Today, Hillary Clinton is slated to slam the Trump campaign's association with the excreble alt-right.

0:06.0

She's released a brutal ad preparing the groundwork, and we'll show you that ad a little bit later. As one of the leading antagonists of the alt-right, there's some accuracy to the ad. She's right that Trump has winked at the alt-right, particularly in that awful Jake Tapper interview on CNN. She's also right that the new Trump campaign CEO, Steve Bannon, has called Breitbart a gathering spot for the alt-right, and she's also right that the alt-right is a movement that prizes white solidarity over any sort of real principle. But there are some serious problems with Hillary's ad. First, it implies that all of the Trump supporters are alt-writers, which is a slur, it is untrue, and it is a lie.

0:37.9

Second, the ad also implies the alt-right is conservative, which is also untrue. Just ask anybody on the alt-right. But we do have to ask, what's driving Hillary to even raise the profile of the alt-right by attacking in a full speech, which she's supposed to do in a couple hours or so? Sure, it's typical democratic politicking. after all, Joe Biden once said that Mitt Romney, the mildest man in the world, wanted to put black Americans back in chains, but it's a weird choice in an election that Hillary, by the polls, is winning handily. Unless, of course, it's a preliminary move toward what the alt-right likes to call no-platforming Trump. Hillary has been studiously avoiding a press conference for

1:11.4

nearly a year now. She won't answer difficult questions. She's still leading by big margins in the

1:15.7

key swing states, and everybody knows the only possible event that could change that math would be a

1:20.3

series of really bad debates against Donald Trump. What if all of this is a precursor to her

1:25.7

declaring she simply will not debate anyone associated with the alt-right, that it would be inappropriate to take seriously a guy whose campaign CEO has green-lit pieces praising the alt-right. The media would probably side with her. I mean, they always do. After whining about it for a little bit, Trump would fulminate that Hillary's afraid of him, and he'd be right, but he'd also look like a sore loser,

1:44.3

a guy trailing and desperate. He'd become Ted Cruz in the last part of the primary campaign. You remember Ted Cruz in the last part of the primary campaign? He was trailing around Trump saying he won't debate me because he's afraid and he looked desperate. Well, that would be Trump now, furiously attempting to pin down Hillary so that he can fight her, and she'd give him the high hat. Well, perhaps that's not the agenda at all. Maybe this is all just a cynical play

2:03.6

by Hillary to link conservative. to pin down Hillary so that he can fight her, and she'd give him the high hat. Well, perhaps that's not the agenda at all.

2:02.2

Maybe this is all just a cynical play by Hillary to link conservatives with the alt-right,

2:06.2

crippling them down the road.

2:07.6

But it's not implausible to think we may be watching the groundwork for an election gambit

2:11.8

that actually could seriously finish Donald Trump's chances at the presidency.

2:15.5

I'm Ben Shapiro.

2:16.2

This is The Ben Shapiro Show.

2:26.4

All righty. So, we begin by thanking a brand new sponsor. We have a brand new sponsor,

2:31.3

Tracker.com. This is, it's actually TheTracker.com. This is the coolest thing ever. So, if there is conflict in my marriage, it largely springs from the fact that I'm constantly

2:35.1

losing my wallet and my keys. My wife is constantly losing her phone. Now that you're carrying around all these objects all the time, you tend to lose them. That's what the tracker does. The tracker makes losing things a thing of the past. It's a coin-sized device really, really small. It's like two quarters stacked. and you attach it to anything like keys or wallets or bags or computers,

2:53.2

and you pair it to your smartphone, you attach it to anything, and you can find the location with just the tap of a button. That's the entire deal with the tracker. And what happens if you lose your phone? Well, then you press the button on the tracker, you know, from your keys, and your phone rings, even if the phone is on silent, the phone rings. It overrides the don't ring feature of the phone, which is amazing. It's going to

3:10.7

save me so much stress in my marriage. Seriously, they have over 1.5 million devices. They have the largest crowd GPS network in the world. So even if you left your device or your wallet a mile away, six miles away, it'll still show up. You don't have to lose anything ever again. Go to the tracker.com and you use promo code Ben. That helps keep everybody here in business. But tracker code, Ben, it's the tracker.com. You get 30% off your entire order, which is really a fantastic deal. Again, this is a device that I've been using, and it is a terrific device, and I highly recommend it. It saved a lot of stress in my marriage, and I assume that it will save more. Well, today we have so much to get to, so much to get to here on the Ben Shapiro show. But we'll begin with my good friend Adam Carolla. So Adam Carolla stopped by yesterday. We had a chance to talk to him about he's got a new movie that's coming out. It's a documentary about Paul Newman. We talked to him about that and about some of his other films and about what it's like to be a conservative in Hollywood because he really is in Hollywood. Here's the interview that we did with Adam Carolla. Now joining us here on the Ben Shapiro show is one of my favorite human beings and the funniest person that I've ever had the pleasure of sitting in a room with Adam Carolla.

4:14.7

Adam, of course, is the host of the world famous Adam Carolla show. The Pirateship is available at Adamcarola.com. Adam, thanks much for joining the show. Thanks, Ben. Appreciate it. Yes, I'm going to have you on, mainly because, number one, because it's always a pleasure to have you on, but second of all, because we're now

working in a political system where it seems like the Republicans and Democrats are both
