>> how do you fight that? don't forget, when i was running the last time against crooked hillary, what happened? what happened? i had nothing like that. i said i was going to do that, but had you to take my word for it. one of these guys said -- >> welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." the president is speaking at a rally in pennsylvania live. we will listen in and come back when he is done. >> [cheers and applause]. >> i had obamacare done except one guy at 2 o'clock in the morning went in and went thumbs down, even though he campaigned for years repeal and replace. but we have done a number on obamacare. we are coming out with tremendous health care plans. we got rid of the individual mandate, the most unpopular thing probably in our country. gone. no individual mandate. you have the privilege to pay
5:01 pm
a fortune as a penalty in order not to pay a fortune for bad health care. is that a good thing? i don't think so. we got rid of it. it's gone. you know how many people came up to me and said thank you very much for getting rid of the individual mandate. it sounds so nice. isn't it a beautiful term? the individual mandate is wonderful. i am being presidential now. the individual mandate is a disaster. it sounds good. like the affordable care act was not affordable. remember when bill clinton got up and said the problem with the affordable care act is that it's not affordable! then you didn't hear from him for 2 weeks because he got the hell knocked out of him by crooked hillary. >> [cheers and applause]. >> for 2 weeks he went dead silent. they would not let him out of the house.
5:02 pm
>> [cheers and applause]. >> the women's unemployment rate, i am sorry, women, is the lowest in only 65 years. not history. sorry! but it will be low soon. so it's 65 years. i would bet within 2 weeks or the next time this incredible statistical group is released, i would say probably the women will be historical, right? i think so. but 65 years. i am doing my best! >> [cheers and applause]. >> 52% -- oh, the women liked me, you know. >> [cheers and applause]. >> they like me. >> [cheers and applause]. >> they like me. look at all of those pink signs from the women. look at that. >> [cheers and applause].

5:04 pm
i would say that's pretty good. >> [cheers and applause]. >> confidence is a good thing. having confidence, what do you think? having confidence is good, right? if you have confidence and you know what you are doing, you can't lose. that's a great stat. think of it. the most confident in our country. it's great. the united states is now a net natural gas exporter for the first time in 60 years anded pennsylvania workers are leading the way. i don't know if you even know that. >> [cheers and applause]. >> right? >> [cheers and applause]. >> now that we have the best economy in the history of our country, this is the time to straighten out the worst trade deals ever made by any country
5:05 pm
on any time. pennsylvania steel and coal made this state the center of the industrial world. the workers of scranton and bethlehem and allentown were the backbone of american might. they were. the backbone of our country and the back bone of america's strength and might. the loyalty of our workers was repaid with betrayal. you were betrayed by our politicians and the people that ran our country. but you are not betrayed anymore. pennsylvania lost 300,000
5:06 pm
manufacturing jobs and china joined the wgo. right now china is not happy with me. but i have great respect for president xi and for china. it's not their fault that our leaders were stupid. for decades, our politicians ran for office pledgeing to crackdown on unfair trade. but they never did anything. but once celebrielected they di absolutely nothing and our workers and our country got ripped off like no country ever before in the history of the world. we got ripped off. it was a massive transfer of wealth to other countries. the politicians just watched as other countries stole our jobs, plundered our wealth and got the
5:07 pm
crown jewels of the american economy. i am not another pollitition. i keep my promises. >> [cheers and applause]. >> i didn't need that. i had a very nice life. i used to get good press. i didn't need this. but i love it. i love it because we are doing things that are historic. there has never been -- and even these people back here -- these horrible, horrendous people -- even these people -- look at this. it looks like the academy awards. even these people they say probably in the history of this country, maybe in the history of the world, there has never been anything like what happened in november of '16.
5:08 pm
>> [cheers and applause]. >> probably will never happen. i really believe there has never been. >> [cheers and applause]. >> i remember when we were starting to do really well. the last 2 weeks i had crowds like this everywhere. thousands of people outside could not get in. so why are we going to lose? hillary would have 350 people. >> [laughing]. >> she would bring in beyonce and jjay-z would get up and use language that is so bad. they would say trump's language is tough. you have heard jay-z. she would bring in bruce springsteen does they were drawing crowds smaller than my crowds. i said why are we going to lose? you know what? we didn't. what happened was interesting. they started off by saying, we have not seen anything like this
5:09 pm
since ronald reagan. i like ronald reagan. >> [cheers and applause]. >> and then it got bigger and bigger and wilder and wilder. it was 306 to 223. that's a lot. remember, there is no way according to fake news cnn, from is no way for trump to get to 270. there is no path. remember the expression? ladies and gentlemen there is no path for donald trump to get to 270. no there wasn't, but 306 was no problem >> [cheers and applause]. >> after years of rebuilding other countries, we are finally
5:10 pm
rebuilding our country. >> [cheers and applause]. >> in the numbers that were just released, the reporters did not cover this one want to me it was maybe more important than the 4.1 because we will do better than 4.1 as things go. for the first time maybe ever, the trade deficit just fell -- think of that -- for the quarter 52-billion dollars. nobody reports it. why don't you report that. >> [cheers and applause]. >> just fell by 52-billion dollars. >> [cheers and applause]. >> and because of our economic planning and our charging taxes or tariffs to all of the a dumpers of steel all over our country, america steel mills are roaring again. >> [cheers and applause].
5:11 pm
>> our country is being respected again because we are finally putting america first. >> [cheers and applause]. >> we eliminated a record number of job crushing regulations. i withdrew the united states from the unfair and very, very expensive for our country paris climate accord. so unfair. that was another great rip off. republicans just passed the biggest tax cuts in the history of our country. >> [cheers and applause]. >> the democrats want to lift them way up. remember that. when you go to vote, they want to end your tax cuts and lift it up so they can waste your money
5:12 pm
on a lot of nonsense. very importantly, we saved our family farms and our small businesses from the estate tax also known as the death tax. no longer is that tax. >> [cheers and applause]. >> no longer will they pay the estate tax. our family farmers. the individual mandate is gone. the penalty is gone. through the association health plans. they are giving us and allowing americans to join forces to buy much better health care for a fractions of the cost. you can go across the state lines and negotiate with everybody you want to negotiate with. >> [cheers and applause]. >> we have invested a record 700-billion dollars in our
5:13 pm
miltary and 716-billion dollars next year. we are rebuilding our miltary with the finest planes, the finest missiles, the finest ships, anywhere in the world. we had to do it. we have to do it. >> [cheers and applause]. >> and they are all made in the usa, folks. in that case, much less important, there is nothing so important as protection of our miltary, but in this case, it's called jobs because all of this equipment and all of these brilliant laplanes that everybo wants to buy. we have a backlog. we make the greatest planes, ships, jets and missiles. we have anti-missiles that shoot down missiles many miles away in the sky like a needle in a haystack.
5:14 pm
they shoot them down. hard to believe. >> [cheers and applause]. >> we are surrounding our country with them if you don't mind. >> [cheers and applause]. >> other countries said we don't want you to put defensive missiles in your country. explain that to me, please. remember? they used to get angry when we would put defensive missiles, anti-missiles missiles in our country. we would not do it. no thanks. we will put them in if you don't mind. >> [cheers and applause]. >> i directed the pentagon to begin the process of creating a 6th branch of the u.s. armed forces called the space force. very important. >> [cheers and applause]. >> we just passed the landmark
5:15 pm
va accountability law. if a bad government work mistreats, neglects or steals or does anything bad to our great veterans, we turn to them and say: you are fired. get the hell out of here! >> [cheers and applause]. >> got to do it. got to do it. maybe most importantly, 40 years they tried to get accountability. but even more, i wanted veterans choice where if a veteran is not properly served, if they have to wait 3 to 5 weeks -- you can imagine? the doctor says come back in 22 days. people that were not ill ended up being terminally ill because they could not see a doctor. they tried to pass this for 40
5:16 pm
years. we just passed -- i signed it a month ago -- veteran's choice where our great veterans, if they have to wait for a long period, they go outside to a private doctor and we pay the bill. >> [cheers and applause]. >> right? i withdrew the united states from the horrible and very expensive and a deal that didn't work, the iran nuclear deal. >> [cheers and applause]. >> i hope everything will be fine with us and iran. but they are a much different country than they were 4 months ago. i also recognize the capital of israel and 5 months later we opened the american embassy in jerusalem. >> [cheers and applause].
5:17 pm

5:19 pm
founding fathers declared our independence. signed our constitution, and defended our god-given rights. >> [cheers and applause]. >> proud pennsylvania workers mine the coal, work the railroads and forged the steel that made america into the greatest and most powerful nation in the history of our world. now it's more powerful and richer than ever before. it's only to get better! >> [cheers and applause]. >> from valley forge to getsburg to normandy, they sweated their blood and their very lives to protect our families, our freedom and our great american flag. >> [cheers and applause]. >> we stand on the shoulders of
5:20 pm

5:22 pm
pennsylvania to his closing song you can't always get what you want from the rolling stones. the president spoke about immigration and the wall. a hot topic in washington. republicans are saying they are refusing to fund the wall. let's take a listen on one side of the screen. here's what he said 40 minutes ago or so. >> the democrats, anything i want -- it's not even the republicans -- i don't know if they care about the republicans. they care about me. they are very concerned. anything i want, they want to oppose. i just figured out how to do the wall. i will say i don't want to build the wall and they will insist on building it. >> [cheers and applause]. >> tucker: jeanine pirro was watching the rally. she is the author of a new book. we are happy to have her on the show. judge, what did you think of it? >> i thought it was
5:23 pm
vintage-style trump. he gets energy from the audience and they get energy from him. he was everything: entertaining, positive and funny. he had a message of success that energized pennsylvania. i love the way he talked about american history and pennsylvania and the role they played. the steel mills and the railroads. my own dad was from scranton, pennsylvania. and veterans. it was all good stuff. that audience loved. it he will do this until the 2018 elections. >> tucker: you talked to the president. we have a lot of his rallies during our show. i listen to all of them. toward the end he mentions space force. i never heard it discussed anywhere but at his rallies. when you talk to him, do you sense this is something close to his heart? >> yes! i want to talk to him more about space force. maybe we will get more information.
5:24 pm
clearly, this is a man who is not seafood with just getting better unemployment, although he will work for lower women's unemployment which is interesting, and all of the positive things. he is thinking about the future. not just now. that's classic donald trump. he is a success in everything that he does. he is a positive guy. after one ever these rallies, you say to yourself: what does he do? the people in the audience don't go home and go to sleep. they are fired up. they love america and love the success story and love hearing about people who lost everything and are able to go to a president who will make things happen. whether it's the veteran who needs medical help or the steel worker sore someone who is fearful of the problems with immigration and nato. he is right. 200-billion dollars nobody talks about it. 50-billion dollars tariffs benefit right now and no one talks about it. the american people want to hear it.
5:25 pm
he is his best messanger. >> tucker: judge jeanine pirro, thank you very much. something else that happened today. it tells you about where this country is moving. when you were growing up you probably learned one of the most basic moral principles: treat other people as individuals for who they are and not on the basis of who they are or what their parents did. judge people for the choices they make. that was a good principle. we haven't always followed it but we ought to try to follow it. bigotry hurts people. the left decided to reject that idea and embase a standard that is new and time warn.
5:26 pm
you may have assumed that moral purity based on blood lines are relics from an old time. the "new york times" embraces that is so did the left. yesterday the "new york times" hired sarah yong. judging by what we wrote on twitter she is an angry bigot. here are examples. it's sick how much joy i get out of being mean to dumb old white men. and another one: later she said that white people
5:27 pm
smell like dogs. here's another one: and on does on. people are getting fired for far less than this across corporate america right now. the "new york times" decided to double down on her behalf. here's part of the statement the paper sent out about her: . in other words, it's not her fault. white racism caused her racism against white people. she is the victim here. harvard graduate and oppressed person she is. some of her many defenders accused critics of taking her tweets out of context. we checked. there is no context. she was furious at a race of people and said so on twitter. you think on the left someone
5:28 pm
would be cringe at all of this. it's ugly and awful. modern progressives are happy not simply to defend it but question the joy sarah derives from being cruel to white men. one lady criticism of her is the product of far right agitators. we are not calling on her to be fired. we are not liberals. we do not believe every person we disagree should be crushed. we believe in free speech even when it's reprehensible. what we will like to see is honesty. let's stop lying for a minute. what sarah said was wrong but only shocking because she expressed it so clearly. her views are commonplace in the american establishment.
5:29 pm
try to find a single governor bureaucrat or college administrator who disagrees with the idea that people should be judged by the color of their skin and some races are more deserving than other races. they all think that. every one of them. yet remarkably, these very same people are the quickest to cry racism for no reason at all. they think of themselves as enemies of racism and get tattoos telling you that. a deep irony. how do they do that? simple, they redefine the term. vice.com said it's impossible to be racist to a white person. the entire left takes that as a matter of faith. they believe that. what does that mean? is there really an expire race of people so repulsive that it's
5:30 pm
literally impossible to wrong them? you could do anything to people like that and not feel bad about it. they deserve it. they are not really human. that's the attitude. it's not hard to guess where ideas like that wind up. all of us should be afraid of that regardless of color. it's awful. this is the mind set the left imposed on our country. an attitude designed to dehumanize the individual and erase what makes us distinct and reduce to faceless members of a group. kenny bruce is a radio show host on new york. >> bravo, opening segment. >> tucker: it seems obvious. anybody over 35 grew up learning
5:31 pm
you should judge people by the choices they make and not by their race because they can't control their race. but the left turned that on its head. it's unacceptable to say that. what happened? >> this is what the left has done wherever it has gained some sort of power around the world. it survives by dividing and conquering. the names has an editorial position that explains, like a cottage industry creating a racist guide for division and resentment. you see it in the columns. i think young woman will fit right in. at the same time, you should notice, we are not looking for someone to get pyred. -- fired. but there is a harps. hypocrisy. the rules are different for
5:32 pm
people of color. that's what they want you to think want the real difference is progressives. and they are using issues of race, of sexuality and gender in order to create divisions. in this case, another woman was hired by the "new york times" last february, a tech writer. she was exposed as having tweets, a slur used for african-americans and guys. she was immediately fired. the reason was this is because her crime was against progressives. the difference here is that the presumption and the message to liberals is: if you are going to belong and be correct and you are going to be saved, you can't be with conservatives or people who are just simply not paying allegiance to the processive end. the danger of what this young woman will be doing -- and i think bad ideas should be out in
5:33 pm
the open so we can confront them. >> tucker: i agree completely. >> in this instance she will be part of the editorial board that issues editorials that are not signed. they set the tone for the paper itself. it's a harder dynamic to argue directly to someone when it's an organizational position. >> tucker: the fact they are teaching our children that some groups can be discriminated against is wrong and we should call them. great to see you. >> thanks very figure me. >> tucker: tommy robinson spent 2 months in jail for attempting to cover a sexual abuse trial. journalist in great britain and the united states applauded his sentence. now he was released from jail and will join us exclusively next. ♪

5:43 pm
was an email that said i would be released. they took me through the back door and put me up before a judge. the media said i pled guilty. at no point was i even asked if i was guilty or not guilty. i still have not been told and don't know what i am deemed to have done wrong. in a british courtroom, they have to understand what they are being accused of. contempt of court is what i was told. what contempt of court? i pointed out these men are innocent until proven guilty. i was non-confrontational. the judges have no power to issue restrictions on any information that is already in the public domain. i was whisked away. what we have seen this week the highest judge in our country condemned this as fraud and

5:51 pm
paul manafort who i thought was on the sleazy side. but it's worth defending the principle of fairly applied justice. it's not a crime to buy expensive suits and you should not get 300 years in prison for tax evasion. >> you're absolutley right. what you are watching is what is called in the justice department the use of teriter legal tactics to destroy a human being to force him to cooperate with he has nothing to cooperate with. what the special counsel has done, mr. mueller, he has chosen his jack the ripper like leader. weissman to use the tactics that are reserved for mafia gangs, terrorists, and they converted paul manafort into this ugly creature. this is one of the most unfortunate moments in the history of the fbi and the
5:52 pm
department of justice. this case is the rosemary's baby of rod rosenstein who forced this prosecution and permitted the abuse during the investigation and which are occurring in this trial. agreed by the fbi director christopher wray and the attorney general is asleep as this horrific embarrassment to the department continues in the east district of virginia. this is a disgusting display of prosecution abuse for when the attorney general and his deputy should be ashamed. >> tucker: is there anybody you know personally who could say 305 years in prison seems like an appropriate punishment for tax evasion? no is the answer. how can they charge him with that sentence? >> because the deputy attorney general mr. rosenstein has given
5:53 pm
mr. mueller full authority it to do what whatever he wants. the goal is to get something on president trump. they decided to ruin paul manafort who has no criminal record. whatever you may think of his tactics over the years, or who his overseas clients were. he doesn't deserve this. the attorney general knows that. the deputy attorney general knows that. they don't care. they know mueller wants to get trump. that's what this is about. there is nothing for manafort to flip on. what you are watching is a bizarre mistreatment of a human being. this is a case that should get 1 to 3 years at most. but mueller and weissman and all of the people in the department just can't give it up. >> tucker: 1.3 years. a year does 3 months is the average sentence for tax fraud.
