1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,920
Speaker 1: There is a reality that has not talked enough about

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:08,239
Speaker 1: in America, and it's this. No man would tolerate this

3
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: politics tramples women's dignity, their human rights, their bodies, their agency.

4
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: And this project, this effort is underway here in America.

5
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: It must be opposed, it must be stopped. It is

6
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: April the eighth, two hundred and ten days remain until

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 1: the American people decide who the next president of the

8
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: United States will be. This is the warning. Donald Trump

9
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: has laid out his position on abortion. He claims that

10
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: he wants the States to decide the issue. Understand something.

11
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is surrounded by a phalanx of religious fanatics

12
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:06,320
Speaker 1: like Jerry Folwell Junior, people like Pastor Paula, people who

13
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: are fraudsters, people who are extremists, people who do not

14
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:18,839
Speaker 1: believe in the separation of church and state, which is

15
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: one of the greatest achievements for human freedom in all

16
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: of the animals of human history. It's an American invention.

17
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:37,839
Speaker 1: Trump is a huckster surrounded by religious hucksters. The religious

18
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: extremists around Donald Trump have only ever wanted one thing

19
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: from him. The bargain their support. The quid pro quo

20
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: was a return on an investment, and the investment was

21
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: the overthrowing of Roe v. Donald Trump when he says

22
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party believes in abortion after the birth, where

23
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: Democrats supposedly, according to Trump, believe that the infant can

24
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: be murdered, and that's an abortion as opposed to murder.

25
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: It's all insanity, it's nonsense. No Democrat supports this. Nobody

26
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 1: in America believes this. This is a lie, a slur,

27
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: a defamation, a figment of Trump's imagination, any imagination of

28
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: the religious zealous around him. But millions of Americans believe

29
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: that the Democratic Party believes as a core principle that abortion,

30
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: elective abortion can happen right up to the moment of birth.

31
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: And that is not true. That is not real. There

32
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: are no elective abortions that take place in America in

33
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 1: the eighth month, in the ninth month, up until the

34
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: moment of birth. There are tragic circumstances that require medical

35
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: intervention for non viable pregnancies, tragedies late in the pregnancy

36
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: where a husband and wife go to the doctor together

37
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: and they learned that the child they were expecting that

38
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: they had laid out the room for built the group

39
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: for was catastrophically deformed, not viable, unable to take their

40
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: first breath and survive. What do you do? This is

41
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: a medical procedure. You don't need Lindsey Graham in the

42
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: room for this. You don't need Marjorie Taylor Green in

43
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: the room for this. You don't need Mike Pence or

44
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: the Mike Pences of the world in the room for this.

45
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: Don't need Josh Holly or Ted Cruz in the room

46
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: for these decisions. The Republican Party that I grew up

47
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: in and was part of for many years, was supposed

48
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: to be the limited government party, the small government party,

49
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 1: but it has become deformed and hideous. It is the

50
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: ultimate big government party. It is the big government party

51
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: that can't stop looking, that can't stop peering, can't stop

52
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: keeping through the bedroom windows. And always there is a

53
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: lust for control. Control over women, over their bodies, over

54
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 1: their reproductive organs, over their rights, their autonomy, the pills

55
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: they can take, the medical procedures they may have, the

56
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: advice that their doctors are allowed to or not allowed

57
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: to give. There is a reality that has not talked

58
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: enough about in America, and it's this. No man would

59
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 1: tolerate this. It is not conceivable that men would tolerate

60
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:30,599
Speaker 1: a political regime where there is a constant imposition by

61
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: politicians of their sensibilities on our male bodies. We would

62
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: not abide it. For thousands of years of history, it

63
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: would not be tolerated. Yet, in American culture and in

64
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: cultures all over the world, politics tramples women's dignity, their

65
00:05:55,240 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: human rights, their bodies, their agency. And this pro this

66
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: effort is underway here in America. It must be opposed,

67
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,799
Speaker 1: It must be stopped. What Donald Trump is saying about

68
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: abortion is untrue. It's hideously untrue. Donald Trump is an

69
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: extremist on this issue. He is appointed extremists to the

70
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: highest court in the land. They have decimated the bonds

71
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: of trust between the American people and the judiciary. They

72
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: have eradicated belief and fairness in the concept of the

73
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: rule of law through their interference, their intervention, their constant

74
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: playing of politics. Donald Trump is trying to find a

75
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: middle position on this abortion question. He is the person

76
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: who has instigated the extremism. He is the person who

77
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 1: initiated the repeal of Roe v. Wade by nominating justices

78
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: who overtly pledged to him a political result from a

79
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: judicial outcome that badly corrupted faith and belief in the

80
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: rule of law by the American people. It was a

81
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: terrible decision by Trump, who has constantly tried to play

82
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: a double game on these social issues. This is all related.

83
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: When he says there are good people on both sides,

84
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: meaning the Nazis at Charlottesville, it's a wink and nod.

85
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: And now on this issue of abortion, what he's trying

86
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: to signal is that he's not Mike Johnson. He doesn't

87
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: believe that people in dinosaurs were walking around together five

88
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: thousand years ago. What Trump is trying to say is

89
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: that he's a moderating influence against the extremists. You can

90
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: trust him, He'll keep them in check. So this is

91
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: a wink and nod double game where Trump is appeasing

92
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: his base and also trying to deceive moderates into saying that, hey,

93
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: when it comes to this position, I'm not on the

94
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: side of people that want to make abortion illegal. Though

95
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: the fact that abortion is on its way to being

96
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: illegal and there's a legal regime that now says that

97
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: women who have an abortion are criminals in a lot

98
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: of states, and that doctors may probably and that doctors

99
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: may be prosecuted and other people involved may be prosecuted.

100
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 1: This is as a result of trump Ism. This is

101
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: his achievement. It is his accomplishment. He can't walk away

102
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: from it, but he's trying to mitigate it. Rhetorically, does

103
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: President Biden's criticism of Donald Trump measure up When President

104
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 1: Biden says, Donald Trump, when he becomes president again, if

105
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 1: he does, will sign immediately legislation that bans abortion. Of course,

106
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: he's telling the truth. Donald Trump does not believe American

107
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: women should be able to have a direct relationship with

108
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: a doctor. He believes politicians should be engaged, need to

109
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: be involved, need to be in the middle of it.

110
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:25,719
Speaker 1: In this dogma, this doctrine that says women in America

111
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: need a male guardian, a custodianship of sort, a political

112
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: consulting of sorts about what to do with their bodies

113
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 1: is an extremely extreme position and the American people should

114
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: recognize it for what it is. It is extreme. This

115
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: is a dangerous moment in America where freedom is being

116
00:09:53,760 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: trampled upon, and the groups that are most vulnerable or women,

117
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: black people, brown people, any minority group that has historically

118
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: been downtrodden in America is in the danger zone. We

119
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: should understand this. Women are at risk. There are at

120
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: risk from a disease. The disease is fascism, because fascism

121
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 1: is a dogma, a doctrine of control. And there has

122
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: never been a political doctrine or dogma of control that

123
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: has not landed very heavily on women who should remember

124
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 1: that as a first principle in this most momentous election

125
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: that lies just two hundred and ten days ahead. Thank
