WEBVTT - Which Woman Will Donald Trump Pick for Vice President?

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Maybe they've convinced him to pick a woman because in

0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>the end, after he loses the next election, they figure

0:00:09.280 --> 0:00:12.560
<v Speaker 1>it's harder to hang a woman than someone like Mike Pence.

0:00:12.880 --> 0:00:17.160
<v Speaker 1>It's Thursday, March fourteenth, and there are two hundred and

0:00:17.200 --> 0:00:23.560
<v Speaker 1>thirty seven days remaining until America decides who will be

0:00:23.680 --> 0:00:28.560
<v Speaker 1>the next president of the United States. The next major

0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:32.320
<v Speaker 1>event that's going to happen in the presidential campaign, at

0:00:32.400 --> 0:00:37.000
<v Speaker 1>least on the calendar, is Donald Trump's selection of his

0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:43.920
<v Speaker 1>next vice presidential nominee. Of course, the last one was

0:00:44.000 --> 0:00:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Mike Pence, who for four years put on one of

0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 1>the greatest and most adept sycophantic performances in all of

0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:58.920
<v Speaker 1>human history. It was astonishing. Let's watch Mike Pence sitting

0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:03.200
<v Speaker 1>next to Trump in a eating when Trump, for whatever reason,

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:08.840
<v Speaker 1>puts his glass of water on the floor. Let's watch Pence,

0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 1>the man that Trump ultimately would try to hang for

0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>not overturning an election and making Trump dictator. What's so

0:01:18.520 --> 0:01:25.160
<v Speaker 1>amazing to watch is the servility in Trump's total dominance

0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:33.959
<v Speaker 1>over Pence as a man. It's astonishing psychologically. In the end,

0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:39.679
<v Speaker 1>though they built the gallows, the magi extremists were unable

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:43.959
<v Speaker 1>to find and to hang the vice president, or to

0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>assassinate Mitt Romney or Nancy Pelosi or anyone else in

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:55.800
<v Speaker 1>the United States Congress from that day of sedition January sixth. Now,

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Trump is back at it. He's going around the track again.

0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:04.720
<v Speaker 1>But one thing he'll do differently in twenty twenty four

0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 1>is he's going to run with a woman on his ticket.

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 1>Maybe some of the people worried about Trump's excesses around him,

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:18.840
<v Speaker 1>who whisper in his ear, you know, maybe they've convinced

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:23.400
<v Speaker 1>him to pick a woman because in the end, after

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:27.600
<v Speaker 1>he loses the next election, they figure it's harder to

0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:31.120
<v Speaker 1>hang a woman than someone like Mike Pence. The question

0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.200
<v Speaker 1>about who Donald Trump is going to pick a vice

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 1>president will rage across the headlines and be the source

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 1>of hours of fevered speculation across cable news. There are

0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:50.040
<v Speaker 1>fallen candidates, competitors like Vivek Ramaswami and Tim Scott, both

0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:52.560
<v Speaker 1>of whom will make the list, but neither who has

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 1>any chance for this election. Donald Trump will pick a woman,

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:05.360
<v Speaker 1>and he'll pick a woman because that's the most cynical

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:11.839
<v Speaker 1>choice he can possibly make, and Trump is nothing if

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:18.519
<v Speaker 1>not both cynical and predictable. In fact, the most amazing

0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 1>thing about Donald Trump in this moment in American politics

0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:26.680
<v Speaker 1>is how befuddled so many people in the Democratic Party

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:30.200
<v Speaker 1>who are in charge of beating him seem to be

0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 1>about the most predictable person in a nation of three

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:40.400
<v Speaker 1>hundred and thirty million souls. Like the sun rising in

0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:46.720
<v Speaker 1>the east every morning, Donald Trump will do certain things

0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:54.200
<v Speaker 1>because they're patterns, because they are part of who he is,

0:03:55.720 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>and because Donald Trump wants power. He surveys all of

0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 1>the time, looking around, to the obstacles, to the impediments,

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:10.160
<v Speaker 1>what will hurt him. Have you ever seen Trump move

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:14.760
<v Speaker 1>so quickly as when in Alabama Judge basically made in

0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:22.680
<v Speaker 1>vitro fertilization illegal. Donald Trump is from Queens and he

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>spent his adult life in Manhattan. He has disdain and

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:35.640
<v Speaker 1>contempt for the evangelicals that worship him. He thinks every

0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 1>single one of them is a loon and a nut.

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:46.440
<v Speaker 1>When they pray for him, he mocks them, he laughs

0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:51.120
<v Speaker 1>at them. In fact, those people scare the shit out

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:56.640
<v Speaker 1>of Donald Trump, and he knows that he needs them,

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:03.159
<v Speaker 1>and he also knows that they can defeat him. He

0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:10.000
<v Speaker 1>knows that the dogma of control and authority and subjugation

0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>that holds from people like the religious fanatical Mike Johnson,

0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Speaker of the House, that women should not have access

0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:22.200
<v Speaker 1>to birth control pills, or that women should not have

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:26.359
<v Speaker 1>access to reproductive healthcare, or that women shouldn't have many

0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:30.160
<v Speaker 1>rights at all that they've established over the last fifty

0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 1>years is political poison. Donald Trump knows this. He's a salesman,

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:43.440
<v Speaker 1>he's a marketer, he's a con man. He walks into

0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:47.039
<v Speaker 1>a room, he sticks his finger in the air. He

0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:55.840
<v Speaker 1>understands that he can't run with another white guy. And

0:05:55.920 --> 0:06:00.280
<v Speaker 1>at the same time, Trump, who truly is a racist,

0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 1>will never put a minority mail on the ticket underneath him,

0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:11.839
<v Speaker 1>and particularly not someone like vivk Ramaswami, who is younger,

0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:18.120
<v Speaker 1>who is smarter, who's more cunning and richer, And Tim

0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Scott well, let's just say, underwhelming. Isn't the word you

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>would use to describe his performance during the presidential primary season,

0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 1>but it's a good start. He will pick a woman

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:36.960
<v Speaker 1>because he will view it as concealing his greatest liability,

0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:43.360
<v Speaker 1>which he knows full well are the extremest men that

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:50.000
<v Speaker 1>surround him everywhere. Trump wants power. He wants the chair,

0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:55.440
<v Speaker 1>but he knows he won't get there alone. But at

0:06:55.480 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 1>any rate, let's examine the contestants. His defeated primary opponent,

0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:07.640
<v Speaker 1>the former ambassador to the United Nations, the woman who

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:11.320
<v Speaker 1>kept her hand up when she was asked, even if

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Trump is convicted of all ninety one felonies, are you

0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:20.040
<v Speaker 1>going to continue to support him until the end forevermore?

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Nikki Haley said yes. It's why she remains on the

0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 1>vice presidential list first seed. The rest of the contestants

0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>will sort out later. But there's Christy Nome, the governor

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:42.800
<v Speaker 1>of South Dakota. There's Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the most prolific

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 1>liar in the history of White House Press secretaries. Her

0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:51.640
<v Speaker 1>ascension to the vice presidency would be quite a thing.

0:07:53.440 --> 0:08:00.640
<v Speaker 1>There's at least Stephanic, the snarling fascist with a Harvard degree,

0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:04.480
<v Speaker 1>who ran as a problem solving moderate, only to be

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:08.840
<v Speaker 1>overcome by her own lack of character and the depth

0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:14.320
<v Speaker 1>of her own cynicism into the screeching maga darling of

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Trump's midnight dreams. There's Kelly Anne Conway in the outside lane.

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:26.400
<v Speaker 1>She's more articulate than the rest. She's meaner, more experienced,

0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:30.880
<v Speaker 1>and when it comes to lying, even against TUCKINGB. Sanders,

0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:33.960
<v Speaker 1>she's in a league of her own. And while this

0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:39.319
<v Speaker 1>liar's division is highly competitive, nobody should discount the women

0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:43.840
<v Speaker 1>from the conspiracy division. Marjorie Taylor Green and Carrie Lake

0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:49.240
<v Speaker 1>could carry Lake the conspiracy theorist, an election denier from

0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Arizona wind up on Trump's ticket. Why not? And of

0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 1>course there's the one and only Marjorie Taylor Green, who

0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:01.600
<v Speaker 1>rose to become Kevin McCarthy He's best friend in the Congress.

0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Now MTG, as she's ubiquitously known across the cable news universe,

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:13.240
<v Speaker 1>is a woman who believes in Jewish space lasers and QAnon.

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:19.760
<v Speaker 1>So why not. So there's the field Nikki Haley and

0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Christin Nohm, Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Elis Stephonic, Carrie Lake

0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and Marjorie Taylor Green. And let's throw in America's sweetheart

0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:38.840
<v Speaker 1>from Alabama, Katie Britt for good measure as well. Now,

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:42.760
<v Speaker 1>out of this field will come a person that Trump

0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:49.520
<v Speaker 1>proposes to put one heartbeat away from the presidency. And incredible,

0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:53.800
<v Speaker 1>though it may seem, especially to me, a lot of

0:09:53.840 --> 0:09:58.800
<v Speaker 1>these people make Sarah Palin look like well, Winston Churchill

0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 1>put that aside. Let's examine the first contestant, Corey Leewandowski's

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:11.640
<v Speaker 1>alleged mistress, Christy no who gave Donald Trump one of

0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:16.080
<v Speaker 1>the great gifts of his presidency when she presented to

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:22.680
<v Speaker 1>him a replica of Mount Rushmore, but with Trump included

0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:29.240
<v Speaker 1>on the Mountain of Presidential Greatness right next to Abraham Lincoln.

0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:37.480
<v Speaker 1>True story anyway, the governor of South Dakota, the alleged

0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:43.000
<v Speaker 1>lover of Trump's first campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, repeatedly arrested

0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 1>and charged with assaulting women, is very much in the

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 1>running to be vice president. One of the things you'll

0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:55.960
<v Speaker 1>notice about Christy no is she has a brilliant smile,

0:10:57.200 --> 0:11:07.320
<v Speaker 1>doesn't she. Now, there are many politicians who have gleaming smiles, incandescent,

0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:13.680
<v Speaker 1>brilliant smiles. Look at Gavenuwsom, He's got a great smile,

0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 1>terrific teeth. The difference between every person in American politics

0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:28.559
<v Speaker 1>who has a luminescent smile, and there's a lot of them,

0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:33.080
<v Speaker 1>is that Christy Noam is the only person who's a

0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:39.720
<v Speaker 1>governor of an American state who's recorded an infomercial for

0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:46.360
<v Speaker 1>her dentist interestingly in Texas. Well.

0:11:46.440 --> 0:11:49.520
<v Speaker 2>Hi, I'm Christineaman. I'm the governor of South Dakota and

0:11:49.600 --> 0:11:52.440
<v Speaker 2>had the opportunity to come to Smile Texas to fix

0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.880
<v Speaker 2>my teeth, which has been absolutely amazing, Which.

0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Does raise a question, do we really want to make

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:04.920
<v Speaker 1>somebody the vice president and possibly the president because of

0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:08.959
<v Speaker 1>the elderly Trump who's the governor of a state where

0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:14.520
<v Speaker 1>there's no dentist. It's very strange that she would need

0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:20.200
<v Speaker 1>to go to Texas, and it's even stranger that once

0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:26.720
<v Speaker 1>she was there, she would make the infomercial let's watch

0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:27.319
<v Speaker 1>a bit of it.

0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:31.400
<v Speaker 2>And so several years ago I did a consultation here

0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 2>at Smile Texas and did it by zoom, but could

0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:38.120
<v Speaker 2>never quite find the time, and recently got the chance

0:12:38.160 --> 0:12:41.600
<v Speaker 2>to work with doctor Davis. Doctor Dooley's always been fantastic

0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:44.440
<v Speaker 2>to me too, but the team here was remarkable and

0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:47.360
<v Speaker 2>finally gave me a smile that I can be proud

0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:48.439
<v Speaker 2>of and confident in.

0:12:48.800 --> 0:12:52.439
<v Speaker 1>If you're in South Dakota, your tax dollars are at

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:52.920
<v Speaker 1>work here.

0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I remember I got a phone call from Janelle

0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:58.640
<v Speaker 2>that said, we can actually do this if you're willing

0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 2>to fly in husband and I flew down to Houston,

0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:04.400
<v Speaker 2>got here at two o'clock in the morning and did

0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:05.160
<v Speaker 2>an appointment.

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:13.319
<v Speaker 1>Now this is effective advocacy. If you ask me, if

0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Christinoam is able to make such a convincing case for

0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:20.760
<v Speaker 1>this dental clinic, can you imagine what she could do

0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:26.080
<v Speaker 1>for the MAGA movement on immigration with regard to the

0:13:26.120 --> 0:13:30.200
<v Speaker 1>concentration camps, the massed attentions, the millions of people that

0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 1>will be deported, the arrest of political opponents and prisoners.

0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:39.440
<v Speaker 1>It will be incredible to have somebody with so much

0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:43.839
<v Speaker 1>conviction and an ability to articulate it sitting in the

0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:51.000
<v Speaker 1>VP chair. Christineom one of the finalists, no doubt, to

0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:54.679
<v Speaker 1>be the second most powerful person in the world, a

0:13:54.840 --> 0:14:02.080
<v Speaker 1>heartbeat away from command of America's nuclear arsenal. Well, in

0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:05.120
<v Speaker 1>the months ahead, we'll get to look at all of

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:10.800
<v Speaker 1>the contestants very very closely. But today, on the occasion

0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:15.600
<v Speaker 1>of the first infomercial ever done by a governor of

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:19.440
<v Speaker 1>any American state, we'll put the spotlight on Christy No

0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:23.600
<v Speaker 1>because she deserves it and you should know her better,
