ANDREW KLAVAN (HOST): It's really the big story, the real story is that Donald Trump has broken the stranglehold of a delusional social imaginary created by a gang of failed incompetent, arrogant, credentialed elites over decades. People in the academies, people in the media, people in the deep state for years have wrapped us with this kind of boa constrictor of lies that has been choking our freedom of speech and our freedom of action and our freedom to defy the government and live as we choose.

Just consider this for a minute — just so you get — just step back for a minute so you get a picture of what we've been going through, not just last year and not just for the last since Obama, but for a long time.

You know, the Supreme Court invented a constitutional right to gay marriage. Suddenly, we're all required to spend an entire month celebrating our wonderful pride at people being homosexual. And listen, I don't bother anybody about his private sex life. Sex life is truly none of my business, but I don't think it's worth 10 seconds of being proud of a homosexuality. I don't think that's a a cause for pride or celebration. It's something that happens in life. I think it's part of, you know, the way of things.

But still, why are we doing that? Why was the White House lit up with rainbow colors after Obama himself said marriage is between a man and a woman and God is in the mix, all those lies that he told? Suddenly, this steel trap of opinion closes down where if you come out and say what has been Christian wisdom for 2,000 years, maybe this is not God's will that people do this stuff, suddenly you're a hateful, horrible person. And that's can, you know, cost you your job. It can cost you your social media. It can cost you your friends. All of that stuff just closes down like that, and it's over. That's what the machine that was built to stop us. 

An angry lesbian academic comes out and says, oh, you know, gender norms are just a a social construct. This is thousands of years in of human history, human civilization where no one has ever thought, ever, that a man could turn into a woman. No one has ever had that thought. Hominids have been around for hundreds of thousands of years, not one of them has ever tried to change sex. All of a sudden, you know, if you say that this is wrong or mental illness or just crazy or something — not realistic, you are a phobic guy and you're just a terrible, terrible person. Where meanwhile, there's a guy in — a guy wearing a woman's admiral suit parading around Health and Human Services saying, oh, children have to have their testicles cut off because then he'll feel better about himself.
