1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,279 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is an American fascist who idolizes foreign fascists 2 00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: like Vladimir Putin. He wants the power to execute his opponents. 3 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: He wants the power to kill his opponents. This is 4 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 1: what he admires. His specific fetish is for the type 5 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: of power that can do harm, that can kill, that 6 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: can do damage. That's why he venerates Vladimir Putin. And 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: no American president should venerate a strong man, a dime 8 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: store Mussolini like Putin, who threatens the world with nuclear destruction, 9 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:42,919 Speaker 1: invades his neighbors and kidnaps their children. It is disgraceful. 10 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 1: This is the morning Donald Trump said again this weekend 11 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: that immigration is plaguing America because we are receiving people 12 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: from quote unquote, as he calls them, shithole countries. Of course, 13 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: these countries have something in common. They are majority minority countries. 14 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: They are countries where people have brown eyes, black skin, 15 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:16,639 Speaker 1: brown skin. They are not white, Norwegian, blonde, blue eyed. 16 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: And this is not accidental. When Trump says that why 17 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: can't we have immigration from nice countries, what he might 18 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: as well be saying is why can't we have immigration 19 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: from countries where the master race lives that's what he means. 20 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: So when he talks about to his chief of staff 21 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: John Kelly, while he's supposed to be at a World 22 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: War One battlefield, about well, this is all of the 23 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: good stuff that Hitler believed in and accomplished and did. 24 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: This stuff has meaning because he is a racist of 25 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: the most sinister and despicable type. He means something very specifically. 26 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: When he means the nice countries, what he means is 27 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: pale skinned, white blue eye. What he means is the 28 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: aryan ideal, no joke. He says it out loud, and 29 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: we're all numb to it. Simple fact in the matter 30 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 1: is is that the country of birth that has achieved 31 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: more valor awards amongst American soldiers fighting under the American 32 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: flag is Mexico. So the contributions to the United States 33 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: of brown and black skinned people from all over the 34 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: world are monumental. And when Trump says what he says, 35 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: he degrades that he dehumanizes the people that help build 36 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: the country, the Chinese workers, for example, that built the 37 00:02:55,840 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: Transcontinental Railroad. It's the it's purposeful, it's nasty, it's cruel, 38 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: and it is unbecoming at a profound level. For any 39 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: person who seeks high political office in the United States 40 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: of America, let alone a former president, let alone somebody 41 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: who aspires to sit behind the resolute desk in the 42 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: Oval Office. It is outrageous and it must be opposed. 43 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: It must be condemned because it is clear what it is. 44 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: It is the most obvious and odious example of direct 45 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: racism out of the mouth of someone in proximity to 46 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: the office of the Presidency in one hundred years. It 47 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: is a statement that turns the clock back literally a century. 48 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: It eradicates progress, the idea of racial justice, this notion 49 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: that we should all be measured on the basis of 50 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: the content of our character. Trump is decimating that with 51 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: these statements. It's wrong, it's disgusting, it's ugly. Americans should 52 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: not tolerate it. It debases the seventy million immigrants who 53 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: were born in other lands that came to this country, 54 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: of which they have hundreds of millions of descendants, of 55 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: which I am one and most likely that you are one. 56 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's America First foreign policy is a replica of 57 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: what the original America First foreign policy was. It is 58 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:47,039 Speaker 1: a policy of appeasement, and specifically, it is an appeasement 59 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: of fascism. The original American First foreign policy appeased German Nazis, 60 00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: German fascists, Italian fascists, Japanese fascists, Japanese nationalists, Japanese militarists. 61 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: This new America First, this new American fascism appeases Russian fascists. 62 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: Nothing is new. It is the same theory. It just 63 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: has a new brand. It's just shined up. It's now 64 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: the golden tea that is the symbol of American fascism. 65 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: America First is an anti American philosophy. It is the 66 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: philosophy that looked at Adolf Hitler with admiration. It is 67 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: the philosophy that said we should not stand with England. 68 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: It is the philosophy of surrender, of appeasement. It is 69 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: the philosophy that set of fascism, that set of human slavery, 70 00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: that this is something to be admired. It is the 71 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: most wrong and errant political philosophy in the most immoral 72 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: in all of American history. The America First movement was 73 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: the committee of the booned Nazi sympathizers to despicable movement 74 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: and the idea that it's been rehabilitated in the twenty twenties, 75 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: in the twenty first century, as if none of the 76 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: lessons of the Second World will apply, that none of 77 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: the dangers of appeasement, none of those lessons were learned. 78 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: It is an astonishment of the age. But the original 79 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: America First Movement was on American. This America First Movement 80 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: is on American. That America First Movement coddled a foreign 81 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: dictator who hated humanity. This America First Movement coddles a 82 00:06:55,040 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: foreign dictator who hates humanity. That America First Movement appeased 83 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: a foreign dictator who invaded a neighboring country and said 84 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: that the aggression was necessary because the peaceful neighbor was, 85 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: in fact the aggressor. Today's America First has an iddentical 86 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: enthrallment to the Russian dictator who's doing the exact same thing. 87 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: So the philosophy is dangerous, it is ugly, and it 88 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: is clear what it is. It is clear what it 89 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: was then, is clear what it is today. It is 90 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: a philosophy of appeasement. And Donald Trump is an American 91 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: fascist who idolizes foreign fascist Like Vladimir Putin, he wants 92 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: the power to execute his opponents. He wants the power 93 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: to kill his opponents. This is what he admires. He 94 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: doesn't look at the French president, the British president, the 95 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: Estonian prime minister and look at people and say I 96 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: share their values. I have a commitment to human freedom, 97 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: dignity and liberty. The only thing he cares about is 98 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: the idea of power of strength, and his specific fetish 99 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: is for the type of power that can do harm, 100 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: that can kill, that can do damage. That's why he 101 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: venerates Vladimir Putin, and no American president should venerate a 102 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: strong man, a dime store Mussolini like Putin, who threatens 103 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: the world with nuclear destruction, invades his neighbors and kidnaps 104 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: their children. It is disgraceful. The Russian War has been 105 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: costly for the Russian people. There are more than five 106 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: hundred thousand casualties, and there are nearly fifty thousand Ukrainian casualties. 107 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 1: It is not the job of the former president of 108 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: the United States to suggest what the Ukrainian people are 109 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: supposed to give away of their land, of their history, 110 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: of their territory to appease the invader after so much sacrifice. 111 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: It's not the job of the American president to say 112 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: you must as if Ukraine is a latter day Czechoslovakia 113 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: has sold out where the Czechoslovakians were not even allowed 114 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: into the room with the Ladier with Neville Chamberlain and 115 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: Adolph Hitler when the future of a nation was decided 116 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: without anyone from that country in the room. It remains 117 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: one of the most dishonorable and despicable chapters in all 118 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: of human history. It is the great betrayal of the 119 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: democracies to any small country, and it can never be 120 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: repeated again, and it must never be something that an 121 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: American participates in the United States of America. Must arm 122 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: the Ukrainian people and help them fight with the weapons 123 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: they need for as long as they are able and 124 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: willing to fight against the Russian aggression. Because for as 125 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: long as they fight and as successfully as they hold 126 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: the Russians back, it means Russia will not be able 127 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: to swallow Europe and that World War III will be postponed. 128 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: We live at the edge of a dangerous hour, a 129 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: dangerous new epoch. We live at the edge of a 130 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: new World war, and it's time that we start talking 131 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: about it. It's time to start seeing it, because what's 132 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: coming is clear. The winds are blowing. A great violence 133 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: has been unleashed in Ukraine, and no American presidence should 134 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: say the Ukrainian people that it's time for you to 135 00:10:54,280 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: surrender because we don't have the right. It's shameful. We 136 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: must stand with these people. We must stand with them 137 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: and arm them until the end. And if we don't, 138 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: and if they fail, this war will spread and it 139 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 1: will endanger millions of American lives.
