all right join is live right here in New
York City it's Ben Shapiro
editor-in-chief of The Daily wire and
host of the Ben Shapiro show it's a
podcast wildly successful you're in town
because you were just roasted by
commentary magazine right as a blast I'm
used to receiving a lot of haters
receiving it in person yeah was there
one particular line that stood out of
either it made you mad from somebody who
was roasting you or us or roasty well
dana perino kept calling me short and i
found that particularly insulting Dana's
a tiny human dude she was stressing
about how to roast because she usually
doesn't have that abrasive part of her
person I was shocked by the cruelty of
dana perino did you roasted back didn't
you yeah Jasper came in for it for a
couple and that's of course our dog all
right
meanwhile from commentary magazine to
the New York Times what do you make of
the New York Times being caught
not only in having to apologize for in
inappropriate tweet but then an
editorial note fixed on this news
analysis that said essentially yeah you
know what we left out the fact that the
woman involved in this story does not
remember this story yeah I would say
that it's unbelievable except it's
insanely believable
every time the New York Times makes a
mistake it is always in the direction of
somebody on the right getting clocked
and that's particularly true in the
Cavanaugh story I mean there was a much
bigger story in that book that was not
reported by the New York Times namely
that Leland Kaiser who is the best
friend kristinb lazy Fortas that she
didn't believe Ford story and was
pressured by Ford's allies didn't have a
changer story and the New York Times
didn't see Fitz report that they buried
this particular story in their news
analysis section so they didn't have to
run it through the news section and then
they actually removed the line that said
that the alleged victim didn't remember
the incident in question and then
replaces it later I mean that that's not
just bad journalism that isn't that it's
not that's not bocce I mean that's
purposeful attempt so let's see them try
to explain themselves out of this let's
see if the two writers of the book
talked about what they wrote for the
opinion section of the newspaper and
then how was edited out see if you buy
this
there was no desire to withhold
important information from our readers
we have all of it in the book
during the editing process there was an
oversight and this key this key detail
about the fact that the woman herself
has told friends she doesn't remember it
and has not wanted to talk about it got
cut and it was an oversight for a team
at the New York Times we have processes
in place I think actually the way it
happened was the editors being concerned
about naming her in that sentence that
have her name it also had that she
doesn't remember it we also took out the
fact that she didn't remember or even a
victim I mean she doesn't remember it no
I mean that there is no story here and
then this prompted editorials from the
New York Times in the Washington Post
talking about how the FBI was engaged in
a sham investigation based on them not
investigating an allegation that has no
alleged victim I mean it's it's insanity
right that explanation and of course I
don't buy the explanation oversight how
do you over how is it an oversight when
you don't just remove the name you
remove the key detail of the entire
story is that a detail that is the
center of the story but the center of
the story was from a from a man who used
to be a an attorney for Bill Clinton
during the impeachment yep and he would
not speak to the authors of the book
either and only spoke through two other
people who were officials who we don't
know who they are I mean the nonpartisan
attorney nonprofit or something yeah
exactly the whole thing is absurd they
ignored the real story but that is the
New York Times New York Times it right
and what about every presidential
candidate that immediately called for
Kavanagh to be impeached on a story that
had no substance yeah you mean Democrats
don't care about due process I mean
again and it's always Brett Kavanaugh
they should just make him the face if we
don't care about due process like every
time they say they don't care about due
process they should just flash his
picture
what about Biden and his latest blunder
he said he's gonna his tax credits gonna
put 720 million women back in the
workforce well that's good three hundred
and thirty million Americans listen to
this you get a tax break for racehorses
why in god's name couldn't we provide an
$8,000 tax credit for everybody who has
child care cost it would put they would
put 720 million back million women back
in the work force it would increase the
GDP to sound
a walk here by about 8/10 of 1% it would
grow the economy have you looked in
those numbers because I know you're very
good yeah I'm pretty sure that that that
doesn't add up I will say that this is
all baked into the cake for Joe Biden I
mean we all know that he is stumbling
into objects and that he is just
searching for an early bird dinner at
Denny's and drinking cans of ensure and
forgetting where he is on a routine
basis but I think that's baked into the
cake I think everybody sort of knows
that in fact I take the perspective that
in the general election it might not be
bad for him to look senile and old and
ineffectual because honestly at least he
doesn't look dangerous
right I mean if you're trying to run
somebody against president Trump and you
don't want to scare the American
population Joe Biden is the face of not
scary because what's scary about a guy
walking around tennis balls on the
bottom of his of his butt what do you
make of the fact that it was Warren wall
she's in second or third place she's
doing a little better she's kind of
nudging herself past Bernie yeah I mean
if she picks up the rest of Bernie
Sanders support obviously she's the
front-runner the big problem for
Elizabeth Warren Ritz remains and will
Maine continue to be the fact that she
has no black support right I mean the
fact is the Joe Biden retains an
enormous share of black support and
that's because he was vice president to
Barack Obama Elizabeth Warren is whiter
than I am by a large stretch and the
idea that she's going to start picking
up black support from Joe Biden in the
absence of Biden having a fall into the
van like Hillary Clinton moments I think
is problems but I will say this she also
has almost no Midwestern support the
middle of the country does not like
Elizabeth Warren and I talked to a
Democrat on Monday who said if she gets
the nomination Donald Trump gets four
more years I think that a lot of
Democrats are worried about that which
is why I say that despite the fact that
Joe Biden is older than Methuselah there
is there's a shot that that actually
cuts in his favor a lot more than
Elizabeth Warren this crazed radical
from from Harvard I'm picturing him
cutting the X's and the tennis balls and
Methuselah and falling into the van so
you're saying Joe Biden's the only
Democrat who could who has his shot at
winning I mean I don't think he's the
only one who has a shot buddy he
certainly has the best shot I mean I
would say that the Donald Trump has an
advantage against every other Democrat
against Joe Biden he is default Democrat
because he basically is the body and
weekend at Bernie's and all you have to
do is walk him out there around rob but
all the polls say he's not winning
against any
Democrat that ever ran for office ever
well I mean he may not win the primaries
but exactly what makes him appealing in
the general election is what makes him
vulnerable in the primaries Ben have you
enjoyed your appearance here of course
he roasted Joe Biden yes the way Dana
Perino is waiting for you just outside
very angry I'm physically afraid thank
you for thank you ben shapiro
