WEBVTT - 8 DEMOCRATIC SENATE QUISLINGS CAVE. EXPEL THEM. AND CHUCK SCHUMER - 11.10.25 0:00:04.795 --> 0:00:23.515 Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. These 0:00:23.755 --> 0:00:36.515 eight are quizzlings, tradeorse, cowards, capitulators, collaborators, fakes, frauds, enablers, betrayers, failures, 0:00:37.195 --> 0:00:44.275 political prostitutes. Last night, eight senators, nominal Democrats, voted to fold, 0:00:45.035 --> 0:00:48.995 without any pressure, without any bribe, without any anything. They 0:00:49.115 --> 0:00:53.275 voted to kick millions of Americans off Obamacare in order 0:00:53.315 --> 0:00:56.155 to reopen and fund the government to reopen it for 0:00:56.195 --> 0:00:57.915 only three months. Mind you, So we have to go 0:00:57.955 --> 0:01:02.635 through this again in exchange, not for magic beans this time, 0:01:02.995 --> 0:01:05.555 but just for the promise of a vote in which 0:01:05.835 --> 0:01:10.715 they might get magic beans, A vote on the healthcare subsidies, 0:01:11.795 --> 0:01:16.755 which they will win if half a dozen Republicans defy Trump, 0:01:18.115 --> 0:01:24.075 a vote on magic beans, which they will lose. Eight 0:01:24.115 --> 0:01:28.635 of them, six Democrats, the independent Angus King of Maine, 0:01:28.675 --> 0:01:33.795 who caucused with Democrats until last night, apparently, and John Fetterman. 0:01:34.555 --> 0:01:37.795 You cannot recall a senator in Pennsylvania and anyway, that 0:01:37.835 --> 0:01:40.475 would not be enough for Fetterman. He should be institutionalized, 0:01:40.795 --> 0:01:45.155 or worse, he should be sold on waivers to Maga. 0:01:45.555 --> 0:01:51.475 His mind is that unsound, f you Fetterman. The other 0:01:51.595 --> 0:01:54.675 traders whose careers in the Senate, in the Democratic Party, 0:01:54.875 --> 0:01:58.275 in public life must now end are Senator Dick Durbin 0:01:58.355 --> 0:02:02.635 of Illinois. Senator Limp Dick Durbin never someone to sit 0:02:02.715 --> 0:02:05.915 around and fight when an opera tunity would arise to 0:02:06.035 --> 0:02:10.235 give in. Senator Maggie Hassen of New Hampshire, who, in 0:02:10.355 --> 0:02:13.555 betraying America, had the nerve to say she was doing 0:02:13.595 --> 0:02:16.835 so to quote, make sure the government is functioning and 0:02:16.955 --> 0:02:20.555 continue the fight to a realistic platform to get the 0:02:20.635 --> 0:02:24.395 premium tax cuts done. If that is not successful, then 0:02:24.515 --> 0:02:28.235 shame on the Republican Party and shame on Donald Trump. No, 0:02:28.635 --> 0:02:33.595 shame on you, miss Hassen, you useless clown. Republicans do 0:02:33.675 --> 0:02:38.715 not feel shame. Trump has no human emotions, You have 0:02:38.835 --> 0:02:42.675 no intelligence. You have been played by shameless people who 0:02:42.795 --> 0:02:48.635 you think will feel shame. Get the f out. Senator 0:02:48.715 --> 0:02:51.315 Jean Shaheen of New Hampshire, who for most of us, 0:02:51.595 --> 0:02:54.675 for the first time, has made us realize that she 0:02:54.795 --> 0:02:57.835 and Maggie Hassen are not the same person. They might 0:02:57.875 --> 0:03:00.915 as well be. What do you say to your colleagues 0:03:00.955 --> 0:03:03.595 who say this isn't a fight, this is a capitulation. 0:03:03.915 --> 0:03:06.955 She was asked last night. She answers, we have a 0:03:07.035 --> 0:03:12.675 guaranteed vote by a guaranteed date, which you imbecile, you 0:03:12.795 --> 0:03:17.075 are certain to lose. You traded a stalemate where the 0:03:17.155 --> 0:03:21.715 other side was beginning to crack for a total defeat. 0:03:22.435 --> 0:03:29.675 Get the f out of our party, Senator Catherine Cortes Mastow, 0:03:30.755 --> 0:03:34.315 it's our responsibility to work not only here amongst ourselves, 0:03:34.475 --> 0:03:38.315 but across the aisle, to solve these problems for the Americans, 0:03:38.475 --> 0:03:42.755 make their lives a little bit easier. I gather, Senator 0:03:42.795 --> 0:03:46.635 Cortez Mastow, You've never actually been to the Senate or 0:03:46.675 --> 0:03:50.435 to Washington, where there is no isle. There's just a 0:03:50.555 --> 0:03:55.395 moat full of swamp creatures that Trump owns, and there 0:03:55.435 --> 0:03:59.155 is no problem solving to be done with the other side. 0:03:59.675 --> 0:04:02.995 The other side is just a series of whores for Trump, 0:04:03.755 --> 0:04:09.795 whores for Trump with which you are now attached. Senator 0:04:09.875 --> 0:04:13.915 Jackie Rosen of Nevada quote, Senate Republicans need to work 0:04:13.955 --> 0:04:17.555 with us in a bipartisan way before the next deadline. 0:04:17.675 --> 0:04:18.115 Un quote. 0:04:18.235 --> 0:04:21.835 I hate to break this to you, Senator Jackie, but 0:04:21.955 --> 0:04:26.675 they won't. You have deluded yourself, You have sold your 0:04:26.675 --> 0:04:31.555 constituents out your only honorable course is to resign your 0:04:31.635 --> 0:04:41.035 office today. And lastly, there is Senator Tim Kine of Virginia, 0:04:41.115 --> 0:04:44.995 who has been essentially a zombie since he went through 0:04:45.035 --> 0:04:50.115 an entire presidential campaign without ever really noticing once that 0:04:50.235 --> 0:04:57.475 he was the vice presidential nominee. Useless, at least he's consistent. 0:05:00.515 --> 0:05:03.555 Counting Fetterman, there are seven nominal Democrats there, and they 0:05:03.595 --> 0:05:06.275 need to be expelled from the party. And those that 0:05:06.355 --> 0:05:08.795 mysticularly think they have a chance of retaining their seats 0:05:08.995 --> 0:05:12.755 must be primaried and defeated must be The seven and 0:05:12.835 --> 0:05:16.675 Angus King are dead to us. They are not progressives, 0:05:16.675 --> 0:05:19.475 they are not pragmatists. They are not even moderates. They 0:05:19.515 --> 0:05:25.475 are simply gold plated, hot and cold running fools. Their 0:05:25.555 --> 0:05:33.515 careers must be ended now. Durban, Kane, Fetterman, shen Cortes, Mascow, Hassen, Rosen, 0:05:33.555 --> 0:05:38.835 and King now done forgotten. Let us hear their names 0:05:38.995 --> 0:05:45.595 no more. And as to the Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, 0:05:47.155 --> 0:05:52.675 who voted against this bill the rare occasion where he 0:05:52.795 --> 0:05:57.915 voted correctly, this bill will now sail through the House 0:05:58.075 --> 0:06:00.715 and give Trump what he wants and gut Obama Care 0:06:01.435 --> 0:06:03.475 and then we get to do this all over again 0:06:03.515 --> 0:06:06.315 in February, when they're Republicans will have seen only Democratic 0:06:06.355 --> 0:06:10.955 weakness and how they can plow through these eight ghosts 0:06:12.115 --> 0:06:16.395 in the Democratic Senate Caucus. As to Chuck Schumer, minority leader, 0:06:16.435 --> 0:06:21.395 who could not keep even half of these bereft, disingenuous, untrustworthy, 0:06:21.755 --> 0:06:27.875 uselessfeckless Democratic Senate assholes in line, Chuck Schumer's time in 0:06:27.955 --> 0:06:30.995 this role must come to an end. One of the 0:06:31.035 --> 0:06:35.235 responsibilities of Senate leadership is to make wandering members of 0:06:35.275 --> 0:06:40.035 your own party realize that it doesn't really matter where 0:06:40.035 --> 0:06:43.955 their principles might sit or what they think they're going 0:06:43.995 --> 0:06:46.795 to do with their careers, but they must realize at 0:06:46.835 --> 0:06:49.795 all times that, no matter how good and just you 0:06:49.955 --> 0:06:53.995 may be, they must know that if they go to 0:06:54.195 --> 0:06:56.515 talk to the enemy in the middle of a war 0:06:56.835 --> 0:06:59.835 and cut a deal with the enemy, they are likely 0:06:59.915 --> 0:07:04.515 to be metaphorically shot in the back by you, then 0:07:04.675 --> 0:07:14.315 and already leader. Which did not happen, Chuck Schumer, You 0:07:14.395 --> 0:07:17.955 presided as your party, got a promise of a vote 0:07:17.995 --> 0:07:23.995 on extending the Obamacare subsidies, a promise of a vote, 0:07:24.555 --> 0:07:30.995 a promise for a vote, which you will lose. Getting 0:07:30.995 --> 0:07:34.395 a promise from a Republican is simply exactly the same 0:07:34.435 --> 0:07:38.835 thing as not getting a promise from a Republican. And 0:07:38.875 --> 0:07:42.795 now it is also the same thing as getting a 0:07:42.835 --> 0:07:48.635 promise from Durban, Kane, Feederman, Shaheen, Cortes, Mascow, Hassen, rosenand King, 0:07:49.355 --> 0:08:12.395 and to hell with each of them. As if this 0:08:12.435 --> 0:08:15.315 could be more infuriating than it already is. There is 0:08:15.355 --> 0:08:18.955 also this fact. It is more evident now than it 0:08:19.035 --> 0:08:22.435 has been at any point in the past, that Trump's 0:08:22.595 --> 0:08:27.795 mind is gone. He is at his most vulnerable position. 0:08:30.555 --> 0:08:34.115 His mental health now down to about a zero on 0:08:34.155 --> 0:08:38.915 a scale of zero to anything. Is so bad even 0:08:39.595 --> 0:08:46.435 the Washington effing Post has noticed. It is so bad. 0:08:47.115 --> 0:08:54.675 The Washington Post even put it on its front page. 0:08:54.875 --> 0:08:58.275 He's hyping weight loss drugs in the Oval office and 0:08:58.315 --> 0:09:00.315 how he and he alone can bring down their price. 0:09:00.475 --> 0:09:04.035 And a weight loss patient there to extol weight loss 0:09:04.115 --> 0:09:07.115 drugs and say how safe they are and to praise 0:09:07.195 --> 0:09:13.715 Trump's wonderfulness. Collapses, folds, drops slow motion like a deflating 0:09:13.755 --> 0:09:18.835 inflatable tube. Man that he used car sales lot. Weight 0:09:18.875 --> 0:09:22.915 loss patient fates at weight loss meeting It's like the 0:09:22.955 --> 0:09:25.755 bit in the Jack Nicholson pictured Chinatown, where the corner 0:09:25.795 --> 0:09:27.235 says to Nicholson. 0:09:27.155 --> 0:09:33.195 Mettle of a drought. The water commissioner drowns only an la. Trump, 0:09:33.675 --> 0:09:37.955 whose mind is gone, gets up, looks at the guy 0:09:38.035 --> 0:09:43.555 on the floor, looks away, stares forward, totally pissed off. 0:09:43.835 --> 0:09:48.195 How dare he interrupt my latest attempt to rip off America? 0:09:48.875 --> 0:09:52.555 Photos taken while they carry the poor deflated tube man 0:09:52.635 --> 0:09:57.915 out of the Oval meeting resumes. Trump sits down. He does, not, however, 0:09:58.035 --> 0:10:04.835 fully fall asleep this time, Trump, whose mind is Gone, 0:10:05.195 --> 0:10:09.115 had already fallen a sleep quote. A closer look at 0:10:09.115 --> 0:10:11.835 Trump's apparent struggles to fight off sleep in the Oval 0:10:11.875 --> 0:10:16.635 office read the Washington Post headline. A Washington Post analysis 0:10:16.635 --> 0:10:20.235 of multiple video feeds found that the president spent nearly 0:10:20.315 --> 0:10:25.235 twenty minutes apparently battling to keep his eyes open. Eight 0:10:25.315 --> 0:10:28.915 hundred and fifteen words followed that headline and four pictures, 0:10:29.435 --> 0:10:34.835 one of Trump whose mind is gone with one eye closed, 0:10:35.355 --> 0:10:38.915 one with one eye closed and two fingers rubbing that eye, 0:10:39.195 --> 0:10:41.835 one with both eyes closed, and one where you can 0:10:41.875 --> 0:10:47.755 almost see the snoring quote. The president displayed a constellation 0:10:47.875 --> 0:10:50.435 of movements familiar to anyone who was attempted to stay 0:10:50.435 --> 0:10:53.555 awake during a work meeting. He closed his eyes, he 0:10:53.635 --> 0:10:56.675 put his hand to his temple, He slouched in his chair. 0:10:58.675 --> 0:11:05.115 The Washington Post The Broken Fascist, Quizzling Bezos. Washington Post 0:11:05.755 --> 0:11:10.275 even writes that after Gordon the weight loss guy exited 0:11:10.355 --> 0:11:15.235 stage left, that the Trump stroking quote resumed about an 0:11:15.235 --> 0:11:19.755 hour later, with Trump noticeably perkier, but still caught on 0:11:19.835 --> 0:11:25.275 camera at moments with his eyes closed. The article is amazing. 0:11:25.875 --> 0:11:28.635 What's also amazing is that writers Dan Diamond and Jam 0:11:28.675 --> 0:11:32.035 Readers still work for The Washington Post. It's amazing that 0:11:32.075 --> 0:11:36.275 they are still unindicted by Trump's corrupt, morally bankrupt Department 0:11:36.315 --> 0:11:42.315 of Justice. Maybe that's because Trump, whose mind is gone, 0:11:43.155 --> 0:11:46.515 forgot to tell his Department of Justice to indict the writers. 0:11:48.755 --> 0:11:52.795 Look, don't don't. Don't get me wrong, Nodding off in 0:11:52.875 --> 0:11:57.155 a meeting is hardly conclusive, self contained proof that your 0:11:57.235 --> 0:12:01.875 mind is gone. There is a reasonable chance that you 0:12:03.075 --> 0:12:09.475 will nod off during this podcast, and you're fine. But 0:12:09.635 --> 0:12:13.555 Trump's quick trip to Sleepy Town, his quick role as 0:12:13.635 --> 0:12:17.075 the nod father, was just the symbolic part of all this. 0:12:17.155 --> 0:12:21.195 Because Trump's mind is gone, and sudden sleep, bordering on 0:12:21.235 --> 0:12:25.435 a kind of colloquial narcolepsy is often a component to 0:12:25.555 --> 0:12:29.715 dementia of all kinds, just as is a cognitive test 0:12:29.755 --> 0:12:32.355 in April and then the same test exactly six months later, 0:12:32.395 --> 0:12:38.995 accompanied by an MRI. Just as is increasingly erratic behavior 0:12:39.115 --> 0:12:41.435 over a short period of time. And I know it's 0:12:41.475 --> 0:12:45.435 amazing to look at crazy Trump and use the phrase 0:12:45.955 --> 0:12:52.195 increasingly erratic. He's been increasingly erratic since December nineteen eighty three. 0:12:53.075 --> 0:12:55.955 I can only speak to December nineteen eighty three, to 0:12:56.035 --> 0:12:58.955 that date, nearly forty two years ago, because that's when 0:12:58.955 --> 0:13:02.875 I first met him. It probably started long before then. 0:13:03.235 --> 0:13:08.795 But he is his his mind is gone, and it's 0:13:08.835 --> 0:13:13.355 accelerating again. Even if the snooze was just a snooze 0:13:13.755 --> 0:13:17.035 and the non human response to the guy there to 0:13:17.075 --> 0:13:20.835 tell you how safe the drugs are passing out in 0:13:20.875 --> 0:13:23.715 front of the media, even if the response to that 0:13:23.835 --> 0:13:28.795 is just part of Trump's evil. Let's step back from 0:13:28.835 --> 0:13:31.595 the nuts and bolts of say the government shut down, 0:13:31.635 --> 0:13:34.635 to try to process how it was perceived by Trump, 0:13:34.635 --> 0:13:39.155 whose mind is gone. He thought it would be a 0:13:39.275 --> 0:13:44.355 good look to cut off food stamps, so lines at 0:13:44.475 --> 0:13:49.475 soup kitchens outdoors would get longer just as it was 0:13:49.515 --> 0:13:53.955 getting cold. He thought the correct political move as the 0:13:54.035 --> 0:14:00.635 holidays approached was government sponsored starvation. He believed that the 0:14:00.675 --> 0:14:05.475 country would praise him for gradually also shutting down all 0:14:05.555 --> 0:14:11.715 air travel, including all air travel for his supporters, first 0:14:11.755 --> 0:14:16.155 for Thanksgiving and then for Christmas and New Year's. Marjorie 0:14:16.235 --> 0:14:20.475 Taylor Green got on a train for Georgia. She was 0:14:20.515 --> 0:14:23.475 having such trouble getting on a plane over the weekend. 0:14:24.315 --> 0:14:30.355 Marjorie Taylor Green advised people to take the train. Trump 0:14:30.715 --> 0:14:36.155 thought these were good political moves. He thought he could 0:14:36.195 --> 0:14:39.155 even get America to blame the Democrats for this, even 0:14:39.235 --> 0:14:41.795 though he runs the White House, he runs the Senate, 0:14:41.835 --> 0:14:43.875 he runs the House, and he runs the Supreme Court. 0:14:43.995 --> 0:14:46.875 And of course, since he only watches television that feeds 0:14:46.955 --> 0:14:51.515 back his propaganda to him, he thinks he's right because 0:14:51.555 --> 0:14:55.675 his mind is gone again. I am reminded of a 0:14:55.715 --> 0:15:01.635 movie scene Anthony Perkins as the troubled baseball player Jim 0:15:01.795 --> 0:15:06.075 pearsall in fear strikes out. They wanted him to change 0:15:06.075 --> 0:15:08.275 from the outfield to shortstop, and he didn't want to 0:15:08.275 --> 0:15:10.875 play shortstop, and basically he had a breakdown over it. 0:15:11.635 --> 0:15:16.755 One day Piersaul Perkins as Pearsall is suddenly chipper and happy, 0:15:16.755 --> 0:15:19.195 and his wife says, Jim, what happened, and he merrily 0:15:19.275 --> 0:15:22.035 explains that he doesn't have to play shortstop anymore because 0:15:22.875 --> 0:15:28.515 he's hidden his shortstops glove, and she looks at him 0:15:28.955 --> 0:15:32.755 like she is saying to him herself. He doesn't realize 0:15:32.795 --> 0:15:36.315 there's more than one shortstops glove in the world, does he. 0:15:37.235 --> 0:15:42.115 His mind is gone Trump is Jim Pearsall. When it 0:15:42.155 --> 0:15:45.155 comes to the media, he doesn't see it. That means 0:15:45.155 --> 0:15:49.155 nobody said it, kind of a Mike Johnson way of 0:15:49.235 --> 0:15:49.995 looking at life. 0:15:52.395 --> 0:15:54.155 His mind is gone. 0:15:55.235 --> 0:15:58.355 Every week now he says something about lowering food prices 0:15:58.395 --> 0:16:01.275 by seven hundred percent or lowering energy prices by a 0:16:01.315 --> 0:16:06.355 billion percent, and nobody says, you know, uh, sir, you 0:16:06.395 --> 0:16:09.595 can raise stuff by more than one hundred percent, but 0:16:10.195 --> 0:16:13.715 you can't lower anything by more than one hundred percent. 0:16:13.755 --> 0:16:18.835 It's not mathematically possible. So he keeps saying it because 0:16:18.875 --> 0:16:23.755 his mind is gone. Every week he lets his crazy 0:16:23.795 --> 0:16:28.715 Renfield Steven Miller spend yet crazier and more dangerous conspiracy theories. 0:16:28.835 --> 0:16:31.875 The newest one yesterday was about Obama and Comer and Clapper. 0:16:32.155 --> 0:16:35.075 I think he's got Jimmy Hoffe in this one, and 0:16:35.115 --> 0:16:39.435 maybe the people who killed Julius Caesar and Doge payments 0:16:39.755 --> 0:16:44.435 or something. Because Trump's mind is gone and Miller's mind 0:16:44.435 --> 0:16:49.315 has been gone for decades now, Trump has decided to 0:16:49.355 --> 0:16:53.035 defend his disastrous tariffs by promising a two thousand dollars 0:16:53.035 --> 0:16:56.275 dividend to everyone in the country except the rich. And 0:16:56.315 --> 0:17:01.155 that's something around six hundred billion dollars right now during 0:17:01.155 --> 0:17:05.635 a shutdown. So the Treasury Secretary, you, who literally cannot 0:17:05.715 --> 0:17:09.915 keep his head straight up on his shoulders, races to 0:17:10.035 --> 0:17:13.115 the Nearest Sunday Show to explain that the two thousand 0:17:13.155 --> 0:17:16.715 dollars dividend might just be the money we met along 0:17:16.755 --> 0:17:20.835 the way. Quote tax decreases, no tax on tips, no 0:17:20.915 --> 0:17:24.235 tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, deductibility of 0:17:24.275 --> 0:17:29.715 older loans, says Scott Bessen unquote, here's your two thousand dollars. 0:17:29.915 --> 0:17:33.075 Oh wait, no, there is no two thousand dollars. You 0:17:33.155 --> 0:17:39.475 already got your two thousand dollars. So Trump, whose mind 0:17:39.555 --> 0:17:43.315 is gone, also suggested that's how to change the Affordable 0:17:43.395 --> 0:17:48.035 Care Act simply send people money for healthcare from the government. 0:17:49.355 --> 0:17:52.275 I'm not sure what planned Trump has because his mind 0:17:52.355 --> 0:17:55.315 is gone, but it sounds like you just write Trump 0:17:55.315 --> 0:17:58.555 a letter and tell him how much you need. Now, 0:17:58.635 --> 0:18:01.555 be honest, don't pad it. Let's all play fair and 0:18:01.595 --> 0:18:04.475 this will work out fine. How much do you need 0:18:04.515 --> 0:18:08.875 for healthcare? Right Donald Trump, Washington, DC, and he'll send 0:18:08.915 --> 0:18:13.915 it to you. I don't know how to put this exactly. 0:18:16.155 --> 0:18:20.675 Trump's mind is gone, and he spent yesterday gushing about 0:18:20.755 --> 0:18:25.555 a flyover when two thousand flights for you the little 0:18:25.555 --> 0:18:30.195 people were canceled, and gushing about gold drapes at his 0:18:30.355 --> 0:18:33.435 new ballroom at the White House, gold drapes at the 0:18:33.475 --> 0:18:36.515 executives at the Rotary Club of Skinny Atlas, New York 0:18:36.555 --> 0:18:38.715 would look at and say, are you crazy? We have 0:18:38.835 --> 0:18:44.315 class here. But again, it may be easiest to understand 0:18:44.395 --> 0:18:47.315 all this if we underscore the more symbolic stuff, like 0:18:47.595 --> 0:18:52.275 his Thursday nap before and after Gordon the Ozembic victim fainted, 0:18:53.115 --> 0:18:56.675 the nerve of him to upstage El Presidente like that, 0:18:57.915 --> 0:19:00.395 or like what happened yesterday went at the Washington Commander's 0:19:00.475 --> 0:19:04.235 NFL game, the team owner Josh I'm not Daniel Snyder. 0:19:04.275 --> 0:19:08.355 Harris reportedly did discuss naming his new stadium after Trump 0:19:08.635 --> 0:19:14.115 and discussed it with Trump. Most impressively, Harris supposedly kept 0:19:14.155 --> 0:19:17.675 a straight face as he did this ESPN. It was 0:19:17.715 --> 0:19:21.275 a first reported Trump was making the hint demand threat 0:19:21.995 --> 0:19:26.795 full expression of his narcissism. He wanted the stadium named 0:19:26.835 --> 0:19:30.435 after him because his mind is gone. His version of 0:19:30.515 --> 0:19:32.995 the North Korean news anchor that would be Caroli and 0:19:33.115 --> 0:19:37.035 Levitt immediately announced this would be wonderful because Trump enabled 0:19:37.035 --> 0:19:39.875 the building of the stadium, which is absolute nonsense. It 0:19:39.915 --> 0:19:43.595 all happened during the Biden administration. On the other hand, 0:19:44.835 --> 0:19:50.395 the possibilities for new names for this stadium have inspired 0:19:50.395 --> 0:19:54.875 some of the most searing anti Trump commentary of our times. 0:19:54.875 --> 0:19:58.595 Several wags noted that for years in Miami we already 0:19:58.635 --> 0:20:04.595 had the Orange Bowl. There were many variations of Trump 0:20:04.835 --> 0:20:09.595 is in the Epstein Files Stadium, but the winner came 0:20:09.675 --> 0:20:13.955 from an actual football guy, former Ravens and Eagles Super 0:20:13.955 --> 0:20:20.315 Bowl winning receiver Tory Smith, who wrote, simply impeached field 0:20:20.915 --> 0:20:26.435 at Insurrection Stadium, whereas I added, it could be colloquially 0:20:26.515 --> 0:20:37.675 known as the Big House, the Big House for those 0:20:37.715 --> 0:20:41.115 of you untainted by college football. That's what they call 0:20:41.115 --> 0:20:45.315 the football stadium at the University of Michigan. There is 0:20:45.395 --> 0:20:48.515 actually in this episode more actual sports to mention. Give 0:20:48.555 --> 0:20:51.795 me a moment, though, first, let me circle back to 0:20:51.995 --> 0:20:54.635 the disaster in the Senate last night and the need 0:20:54.915 --> 0:21:00.355 to excommunicate the Quizzlings led by Dick Durbin and our 0:21:00.715 --> 0:21:08.075 visiting senator from Cannimatet Territory, John Vetterman. They are cowards, 0:21:08.235 --> 0:21:12.155 they are failures. They have snatched defeat from the jaws 0:21:12.195 --> 0:21:16.435 of victory. Moreover, it is the exact opposite of what 0:21:16.515 --> 0:21:19.715 the last two weeks has shown us. Stand up to Trump. 0:21:20.115 --> 0:21:24.035 He is still terrified of anybody who fights back. Run 0:21:24.075 --> 0:21:26.355 against Trump on what he is doing to the economic 0:21:26.435 --> 0:21:29.675 lives of your constituents, and run against Trump on what 0:21:29.715 --> 0:21:33.115 he is doing to the civil rights lives of your constituents. 0:21:34.395 --> 0:21:38.395 The New York Times revealed the seven percent solution in 0:21:38.435 --> 0:21:41.595 the Jersey and Virginia governor's elections. Why were they blowouts? 0:21:41.675 --> 0:21:45.195 Quote the two Democrats won so decisively because they also 0:21:45.235 --> 0:21:48.715 flipped a crucial sliver of voters who said they supported 0:21:48.715 --> 0:21:52.235 mister Trump. In twenty twenty four, Miss Chryl and Ms. 0:21:52.275 --> 0:21:57.995 Svanberger both won seven percent of mister Trump's supporters. According 0:21:57.995 --> 0:22:03.395 to the exit polls, seven percent of Trump's supporters. Do 0:22:03.435 --> 0:22:04.955 you want to do the math on that? In a 0:22:05.075 --> 0:22:08.555 national race, what seven percent of Trump's supporters would do? 0:22:09.875 --> 0:22:15.235 That might be a shutout in the electoral college. The 0:22:15.275 --> 0:22:18.115 exit polls to resume the Times report in New Jersey 0:22:18.155 --> 0:22:20.915 found that Miss Cheryl won a whopping eighteen percent of 0:22:20.955 --> 0:22:24.195 mister Trump's Hispanic support in the state. No figures were 0:22:24.195 --> 0:22:29.315 reported for Virginia, where the Hispanic vote is smaller. Run 0:22:29.395 --> 0:22:34.635 against Trump. Do not make deals with Republicans in the Senate, 0:22:36.915 --> 0:22:39.355 and it's not just big picture like the governor's races. 0:22:39.395 --> 0:22:43.035 The magas sheriff in Bucks County in Pennsylvania is gone. 0:22:43.155 --> 0:22:47.515 Fred Harron landslided by the Democrat Danny Seisler, who ran 0:22:47.555 --> 0:22:50.915 against Harron's collaboration with Trump's ICE. From the Bucks County 0:22:50.915 --> 0:22:54.035 Courier Times quote, Seisler's victory was driven in part by 0:22:54.115 --> 0:22:57.675 backlash to Heron's decision to partner county deputies with ICE. 0:22:59.075 --> 0:23:02.235 The partnership, which a Bucks County judge upheld last month, 0:23:02.435 --> 0:23:05.875 would have allowed sheriff's deputies to act as Ice agents. 0:23:06.435 --> 0:23:10.035 Seisler pledged to end the program if elected. Seisler spoke 0:23:10.075 --> 0:23:13.275 at anti Trump protests across the county, urging voters to 0:23:13.275 --> 0:23:16.475 show their anger at the president by voting out Republicans 0:23:16.555 --> 0:23:22.835 in Bucks County. And guess what they did run against Trump? 0:23:24.115 --> 0:23:26.355 Just try to do two things at the same time. 0:23:26.715 --> 0:23:31.795 Economy and Trump is death. I mean a Trump is 0:23:31.835 --> 0:23:35.675 who just left the dictatorship is now threatening judges with 0:23:35.795 --> 0:23:40.835 a vague, violent kind of motif. This guy spoke to 0:23:40.875 --> 0:23:45.275 a Federalist Society conference of lawyers. A judge disagrees with Trump, 0:23:45.435 --> 0:23:50.035 impeach him or her. Quote, what's going to force the 0:23:50.075 --> 0:23:54.235 Supreme Court to do something is fundamentally political pressure, says 0:23:54.235 --> 0:23:57.595 this guy Myzell. It's going to be when Congress starts 0:23:57.595 --> 0:24:01.115 impeaching judges and saying you are now encroaching into our territory. 0:24:02.195 --> 0:24:05.275 Now here's the vague threat. Quoting myzel again, what do 0:24:05.315 --> 0:24:07.395 I think Trump should do? He should stand up and 0:24:07.435 --> 0:24:10.715 he's already done this and say judges, I know how 0:24:10.795 --> 0:24:16.355 to deal with stray cats. Who knows exactly what that means, 0:24:16.355 --> 0:24:19.955 But it doesn't to me sound like catch them and 0:24:19.995 --> 0:24:26.995 rehabilitate them through reward based training. Punchline, This goober Mizelle 0:24:27.155 --> 0:24:33.195 threatening to treat judges like stray cats. Cornell law naturally 0:24:34.155 --> 0:24:40.195 that Mizelle is married to a judge. I'm sorry, dear, 0:24:40.195 --> 0:24:42.395 I didn't mean you. I didn't mean you were a 0:24:42.435 --> 0:24:52.355 stray cat. Run against Trump or against Vance? Do they 0:24:52.435 --> 0:24:54.395 really think Vance is? 0:24:54.555 --> 0:24:54.675 You? 0:24:54.675 --> 0:24:58.355 Know it? Do trump ists and MAGA look at JV 0:24:58.555 --> 0:25:03.035 and see a leader, a macho figure of some kind. 0:25:03.515 --> 0:25:07.515 Do they not see an eye wearing guy who in 0:25:07.555 --> 0:25:11.355 the places where Trump uses his TMU Hitler act, Vance 0:25:11.395 --> 0:25:17.475 simply pinches Politico polling on favorites for twenty twenty eight. 0:25:17.515 --> 0:25:20.795 In the nominations, Vance is the Republican favorite. Now the 0:25:20.835 --> 0:25:25.275 reality check here is it's Republicans, so there is no reality. 0:25:26.275 --> 0:25:29.075 Vance polls thirty five percent, and second at twenty eight 0:25:29.075 --> 0:25:30.755 percent is Trump. 0:25:32.035 --> 0:25:32.275 Yes. 0:25:33.795 --> 0:25:36.315 Six out of ten of the police are also in 0:25:36.355 --> 0:25:38.915 favor of amending the constitution to allow a third term. 0:25:38.995 --> 0:25:44.915 Even though thirteen states can in effect veto any constitutional amendment, 0:25:44.915 --> 0:25:46.555 even if you could get one up and running in 0:25:46.595 --> 0:25:49.955 the next three years, and there are sixteen no question 0:25:50.115 --> 0:25:54.915 unshakable permanent blue states, that number is probably actually nineteen, 0:25:55.315 --> 0:25:57.475 and by next year it'll be in the low to 0:25:57.555 --> 0:26:07.155 mid twenties. Run against Trump advance to quote another line 0:26:07.195 --> 0:26:09.755 written by my late friend Bill Goldman that has been 0:26:09.795 --> 0:26:13.595 transformed into history, even though we don't think Deep Throat 0:26:13.675 --> 0:26:16.395 actually said it in real life, only in the movie 0:26:16.475 --> 0:26:20.595 All the President's Men. The truth is these are not 0:26:20.915 --> 0:26:27.635 very bright guys. Trump's appeal of the court order denying 0:26:27.715 --> 0:26:30.595 him the chance to starve Americans by not paying snap 0:26:30.635 --> 0:26:36.715 benefits literally concluded. Quote. This is in the document filed 0:26:36.755 --> 0:26:40.875 with the courts. Quote just think of JD. 0:26:41.075 --> 0:26:41.355 Vance. 0:26:42.035 --> 0:26:45.275 There is no lawful basis for an order that directs 0:26:45.395 --> 0:26:52.595 USDA to somehow find four billion dollars in the metaphorical 0:26:52.875 --> 0:26:54.395 couch cushions. 0:26:55.715 --> 0:27:16.435 Oh this is Sports Senate. Wait check that not anymore. 0:27:17.195 --> 0:27:21.955 This is countdown with Keith Alberman. 0:27:22.915 --> 0:27:23.995 Couch cushions. 0:27:24.035 --> 0:27:26.395 Did you say? Okay? 0:27:26.395 --> 0:27:30.515 Two things. The marriage between legalized sports gambling and the 0:27:30.555 --> 0:27:36.835 actual sports leagues is now claiming victims. Those two suspended 0:27:36.875 --> 0:27:41.235 Cleveland pitchers, Emmanuel Classe and Luis Ortiz, who didn't see 0:27:41.275 --> 0:27:46.915 the playoffs because well, there was some problem with legal gambling. 0:27:47.795 --> 0:27:51.715 They've now been charged or tees has been arrested. The 0:27:51.795 --> 0:27:55.115 allegation is they took a couple thousand each to throw 0:27:55.475 --> 0:28:01.115 specific pitches or pitches at specific speeds, so gamblers could 0:28:01.195 --> 0:28:04.755 bet on how fast the pitch was or if it 0:28:04.835 --> 0:28:08.595 was a ball or a strike. Micro betting, not on 0:28:08.635 --> 0:28:10.075 a game, not on a run, not. 0:28:09.995 --> 0:28:10.475 On a hit. 0:28:10.875 --> 0:28:13.795 Just no harm, right, just a couple of pitches. First 0:28:13.795 --> 0:28:18.715 pitch of the inning is a ball, I win? Who loses? Allegedly, 0:28:18.755 --> 0:28:24.155 the gamblers, all with legal bets, won something approaching a 0:28:24.195 --> 0:28:28.475 total of half a million dollars. Class A and Ortiz 0:28:28.555 --> 0:28:33.075 deny everything. Both are not pitching at the moment and 0:28:33.955 --> 0:28:37.315 probably won't for at least a while, and they face, oh, 0:28:37.355 --> 0:28:42.195 by the way, sixty five years in jail. Fortunately, though, 0:28:42.755 --> 0:28:46.035 we can all relax because these are the only two 0:28:46.155 --> 0:28:51.395 pitchers who ever even thought of doing anything like this. No, 0:28:51.755 --> 0:28:58.955 of course, it couldn't be wide spread. No, no, definitely, 0:28:58.995 --> 0:29:02.515 not just these two instances, just these two guys and 0:29:02.555 --> 0:29:09.035 their friends ever, anybody else, nobody else ever ever at 0:29:09.075 --> 0:29:17.875 all couch cushions. And on a lighter note, if you 0:29:17.995 --> 0:29:21.875 saw it online, no, the supposed one of one super 0:29:21.995 --> 0:29:25.555 rare baseball card of show hey Otani is a fake. 0:29:26.795 --> 0:29:31.275 It is clearly a photoshopped version of a tops now card, 0:29:31.755 --> 0:29:33.715 a kind of baseball card that has the picture of 0:29:33.755 --> 0:29:36.595 a player along with a game used artifact, like part 0:29:36.595 --> 0:29:38.955 of a baseball that's been cut up, or a bat 0:29:39.075 --> 0:29:41.755 or a bass or in this case, part of show 0:29:41.795 --> 0:29:43.955 Hey o'tonani is jockstrap. 0:29:45.995 --> 0:29:48.875 That's the claim. That's the claim. 0:29:48.915 --> 0:29:53.755 It's a baseball card with show Hey Otani's jockstrap one 0:29:53.755 --> 0:29:57.835 of one. It's not true. Nobody has made a game 0:29:57.995 --> 0:30:05.195
