation. They're saying that they have a fine reputation in business and a distinctive quality to their journalism, and I can give everybody listening and hear a minute to chuckle and gaffa and spit out their drinks very comically.
Starting point is 00:18:27 before answering this. Roaming. Why on earth would anyone want to be associated with the New York Times? That's what I was just wondering myself. I mean, if you're going to go out there and just pretend to be something you're not, why is New York Times reporter the thing you'd want to be?
Starting point is 00:18:42 Why would you, the New York Times? It's like, yeah, I'm an unemployed bum. Yeah, no, I'm an unemployed. I'm going to get sued by the unemployed bum guild in the country. It doesn't make any sense. Maybe she was hoping that, I guess, internally their own fact-checking
Starting point is 00:18:56 as to who was working for crew or who was actually an employee was as vigorous as their regular fact-checking for their stories? I don't know. It's a mystery to us all. She'll probably get promoted. If they use their normal fact-checking, she'll probably become at least the opinion page editor or something before the year is out. Mr. Bois, once you have finished laughing and defying and comically spitting out your drink, doesn't this woman have a strong defense if she plays insanity? Well, Michael, I really don't know what's more insane. The fact that the woman was posing as reporter or the fact that she thought the New York Times was respectable enough to pose that.
Starting point is 00:19:30 The place to do it. So if I were a judge and I heard the insanity plea, I'd be, yeah, yeah, I think the fact that you thought the New York Times was the organization you were going to pose as, yeah, that's a pretty strong case for insanity. That's fair enough. Now, you've heard it from the Supreme Judge himself, Vox Day, Paul Cardinal Blas. Speaking of the New York Times on Saturday, Eka and Yanka, I'm sure I'm triggering people
Starting point is 00:19:59 and microaggressing by mispronouncing that, asked in the New York Times, quote, can my children be friends with white people? I'll save you the trouble of reading the piece. No, the answer is no, according to this writer, a full-throated defense of racial segregation from this New York Times writer. Roaming, has the New York Times always been this regressive and ridiculous?
Starting point is 00:20:21 or, you know, as Andrew Claven says, is it a former newspaper? Did it used to be a good place and then it just recently got hollowed out by crazy leftists? No, you know what? I think the New York Times isn't the right in this. I mean, first, you know, black people and white people are being friends, then what's next? You know, black and white married couples, mixed-raced-raced children? Where will it end? Where will it end? Exactly. They're right in taking a stand against this.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Editorial editor George Wallace will not stand for this. Right, but I think it's actually, this is great because for a long time, people on the right, people who are conservatives have been using the term regressive and actually painting these people for what they are, you know, almost pro-racism, pro-segregation. And for a while, frankly, we've looked a little bit crazy, but I think it's coming to the point now where more and more people are starting to realize that there is this underlying narrative of almost anti-whiteness pro-segregation. And they really are in every way regressive in their ideology. And I'm actually at least relieved that more and more people are going to find out about this because of this. And I think the New York Times has remained to too many people a credible outlet. And I think I'm glad this is happening. Mr. Waugh, this seems to be a step backward, certainly, for race relations.
Starting point is 00:21:36 They seem to have taken a step backward over the last 20 years. Obviously, there are many things that we could blame for this. The left likes to blame White Lash, that's their term, or re-exam. action against a black president or black people getting some new rights. The right rightly points to multiculturalism, terrible revisionist histories, people being ignorant and being uneducated from secondary schooling through colleges. What is to blame? What cultural factor, what political factor is to blame for the backward step in race
Starting point is 00:22:09 relations? It's 50 years of being inundated with identity politics, Michael. I mean, unfortunately, as much as we have... want to, as much as we revere and rightly revere Dr. Martin Luther King, I'm afraid he is not the one who he's not, who won the, the, the cultural battle. Yeah, on the cultural battle. He is not. The Civil Rights Act passed, yes, and that's a very good thing. But when it came to the actual cultural battle and the views and the way we talk about day to day, that went to Malcolm X and the Black Panthers. That is the predominant view
Starting point is 00:22:45 that whites and blacks cannot in any way coexist unless there's some serious measure taken on behalf of whites that just, I don't even know what it is at this point. But yeah, that's essentially what the view here is. It's the Malcolm X Black Panther view of race relations that we cannot get along. We cannot recognize each other's humanity.
Starting point is 00:23:12 I'm completely at a loss. and we can debate it all day long, but really New York Times and this man who published this piece, which really should be titled How I Teach My Son to Be a Racist, there's no way to debate with them. They're lost in a broken ideology, and the only way to defeat them is on the cultural sphere, and that's it. And the left, they just use Martin Luther King's name.
Starting point is 00:23:36 They just use his name and they hollow him out. You'll notice they always refer to him as Dr. Martin Luther King, but they don't refer to him as Reverend Martin Luther King, know, the thing that makes him a doctor. It's not like he's an ophthalmologist, right? He's a theologian, he's a preacher, and they take the Jesus out of him. But there are two figures.
Starting point is 00:23:53 There's Martin Luther King who comes from a Baptist Christian tradition, and there's Malcolm X who comes from the Nation of Islam tradition, and there's the nonviolence, there's God who subdues himself to logic and reason, and there's wrath and chickens coming home to roost and violence in the streets. And the left, the left always use, is Martin Luther King's name. They always use his picture. But in their rhetoric, in their
Starting point is 00:24:17 action, in their policy prescription, they certainly seem to side with Malcolm X. They certainly seem to side with the forces of racial division. Amber, can your child be friends with white people? I guess yours can. But is the fundamental thesis of this piece, is there any merit to it at all? The thesis that America is so inherently racist and it has never corrected its inherent racism and its inherent oppression and therefore kids need to watch out. Little black kids need to watch out for the cops. They need to watch out for white people who will betray them. Is there any shred of reality to this?
Starting point is 00:24:56 No, I don't know that there is. And unfortunately, what we know now is that a lot of racism is learned. It's not inherent to individuals. And this New York Times writer has decided that he's going to teach his children to be racist and to continue this awful trend. And there's a famous quote that goes something like the oppressed eventually become the oppressors. In this case, I think that's what a lot of the aggressive left is seeking to do. There's so much anger on that side over slavery and various systemic racism, that now their goal is to go ahead and oppress people in some kind of sixth sense of twisted justice. There is certainly images of this in even Columbus Day.
Starting point is 00:25:41 You know, on Columbus Day, we talked about the history of Mr. Columbus, and one of the reasons that Columbus Day became celebrated in the United States, it was celebrated in 1892, the 400th anniversary of his expedition. But it wasn't celebrated on the 300th anniversary of the expedition. And the reason is that a year earlier, the largest mass lynching in U.S. history was taken up against Sicilians. It was actually Sicilian Americans who were the object of this lynching. 11 of them were killed. and then Italian Americans pushed for this holiday because Columbus was an Italian guy. He probably wouldn't have called himself Italian.
Starting point is 00:26:15 He would have called himself Genovese or Spanish or something. But we do see that coming back, certainly time and time again. All right, enough of the fake New York Times. I can't take any more. This is the most New York Times I've read in years probably. Anyone has read at all, actually. That's true. I am the subscriber.
Starting point is 00:26:33 I'm the last subscriber to the New York Times. But I'm just kidding. I would never pay them anything. There's another great story that went around Twitter this weekend, which is boycott Curig. Americans are boycotting Curig after a Media Matters Soros-coordinated effort caused the coffee maker to dump Sean Hannity's show. Here's Americans reacting. Well, let's get the smashing, folks. Get a nice wide stance.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Get a good wide stance, take a firm grip, and you want a good full bottom turn. one piece take away so that you can really crush this thing. Now here we go. Let's see what we can do with this thing. I believe that'll do it. Wait. Oh, boy. Look what I found. Pieces.
Starting point is 00:27:41 This is why they cut it off at the end. That's good. This is why you've got to subscribe, folks. I want to replay that. The whole rest of the day, I'm just going to be playing that video clip. So Keurig pulls out of Hannity be caught for no reason, by the way. Hannity gave Roy Moore a fairly tough interview, but they decided to pounce on him at Media Matters,
Starting point is 00:27:58 which is a George Soros-funded attack dog group. And now Americans are boycotting. It looks like Kurek may reverse its decision. Roaming, is it distasteful for conservatives to boycott, just like lefties do? It's much funnier. They're much more clever about how they do it. The left is always shrieking,
Starting point is 00:28:16 you have to stop buying this product. And meanwhile, the right is like taking golf clubs to it and making funny videos about it. Is it distasteful? should we be engaging in these tactics or should we leave coffee unpoliticized? Well, that's a great question. And I firmly believe that coffee should not be political. I don't think our ice cream needs to be political.
Starting point is 00:28:36 I don't think our clothing needs to be political. But at the same time, we have to ask ourselves, are the consumers the ones who are making this political or is curing the one that started making this political by withdrawing their sponsorship? That's a hard question. But I think consumers are totally in the right to support brands who they feel. align more with their worldview. And again, I'm not saying that conservatives should be so sensitive and, you know, these special snowflakes that get mad at brands as if they do something they don't like.
Starting point is 00:29:06 But at the same time, you know, I don't think Kureig is necessarily the biggest culprit of this. I think Ben and Jerry's is really the quintessential representative of a lefty company who kind of forces their political views on people. In that case, I think it's completely justified and fine for consumers to say, no, I don't want to sponsor this. Mr. Bois, I know that the left is constantly demonizing the evil corporations. Bernie Sanders talked about the millionaires and the billionaires of the corporate class. Is corporate America, does it lean left or does it lean right? Left.
Starting point is 00:29:40 I mean, let's just say, okay, they're not full-blown socialists in the sense they want the government to seize control their operations. They're just crony capitalists. Yeah, they're just crony capitalists. But yes, in terms of everything social, yeah, they're pretty left. I mean, in terms of traditional morality, same-sex marriage, yeah, as far to the left as you can get. And in terms of abortion, that gets a little bit more dicey, you know, with places like Starbucks and, of course, Target, who are all in for that. Other corporations maybe not so much.
Starting point is 00:30:18 But, I mean, for the most part, yes, corporate America is against Christians. is against Orthodox Jews, is against anybody who holds anything traditional and doesn't want to get in line with the sexual revolution. So, yep. Sad. I always bring on Paul Bois to cheer me up. You know, I always just, so, Paul Bois,
Starting point is 00:30:37 it's a nice day out. It's sunshiny, right? It's terrible. All right, no, that's fine. All right, well, this last news, I had to end on a good news story. I had to end on the greatest news story from the entire weekend.
Starting point is 00:30:49 It was a single tweet from our dear leader, President Trump on his Asia trip. Quote, this is after Kim Jong-un apparently called Trump old. Our president responded in a very diplomatic, very American way. Why would Kim Jong-un insult me by calling me old when I would never call him short and fat? Oh, well, I try so hard to be his friend, and maybe someday that will happen. Amber, the left expectedly went nuts, which was probably the point of this entire tweet. Is this the greatest moment of Trump's presidency, including the appointment of Neil Gorsuch?
Starting point is 00:31:28 Yeah, so when this tweet happened, I was sitting around drinking beers with friends, and I think we all laughed for a solid 20 minutes straight. I'm on my third day of laughing. Most perfect backhanded insult you could ever imagine. And the fact that it's from the president just makes it a million times better. This is by far top 10 Donald Trump tweets of all time. You know, they're saying now that he's immature and reckless and impulsive because he heard that he called him fat and he just tweeted this out. Clearly these people have been missing the last two years of Donald Trump's political career, you know, the entirety of his political career.
Starting point is 00:32:05 This clearly seems to me to have a strategic advantage, which is that you have to back up American credibility. You have to build American credibility both in action, both in shows of military force, in shows of diplomatic arrangements. and in the way you speak. So you have this little tin pot, fat dictator with nuclear weapons in violation of countless US and UN treaties and resolutions. And he's calling this guy old. And there's our president doesn't blink. Calls him short and fat and tells him where to go, you know, in not so many words. Roaming, am I just kidding myself? Or is this a strategically smart way to
Starting point is 00:32:44 respond to this guy? You know, I'm kidding myself. That's fine. You don't have to answer. I understand. fan of Donald Trump's Twitter account. I don't know if this is strategic. It's definitely hilarious, though. And I think, you know, there are teenage girls everywhere learning some tips from Donald Trump about how you properly conduct a Twitter flame war.
Starting point is 00:33:01 It's pretty great. And actually just before, I think it was after that tweet, he went off on the haters. And I think it's just great that the president of the United States is taking time out of his busy schedule to call out the haters on Twitter. It's great. It does harken back to, I think it was two years ago,
Starting point is 00:33:16 when he said, happy New Year's, to all, even to the losers and the haters. He has one of the highest IQs and everybody knows it. But I feel bad for you. It's not your fault that you were born effed up. He used the longer word. That's the president. He obviously, he really is a poet in this medium.
Starting point is 00:33:35 I'm not being facetious. I'm not being hyperbolic. He uses language in this medium so effectively. Mr. Bois, is it going to start World War III? Should we just hunker down right now? I'd be hard pressed to say. if a tweet from President Trump cost World War III. Or are you going to feel foolish
Starting point is 00:33:54 when that building behind you blows up because of it? Yeah, yeah. I would feel very, very foolish. But I don't, I think this tweet was brilliant. It's just, it's the way you gotta deal with men like Kim Jong-E-un and other men of his caliber is just to deal with them on their level. and that this is exactly the way to hit it at him and just show,
Starting point is 00:34:22 you know what? You are a small individual on this stage. You are not big, and we're not going to treat you with the level of respect that you think you deserve. I love it. Yeah, I really love it, too. I think it's mature. I think it's strategic. I don't care how absurd roaming millennial thinks I am being right now.
Starting point is 00:34:39 So when the bombs start flying, of course, panel, feel free to come hunker down here. I am basically in a cellar. I'm in the seller of the Ben Shapiro show. So come on down. We'll lock it up. We have endless supplies of cofefefe, obviously, a bunch of MREs and ammo. So feel free to come over here. Panel, always good to see you. Amber Athe from the Daily Caller, roaming millennial from the YouTube's, and his eminence, Paul Cardinal Bois. That is our entire show today. I should point out, if you want to get a little kick, we're talking about Twitter Flame Wars. Montel Williams tweeted an article that I wrote over the weekend. You know, he used to be on daytime TV, and he had that show with the psychic and reading DNA results and whatever. And anyway, he tweeted out this article that I said and said it was the least intelligent thing he'd ever read. And so we were going back and forth and I said, well, you're welcome to come on my show if you'd like to not just insult me, but actually debate the merits of these things.
Starting point is 00:35:29 And he totally chickened out. So if you want to send him a little tweet laughing about that, it would be my guest. It was pretty funny. You can find it on the Twitter timelines. You have to subscribe with the conversation tomorrow. It's going to be a lot of fun. I've got my nose in the book studying all of the important facts to change your life forever. And I'll see you then.
