1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: It is the second of January, and there are eighteen

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: days left, slightly more than two weeks until Donald Trump

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,799
Speaker 1: will become the forty seventh president of the United States,

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: joining Grover Cleveland, is the only man to serve non

5
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: consecutive terms. This is the warning. The President in waiting

6
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: was in fine fiddle at mar A Lago on New

7
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: Year's Eve. The entire Maga menagerie assembled for a night

8
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: of partying and observation. Here's Ted Cruz. It seems like

9
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: he's casting his gaze on something. Looking at these people,

10
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 1: Every American should appreciate the catastrophe at hand. And for Democrats,

11
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: and I'm not talking about the seventy four million that

12
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: voted for Kamala Harris and the independence. I'm talking about

13
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 1: the leaders of the party who architected this disaster. The

14
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: American people chose these people over you. And yet the

15
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: people who brought this to the American people, the leaders

16
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party, think they ran a flawless campaign.

17
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: At any rate, they won't have much say because Donald

18
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: Trump controls the party, lock stock and barrel, and the

19
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 1: party controls the government and the House tenuously. And apparently

20
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: America now has two leaders there's the elected President Trump

21
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: and his sugar daddy, the unelected Emperor Elon I, the

22
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: man whose net worth has increased by two hundred billion

23
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: dollars since Donald Trump took office, and Elon Musk has

24
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: an agenda, and Elon muss agenda conflicts with the MAGA grassroots.

25
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: In eighteen days before Trump has taken office, there is

26
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: a full on civil war underway between Elon Musk and

27
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: the tech build billionaires, the finance arm of the Trump regime,

28
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: and the grassroots led by Steve Bannon. Now, the civil

29
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: war was started when the unctious, the obnoxious conspiracy theorist

30
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: Vivek Ramaswami denounced American culture. Ramaswami made the point that

31
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: it's Elon Musk who makes America strong, not the other

32
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: way around. At any rate, they insulted the base of

33
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: Trump's party, called them retarded and many worse things. And

34
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 1: all of this has led to Steve Bannon, the intellectual

35
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: architect of the MAGA movement, to say this about Trump's.

36
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 2: Daddy, Elon Musk. Once again, Brother, I'm smart enough to

37
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 2: tell you no to your face, and I'm evil enough

38
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 2: to be able to expose you as a running dog

39
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 2: for the greatest enemy this nation's ever had. You're a

40
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 2: war profiteer. You're you're sleeping with the enemy, brother, and

41
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 2: you've been doing it because all you you're not an

42
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 2: American nationalist. You're not even an American. All you are

43
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 2: is a globalist, okay, a globalist. And you will go

44
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 2: where everybody anybody writes you are checking.

45
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: You wouldn't.

46
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: You wouldn't take it from Adolf Hitler himself, because you're

47
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: taking it from people that are as bad as Adolf Hitler.

48
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 2: And this you're going to go to war on the

49
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 2: likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend. You're you're you're

50
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 2: a manchild to be blunt. I hate to make it personal,

51
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 2: but what you have done is try to trash individuals

52
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: punching down. Remember the first rule a gladiator school, bro,

53
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 2: don't punch down, be the punch or pure punch up

54
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: in this. Don't come up and go to the pulpit

55
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 2: in your first week here and start lecturing people about

56
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 2: the way things are going to be. If you're going

57
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,839
Speaker 2: to do that, we're gonna get and we're gonna rip

58
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 2: your face off.

59
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: Hey, elon, listen up. Bannon means it you gotta remember

60
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: you just got out of prison. At any rate, let

61
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: me explain to Dynah, this is not a normal government

62
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: functioning within a normal system. Donald Trump is the Sun King,

63
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: and around him is his court. The court meets at

64
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: mar A Lago there it is. This is Trump's court partying.

65
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: Look at these people, by the way, do you have

66
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: any neighbors that look like any of these people? They

67
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: look like characters from the Hunger Games living in the

68
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:29,239
Speaker 1: Capitol Panum. Truly, the leaders of the country increasingly don't

69
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: only not look like the people who live in the country,

70
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: they look like a different version of humanity, like Star

71
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: Trek characters, the faces of Maga. At any rate, these people,

72
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: in eighteen days will be in charge, and they will

73
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: compete with each other viciously to get closer in in

74
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 1: a zero sum game, if there's room for four people

75
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: around Trump, the goal with these people is not to

76
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: create space for a fifth. It's to take out too,

77
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,559
Speaker 1: so there's room for two more. And that's why you'll

78
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: see the most vicious level of infighting that there's ever been.

79
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: Can you imagine there was an email that was sent

80
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: out that reminded all of these vicious Charlatans and cranks

81
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: that in fact, there's only one president of the United States,

82
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: and that person is the one who speaks for the

83
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: United States, not Elon, not anybody else. The days ahead

84
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: are going to be very trying. The mag movement is

85
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:37,559
Speaker 1: flush with victory. The Democratic Party remains flat on its back.

86
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty five is going to be a year of chaos,

87
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: a year of extremism. But then a spark will be lit,

88
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: A moment will come and an energy will form, and

89
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: from that place, on that spot, in that moment, resolve

90
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: will harden, an opposition will harden, and there will not

91
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: be one step taken back after that. Instead, Trump will

92
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: start taking steps back. He'll start to be pushed back

93
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 1: by a growing majority of Americans who look at this

94
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: freak show, who look at the corruption, who look at

95
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,239
Speaker 1: the taking, who look at the double dealing, and say enough.

96
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: Immigration will be the great fault line of the Trump administration,

97
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: and he has promised to open his presidency with a

98
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: police action, the deportation of upwards of twenty million people.

99
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: Get ready for the greatest abuse of civil liberties in

100
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: American history, at least living American history. It's coming. The

101
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 1: Democrats aren't ready for it. The American people aren't ready

102
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: for it. But here at the warning, we are ready

103
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: for it, ready to cover it, ready to talk about it,

104
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 1: ready to respond to it, ready to hold the line

105
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: against it, and ready to talk to this community about

106
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: what's happening, why it's happening, and how to stop it.

107
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: Eighteen days from now, the Biden presidency is over. It

108
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: will be a whisper in history. It will be remembered

109
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: for nothing except for what it ushered, and that is Trump, who,

110
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: by one o'clock will have attempted to change decisively the

111
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: fabric of our country. He'll announce it in his inaugural speech,

112
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: and in the aftermath, after the stunned silence wears off,

113
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: it will be time to get to work because we'll

114
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: know exactly what to do, which is to stop him

115
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: from doing what he says he's going to do, which

116
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: will wreck the country and hurt millions of people in it.

117
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: This is the warning. Twenty twenty five will be a

118
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: most momentous year. I'm Steve Schmidt. This is the warning,
