george washington, thomas jefferson, ben franklin are rolling in their graves. if they knew they would have had the audacity as a felon, which donald trump will be come this spring, to run for president and other people running for the office would be willing to support someone like that, they would have acted being a convicted felon as a requirement for the presidency. to say you can be the rightful heir of washington with washington, lincoln, fdr, to say i will support a convicted felon gives me great concern about their judgment. one last thing, you can't beat him unless you try to beat him. they're continuing to cuddle up to the guy. he's up by 30 points. and so i'm trying to beat him. they're trying to come in, a very respectable second. i don't think that's the way to run any race and i'm not going to run this one that way. >> chris christie, welcome back from israel. >> thanks for having me today, jake. >>> we are just getting word that the meeting between joe biden and xi jinping just wrapped up in california after nearly three hours. meanwhile, the hous

election that i realized that we were heading for a cliff, that we were heading for that pla, that ben franklin was talking about when he said if you can keep it. and so some very talented people from hud joined me informing american cornerstone institute, which is a think tank, slash, do tank, because don't just think we do stuff and cancel trade on the cornerstone pillars that were fundament to the rapid rise of this country. our faith. our faith which taught us how to relate to each other, our judeo-christian values say, love your neighbor, not cancel your neighbor, not hate the person next door. ifhey'd have a different yard sign than you do. d then the concept of liberty or freedom of beg able to live the life that you want to live wiout a bunch of mandates, without a bunchf bureaucrats telling you what u have to do. and when you have to do it. community. that was such an important part of what made us into iraq with a gring anstrong nation. there were communities all over thcountry, people from dierent couries who could barely communicate with each other because they spoke different lanag

when i saw ben franklin with that -- on, he looked a lot like -- >> fidel cal. >> greg: fidel castro. going to read you a question written by one of my writers, what do you think was a worst event, january 6 or one of your stand up shows? >> are you sure it wasn't my agent who wrote that?

but, you know, if you recall, arthur, you were there as my assistant, tom jefferson and ben franklin and i were talking about their hero and mine, adam smith, who wrote "the wealth of nations" in 17 is 76, and they communicated back and forth with smith if before he published that book. that's one of the reasons they believed in economic freedom, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. my point is this -- >> that is true, by the way. that is true. larry: i know. this crowd just has, this is all central planning. if you want to call it socialism or whatever, a bunch of central planners, a bunch of regulators. they're waging war against businesses. it's not just fossil fuels, it's all business. they don't believe in business. >> yeah, it's everything. larry: and the results show. >> it's a mental state, larry. these people are pessimists, they believe everything is fixed in stone and that clouds are there, the global warming, we don't have any ability to do anything about it and woe is me. easter island, america, we're going to all kill each oh and build statues, and the everett is
