1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: President needs to walk out onto that debate stage, look 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,519 Speaker 1: him in the eye and say you are a disgrace, 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 1: a convicted felon. You lost an election. You are a 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: laughingstock in the eyes of the world's leaders. He needs 5 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,799 Speaker 1: to emasculate him, humiliate him, dannagrade him, laugh at him, 6 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,600 Speaker 1: belittle him. He needs to be ready for a fight. 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,440 Speaker 1: It is June to twentieth, one hundred and thirty eight 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: days remain until the American presidential election. One week from now, 9 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: one of the most momentous debates no hyperbole intended in 10 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: American history, will take place on CNN between Donald Trump 11 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: and President Biden. 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 2: Everything is on the line. 13 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: Now. 14 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 2: There is a story in Axios. 15 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: It documents the deep and growing worry inside the Democratic 16 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: Party about the state of the Biden campaign. 17 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 2: The only person. 18 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: Who has the guts to be quoted by name is 19 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: Howard Wolfson, the former Hillary Clinton and Michael Bloom Concilari, 20 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: who says, if the election were tomorrow, Joe Biden would lose, 21 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 1: and though there is a lot of time to turn 22 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: things around, he sees no signs of any turning. There 23 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: are many many quotes in the story by worry Democrats 24 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: as always, they are nameless, they are faceless, and they 25 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 1: are anonymous. The reason for that, according to Alex Thompson, 26 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: the excellent Axios political reporter, is because of the shoot 27 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: the messenger mentality that surrounds the Biden inner circle. They 28 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 1: don't like hearing bad news. Bringing bad news to the 29 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: Biden team, according to Alex Thompson of Axios, is disloyal. 30 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: Who wants to be labeled disloyal for telling the truth? 31 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: Not many people, as it turns out. So the small 32 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: and cloister Biden team moves forward without doubt, without concern 33 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: that they'll just win. Because now the main point of 34 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: the Axios piece his doubt about the strategy of chief 35 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: strategist Mike donaldin Biden's most important political counselor, Ron Klain, 36 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: the longtime Biden chief of staff, summed up the devotion 37 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: to the strategy this way, in Mike, we trust. I 38 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: agree with Mike donaldin that the structure of the race 39 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: is about a big thing because Trump did a big thing, 40 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: a very bad big thing, when he assaulted American democracy, 41 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: when he sent a mob to overturn the peaceful transition 42 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: of power, when he upended George Washington's great contribution to 43 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: humanity when he had the humility to walk away from power, 44 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: even when he was defeated. Donald Trump tasted power, he 45 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: wanted it, he craved it. And what he has done 46 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: is poison the truth. To the degree that an entire 47 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: political party has inverted reality to suit its own partisan fantasies. 48 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: No greater proof of that is needed than Doug Bergham 49 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: or Tim Scott and their lunacy fantasies. Let's watch under 50 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, We're actually living under a dictatorship today. 51 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 3: They forget about those moments of insurrection by seemingly democratic 52 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 3: supporters that they didn't want to. 53 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 2: Lose Absolutely John they did. Bottom line is simply this. 54 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 3: Those summer riots were the most expensive riots in the 55 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 3: history of America. 56 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: There is a simple truth. The Biden campaign is being 57 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: overwhelmed again by cheap figs. By this on Fox. 58 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: News, President Biden appeared to forget the name of his 59 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 3: own DHS chief. My name is Joe Biden, I'm Joe 60 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 3: Biden's husband. Thanks to all the members of Congress and 61 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 3: Homeleod Security Secretary. I'm not sure going to do all 62 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 3: away and all kindneside a President Biden is in rehoboit's beach. 63 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 3: I'm not sure going to do all away and all 64 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 3: kidness hide Secretary Marcus as well. 65 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: Remember this is the network that paid almost one billion 66 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 1: dollars because it lied over and over and over again 67 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: in a deliberate scheme to confuse the American people for 68 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: money they did not care about poisoning democracy. Each day 69 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: there is more extremism, more malevolence, more nonsense on Fox News. 70 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and his team have no plan to deal 71 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: with any of this, and it's deeply alarming. 72 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: The President has to walk out on. 73 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: That debate stage like Mike Tyson used to walk out 74 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: into the boxing ring. He needs to be on the hunt. 75 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: There will be the hunter and the hunted on that 76 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: debate stage, and Donald Trump needs to be on the 77 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: run from the outset. President needs to walk out onto 78 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: that debate stage, look him in the eye and say, 79 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 1: you are a disgrace, a convicted felon. You lost an 80 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: election but lack the humility and the character to acknowledge it. 81 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: You incited in an insurrection. You are a laughingstock in 82 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: the eyes of the world's leaders. He needs to emasculate 83 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: him humiliate him, denigrate him, laugh. 84 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 2: At him, belittle him. 85 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: He needs to be ready for a fight, and he 86 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: needs to be ready to hold his cool when Donald 87 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: Trump insults his son Hunter. Joe Biden is losing this 88 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: election and the Democratic Party knows it. The convention is 89 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 1: coming soon. Trump's vice presidential pick is coming soon. The 90 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: election is coming soon. Time is running out.

Joe Biden needs 96 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: to stand up for the American way of life, our society, 97 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: our civilization, and it's time to tell some hard truths 98 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: about MAGA and about Trump and about what's on the line. 99 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: It's time for the American people to hear the truth, 100 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: the straight, no holds barred truth about a great danger 101 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: at hand.
