Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Cooner Country. Okay, I've got a jam backed
show for you today. As I just said in our
pre show Facebook hit, we always do a quick hit
for Facebook to tease a little bit of the upcoming show. Today,
I've got some scandals for you, the Doage team. You

(00:21):
are not going to believe what Elon and his Doge
Avengers have now uncovered. It's get worse. It gets worse
every single day, and the scandal now is by far
the biggest in American history, and it's only getting bigger

(00:42):
and bigger and bigger. But first, my friends, Hollywood now
goes all in on portraying Trump's supporters as a bunch
of racists and white supremacists. Tom Hanks, you know him,
the Hollywood megastar, the Hollywood superstar. Frankly, I don't think

(01:03):
he's done a movie worth seeing in about thirty years,
but let that go. Really, what has this guy done
for the last two three decades? Well, Tom Hanks appeared
on Saturday Night Live. It was part of their one
hundred and fiftieth anniversary special in which he was part
of a sketch and he plays a character called Doug,

(01:27):
and Doug is a Trump supporter. And so there's Tom
Hanks playing Doug part of a game called Black Jeopardy
where I guess the contestants are black and the host
is black. But Doug is the only white guy and
he's the only white Trump supporter.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
And Doug, you know, I E.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Tom Hanks is dressed as a complete slob. He's got
his Trump make America Great Again red cap on. And
not only is Doug a slob, but the way he's portrayed,
he's a redneck. He's racist, he's bigoted, he's ignorant, he's stupid.

(02:12):
In other words, he's a hick. He's a dumb, racist hick.
That's exactly how he's portrayed. And I just want to
give you a taste of the sketch. This is what
Hollywood thinks is funny. This is what they consider great humor.
This is what they think makes people, you know, bust

(02:35):
the gut as they watch this. And you know, on
the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of Saturday Night Live.
So the the one hundred and fiftieth season, roll cut twelve, Mike,
Oh well.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
Now speaking to church, Can I say something if more
folks wait to church?

Speaker 2 (03:01):
We wouldn't be in this mess we're in now, you.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Know what, I agree with? What you dog. I'd like
to shake your hand, sir, here we go. No, no, no, no,
oh no no, it's just a handshake. You welcome to
black jep All.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Right, well, thank you, my mind, my brother, you mayboe.
I'll start a show for you.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
To come on and we'll call it what Jeopardy.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
No, we don't need it.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
We don't need it.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
I mean it's disgusting, it's absolutely disgusting. So he answers
the question correctly, this, you know, the Doug character Tom Hanks,
and then starts chiming just you know, out of the blue,
starts going on about.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
More people need to go to church.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
If they want our church, they would be no problems
in our country. And then the actor playing the black
black Jeopardy host, he's obviously black, walks up and says, hey,
I want to shake your hand. I want to congratulate
you on that, and the racist Tom Hanks character Doug, no, no, no,
we'll my hand. No, no, I don't want to shake

(04:02):
your hand. Oh I'm so uncomfortable to shake your hand.
I don't want to shake a black man's hand, and
then of course he grudgingly eventually does, and then he says,
maybe we should do white Jeopardy, and they're like, no,
we don't need white jeopardy. You know, you white people
have enough already. So that's that's the This is ha

(04:22):
ha ha ha, like prity. This is your idea of comedy.
First of all, really, seriously, unless you're Bill in Sudbury
or frank and Gloucester, who the hell finds this funny? No, really,
unless you're this complete out of touch, woke moron who

(04:45):
hates Trump's supporters and just loves to just go on,
and it's getting old and it's getting tired, and frankly,
it's getting really repetitive about Trump's supporters being a bunch
of racists.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
Who finds this funny? Seriously, who finds this funny? It's
not funny. It's not even close to being funny. That's
number one, number two. So this is now what the
liberal elites really think. This is what Hollywood thinks. This
is what most of the liberal cultural elites, This is

(05:23):
what they really think. You asked that Doug represents to them,
The character played by Tom Hanks represents to them the
essence of who Trump MAGA, the Trump America First Movement,
The MAGA movement is a bunch of dumb, ignorant, racist
quote unquote hicks or quote unquote rednecks.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
The only thing they didn't miss, you know, was that
he had teeth. They should have had him with no teeth.
That's it. That's the only thing really, with a hay
seed in his mouth like that. That's literally that's the
only thing they left out. It's bigoted. It's you want
to talk about discrimination, it's discriminatory against Trump's supporters. And

(06:09):
they're so stupid that they don't realize that they're literally
now insulting over half the country. Trump didn't just win
the electoral College. He didn't just run the table on
all the swing states. Trump won the popular vote. So
what they're actually saying is that the overwhelming majority of

(06:31):
Americans are racists. Just think about Okay, now, if this
is your political cultural strategy going forward, then good, good,
honestly good, because you're gonna keep losing landslide after landslide
after landslide after landslide, so you still don't get it.

(06:56):
Secure borders is not racist, Ending inflation is not racist.
Deporting tens of millions of criminal, violent, illegal aliens from
our country is not racist. Ending the war between Russia
and Ukraine and the possibility of World War III is

(07:18):
not racist. Rebuilding our military is not racist. Lowering crime
is not racist. Making us energy independent and energy dominant
is not racist. I could go on, but you see
the point. Having lower taxes for everybody and a booming

(07:41):
economy that works for the middle working class is not racist.
And I guess they didn't get the memo. So let
me send it to the left and the liberals one
more time, to the moonbats. Trump has created a multi
race show, multi ethnic, majority working class coalition political coalition.

(08:07):
He won with black men, he won the Latino vote,
he won Asians, he won Jews, he won women, he
won men, he won the working class. So this, you know,
this meme of Trump is a racist. All Trump supporters
are racists. They're all white supremacists.

Speaker 6 (08:29):
You know.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
It reminds me when that that moonbat, well, he doesn't
call that often anymore. I guess he's been a little
bit intimidated. But when Bill and Sudbury called maybe a
couple of weeks ago, and we were discussing what was
going on at the FAA, the Federal Aviation Administration, and
how under boodhage Age and under Biden, incredibly they put

(08:54):
together a program to try to hire people with mental disabilities, epilepsy,
emotional disabilities, physical disabilities, people who had no business being
in a cockpit or being air traffic controllers. And Bill

(09:15):
calls the show and says, what Trump is really saying,
wink wink, is he doesn't want a female black woman
to be working as an air traffic controller. Again with
no evidence. Hey, like this Tom Hanks character. There's no
evidence to any of this that Trump supporters are racist

(09:36):
or that Trump is racist, none whatsoever. And I'm thinking
to myself, you know, this is beyond Trump derangement syndrome.
Now at this point, it really is, because if you
know anything about Donald Trump, you'll know that when he
ran the Trump Empire, the construction financial empire in New

(09:58):
York City, literally one of his top vice presidents was
a black woman, that in fact, he hired many women,
and many blacks and many black females. So if this
man was somehow a closet KKKR, a closet white supremacist,

(10:19):
tell me why would he hire women? Why would he
hire minority women. Why would he Why would he hire
so many Jews? Why would his daughter have married a
Jew converted to Judaism? And Trump has multiple Jewish grandchildren
and by the way, the best friend Israel has ever had.

(10:42):
But it doesn't matter. Facts don't matter, reality doesn't matter.
Evidence doesn't matter. And so they're going to continue now
all the way. Okay, I want to play it one
more time. It's making the rounds. Everybody, the whole really,
the whole countries talking about it. It's gone viral. So
the fiftieth anniversary of Saturday Night Live, I haven't watched

(11:07):
it in decades, but at least thirty years.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Thirty years.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
I can just tell you personally, I don't pay attention
to Saturday Night Live. I didn't find it funny thirty
years ago. I haven't found it funny ever since. To me,
it's politics masquerading his comedy and it's not funny. So,
and this is exactly why. So on their fiftieth anniversary
they get Tom Hanks, you know, very famous Hollywood actor

(11:37):
has done very you know, a lot of important films,
a lot of recognized and very popular films, although hasn't
frankly done much in a while, but let that go.
So he plays this racist Trumps supporter on SNL's fiftieth anniversary.
He's a racist, he's a swob. He's on putting this

(11:58):
in air quotes. He's you know, playing a neck or
some kind of a quote unquote ignorant hick. And he's
at a game show. It's a black game show called
Black Jeopardy, and he gets the right answer about religion.
But then he starts to lecture people how we need
more God and we need more religion and if we

(12:21):
had more religion, we wouldn't be the problems.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
That we're in today. Hey.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
So basically they're trying to portray him as a quote
unquote ignorant Bible thumper. Hey, that's the attack that they're
trying to level against Tom Hanks. That's the character they're
trying to create. And then the host says, oh, I
agree with you. I agree with you. The black host
and the skit and he walks over to Tom Hanks
to shake his hand, and of course Tom Hanks doesn't

(12:50):
want to the character, does it Gary or sorry?

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Is it Doug?

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Anyway, Doug doesn't want to shake his hand. Doug does
want to shake his hand. He's very nervous. He's very
reluctant because he's a racist. He eventually does, but you know,
he's the Tom Hanks character is very, very nervous. In
other words, Trump's supporters are white supremacists. Trump's supporters are racist.

(13:19):
Trump's supporters are ignorant slobs. Roll cut twelve, Mike, Oh.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
I'll thank you.

Speaker 7 (13:27):
Hey.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
Now speaking to church, can I say something? If more
folks went to church, we wouldn't be in this mess
we're in now.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
You know what. I agree with what you doug. I'd
like to shake your hand, sir. Here we go. No no, no, no,
oh no no, it's just a handshake. You're welcome to
black any time.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
All right, Well, thank you, my mind, my brother.

Speaker 4 (13:49):
You know, maybe I'll start a show for you to
come on and we'll call it what jeoparded.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
No, we don't need it. We don't need it.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
I mean, this is stupid. It's stupid. It's I told you,
it's for the bills in Sudbury, the Franks and Gloucester.
I mean, it's it's bad comedy. It's not funny, it's insulting.
You can see. This is for liberal snobs. That's what
this is for woke, liberal, out of touch snobs who

(14:21):
like to make fun and mock and ridicule Trump's supporters.
They've never met a Trump's supporter. They have no idea
what a Trump's supporter is like who they really are,
and so it's a caricature of a Trump's supporter. Now,
the reason why I think this is very interesting is

(14:43):
Tom Hanks has gotten tremendous blowback over this. MAGA rightfully
is not taking this line down, and he's being attacked
for being condescending, for being arrogant, for frankly being bigoted
himself against Trump's supporters, and for being incredibly out of touch.

(15:04):
And I want you to listen now to Elon Musk,
because Elon, in an interview said, look among the liberal
crowd that I run with.

Speaker 8 (15:16):
The.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Way they look at Trump's supporters as these bunch of
neo Nazi, white supremacist, racist, ignorant rednecks. The portrait that
they have is literally diametrically opposed to reality. But if

(15:41):
you just mentioned that you're voting for Trump, he says,
when I said this to some of my friends, it's
like somebody injected them with meth and or they got rabies.
They just went apoplectic. They just lost they lost their
collective minds. They started to break down, almost break out

(16:01):
in hives. Listen now to Elon Musk saying, I was
at a friend's birthday party. This was just before the
twenty twenty four election, and all I had to do
was mention Trump. And you are not gonna believe how
all of these liberals and moonbats reacted. Roll cut four, Mike.

(16:25):
We're having technical difficulties. Okay, let's see if Mike can
fix those technical difficulties. But basically, in a nutshell, according
to Elon, it's like somebody shot them with a dart
loaded with meth and rabies, and they just started to
lose their minds. They just they went rabbit. They just
went absolutely rabbit. Okay, you got it, Mike, roll it.

Speaker 9 (16:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
I mean I used to be adored by the left
based killed huh. I mean, let's I really did it
a little bit.

Speaker 7 (16:59):
Ivan.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
This whole sort of like you know it is.

Speaker 10 (17:02):
They call it like Trump duration syndrome, and I don't know,
you don't realize how real this is until like it's
you can't reason with people. So like I was at
a friend's birthday party in Ali, just a birthday dinner
and there was like a nice, quiet dinner and everything
was everyone was behaving normally. And then happened to mention
this is before the election, like a month or two before,
after mention the president's name, and it was like they

(17:23):
got shot with a dart in the jugular that.

Speaker 3 (17:25):
Contained like methamphetamine.

Speaker 7 (17:27):
And Raby's okay, And I'm like wow, and I'm like
what is Guys like you just can't have like a
normal conversation.

Speaker 10 (17:34):
And it's like it's like that to become completely irrational.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
He's completely right, They just become they lose their collective minds.
They become completely irrational, yelling, screaming, starlight ross out tight helpler, helpler, helplore, helplor.
And this is and now this is the kind of
drek that's Saturday Night Live is producing about Trump supporters. Now,

(18:03):
what I'm telling you is this, they would never do
this for the supporters of any other president. I'm telling
you they never would do anything like this. To be
this nakedly bigoted, this nakedly discriminatory, this you want to
talk about painting with a broad brush. To be this
openly insulting and vile, and so, look, I understand Tom

(18:26):
Hanks's career has been going down down, you know, downhill
for a long time. Six one seven two six six
sixty eight sixty eight. Okay, let me ask you a
couple of questions. Want to open it up to the
great phone lines? Did you see the skit? I'm just curious,
do you watch Saturday Night Live? The Left ax like

(18:48):
it's got still tremendous amount of cultural power, that people
still watch it, that it still has a lot of
influence in shaping people's views and perceptions and attitudes. Frankly,
I don't think so. I think you want to know
why their ratings are in the toilet. This is why
their ratings are in the toilet. They're just not funny.
There's no comedic value, and they've they're basically political activists,

(19:13):
democrat activists, left wing, hardcore left wing activists, woke idiots
really masquerading as comedians. And I don't know what is
funny about denigrating, mocking, vilifying, and demonizing Trump supporters.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
You know, I'm a racist.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
I hate black people, I hate brown people, I hate
damn juice. I don't wash, I don't shower. I haven't
brushed my teeth in forty years. Yeah, I voted for Trump,
that's what.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
But I am.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
I'm Tom Hanks, and I think I'm being funny. Hey,
that's really that's the skit in a nutshell, that's the skit.
I don't shake no black man's hand. You understand. I'm
also religious and stupid. So I'm telling you we need
to go back to relig and things were better under Religon.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Where's my hay ste I need it in my mouth.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
So this is how they try to portray us, and
how they try to portray seventy seven almost seventy eight
million Americans who voted for Trump. Now, I'm telling you,
Hollywood's gonna go bankrupt. You keep this up. No one's
gonna watch your movies, no one's gonna watch your shows.
They're already in the process of going bankrupt. I guess

(20:53):
they haven't learned a thing now. Just to me, this
is clear discrimination. Cannot say this about any other group
of people and get away with it. So I think,
as I said before the break, Hollywood has declared war
on us. Tom Hanks has declared war on us, and

(21:15):
make no mistake about it. He was a big Biden's supporter,
a big Obama supporter, a big Kamala Harris supporter. So
he plays on the screen at times, these sweet all
American characters. But this guy is one nasty liberal globalist

(21:37):
and he puts big money behind his politics. And now
he's done this sketch to really try to taint and
dirty up Trump's supporters. Well, I think it's time we
declare war on him. Boy caught all of his movies.
Don't watch a single thing with him in it.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Now.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
I know he's got a gazillion dollars, but what these
people care about is always the fame and being relevant.
Make him irrelevant. If you don't watch his movies and
you don't watch his shows, and you don't give him
any attention whatsoever, it's going to eat them up like

(22:19):
a cancer. And I think it's time that we taught
these Hollywood leftists, these limousine liberals, a lesson shut up
and act. We're not interested in your stupid politics. And
if you're going to insult America and Americans, then you
know what, We're gonna boycott you with our wallet. And

(22:41):
maybe if Hollywood goes bankrupt, they're finally going to learn
the lesson. So my question to you, what do you
make now of Hollywood and its despicable portrayal of Trump supporters?
And let me even broaden it a little bit more.
Have you met liberals who genuinely believe in what Tom

(23:04):
Hanks and Hollywood is peddling or what Elon said that
if you mentioned Trump or say anything positive about him,
they start to act like they have rabies, that they're
really they truly treat us and think of us as
a bunch of racist, white supremacist moral reprobates Neanderthals. Have

(23:29):
you ever been treated by a liberal or have you
ever heard liberals talking in a way similar to what
Tom Hanks acted on the screen? And what the Hollywood
elites think of us? Are they really that ignorant and
that stupid? Six one seven two six six sixty eight

(23:50):
sixty eight lines are loaded. Mark, you're going to kick
us off in Medford. Thanks for holding Mark, and as always.

Speaker 3 (23:59):
Welcome, Good morning, Jeff.

Speaker 11 (24:02):
So, first of all, Jeff, Saturday Night Live has sucked
now for about twenty years.

Speaker 9 (24:09):
Okay, that show's not even irrelevant anymore.

Speaker 11 (24:11):
I don't even know how people still watch it, but
I did watch it just to see the old guys
that used to be on that show that were actually funny.
But don't you find it hilarious? Jeff said about half
the people on that guest list Saturday night, and that
was sitting in the audience. What does the same people
that said when Trump wins they were leaving the country,
but they're still there. They're still there. And you know what, Jeff,

(24:36):
it just goes to show you that even a liberal
whack job move that, like Tom Hanks, if you give
him enough money, even he'll put on a maga hat.
I'm surprised as head didn't catch on fire.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Mark, what did you think of the skid itself and
his portrayal essentially of you? I mean you specifically, but
a Trump supporter, you you know me, this audience, the
seventy seven almost seventy eight million Americans who voted for Trump,
what did you think of his portrayal of us stupid jets?

Speaker 11 (25:12):
He's acting like they say we're acting, you know what
I mean, they're doing the stuff that they say we're doing,
which we're not. And these people are such freaking hypocrites.
And as far as uh, what Trump and Musk of
finding out with Doge. Anybody's that has a problem and

(25:38):
that's upset about finding out where our money is going
or not going, and they fall under the category jet
of a special kind of freaking stupid.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
I agree, no, Mark, I agree, and look, and I
think this is where the left now, whether it's Hollywood
or the are really dangerously out of touch. I don't
know if you've seen now the approval ratings for Trump.
They're way over seventy percent. He's now forget He's much
more popular now than he ever was in his first term.

(26:14):
He's now one of the most popular presidents ever ever.
The American people love what he's doing with Doge. They
love what he's doing with the border. They love what
he's doing with energy, they love what he's doing with crime.
They love what he's doing with banning men from women's
sports and locker rooms and showers, and I could go

(26:36):
on and on. I mean, they this is becoming one
of the most popular effective presidencies in American history. So
they look even more unhinged and more deranged and more
out of touch. Honestly, you're right, Tom Hanks made a
fool of himself. The guy looks like an absolute idiot.
Mark as always, thank you so much for that call. Agree.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
Our Western PA correspondent Dave in Pennsylvania, Thanks for holding Dave,
and welcome.

Speaker 9 (27:11):
Dave, Jeff, Good morning, good noting, Jeff, Jeff.

Speaker 12 (27:14):
If they keep up down this road, the Democrats and
the deep state and the rhinos. Look at Mitch McConnell.
He's a perfect example we're talking about this morning. You
know he's gonna are in his name rhino, Jeff. They
didn't end up losing most seats in the House come
this midterm, and it's going to be a historical landmark
because usually the midterms of the current president, they usually

(27:36):
lose seats. In my corrective, yes you pizzas, Oh.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
Yes, no, you're right.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
And Dave, I want to ask you this, what is
the political cultural strategy to tell the American people, the
majority of the American people, now, you're all a bunch
of racist redneck hicks, you're racist white supremacist groups.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
Like what's the so pooh, pooh pooh, keep.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Spitting in the faces of Americans and what they're gonna
vote for you?

Speaker 2 (28:07):
Is that their strategy?

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Because if it is, this isn't You're right, They're gonna
lose even more seats.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
Final word to you, Dave.

Speaker 12 (28:15):
And I mean, Jeff. Sorry, here's the thing. You know,
they think they had forgotten about the USA thing that
the media has received a lot of money. I'm wouldn't
be surprised that Saturday the Nightlife didn't receive any money
from the USA, like the New York Times, the Associated
Press and all the other ones. But Jeff, you know,
they're gonna find out that they think we're stupid and

(28:37):
the other ones that are actually dumb, the other ones
with all the college degrees and think they're smarter than
than everybody else. And guess what, Jeff, they can have
a college degree in basket weaving me and you get
a PhD in common sense, buddy, you know. And that's
what it boils down to.

Speaker 1 (28:52):
Oh, Dave, they lack common sense. I think honestly, they
lack moral decency. And to attack you, to attack me,
to attack us in that way, in that kind of
a personal you know, the kind of vilification. These people
are sick. Okay, my friends, listen to the new iHeartRadio app.

(29:16):
With preset buttons, you can set the app to play
the Kooner Report automatically. Let me ask all of you
this and please be as honest and candid with me
as possible. Are you offended, like, are you personally offended
with the portrayal of a Trump supporter, the you know,

(29:40):
the demonization, the denigration of Trump supporters that was portrayed
by Tom Hanks on that fiftieth anniversary of Saturday Night Live,
that sketch that we're just a bunch of dumb racist
whites supremisist you know, Hicks quote unquote swabs really a

(30:06):
bunch of racist, Nazi loving swabs. Are you offended or
do you just don't care what Tom Hanks thinks of us,
what Saturday Night Live thinks of us, what Hollywood thinks
of us. And by the way, I agree with almost
everyone who's been texting into the show. Seven zero four

(30:28):
seven zero seven zero four seven zero is the text number,
and those messaging me on Messenger and emailing the Coooner man.
I think there's no question money has been flowing to
Hollywood from the government. We're finding out and I got
trust me, I've got a scandal for you. Holy mackerel,
You're not gonna believe now what Musk and his doach

(30:50):
team have now unearthed. You're not gonna believe it, but
I wouldn't be shocked that if you know, billions of
dollars have not been flowing into powerful directors, powerful actors,
powerful organizations in Hollywood and in television because the way

(31:12):
they've been hating Trump and the way they've been mercilessly,
ruthlessly attacking him and his supporters, they've got to be
on the take. So it wouldn't shock me at all.
In fact, I'm telling you it's ninety nine point nine
percent likely that Hollywood's also been on the gravy train
six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.

(31:33):
Are you offended? Are you insulted? Or do you not care?
And is it time to boycott Tom Hanks and Hollywood?
I say yes, what say you? Bob in Plymouth? Thanks
for holding Bob, and.

Speaker 8 (31:50):
Welcome Jill, Thanks for taking my call. You know, do
these people ever hear the addies quit while you're behind?
I am so sick of these people with this nuns now.
I recorded Saturday Night Live on Saturday Night because I
wanted to see the old skits. Right, I'm gonna race
it now. Don't even about looks that I haven't looked

(32:10):
at it yet. I'm just gonna race it. To do
that to us is it's just so hurtful. I mean,
I used to think Tom Hanks was fantastic as an actor,
but after this last episode, he's done with me. I'm sorry,
no more, Tom Hanks, nothing, Bob.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Were you person I'm just curious, were you personally offended?

Speaker 8 (32:33):
Absolutely? And even I haven't even seen it, just your description.
I'll never watch anything he makes again.

Speaker 6 (32:39):
Never.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
You know, Bob, this is what I don't get, you know.
Michael Jordan famously said, you know, Republicans buy sneakers too,
meaning I'm not going to offend half the country. I
want to sell sneakers. In other words, you know, I'm
not just a great athlete. I'm a smart businessman. So
I want to sell Air Jordan, Nike sneakers. I'm not
gonna go out of my to make fun of Democrats

(33:01):
or make fun of Republicans, or make fun of independents,
or why would I do that. I want their money. Hollywood, ultimately,
if they don't have enough people who are gonna go
buy pay a ticket to go see one of their
movies and buy some popcorn in the soda or whatever.
Eventually they're gonna go bankrupt, They're gonna go kaput. Doesn't

(33:22):
Tom Hanks understand that that when you're you know, when
you're giving the middle finger to seventy seven almost seventy
eight million voters, you're not just attacking Trump, You're literally
attacking those who voted for Trump, literally and mocking them
in the most disgusting, heinous, offensive way possible. Doesn't that

(33:45):
idiot realize hmm, they're not gonna buy another ticket from
me to see any of my movies. And it's not okay,
he's got the money. I get it. He can, you know,
live in luxury for the rest of his life. But
don't these people want to remain famous. Don't they want
to remain relevant? Don't they want to have a hit movie?

(34:06):
Don't they want to still remain popular? Or Bob? Are
they so blinded by their ideology, their liberalism that they
don't even understand their own basic self interest? Flora's yours, Bob?
Final word?

Speaker 2 (34:21):
What say you?

Speaker 8 (34:23):
Interesting? Is if Vance became president, which I think he might,
they'll do the same thing to him. And the guy
has done nothing wrong but improve his whole life. He
started with nothing, and they'll degrade him for no reason.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
I agree, Bob. I agree, they're gonna hate Vance, They're
gonna hate j D as much as they hate Trump.
Look what they're doing to Elon. I mean, they hate
him now as much as Trump. So anything that advances
an America first, populist, patriotic agenda, they will destroy you,

(35:01):
and they will destroy anyone who supports them. Bob, thank
you very much for that call. Victor in Marylyn. Thanks
for holding Victor, and welcome.

Speaker 6 (35:12):
Good morning America's talk show host go National.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
Thank you, God, bless you, Thank you, Victor. What did
you make of the whole Tom Hanks as his skiz,
his sketch, his skit, and the way he portrayed you,
the way he portrayed me, the way he portrayed all
of us.

Speaker 6 (35:34):
Okay, I'm blind, so I don't watch television anymore because
it's too visual. One thing you got to remember about liberals,
they're always looking to get their feelings hurt. I went
through this with my former wife was liberal, and the
least little thing would offend her. I don't care what

(35:59):
people say about me. I've been called a racist, and
my line is, how can I be a racist when
I can't see you, and that stops them right in
their tracks. Now I'm gonna bind because I have to
depend on my neighbors to help me get things done,
like take me to the Safe Way, for example, to

(36:22):
get groceries. So I have to watch what I say.
But they know I'm a conservative, and I guess they're
tolerating me because I've been in this house for fifty
three years, maybe a little bit longer about the house
in seventy one, so I've seen the neighborhood come and go,

(36:43):
and right now, my neighbor across the street's she does
not like Trump at all, but she's starting to face
reality and is starting to ask questions like how come
you like Trump? And I said, well, Trump reminds me
of how my father brought me up. Nobody really liked
him that much, but he got the job done by

(37:05):
raising me and not feeling sorry for myself because I'm blind,
and made me get a job when I turned twenty one.
He says, you're not going to be a bum and
sit on your butt and collect welfare. You're going to
work just like everybody else did. So, like I said,

(37:26):
the liberals, they're always looking to get their feelings hurt.
I'm offended by this. I'm offended by this. I'm going
to be seventy eight. I don't care what people say
about me anymore.

Speaker 1 (37:39):
Well you shouldn't, Victor. Look, you've not just walked talked
to talk. You've walked the walk. And you know you're
a man who's blind with a serious disability. And look
what you You've made something of yourself. You've worked hard,
you've paid taxes, you've contributed to society or an avid
talk radio listener, obviously a very intelligent, articulate man. Look,

(38:01):
I think you should be immensely proud of everything you've
achieved in your life. And I love your answer. Trump
reminds me of my father and my father's America, which is,
don't make excuses for yourself. You know, no matter what,
go out work, don't be a bum, don't be on welfare.
And if you can work, work, if you can contribute, contribute,

(38:25):
and no excuses. And that's and I think ultimately that's
what they hate about Trump. Trump really is John Wayne's America.
He's the old America, the historic America, the real America,
and that America is coming back and they don't know

(38:45):
what to do, and so what they all they have
left is satire and ridicule and mockery and cheap insults. So, okay,
insult us, mock us, make fun of us. It's all
a lie. I don't recognize that person that Tom Hanks played.
I don't. I've never met. I can't tell you how
many Trump supporters I've met in my life. And not

(39:07):
only am I am I a Trump supporter, my wife
and you know, even my children. And but I'm saying
people that I meet in this great audience. It doesn't
matter at events, at grocery stores, at where I don't care,
movie theaters, shopping malls, I'm restaurants. I meet them everywhere.
I've never ever in my life met one person that

(39:27):
comes anywhere close to this character being portrayed by Tom Doug.
The character being race is Doug. The character being portrayed
by Tom Hanks. I've never seen that. I've never seen that.
So this is what I mean. They's this is a
creation of their fevered imagination, their sick, twisted Trump derangement

(39:52):
syndrome imagination. Look, I go back to this and thank
you very much for that call. Victor there's something about
the liberal mind. And let me I've referenced him once already,
let me reference him again, Bill and Sudbury. This is
why I have him on. Many of you always complain, well, Jeff,

(40:12):
why do you have him on the guy? That's a
waste of time. He says the stupidest things. That's the
liberal mind. I want you to hear the liberal mind
for a couple of minutes. And it's a scary thing.
Liberalism truly is a mental disorder. But there's something else.
He was diagnosed with cancer. I'm just going by what
he told me. And he calls the show to let

(40:36):
us know that he's got cancer. I believe it was
rectal cancer or colon cancer or whatever. And I said,
who wha, who woa Bill. I don't care what your
point is about.

Speaker 9 (40:44):
Now.

Speaker 1 (40:45):
I'm worried about you. I'm worried about your health. Are
you're going to be okay? And as he's talking about well,
his doctor says he's gonna be fine. You're gonna give
him treatment, you know, hopeful everything will work out. The
text line is going crazy. And these are all Cooner
country listeners. You you know, Trump's supporters who are saying, Hey, look,

(41:07):
I disagree with Bill on every issue, and he really
gets under my skin. But I want to give him
one hundred dollars. I want to give him five hundred dollars.
I want to give him two hundred and fifty dollars. Jeff,
how do I give money to him to help him
with his chemotherapy, to help him deal with his cancer?
Because we don't want Bill to die of cancer. So

(41:27):
I say to Bill, Bill, I just want you to
know there's a tremendous outpouring of support. A lot of
people in this audience who disagree with you politically on
almost everything, are saying that they would like to give
you some financial help because they don't want you to,
God forbid, you know, die of cancer. They want you
to tackle and beat this cancer. Bill's answer was he

(41:52):
doesn't take money from neo Nazis and white supremacists. That
that was his answer, And I remember I was shocked.
I said, are you a normal like are you okay? So, people,
many of them on fixed income, many of them elderly,

(42:14):
many of them on Social Security, are willing to give
you one hundred, two hundred, three hundred, in some cases
five hundred dollars check to help you with your rectal
colon cancer. And your response is to spit in their
faces and call them hitler loving Nazis and white supremacists.

(42:38):
And this is when I told him to his face,
you are a totalitarian. Fuck you are a totalitarian's come back,
that's what you are. You can't recognize the humanity in
other people because if you know anything about history, and

(42:59):
obviously you don't, Nazis saw their political opponents as rats
to be exterminated, not as human beings to give them
a two three, four hundred dollars check to help them
with their cancer. Like, if you can't understand this most
basic fundamental point, then there's something seriously wrong with you

(43:21):
in the head. Now, I'm telling you that he loved
that Saturday Night portrayal because that's how he paints me,
That's how he paints Trump, That's how he paints every
supporter or every listener on the show. So what I'm
saying is, even when they have cancer and you would

(43:42):
think this would humble them, and you offer them in
their hour of need much needed help and assistance, care, compassion, love, money,
his answer is I hate you.

Speaker 2 (44:01):
I hate you.

Speaker 1 (44:04):
You are Hitler. You will always be Hitler. You will
die as Hitler. Now you can't reason with people like that.
That's what Elon Musk was trying to say. Now you're
dealing with people who are fundamentally irrational. They they're so
consumed with hatred and with propaganda. They've been so brainwashed

(44:28):
and indoctrinated that I'm sorry to say this, it's almost
like they've lost their souls. There's something, something human is gone,
it's missing. I want to play Elon one more time.
Russ in Boston is waiting. I'm gonna go to Russ,
but I want to play Elon one more time. This

(44:48):
is an interview with Sean Hannity along with Donald Trump.
It's both Musk and Trump, but it's Elon now talking
and he says, you know, I was at a friend's
birthday part. It was about maybe a month, two months
whatever before the twenty twenty four election. And these they
are all liberals because you know, Musk is a billionaire,
you know, a multi billionaire, so he runs with the
very liberal crowd. Billionaires on the whole tend to be globalists,

(45:12):
democrat and very very liberal. Think of Bill Gates, think
of Jeff bezos, think of George Sorrows. I could go
on and on and on and on. He says, So
we're having a great conversation and I just mentioned the
name Trump. I just mentioned his name. Listen to Elon

(45:34):
roll cut four.

Speaker 10 (45:36):
Mike, Yeah, I mean I used to be adored by
the left, you know, not less so they killed huh.
I mean Le's I really did it. I mean this
whole sort of like you know it is. They call
it like Trump duration syndrome, and I didn't know. You
don't realize how real this is until like it's you

(45:56):
can't reason with people. So like I was at a
friend's birthday party and just a birthday dinner and it
was like a nice quiet dinner and everything was everyone's
behaving normally, and they happened to mention this is before
the election, like a month or two before, after mentioned
the president's name, and it was like they got shot
with a dart in the juggular that contained like the
methamphetamine and Raby's.

Speaker 7 (46:15):
Okay, and they're like wow, and I'm like, what is Guys?

Speaker 10 (46:19):
Like you just can't have like a normal conversation, and
it's like it's it's like that they become completely irrational.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
He's right.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
I'm telling you, he's completely right. It's liberalism is a
mental disorder. They become completely irrational. They don't sit down
and say I don't like Trump. Okay, why wow A
B C D E.

Speaker 13 (46:39):
You know what?

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Say you and you have a discussion.

Speaker 2 (46:42):
No, he's right. They start foaming at the mouth.

Speaker 1 (46:48):
He's he's a white supremacist.

Speaker 2 (46:50):
He's gonna get us.

Speaker 3 (46:51):
All telt not.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
Hey, he's a not. Say he's a lot. Say it's like,
he's right. It's like Raby's. It's like the brain, it
just goes rabbit.

Speaker 1 (47:04):
You can't argue, you can't debate, you can't discuss with
these people. All you can do is feel sorry for him.
And the portrayal of Tom Hanks to bring it full
circle of this character, Doug, you know, the maga hat
wearing slob, the Trump supporter, the racist, hey d rube,
that was an actor on Rabies, that was an actor

(47:29):
on full exhibiting full Trump derangement syndrome. And I don't
think he realizes this, but professionally he just cut his
own throat. I will never see a Tom Hanks movie again.
And I'm telling you from the reaction. In the blowback,

(47:50):
seventy million Trump supporters will never see another Tom Hanks
movie again. So good move, genius. You just destroyed your career.
Russ in Boston, Thanks for holding Russ and welcome.

Speaker 9 (48:05):
You know, Jeff, the first thing I want to say
after what you just said, okay, is that, honestly.

Speaker 13 (48:10):
I am proud of being part of Kuna Country because
we are made of decent god.

Speaker 9 (48:16):
Feeling for giving people.

Speaker 13 (48:18):
And believe me, when it comes to character, it doesn't
get any better than that when it comes to character, Jeff,
for sure.

Speaker 9 (48:25):
You know now, during World War Two it was said
Harleywood goes to war. Today Hollywood goes to the toilet.
The majority of Hollywood actors take drugs and screw each
other in the trailers. They have no class whatsoever. Okay.
They are ungrateful fools with no class. Hardywood a network.

Speaker 13 (48:44):
TV does not get my time or my money. They
are that ignorant, politically stupid, and out of touch with
the common person. To the so called highly educated elitists,
they want to tell us how to live our lives
and our never confuse brilliance okay with education.

Speaker 9 (49:04):
Okay. The fact that they may be highly educated doesn't
mean that they're brilliant at all. And Jeff, no one
can offend me because I just discount assis and all
I want to be is judged by the content of
my character.

Speaker 1 (49:19):
Very well, said Russ, honestly as always to me, I'm
exactly the same. I don't care what these liberals think
about me, and I certainly don't care what Tom Hanks
thinks about me. But he's insulting you. He's insulting this audience.
You insult my audience. I'm sorry I get defensive because
you're right. When it comes to character, nobody beats this audience.

(49:42):
I'm telling you, I'm telling you take it to the bank,
and we deserve better than this. Hard working, patriotic, tax paying,
decent Americans deserve a hell of a lot better than this. Russ,
thank you very much, as always for your call. Rich In,
you're threading, Thanks for holding rich and.

Speaker 14 (50:02):
Welcome, Jeff, thanks for getting to my call. I've been
trying to reach you for so many months. It's just
great to be on with you. Number One, they need
to go after Trump, needs to go after Hollywood, after
their guns. They have been glorifying the use of guns.
The proliferation of the use of guns for years and years.

(50:25):
They probably made billions and billions and probably trillions of dollars.
You can't take your little bambinos to any movie without
seeing previews or publications all along the movie theater showing
the guns, the just it's unbelievable. You can't watch TV

(50:47):
at night without seeing almost every single commercial is just
another show with violence. The violence is mind boggling. What
we see on p B in the movies
