WEBVTT - Trump’s Most Dangerous Threat Yet | Steve Schmidt

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Here's Donald Trump, nearing the midpoint of his tenure as

0:00:03.480 --> 0:00:07.640
<v Speaker 1>forty seventh president of the United States, suggesting he's not

0:00:07.880 --> 0:00:11.240
<v Speaker 1>leaving when his final term of office is over.

0:00:11.840 --> 0:00:16.400
<v Speaker 2>But we're doing some unbelievable business chips.

0:00:16.440 --> 0:00:18.720
<v Speaker 3>Will have a big percentage of the chip business by

0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:21.120
<v Speaker 3>the time I leave office, which could be a.

0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:24.320
<v Speaker 2>Long time, who knows. But he could also be fairly quick,

0:00:25.320 --> 0:00:27.600
<v Speaker 2>they say two in af US. We're going to find out.

0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:31.920
<v Speaker 1>What should the reaction to this be across the country.

0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Certainly at this point it's exhausting. It tunes people out.

0:00:36.640 --> 0:00:40.440
<v Speaker 1>It makes me tune out, frankly, but we cannot afford

0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:44.600
<v Speaker 1>to be tuned out. Our defiance can never sleep.

0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 2>This is the warning.

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:52.280
<v Speaker 1>Listen to the fascist Stephen Miller. But before we do,

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:57.840
<v Speaker 1>let's watch two short clips. The first is Stephen Miller

0:00:57.880 --> 0:01:03.240
<v Speaker 1>in high school. Let's see a young Nazi coming into Bloom.

0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:08.959
<v Speaker 4>In concern to the issue of the Iraqi civilians, I

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:11.400
<v Speaker 4>think that as many of them should survive as possible.

0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:15.840
<v Speaker 4>But is the goal with any military conflict. It's to

0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:18.080
<v Speaker 4>kill as few people as possible. But as Asadom we

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 4>Stan and his henchmen, I think the ideal solution will

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.920
<v Speaker 4>be to cut off their fingers. I do only thing

0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:27.040
<v Speaker 4>it's necessary to kill them entirely. We're not of barbaric people.

0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:30.440
<v Speaker 4>We respect life. Therefore, torture is the way to go.

0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:32.240
<v Speaker 4>Because torture people can live.

0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:37.400
<v Speaker 3>Torture is the celebration of life and human dignity. We

0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:40.959
<v Speaker 3>need to remember that as we enter these very dark

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 3>and dangerous times in the next century. And I only

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:45.880
<v Speaker 3>hope that many of my peers and people who will

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 3>be leaving this country will appreciate the value and respect

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:51.160
<v Speaker 3>that torture shows those other cultures.

0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>This is Stephen Miller at the disgrace that was the

0:01:56.680 --> 0:02:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Charlie Kirk Memorial Service. This speech is as close as

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 1>you can get to a goble speech.

0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:12.000
<v Speaker 5>Literally, we will prevail over the forces of wickedness and evil.

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:17.960
<v Speaker 5>They cannot imagine what they have awakened. They cannot conceive

0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 5>of the army that they have arisen in all of us,

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:27.239
<v Speaker 5>because we stand for what is good, what is virtuous,

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:30.919
<v Speaker 5>what is noble. And to those trying to incite violence

0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:34.839
<v Speaker 5>against us, those trying to foment hatred against.

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Us, what do you have?

0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:41.920
<v Speaker 5>You have nothing, You are nothing, You are wickedness, You

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:45.080
<v Speaker 5>are jealousy, you are envy, you are hatred.

0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:46.960
<v Speaker 2>You are nothing.

0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 5>You can build nothing, you can produce nothing.

0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:56.080
<v Speaker 1>And here is Stephen Miller talking about a Cold war

0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.600
<v Speaker 1>between the West and the Soviet Union.

0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:03.880
<v Speaker 6>We spent decades fighting a Cold war with the Soviet Union.

0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:06.959
<v Speaker 6>Now I choose my words carefully, but I'm going to

0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 6>say this tonight, Sean, that cold war has come home.

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:15.720
<v Speaker 6>It's here in America. This is the biggest, greatest, most

0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 6>existential struggle this country will ever face, Sean, because if

0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 6>communists get control of House seats, then state seats and

0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:29.400
<v Speaker 6>governor's mansions, the American dream that for two hundred and

0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 6>fifty years our heroes blood and died for is gone

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:36.880
<v Speaker 6>and it won't come back because they will never let

0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 6>you get it back. President Trump is the only thing

0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 6>right now standing between the American people and that abyss.

0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Is it a cold war defined by the terms that

0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Winston Churchill spoke about in Missouri when he described the

0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 1>descent of an iron curtain. No, the Cold War is

0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>a civil war stoked by Donald Trump.

0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 2>And when you consider all of.

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:11.920
<v Speaker 1>It together, the relentlessness of the assault, the repaciousness of

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:18.159
<v Speaker 1>these people for power never abates, which means us in

0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:24.320
<v Speaker 1>opposition can never rest. We must never back up, because

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:29.120
<v Speaker 1>if we do, they move forward, and with each step

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:34.680
<v Speaker 1>they intend to come down hard on the freedom of speech,

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 1>on the freedom of religion, on the freedom of assembly,

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:44.000
<v Speaker 1>on the rights that you have to do process. What

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:50.840
<v Speaker 1>we are witnessing is collapse cancer assaulting the Republic. The

0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:56.039
<v Speaker 1>American court system has pushed back, but the legislative branch

0:04:56.120 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 1>has submitted, under Republican control, to Donald Trump's domination, and

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:06.599
<v Speaker 1>in doing so, they have transferred their oath to the

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Constitution into a personal oath to their leader. And the

0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:17.640
<v Speaker 1>checks and balances have collapsed. The Congress has become a

0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 1>pollup bureau, and corruption is everywhere. The President making billions

0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:29.560
<v Speaker 1>of dollars, His children are in the drone business in

0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:34.279
<v Speaker 1>a war where they're getting taxpayer money, as they stand

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:39.279
<v Speaker 1>by as their father is indifferent to the deaths of

0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:45.200
<v Speaker 1>these young Americans. It is an obscenity for the ages,

0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 1>and yet it goes on because there is no check

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:51.000
<v Speaker 1>on any of this.

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:53.400
<v Speaker 2>But there is about to be.

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:59.360
<v Speaker 1>And that's why at the edge of that check, nobody

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:03.960
<v Speaker 1>can give in, nobody can give up, and nobody can surrender,

0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:10.600
<v Speaker 1>become numb to this insanity, to the nefarious intentions of

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 1>these people who are doubling down as their coalition is

0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:22.760
<v Speaker 1>cracking up, splitting up, devouring itself in a circular firing

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:29.159
<v Speaker 1>squad of insanity, delusion, and greed. This is endemic to

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:36.120
<v Speaker 1>all autocratic movements and systems because the fundamental organizing feature

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:41.000
<v Speaker 1>of MAGA is this. It is a line, and everybody

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.320
<v Speaker 1>in that line has a knife in one hand for

0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.280
<v Speaker 1>the back in front of them, and they all have

0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:49.840
<v Speaker 1>eyes in the back of their head for the knife

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:54.120
<v Speaker 1>in the hand behind them, knowing the only way forward

0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:58.800
<v Speaker 1>is through somebody else to get one seat closer on

0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:06.560
<v Speaker 1>Predator Patty to their orange God, this lawful, obese criminal,

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:11.720
<v Speaker 1>an adjudicated rapist who's losing a war to Iran, who

0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 1>knocked down the White House, stole billions of dollars, assaulted

0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:20.400
<v Speaker 1>dozens of women, and the people who voted for him

0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:25.880
