RUDY GIULIANI (HOST): I hope intellect returns someday to America. Do you realize the difference between two words he did interchangeably? Which he [Gustavo Gordillo] is too stupid and privileged to realize. And so is Miss America [Martha MacCallum] there. “Should” or “has.” “No one should have a double-digit return on their investment,” he said that the first time. You know what he said the second time? “No one has a double-digit return on their investment.” So, “should” means that he wants to make an America in which we put limits on the amount of money you can make with the investment of your money. And if you make more than the Gorilla there – Gorilla, Gorilla, what the hell’s his last name? Mr. Mole Face. What? Gordilla? Pordilla? Whatever the hell his name is. If you make more than he says, you can’t make it. OK, that’s “should.” But that doesn’t mean we have it right now.
He did, however, slip into, without Miss America realizing it, that – I’m not sure she was Miss America, I think so. He said “no one has the right to a double-digit inflation.” He just merged from advocating for the right to limit the profits you can make on an investment to asserting that there is already a constitutional limitation on the rights as to what you make on the return of an investment. Do you realize how massively ignorant that is in terms of the United States Constitution? To history of economics? [unintelligible] Even as compared to other economics.
Do you realize that this is a stupid child with a child's brain being put on national television and treated as if he should be dealt with seriously? I know her. She’s a nice woman. She’s a good woman. But Fox is a bad station. You got to give up a lot on what you believe in to work for Fox.
