Any Friday's with -- -- -- segment tonight Clint -- surprise appearance at the Republican Convention was perhaps the most unique.

Perplexing engaging a controversial convention speech ever.

Some of their views -- spot well we'll let you be the judge take a lesson.

We own this country.

Okay.

-- Yes we.

We -- and it's not view owning it and not politicians -- it politicians are employees of ours.

And just gonna come around and beg for votes every few years and it's a single deal but I just think that.

It's important did you realize that that independent and did -- the best in the world.

And the -- Democrat or whether you're a pro Republican and when -- libertarian or whatever.

Because the best and we should not ever forget dad and we when somebody does not do the job.

We've got to let him go.

Joining us now from New York Fox News anchor.

Geraldo Rivera now are are all the let me just tell you right off the bat.

I loved Clint Eastwood from beginning to end because it had everyone on edge.

It was an unscripted moment and -- buttoned up convention.

And I think I think -- Romney is on the edge of their seat I think people in the in the in the place eight or not they love that.

And it drove the left absolutely bonkers I loved it I loved every minute of a -- had.

Well as the person Laura who previously had the most notorious relationship with the chair I am honored that he stole my territory there you know.

I got my -- -- famously broken by one.

And it -- talked about that it's the only thing trending now is absolutely -- skewered Mitt Romney speech.

I thought it was before Hillary I thought it was really badly done.

To get -- do stand up comedy yep that good writing yet that you know he went off at twelve minutes and it I notice you excerpted you know clip at the top if someone had done that to the twelve minutes and cut it down.

To a couple of minutes it would have been much more sustainable.

Would have been -- here would have flowed more would have been so anxiety producing people on -- -- any.

You know four and Romney biting her car while it was just those -- -- -- -- That in -- it maybe it could've been all of shorter okay but remember he's got he improvise is at the piano right he's a jazz pianists is a -- -- that many talents obviously dad director.

Actor writer.

Musician.

So is up there improvising he didn't have the the slick teleprompter -- and I don't think I think as Marc Stein stated I don't think that would work for.

Look at that idea financial life is like he's wearing his grandfather -- -- why don't.

Thank you don't think he did that on her I don't that you did at all I'd tell you I think that the whole thing with the hair -- it looks like he got out -- Joe's Joe's bar stumbled in to do this.

To do okay you know ticket -- way too casually you have an audience of tens of millions of people.

You're bringing -- he had not present in about I nominate the person you want to be president of the united throughout you know I realize it's not -- -- for levity though it.

You know it's time for eleven in my god -- we need some laughs I mean -- didn't -- the kind of worries these dilemma lasts long -- well actually I think this I'd be curious to what Jon Stewart -- -- poke fun of it but I saw him more as a warm up.

For Marco Rubio right the mark on the random -- -- -- -- extent but this is more like.

Don Rickles and American politics and this is -- I -- -- problem a lot is -- -- -- have you have you said anything similar about.

The following liberal -- people and and celebrity in them -- come out for Abbas is currently no conservative that there might be angry at.

-- need to be presented in a way.

Where -- -- speech was terrific Romney was strong and humane.

And it.

-- -- but when you have this kind of distraction.

Was making -- I was -- at the president the United States there's no nobility there are no doubt you know -- it's not act on it.

And -- or brilliantly.

Clever satire nothing it's just the guy going up and down damn thing I can go up and -- -- twelve minutes like to be funnier than that it was I don't what it looked like -- doubt that I'd -- if two year old man who lost his way that's -- a lot lot.

You are all doubt but you could never have done what -- has inflicted last night neither could I -- you could not done but I forget guns ledger.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- The last does not have a monopoly on minority spot nor does -- have a monopoly on the entertainment spot in this country and that's what's driven eleven guys you know that was on the left -- that was aren't let's let's talk about something -- and -- I would agree on.

With which -- be testimonials by the other couples have been helped.

By Mitt Romney over the years so David Blaine -- specifically this out one particular part of the presentation what -- In 1979.

Tragedy struck out -- When -- youngest son David.

-- diagnosed through.

Hodgkin's disease.

Throughout that agonizing period and it took time from his busy schedule to visit David.

They developed a loving friendship.

How many men do you know would take the time out of their busy lives.

To visit the terminally ill fourteen year old and help him settle his affairs.

Our own diary I I was I don't I missed it was crying when I saw that coupled it was so real and they they gave life.

To Mitt Romney who -- has this image of an aristocrat.

As a guy who's above the fray you mentioned the monopoly man with the top hat.

But here's a couple telling a story from the heart.

In a way that was so -- didn't see your humanizing this guy that's exactly what you -- to remember and that's exactly like -- who was such a disaster.

Hi thank you -- remembers that couple now they only -- -- stupid -- I think people remember all of I think -- have the ability to take Camelot and from different aspects of that but -- although we really appreciate it thanks -- have a nice weekend.
