Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Schmid Storm. You have questions,
Speaker 1: I have answers. Let's get to it. The first question
Speaker 1: is a great one, and it's one that the national
Speaker 1: media frankly doesn't understand, and it is what is the
Speaker 1: impact of Robert Kennedy's endorsement for Donald Trump?
Speaker 2: Will it help him win? Now?
Speaker 1: A lot of the media looks at a Kennedy endorsement
Speaker 1: and they add his percentage to Trump's percentage, and they think, well,
Speaker 1: since a endorse b their supporters all go, and therefore
Speaker 1: it's now a two person ticket of sorts where their
Speaker 1: numbers have added up, and those numbers add up to
Speaker 1: more than the Harris Waltz total. That's not how it
Speaker 1: works at all. Robert Kennedy is profoundly mentally ill, completely irrational,
Speaker 1: utterly demented, and the freak show of Maga is where
Speaker 1: he belongs.
Speaker 2: It's where he always belonged.
Speaker 1: The truth is that the American people, when they observe
Speaker 1: this race, we any clear eyed patriotic American sees is
Speaker 1: this seditious creature canteena of imbeciles, convicted felons, weirdos, sexual predators,
Speaker 1: wife theaters, and now a guy who changed the head
Speaker 1: off of a whale, who brought a dead bear cub
Speaker 1: to Central Park for some reason, who is a conspiracy
Speaker 1: theorist and a vaccine denier. So he isn't an attractant.
Speaker 1: He's a repellent, and so normal people are repelled by
Speaker 1: him and his joining forces with Trump. So in the
Speaker 1: end this is going to hurt Robert Kennedy. He couldn't
Speaker 1: even bring along his vice presidential candidate or his wife
Speaker 1: to support Trump. That's how weak his coattails are. This
Speaker 1: question is asked me to react to the inaugural joint
Speaker 1: media interview by Kamala Harris and Tim Walls. I thought
Speaker 1: it was fantastic she answered the questions. They showed steadiness
Speaker 1: and normalcy. Now, none of this takes place in a vacuum.
Speaker 1: So the place we have to start is Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: because while that is going on concurrent, the other campaign
Speaker 1: is busy also desecrating Arlington National Cemetery, Donald Trump's completely
Speaker 1: insane tweets, sexual tweets, tweets threatening to kill Americans, tweets
Speaker 1: threatening to imprison Americans, declarations of the Q and non
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory in sanity. While Kamala Harris, the Vice president,
Speaker 1: and Governor Wallas are sitting down answering questions, demonstrating calmness
Speaker 1: of temperament. These are normal people, These are good people. Now,
Speaker 1: the Republican smears against Tim Wall's military record are absurd
Speaker 1: and they're unfair. A question does not gain legitimacy because
Speaker 1: the other side has made a polemic attack within the
Speaker 1: subject area. So there are questions that get asked, For example,
Speaker 1: what will you do is your first day as president?
Speaker 1: That don't tell the American people anything.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you.
Speaker 1: Exactly what Kamala Harris will do on her first day
Speaker 1: as president. She'll wake up at the Blairhouse. She'll go
Speaker 1: to church at Saint John's. That's the place that Donald
Speaker 1: Trump ordered a tear gas attack on because he wanted
Speaker 1: to desecrate the Bible, like he desecrated Arlington for a
Speaker 1: photo op when he ordered government thudgs to attack Black
Speaker 1: Lives Matter protesters. She'll be inaugurated at the Capital of
Speaker 1: at noon. There'll be a luncheon following by the Joint Committee.
Speaker 1: Following that, they'll be a parade. She'll enter the White
Speaker 1: House and the Oval Office for the first time as president.
Speaker 1: She'll go upstairs, have a few minutes, and then she'll
Speaker 1: have to change into ball gowns, which is probably for
Speaker 1: the first time in American history, a much longer process
Speaker 1: than the male presidents we've had growing on their tuxedo.
Speaker 1: The President will go to many balls that night, and
Speaker 1: in the morning the business of governance will start. What's
Speaker 1: important to know about the Vice President and Governor Wallas
Speaker 1: is their philosophy about freedom, about the country, about us,
Speaker 1: And the most important thing the Vice President Harris has
Speaker 1: communicated is she has no malice in her heart for
Speaker 1: any of us, especially those of us who disagree with
Speaker 1: her on some issues.
Speaker 2: People who support.
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris despite disagreements, tease someone who looks at them
Speaker 1: as loyal and good Americans and wants to do right
Speaker 1: by them, do goodbye them them, not to do them harm,
Speaker 1: not to do to them what Trump wants. Trump wants
Speaker 1: power to take revenge against the people that it didn't
Speaker 1: support him. He talks about it all the time, believe him.
Speaker 1: Let me just say in conclusion to this, there has
Speaker 1: in all of history, and I mean all of it,
Speaker 1: never been a person seeking power promising to kill people
Speaker 1: when he got it. That didn't fulfill the promise. Ever,
Speaker 1: so when Donald Trump starts talking about killing people, wake up,
Speaker 1: pay attention and take the man seriously, even though, as
Speaker 1: the Vice President pointed out, he is a most unserious man.
Speaker 1: The question is Donald Trump keeps telling the American people
Speaker 1: we are on the brink of World War three? Is
Speaker 1: there any truth to it? Donald Trump is somebody who
Speaker 1: makes our allies tremble because of his incompetence and because
Speaker 1: of his affinity for our collective enemies. Donald Trump has
Speaker 1: a fetish for Kim Jong un. He has a fetish
Speaker 1: for Vladimir Putin. He has a fetish for the Chinese
Speaker 1: president because he wants their authority and power.
Speaker 2: He admires it.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump thinks he should be able to kill a
Speaker 1: political opponent. Donald Trump thinks he should be able to
Speaker 1: order summary executions. Donald Trump lust and admires some of
Speaker 1: the worst pirates on earth. And it is a true
Speaker 1: fact according to his ex wife, now buried resting peacefully
Speaker 1: forever on the first hole at the Bedminster golf Course,
Speaker 1: that he kept speeches by Adolph Hitler on his nightstand
Speaker 1: and it was the only book he was ever interested
Speaker 1: in reading. Apparently he was consumed by the idea Hitler's
Speaker 1: great insight that the bigger the lie, the more believable
Speaker 1: it would be. It's who the man is.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: All of the chaos in the world, all of the
Speaker 1: chaos in the Middle East, is joined. There is a
Speaker 1: coalition of nations that are the chaos nations. It is
Speaker 1: an access truly of evil. North Korea is in it,
Speaker 1: Iran is in it. Russia is in it. Russia is
Speaker 1: in the middle of prosecuting a war in Europe that
Speaker 1: if Ukraine is defeated, will spread, and if that war
Speaker 1: spreads into Europe on to NATO territory, Yes, World War
Speaker 1: three could begin. But that war will begin because of
Speaker 1: Trump's weakness, Kamala Harris's strength deters aggression and keeps peace.
Speaker 1: Because he was inept, bordering on imbecilic. Because Donald Trump
Speaker 1: can't distinguish between reality and fiction, fantasy and what's happening
Speaker 1: right now in real life. Because he's unprepared, because he's ignorant,
Speaker 1: because he doesn't read, because he knows nothing about the
Speaker 1: history of the country, and obviously, through his desecrations at
Speaker 1: Arlington National Cemetery, does not understand the price paid by
Speaker 1: Americans to keep peace in Europe so that the whole
Speaker 1: world could prosper into the twenty first century. There will
Speaker 1: be a reckoning with Iran, who was waging war on
Speaker 1: Israel and the United States. These are important questions for
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris. And we should understand that we live in
Speaker 1: a dangerous world. But the chances of things going truly
Speaker 1: off the rails increased exponentially with the most unfit man
Speaker 1: in the country serving in the Oval office, with the
Speaker 1: powers of the presidency being trailed by nuclear football carried
Speaker 1: by a military aid.
Speaker 2: Great question, and it's this.
Speaker 1: It references all of the insanity tweeted out by Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: his declarations of support for the QAnon, the qbanon conspiracy theories,
Speaker 1: his references to blow jobs, his references to killing people.
Speaker 2: On and on and on.
Speaker 1: And the question is what can be done? Is there
Speaker 1: anything within the political system that can stop the spread
Speaker 1: of this? So, yes, there is the American people and
Speaker 1: that's it. That is the political system. Government of the people,
Speaker 1: by the people, for the people. We have no shortage
Speaker 1: of whack jobs in America because we have a population
Speaker 1: of three hundred and fifty million people. There is an
Speaker 1: astonishing story about an airline pilot sitting in the jump
Speaker 1: seat of a commercial airline flight off duty, who reached
Speaker 1: it up and tried to sever the fuel to the engines.
Speaker 1: He was hallucinating, apparently on shrooms, which he had taken
Speaker 1: forty eight hours before. It's been charged with eighty two
Speaker 1: counts of murder, but unlike Trump, he's taken responsibility for
Speaker 1: his inexplicable actions before that day. This was a completely
Speaker 1: normal person. It's one of the most fascinating stories I've
Speaker 1: ever read about a real life event. One thing is
Speaker 1: clear about that man. He should absolutely never ever operate
Speaker 1: and aircraft again. Donald Trump is our national shroom pilot.
Speaker 1: We have to stop him. Appreciating that there's a large
Speaker 1: number of whack jobs in the country is different than
Speaker 1: ceding to the whack jobs out of apathy the power
Speaker 1: for them to assert control over all of our lives,
Speaker 1: especially when Trump is so clear over and over again
Speaker 1: he wants to take some of our lives.
Speaker 2: He's a man of violence and chaos, and increasingly.
Speaker 1: He's a man who is decomposed. He is a fascist, certainly,
Speaker 1: but so how much was talked about with regard to
Speaker 1: the president's mental acuity. Did President Biden ever threaten to
Speaker 1: kill an America. Did President Biden, in the worst moment
Speaker 1: of his presidency to televised debate, did he do anything
Speaker 1: as unhinged, as reckless, as completely batshit crazy as what
Speaker 1: Trump has said? Look at these tweets? Is he in
Speaker 1: a manic episode? What is Donald Trump's mental health condition?
Speaker 1: Is this the function of some type of sinility? Has
Speaker 1: he had a stroke? What's wrong with him? But that's
Speaker 1: not the key question. We know something's wrong with him
Speaker 1: For the country. The question is what is wrong with
Speaker 1: us if we give this man power? Because only a
Speaker 1: stick society would collectively do something like that, and the
Speaker 1: people that would be doing it are the grandchildren and
Speaker 1: great grandchildren of the people who saved the world, many
Speaker 1: of them buried in Arlington National Cemetery, which Trump just desecrated.
Speaker 1: I have the deepest faith in the American people that
Speaker 1: this era of whack jobbery is coming to an end
Speaker 1: because the American people won't tolerate it. Winston Churchill had
Speaker 1: an observation a long time ago. He said, the Americans
Speaker 1: always do the right thing after exhausting all the other alternatives.
Speaker 1: I think that's what's going to happen. I think we're
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the end of the Trump era,
Speaker 1: that we're going to have the sixty six craziest days
Speaker 1: in American political history.
