Obama, after hearing that Trump supported it, decided to try to shut it down. It\u2019s an act of pique. It\u2019s an act of pettiness. It\u2019s an act of small time childishness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Did you hear about Fidel Castro\u2019s funeral? His funeral procession jeep broke down on the way to the burial. Hell didn\u2019t even want the guy!&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The entire Washington establishment, apparently the game is totally diplomatic. You never say what you mean. You speak in code so that only your fellow insiders know what you\u2019re talking about. But you never telegraph what you\u2019re gonna do. You just don\u2019t do that. And Trump does.&#8221; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Anything and anybody that can help a 65-year-old feel like a 10-year-old again, that\u2019s worth something. I mean, how many of you at age 60 or 65 are able to recapture whatever feelings of magic and euphoria and happiness you had when you were a kid?&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The GOP in Michigan is saying the recount there could cost as much as $12 million. That\u2019s how much it can cost the taxpayers. Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, those three states were chosen because Trump\u2019s margin was small enough there, it was felt, that they might have some success on the recounts.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There certainly is not a person that has had more effect on the world than Donald Trump. Look at these elections all over the world.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I happen to love the Christmas season. It dates back to the romanticized specks of my childhood with it, our family was big into Christmas, both religiously and just culturally, and I just have some of my fondest memories of that time of year.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think this recount is pure fundraising scammery going on along with servicing a bent-out-of-shape bunch of leftists who still can\u2019t come to grips with what happened, and maybe at the outside a wild dream that they could actually overturn this, harass enough electors, and get it to Hillary. But that\u2019s I don\u2019t think what their objective is any longer.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Democrats, Obama cannot make an argument that they are responsible for economic growth. They cannot make the argument that they are responsible for the newfound energy and optimism in the U.S. and the economy. They are not responsible for any of it. The Obama policies have depressed and retarded and stagnated the U.S. economy, which is why the Democrat Party has been shellacked in three straight elections.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Folks, just buckle up because we\u2019re headed places that we haven\u2019t been politically in quite a while. It\u2019s gonna be exciting. It\u2019s gonna be maddening to some people, exhilarating to others, but I think on balance it\u2019s gonna be enjoyable in one sense \u2019cause the media and the Democrats are not gonna know what hit \u2019em day after day after day, and they\u2019re gonna continue to be on defense not knowing how to stop the guy.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If the press would cover Donald Trump accurately and honorably, he wouldn\u2019t have to tweet. He\u2019s tweeting to correct the lies and the dishonesty in the Drive-By Media about him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Trump is not on defense, folks. We are on offense with Donald Trump. And that\u2019s one of the big invisible unspoken reasons why he has such loyalty is because people who support him are just like a lot of you in this audience, fed up with being on defense and being on a team that never fought back, much less went on offense.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When liberals lose elections, they don\u2019t look inward and ask what they did wrong.&nbsp;They look at you and ask, &#8216;Why are you so stupid? How in the world could you have not voted for us?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Never, ever&#8230; I personally never talk about things that are unimportant or irrelevant, even though you might think so. Nothing discussed on this program is ever unimportant.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The climate\u2019s changing all the time and nobody denies that, but the idea that we control it is what\u2019s absurd, and the idea that there is man-made climate change is absurd.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are on offense with Donald Trump. And that\u2019s one of the big invisible unspoken reasons why he has such loyalty is because people who support him are just like a lot of you in this audience, fed up with being on defense and being on a team that never fought back, much less went on offense. But these tweets and this erratic or unpredictable behavior keeps Trump\u2019s opponents on defense, and, believe me, it is a delight to see it.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Obama stimulus was never a stimulus. It was a payoff to unions. There wasn\u2019t one bridge rebuilt. There wasn\u2019t one road rebuilt. There wasn\u2019t one school rebuilt like Obama kept promising.&#8221; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obama\u2019s policies, the Democrat Party\u2019s policies have been just repudiated in almost a humiliating way.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You want both sides of the story? You get it here. Not only do you get both sides of the story, you get the proper opinion &#8212; a learned, reasoned opinion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;The protest at the North Dakota pipeline is fascinating.
