Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis: O’Reilly Update Morning Edition, June 17, 2025
In the June 17, 2025 episode of Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis, host Bill O’Reilly delivers a comprehensive overview of the current political landscape, focusing on the aftermath of the November elections, evaluations of key political figures, and public reactions to presidential actions. The episode is meticulously structured to provide listeners with insightful analysis and unfiltered commentary on pressing national issues.
Election Results and Voter Behavior
Bill O’Reilly opens the episode by reflecting on the November elections, highlighting that 75 million Americans voted for Kamala Harris to lead the nation. He emphasizes that this substantial voter turnout occurred despite Harris's unwavering support for every Biden policy. O’Reilly suggests that many voters chose Harris not necessarily because they were fervently in favor of her policies, but rather as a strategic move against Donald Trump.
“So it is my theory that the majority of Harris voters cast their ballots against Donald Trump rather than for the misguided Kamala.” (00:20)
Assessment of Kamala Harris as a Presidential Candidate
O’Reilly offers a critical perspective on Kamala Harris’s candidacy, describing her communication style unfavorably. He characterizes Harris as "one of the most inarticulate presidential candidates ever," comparing her unfavorably to other public figures to underscore his point.
“She makes silent Cal Coolidge look like Stephen A. Smith.” (00:30)
This analogy serves to illustrate his view of Harris's effectiveness in public speaking and leadership, suggesting that her demeanor and articulation may have played a significant role in voter sentiment.
Analysis of Donald Trump's Presidency and Policy Implementation
Shifting focus to the current president, Donald Trump, O’Reilly provides a nuanced assessment. He distinguishes between Trump's rhetoric and his actual policy execution, asserting that while Trump may "change his mind frequently and uses hyperbola to make points," his administration has largely followed through on campaign promises.
“My assessment of Donald Trump is based on what he does, not what he says because he changes his mind frequently and uses hyperbola to make points.” (00:50)
O’Reilly highlights that more than 80 million Americans voted for Trump, underscoring a significant base of support that appreciates Trump's consistency in policy implementation.
“Trump is doing what he said he would do. That's refreshing for his supporters, infuriating for the Biden Kamala people.” (01:10)
This statement underscores the polarization in American politics, where Trump's fulfillment of campaign promises is seen as a positive by his supporters and a negative by his detractors.
Public Demonstrations and Opinions on Trump
Addressing recent public demonstrations, O’Reilly notes the emergence of "no king" demonstrations across the country, indicative of widespread dissatisfaction with Trump among certain segments of the population. He characterizes these protests as a manifestation of deep-seated animosity toward the president.
“Thousands [of] Americans loathe Mr. Trump and will no matter what he does.” (01:00)
O’Reilly attributes this animosity to what he describes as an "age of narcissism," where individuals are unwilling to admit mistakes, thus exacerbating political tensions.
“In this age of narcissism, many folks will never admit mistakes.” (01:05)
Conclusion and Final Thoughts
Concluding his analysis, O’Reilly reiterates his belief in the strength and stability of the American presidency, dismissing notions of Trump being akin to a monarch.
“The USA will never crown a king.” (01:25)
He warns of potential challenges ahead, metaphorically referring to “court jesters,” which may symbolize political adversaries or trivial distractions that could undermine governance.
Final Remarks
Bill O’Reilly wraps up the episode by reaffirming his commitment to providing no-spin, factual analysis, positioning himself as a steadfast source of information amidst a tumultuous political environment.
“That is the Morning O'Reilly update. More analysis later on.” (02:38)
This episode serves as a thorough examination of the current political dynamics, offering listeners a clear and direct perspective on the actions and implications of recent electoral and presidential developments.
