Speaker 1: This is the US Report with James Moroar.
Speaker 2: Good evening, Welcome to the program. Coming up on the
Speaker 2: US Report tonight, who's really running the country? We chat
Speaker 2: the former White House Chief of Staff Mick mulvaney. Plus
Speaker 2: Joe Biden holds his big boy press conference?
Speaker 1: How did he do?
Speaker 2: And Donald Trump set to announce his VP pick as
Speaker 2: soon as next week.
Speaker 1: But the big.
Speaker 2: Question is who's it gonna be. We'll find out. But first,
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, I give you the leader of the
Speaker 2: Free World, speaking earlier at the NATO submit Washington, welcoming
Speaker 2: the leader of Ukraine.
Speaker 3: And now I want to hand it over to the
Speaker 3: president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he
Speaker 3: has determination. Ladies and gentlemen, President.
Speaker 2: Putin, President Putin. Honestly, you couldn't even get that right. Look,
Speaker 2: we'll get into everything else that's happened with the Big
Speaker 2: boy press conference. But yet again, even in the most
Speaker 2: scripted environment, with the most simple task, Joe Biden cannot
Speaker 2: help but fall on his face, which he did a
Speaker 2: little bit later on when he called his vice president,
Speaker 2: Vice President Trump.
Speaker 3: Look, I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be
Speaker 3: vice president. I think she's not qualified to be president.
Speaker 3: So let's start there.
Speaker 2: Honestly, where do you go from there? But you know what,
Speaker 2: I'll tell you something. It's more serious. This whole thing
Speaker 2: with Joe Biden is a lot more serious than just
Speaker 2: the occasional words salad or even the fact that the
Speaker 2: president likely has some sort of degenerative condition, a fact
Speaker 2: revealed to the world when all the lives of the
Speaker 2: White House and much of the press corps fell apart
Speaker 2: during Biden's horrendous debate performance last month. No, this is
Speaker 2: much bigger because several months ago on this program, I
Speaker 2: said that the United States was rapidly becoming a banana republic.
Speaker 1: And at the time I said it was.
Speaker 2: Because essentially the government was trying to put the leader
Speaker 2: of the opposition in jail. Now, this was the course
Speaker 2: of reference to the largely jumped up trials set up
Speaker 2: for Donald Trump with the behind the scenes connivance of
Speaker 2: the Biden Whitehouse. But now that all seems like a
Speaker 2: much simpler time, because the recriminations from Joe Biden's debate
Speaker 2: performance are continuing to reverberate. And yes, these recriminations are
Speaker 2: revealing the extent of a massive scandal, a massive conspiracy
Speaker 2: by the American ruling class to both hide the president's
Speaker 2: condition and, now that it has been revealed, depose him.
Speaker 2: But more importantly, this is also revealing just how utterly
Speaker 2: wondderless the United States has been for the past few
Speaker 2: years under Joe Biden. Is it any wonder that the
Speaker 2: world is in such a mess right now? In the meantime,
Speaker 2: consider this very deep in this CNN report which just
Speaker 2: went live, it's just gone up on their website, is
Speaker 2: this little detail quote, the last full cabinet meeting took
Speaker 2: place on October two, twenty twenty three.
Speaker 1: Did you get that? The last full.
Speaker 2: Meeting of President Joe Biden's cabinet was nine months ago?
Speaker 2: And it's not like, you know, there's anything going on
Speaker 2: in the world, what with an inflation crisis and Iran crisis,
Speaker 2: an Israel Palestinian crisis, an ongoing war in the Ukraine
Speaker 2: that seems destined for catastrophic escalation, North Korea ready to
Speaker 2: go nuts at any time, and a China that is
Speaker 2: biding its time. Nah, no reason to get the cabinet
Speaker 2: together there, folks. Then there was this ahead of closed
Speaker 2: door cabinet meetings. CN intervealed that Biden attends. It is
Speaker 2: customary for cabinet officials to submit questions in key talking
Speaker 2: points that they plan to present in front of Biden
Speaker 2: ahead of time to White House aids, according to two
Speaker 2: sources with direct knowledge. Now this report went on to
Speaker 2: note that under previous presidents like Obama, there was nowhere
Speaker 2: near this level of stage management or orchestration for a
Speaker 2: cabinet meeting. The entire display is kind of an act.
Speaker 1: One source to CNN.
Speaker 2: The source went on to say, they would come and say, hey,
Speaker 2: the President is going to call on you about twenty
Speaker 2: five minutes in, and you ask this question, what are
Speaker 2: the bullet points? You'll respond with sorry, but this is
Speaker 2: both unacceptable and unbelievable. This is not how a nation
Speaker 2: that is supposed to be the leader of the free world,
Speaker 2: the last defensive democracy, the begon of freedom, the seat
Speaker 2: of the most competent, wordly and transparent government history, as
Speaker 2: ordained by the founding fathers.
Speaker 1: No, this is the.
Speaker 2: Way things are in a third world banana republic, which
Speaker 2: is what the United States, especially if you've visit some
Speaker 2: of its big cities, is looking like these days, especially
Speaker 2: the way the media seems to be just playing along
Speaker 2: and not asking vital questions like how did we allow
Speaker 2: ourselves to be duped and what do we do to
Speaker 2: restore the trust of a public that believes we in
Speaker 2: the media have been lying to them for years now. Instead,
Speaker 2: and up until very recently, the US media went along
Speaker 2: with the act, or most of it did, Like when
Speaker 2: this reporter lobbed a softball question at White House spokesman
Speaker 2: kree Jean Pierre about so called cheap fake videos of
Speaker 2: Biden wandering off at the G seven.
Speaker 4: I'm wondering the White Houses especially worried about the fact
Speaker 4: that this appears to.
Speaker 5: Be a pattern number thing more on.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I think you all have called this the
Speaker 6: cheap fakes video, and that's exactly what they are. They
Speaker 6: are cheap fakes video. They are done in bad faith.
Speaker 6: In some of your news organization have been very clear,
Speaker 6: have stressed that these right wing, the white wing critics
Speaker 6: of the president have a credibility problem because of the
Speaker 6: fact checkers have repeatedly caught them pushing misinformation, disinformation.
Speaker 1: It's all cheap fanks.
Speaker 2: Again, so much of the press in the United States
Speaker 2: and here in Australia, outfits like the ABC and The
Speaker 2: Sydney Morning Hair and the Age which followed their lead
Speaker 2: have shown themselves not to be speaking truth to power,
Speaker 2: but rather defending power so long as it's Democrat power,
Speaker 2: because again they think we can't have the ordinary people
Speaker 2: know the truth and maybe considered voting for Trump.
Speaker 1: Look. Remember, if you had not been watching.
Speaker 2: The US Report and Sky News and our counterparts in
Speaker 2: the United States, but instead consumed only the Washington Post
Speaker 2: at MSNBC, the New York Times and CNN, you would
Speaker 2: not have known there was anything wrong with the president
Speaker 2: until that debate a few weeks ago left everyone with
Speaker 2: no doubt. This media protection racket for an adult president
Speaker 2: is really again third world banana republic stuff. Here's another example.
Speaker 2: The other day, just after that debate we talked about,
Speaker 2: and right before the July four weekend, Joe Biden did
Speaker 2: an interview with a Milwaukee radio station. It was pre recorded,
Speaker 2: and after the call, the radio station got a request
Speaker 2: from the White House to edit it. Among other things,
Speaker 2: according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, they cut Biden saying, quote,
Speaker 2: in addition to that, I have more blacks in my
Speaker 2: administration than any other president, all other presidents combined, and
Speaker 2: in major positions, cabinet positions. Well, of course that's a lie,
Speaker 2: But the question also is raised, how many times does
Speaker 2: this happen? The White House picks some swordes non't are that,
Speaker 2: we don't know, but it just makes the media as
Speaker 2: complicit in the Biden cover up as the White House,
Speaker 2: which has led America and the world to an entirely
Speaker 2: dangerous place. Well, on this historic day, let's bring in
Speaker 2: former White House Chief of Staff Mick mulvady. Mick, the
Speaker 2: big story is the Big Boy press conference taking place
Speaker 2: just hours after and it was delayed two or three
Speaker 2: times after that remarkable gaff in which he confused Vladimir
Speaker 2: Zelenski with Vladimir Putin. Mick mulvaney, you've been behind the
Speaker 2: scenes in the Trump White House. What do you imagine
Speaker 2: the mood was like among the White House staff as
Speaker 2: they prepared him for that press conference after that incredible gaff?
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, James, I gotta think if they're rational,
Speaker 7: they're depressed because he's not doing well. But my guess
Speaker 7: is they're not being rational that a rational staff would
Speaker 7: have tried to convince him to sort of gracefully buy
Speaker 7: out of the race.
Speaker 5: Already. So my guess is, if it's.
Speaker 7: An educated guess is they're back celebrating, thinking this is great,
Speaker 7: this is viye, this is so much better, and.
Speaker 5: He put everything to rest. He's going to be the
Speaker 5: next president I state.
Speaker 7: So there's a real cognitive disconnection between what the rest
Speaker 7: of the world is seeing and what the White House
Speaker 7: staff is saying.
Speaker 2: But I mean, speaking of cognitive disconnects, right off the bat,
Speaker 2: the first thing he does is refers to his vice
Speaker 2: president as vice President Trump.
Speaker 3: Have a look, Look, I wouldn't have picked Vice President
Speaker 3: Trump to be vice president. I think she's not qualified
Speaker 3: to be president. So let's start there.
Speaker 2: I mean, this must have been just an absolutely heart
Speaker 2: seeking moment for everybody in the Biden camp, and yet
Speaker 2: he presses on.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I was actually watching that in a new studio with
Speaker 7: a large group of people. There was just a collective
Speaker 7: groan for the Republicans, Democrats, centrist alike that this is
Speaker 7: It's been hard to watch. This is the president of
Speaker 7: the United States. There's a there's a collective feeling of
Speaker 7: sympathy and dread at the same time. So, yeah, that
Speaker 7: that's probably the worst gaff of the night. The face
Speaker 7: of James. It's not the last GAF we're going to
Speaker 7: hear from from from Joe Biden.
Speaker 2: No, And I mean that sort of combination of sympathy
Speaker 2: and dread brings up the whole question of does the
Speaker 2: president have some deeper underlying medical condition? And in the
Speaker 2: last week or so, there's been a lot of crystallization
Speaker 2: around this idea that quite possibly he's suffering from Parkinson's,
Speaker 2: which of course would be a huge tragedy for him
Speaker 2: and the Biden family. But the White House has been
Speaker 2: caught up covering up the fact that a renowned Parkston
Speaker 2: specialist has visited the presidential residence on multiple occasions. And again,
Speaker 2: the press seems very compliant in these cover ups. When
Speaker 2: you know, when Donald Trump's bild the glass of what
Speaker 2: do they tried to foist the twenty fifth Amendment on him?
Speaker 2: How do you rate the role of the press in
Speaker 2: suddenly turning on the Biden administration? A lot of them
Speaker 2: would have suspected this all along.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I had dinner this week with some prominent Democrats, the clinics,
Speaker 7: some members of the press, and they were just beside
Speaker 7: themselves as to how shocked they were to see Biden
Speaker 7: do as badly as he did, And I kept asking them,
Speaker 7: how are you possibly shocked? Have you only been reading
Speaker 7: your own materials? Every conservative in the country has been
Speaker 7: trying to raise this issue for more than two years.
Speaker 7: You and I have talked about the time that Joe
Speaker 7: Biden called on a dead person at a press conference.
Speaker 7: That was from November of twenty twenty two. So, yeah,
Speaker 7: you don't know if it's on purpose, you don't know
Speaker 7: if they just can't help themselves. But really, this whole
Speaker 7: episode has exposed a fisher in the American culture when
Speaker 7: it comes to how to deal with the truth, because
Speaker 7: there's a lot of the Democrats who've apparently been willing
Speaker 7: to sort of.
Speaker 5: Sweep the truth under the rug for a long time.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean so then the question is, Nick, where
Speaker 2: does this go from here? Obviously the President has done
Speaker 2: just enough, I would say, in this press conference today,
Speaker 2: the Big Boy press conference as they called it, to
Speaker 2: stay in the race, but he hardly hit it out
Speaker 2: of the park. What's going to happen at this Democrat
Speaker 2: convention which is coming up, because I'm hearing more reports
Speaker 2: of Commress people urging Biden stepside. Money taps being turned
Speaker 2: off and even delegates now being called to have their
Speaker 2: support checked by the Biden White House or people in
Speaker 2: the Biden camp. Is there any chance that there might
Speaker 2: be a shift or a movement at that convention.
Speaker 7: James, The best guess I've got on that again talking
Speaker 7: to people as this press conference has gone on, is
Speaker 7: this is that this wasn't bad enough to get him
Speaker 7: kicked out of the race. It's also not good enough
Speaker 7: to put all the concerns about him to bed, which
Speaker 7: means that.
Speaker 5: The slow bleed that you've seen over the.
Speaker 7: Course for the last twelve days since the debate is
Speaker 7: going to continue. You ask about the Democrat convention, it's
Speaker 7: a fascinating question, but keep in mind the Republican Convention
Speaker 7: is intervening, will begin on I think Monday in this country,
Speaker 7: and it's gonna be fascinating to see how Donald Trump
Speaker 7: handles it. Specifically, as to his selection of a vice
Speaker 7: presidential candidate, he almost has to guess as to whether
Speaker 7: or not Biden will remain at the top of the ticket,
Speaker 7: or whether or not the top of the ticket will be
Speaker 7: Paul Harris or somebody else as he makes his vice
Speaker 7: presidential pick. Because face it to be honest, you got
Speaker 7: to think that his pick for vice president would be
Speaker 7: different with a Biden Harris team or a Hairs somebody
Speaker 7: other team, or somebody else somebody else team. So it's
Speaker 7: a very difficult thing to do as a Republican to
Speaker 7: try and anticipate who you're running against. When there's no
Speaker 7: definitive answer in coming out of this press conference, the
Speaker 7: slow bleed will continue.
Speaker 5: I don't think that Joe Biden will be able to.
Speaker 7: Proceed as the Democrat nominee, but if he wants to,
Speaker 7: he will.
Speaker 2: Well, this is the thing that I find really interesting
Speaker 2: is that there's an awful lot of people who've studied
Speaker 2: and watched Joe Biden for years and years, decades, even
Speaker 2: because he's been around basically forever, who say that stubbornness
Speaker 2: is the thing that defines his presidency, his entire political life,
Speaker 2: and if he likes being president, he doesn't care what
Speaker 2: people think. Is this the ego now getting in the
Speaker 2: way of well, you know, potentially even the security of
Speaker 2: the free world.
Speaker 7: Well, a lot of that turns on whether or not
Speaker 7: that stubbornness is an inherited trait. Because we're hearing and
Speaker 7: I'm not making this up that Hunter Biden has assumed
Speaker 7: a significant leadership role within the White House right now.
Speaker 7: So the team is advising him, seems to be his family.
Speaker 7: So is his wife Jill as stubborn as he is.
Speaker 7: Is Hunter inhered to that stubbornness. If that's the case,
Speaker 7: those are probably the only people that can talk him
Speaker 7: out of running for president right now. Nancy Pelosi can't
Speaker 7: do it, Chuck Schumer can't do it. Barack Obama can't
Speaker 7: do it. Apparently George Clooney can't even do it. He's
Speaker 7: listening to his family, curious to see if that stubbornness
Speaker 7: goes beyond just him.
Speaker 2: But this is like this crazy, almost sort of downfall
Speaker 2: situation here. You know, it's the President, it's Jill, it's Hunter,
Speaker 2: all kind of bunkered down in the Oval Office. And
Speaker 2: then we've got this situation where even if the entire
Speaker 2: Democrat money machine turns off and everybody says, no, we've
Speaker 2: got to have Kamala Harris, God help us or somebody else, well,
Speaker 2: there's there's really still nothing they can do to budget him.
Speaker 1: It's just simply not possible.
Speaker 7: That's right again, when I was having dinner with the Democrats,
Speaker 7: this week with those things they made clear and they
Speaker 7: wanted everybody to understand is this is up to Joe Biden.
Speaker 7: He has the delegates necessary to become the Democrat nominee
Speaker 7: for president, period, end of story. That's not going to
Speaker 7: change unless he wants it to change. If he wants
Speaker 7: to be on that ballot in November, and he's alive,
Speaker 7: he is going to be on that ballot. So this
Speaker 7: is all at his court. It's nobody can take it
Speaker 7: away from there. I guess there's one exception. Vice President
Speaker 7: Kamala Harris could make a motion under the twenty fifth
Speaker 7: Amendment to have him declared incompetent right now for office,
Speaker 7: but I would never imagine that happening. Short of that,
Speaker 7: the ball isn't Joe Biden's court.
Speaker 2: Hey, look, you know we've talked a lot about the Bidens,
Speaker 2: but let's talk about the Trump family now for a second,
Speaker 2: because we had kind of a new hero emerged amongst
Speaker 2: the Republican Party this week. Have a look at this here.
Speaker 1: Young man.
Speaker 2: He's now going to college, gun into every.
Speaker 8: College he wanted to, and he made his choice and
Speaker 8: he's a very good guy.
Speaker 6: I'll tell you.
Speaker 2: They had a standing ovation for Trump's youngest son, Baron Trump.
Speaker 1: This was his first.
Speaker 2: Time at a campaign rally, and I saw people like
Speaker 2: Morgan Freeman on Twitter absolutely losing their mind that there
Speaker 2: could be a Trump dynasty here. Does this reveal some
Speaker 2: of the anger on Twitter and elsewhere, just how unhinged
Speaker 2: and deranged some of the people who are anti Trump
Speaker 2: out there are.
Speaker 7: Sure they're beating up on an eighteen year old kid
Speaker 7: for going to his dad's political rally. Seriously, come on,
Speaker 7: Arrangement syndrome is not limited to Donald J. Trump, There's
Speaker 7: no question about that. It goes across the entire family.
Speaker 7: So it's hard to see. Look, he's a good kid,
Speaker 7: you know. I didn't spend a lot of time with
Speaker 7: him because he was very young when I was in
Speaker 7: the White House with him.
Speaker 5: But the President thinks very very highly of him, as
Speaker 5: he should.
Speaker 7: Good looking kid. By the way, you couldn't see it,
Speaker 7: and you didn't get a perspective. I think he's like
Speaker 7: six six or six seven. Yeah, he's well over tall
Speaker 7: in the strange way that you guys measure down there.
Speaker 5: But he's an eighteen year old kid going to his
Speaker 5: dad's political relly.
Speaker 7: What's wrong with that. So look, Morgan, let Morgan Freeman
Speaker 7: be an old man yelling at clouds.
Speaker 5: That's fine, that's He's not the oldest one in the
Speaker 5: country doing that.
Speaker 1: How the mighty have fallen?
Speaker 2: Hey, before you go, Mick, I want to show you
Speaker 2: this clip of Donald Trump with Brian killed me and
Speaker 2: how a look at this on.
Speaker 1: Your vice president candidate.
Speaker 7: Word is that you will pick jd Events because of
Speaker 7: his facial hair?
Speaker 1: Is that? Is that true? Facial young Abraham Lincoln right.
Speaker 5: He's a handsome man.
Speaker 9: Doug Doug burgham on abortion in North Dakota.
Speaker 1: He signed something legislation handed him. Does that hurt him?
Speaker 1: It's an issue? And lastly, Mark Ruby an issue.
Speaker 7: Where Mark Rubio and being from Florida, would that stop
Speaker 7: you from picking him?
Speaker 9: No, but it does make it more complicated.
Speaker 1: You know you will do that, and it makes it
Speaker 1: more complicated. There are people that don't have that complication.
Speaker 2: So just come back to that question of the VP pick.
Speaker 2: There was a few names thrown out there. You got
Speaker 2: the reactions. We've spoken about some of your thoughts in
Speaker 2: the past. Who are you sticking with here? Who do
Speaker 2: you reckon?
Speaker 1: It's going to be what I'm hearing, I'll get you.
Speaker 5: Two answers that question. What I'm hearing is the JD.
Speaker 7: Vances is moved to the top of the list, and
Speaker 7: I think that makes some sense. There was a lot
Speaker 7: of discussion about his facial hair, but as soon as
Speaker 7: Donald Trump says you look like a young Abraham Lincoln,
Speaker 7: that means you look like you're from Central Casting, and
Speaker 7: he loves people who look the part. So JD certainly
Speaker 7: could be on the short part of the list. I
Speaker 7: don't think Doug Burr is going to make the final cut.
Speaker 7: The two names that I will give out, one you've
Speaker 7: heard from me before and one we haven't talked about
Speaker 7: in a while. I still think Ben Carson is in consideration,
Speaker 7: the former Secretary of Housing Interman Development in the.
Speaker 5: First Trump administration.
Speaker 7: And a name we haven't talked about in a while,
Speaker 7: Christy No, governor of South Dakota.
Speaker 5: Why is that.
Speaker 7: I think if the Trump team believes that Kamala Harris
Speaker 7: is going to be the top of the Democrat ticket,
Speaker 7: they believe they're going to need a woman as a
Speaker 7: vice president, and I think Christy Nome goes back on
Speaker 7: the list, a list she was on, by the way,
Speaker 7: for a long time until she had that blow up
Speaker 7: about shooting her dog. But I think she might have
Speaker 7: rehabilitated herself to the point where she could be back
Speaker 7: on the list.
Speaker 5: Well, no, in the next seventy two hours or so.
Speaker 2: Well, the US Report is a great lover of dogs,
Speaker 2: so I think we are not on the Christy nome bendwagon.
Speaker 2: But Mick mulvady, thank you so much for your time
Speaker 2: for joining us here on the US Report. Let's turn
Speaker 2: now to the crisis in American cities right now at
Speaker 2: New York City in particular, which is back in the
Speaker 2: headlines as the state overrun by migrants who have arrived
Speaker 2: as a result of Joe Biden's open border policies. For
Speaker 2: the latest on this and also what's going on with
Speaker 2: their trash situation, I'm joined by New York City Councilor
Speaker 2: Joe Brelly. Joe, thank you so much for coming on
Speaker 2: the US Report. A lot going on around America and
Speaker 2: around the world, but I want to talk to you
Speaker 2: about a specific story with the New York Post, which
Speaker 2: is exposed that the poorest neighborhoods in the Five Boroughs
Speaker 2: of New York are now being flooded by migrants who
Speaker 2: have been brought over and welcomed in by the Biden administration.
Speaker 2: It's causing huge quality of life issues. Tell us what
Speaker 2: this means for New Yorkers.
Speaker 8: Well, it means they're subjugated to roving packs of migrants
Speaker 8: on mopeds committing countless crimes day in and day out.
Speaker 8: These are people who came in drips and grabs in
Speaker 8: the beginning, but now there are over sixty five thousand
Speaker 8: in our care and our city. And yes, I mean
Speaker 8: a lot of these camps and hotels are located in
Speaker 8: some of the poorer communities. It's in these poorer communities
Speaker 8: where there were vacant hotel rooms, vacant buildings that can
Speaker 8: be converted into shelter, etc. So it's not surprising that
Speaker 8: there's a concentration there. The surprise, though, is that some
Speaker 8: of the politicians who represent these communities have been some
Speaker 8: of the most vocal, woke leftists who have been demanding
Speaker 8: we remain a sanctuary city and demanding we give more,
Speaker 8: not less, to these migrants. And now they're sort of
Speaker 8: backtracking as their own constituents have to deal with the
Speaker 8: backlash and the problems associated with just massive homeless shelters
Speaker 8: on every corner.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a question that I have then, is
Speaker 2: as people in these areas which are economically disadvantaged, the
Speaker 2: very aspirational people are working hard, trying to make a
Speaker 2: better life for themselves and their families. Yet what is
Speaker 2: their political reaction to their leaders, their elected officials, who
Speaker 2: then come and foist all these people in their neighborhood,
Speaker 2: who then don't have to pay rent, who get free
Speaker 2: food and get free benefits and so on, when all
Speaker 2: of the locals are struggling and working hard to provide
Speaker 2: for their families.
Speaker 8: They're very frustrated, I mean, and they're very frustrated at
Speaker 8: the sort of far left of the Democratic Party. By
Speaker 8: the way, so many of these people in these communities
Speaker 8: are migrants, immigrants really themselves, who have come here at
Speaker 8: times past legally the proper channels, or they're awaiting their
Speaker 8: citizenship and they have a US green card, and they're
Speaker 8: doing things the right way. So they are under a
Speaker 8: tremendous amount of pressure in competition for resources in these communities,
Speaker 8: and I think we're seeing them start to turn on
Speaker 8: some of the far left politicians that represent these communities.
Speaker 8: We actually almost won our state governorship last time, with
Speaker 8: Lee Zelden losing by only six points, which in New
Speaker 8: York state history that has not happened at any time
Speaker 8: in the recent past.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, we covered that very extensively on the US Report,
Speaker 2: and Kathy Hochel she had quite a scare there, because
Speaker 2: you know, New York should be running as a Democrat state.
Speaker 2: But as the tide turns on this support and on
Speaker 2: the issue of migrants as well as just the general economy,
Speaker 2: I'm hearing that senior Democrats are fearing that the traditionally
Speaker 2: blue New York might turn red. There's been a top
Speaker 2: New York Democrat who says that he believes New York
Speaker 2: is actually a battleground state. Do you agree with that assessment?
Speaker 8: I do, and maybe not for the statewide US Senate seat,
Speaker 8: that's kind of an uphill battle against an incumbent, But
Speaker 8: there are a number of House of Representative seats on
Speaker 8: Long Island and in the Hudson Valley which have become
Speaker 8: the real battleground for Congress. The internal polling has those
Speaker 8: incumbent Democrats even losing substantially to the Republican counterparts. And
Speaker 8: all this is sort of as a result not just
Speaker 8: of Kathy Hochel, not just of the Democratic failures in
Speaker 8: New York, but it's also of the burden of Joe Biden,
Speaker 8: this anchor of a president who is just weighing down
Speaker 8: so many people in swing districts around the state.
Speaker 2: And with that Biden effect, then you know that once
Speaker 2: you get sort of north of you know, Dutchess County,
Speaker 2: Columbia County, New York State turns quite Republican. Is there
Speaker 2: enough votes in it for Donald Trump in some of
Speaker 2: these marginal areas of New York City and possibly Long
Speaker 2: Island in the suburbs that could then bring I think
Speaker 2: it's what twenty eight electoral votes over in the Republican camp.
Speaker 8: It's possible, and that's the strategy. The strategy for New
Speaker 8: York has always been for Republicans to win the upstate
Speaker 8: portions significantly, getting sixty to seventy percent, to lose the city,
Speaker 8: which unfortunately we most likely will. But it's these really
Speaker 8: these competitive suburban counties where the Republican Party has been
Speaker 8: focused on and even where the Democratic Party has been
Speaker 8: forced to be focused on. They just lost an incumbent member,
Speaker 8: Jamal Bowman, who was a radical far less member, and
Speaker 8: they elected a moderate Democrat, a guy I served with
Speaker 8: the state legislature. You know, you might be a Democrat,
Speaker 8: but he's a decent human being. So we are seeing
Speaker 8: these pushbacks against Democrats in these very, very very critical districts.
Speaker 8: If Akim Jeffries wants to be the Speaker of the
Speaker 8: House and not the minority leader, he has to really
Speaker 8: do a good job winning.
Speaker 5: Some seats in his home state.
Speaker 8: I don't think that happens with Kathy Hochel and the
Speaker 8: migrants and all the prices here, and I don't think
Speaker 8: this happens any chance with Joe Biden on top of
Speaker 8: the ticket.
Speaker 2: Oh it's a great reminder that, you know, there's so
Speaker 2: much at stake downplay control of the Senate, control of
Speaker 2: the House, and all of these other offices. But before
Speaker 2: I let you go, I also have to talk to
Speaker 2: you about this as a fellow New Yorker. And despite
Speaker 2: all this chaos, Mayor Eric Adams he's now found the
Speaker 2: time to reveal that there's a new bin regime in
Speaker 2: New York. Here he is a couple of days ago.
Speaker 2: Now what's amazing about this is apparently the city spent
Speaker 2: something like four million US dollars with McKinsey to figure
Speaker 2: out how to have trash bins.
Speaker 1: Tell us about this.
Speaker 8: Well, look, you know, this is not really a totally
Speaker 8: bad development. You know, we have to pay consultants to
Speaker 8: you know, figure some stuff out because our sanitation department
Speaker 8: is larger than the Army of the Republic of Ireland.
Speaker 8: So it is a pretty big system that we have
Speaker 8: to manage. And frankly, we do have a trash problem
Speaker 8: and a rat problem. And the reason we have these
Speaker 8: problems is because a lot of New Yorkers simply can't
Speaker 8: figure out how to put their trash in a proper bin.
Speaker 5: So I'm not really opposed.
Speaker 8: I'm opposed to the cost of this. Unfortunately, this is
Speaker 8: a burden homeowners with a forty five dollars pail that
Speaker 8: they have to buy three of. If it was free,
Speaker 8: like many municipalities around the country, and you pay for
Speaker 8: the service as part of your property taxes, I wouldn't
Speaker 8: have any problem with it whatsoever. I just don't want
Speaker 8: the extra cost. But we do have a rat problem
Speaker 8: and this will hopefully solve that fair enough.
Speaker 2: But you know what, I think four million dollars for
Speaker 2: Mackenzie they could have asked Oscar the Grouch and gotten
Speaker 2: that advice for free. Thank you so much, Joe Brelly.
Speaker 2: Now after the break, are we watching us low motion coup?
Speaker 2: Newsweek's Batia Angar Sargan joins me to talk about the
Speaker 2: elite push to dump Biden and how no matter what happens,
Speaker 2: American democracy is screwed. But before that, it's pretty well
Speaker 2: established that Jill Biden, oh sorry, doctor Jill Biden, yes,
Speaker 2: that's right, absolutely loves being First Lady. But I want
Speaker 2: to show you something that really reveals just how much
Speaker 2: she loves the office. Now you know how presidents always
Speaker 2: have the band strike up Hail to the Chief. Well,
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, Jill Biden got the US
Speaker 2: Marine Band to compose her own theme music. I present
Speaker 2: to you the utterly cringe composition, Fanfare for the First Lady.
Speaker 2: And it goes on and on and on, and they
Speaker 2: only stop using that music when Washington journalists Team Beckett
Speaker 2: Adams started asking questions and embarrassed the White House into
Speaker 2: shelving that little ditty. So if you think Lady Macbeth
Speaker 2: of the pot Tobac is giving up power easily, well
Speaker 2: again think again Newsweek's batcha a. Gar Saragan joins me
Speaker 2: after the break, don't go anywhere, Welcome back to the program.
Speaker 2: In a moment, I'll be joined by a very special
Speaker 2: guest who thinks we should all be concerned that American
Speaker 2: elites are trying to boot Joe Biden after foisting him
Speaker 2: on the world for four years.
Speaker 1: But first, it looks like.
Speaker 2: Joe Biden has lost a key Democrat constituency. No, I'm
Speaker 2: not talking about the Congressional Black Caucus or the CNN newsroom.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: Hollywood, where the stars are no longer aligned for Joe Biden,
Speaker 2: but instead increasingly seem to want him out of the race.
Speaker 2: One of the huge stories over the past twenty four
Speaker 2: hours has been George Clooney's op ed in The New
Speaker 2: York Times, in which he writes that he loves Joe Biden,
Speaker 2: though possibly not enough to shower with him, but despite this,
Speaker 2: the President should step aside. Why well, because he has
Speaker 2: finally admitted what the rest of us have known for
Speaker 2: a while. Joe Biden's mind and body are failing and
Speaker 2: he's not up to the job. Of course, he only
Speaker 2: admitted this because of what happened at that debate, when again,
Speaker 2: there was no place for this to hide, writes Clooney, quote,
Speaker 2: our party leaders need to stop telling us that fifty
Speaker 2: one million people didn't see what we just saw. As Democrats,
Speaker 2: we collectively hold our breath or turn down the volume
Speaker 2: whenever we see the president whom we respect, walk on
Speaker 2: fair force one or walk back to a mic to
Speaker 2: answer an unscripted question.
Speaker 1: And then Cloudy wrote.
Speaker 2: This, It's devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden
Speaker 2: I was with three weeks ago at a fundraiser was
Speaker 2: not the Joe big effing deal Biden of twenty ten.
Speaker 2: He wasn't even the Joe Biden of twenty twenty. He
Speaker 2: was the same man we all witnessed at the debate. Well, really, George,
Speaker 2: thanks for telling us. Let's go have a look at
Speaker 2: that fundraiser, shall we. This is vision of what happened there.
Speaker 2: Remember when Joe Biden froze on stage and Barack Obama
Speaker 2: had to lead him off. Remember that we played that
Speaker 2: clip on this program. But remember what happened when people
Speaker 2: asked White House flat Karine Jean Pierre about it.
Speaker 6: President Obama President Biden have a relationship. They are friends.
Speaker 6: They're like family to each other. And I think that's
Speaker 6: what you saw. So the President put his hand behind
Speaker 6: on the back of a President Biden, and they walked
Speaker 6: off the stage after taking questions or at an event,
Speaker 6: taking questions from Jimmy Kimmel.
Speaker 1: That is what you saw.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everything was fine. She wanted us to believe it
Speaker 2: was fine. Clooney wanted us to believe it was fine.
Speaker 2: Everyone knew, but like some sort of dysfunctional family, nobody
Speaker 2: wanted to say anything until the debate and Joe Biden's
Speaker 2: performance made it impossible to say otherwise. So forgive me,
Speaker 2: But George Clooney is not brave for coming out and
Speaker 2: saying Biden should quit. He's a coward for hiding what
Speaker 2: he knew until it was popular to say it. All right,
Speaker 2: I'm thrilled to bring in Newsweek Magazine opinion editor Botia
Speaker 2: Ongar Sargeant. Botya, thanks so much for coming on the
Speaker 2: US report. First of all, I gotta ask you, what
Speaker 2: did you make of the Big Boy press conference?
Speaker 9: Thank you so much for having me, James, It's always
Speaker 9: to be here with you. Honestly, I think he did
Speaker 9: pretty good. This is an old man, but he did
Speaker 9: not seem infirm, And honestly, I was really happy to
Speaker 9: see that, because I am so disgusted with the elites
Speaker 9: in the Democratic Party and in Hollywood and in the
Speaker 9: media effectively trying to do a coup against a duly
Speaker 9: elected president. And it's not just that it is totally
Speaker 9: anti democratic, and this of course from the defenders of democracy.
Speaker 9: It's that these are the president's oldest friends and allies
Speaker 9: who turned on a dime when they realized that they
Speaker 9: could no longer hide what they had been hiding from
Speaker 9: the American people. Just as you pointed out, George Colooney
Speaker 9: raised thirty million dollars for President Biden when he had
Speaker 9: exclusive access to him and we did not. And when
Speaker 9: he thought that he could still hide President Biden's stay
Speaker 9: from the American people, he was happy to keep raising
Speaker 9: money and pushing him through to the finish line. It
Speaker 9: was only when he realized that he can't beat President
Speaker 9: Trump that suddenly all the elites are turning on him.
Speaker 9: They have no problem with a failing person being the president.
Speaker 9: They only have a problem with him failing to win
Speaker 9: against Donald Trump. And I'll just make one more brief
Speaker 9: point here, please, there's been reporting that Clooney consulted with
Speaker 9: President Obama before running his op ed, and so in
Speaker 9: addition to the malice against President Biden, you have this
Speaker 9: absolute cowardice where President Obama can't say what he thinks,
Speaker 9: so he's hiding behind George Clooney, where Nancy Pelosi and
Speaker 9: Chuck Schumer can't say what they think, so they're hiding
Speaker 9: behind vulnerable representatives from swing states, the Perfidy, the lying,
Speaker 9: the the Menia, which had access to President Biden and
Speaker 9: knew this and kept it from the American people, and
Speaker 9: now turning on a dime in lockstep to push him
Speaker 9: out because the American people found out on their own
Speaker 9: what the truth is. This is some of the most
Speaker 9: disgusting things I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 2: James, Well, this is a really fascinating thing because on one level,
Speaker 2: it feels like, you know, the American elite or a
Speaker 2: giant dysfunctional family where everybody agrees not to talk about
Speaker 2: Uncle Joe's medical problems with the fact that he shouldn't
Speaker 2: be allowed to drive a car or have nuclear codes anymore.
Speaker 2: On the other hand, though, this really does seem like
Speaker 2: a sinister kind of political thing because it's like the
Speaker 2: elites say, we are going to decide who the president is,
Speaker 2: and as long as it's not Trump, we will shuffle
Speaker 2: the cards and shuffle around on the table just so
Speaker 2: that we have somebody there who is not the guy
Speaker 2: who's going to call time on our whole grift.
Speaker 9: That is absolutely correct. The same side that casts self
Speaker 9: as the defenders of democracy are now trying to get
Speaker 9: you to believe that in order to defend democracy they
Speaker 9: have to actually enact a coup against a duly elected president.
Speaker 9: It is that insane. The same media that for years
Speaker 9: has hidden Joe Biden's situation from the American people, for
Speaker 9: years demanded people get fired for asking questions about it,
Speaker 9: those same people now want you to believe that they're
Speaker 9: just doing their jobs asking the tough questions about which
Speaker 9: doctors the president has seen, and what's going on in
Speaker 9: his cabinet and all of this stuff that, yes, is
Speaker 9: terrible and terrifying. And yet why were they not reporting
Speaker 9: on this for the last year when it was still
Speaker 9: the case. And it's because for the last year they
Speaker 9: thought they could hide it from the American people and
Speaker 9: send out a person who they believe is cognitively impaired
Speaker 9: to beat Donald Trump, and that is where you see
Speaker 9: the whole edifice start to break down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're still trying to scare people about Trump too,
Speaker 2: with this whole question about Project twenty twenty five, which
Speaker 2: is this Heritage Foundation thing not a Trump policy platform.
Speaker 2: Very quickly, Batchia, it seems like they're trying to distract
Speaker 2: from the Trump platform, which has an awful lot of
Speaker 2: things which would be popular about ending inflation, stopping wars,
Speaker 2: rebuilding cities, shutting down Hamas radicals, and closing the borders.
Speaker 2: They don't want people talking about this because Trump can
Speaker 2: win on it.
Speaker 9: That's exactly right. They're trying to pin Project twenty twenty
Speaker 9: five on Trump. But Trump's platform, which came out last week,
Speaker 9: the RNC twenty twenty four GOP platform, which has Trump's
Speaker 9: fingerprints all over it, departs not just from the very
Speaker 9: conservative Project twenty twenty five, but from forty years of
Speaker 9: GOP platforms in that there's nothing about being pro life
Speaker 9: because Trump be leieves abortion should be legal for fifteen weeks.
Speaker 9: There's nothing opposing gay marriage in it, and he insists
Speaker 9: on protecting Social Security and medicare. These are all things
Speaker 9: that are very much a departure from Project twenty twenty
Speaker 9: five and the history of platforms. But the rest of
Speaker 9: the platform is very popular as well, as you say.
Speaker 2: Well, indeed, Batcha and I've always said, you know, whoever
Speaker 2: thinks the New York property developer who's been married a
Speaker 2: million times is going to be some sort of social
Speaker 2: conservative really needs their head examine. Thank you so much,
Speaker 2: Batschia on Gar Sargan. Now, after the break, we're going
Speaker 2: to have a discussion about immigration, borders and all sorts
Speaker 2: of stuff. But first, absolutely wild scenes in the White
Speaker 2: House press briefing room this week. Check out what happened
Speaker 2: when Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocey brought the
Speaker 2: hammer down on Koreine Jean Pierre and asked the all
Speaker 2: important question, what happens if something goes wrong?
Speaker 1: After Joe Biden goes to bed.
Speaker 5: The President says that his health is fine, but it's
Speaker 5: just his brain and that he's sharpest before.
Speaker 6: He's joking, by the way, I just want to make
Speaker 6: sure that that's out there, and he was making a
Speaker 6: light hearted joke as he was speaking off he's speaking
Speaker 6: off the cuff and was making a joke. You know,
Speaker 6: the President.
Speaker 1: He likes to joke a lot.
Speaker 6: He's the same guy who says, I know I look
Speaker 6: forty right, So he likes to make jokes.
Speaker 1: It is a joke here.
Speaker 6: I think people laugh when he says it.
Speaker 8: Well, he also said he's sharpest before eight pm.
Speaker 2: I think kjp's head was about to go full mushroom
Speaker 2: cloud there migration madness in a tick, don't go away.
Speaker 2: Welcome back to the program on this absolutely crazy day
Speaker 2: in Washington, I am thrilled to bring in a new
Speaker 2: face on the program this evening. Please welcome Nate Hawkman.
Speaker 2: He's a senior advisor at America twenty one hundred, which
Speaker 2: is a group that states, in its own words that
Speaker 2: America deserves a future as great as it's passed. And
Speaker 2: you know what, I find that pretty hard to disagree with.
Speaker 1: Nate.
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for joining me on the US Report.
Speaker 2: Welcome to the program. I wanted to first of all
Speaker 2: talk to you about a piece you've written in the
Speaker 2: American Spectator magazine that makes a very interesting point, suggesting
Speaker 2: essentially that Joe Biden for all of the flaws that
Speaker 2: we see and the mental difficulties and the word salads
Speaker 2: and everything else, he's actually a perfect representative of the
Speaker 2: ruling class. And in this piece you write and forgive
Speaker 2: me for coding a length that Biden may not resemble
Speaker 2: the younger, more diverse, and more cunning members of his
Speaker 2: shadow cabinet that have been running his presidency for the
Speaker 2: past three and a half years.
Speaker 1: But in a more.
Speaker 2: Fundamental sense, he is the personification of the broader social
Speaker 2: forces they represent. Enervated, humiliated, and alone, the bureaucratic state
Speaker 2: slouches towards November, no longer sure of who they are
Speaker 2: or what they stand for. They tell us about what
Speaker 2: you meant by all of this.
Speaker 4: Right, Well, first of all, thanks so much for having me.
Speaker 4: The point of that column was to say, you know,
Speaker 4: obviously Biden's problems are self evident, but in many ways
Speaker 4: his problems are a personification of everything that's wrong with
Speaker 4: the broader sort of American elite, both in and outside
Speaker 4: of government. He's running on a story that he tells
Speaker 4: about himself in the country that nobody believes anymore, using
Speaker 4: slogans that have been drained of all meaning, and appealing
Speaker 4: to institutions that have lost all legitimacy. And he has
Speaker 4: thus far used that as a crutch to try to
Speaker 4: hold up his presidency. But what you've seen over the
Speaker 4: last couple of months in particular, is that it's really
Speaker 4: all falling apart, and I think his team is starting
Speaker 4: to realize that.
Speaker 2: Well, and who is this managerial class, this elite class.
Speaker 2: Tell us about exactly who these people are, because Donald
Speaker 2: Trump talks about the swamp and people talk about the elite,
Speaker 2: but really explain to our viewers who these sorts of
Speaker 2: folks are, what offices they hold, it, how they kind
Speaker 2: of managed to pull the springs behind the scenes.
Speaker 4: Well, look, every society has an elite, every society has
Speaker 4: a ruling class, and there's nothing wrong with that, per se.
Speaker 4: But the character of a country depends to an extent
Speaker 4: on the character of its elite, of the people who
Speaker 4: run the country, and America for the last sixty plus
Speaker 4: years has been run by bureaucrats, effectively, both in the
Speaker 4: federal bureaucracy in Washington, d c. But also their counterparts
Speaker 4: in you know, big media, big business, big culture, etc.
Speaker 4: You can go down the line, and these are people
Speaker 4: who are very much part of the same social strutu
Speaker 4: they're educated in the same elite institutions they believe the
Speaker 4: same things. They're often quite literally located in the same
Speaker 4: geographic enclaves in a couple urban centers, and they are
Speaker 4: a class of people in a coherent sense, and they
Speaker 4: are the people who really bear the responsibility for the
Speaker 4: disastrous decisions that America and more broadly Western civilization has
Speaker 4: been led down over the last few decades. In particular.
Speaker 2: Well, Nan, I mean, this is something that we see
Speaker 2: completely with this situation where the media covered for the
Speaker 2: Biden White House and all of their lines that you know,
Speaker 2: he's fine and all of the things that we show
Speaker 2: on this program about how he's not fine is just
Speaker 2: cheap fakes, and they do it without any sort of
Speaker 2: coordinating kind of effort. You would suggest that, I guess
Speaker 2: it's more of a hive mind mentality, where a similar
Speaker 2: set of outlooks leads to a similar set of outcomes.
Speaker 4: No, I think that's the perfect way to put it. Obviously,
Speaker 4: you do have things that you could call conspiracies. You
Speaker 4: do have sort of coordinated attempts to do certain things
Speaker 4: like cover up the Hunter Biden laptop, to use a
Speaker 4: recent example. But more broadly, this is a kind of
Speaker 4: self running machine where you don't need a degree of
Speaker 4: centralized coordination because everyone has the same worldview and the
Speaker 4: same objectives and the same goals and perhaps most importantly,
Speaker 4: the same enemies and the same thing that they are
Speaker 4: working against, and therefore it works as a well oiled machine. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yes, So it's basically like, oh, well, you know, we
Speaker 2: all agree that Trump is evil. Trump is the devil.
Speaker 2: So whatever we do to stop him, even it means
Speaker 2: lying and covering up for this huge scandalous health problem
Speaker 2: in the White House, that's.
Speaker 4: Okay, exactly, and even more fundamentally, what Trump represents is
Speaker 4: everything in terms of the values and the identities that
Speaker 4: this class of people is against. He represents the precise
Speaker 4: old America that these people define themselves in opposition too.
Speaker 4: They are the quote unquote New America, and Trump is
Speaker 4: the old white, chauvinistic Christian America that they've spent the
Speaker 4: last sixty years basically trying to destroy. And as a result,
Speaker 4: Trump is the existential threat to these people's power and
Speaker 4: to their conception of themselves. And that's why, again, you
Speaker 4: don't need a level of coordination, because they're all going
Speaker 4: to work against him in tandem regardless.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think that's a really interesting point
Speaker 2: you make about sort of who these new class people
Speaker 2: are and everything else in that hive mind. But also
Speaker 2: one of the things that I've heard you talk about
Speaker 2: too is I thought this was hilarious the backlash against
Speaker 2: the idea that Kamala Harris was a diversity pick. Now,
Speaker 2: Joe Biden and his White House were pretty explicit when
Speaker 2: they picked her that this was to balance out the
Speaker 2: ticket from a diversity point of view. But now suddenly
Speaker 2: everybody's gotten mad at the New York Post for suggesting that, yeah,
Speaker 2: in fact, she was a DEI higher But come on, right.
Speaker 4: No, I mean conservatives in America. Maybe there's a corollary
Speaker 4: phrase that you guys use over there. We call this
Speaker 4: the celebration parallact, which is summed up by the phrase
Speaker 4: that's not happening and it's good that it is. And
Speaker 4: that's the attitude you hear from you know, the media
Speaker 4: on a whole host of different issues, which is, effectively,
Speaker 4: we're allowed to celebrate something and point out that it's
Speaker 4: happening in a good way. But if anyone on the
Speaker 4: right points out that it's happening and says, but that's bad,
Speaker 4: you know then as a total conspiracy right, So you
Speaker 4: can celebrate Paula Harris at de Ipeck a victory for DEI,
Speaker 4: but you can't criticize it.
Speaker 2: I love this idea of the celebration parallax here, and
Speaker 2: I suspect there's an awful lot of that that also
Speaker 2: goes into the way that we discuss immigration in the
Speaker 2: United States. And you've noted that there's this really interesting
Speaker 2: phenomenon where migrants are, of course more likely to favor
Speaker 2: more migration. So in a sense, there's kind of this
Speaker 2: The real reason why I would suspect then you're suggesting
Speaker 2: is that they're so keen on open borders is to
Speaker 2: permanently change the kind of direction that the country goes.
Speaker 2: Now we get dismissed as being conspiracy theorists for that,
Speaker 2: but I think there's probably something to that.
Speaker 1: What do you think, Nate, No.
Speaker 4: I'm glad you pointed it out that out because that
Speaker 4: was originally the concept that the celebration parallax was used for.
Speaker 4: I mean, we hear talk about the quote unquote great
Speaker 4: replacement and how it's a right wing conspiracy theory. People
Speaker 4: on the left in America have been explicitly celebrating the
Speaker 4: fact that American demographics are changing drastically and that's going
Speaker 4: to make America more liberal per decade. You can look
Speaker 4: in the pages of the New York Times in the
Speaker 4: Washington Post. They're saying this is happening, and isn't it great.
Speaker 4: But if anyone on the right points out that it's
Speaker 4: happening and says, hey, maybe I might have some concerns
Speaker 4: about how this is going to affect my country, then
Speaker 4: it's a dangerous right wing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and it becomes alt right anyway. Nate Hawkman,
Speaker 2: thank you so much for joining us here on the
Speaker 2: US Report. We'll definitely have you back again. Thank you
Speaker 2: so much for your time on this historic day. Now,
Speaker 2: before we go to the break, let me make clear
Speaker 2: one more time that despite all the president's troubles, the
Speaker 2: Democrats and I talk about this as the Democrat Party,
Speaker 2: are still in this race. And I don't care what
Speaker 2: the polls say about Trump being up. It's a long
Speaker 2: way to go to November, and as we know, anything
Speaker 2: can happen. Just check this little clip out. It's an
Speaker 2: interview CNN did with somebody who I suspect is a
Speaker 2: fairly typical Democrat voter who thinks Joe Biden is not
Speaker 2: up to it, Kamala Harris is not qualified and is
Speaker 2: still gonna go vote for the Democrats no matter what.
Speaker 9: Did he look to you like someone who could serve
Speaker 9: for president for four and a half more years?
Speaker 5: I don't I think that.
Speaker 6: Let me put it this way, I'm voting for the
Speaker 6: party right now.
Speaker 7: Do you think Vice President Harris it's qualified to be president?
Speaker 2: No Trump stamp supporters Trump campaign, if you're watching, don't
Speaker 2: get cocky. Now Only in America after the break, welcome
Speaker 2: back to the program. Now it's time for a little
Speaker 2: segment we like to call Only in America. Well, today's
Speaker 2: Only in America takes us to this phenomenal interview with
Speaker 2: California Congresswoman Maxine Waters, who reveals that it is possible
Speaker 2: to change your entire hairstyle in thirty seconds while on
Speaker 2: live TV.
Speaker 10: They've seen President Biden, they've lived through his presidency. They've
Speaker 10: also seen former President Trump. They've lived through his presidency.
Speaker 10: They've heard these arguments about democracy, about the fate of
Speaker 10: the election, and yet Trump is not only winning, but
Speaker 10: winning increasingly by a larger margin. So what is the
Speaker 10: plan among Democrats to change that trajectory. It sounds like
Speaker 10: you're talking about saying and doing all the same things,
Speaker 10: But do you believe that something needs to change.
Speaker 1: I think we need to keep working.
Speaker 2: Wow, well she's working it all right. That's all the
Speaker 2: time we've got for this week. Gosh, I wish I
Speaker 2: had enough here to do that on air, wiz or
Speaker 2: really do it anywhere. Have great week, See you next
Speaker 2: time when we all come together on burden by what
Speaker 2: has been.
Speaker 1: Bye bye
