At his first meeting with Biden 47 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 7: for debate prep, quote Clayan was startled. He'd never seen 48 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 7: Biden so exhausted and so out of it. Biden was 49 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 7: unaware of what was happening in his own campaign. Halfway 50 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 7: through the session, the President excused himself and went off 51 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 7: to sit by the pool. Part about the pool. He 52 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 7: went off.

Could 56 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: not love this more. But before we get to that, 57 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: President Trump having maybe the best week or two weeks 58 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: President's had in a very very long time Scott Jennings 59 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: at CNN making that case. 60 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 7: Donald Trump just going crazy in terms of executive orders. 61 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 7: He can issue an executive order today and will likely 62 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 7: he said so today, and he knows that the lower 63 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 7: courts cannot carte blanche stop him, which hugely increases the 64 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 7: power of the executives. 65 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, Look, this is a great week for him, not 66 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 8: just because of this ruling, but earlier in the week, 67 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 8: the Supreme Court handed him the ruling on being able 68 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 8: to deport illegal immigrants to third party countries essentially. So 69 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 8: he's on a little bit of a winning streak in the. 70 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: Court right now. 71 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 8: And you know what a lot of Republicans are saying 72 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 8: is nope, we're not tired of winning yet. 73 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: This happened.

We don't have six 81 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: hunder presidents. 82 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 8: We have one president, and now he's going to be 83 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 8: able to actually govern. 84 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: And so you could make an argument that this week 85 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: or the last. 86 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 8: Two weeks the best week or two weeks of his 87 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 8: entire presidency. 88 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: Liberal Justice Elena Kagan in twenty twenty two made exactly 89 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: the same point. Liberal District court judges should not be 90 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: able to stop the president. This is what she said 91 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: when Biden was president. 92 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 9: Just can't be right that one district judge can stop 93 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 9: the nationwide policy in its tracks and leave it stopped 94 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 9: for the years that it takes to go through normal process. 95 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: Governor Ron DeSantis doing great things with Alligator Alcatraz in Florida. 96 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: It has the inner redneck in me very very excited. 97 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: Some of the alligators used to surround the immigrant detention 98 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: center are being transported from the Louisiana swamps.

There 177 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: is a great frustration that Trump kept into and that 178 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: is the reason for the depth of love, adoration, almost 179 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: worship of him. Is finally somebody in my country cares 180 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: about me, And that was such a deep well of 181 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: emotion that it's that's where the love comes from. It 182 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: really is. President Trump was asked what he called the 183 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: best question he's ever been asked. 184 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 11: Mister President, a leading global economists just at a one 185 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 11: to eighty and says, your tariff plan you may have 186 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 11: as smart. 187 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: To everybody with it. So what is your message? I 188 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: love this, I love this question. 189 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 4: This is the favorite. 190 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: This is the best question I've. 191 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 6: Ever been asked, because I've been going through abuse for 192 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,839 Speaker 6: years on this. But mister because as you know, we're 193 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 6: taking in hundreds of billions of dollars, no inflation whatsoever. 194 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 11: But mister President, what is your message to critics you 195 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 11: think you were tariff plans will cause a recession. 196 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 13: I think they should go back to business school. 197 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 4: It's so obvious. It's so obvious. 198 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 6: I mean, we're taking in billions and billions of dollars 199 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 6: from China and a lot of other countries. 200 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 1: President Tump also took an opportunity to call out the 201 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: anti Semitism in the Democrat Party, most notably from Chuck Schumer. 202 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 6: Guys like Schumer our great Palace TONI and Senator this guy. No, 203 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 6: he's changed. He used to like Jewish people. Now he's 204 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 6: totally against Jewish people. It's the most incredible transformation I. 205 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 4: Think I've ever seen. 206 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: You know, there is a transformation occurring in New York. 207 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: You can see it. If the New York Mayor's election 208 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: occurs on the pace it has been, that city will 209 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: change dramatically, and a lot of Jewish Democrats will realize 210 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: that they were responsible for their own downfall. It was 211 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: not white Christians who were their enemies. It was not Republicans, 212 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: much as they wanted Republicans to be their enemies. It 213 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: was the Democrat Party that they worked so hard to 214 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: keep in power that eventually led to their downfall. And 215 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,040 Speaker 1: you will see a lot of those folks moves. So 216 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: I'll move to New Jersey, many will move to Florida. 217 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: Many already have. And it didn't have to be the case. 218 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: President Trump sat down with Maria Bartaromo a Fox News 219 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 1: and he said he thinks his administration has turned the 220 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: country around in the six months they've been in office. 221 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 13: As president, you were just coming off of one of 222 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 13: the most consequential weeks anybody has ever seen. 223 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: From striking Iran. 224 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 13: To going to NATO to announcing two deals and then 225 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 13: the Supreme Court victory. Have you been able to digest 226 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 13: what has occurred in the last seven days. Oh? Really, 227 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 13: it was pretty wild period of time. 228 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 6: And I really think in six months we've taken the 229 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 6: country and turned it around. 230 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 12: I was told by the King of Saudi Arabia, by. 231 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 6: The leader of Qatar and the leader. 232 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 12: Of Yuoye when we went over there we worked back 233 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 12: five point one three million dollars investment into the United States. 234 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 12: They said, you know, you're presiding now over the hottest 235 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 12: country in the world, and a year ago we thought 236 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 12: your country was dead. Hate could never come back. It 237 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 12: was so incompetently run by a very band president. And 238 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 12: I said, you're right, this country is hot. And that 239 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 12: was a couple of months ago. You know, now we're 240 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 12: talking about what we've done recently. So the country is 241 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 12: really going. And the numbers are great. I watch you 242 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 12: in the mornings and you're given those numbers and they're 243 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 12: really good. No inflation. We have a bad FED chairman, 244 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 12: but other than that, we have fetal grade. It doesn't 245 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 12: even matter. The numbers are so good. It doesn't matter 246 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 12: that he keeps the rates are officially high. But it's 247 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 12: it's been an amazing it's been an amazing period of time. 248 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: It's a news junkies overdose. I mean, it's just been 249 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: a few days since Operation Midnight Hammer that bombed Iran's 250 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: nuclear facilities. I mean that that was a win for America. 251 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: We hadn't had a win, least not in that way 252 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: in a while. Maria Bartiomo asked President Trump if he 253 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: was planning on doing anything for the B two pilots 254 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 1: who flew that mission that bombed Iran's nuclear facilities. And 255 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: this is what he said. 256 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 13: Those pilots are so courageous, and you know you want 257 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 13: to honor them. 258 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 4: Are you going to do something for them or. 259 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 13: Yes, they're going to come to the White House. But 260 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 13: what you said is right. These people flew thirty six 261 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 13: hours in a small space a big plane, but a 262 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 13: small space was mostly occupied by bombs, and they flew 263 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 13: so brilliantly, and they hit a target the size of 264 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 13: the circle. They a little target, they say, half the 265 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 13: size of the refrigerated door, from fifty thousand feet up 266 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 13: in the air, going at a rapid speacause they're going 267 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 13: very fast. When you know they're over a pretty rough 268 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 13: territory and they hit it every single time, and then 269 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 13: they knocked out two other sides. 270 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 4: Aside from that. 271 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: Think about that for a moment. Think about that level 272 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: of accuracy from that distance at that speed, the technology 273 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: that bomb had and the ability to deploy that. It's 274 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: truly amazing. I mean, I'm not a man of science 275 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: or technology, but it really has staggered the world. And 276 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: it's not lost on anyone that this is a way 277 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: of showing some folks out there who might be tempted 278 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: to saber rattle, this is what the Americans can do. 279 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: It's the Michael Barry Shows, twenty sixteen. Republican Primary. LISS 280 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: was a grand revelation for a lot of people in 281 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: our country because you had Jeb with an exclamation at 282 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: the end of it. You needed the exclamation or you 283 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: might forget to be excited about Jeb because he was 284 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: so sleepy. But it was a moment where you realized 285 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: there were people under the Republican banner who hate you. 286 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: And it wasn't until the Trump election that those people 287 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: were exposed. People like Adam Kinsinger, people like Liz Cheney, 288 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: and a lot of folks assumed, well, if you run 289 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: as a Republican, we share the same values. John Cornyn 290 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: sadly Mitch McConnell, the guy who was leading the Senate Republicans, 291 00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: and now look what he's done. John corn who's being 292 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: driven out of Texas. These guys hated Trump because they 293 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: hate you. They didn't want the peasants to be involved 294 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: in government. So you got Adam kin Singer and all 295 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: he can do now he is a professional agitator. He 296 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: is a professional critic of Trump. In a Navarro. You 297 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: look at these guys, what's the gout, mourning Joe with 298 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: his mistress. You look at these guys who used to 299 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: be considered Republicans and then they were exposed, and now 300 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: they just spend their whole time hating Trump. And in 301 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: order to hate Trump properly, they have to support Biden 302 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: and the Clintons and the Obamas. And it makes you wonder, 303 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: what did you really think all those years you were 304 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: part of the controlled opposition. So here's Adam Kin Singer, 305 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: who had to retire from Congress because he wasn't going 306 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 1: to be re elected. He told CNN that the effort 307 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: to take out Iran's capability had failed, and he said 308 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 1: that Trump had declared victory and claimed a ceasefire between 309 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: Israel and Iran, but that Trump failed. Here's what he said. 310 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 14: He declared victory before we had intelligence assessments. And the 311 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 14: worst part is he forced a cease fire between the 312 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 14: parties so that the b twos couldn't go back for 313 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 14: round two, for instance, that they needed to. Nobody guaranteed 314 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 14: that it would just take one round of strikes. The 315 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 14: political decision that maybe you have to go back for 316 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 14: a second strike was on Donald Trump, and he failed 317 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 14: at that. 318 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: Poor guy's such a bad weather. CNN's Michael Smerconish, not 319 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: exactly a Republican, certainly not a conservative, did a six 320 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: minute segment on the phenomenal week that Donald Trump's administration 321 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,959 Speaker 1: had just ad and he started by listing President Trump's 322 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: foreign policy wins, and Adam Kinsinger looks like a fool here. 323 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 15: The mission was carried out with stealth and with precision. 324 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 15: There were no American casualties, and while Congress is divided 325 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 15: after receiving briefings on the extent of the damage, I'm 326 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 15: sure that we've derailed Iran's nuclear program at least temporarily. 327 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 4: And there's some. 328 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 15: Valuable deterrent effect for America's adversaries who witnessed last week's exercise. 329 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 15: Then last Tuesday, President Trump left the White House and 330 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 15: route to Europe. At the time, there was a question 331 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 15: as to whether Israel. 332 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: And Iran would honor a cease fire. 333 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 15: That caused the President to offer the most unfiltered, non 334 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 15: controversial direct words that I can recall anybody ever saying 335 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 15: about the Middle East. 336 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 6: They basically have two countries that have been fighting so 337 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 6: long and so hard that they don't know what the 338 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 6: they're doing. 339 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 4: Do you understand that? 340 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 15: Cut to the Hague, where he arrived for NATO meetings 341 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 15: and was able to angle and agreement from our allies 342 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 15: to more than double their defense spending target from two 343 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 15: percent of gross domestic product to five percent by twenty 344 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 15: thirty five. Also, while at NATO, in a press availability, 345 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 15: he did something rare for Trump and I found rewarding. 346 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: He showed empathy. 347 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 15: He came in an exchange with the Ukrainian journalist who 348 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 15: said that her husband was a soldier. She asked whether 349 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 15: the US would supply her country with Patriot missiles? 350 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: Are you living yourself now? In your my husband is there? 351 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 5: Wow? 352 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 13: And I can see you very you know, it's amazing and. 353 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: Me were the kids.

I wish you 359 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 6: a lot of luck.

Empirically may be the best week of 373 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: Trump's presidency so far, President. 374 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 16: Flexing his political muscle there after what may be empirically 375 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 16: the best week of his presidency so far, a sweeping 376 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 16: Supreme Court victory, expanding his powers. The Dow at a 377 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 16: record high cees fires between Israel and Iran and in Rwanda. 378 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 16: And now President Trump is focusing on his allies on 379 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 16: Capitol Hill where he hopes for another win. 380 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: Democrats and their media couldn't help. And to his credit, 381 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: this this, this is CNN's Van Jones, who, unlike the 382 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: white liberal Democrats, Van Jones can appreciate the toughness of 383 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. He was on with Chris Solisso and he 384 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: talks about the fact that you've got to give Donald 385 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: Trump credit. This is what they can't do. They can't 386 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 1: ever bring themselves to give Donald Trump credit. And he 387 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: talks about the fact that Donald Trump is smarter than us. 388 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: This is a flashback CNN's Van Jones on with Chris Solissa. 389 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 17: How the hell did Donald Trump figure out the mainstream 390 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 17: media is the fringe and the fringe is now the mainstream. 391 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 17: How the hell did Donald Trump figure out? I mean, 392 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 17: Joe Rogan is obvious, right, Like we knew the guy 393 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 17: had a big audience. It's not like we were like 394 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 17: stun but like, how the hell was he the seventy 395 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 17: eight year old guy who doesn't even have a computer 396 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 17: and still like write handwritten notes. How did he become 397 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 17: the guy who cracked the code. On to your point, 398 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 17: running a cultural I don't even want to say campaign 399 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 17: running it is a movement, movement, heading a culture versus. 400 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 5: Every one of your people knows elon, Elon listen, Yeah, 401 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 5: so everybody keeps I mean, the problem is you have 402 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 5: a framework in your mind that how can Donald Trump? 403 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 5: How can Donald Trump? How can Donald Trump? Guys, can 404 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 5: we cut it out? Donald Trump is not an idiot 405 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 5: Donald Trump. Let me just be very clear. Donald Trump 406 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 5: is smarter than me, you and all critics. You know 407 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 5: how I know because he has the White House, the Senate, 408 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 5: the House totally agree for the popular vote. He has 409 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 5: a massive media ecosystem bigger than the mainstream, built around 410 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 5: him and for him, and a religiously a religious fervor 411 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 5: in a political movement around him. And he is best buddy, 412 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 5: is the richest person in the history of the world, 413 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 5: and the most relevant Kennedy is with him. 414 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,679 Speaker 1: This dude is a phenomenon. He is the most. 415 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 5: Powerful human on earth and in our lifetime. And we're 416 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 5: still saying, well, how was this car? 417 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 17: We look like idiots order He's totally right. 418 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: Michael Berry's show. 419 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 10: If he doesn't say it damn who will? 420 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: The true presidency is a fascinating thing doing what we do. 421 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 1: There is a video going around. I read it from 422 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: John LeFave, but there are a number of people who've 423 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: posted it. I just encourage you to go look at it. 424 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: It is Tim Wall, the governor of Minnesota, walking in 425 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: the Pride month parade in his state, and he's got 426 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: his jazz hands out. Hai y'all high. 427 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 4: It's kind of. 428 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: His coming out ceremony. You can tell he is so excited. 429 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: He is just really thrilled at this moment. He's walking 430 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: in the gay Pride parade. There's his wife looking like 431 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: his mother. She looks anyway. That's not the subject of 432 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: the segment, but please just go and watch it. That 433 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: guy was well. He wasn't within a whisker of being 434 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 1: vice president, but he did at least run. We are 435 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: not a breaking news show, as I say quite often, 436 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 1: and that's to manage people's expectations. I think that breaking news, 437 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: especially in the era of Trump, is often wrong, and 438 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: since we are not a primary news source, I don't 439 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: want to repeat bad news and push it further down 440 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: the line and put whatever credibility I've managed to muster 441 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: behind it because the corrections page is over on page seventeen, 442 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: as opposed to the story that's top of the fold, 443 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: page one. In the old newspaper industry, So what ends 444 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: up happening is we live so much in the here 445 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: and now that sometimes we miss the bigger picture and 446 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: we try to be more of a magazine than a 447 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: daily newspaper. People sometimes get frustrated that we're not talking 448 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: about what's happening at the second it's happening, And the 449 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: reason is because we're not there and we don't want 450 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: to report and comment and analyze things using bad information 451 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: that was actually a syop. There's a lot of that done. 452 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: There are a lot of stories that are leaked and 453 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: then promoted so they'll be reported, and it turns out 454 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: that's not true, but there's no time to go back 455 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: and pick up the story and fix it. It also 456 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 1: means that we or the media tends to fail to 457 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: really give perspective on what has happened. I give you 458 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: a good example. Friday was the first anniversary of the 459 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: debate that ended the Biden campaign. Now you'll remember that 460 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 1: debate was very early in the political process. Remember they 461 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: scrapped the whole primary. They just announced Biden would be 462 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: the nominee, and that was it because he couldn't have 463 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 1: done a debate. He was in terrible shape. They tried 464 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: to act like, oh, he just fell apart yesterday. No, 465 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: that wasn't true. They had him sundowning and him tucked away. 466 00:27:55,760 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: It really was like a bad sci fi movie. Was 467 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: the first anniversary of the debate that ended that campaign, 468 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: and before the debate, the woman that Donald Trump, I 469 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: think accurately calls that nasty person, Caitlyn Collins, reported how 470 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 1: intensely Joe Biden was prepping. Oh he was really they 471 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: were getting him ready. He was good, even though he 472 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: was the president. He was taking time to be ready 473 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: to show. Oh, lion, Donald Trump, he was going to 474 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: show him. Contrast that report with Abby Phillips ten months later, 475 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: when she quoted reports that Joe wasn't quite as intense 476 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:51,719 Speaker 1: as her network had reported. So what changed? Why did 477 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,479 Speaker 1: they tell us? Well, he's in there, old Joe Biden, 478 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: he's getting acturate, he's he wants to be president again. 479 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: He's sharp as attack. Remember morning, Joe said, He's never 480 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: been better. And then ten months later CNN. 481 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: Reported this President Biden has spent days locked in intense preparation, 482 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,959 Speaker 2: surrounded by his closest advisors at Camp David, and our 483 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 2: sources are telling us tonight that full mock debates are 484 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 2: underway at. 485 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: The podium under the lights. 486 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 2: He's even watching tape to know exactly what she's going 487 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 2: to see when he steps up to that lecture. His 488 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 2: team shot a video during a walkthrough of the CNN studio, 489 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 2: and as I reported while covering him at the White House, 490 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 2: when Biden prepares, he does so incredibly intensively. 491 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 7: So just how worried where Biden aids before the former 492 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 7: president's disastrous debate last summer. According to Ron Klain, his 493 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 7: chief of staff, his concerns could not be overstated. 494 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: At his first. 495 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 7: Meeting with Biden for debate prep, quote Clayan was startled. 496 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 7: He'd never seen Biden so exhausted and so out of it. 497 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 7: Biden was unaware of what was happening in his own campaign. 498 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 7: Halfway through the session, the President excused himself and went 499 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 7: off to sit by the pool. 500 00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: Part about the pool. 501 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 7: He went off in the middle of debate prep, went 502 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 7: off to the pool, and he took a nap. 503 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: So that was my mistake. That was the report at 504 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: the time. Both of those reports were what benefited CNN 505 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: at the moment. They did what was in their interest 506 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: at the moment. Collins reported the intense prep by Joe 507 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: Biden when the media was still portraying him as being 508 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: really sharp and Joe Scarborough was telling he's never been better. 509 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: And then with CNN's Jake Tapper's book about to hit 510 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: the bookstore, the same network, these people have no shame, 511 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: the same network who told us that boy Biden's never 512 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: been better. Then a few months later, Jake Tapper, with 513 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: that network, writes a book about the fact that he 514 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: was completely out of it, brain dead. This was the 515 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: moment most people think of when they think back on 516 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: that debate. 517 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 4: What's happened. 518 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 3: I've changed it in the way that now you're in 519 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 3: a situation where there are forty percent fewer people coming 520 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 3: across the border illegally. 521 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 4: It's better than when he left office. 522 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 3: And I'm going to continue to move until we get 523 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 3: the total ban on the total initiative relative to what 524 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 3: we're going to do with more border patrol and more 525 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 3: asignum officers. 526 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 6: President Trump, I really don't know what he said at 527 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 6: the end of this sentence, I don't think he knows 528 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 6: what he said he did. 529 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: Only Trump could have done what he just did. That 530 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: was a moment so awful that there were probably a 531 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: lot of Republicans who felt bad about it. There were 532 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: probably a lot of Republicans who, after he had that 533 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: moment Jap chops, after he did that, would have just 534 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: pretended it didn't happen, because we're all in the same 535 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 1: fraternity together, and we can't possibly criticize one of our own. 536 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's our buddy. Trump absolutely eviscerrated him. Can you 537 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: just play that last little bit from Trump there, ramont 538 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: or just that last twenty six seconds? 539 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 3: Go ahead, what's happened. I've changed it in the way 540 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 3: that now you're in a situation where there are forty 541 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 3: percent fewer people coming across the border illegally. 542 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 4: That's better than when he left office. 543 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,239 Speaker 3: And I'm going to continue to move until we get 544 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 3: the total band on, the total initiative relative to what 545 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 3: we're going to do with more border control and more 546 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 3: sign of President Trump. 547 00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 4: I really don't know what he said at the end 548 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 4: of this sentence. I think he knows what he said either. 549 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 10: Yeah,
