WEBVTT - Donald Trump Gets STEAMROLLED By Putin

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.840
<v Speaker 1>It is Monday, August the eighteenth. This is the warning.

0:00:04.880 --> 0:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>President Zelenski of Ukraine is in Washington, d C. As

0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:13.920
<v Speaker 1>are the leaders of the European democracies. They're there because

0:00:13.960 --> 0:00:19.079
<v Speaker 1>they are fearful of the great appeasement in Anchorage. Historically,

0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:24.800
<v Speaker 1>it will be recalled astonishingly by a future generation as

0:00:24.840 --> 0:00:29.639
<v Speaker 1>the equivalent of Munich, and with awe, they will wonder,

0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:34.159
<v Speaker 1>how was it possible that, within the span of the

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:39.360
<v Speaker 1>living lifetime of the men who stormed the beaches and

0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:44.520
<v Speaker 1>the survivors of the death camps, that an American president

0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:50.160
<v Speaker 1>would embrace the philosophy of Charles Lindberg and the American

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>booned and the fascists, and deploy the American military against

0:00:55.640 --> 0:01:01.040
<v Speaker 1>the people, That he would betray freedom around the world,

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that he would commit acts of arson against the Constitution

0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:09.319
<v Speaker 1>of the United States, and in the end, he would

0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:14.640
<v Speaker 1>take the American flag, synonymous with freedom all over the

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:19.080
<v Speaker 1>world and defile it by placing it next to the

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:23.319
<v Speaker 1>Russian dictator who launched an illegal war of aggression that

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:26.679
<v Speaker 1>is killed and wounded a million of his own soldiers

0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 1>and killed tens of thousands of Ukrainians, and has seen

0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:37.760
<v Speaker 1>the kidnapping and shipping east of thousands of Ukrainian children kidnapped,

0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:42.800
<v Speaker 1>was stolen from their parents. This man was greeted with

0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:48.200
<v Speaker 1>honor and dignity on American soil. It was an astonishing

0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 1>propaganda victory for the Russian tyrant pursuing peace. Nothing could

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 1>be further from the truth. The thing about propaganda, seeing it,

0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:06.160
<v Speaker 1>witnessing it, watching it assault the consciousness, the sentience, the

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:11.280
<v Speaker 1>ability of people to critically think, is appalling. It is frightening,

0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:15.000
<v Speaker 1>and it is real, and it is happening. Pursuing peace.

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 1>The reality show that Donald Trump is producing is fascist

0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:23.720
<v Speaker 1>in character, right down to the masked men, right down

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:28.919
<v Speaker 1>to the sycophants and buffoons who surround him and this

0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>reality show. The images that have produces are meant to

0:02:34.120 --> 0:02:40.080
<v Speaker 1>show American strength, but sometimes reality intrudes. Here is a

0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Russian vehicle manufactured in the United States, captured on the battlefield,

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:51.240
<v Speaker 1>flying the Russian tricolor and the American flag together, images

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 1>that show two flags of what brutality and oppression and

0:02:55.919 --> 0:02:59.120
<v Speaker 1>rape and murder. One thing is true That was not

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:03.760
<v Speaker 1>until very recently. Both countries have massed agents that snatch

0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:07.960
<v Speaker 1>people off the streets. This is an astonishing scene watching

0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 1>these federal agents to tell a man on his porch

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:15.799
<v Speaker 1>that Trump doesn't like drinking or smoking, so to watch himself.

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 2>Today saying that Trump, you got your idea on your chick.

0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, uh no, I live right here. Okay, cool, here's

0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 1>a cigarette. All right.

0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:34.560
<v Speaker 2>Did y'all get to call us up about right here? No,

0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 2>So we're doing checks, keep everybody safe down here, right.

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever you heard of the federal search that

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump's putting out?

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:41.720
<v Speaker 1>No, right, you don't.

0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:46.960
<v Speaker 2>You don't follow three anything like that. Yeah, Trump's Trump's

0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:50.000
<v Speaker 2>got all federal agencies kind of coming together seven days

0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:54.480
<v Speaker 2>and going out trying to stop the violent crime, all

0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 2>kinds of stuff. So we're out here contacting people talking

0:03:57.040 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 2>to him, right fall your life offenses, smoking, drinking the

0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 2>public right, can't happen to the outside.

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:08.560
<v Speaker 1>The officiousness in the heavy hand is nothing compared to

0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:12.360
<v Speaker 1>the jackboot that's coming down. Because what Donald Trump is

0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 1>preparing in the interior of the United States is to

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:22.520
<v Speaker 1>allow MAGA states to volunteer their national guards for federal

0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:26.640
<v Speaker 1>service in the US Army to be deployed to democratic

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:32.279
<v Speaker 1>led states and cities, functionally as an occupying force abroad.

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:36.120
<v Speaker 1>The United States is turning its back on its historic

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:40.599
<v Speaker 1>commitment to human rights, the concept of human dignity, the

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:44.840
<v Speaker 1>idea that each of us is sacred, each human being

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:49.039
<v Speaker 1>made in the image of God. We are abandoning our

0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:54.640
<v Speaker 1>most noble principles. And while that is happening, Washington is

0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:59.680
<v Speaker 1>a wash in a rising tide of corruption unprecedented in

0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:04.279
<v Speaker 1>the history of the country. Donald Trump is assembling a

0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:09.159
<v Speaker 1>police state and an ice army and prisons all over

0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:13.599
<v Speaker 1>the country where human beings are being abused and denied

0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:18.400
<v Speaker 1>their basic rights, and perhaps the most un American abuse

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:22.919
<v Speaker 1>of power since the interment of Japanese Americans in the

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Second World War. What we're seeing being done to Hispanic citizens,

0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:32.640
<v Speaker 1>the fear that is being stoked by massed agents who

0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 1>indiscriminately can show up at a school, at a work site,

0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>in a car wash with weapons ready they fired into

0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:43.679
<v Speaker 1>a car this weekend, is terrifying people. And that's the point.

0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Fear is a most powerful weapon. And Donald Trump is

0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:51.880
<v Speaker 1>trying to say something, something that he admires, something that

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:55.600
<v Speaker 1>he's learned from Vladimir Putin, which is that people can

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.599
<v Speaker 1>do whatever they want so long as they stay in

0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:02.920
<v Speaker 1>line and let Donald take whatever he wants, have whatever

0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:06.799
<v Speaker 1>he wants, and do whatever he wants to whomever he wants,

0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:10.240
<v Speaker 1>because Donald is the law, and what Donald says goes.

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:14.040
<v Speaker 1>This is a man filled with malice who's been threatening

0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:19.520
<v Speaker 1>the country for ten long years. Masked agents in American cities,

0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the army establishing checkpoints on America's streets, deployed against the

0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>people and the government of the people, by the people

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 1>for the people that they swore an oath to preserve.

0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:37.159
<v Speaker 1>What we're seeing is sectionalism, the abuse of one part

0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:41.320
<v Speaker 1>of the country by a political faction under a leader

0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:45.080
<v Speaker 1>who says, let's get rid of the checks and balances,

0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 1>let's get rid of the sharing of power and trade

0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:52.279
<v Speaker 1>it in for one man rule. There's nobody see that.

0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:56.800
<v Speaker 1>This man is naked before us, with his swollen ankles,

0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:01.800
<v Speaker 1>incoherent his best friend, the most victorious pedophile of the

0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:05.479
<v Speaker 1>twenty first century, the files that he is covering up

0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:09.560
<v Speaker 1>this loathsome criminal as the president of the United States.

0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:12.320
<v Speaker 1>And what he has done this August and what he

0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:15.360
<v Speaker 1>will do on this day, the eighteenth of August, is

0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>lay the foundation for suffering in the world that is

0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 1>beyond imagination for most Americans. What he will do this

0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:26.680
<v Speaker 1>day is dishonor the United States. And what he will

0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:30.960
<v Speaker 1>do this day is lay a foundation for a terrible

0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:34.960
<v Speaker 1>war to come, an unnecessary war, Trump's war, while this

0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:41.040
<v Speaker 1>bombastic buffoon publicly campaigns for a Nobel Peace prize. This man,

0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:45.040
<v Speaker 1>I want to be tyrant, a dime store. Mussolini is

0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:49.120
<v Speaker 1>going to look the democratically elected leader of a nation

0:07:49.640 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>dead in the eye and tell them the United States

0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:56.640
<v Speaker 1>stands with the Russian invader. It is a tragedy. It

0:07:56.720 --> 0:08:01.080
<v Speaker 1>is a day of shame or another day in America.

0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:05.000
<v Speaker 1>But what will happen today will reverberate for a very

0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:09.720
<v Speaker 1>very long time to come. This is the warning. I'm
