Reaction & Commentary
YOU WERE ATTACKED RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. THAT DAY, WHEN YOU CAME DOWN THAT ESCALATOR, ON THIS ISSUE. >> I WAS HEARING ABOUT IT FROM A LOT OF PEOPLE, AND IT WAS ONE OF THE PRIMARY REASONS IN 2016 THAT IRAN, AND IRAN ON THE BORDER AND OTHER THINGS, BUT IRAN ON THE
BORDER LARGELY, AND WE FIXED THE PROBLEM, AND IN 2020 WASN’T EVEN A SUBJECT. I GO OUT AND SAY I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE BORDER, THEY WOULD SAY, YOU FIXED THE BORDER, NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE BORDER ANYMORE. NOW IT’S HAPPENED IS WE’VE HAD MILLIONS MORE VOTES IN THE FIRST TIME.
WE HAVE A SITUATION WHERE THIS BORDER MAKES 2016 LOOK LIKE BABY STUFF. IT’S PROBABLY THE WORST BORDER — NOT PROBABLY, IT IS THE WORST BORDER EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD. THERE’S NEVER BEEN A BORDER WHERE 15, 16, MAYBE 18 MILLION PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY CROSSED, AND
I THINK NOBODY HAS ANY IDEA WHAT THE NUMBER IS. THEY GOT-AWAYS, I DON’T KNOW WHAT THE GOT-AWAYS ARE. WE HAD MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, AND THEY COME FROM JAILS AND PRISONS, MENTAL INSTITUTIONS, AND A STEP ABOVE THAT, THE INSANE ASYLUMS. IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE. I DO HAVE TERRORISTS COMING.
I’VE NOTICED, AS SOMEBODY WATCHES YOUR SHOW A LOT, I THINK YOU DO A FANTASTIC JOB, BUT YOU SAY 100% CERTAIN. I HATE TO HEAR IT. THAT WE ARE GOING HAVE A BIG ATTACK AT SOME POINT. THEY ARE 100% CERTAIN. >> Sean: I PRAY THAT I’M WRONG. >> YOU ARE PROBABLY RIGHT.
IT’S A VERY SAD THING. BUT I’VE HEARD YOU SAY IT A FEW TIMES, AND I SAID, I’M NOT GOING TO DISPUTE IT. HOPE YOU ARE WRONG, BUT THERE IS CERTAINLY A GOOD CHANCE. THEY ARE COMING FROM NUMBERS IN COUNTRIES WE WOULDN’T BELIEVE. 28,000 FROM CHINA, ALL FIGHTING AGE.
YOU DON’T SEE WOMEN AND YOU DON’T SEE MEN MUCH OLDER THAN THAT. IT’S FROM 18-25, 26 YEARS OLD. THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON AND THEY ARE COMING FROM YEMEN THAT WE ARE BOMBING, COMING FROM THE CONGO, FROM PRISONS IN THE CONGO. THE ONLY GOOD THING IS IT MAKES OUR PRISONERS LOOK LIKE VERY
NICE PEOPLE, I WILL TELL YOU, BECAUSE THESE ARE ROUGH PEOPLE COMING IN. WHEN YOU SEE THEM FROM VENEZUELA FIGHTING, HAVING FISTFIGHTS, WE NEVER SAW THAT. YOU SEE COPS — A LOT OF BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO COPS, BUT YOU NEVER SAW PEOPLE STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WITH A FIST FIGHT.
IF THAT HAPPENED IN THEIR COUNTRY, THEY WOULD KILL THEM WITHIN SECONDS. THEY WOULDN’T ALLOW IT. THEY WOULDN’T STAND FOR IT. SO IT’S A VERY TERRIBLE THING. OUR COUNTRY IS BEING POISONED. WE ARE REALLY BEING POISONED. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE — AS A BUSINESS GUY, YOU WANT TO UNDERSTAND THE OTHER SIDE.
WHAT DOES THE OTHER SIDE THINK HE NECK EVEN IF YOU DISAGREE. I DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY’RE THINKING, BECAUSE WHO COULD WANT THIS? WHO COULD WANT MILLIONS OF PEOPLE FROM LOTS OF BAD PLACES POURING INTO OUR COUNTRY? WE HAVE NOT SEEN — THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING. WE ARE JUST STARTING TO SEE, I
CAN’T MAKE IT. I CALL IT BIDEN MIGRANT CRIME, BUT IT’S TOO LONG, AND EVERYBODY WILL KNOW IT’S BECAUSE OF BIDEN. WE’VE NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS. WE HAVEN’T AND FLOW OF PEOPLE AT NUMBERS THAT ARE UNBELIEVABLE. YOU GO BACK TO NEW YORK AND YOU SEE HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF
PEOPLE, AND YOU CAN SEE THE MAYOR IS TRYING. HE WANTS TO DO A JOB, BUT IT’S IMPOSSIBLE. >> Sean: THEY MADE NEW YORK CITY A SANCTUARY CITY. I WANT TO GO BACK TO WHAT YOU REFERRED TO, WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING. BECAUSE I POINTED OUT, WE’LL PUT
IT UP ON THE SCREEN, THE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE COMING FROM IRAN, THE NUMBER ONE STATE SPONSOR OF TERROR, THEIR SATELLITE, SYRIA. YOU HAVE THE HOME OF THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, EGYPT. THOUSANDS COMING FROM EGYPT THAT WE KNOW OF, THOUSANDS COMING FROM AFGHANISTAN. NOW AL QAEDA HAS TRAINING CAMPS UP AGAIN.
OVER TEN, 12, 14,000 FROM RUSSIA, AND I READ RECENTLY OVER 37,000 RECENTLY FROM CHINA. WHY WOULD THEY MAKE THAT LONG JOURNEY TO OUR SOUTHERN BORDER? MY FEAR IS THAT WE HAVE IN THIS COUNTRY, BECAUSE THESE ILLEGALS ARE NOT VETTED, I FEAR THAT TERROR CELLS HAVE SET UP IN THIS
COUNTRY THAT WILL PLOT, PLAN, SCHEME THE NEXT 9/11 OR WORSE. I PRAY TO GOD, AS I SAID, THAT I’M WRONG. I DON’T THINK I’M WRONG, MR. PRESIDENT. >> Sean: AS OF TODAY, 29,000 YOUNG MEN, FOR THE MOST PART, IN OUR COUNTRY FOR THE LAST 3-4 MONTHS. THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON.
THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON. HOPEFULLY WE DON’T HAVE THAT PROBLEM WITH CHINA. I ALWAYS HAD A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH CHINA UNTIL THE COVID CAME IN. THAT WAS A STEP TOO FAR. WE TOOK IN HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS FROM CHINA. NO PRESIDENT TOOK IN $0.10, NOT $0.10. AND WE STILL GOT ALONG WITH
THEM. BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS, AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT OTHER COUNTRIES, WE HAVE A LOT COMING IN FROM IRAN, A LOT COMING IN FROM PLACES THAT WE ARE FIGHTING RIGHT NOW. YOU DON’T HAVE TO HAVE BOMBS. WE HAD NO WAR, OTHER THAN I DEFEATED ISIS.
WE KNOCKED OUT ISIS, WE TOOK OUT THE LEADING TERRORISTS IN THE WORLD, BOTH OF THEM. TOOK THEM OUT, GONE. >> Sean: BAGHDADI, SOLA MONEY >> THE WORST IN THE WORLD. AND YOU LOOK AT IT AND YOU LOOK AT WHAT’S GOING ON WITH OUR COUNTRY, I’LL TELL YOU, YOU COME
TO TEXAS, THIS IS NOW A WAR ZONE. AND THEY VIEW IT AS A WAR ZONE. MEXICO IS DOING NOTHING TO HELP US. THEY ARE LETTING THE CARAVANS, UNIMPEDED. THEY COME IN BY THE THOUSANDS. YOU HAVE CARAVANS WITH 25,000 PEOPLE IN THEM JUST WALKING INTO OUR COUNTRY. SO SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE.
THE PROBLEM YOU HAVE IS ARIZONA, A VERY LIBERAL GOVERNOR THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY SHOULDN’T BE THE GOVERNOR. AND IN CALIFORNIA, NEWSON IS DOING A TERRIBLE JOB. I MEAN, OTHER THAN TALKING ABOUT HOW WONDERFUL IT IS, THAT’S ABOUT IT. YOU HAVE AN OUTFLOW OF PEOPLE, AS YOU KNOW BETTER THAN ANYBODY.
I SAW YOUR SHOW WITH HIM. I SAID, THIS GUY IS TALKING ABOUT CALIFORNIA. MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE COMING IN TO CALIFORNIA. >> Sean: FREE HEALTH CARE. >> FREE HEALTH CARE, FREE EDUCATION, FOR EVERYTHING. >> YOU GO TO JAIL, THEY LET YOU OUT, THEY DON’T TURN YOU OVER TO I.C.E.
>> BUT OUR VETERANS GET NOTHING. AND OUR PEOPLE HAVE BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME AND DESERVE SOMETHING, CITIZENS, THEY GET NOTHING. BUT THEY GET FREE HEALTH CARE. IF YOU COME ILLEGALLY INTO OUR COUNTRY, YOU GET THINGS. AND THIS IS WHY THEY ARE COMING. THE INCENTIVE IS SO GREAT.
>> Sean: ARE TOP GEOPOLITICAL FLOW, I WOULD ARGUE, IS CHINA. RUSSIA IS NOT FAR BEHIND, IRAN IS NOT FAR BEHIND. YOUR FRIEND, LITTLE ROCKET MAN, YOU GOT TO KEEP AN EYE ON HIM. BUT CHINESE NATIONALS HAVE BEEN BUYING UP THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF ACRES OF FARMLAND, RANCHLAND, AND LAND NEAR MILITARY INSTALLATIONS.
YOU KNOW PRESIDENT XI. IF YOU CALLED HIM AND SAID, “I KNOW SOMEBODY, SEAN HANNITY WOULD LIKE TO BUY FARMLAND AND RANCHLAND IN CHINA,” DO YOU THINK HE WOULD ALLOW ME? >> I DON’T THINK SO. THEY DON’T ALLOW THAT. THEY ARE VERY POSSESSIVE OF THEIR COUNTRY, VERY POSSESSIVE OF STAYING SHARP AND BRIGHT,
AND, FRANKLY, COMING TO THIS COUNTRY AND BUYING A LOT. YOU CAN TAKE IT A STEP FURTHER. THE UNITED STATES — I’M NOT TRYING TO EQUATE JAPAN WITH CHINA, BUT IT IS ALL OUTSIDE AND COMING IN. JAPAN IS BUYING U.S. STEEL. U.S. STEEL USED TO BE THE GREATEST COMPANY IN THE WORLD.
IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO. BUT I DON’T LIKE THAT. I DON’T LIKE SEEING THAT. PART OF THE REASON IS BECAUSE OTHER COUNTRIES IN PARTICULAR, CHINA, THEY DUMPED STEEL INTO THE UNITED STATES. I HAD THAT PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE I PUT TARIFFS AND SAVE THE STEEL INDUSTRY.
BUT NOW THEY LETTING IT GO. IF YOU WANT TO BUILD AN ARMY TANK AND YOU ARE FIGHTING CHINA, YOU HAVE TO GET IT FROM CHINA? I THINK IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS POSITION. I DON’T THINK OUR COUNTRY — OVERALL, I DON’T THINK OUR COUNTRY HAS EVER BEEN IN A DANGEROUS POSITION LIKE IT
IS RIGHT NOW. WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT’S HAPPENED, WITH ALL OF THE STUFF WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TONIGHT, THE TOTAL INCOMPETENCE, AND IT BEGAN TO A LARGE EXTENT WITH THE ELECTION. BUT IT BEGAN WITH AFGHANISTAN. WHEN WE SHOWED THAT WEAKNESS AND THAT STUPIDITY, TAKING THE MILITARY OUT FIRST, LEAVING
$85 BILLION WORTH OF EQUIPMENT BEHIND, 13 SOLDIERS KILLED, NOBODY EVER TALKS ABOUT THE 38 THAT WERE OBLITERATED. THEY LOT THEIR ARMS AND THEIR LEGS, JUST OBLITERATED. AND WE LEFT A LOT OF AMERICANS BEHIND. YOU USED TO COVER THAT, ACTUALLY. YOU USED TO COUNT ON HOW MANY DAYS.
I THINK HE STOPPED DOING IT, IT IS SO LONG NOW. BUT IT’S HORRIBLE. THERE’S AMERICANS OVER THERE, I GUESS YOU COULD CALL THEM HOSTAGES, IN A SENSE. >> Sean: TRAPPED BEHIND ENEMY LINES STILL. >> IT’S A HORRIBLE THING THAT HAPPEN. AND YOU HAVE IRAN GETTING CLOSE TO BUILDING OR HAVING A NUCLEAR
WEAPON, POSSIBLY 35 — >> Sean: I’M NOT A FAN OF THE U.N., BUT THEY SAID THEY THINK THEY MIGHT HAVE WEAPONS GRADE MATERIAL TO BUILD WEAPONS. >> IT WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED. IRAN WAS BROKE. I DIDN’T LET CHINA — I TOLD DINA, YOU’RE NOT GOING TO BUY OR DO BUSINESS WITH ME.
IF YOU BUY, NO BUSINESS IN THE UNITED STATES. UNTIL THAT IN MANY, MANY COUNTRIES. NOBODY BOUGHT OIL FROM IRAN. IT’S ALL ABOUT THE OIL. NOBODY BOUGHT OIL FROM IRAN. AND THEY WERE BROKE. THEY WERE ACKNOWLEDGED TO BE BROKE. THEY HAD NO MONEY FOR HAMAS, FOR HEZBOLLAH. NOW THEY HAVE $231 BILLION.
$231 BILLION THAT THEY MADE OVER THE LAST THREE YEARS. >> Sean: AND JOE IS HELPING MAKE THEM RICH AGAIN. THE $10 BILLION THAT HE ALLOWED FROM IRAQ. >> THEY LAUGH AT HIM. THEY THINK HE’S THE WORST. HE’S THE WORST PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY. JIMMY CARTER IS A VERY HAPPY MAN
NOW BECAUSE HIS PRESIDENCY IS BRILLIANT BY COMPARISON TO JOE BIDEN. BRILLIANT. >> Sean: LET ME ASK YOU THIS. SPEAKING OF YOUR FRIEND, JOE, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE IF HE CAME TO SIT WITH US. I’M NOT SURE IF HE’S CAPABLE OF HAVING A DISCUSSION LIKE THIS. I TEND TO DOUBT IT.
I COVER THAT FAIRLY EXTENSIVELY. HE SHOWS UP TODAY. HE DIDN’T REALLY SHOW UP AT ONE OF THE HOT SPOTS OF THE BORDER. I PLAYED THAT TAPE — EVERYBODY HAS CHILDREN, AND THEY’RE ALL GOING TO GET IN TROUBLE. I DON’T CARE ABOUT WHAT THEY DID SO MUCH, THAT IS A LIE TO YOU,
THEY GET IN A WHOLE LOT OF TROUBLE. AND THEY HAVE BEEN LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOR THREE YEARS. I PLAYED THAT MONTAGE. THE BOARD IS SECURE, THE BORDER IS CLOSED, THE BORDER IS SECURE, THE BORDER IS CLOSED. NO, IT WASN’T. OUR EYES ARE NOT LYING TO US.
WE HAVE BEEN SHOWING THIS VIDEO OF THESE MIGRANT CARAVANS FOR THREE YEARS, AND NOW ALL OF THE SUDDEN THEY CHANGED THE NARRATIVES. THIS IS REPUBLICANS’ FAULT? YOUR REACTION? >> IT IS ALL THIS INFORMATION. RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA. EVERYTHING THEY DO. AND I GUESS YOU HAVE TO SAY THEY ARE MASTERS AT IT.
THE BORDER IS GREAT, THE BORDER IS CLOSED, AND THEY WILL SAY IT A THOUSAND DIFFERENT TIMES, AND SOME PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BELIEVE IT. I THINK THAT IS PROBABLY THE HARDEST THING THEY’VE GOT TO DO, BECAUSE THEY HAVE DESTROYED THIS BORDER AND THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY.
WE ARE ALLOWING PEOPLE IN OUR COUNTRY THAT WE SHOULDN’T HAVE. WE ARE ALLOWING AN EXTRAORDINARY EXTRAORDINARILY TOUGH GROUP OF PEOPLE INTO OUR COUNTRY. WE HAVE PRISONS AND JAILS AND MENTAL INSTITUTIONS BEING EMPTIED OUT, NOT JUST IN SOUTH SOUTH AMERICA, THAT ALL OVER THE WORLD, YOU CAN CHECK YR PRISON POPULATION THROUGHOUT THE
WORLD, AND IT IS ALL COMING INTO OUR COUNTRY. HOW CAN THAT BE GOOD? AND HOW CAN IT BE GOOD POLITICALLY? >> Sean: JOE BIDEN IS HERE TODAY. I WANT TO GET YOUR REACTION TO THAT. WE JUST SAW THE OTHER TAPE. THE OTHER TAPE SHOWED THERE ARE SO MANY OF TRUMP POLICIES THAT
WE REVERSED. I CAN’T EVEN LIST THEM, IT IS SO LONG. I GAVE A SHORT LIST. WHAT IS YOUR REACTION? WHY DO YOU THINK HE IS HERE TODAY? I DON’T THINK IT’S AN ACCIDENT. HE HAD BRAGGED ABOUT REVERSING THE POLICIES THAT YOU PUT IN PLACE. WHAT IS YOUR REACTION?
>> WELL, I KNOW WHAT YOU SEE HER, BECAUSE HE FOUND IT WE WERE COMING. YOU AND I MADE THIS AGREEMENT TO WEEKS AGO. >> Sean: A MONTH AND A HALF AGO. >> THAT’S INTERESTING. BUT WE MADE IT A WHILE AGO, AND THE WORD GOT OUT, AND A COUPLE
OF WEEKS AGO IT STARTED GETTING OUT, AND THEY FOUND OUT FOR SURE, YOU PUT UP A NICE LITTLE PICTURE IN THE BOTTOM CORNER OF YOUR TELEVISION SET, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY ANNOUNCED THEY ARE COMING. BUT THEY WENT TO THE WRONG AREA. THEY WENT TO AN AREA WHERE THE
GOVERNOR AND MYSELF HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB ON, AND ESSENTIALLY IT’S NOBODY COMING THROUGH. SO YOU ARE NOT SEEING IT. THIS AREA IS TOUGH. >> IF YOU WOULD NOT GIVE NOVEMBER, THE ELECTION IS ON NOVEMBER 5TH, ABOUT 249 DAYS, IF I’M RIGHT, AND HOW DO YOU REVERSE THIS? NEARLY 10 MILLION UNVENTED
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. WE DON’T KNOW WHERE THEY ARE. MANY ARE GIVEN COURT DATES 7-8 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD. DAN EVER SHOWING UP FOR THOSE COURT DATES. YOU HAVE TALKED ABOUT DEPORTATION. HOW DO WE IDENTIFY THEM, IDENTIFY WHERE THEY ARE, FIND THEM AND DEPORT THEM? IS THAT YOUR PROMISE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE?
>> YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BECAUSE THIS IS NOT SUSTAINABLE. THE CITIES ARE GOING BAD. EVERY STATE IS REALLY A BORDER STATE. THE GOVERNOR HAS DONE REALLY A GREAT JOB, GOVERNOR ABBOTT. >> Sean: TED CRUZ WANTED TO BE HERE BUT CHUCK SCHUMER KEPT HIM BACK IN D.C. >> FOR A GOOD REASON, RIGHT?
WE HAVE TO DEPORT A LOT OF PEOPLE AND WE HAVE TO START MEDIALLY. PEOPLE DON’T KNOW, DWIGHT EISENHOWER, A PRETTY TOUGH PRESIDENT, I NEVER THOUGHT OF HIM AS THAT, BUT TEN YEARS AGO YOU START READING AND HE WAS A BIG DEPORTER. HE WOULD DEPORT TREMENDOUS NUMBERS OF PEOPLE, AND THEY
WOULD BRING THEM JUST TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BOARD AND THEY’D COME BACK. YOU BRING THEM AGAIN, THEY COME BACK. THEN THEY BROUGHT THEM 2,000 MILES BACK, AND THEY DIDN’T COME BACK. WE HAVE NO CHOICE. THE WAY YOU DO IT AS YOUR LOCAL POLICE. WE HAVE THE GREATEST POLICE.
THEY DON’T GET THE RESPECT THEY HAVE TO GET. THEY ARE TREATED SO BADLY, THEY DO SOMETHING IN THE END UP LOSING THEIR PENSION. EVEN IF IT’S A GOOD THING. IF THEY STOP CRIME NOWADAYS, THEY LOSE THEIR PENSION, THEIR FAMILY, THEIR HOUSE, AND WE ARE GOING TO GIVE IMMUNITY TO POLICE
AND LET THE POLICE DO THE JOB THEY HAVE TO DO. I THINK IT IS VERY IMPORTANT. THEY UNDERSTAND THESE MIGRANTS ARE. THEY KNOW THEM BY THEIR FIRST NAME AND LAST NAME. THEY KNOW WHERE THEY COME FROM. THEY KNOW EVERYTHING ABO THEM. IT’S GOING TO BE THE LOCAL POLICE THAT ARE GOING TO TURN
THEM OVER AND WE HAVE TO MOVE THEM BACK TO THE COUNTRY. >> Sean: WHEN THE FBI WAS THE WORLD’S PREMIER LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY — AND I BELIEVE WE WILL ACHIEVE THAT AGAIN, HOPEFULLY — YOU HAD SOME OF THE TOP FBI OFFICIALS. THEY HAVE SAID WHAT WE ARE WITNESSING IS AN INVASION OF
MILITARY AGE MEN. YOU ASKED THE QUESTION, TRY TO UNDERSTAND PEOPLE THAT THINK DIFFERENTLY THAN YOU. FOR THE LIFE OF ME, I CAN’T COME UP WITH ANY RATIONALE OR REASON FOR THIS. >> SO, THERE’S TWO THINGS YOU THINK OF. NUMBER ONE, THEY MAYBE WANT THE VOTES. I THINK THEY LOOK AT THESE
PEOPLE REGISTERED TO VOTE. >> Sean: I’LL GIVE YOU CITIZENSHIP, REMEMBER ME AT THE POLLS. >> I’M DOING VERY WELL WITH HISPANIC. BUT THE FACT IS YOU HAVE TWO THINGS. EITHER THEY ARE STUPID, OR THEY HATE OUR COUNTRY. BECAUSE IT CAN ONLY BASICALLY BE ONE OF THOSE TWO THINGS. OTHER THAN THE VOTING ELEMENT,
WHICH, I DON’T KNOW. I’M NOT SO SURE THEY BELIEVE THAT SO MUCH. I THINK IT IS DOWN THE ROAD, AND ALTHOUGH THEY ARE TRYING TO REGISTER PEOPLE RIGHT NOW AS WE SPEAK, WE — >> Sean: IN NEW YORK CITY, FOR EXAMPL
