1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: Well, folks, we are almost a year out from the

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: presidential election of Los Angeles Times editorial boards got a

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 1: dismal view of America in an editorial titled Undoing the

4
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: Great Mistake at two thousand sixteen. I wonder what that was.

5
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: They complain the country is bitterly polarized. Wages aren't going

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: up fast enough, income in equality is out of control,

7
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: Homelessness is reaching crisis levels. The American dream feels out

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: of reach too many, And even though unemployment is low,

9
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: dark anger and anxiety are gripping the voters. They're not done.

10
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: Colleges are in bad shape because of culture wars, global

11
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: alliances are cutting apart, climate change threatens our very existence,

12
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,639
Speaker 1: and for only the fourth time in history, the American

13
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 1: president is being investigated with an eye toward impeachment. Things

14
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: are bad, folks, really bad. They're dismal. They're rotten out there.

15
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: So what is the point of all this doom and gloom? Well,

16
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: according to the Times editorial Board, Donald Trump is the

17
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: reason for everything bad in America. He has the most

18
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 1: dangerous president in modern history. He has hoodwinked people. He

19
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: must be driven from the presidency at the ballot box.

20
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: A couple of quick points. Despite what you liberals think,

21
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: President Trump's election was not a mistake. It was largely

22
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 1: a direct and long overdue answer to you and you're lawless,

23
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: ruinous socialism. And to prove to you it wasn't a mistake,

24
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it again.
