SPEAKING OF VIOLENT CONFLICT, THE 2016 ELECTION.
REALLY?
THIS MANY PEOPLE STILL?
THEY'RE HAVING-- EVERYBODY, DON'T WAKE HIM UP.
SHH.
IT'S ALREADY THE LAST WEEK OF JANUARY WHICH MEANS WE'RE JUST
SEVEN DAYS AWAY FROM THE IOWA CAUCUS.
IT'S THAT SPECIAL SEASON WHEN WE PRETEND TO KNOW WHAT A CAUCUS
IS.
EVEN THOUGH WE'RE SO CLOSE, THE GOP STILL HASN'T RALLIED AROUND
ONE CANDIDATE, THE TWO FRONTRUNNERS, CRUZ AND TRUMP, OF
COURSE, ARE KNOWN BY THEIR CELEBRITY COUPLE NAME, CRUMP.
(LAUGHTER) (APPLAUSE)
I LIKE THAT.
DONALD TRUMP STILL HOLDS A COMMANDING LEAD IN NATIONAL
POLLS SO THE GOP ESTABLISHMENT IS LINING UP BEHIND HIM TO PUSH
HIM IN FRONT OF A TRAIN.
(LAUGHTER) LAST WEEK AND THIS IS TRUE, LAST
WEEK CONSERVATIVE JOURNAL THE NATIONAL REVIEW CAME OUT WITH AN
ENTIRE ISSUE AGAINST TRUMP.
IT'S FILLED WITH ANTI-TRUMP ESSAYS BY CONSERVATIVES ACROSS
THE POLITICAL SPECTRUM, BILL KRISTOL, MICHAEL MEDVED, ERIK
ERICKSON, THE DOWAGERRER COUNTESS,ED MONOPOLY GUY,
BASICALLY ALL OF THESE GUYS ARE SAYING GO TO HELL, DO NOT PASS
GO, DO NOT COLLECT $200.
AND HERE'S A TAPE, AND THIS IS REPUBLICANS, REPUBLICANS.
HERE IS A TASTE OF SOME OF THE GOP ATTACK ON THE GOP
FRONTRUNNER.
>> A PRESIDENT TRUMP WOULD BE A TERRIBLE FACE OF AMERICA.
HE'S AN ABSOLUTE NARCISSIST.
>> MARK HALL PRINCIPLE WRITES TRUMP IS LIKE A TAPE WORM HAS
INNOVATED THE SCIS MATICALLY WEAKENED BODY OF THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.
BILL KRISTOL SAYS IS HE THE VERY EPITOME OF VULGARITY.
>> IF THEY PUT DONALD TRUMP, IF THEY TRY TO PUT DONALD TRUMP IN
OFFICE, IF THAT'S WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT, YOU ARE GOING TO
SEE AN END TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
>> Stephen: NOW I JUST WANT TO REMIND YOU, TO BE CLEAR, THIS IS
HIS OWN PARTY SAYING BAD THINGS ABOUT THE LEADER IN THE POLLS
DONALD TRUMP.
I MIGHT ACTUALLY LIKE DONALD BOTTER THAN THEY DO.
HE'S BEEN ON THE SHOW.
HE WAS GOT FOR RATINGS, AND HE LEFT THE ENTIRE THEATER SMELLING
LIKE BRUT AFTERSHAVE.
(LAUGHTER) REALLY NICE.
WASN'T IT NICE?
REALLY NICE.
MIGHT BE HIGH KARATE, I'M NOT SURE.
AND NOT ONLY DOES THE ESTABLISHMENT NOT LIKE THE
FRONTRUNNER, THEY DON'T LIKE THE SECOND RUNNER EITHER, TEXAS
SENATOR AND HALF MELTED GI JOE TED CRUZ.
TED KRUDZ IS SO REVILED BY THOSE IN CONGRESS AND THEN HE,
ESPECIALLY IN THE SENATE, THAT THEY'RE SAYING DONE ALT TRUMP
WOULD BE BETTER FOR THE PARTY THAN TED CRUZ.
>> BOB DOLE TOLD "THE NEW YORK TIMES" THE PARTY WOULD FACE
CATACLYSMIC AND WHOLESALE LOSSES IF IT NOMINATED CRUZ.
>> NORTH CAROLINA SENATOR BURR SAID IN A PRIVATE MEETING HE
WOULD ACTUALLY RATHER VOTE FOR BERNIE SANDERS OVER TED CRUZ.
>> Stephen: WHAT?
(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE) TED, YOU JUST GOT THROWN UNDER
THE BUS AND IT'S A V-W BIO DIESEL.
(LAUGHTER) DID WE JUST RUN OVER TED CRUZ?
LET ME BACK UP AND CHECK.
BEEP, BEEP, YUP, THERE'S TED.
THEY DON'T LIKE HIM.
(LAUGHTER) SO SOME REPUBLICANS WOULD GET
BEHIND ANYBODY BUT DONALD TRUMP WHILE OTHERS ARE ON BOARD FOR
ANYBODY BUT TED CRUZ.
AND SOME LIKE SOUTH CAROLINA SENATOR AND TENNESSEE WILLIAMS
INGENUE LINDSEY GRAHAM CANNOT STAND EITHER MAN SAYING OF THE
CHOICE, IT IS LIKE BEING SHOT OR POISONED, WHAT DOES IT REALLY
MATTER.
(LAUGHTER) (APPLAUSE)
BOOM.
I SAY WHY NOT A JOINT TICKET.
SHOT POISON 2016.
AND BOTH OF THESE GUYS ARE GOING TO BE HARD TO STOP, ESPECIALLY
DONALD TRUMP.
IT SEEMS LIKE THIS GUY IS BULLETPROOF WHICH IS SADLY NOT
THE CASE FOR SOME HYPOTHETICAL NEW YORKERS.
>> I HAVE MOST LOYAL PEOPLE.
DID YOU EVER SEE THIS, WHERE I COULD STAND IN THE MIDDLE OF
FIFTH AVENUE AND SHOOT SOMEBODY AND I WOULDN'T LOOSE ANY VOTERS,
OKAY.
>> Stephen: TO EXPLAIN HOW IMPRESSIVE THAT IS FOR THOSE OF
YOU WITHOUT DON'T LIVE IN NEW YORK, FIFTH AVENUE IS AN
EXTREMELY CROWDED STREET IN MANHATTAN WHERE IT IS ILLEGAL TO
SHOOT PEOPLE.
CAN'T DO IT.
YOU CAN'T DO IT.
IT'S FROWNED ON.
NO ONE WANTS THAT.
>> Jon: YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
>> Stephen: GENERALLY THEY STOP YOU FROM DOING THAT.
NOW TRUMP ISN'T SAYING HE COULD GET AWAY WITH MURDER.
HE'S SAYING IT IS ALL ABOUT LOYALTY THAT IS WHAT TRUMP TOLD
JOHN DIKERSON ON YESTERDAY'S NATION FACE.
>> YOU SAID YESTERDAY YOU COULD SHOOT SOMEONE ON FIFTH AVENUE
AND WOULDN'T LOSE VOTERS.
ARE YOU THAT CONFIDENT, HUH?
>> WELL, I HAVE A VERY GREAT GROUP OF PEOPLE, JOHN.
I MEAN I HAVE PEOPLE THAT ARE SO LOYAL AND IT'S BEEN SO REPORTED
AND EVEN IN YOUR POLL, BUT IN A LOT OF THE POLLS, THEY DO THAT.
THE LOYALTIY FACTOR.
AND MY FACTOR IS UP, WHEN YOU ADD IT ALL UP IT IS PRETTY MUCH
CLOSE TO 90%.
THESE ARE PEOPLE THAT JUST WON'T LEAVE.
THEY WILL NOT LEAVE.
>> Stephen: THAT'S RIGHT.
TRUMP VOTERS WILL NOT LEAVE.
(LAUGHTER) I THINK THAT REPRESENTS A HUGE
PROBLEM FOR ONE PERSON, DONALD TRUMP.
CUZ WHEN I HEAR THIS MAN SAY NOTHING CAN STOP ME FROM
WINNING, NOT EVEN SHOOTING PEOPLE, I DON'T HEAR A AN APPEAL
TO VOTERS, I HEAR A CRY FOR HELP.
JUST REMEMBER, HERE IS A GUY WHO RAN FOR PRESIDENT PROBABLY TO
PROMOTE HIS REALITY SHOW OR HIS MATTRESS BRAND, OR HIS LINE OF
PREMIUM EX-WIVES.
AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE HE MIGHT ACTUALLY WIN.
AND NO MATTER WHAT HE SAYS OR DOES, CRITICIZING WOMEN,
ATTACKING MEXICANS, BANNING MUSLIMS, SAYING JOHN MCCAIN SAY
LOSER FOR BEING A PRISONER OF WAR, NONE OF IT AFFECTS HIS
POPULARITY.
SO HE MAY NOT BE SAYING I CAN SHOOT SOMEONE AND STILL BE
ELECTED PRESIDENT.
HE MAY BE SAYING I CAN SHOOT SOMEONE AND STILL BE SELECTED
PRESIDENT.
BECAUSE DONALD TRUMP CAN'T POSSIBLY REALLY WANT TO BE
PRESIDENT.
IT'S THE HARDEST JOB IN THE WORLD.
HE KNOWS THAT THE PRESIDENCY, IF IT CAN DO THIS TO BARACK OBAMA
IN EIGHT YEARS, IMAGINE WHAT DONALD TRUMP WILL LOOK LIKE.
