WEBVTT - Steve Schmidt BLASTS Trump Regime for Incompetence

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:01.880
<v Speaker 1>One thing is certainly true.

0:00:02.200 --> 0:00:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Someone somewhere right now in the Trump White House is

0:00:06.480 --> 0:00:09.719
<v Speaker 2>doing something they ought not to be doing. It was

0:00:09.840 --> 0:00:13.600
<v Speaker 2>just that nobody expected that person to be Trump's revered

0:00:13.840 --> 0:00:18.680
<v Speaker 2>ice maiden, Susie Wiles, daughter of Pat summerl who is

0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:23.040
<v Speaker 2>the chief implementer of Donald Trump's evil vision. The historian

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:27.240
<v Speaker 2>Doris Currents Goodwin coined the phrase for Abraham Lincoln's cabinet

0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 2>team of rivals. What's the best name for this evil assemblage?

0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:36.880
<v Speaker 2>Photographed and vanity fair. I'm surprised they didn't crack the lens.

0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:42.640
<v Speaker 2>Team of idiots. We have Elon Musk, the ketamine user. Incredibly,

0:00:43.040 --> 0:00:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Susie Wiles says, why didn't say that Elon Musk was

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:49.480
<v Speaker 2>a kademine addict? And then the reporter goes to the recording.

0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:52.360
<v Speaker 2>Why can't these people stop lying?

0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk about it.

0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:58.880
<v Speaker 2>It's Wednesday, December seventeenth, and I'm Steve Schmidt. This is

0:00:58.920 --> 0:01:03.440
<v Speaker 2>the morning the Vice President of the United States. According

0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 2>to the White House Chief of Staff, he's a conspiracy

0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:08.600
<v Speaker 2>theorist and he is well.

0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 1>First of all, if.

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:15.760
<v Speaker 3>Susy is like I'll trust, I'll trust what you said,

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:17.319
<v Speaker 3>I haven't looked at the article. I of course have

0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:22.080
<v Speaker 3>heard about it, but conspiracy theorists sometimes I am a

0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:24.720
<v Speaker 3>conspiracy theorist, but I only believe in the conspiracy theories

0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 3>that are true.

0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 4>Here's the thing that we should really bother the American people.

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:31.199
<v Speaker 4>What do you want our intelligence community to be doing.

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:33.920
<v Speaker 4>I want them to be catching bad guys. I want

0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:35.960
<v Speaker 4>them to be making sure that terrorists aren't going to

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:40.240
<v Speaker 4>kill innocent American civilians. I don't want them laundering Hillary

0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:44.000
<v Speaker 4>Clinton's campaign talking points into the American media and giving

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:47.680
<v Speaker 4>them this air of legitimacy. It is sick and it's disgusting.

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:50.919
<v Speaker 4>It hurt the intelligence community, it hurt the American people,

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:52.559
<v Speaker 4>and it hurt the first Trump administration.

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:57.080
<v Speaker 2>There is no vice president of the United States less

0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 2>qualified and more unfit than this count schaffing Dufis this

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:06.480
<v Speaker 2>hillbilly from Silicon Valley, propped up by tens of millions

0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 2>of dollars of Peter Thiel's money, a sock puppet.

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:12.239
<v Speaker 1>Picked because the ADL.

0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:15.639
<v Speaker 2>President, who, accorded to his chief of staff, is never wrong,

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:20.360
<v Speaker 2>was convinced to do so by his son, Donald Trump Junior.

0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:22.440
<v Speaker 5>What is that change going to look like? Don what

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.639
<v Speaker 5>practically your father as president. I think you would even

0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:27.239
<v Speaker 5>say it was a divisive figure. What's it going to

0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:28.359
<v Speaker 5>look like in the second term.

0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:29.960
<v Speaker 6>I don't think he was a divisive figure at all.

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 6>I think the media created divisiveness around him. They lied

0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:35.040
<v Speaker 6>about Russia, Russia collusion, They said he was a trader.

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 6>They went after him in every which way is possible

0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:41.000
<v Speaker 6>if the media actually starts being an honest broker, talking

0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:43.280
<v Speaker 6>about the things that he did, the prosperity he brought,

0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 6>the peace deals that he signed around the world, rather

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:47.560
<v Speaker 6>than the disaster that we're living right now. I think

0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:49.120
<v Speaker 6>you do everyone in the country big favor.

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.440
<v Speaker 5>I know imgration's important to him. I covered the family

0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 5>separation crisis closely. When we continue to see policies like

0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:57.919
<v Speaker 5>separating five thousand children deliberately from their parents.

0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:00.320
<v Speaker 6>I mean the Obama administration. You know that I didn't

0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:00.760
<v Speaker 6>do that, sir.

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:04.359
<v Speaker 5>Sure now will there be a second family separation policy?

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:07.320
<v Speaker 6>It's AMSDNC. So I expect nothing less from you clowns,

0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:10.240
<v Speaker 6>even today, even forty eight hours later. You couldn't wait.

0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:12.880
<v Speaker 6>You couldn't wait with your lines and with your nonsense.

0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:14.399
<v Speaker 6>So just get out of here.

0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:19.040
<v Speaker 2>Remember him happy engagement Junior. By the way, he's engaged again.

0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 2>In case you didn't know, there's Marco Rubio in the picture.

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:26.639
<v Speaker 2>Oh and here's his wife on the White House Christmas Special.

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 7>So my name is Jeanette Rubio, my husband is Marco Rubio,

0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:33.720
<v Speaker 7>the Secretary of State. I would say that our family

0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:38.400
<v Speaker 7>tradition is we as a family, we go to midnight Mass.

0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 7>That's something that's very important to us. We celebrated together

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 7>because we want to keep what the purpose of Christmas is.

0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 1>The two of.

0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Them together, as they fly around on the blue and

0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:54.160
<v Speaker 2>white plane quoting Bible scripture to each other, should know

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:57.520
<v Speaker 2>that what they are a version of is the hosses

0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 2>on Marco Rubio's hand are the deaths of millions of

0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:04.160
<v Speaker 2>God's children.

0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:07.600
<v Speaker 1>He is the officer who shut down.

0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 2>USAID, and that instability, that death that's spreading evil hitois

0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 2>comes home here to America. We see Susie Wilds try

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 2>to explain that we'll no Trump's like an alcoholic in

0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:26.160
<v Speaker 2>a good way, because they have so many great qualities.

0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:30.120
<v Speaker 2>Susie Wilde has been heralded as some type of genius

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:35.320
<v Speaker 2>by the transactional access media. Access media like vanity fair

0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.760
<v Speaker 2>access media like the New York Times, and the way

0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:42.360
<v Speaker 2>it works is the reporters line up like ducks or

0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:46.960
<v Speaker 2>fish in a coy pond, looking for their droppings, looking

0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 2>for their nibbles, for their access, for the interviews. And

0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:54.000
<v Speaker 2>she Susie Wilds is a powerful player, and so she

0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:57.120
<v Speaker 2>sprinkles it out and she's hailed as a genius.

0:04:57.320 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Trump's ice maiden.

0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:02.359
<v Speaker 2>And man o man and is he love the stick

0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:06.039
<v Speaker 2>because he reads all those papers and he watches.

0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:06.400
<v Speaker 1>All the news.

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.720
<v Speaker 2>But like all of them, she's not too bright, and

0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 2>she's not very competent. What she is is a monster

0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:17.960
<v Speaker 2>and enable her for an evil cause, a broken woman.

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:23.839
<v Speaker 2>So her opinions about the obvious don't do anything other

0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:27.400
<v Speaker 2>than refute the notion that those of us who have

0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 2>the integrity, the character, a grit to oppose this evil

0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:33.360
<v Speaker 2>suffer from some type of derangement.

0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:34.120
<v Speaker 1>We don't.

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:38.039
<v Speaker 2>When you see this picture, be certain of this. They're

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:42.000
<v Speaker 2>the sick ones. Here's the scenes from Minneapolis. A pregnant

0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 2>woman dragged through the snow by ice thugs controlled from

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:47.799
<v Speaker 2>the White House through criminal actions.

0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.120
<v Speaker 8>We made our way to the center of the crowd

0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 8>and found a woman being held face down on the ground.

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:55.240
<v Speaker 8>People were screaming to let her go.

0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 2>We kept yelling, she's pregnant, She's pregnant, she's pregnant.

0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 5>They put their knees in her, and we kept telling

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:03.599
<v Speaker 5>them she can't breathe, let her up, Let her up.

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.600
<v Speaker 8>In the chaos, the woman who was handcuffed was suddenly

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:10.160
<v Speaker 8>being dragged by one arm as the angry crowd through

0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:12.440
<v Speaker 8>snowballs and screamed at the federal agent.

0:06:13.000 --> 0:06:15.839
<v Speaker 2>Look at these people as we come to Christmas time.

0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:19.200
<v Speaker 2>The worst of the worst, the worst assemblage of American

0:06:19.279 --> 0:06:21.960
<v Speaker 2>leaders in the history of the country on the eve

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 2>of disaster. This is a picture on the edge of

0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump's disastrous war at Venezuela. This is a picture

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 2>of death. The lines are funny because they're true, and

0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:36.880
<v Speaker 2>the denial is even funnier.

0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:39.160
<v Speaker 1>And the fact that the White.

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:43.000
<v Speaker 2>House melted down and all of the Cabinet secretaries were

0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:47.680
<v Speaker 2>commanded to release en mass and in unison a defense

0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:50.279
<v Speaker 2>of the idiocy is even better.

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:51.479
<v Speaker 1>But here's the deal.

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:55.560
<v Speaker 2>These are dangerous days, and America is led by imbeciles.

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.840
<v Speaker 1>How do we know? Well, they tell us every day

0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:02.200
<v Speaker 1>like here and here.

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:08.520
<v Speaker 2>And here, look at Marco Rubio, the architect of the

0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:10.960
<v Speaker 2>war in Venezuela.

0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Process as sick a fan.

0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:16.960
<v Speaker 2>This is an article in a magazine to prove something

0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:19.560
<v Speaker 2>a lot of us have been saying for a very

0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:20.280
<v Speaker 2>long time.

0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:23.560
<v Speaker 1>Trump is sick. The people around him are cynical.

0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:27.720
<v Speaker 2>But they are a unit, a team, a government, and

0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 2>they have immense power, and they're using that power for

0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:35.760
<v Speaker 2>terrible things. And they don't care because together they are

0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:39.920
<v Speaker 2>as rotten as it comes. Donald Trump and Susie Wiles

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:44.239
<v Speaker 2>are a perfect pair. What she is is an ant lydia.

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:48.560
<v Speaker 2>What she is is evil, just like Trump. And that's

0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 2>the morning. I'm Steve Schmidt. This is the morning I

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 2>invite you to join this community where I promise to

0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:59.720
<v Speaker 2>be honest, blunt and direct about what is happening in

0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:04.360
<v Speaker 2>this country. America is in crisis. Follow and subscribe to

0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:06.160

0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Thank you.
