Summary

For those of you who’ve been eagerly awaiting the day I criticize President Donald Trump, today is your day! Listen as I revile and repudiate the following phrase from the State of the Union: “All Americans can be proud that we have more women in the workforce than ever before.” Well, I am not at all proud of that. And neither should you be. The President and his speechwriters were pandering to the high priests of Secular Fundamentalism. 98% of speech therapists are women, but well under 1% of construction industry jobs are held by women. Wives save their husbands from being hermits. Wives and moms build communities and neighborhoods. Huge numbers of wives, whose husbands earn enough, do enthusiastically quit the workforce. And these things are good for everyone other than Democrat Party (Yes! Call it that) politicians who’d rather tax two incomes. Also, hear my interview with Tom Ziglar, who just wrote a terrific new book, 'Choose To Win'. He is not only the son of the late, great Zig Ziglar, but he is also a cherished friend. We cover his book, growing up as the son of Zig, and the marriage of his parents. Secular Fundamentalism, the flip side of the Judeo-Christian Bible faiths, loathes anything with Biblical roots and nothing more than marriage and family. Their message to women is: “You don’t need a husband, all you need is the government.” Why are over 80% of women on welfare, single? Because that is exactly what radical socialists want. But there’s hope. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
