President Trump goes to Phoenix and things get wild.

ESPN decides that it has to shuttle away some Asian American dude named Robert Lee

because they don't want to offend people over the Confederacy.

And the media does something so stupid that it may get Trump reelected.

I'm Ben Shapiro. This is the Ben Shapiro show.

Okay, so I can't wait to discuss this ESPN story because it just demonstrates why no one is watching MSNBC with footballs ever again, why they are dying, why they deserve to go.

It's really horrifying.

Plus, we'll go through in detail, President Trump's Barnburner of a speech in Phoenix, Arizona last night. It was chock full of insanity and fun and joy and weirdness. It was all the things that make those who love Trump, love Trump, and all those who hate Trump, hate Trump. It was all of those things and more. And the media falls right into his trap every single time. We'll talk about all of those things. Plus, my favorite video ever

of a protester at Eddie Rally will play that. I may have to start off with that one, but before we even get to that, I first want to say thank you to our sponsors over at Helix Sleep. So, as I've told you a thousand times on this program, I am bad at sleep. It is one of the few things in life I'm bad. I'm amazing at everything, but I suck at sleep. Sleep is just not my thing until I got this

Helix sleep mattress. I suck at sleep. Sleep is

just not my thing until I got this Helix sleep mattress. So Helix sleep allows you go on their website,

helixleep.com, and you fill out their survey, which is basically which side do you like to sleep on,

do you sleep on your stomach or your back? Do you like the mattress to be breathable? Do you like to be

hard or soft? And then they run it through their proprietary algorithm and they send you directly to your house, their mattress. You take it out of the box,

you take it out of the plastic, and it inflates right in front of you because it's foam and you pop it on the bed and you're good to go. It is supremely comfortable, so comfortable in fact that we took what is a more expensive mattress and moved it out of our room and moved it into the other room. You can even get mattresses that have different settings for two sides of the bed. So for you and your spouse, if you have different levels of firmness or softness on the mattress that you enjoy, Heelick's sleep will allow you to do that as well. Also, you have 100 nights to try it out. If you don't like it, they'll pick it up for free and give you a 100% refunds. You have nothing to lose. Plus, the mattresses are less expensive

than you would have to go, then you would have to get if you went to some sort of retail place because they're cutting out the middleman. Helixleep.com slash Ben gets you $50 off your first order. That's helixsleep.com slash Ben. You spend at least a third of your life on that mattress

if you're lucky more. So helixleep.com slash Ben. You spend at least a third of your life on that mattress if you're lucky more.

So helixleep.com slash ben makes sure that you get that 50% discount off your order. Again, Helixleckesleap.com slash Ben. Use that slash Ben so they know that we sent you and they continue to advertise with us.

Okay. So there's so many great stories today to get to. I think I'm going to have to start with this story from ESPN because it's so insane.

So ESPN yesterday announced that they're broadcasting some college football game from the University of Virginia.

Now, as you recall, the situation in Charlottesville happened at the University of Virginia campus in Charlottesville.

And so they were going to broadcast this game, this football game,
