| 0:00.0 | Well, we got lots to get to. We get to the open border, the out of control board. Well, there is some control to border by the cartels. They have control there. But the whole thing is insane. We'll get to the CNN town hall, which wasn't really a town hall. So now they're making a million excuses for this town hall. You know, this is interesting. |
| 0:22.5 | When they go after Trump, sometimes it takes them a while to figure out what they're going to use. |
| 0:30.4 | So you remember when it all began? It was June of 2015. Donald Trump announced he was running for |
| 0:36.3 | president. He came down the escalator, |
| 0:40.0 | and he made that speech at Trump Tower, and everybody watched it, was on all the networks, |
| 0:44.8 | and nobody said a word about it. Media, Democrats, eh, they didn't say, nothing. Nothing bothered |

| 1:35.3 | It was just ridiculous. |
| 1:36.1 | But so now, apparently, if you watch last night today, what they've zeroed in now on the CNN town hall was his making fun of the |
| 1:47.1 | E. Gene Carroll case. First, he went through the, I don't even know her, it's a witch hunt, it's a, |
| 1:52.2 | you know, biased in Manhattan. But then he started to do a funny little comedy routine about, |
| 1:59.1 | and he's right, it's very funny. |
