On a bellwether issue in a short amount of time. Part of the story the book is telling us about unpacking the reaction and the grief and anxiety to the cultural change weve seen in the last decade of our nation . Annbeatnik ann coulter come youre an author, columnist and also to the person. I think the assumption is tv people dont write their own books. Youre offended by this idea. I think its an excellent assumption in pretty much every case but im. By the way, if you turn on the tv in the last year, you havent seen me. Trump supporters who dont be too much of. But first, they are usually bad and i wish that were better understood. I have told me at times reporters who mostly hate me, but ive always said to them the bestsellers fiction, nonfiction, paperback, hardcover. I want separate for authors who written around both a nice one thing every knew your times reporter agrees with me on because they are writers. My second book, my editor called me and said congratulations. You are in the bestseller list. Finally come youre the only nonthe less he wrote own book. Host how do you write your own book . What process . Guest usually i take a year off. This is unusual. I think i may have done backtoback years, but that was an emergency and this is an emergency. Usually i take a year off. After i finished the book, im moving on. For one thing im never going to write a book. Host why do you say that . Guest i thought i was done. Thats everything i have to say. I wanted to rights in some time about a year into reading the new york times, probably when i was 11. And then i thought thats everything i wanted to say. But then something comes along and i think i have to work this out. From darwinism, mccarthyism, french revolution. And then i have reading, reading, to see if there is a point to get these days. I drop some ideas for books. In fact, thats not originally what it was going to be about. I was going to be one chapter. It wasnt that it wasnt a good idea. I just sounds so much more that these are books have been with from the American People. For a while i take some time off and i read and formulate and then i start writing and im completely cut off from the world. People who know me every time im writing the book and this is number 12, i get an email from someone ive become friendly with recently. Like a month and im sorry, have i been obtained to offend you . Are you mad at me . My friends are gnomish is writing a book, do not expect her to email back. I have a couple of talking partners. One of whom you but no. I cannot tell. Host what does that consist of . Do you read chapters to nine, seven step youre working on . Guest just chitchat. I guess there are about three. Host what makes a good chit chat partner when you read a book . Guest if i can maneuver the conversation is something im writing about, unfortunately with actually arnold then thats very difficult to do. I have to listen to 20 minutes of him calling the Appliance Repair man before i can work the conversation into whatever trump says that day or whatever i want to talk about. A lot of it is talking ideas that when i can get to that part of the conversation. And that is fine and back it may go in. Do i ever get them to listen to me read portions of it . That is way harder. Kicking and screaming really annoys me. Host jack the process of writing the book . Guest i thought the head i like giving speeches. I used to never be able to remember, which do i like more . Tv, writing, which of these . When i was writing, it is either demonic i think it was demonic. I was so happy every single day. I let the research. Also i dont have to wake up to an alarm clock. I do whatever i want all day and luckily this is why i think my books are fun because i get bored easily. I only read about stuff and read about a fifth interesting. The french revolution has been hidden from us their entire life. So it was totally fun. It is not an assignment. Nobody is telling me you must read about the french revolution. I just find more fun stuff and i love the Research Part of it. I love tracking down how the media is hiding status. Not only to media, but the government hiding true and Important Information about immigration and obviously the trump book which was unusual in a few ways. Most of that was watching trump. Host you said you bang this out quickly. How long does this take . Guest i had the idea in january. I started talking about it. The january before i thought what never trumpeters think of him now. And then he won my heart forever. The primaries were going on. So i was talking to my agent, but i had the idea in various people seem to like the idea. I couldnt seriously force myself to writing it until crews conceded. Whenever that was. There are some errors in it. Host how long did it take . Guest so then i turned it in a month ago. So april, whatever it was. May, june, july. That actually seems like a long time. I can do that on one hand. Host what is that book about . Guest im always the worst at describing what a book is about. Host it is for him we trust. Guest no, i trust no one. But i do think the things i trust him on are his basic philosophy of putting America First on trade, immigration, wars. He has made so many missed eggs. He backed tracks then he gets back on. But when the entire media and i mean the entire media moves up to crash him after the mexican trim 11 speech. In fact, i started emailing with Cory Lewandowski and every once in a while ive been a point come you might want to mention x, y, z. It was six months, however many points i had, one of them would always be dont let him back down on immigration. I think it was after the muslim then i finally said okay i think hes not backing down. Host now he appears to be a little bit. Guest not really. Im annoyed, but its a rhetorical thing. I never thought deportation was going to be inhumane. Hes almost responding to immediate caricature. I wish he had phrased it differently, not used or is softening, not have this drip, drip, drip and driving supporters crazy and allowing media to go crazy. Ice is going to be able to do its job. We are going to have a major cutback and ask her what is going to happen to law abiding with children immigrants, why doesnt he just say by the way, everything i said is something we would not get under any other president. Not jeb, not rubio, not walker. And probably not romney. We are 8 million aisles ahead of anything i ever imagined would happen in my lifetime. But why this may just say what is going to happen with the illegals . No one has a right to be in this country illegally and we as america will decide whether its good for america whether you stay or go. Maybe well want to keep you. But it will be determined on the basis of what is in this countrys best interest. Not what is in the best interest of someone whos not an american. Host how do you think a Statement Like that would be received . Guest fine. Host how would the price received that . Guest is softening. Host so you live in an affluent zip code. Presumably most of your neighbors are antitrump. A lot of people youve known most of your life. What is it about trump is that certain people i mention the way he does question or guest well, washington is much worse than any other place. It is existential. Its like theres something in the water. I know two people who are not antitrump in washington and i suspect like dr. Strangelove they are drinking rainwater and grain alcohol. Theres something going on in that town. First of all, in two of the main cities, new york city and l. A. , and i have approximately 30 of my toptier and secondtier friends immediately all but one were 100 protrump and thats both new york and l. A. To paraphrase donald trump, im not talking about uneducated people. Im talking about lawyers, doctors, comedy writers, producers, and highly freakishly highly uneducated people in to my protrump. Only one in each city was antitrump in washington it was exactly the worst. Another fancy love how, ill tell you i spent christmas in palm beach Walking Around at christmas time. I know some of the protrump or is, but that time was 100 more jeb than rubio. They were wandering around shellshocked, saying i dont understand it. We were offered jab. The hispanic help is all for trump. Host here you have the richest guy to ever run for president and rich people dont like him. Guest i think it is less the rich. My experience does happen to be true, but i think palm beach, beverly hills, manhattan tells us a lot. A lot of the rich people, theres two categories. Ill find which are patriots and which ones just want the cheap labor, ebay try and then move onto the next country. We are finding out right now. Some of them are patriotic, lovely people. They think thats better to the company and theyve just been snowed by Campaign Consultants who say jeb is their only shot. Youve got to give me a million dollars. They are busy making millions of dollars. Trump has shown the wizard of oz to throw back the curtain. Now they know, what am i wasting my money on . They dont know their dont know there has her metal on the ground. Host why. Host why does the press hate them so much question mark here you have a candidate who says they think theres a lot of reasons to be concerned about trump. Here you have a candidate who says i represent the people without a voice. Traditionally you think of the process be a populous petition. Thats what they tell themselves and the rest of us and almost to a person theyve come out against trump in a very sort of way. What is that about . Guest part of it is what we were just describing. Who benefits from not only illegal immigration, but a lot of lowwage illegal immigration. But theyve cheap gardeners, cheap made in the gardeners and maids dont live in their neighborhood. They live out in the suburbs. So its other peoples Emergency Rooms that are being bankrupted. They cant have pageants anymore because theres than in all their money as english as a second language. The media is part of that elite, which is just utterly selfcentered as Love Interest in forcing the middle class to subsidize cheap labor. The other part of it and that is the Political Part which drives them the most crazy. The left was just on the verge of total hegemony. It started with Teddy Kennedys 1965 immigration act. Obama put it into overdrive. But while, obama left clinton in the gas. Bush didnt slow it down. But hes fine and then from central america. I have read various articles about putting all of these third world immigrants to flip live. The longterm plan of a kennedy democrat with 90 from the third world. 80 vote for the democrat. 50 years will have an unbeatable majority. Suddenly they look at it next year. Along comes trump and says hes going to shut it down. Host sounds like youre making the narrative if the narrative if you were to narrow down what makes trump solo some to the people in power if his opposition to immigration. If his opposition to immigration. So this is about immigration. Guest i think so. Immigration is the great unifier. Host even factoring the fact you just wrote a book for immigration, have been undermined. A lot of people say the exit polls dont tell us that. Guest whenever they say that, i look at what people do say is their number one issue and it is always things like jobs, terrorism, cultural change. They are all synonyms for a immigration. Americans are nice people. I think they have the sense especially with the media telling them is that of its integration they Say Something mean about immigrants. They are nice people. We like immigrants. As trump always says, he loves to stand there. A lot of things hes done other that mexican rapist speech. That was so making fun of multiculturalism. It was hilarious. I screamed when i first read it. I love hispanics. Last night and found like you appreciate the Performance Art element to this game. Guest idea. He is very funny. He is very politically incorrect. There is a big appeal. Host does you no trump and you have been following this closely. What percentage would you say of his statements are ironic, sarcastic, designed for shock value, to amuse him . Like when he says mccain got captured in a metal, they wear their medals. Was that serious . Guest in fact, i write about it in the book at one point. I think that was lied about. He was angry and he was lashing out and he deserved to be angry and lashing out. I read about that as well as the attack on the disabled reporter. I wouldnt say either of them or ironic or sarcastic, but i think they were both lied about and he was justified in those cases you to take the mccain case, i mean, these poor arizonans have been so overwhelmed with illegal immigration. Cattle being slaughtered, theres just an overwhelmed with illegal immigration bake in the federal government to do something. They have that famous, as the media calls it a required what has been required of immigrant and 1840s. Immigrants are required to carry papers on them. It was attacked by all the bush people as unconstitutional and so outrageous that if the wall was an Arizona State trooper, if they are in the process of arresting someone, they suspect him to be an illegal alien may ask for is immigration. And you remember how that remember how that was announced high amount . It was upheld by the supreme court. You get the foot out on what happened with that . The big constitutional scholar . No, of course it is constitutional. After all of that, all the sneering, trump goes to do his first event after the mexican rapist speech. Hes going to be at the hotel. Too many people were coming. They have to rent the stadium and the day after it happened, trump goes to the new yorker said he can call them crazy. The American People who show up. Mccain went to the new yorker to call these lovely americans concerned about illegal immigration, to call them crazy and that is the trump was angry about. He calls mccain a dummy and says he graduated second from this class and when he was being interviewed by frank luntz, franklins coming in now, its not president ial to call senator john mccain a dummy. He is a war hero. So trump starts to explain that i was just explaining. Im having this event and he calls these people crazy. He said im not crazy. These people were not crazy. In the middle of trump explaining this, he interrupts him to say he is a war hero. And thats when he said he is not a war hero. He got captured or perhaps he was a war hero and then goes on. Just a flash of anger. I havent told you yet, but its in the book, when trump attacks, he attacks the powerful on behalf of a decent, longsuffering americans who are ridiculed near died in the media all the time. He was attacking of the americans called crazy by john mccain. Host mccain is the senior senator power full. Guest fairpoint. I think its about time democrats put an end to this human shield pack is demanding out said that dems to prevent their issues. They were standing out there who say they were a muslim family. He was being sent out to claim to the American People that our constitution requires us to keep something or been more muslim immigrants in the country. I think americans have a right to dispute that. If you send out someone were not allowed to respond to come in the kind that shows the debate down. With the jersey girls, they have all these policy proposals and you attack them. But there has been died. I have an idea. But i do have someone else make the argument . Said that Hillary Clinton. Senator mccain to make the argument. Dont send out an angry muslim we are not allowed to respond to waving our constitution not us and claiming absurdly it requires us to keep that many muslim immigrants. Most americans do not know this. Weve admitted were muslim immigrants after 9 11 and before 9 11. Would admit more muslim immigrants didnt immigrants from the entire british isles. After san bernardino, boston marathon, orlando, this is an important Public Policy that americans have a right to discuss. Democrats will find some orphanages and that their argument because you cant respond. Host to what extent does the average american have any influence . Guest a lot this november. Is there polling on this, on the level of knowledge about who is coming in and in what numbers before this election . Guest is a lot for a promenade, thank you donald trump. Host i dont remember this being a public debate. Guest no. In fact in my book i cite trumps very first interview after the mexican rapist speech with bill oreilly. First question. What are you going to do about isis . He went through syria, iran, Muslim Brotherhood and the russia and you can not one question one month later from oreilly introducing trump say illegal immigration is not being dealt with in this country and not impart his lead shoes. Much onto the top of the polls. Here he is coming to the top of his rally. Host you obviously know a lot about it. Arent you concerned that trump whose instincts and impulses you agree with have got to be on the low end of the articulate scale of this question, who might wind up discrediting the ideas you care so much about. Guest i was worried about that at first. But now, you take the rough with this news. He has this boisterous bragging personality that attracts a lot of people did people start listening because they want to be entertained. You are listening to him people are driving five and six hours to hear him. Probably a lot of them were calling because they thought he believes everything. Some of them at least in part, probably a lot of them like the speech as much as i did, but some of them knew he was entertaining. You hear them and you are laughing. You have a good time and its funnier than listening to stand up comedian a lot of the times. And then it hits you. I agree with this guy. Hes making some good points. Guest thats clearly have been on a good scale. If he loses what happens. And so, in california, you know, 20 years later people of a completely distorted view of what happened. If trump loses, what the message say this is what happens when you run immigration. Its a hateful subject inherently. Never do that again. Guest i dont think so and i dont think it will not or cannot get to the i dont think so point for 42nd. If trump loses, the country is finished. You do what i do. I guess you can hillary says shes granting amnesty. Its not 11 million. Phillies 30, maybe 4 million. Host were to get the number . Guest is in my last book, audio samaritan. You should be suspicious. We been here in 11 million from within a decade now. 11 million are based on the fence is, which asks people, are you here illegall
