Ladies and gentlemen, the following segment of the podcast is presented exclusively by Hillsdale College.

Now, in its 175th year, Hillsdale is a truly independent institution.

We're learning as prized and intellectual enthusiasm as valued.

Thank you for listening, and my sincere appreciation to Hillsdale for their sponsorship.

He's here. He's here. Now broadcasting from the underground command post. Deep in the pals of a hidden bunker somewhere under the brick and steel of a non-descript building.

We've once again made contact with our leader, Mike. Love them.

Hello, everybody. Mark Lovane here. Our number 877-3813811-877-3813811. How about those Eagles, Mr. Producer?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. They were dropping balls left and right. It felt like it was New Year's every now. The ball coming down to me. Anyway, congratulations to Dallas.

It's getting tough to watch those Eagles games now, just being honest with you. So at 10 p.m. Eastern time, you watch my show.

I want to take a little time focusing on Willard Romney. As you know, I'm the clean up hitter, so I don't really get to listen to most of the other shows during the course of the day. I'm doing Levin TV, Life Libre de In Levin, writing, prepping for this program, and so forth. So I'm busy.

I catch them now and then here and there, but none today. And so it's a clean slate. Now Willard Romney, first of all, let's, let's, his name is Willard.

Now, if you were embarrassed by your name and you didn't want to be called Willard, wasn't that a movie about a rat? I think it was.

Well, there you go. A rat rather than a rhino. If you're going to change your name and have a nickname, why would you call yourself Mitt?

You know, Frank, Joe, Ben, Sam, Abdullah, Muhammad, but Mitt. Mitt Romney, maybe I like Willard better. Willard Mitt Romney.

Well, I've done a lot of studying on him today and yesterday and what he's up to, and he's up to no damn good.

And he's being praised by the media now. You can see the puff pieces. He's a real statesman. You see, ladies and gentlemen. He's independent now.

He's liberated. He's unleashed. He can be himself. Well, who is Mitt Romney?

When he ran for governor of Massachusetts, it got elected. He was a liberal Republican. Then he was positioning himself to run in the Republican primary for president. At the end of his term as governor, he started to move right.

Then when he ran for the nomination more than once of the Republican nomination, he called himself, and I quote, a severe conservative.

Then when he got the nomination and he ran against Barack Malhouse, Benito Obama, he lost because he ran a lousy campaign.

So in part, thanks to him, in major part, thanks to him, we got two terms of Obama.

Then during the nominating process, the Republican presidential nominating process in 2016, he gave a truly vicious speech against Trump.
