Now, 54 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 2: as Crystal said, there was absolute chaos that erupted in 55 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 2: the White House breathing room after a story began to 56 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 2: develop that we brought everybody yesterday the revelation that a 57 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 2: Parkinson's expert had visited the White House some dozen times 58 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 2: in the last two years, and in one case met 59 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 2: with President Biden's official White House physician. Since that revelation, 60 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 2: the White House Press Corps began pressing the Press Secretary 61 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: Kaareane Jean Pierre. Why did this Parkinson's expert visit the 62 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 2: White House? This came after Kareem Jean Pierre lied to 63 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: the press corps about Biden having a medical examination after 64 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 2: the debate. 65 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 3: Here is what happened in that. 66 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 4: Exchange that he gets every year that we provide to all. 67 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 3: That's very basic question. 68 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 4: Wait wait, wait, wait a second, wait times, or at 69 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 4: least once in regards hold on a second, pot wait 70 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 4: no no, no, no, no, no, no wait a minute, come, Ed, 71 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 4: please a little respect here, please. 72 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 3: So every year. 73 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 4: Around the president's physical examination, he sees a neurologist. That's 74 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 4: three times, right, So I am telling you that he 75 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 4: has seen a neurologists three times while he has been 76 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 4: in this presidency. That's what I'm saying. I am telling 77 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 4: you that he has seen them three times. That is 78 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 4: what I'm sharing with you, right, So every time he 79 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 4: has a physical he has had to see a neurologists. 80 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 4: So that is answering that question. 81 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 3: No, it is, it is you're asking. 82 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 4: I also said to you, Ed, I also said to you, 83 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 4: for security reasons, we cannot share names.

We can't. 85 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 5: No one came here. 86 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 4: We cannot share we cannot share names of specialists. Broadly 87 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 4: from a dermatologist to a neurologists. We cannot share names. 88 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 4: There are security reasons we have to.

I cannot from here confirm any of 91 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 4: that because we have to keep their privacy. I think 92 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 4: they would appreciate that too. We have to give them. 93 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 4: We have to keep their privacy public. I hear you, guys, Guys, guys, 94 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 4: hold on a second. There's no reason to get back 95 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 4: and go back and forth with me in this aggressive way. 96 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 4: I missed around here about how information has been shared 97 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 4: with the press for what do you missed about what 98 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 4: he just asked about? What do you? And then every 99 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 4: time I come back and I answer the question that you, 100 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 4: guys as I never answered the question incorrectly. That is 101 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 4: not true. I was asked about a medical exam. I 102 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 4: was asked about a physical that was in the line 103 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 4: of question that I answered, and that is what the 104 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 4: special hast said. I do want to I just want 105 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 4: to take a step back for a second, because I 106 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 4: do take offense to what ED alluded to. You know, 107 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 4: come out here every day there's a press briefing and 108 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 4: we do our best to give you the information that 109 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 4: we have. 110 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 3: At the time. 111 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 4: That's what we do, and we understand the freedom of 112 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 4: the press. We respect the freedom of the press. You 113 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 4: heard me talk about this last week. I appreciate the 114 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 4: back and forth that we all have. It is I 115 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 4: try to respect you, and I hope we try to 116 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 4: respect me, and we literally do everything that we can. 117 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 4: My team does everything that we can to make sure 118 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 4: we get the answers to you. That's what we do. 119 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 4: And sometimes we disagree, sometimes we are not in agreement, 120 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 4: but you know what, that's democracy. That is what is 121 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 4: important to have that healthy back and forth. And so 122 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 4: to say that I'm holding information or allude to anything 123 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 4: else is not unfair. 124 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:18,799 Speaker 3: It is really really unfair. 125 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 4: I think people who are watching and have been watching 126 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 4: this briefing for this past week could say that we 127 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 4: are doing our best in this briefing to provide the 128 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 4: information that we have. And I will admit I will 129 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 4: be the first one to admit sometimes I get it wrong. 130 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 4: At least I admit that. At least I admit that, 131 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,119 Speaker 4: and sometimes I don't have the information and I will 132 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 4: always always admit that. 133 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 3: But I do take. 134 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 4: Offense to what was just happening at the beginning of 135 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 4: this briefing. 136 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 3: It's not okay. She takes offense, she takes greefice. She 137 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 3: is a liar. 138 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: At the previous press briefing, she said the president did 139 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 2: not have any medical checkup. Biden on a freaking donor call, 140 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 2: then says, by the way I talked to my doctor, 141 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 2: report like, hey, hold on a second. You said he 142 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 2: didn't meet with the doctor. It was a verbal check 143 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 2: in with his doctor. Really a check in about not 144 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 2: feeling good. That sounds like a medical checkup, because that's 145 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 2: the technical definition of the word. Now in this particular case, 146 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: Crystal I said, this is probably one of the most 147 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: bullshit answers in the history of Washington. The reason that 148 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: we know this is, let's put this up there on 149 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: the screen. This Parkinson's expert, whose name was on the 150 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 2: White House visitors log, was released publicly by the White 151 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 2: House under the transparency measures that have been put into place, 152 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 2: I believe by Congress, in which the White House has 153 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: then chooses to abide by. So they publicly released this 154 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: man's name, including who he was meeting with. The press 155 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 2: Corps then says, let's be very simple here, did this 156 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: man visit the White House in conjunction with the President's help. 157 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: That's it. 158 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 2: Did he visit as it relates to the President's health, 159 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: That's all we want to know. She says, for security reasons. 160 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 2: I cannot get into that. So let's be very clear here. 161 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 2: She says, for security reasons, Crystal, I cannot confirm even 162 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 2: this gentleman's name, even though the government has admitted that 163 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 2: this man visited the White House. Yeah, some eight times 164 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: in the last several years. And in addition that his 165 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 2: name is public, including who he was meeting with. So look, 166 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 2: if anything, they're not treating her badly enough. They should 167 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: be shouting her down. You are a liar, liar, there's 168 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: no other word for it. 169 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: His name was released in public visitor yet literally over Oh, 170 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: we can't release the name. That would be inappropriate to 171 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: release the name of a specialist. And how dare you right? 172 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: Take offense? And it's not fair, lady, And I love 173 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: how she is, like at least I admit when incorrect. Yeah, 174 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: once you get caught in a brazen lie, you have 175 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: to come out and clean it up. As Ed says. 176 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 6: There. 177 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: The amazing thing, too, is I watched this entire portion 178 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: of the press briefing with Korean John Ba and it 179 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 1: just goes on from there. I mean Kelly O'Donnell goes in, 180 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: or other reporters that go in as well, and you 181 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: put it together and it starts to look very ominous 182 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: by the way, the White House is now the White 183 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: House physician has now released a letter supposedly explaining these 184 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: visits eight over just the past number of months from 185 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: a Parkinson's doctor. We'll get to that in a moment, 186 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: But there's good reason why people are asking these questions. 187 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: And it's not just because we've now seen that this 188 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: Parkinson's specialist visited numerous times. We also have President Biden 189 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: exhibiting symptoms that experts say appear to be consistent potentially 190 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: with a Parkinson's diagnosis. Now, you always want to be 191 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: careful here. No one wants to diagnose someone remotely. But 192 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: also he's kind of lost the benefit of the doubt, 193 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: hasn't he. Like it's one thing if it's a private 194 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: person and you're just baselessly speculating about their health. This 195 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: is the President of the United States, him and his 196 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: staff been caught in a cover up of health condition. 197 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: So you do not give the benefit of the doubt 198 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: in this instance. So one article talk to a number 199 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: of experts. Here's what they had to say. Their conclusion was, 200 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: just listen, at the very least, he needs to be 201 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: examined something, an additional neurological exam something, by the way, 202 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: that he has absolutely refused to do. Now in multiple interviews. 203 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: We can put this up on the screen some of 204 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 1: the details here. So this is from Paul Campo's medical experts. 205 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 1: Biden needs to be evaluated for Parkinson's, he says. Since then, 206 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: I've spoken to several medical experts who believe the odds 207 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: are high Biden is suffering from some form of Parkinsonism, 208 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 1: the cluster of degenerative neurological conditions of which Parkinson's disease 209 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: is the best known. None of these experts are, of course, 210 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: reporting to make a formal diagnosis. What they're insisting on 211 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 1: is that it's deeply irresponsible not to give Biden the 212 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 1: sort of medical examination that'd be given to any ordinary 213 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: eighty one year old who had the evident symptoms he 214 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: is displaying. We can go on some of the details here. 215 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: I mean, this'll ring true for anyone who watched the 216 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: debate with Biden. According to these experts, Biden has been 217 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: exhibiting various classic symptoms, including a slowed walk, slight lurching, 218 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: a nurse show, and starting a step return. Flat face. 219 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: That's where his face when he has that like mouth agape, 220 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: expressionless thing, that's what they're talking about. There, a staring 221 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: look with diminished blinking same and a low rasped voice, 222 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: all occurring together. The pathologic elements seen fully aligning when 223 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: doctor has treated many Parkinson's cases told me, let's put 224 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: the next piece up on the screen. Kevin kelvin Chu, 225 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: who holds a chair in neurology the University of Michigan 226 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: Medical School, told me he has concerns about the neurologic 227 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: condition of both major candidates and that for President Biden, 228 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: I think Parkinson's disease would be the top concern given 229 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: the clips I've seen. Based on chats with minrologists and 230 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: movement disorder colleagues, they all agree as well. He added, 231 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: So again, it's not like this concern of Parkinson's is 232 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: just random. So when you take the symptoms plus the 233 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: visits plus the White House is totally preposterous, stonewalling and 234 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: pretending like there's some security concern that keeps you from 235 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: even mentioning this person's name. Yeah, you know, if this 236 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: was Donald Trump's White House, you know what conclusion would 237 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 1: be immediately drawn. Yes, you know what Democrats would be 238 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: saying about this. So for them to pretend like, oh, 239 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: there's nothing to see here and how dare you and 240 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: I take offense that you're even asking these questions is 241 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: so incredibly disgusting to me. Now I mentioned that letter, 242 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: we could put that up on the screen. This is 243 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: from the president's personal physician, who I also want to mention. 244 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: You'll recall under the Trump White House he had Ronnie 245 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: Jackson was his doctor, right, who again was this personal friend? 246 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: Not very credible. Guess what. Kevin O'Connor, the president's physician, 247 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: is a personal friend of the president long time, also 248 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: a business associate of his brother, So keep in mind 249 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: he has a conflict of interest in any case. His 250 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: claim in this letter, which you can read in full 251 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: if you'd like, is effectively that the neurologist slash Parkinson's expert, 252 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: who visited the White House many times, was there to 253 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: treat As a general neurologist, he was there to treat 254 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: other individuals who come to the White House Medical Clinic 255 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: for care, and that he was the neurologist who examined 256 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: President Biden for each of his annual physicals. So I guess, Sager, 257 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: maybe that's what they didn't want to admit, that President 258 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: Biden had seen a Parkinson's specialist. And he goes to 259 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: great Lengthson's letter to say, listen, he's not just about this, 260 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: he's a general neurologist. That's why he saw President Biden, 261 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: et cetera. But this is the cleanup that they're attempting 262 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: to do. 263 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 3: This mo the cleanup. 264 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 2: And by the way, this actually answers the question which 265 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 2: is the real scandal. Yes, the neurological Parkinson's expert met 266 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 2: with President Biden. Why did this particular expert come to 267 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 2: the White House only twenty twenty three onward and not previously? 268 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 7: Right? 269 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 3: Something change in that period. 270 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 2: Where even the okay, I'm not gonna say quack, mister 271 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connor, who again is a close family friend and 272 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 2: who at one time explored a deal with Jim Biden, 273 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 2: the President's brother, Why should I believe a word that 274 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: this man is saying? And look, I was there in 275 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 2: the briefing room for the whole Ronnie Jackson thing. And 276 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 2: to be honest, even Ronnie Jackson was more credible because 277 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 2: he at least was the physician to Barack Obama. Okay, 278 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 2: so we could say, all right, well, you know, we 279 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: didn't know at the time that he was actually a 280 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 2: secret Republican all along, and now he's a Republican member. 281 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 2: All I'm saying is that at the time when I 282 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: was there, you should have seen it. 283 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: I will never forget. 284 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: I came down into the basement afterwards where all the 285 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 2: reporters are afterwards, and they're like, he's a lion, pos 286 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 2: like blah blah blah, President's got heart disease. I don't 287 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 2: trust a man word that this man is saying, where. 288 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 3: Are you now? April Ryan. By the way, the lady 289 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 3: who she pressed them yesterday z not in the same 290 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 3: way that I. 291 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: Remember, was not as aggressive as editor at that time. 292 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. 293 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 2: And that's why drops to Ed O'Keefe, props to Kelly 294 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: and the rest of them, at least in the front row. 295 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 3: Zeke Miller as well. 296 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 2: I've criticized many of these folks, but his very first 297 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: question was, I want to talk about the White House's 298 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 2: credibility here because you basically lied to us about that 299 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 2: medical checkup. I think it's at this point where it's 300 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 2: so undeniable. Even if you want to run cover for him, 301 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 2: you can't. I mean, we are in a situation which 302 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: is genuinely unprecedented. We're having somebody who is this old 303 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 2: in the White House and so rapidly deteriorating, who is 304 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: also seeking another four years. And this is why it's 305 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: a terrifying question. Right now today, Crystal, just less than 306 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 2: a mile from where you and I are speaking, the 307 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 2: world's NATO leaders are gathered to continue fueling the war 308 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 2: in Ukraine, where President Biden will be meeting with Zelenski Macrone, 309 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 2: the new Prime Minister of the UK, to pump forty 310 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 2: billion dollars more into this conflict and presumably come up 311 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 2: with some game plan about how we're going to keep 312 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: this thing going on forever. Do you trust a man 313 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 2: like that today to be in that meeting. 314 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 3: Five years from now? What are we going to be 315 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 3: doing five years from now? 316 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 4: Now? 317 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: What is the world going to look like? This is 318 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 2: an urgent national security crisis. 319 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 3: Now as opposed. 320 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: No, that's that's terrifying. And you know, I think that 321 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: domestic policy basically has handed off to his advisors, like 322 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: I think the you know, puppet master theory when it's 323 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: you know when back when it was run Klaye, Now 324 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: it's Jeffreys Signs whatever. Like, I think they're running the 325 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: show there. Unfortunately, I think Biden is still running the 326 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: show on for it. It's only that he talks about, 327 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: you know, when he gets asked about his case for reelect. 328 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: It's just like NATO, NATO. NATO is the only thing 329 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: that he can think about or talk about. And he 330 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: may mention that he's purportedly trying weekly and meekly and 331 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: pathetically to get a ceasefire in Gaza. His foreign policy 332 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: instincts are stuck in a approximately nineteen seventy five Cold 333 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: War era. He's so weak and feckless. Now it's all 334 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: very clear why BB NANYAHUO has felt free to do 335 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: whatever the hell he wants to do, because what this 336 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: guy is going to stand up to me? Please? Please? 337 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: There was another aspect of this that I'm just so 338 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: sad for the country right now and what we become. 339 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: And I'm not just talking about our leaders because some 340 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: I mean you've got the Maga cults right. We've talked 341 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: plenty about that. This cultish behavior on the democratics democrats 342 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: part at the base level is utterly pathetic. So anyone's 343 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: reaction to that press briefing should be like, good, they're 344 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: finally pressuring them, thank god. And this lady just got 345 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: caught in a brazen lie. You know, I thought this 346 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: was supposed to be different from the Trump White House. 347 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: It's not. It's not okay. They should be given no 348 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt. They are just as brazen liars 349 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: as anyone who stood at the podium for Donald Trump was. 350 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: So let's be clear what Choby Bush? 351 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 3: Yeah? Correct, I mean, let's see it. 352 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: That's the thing you signed up for that job. You 353 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,640 Speaker 1: are signed up to be a paid liar in propagandas 354 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: to spare me or I'm so offended, get out of 355 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: here with that. But the reaction to this that I 356 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: saw so much, at least online, was how dare ed 357 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: ok he owes her an apology? Oh and this morning 358 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: when he posts yesterday or whatever it was that he 359 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: posted the letter that the White House put, where's your apology? Now? 360 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: Isn't it clear that she was in the right and 361 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: you were in the wrong. Are you kidding? Like what country? 362 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: Do you just want this to be a total authoritarian 363 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: nation where no one questions our dear leader. How pathetic 364 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: is that? How pathetic is that? It's so sad. And 365 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: you saw it too, in terms of like the way 366 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: that they just completely crushed any sort of democratic primary process. 367 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: They just went along with that. There were plenty who 368 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: were like, yeah, good, that should be that way. We 369 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: shouldn't have any democracy, all in the service of defeating 370 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. And now that it's clear they're going to 371 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: lose to Donald Trump, they're still like, yeah, but we 372 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: have to fall in line because of loyalty or something. 373 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: We'll be Goldberg in that sentiment as well. It's so 374 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: disgusting and pathetic to me, it's just sad. 375 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 3: It's just sad. 376 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, all I know is that a Parkinson's 377 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 2: expert is meeting and examining the president of the United 378 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: States that his close family friend is his doctor. And 379 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 2: I said this on our show yesterday. These people are 380 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 2: not stupid. You think they're gonna write down, yeah, he's 381 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,479 Speaker 2: got Parkinson's. They know they know that would like Foia, 382 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 2: never write it down. Oh, that would never happen before, right, Yeah, 383 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 2: it's almost it would never happen that a president is 384 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 2: getting injected with literal methamphetamine into his back, and that 385 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 2: we happened to just. 386 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 3: Doctor the records. That's never happened before in history. 387 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 2: Right, It's just like, come on, this is a tried 388 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 2: and true practice. You put cronies in a position. As 389 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 2: long as you cover up the records, you can basically 390 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 2: do whatever we want. 391 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 3: We didn't even find. 392 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 2: Out that Obama was cracked out on medafinil until like 393 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 2: ten years later, which I don't judge. That's fine, you know, 394 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 2: be my guest whenever you're traveling and you need a 395 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 2: little bit of a boost. But my point is just 396 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 2: that it took a decade, you know, to even figure 397 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 2: out what the prescription pattern under the Obama administration was. 398 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 3: Look, I hate to say it. 399 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 2: I hope he's still alive, but he could be long 400 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 2: dead by the time we even know, you know, whatever 401 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 2: actually was going on behind the scenes, like with John F. Kennedy, 402 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 2: like with many of the folks. Just look at his deterioration. 403 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 2: And this is the world's most stressful job. So all 404 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 2: I am saying is that it is very terrifying. The 405 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 2: White House has been caught in a brazen line. The 406 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 2: fact is is that even after this line of questioning, 407 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 2: they eventually came out and then just confirmed the worst suspicion, 408 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: which is, yeah, the Parkinson's expert did examine the President, 409 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 2: and he's examined him multiple times now, and he's meeting 410 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 2: with the president's personal physician, who himself is covering up 411 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 2: or at least in a good position to cover up 412 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 2: for the President if he wants to, and the scrutiny 413 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 2: is only now starting to kick in. My only wish 414 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 2: is that it had been many many years before. 415 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: Just ask yourself what these Democrats did be saying if 416 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: it was the same set of facts with Trump, if 417 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: he was exhibiting the symptoms, if he was meeting and 418 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: being tested by Parkinson's expert, if there was an attempt 419 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,479 Speaker 1: to completely stonewall any questions about that. And then it 420 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: was the personal physician, slash Crony who releases the letter 421 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: to try to explain away this damning set of facts. 422 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 1: And yet as we're about to discuss with you, it 423 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: looks like Democrats are staying the course. It really looks 424 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: at this point, like he's just gonna hang in there 425 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: and grind it down, as Dave Weigel said yesterday, and 426 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: it probably will be kind of like an Access Hollywood 427 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: moment where everybody shuts up, they pretend like they never 428 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: said anything, they never had any concerns, and tries to 429 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: move forward to doom in November is where we're headed. 430 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 2: The explosion of just sentiment now of watching Biden basically 431 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 2: evolve in a one week period into Donald Trump become. 432 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 3: The very thing that he allegedly hates is amazing. 433 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 2: Yesterday, while we were taping our show, Morning Joe decided 434 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 2: to go a little bit later, you know, on the air, 435 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 2: there's some questions apparently they're like, hey, why are they 436 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 2: here in this hour. They're not usually here, you know, 437 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 2: at this time. And it turns out that the President 438 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 2: decided to phone in to his favorite Mooring show, just 439 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 2: like Donald Trump did over the years whenever he would 440 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 2: call into Fox and Friends. 441 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: You literally called in the Morning Joe too, and you 442 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: also called the makeupfty. 443 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 2: Accurately talked about Mika Brazinski's facelift. But whatever Biden has 444 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 2: called in, he is exhibiting the same behavior of basically 445 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 2: just ranting and raving at the screen while Mika. 446 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 3: And Joe try to massage what he's doing. 447 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 2: But my personal favorite line is when Biden admits straight 448 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 2: up that he is reading basically off of prepared notes 449 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 2: while he is on live television. 450 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 3: Let's take a listen to that. 451 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 8: The American public is not going to move away from 452 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 8: me as an average voter. And again, I'm here for 453 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,360 Speaker 8: two readers, pou one to rebuild the economy for hard 454 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 8: work and middle class people. Give everybody a shot. It's 455 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 8: a straight shot. Everybody gets a fair chance. Number one, 456 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 8: number two.

Why why I'm getting so frustrated but by 459 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 8: the elite. Now I'm not talking about you guys, but 460 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 8: about the elite in the party who they know so 461 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 8: much more. But then in these guys, I don't think 462 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 8: I should run against me, announced the president challenge. 463 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 9: Man the convention said, well, as long as I did 464 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 9: the best I could do. That that's the most important thing. 465 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 9: That's caused Democrats concern who believe that losing is not 466 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 9: an option. What would you say to those who were 467 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 9: concerned by that answer. 468 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 8: It's not an option. And I'm not lost. I haven't lost. 469 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 8: I beat him last time, I'll beat him this time. 470 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 8: And this is the guy who, look we talk about debates, 471 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 8: look at his performance at debates.

And this is 510 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: why because even whenever he's reading from his list of notes, 511 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 2: he sounds completely incoherent. 512 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,239 Speaker 1: Yea is shocking, That's the thing. And I just, I mean, 513 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: I just have to laugh at this point because I 514 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: feel like I'm taking crazy bills. Yes after this interview, 515 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: the number of Democrats that were like, he sounded so strong, 516 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: it's amazing. Creene Jean Pierre at the podium yesterday. It 517 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: was a powerful performance, Like did you listen to the 518 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 1: same interview. Okay, he sounded a little more lively than 519 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: the debate because they got him in his good hour 520 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 1: of the day. He's got aids sitting next to him, 521 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 1: he's got a list that he's reading off of, and 522 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: he's still wildly incoherent. This is as good as it gets. Guys, 523 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: good luck, good luck. And we played to the clip 524 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: yesterday of what he was like four years ago, when 525 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: there were already questions about his age and ability. The 526 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: decline has been astonishing, and it has shocked international leaders 527 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 1: who were leaking to the Wall Street Journal. We're going 528 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: to be back in town this week. We'll see what 529 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: they have to say about him. You know, you have 530 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: someone within the White House who leaked to the New 531 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 1: York Times. They don't think he's up to the job. 532 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: And aging is not a linear process, whether he has 533 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: something like Parkinson's or not. We have seen the decline 534 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: over four years, another four years, you can think of 535 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: an exponential decline over occurring over that time period. It's 536 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: just complete insanity to go forward with this man. But 537 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 1: you have what he did in this interview. And he 538 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,239 Speaker 1: put on a letter too. I think we may have 539 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: the letter we can put up on the screen. Yeah, 540 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 1: put the next one up on the screen. House. So 541 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: put on a letter to Congressional Democrats saying, despite all 542 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: the speculation, the pres and else where, I'm firmly committed 543 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: to staying this race, to running this race to the 544 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: end into beating Donald Trump. As many people have said, 545 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: I will not be the first one. He has done 546 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: nothing to actually alleviate the deep concerns and terror of 547 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 1: a majority, I think a large majority of the Democratic caucus, 548 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: both in the House in the set. He's done nothing 549 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: to alleviate those concerns. But he has been effective in 550 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: making it clear to them that you know, he is 551 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: not going to go out easily, and they have to 552 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: actually come at him and mount some sort of an 553 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: attempted coup to try to get him out of there, 554 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: it's not going to happen. It's basically like a murder 555 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: suicide pack. These are not courageous people. Sorry, I wish 556 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: they were, but they're not. By and large, these are 557 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,719 Speaker 1: a bunch of cowards who really have been exposed as 558 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 1: they certainly don't care all that much if Donald Trump 559 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,400 Speaker 1: gets reelected. Don't take a word they say seriously from 560 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: here on out about democracies on the ballot, Project twenty 561 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: twenty five or whatever. They clearly don't really care whether 562 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: or not he gets re elected. They're more interested in 563 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: maintaining their own careers, their own good standing in the party. 564 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: And then a bunch of the would be presidential contenders 565 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: they're like, okay, it works not better for me. If 566 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: Biden and Kamala Harris get their asses kicked in November, 567 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: then she's wiped clean off this late and I can 568 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: make my run in twenty twenty eight. Gretchen Whitmer, Gavin Newsome, Rocanna, 569 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: plenty of others out there who were eyeing twenty twenty 570 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: eight and thinking, you know what, for me personally in 571 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: my career, it works sound good if Joe Biden and 572 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris get their asses kicked this fall, and. 573 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 2: They're probably right, that's a crazy thing on it for 574 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 2: their good year devil, they're right, But for the country, well, 575 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 2: you know, but they ostensibly serve I don't know, maybe 576 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 2: you're just like Donald Trump. 577 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 3: Little bit of narcissism, right. 578 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: And one of the thing I want to say about this, yea, 579 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: is I think that their political calculus is dead wrong. 580 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: I agree, because if slash, when Biden and Kamala do 581 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: lose this fall in astonishing fashion, or even if let's 582 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: say by some fluke, which I don't say is impossible, 583 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: they get elected and we then have four years of 584 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: watching this astonishing decline and Joe Biden potentially dying in office. Sorry, 585 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: that's the point that we're at. You think this is 586 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: going to reflect well on people who told the line 587 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: for him during this time, No, it's not. You're going 588 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: to look like the people who were pushing us into 589 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: I Rock War. You're going to look like all of 590 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: the people who got things dead wrong in history. That's 591 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: what you're going to look like. And it's not going 592 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: to be good for your career, regardless of whatever little 593 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: clever calculations you think that you're doing right now in 594 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: the moment the people at the courage to come out 595 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: and say this is insane, this is done accepted people 596 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: like Dean Phillips I disagree with on a lot that 597 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: he was dead right on this one. Those are the 598 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: people who are going to look good. They're going to 599 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: be the ones who have their careers bolstered if that's 600 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: the thing you care about, and you are going to 601 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: be embarrassed and humiliated and hopefully drummed down a public life. Yes, 602 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: for standing by this man and subjecting the country to this, I'm. 603 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 2: Glad you set that up because my prediction is that 604 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 2: Dean Phillips's run, while quixotic at the time, will go 605 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 2: down like Barack Obama's two thousand and two Iraq War speech. 606 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 2: Nobody in two thousand and two gave a shit what 607 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 2: Barack Obama had to say. In fact, there was only 608 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 2: one camera that recorded that speech about Barack Obama. 609 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 3: But when two thousand and eight rolled around, what happened? 610 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 2: Crystal, you were there, You remember that was the reason 611 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 2: he became the nominees because he used it against Hillary 612 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 2: and against the failed candidacy of John Kimmerbilick. 613 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 3: See this whole flip flop policy and all that stuff 614 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 3: in the past. 615 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 2: It served us badly. I was there from the very beginning. 616 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 2: I can tell you that that was the number one 617 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 2: reason that he beat Hillary Clinton in that primary. I believe, 618 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 2: and I'll put the marker out here. I think Dean 619 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 2: is going to be the front runner in twenty twenty 620 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: eight that reason. 621 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 3: I think it was a smart play. It will go. 622 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 3: Look also, he's filthy rich. 623 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 2: It's never hurt before, right, So you can run those 624 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 2: ads as much as you want. Luckily for him, it 625 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 2: happened in the Internet age. He's got plenty of things 626 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 2: that are out there that he can point to. Julian Castro, 627 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 2: he could try as well. 628 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 3: Be like Steve I. 629 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: Tried to tell you he was the canary and the 630 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: gold line. 631 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 3: And the thing is Democrats want to win, they know. 632 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: And so when Biden and the rest of the elites 633 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 2: who stayed silent or who were complicit, Bernie Sanders, AOC, 634 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 2: Johann Omar, all of these people have now come out 635 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 2: and publicly back to Biden. Why should anyone take you seriously? 636 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 2: Gavin s Wretchen, Yeah, bro, I mean all of these folks. So, 637 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 2: like you said, the time for courage is now, because otherwise, 638 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 2: if you really want to set yourself up, then I 639 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 2: think it's a big mistake. So Dean, I'm on the 640 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 2: Dean twenty twenty eight train. I'm not saying I like 641 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 2: or with him or whatever. Maybe I don't know. 642 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 3: Listen what he'll do. 643 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: He took a stance that was genuinely courageous. 644 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 3: Yes, and he was. 645 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: Remember how they were leaving all that and they were kicked. 646 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: They were leaking all that nasty stuff about him to Axios, 647 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: remember that report. He took a real short term hit 648 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: because he truly there's no other explanation for it. Then 649 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 1: he truly believed. He was like, this man is too 650 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: old and he's declined, is too advanced. This is not 651 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: going to work out well. Put himself out there. He 652 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: took it political hit, and he deserves a lot of 653 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: credit for that, even though I also, I mean, you 654 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: guys know, I've debated him. I disagree with him and 655 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: a lot of things, especially Israel, but he deserves credit 656 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: for that courage. Today I mentioned this at the top. 657 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: It is a pivotal day. You have the House and 658 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: the Senate back in town. They've been away. They're all 659 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: back now. Both the House and the Senate Democratic caucuses 660 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: are meeting today, and uh so we'll see if the 661 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: damn holds or the damn breaks. I have to tell 662 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: you where we stand this morning. It looks very much 663 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: like the dam was holding. President Biden met with the 664 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: Congressional Black Caucus. I mean, that's the other thing I'm 665 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: only picked up on this yesterday is they've tried to 666 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: really racialize this and make it like, oh, well, black 667 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: people want President Biden, and it's just these white elites 668 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: that want him gone, which, let's just be clear, majority 669 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: of black voters even before the debate, thought that he 670 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: was too old to serve. So don't buy that nonsense. 671 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: Definitely don't buy the Legoh, it's just the elites that 672 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: want him out. There are some elites that want him out. 673 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: We had one of them on the show yesterday, Abigail Disney. 674 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: But the truth of the matter is, which ironically f 675 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 1: Jake Tapper pointed out yesterday, the elites are finally catching 676 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: up to where the voting public has long been. Even 677 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: before the debate, you had some seventy percent of Americans 678 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: who said this man was too old to serve. So 679 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: you finally have the elites forced to admit what has 680 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: been obvious to most of the country all the way along. 681 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: But I digress to go back to the original point. 682 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: You know, I think Democrats have become too scared to 683 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: mount any sort of real opposition him. It looks really 684 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: like you had a bunch of people come on yesterday're like, oh, 685 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: I have concerns, he's got to prove himself, but not 686 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: taking a firm position. You add many more like AOC 687 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,879 Speaker 1: like ilhan Omer and others who came out and said 688 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 1: I'm with him. He's the guy. We're sticking by him. 689 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,720 Speaker 1: Hakeem Jeffries. This was also very important, saying I've always 690 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: been with Joe, I'm still with Joe, and so I 691 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,919 Speaker 1: think he's probably managed to get through this moment. We'll 692 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: see how his big boy press conference goes. Is they 693 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 1: were discussing it, Yes, they're both. John Kirby and Koreeen 694 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: jump here called his press conference Thursday a quote big 695 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: boy press conference, which is so humiliated. I don't even 696 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,839 Speaker 1: know what to say about it. But there I do 697 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: think that there is an access Hollywood parallel here, which 698 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: is sager. I wonder what you make of this. The 699 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: assumption has been that now that the press corps and 700 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: Democrats have said these things, they can't be unsaid that 701 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: now every interaction is going to be put under a 702 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: micro scope. You could have another bad performance for Biden 703 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: where there's another round of freakouts and defecting, et cetera. 704 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that that's the case, because I think 705 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: it's more like after Trump survived Access Hollywood, then people 706 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: on the Republican side kept their mouths shut more. 707 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 3: That's right. 708 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: They realize, all right, well he got through it last time, 709 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 1: so I guess he's going to get through it again, 710 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,720 Speaker 1: and they just fell in line. I think, at least 711 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: for Democrats and probably for the media as well, that's 712 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: more likely. The direction we go in is that they 713 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: the further away from the debate we get, the more 714 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,280 Speaker 1: they forget how bad it was, the more they pretend 715 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: they never said the things that they said, and they 716 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: just pushed forward with the plan, because. 717 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 2: Look, it's a gamble, the gambling. Ever, by the way, 718 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 2: the Access Hollywood won, I'll I'm not going to defend it, 719 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 2: but I'll just say the Republican elites at that time 720 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 2: they thought they were going down to a historic loss. 721 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 2: So what do you do. You try and preempt it, 722 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 2: and you call it I ended up being the bad gamble, 723 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 2: and it was definitely wrong in terms of their own 724 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 2: political futures. That said, if you were right and Trump 725 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 2: did go down to historic loss, they would all look 726 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 2: like geniuses, wouldn't they, and they would use that as ammunition. 727 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 2: Now the lesson, I think for a lot the thing 728 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 2: is too is And this is where I wonder what 729 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 2: you think. I don't think the Democratic elites are playing 730 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 2: that calculus. 731 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 3: I think they're just cowards. 732 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 2: Mark Warner was like, he's organizing a meeting behind the scenes, 733 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 2: and then Biden is like, oh, he's a good man. 734 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,399 Speaker 2: It leaks, he cancels the meeting. You're just a coward, dude. 735 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 2: That's not calculus. You're just scared. Jakeem jeffries behind the scenes, 736 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 2: organizing calls, blah blah blah. Last night he comes out 737 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 2: and he says, I support the president. Even Chuck Schumer. 738 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 2: He comes out and yesterday and he goes, I support you, 739 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 2: I'm backing Joe, Yeah, something like that. These are not 740 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 2: full throated endorsements. It's just the act of cowardice, of 741 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: the path dependence and the recognition that, look, we don't 742 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 2: have a choice because Biden is gonna not gonna drop out. 743 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 3: He's basically staying in. 744 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 2: By the way, can we put a seven please up 745 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 2: on the screen, because this just shows you too how 746 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 2: full of it Joe Biden is on that call. When 747 00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 2: he or on the MSNBC interview, he blasted democratic elites. 748 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 2: The very next thing he did is he called a 749 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,280 Speaker 2: bunch of donors and took questions. 750 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:07,320 Speaker 3: So keep that in mind. 751 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 2: Joe Biden has now taken more questions from donors and 752 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 2: people donating big money than the US Press Corps and 753 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 2: who have had to wait. Now what, So Thursday will 754 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: be the first time that we finally get to ask 755 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 2: questions of the president in a public setting, allegedly solo. 756 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 2: By the way, stay tuned for this. I believe it 757 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 2: will be straight up rigged. And what I mean by 758 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 2: that is that, as I understand it, the credentials have 759 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 2: already been issued for the press conference very early. That 760 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 2: usually doesn't happen. You usually do credentials like a day 761 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 2: or two before something like that. From the inside, just 762 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 2: what I can offer. That also means that the White 763 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 2: House can restrict any yahoos like yours, truly from being 764 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 2: able to sign up if they don't want to, and 765 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 2: then they can pre screen and talk to every single 766 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 2: person who's going to ask a question and say Okay, 767 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 2: you're up. President Biden will then have a list of 768 00:37:55,840 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 2: those people, people like CBS News, at O'Keefe, AP Reuters. 769 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 3: I'm going to give them that. 770 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 2: I will give them the benefit of the doubt and 771 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 2: hope and assume that those people, because the moment is 772 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 2: so extraordinary, they're going to override their previous biases and 773 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 2: they're going to ask him tough questions. But the idea 774 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 2: of the free flowing presser, the way that Trump was, 775 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 2: where genuinely anybody who had their hands up might have 776 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 2: gotten called on, that's over and I think that Biden 777 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,320 Speaker 2: it's going to be very tightly controlled. 778 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 8: Sure. 779 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 2: And the other thing is is that you know how 780 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,320 Speaker 2: long is it going to be? President Eisenhower used to 781 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:33,240 Speaker 2: do two hour press conferences routinely. I mean thirty minutes, 782 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 2: forty five minutes. Do you know Biden he can filibuster. 783 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 2: Let's say you take four questions and you take ten 784 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 2: minutes to answer every single one. That's a big boy 785 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 2: press conference, right, So there's many different ways that we 786 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 2: can rig this thing, you know. And I've seen it 787 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,359 Speaker 2: all happen before. I saw the Trump people try and 788 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,720 Speaker 2: do it. But under Biden, I'm watching this very closely 789 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:52,919 Speaker 2: and I'm keeping my ear to the ground about what's 790 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 2: going on. 791 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: Well, and there's a reason why the Big Boy Press 792 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: conference isn't happening till Thursday. Yeah, right, tick tick tick. 793 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: And the meanwhile, they've you know, kind of outflanked some 794 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 1: of the detractors. They got the Congressional Black Caucus fully 795 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: behind them, They've got Jim Kleiburn, and they've gotvered standers, 796 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: and they've got AOC, and they've really they've really made 797 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,359 Speaker 1: a push to scare people, not to convince them that 798 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: Biden is up to the task, no one really believes that, 799 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: but to scare them with regards to their own careers 800 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 1: of what the consequences would be for coming out. I 801 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: think it's by and large working. I mean, you still have, 802 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 1: like I said, you still have people coming out. You 803 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: had a Congressman Adam Smith go public yesterday saying that 804 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't think Biden's the right person. You had you 805 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: had Sharon Brown in Ohio expressing a lot of concerns, 806 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 1: and Cloba Shark expressing a lot of concerns, but not 807 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 1: going so far as to say that he needs to 808 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: step aside. But I do think that their plan is 809 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: basically working. And so by the time you get to 810 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: Thursday of this week, you will have had even more 811 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,720 Speaker 1: Democrats close ranks. And so even if it is a catastrophe, 812 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 1: which even with it pre screen rigged whatever God knows, 813 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: that could still be a total complete catastrophe, it may 814 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 1: be too late at that. 815 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 2: Here's another easy way to rig it, because the press 816 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 2: conference is on the heels of the NATO summit, which 817 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 2: is happening here in Washington. So what do you do. 818 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 2: You come up there, Let's say you make a big 819 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 2: announcement on Ukraine. Well, now you're kind of an idiot 820 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 2: if you don't also ask about what's going on with Ukraine. Right, 821 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 2: So now we take some of our press conference and 822 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 2: we just let the policy override. Let's say fifteen out 823 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 2: of the one hour. Well, now we just took one 824 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 2: fourth of the entire time. And here's another trick that 825 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 2: I've seen them play before. It's called the two and two. 826 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 2: So what he'll do is maybe he's calling it solo. 827 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 2: We'll see, maybe he pulls in Emmanuel Macron. Now, oh, 828 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 2: the French reporters get to ask some questions. You think 829 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 2: the French care about what's going on with Joe Biden. 830 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 2: They're gonna ask Macron about whatever is going on in 831 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 2: the parliament. And so Biden sits there and then the 832 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,879 Speaker 2: last Biden some stupid question which the foreign press usually does, 833 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,879 Speaker 2: be like do you still support France? And He's like, yes, 834 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 2: France is our easy Now I got another question box 835 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 2: that's checked. So there's all these different ways that were 836 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 2: watching for and the more that you delay. Now you've 837 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 2: got Hakim on the record, you got Chuck Schumer on 838 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,240 Speaker 2: the record. Imagine if he had gone on the record 839 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 2: the day after that debate and it was a disaster, Well, 840 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 2: then Hakeem Jeffreys and Chuck Schumer. 841 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 3: Are in a much more untenable position. 842 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 2: So I think he's going to write it out and 843 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 2: I mean, this is just craziness, it's just straight it's 844 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 2: absolute insanity. 845 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 3: What's happening. I still cannot believe he's actually running for 846 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 3: another term. It's just shocking. 847 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: It is utter madness, and we are all here to 848 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: witness it. 849 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:32,879 Speaker 2: At the same time, as we take a little bit 850 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 2: more of a look at the media, we wonder why 851 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,320 Speaker 2: is Biden clinging to power? Who out there could credibly 852 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 2: continue to support him? Well, Whoopy Goldberg, some of the 853 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 2: other women at the view are showing just how much 854 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 2: that mindset still pervades quite a bit of the elite commentariat. 855 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 2: Here's Whoopy saying she would still support Biden even if 856 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 2: he pooped his own pants. 857 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 3: Let's take a lesson. 858 00:41:55,239 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 7: I don't care if he's pooped his pants. I don't 859 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 7: care if he can't put a sentence together. Show me 860 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 7: he can't do the job, and then I'll say, Okay, 861 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 7: maybe it's time to go now. He had a bad 862 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 7: night the first time that he went out and debated 863 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 7: with Kamila Harris, and everybody wanted him to quit that 864 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 7: and say you can't talk to women like this, or 865 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 7: you're doing this wrong, you're doing that wrong. He came 866 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 7: back said, you know what, I got it and gave 867 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 7: four years. So, yeah, I have poopy days all the time. 868 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 7: I step in so much pool you can't even imagine. Now, 869 00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 7: I'm not running the world, but I don't know anybody 870 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 7: who doesn't step in stuff at some point. So I'm 871 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 7: just simply saying, there are two debates, and if he 872 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 7: can't do what he needs to do for the second debate, 873 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 7: I'll join any crew that says get rid of him, 874 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 7: but loyalty to me. If you are doing the job. 875 00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 7: I might not like everything you're doing. I don't like 876 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 7: it all, but I'm gonna stand behind you. Let those 877 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 7: guys stand behind the guy who should have been the 878 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 7: person people were talking about saying, yeah, Biden had a 879 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 7: bad day, but this guy couldn't tell the truth if 880 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:12,879 Speaker 7: it's split his lip. 881 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 10: Joe Biden is the first one that says I'm slower. 882 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 10: I don't debate as well as I do I did, 883 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 10: I'm eighty one years old. It seems worse than that, okay, 884 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 10: But he's the first one to say he's not the same. 885 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 10: Just look at my record of a. 886 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 5: Polomst litigate the case against Trump the way that we 887 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 5: saw the vice president. 888 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 2: There. 889 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: That is the difference. 890 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 5: And there's a reason Donald Trump is actually not out 891 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:35,240 Speaker 5: there shouting about the debate. 892 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:38,360 Speaker 1: He knows that Joe Biden will lose to him. He 893 00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: is afraid Advice President Harrett. 894 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:45,320 Speaker 7: Here's the actual also real truth. You know, it doesn't 895 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 7: matter what we say should be happening. It's going to 896 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 7: come down to one or the other. 897 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 3: Right, various student analysis. 898 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 2: There At the end, Anna Navarro saying, well, he's the 899 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 2: first to say that he doesn't do well. But look, 900 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: that is the perfect example of the whole like Biden, 901 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 2: like the same ladies who are accusing people of being 902 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 2: in a cult. That's what being in a cult looks like. 903 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 2: I believe in loyalty. I would vote for him. I 904 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 2: don't care if he pooped his pants. You also shouted 905 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 2: this out. They're like, I'll look for the next debate. 906 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 2: The next debate in September. It's after the DNC. 907 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 3: There's nothing you can do at that time. 908 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: It's it's before the election. Body knows, yeah, of course 909 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:23,879 Speaker 1: she knows. 910 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, run off the clock. 911 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. She actually even directly makes the comparison. She says, 912 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 1: I need to have loyalty the way that the other 913 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 1: side has loyalty to Trump. She actually directly says that 914 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: if you listen to what she's talking about, like the 915 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: other guy they should have should have been talking about, 916 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 1: we need to have that same kind of loyalty. It's like, Okay, 917 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 1: that where that's where you are, and listen. I don't 918 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 1: share this analysis, but I can respect someone who says, listen, 919 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: if it is Trump and Biden, I think Biden is 920 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 1: the lesser of evil of the two. I support more 921 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 1: the direction of the demoocratic Party. I'm voting for the 922 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,879 Speaker 1: entire administration, and these are terrible choices, but I got 923 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: to do what I gotta do. Okay, I think that's 924 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,959 Speaker 1: a reasonable argument to make. But to pretend like, first 925 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 1: of all, there's no other options available right now, to 926 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,399 Speaker 1: pretend like your priority is beating Donald Trump, but you're 927 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:20,400 Speaker 1: sticking with Joe Biden, To pretend like you don't have 928 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 1: any credible doubts right now that he can't do the 929 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 1: job today, as WHOOPI Goldberg says, and to set the 930 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:31,879 Speaker 1: bar at even if he poops his pants. I don't care, 931 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:36,760 Speaker 1: Like it's just an incredible commentary of where we are 932 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 1: as a nation right now, what a sad, declining, dying empire, 933 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 1: that the standard we have for our presidents is like, 934 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,399 Speaker 1: you could even poop your pants and I don't care. 935 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 1: This is still what we're going to do or we're 936 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,760 Speaker 1: going to fall in line. We're gonna have loyalty, because 937 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:57,239 Speaker 1: that's what matters, loyalty to this man who thinks he's 938 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: some like God king over commit to what might be 939 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 1: best for the country according to your values. I don't know, 940 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 1: it's just it's just sad, okay, Alissa Fair actually that's 941 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 1: her name, right, He's aware actually speaking some truth there 942 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 1: too about how Trump has been pretty quiet because he 943 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: doesn't want Biden to drop out of the raten This 944 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 1: is working out perfect for him, for him to be 945 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 1: hobbled and pathetic and unable to even barely hobble around 946 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 1: the country to campaign, but still hanging in there strong 947 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: based on his ego and his crackhead son. This is 948 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: perfect for Donald Trump. 949 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, if we continued, you know, down this road, 950 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 2: this idea of loyalty and all of that, it's for 951 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 2: what reason Biden is in a worse position for a 952 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 2: Democrat since two thousand. 953 00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 3: George W. Bush is the last person beating Democrats this 954 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 3: badly in the polls. And that's not me. 955 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 2: That's CNN's Harry Enton, who fact checks Biden's interview and 956 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,480 Speaker 2: statements where he's like, actually, I'm in a better pasoling 957 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 2: position than ever before. Don't believe the polls, my internals 958 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 2: show something different. 959 00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 5: Take a listen right now, Donald Trump believe it's in 960 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,840 Speaker 5: an act of national polls by about three percentage points. 961 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 5: If you go back four years ago, at this point, 962 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 5: Joe Biden was ahead by nine points. This right now 963 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 5: don't look anything like what we saw four years ago. 964 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 5: At this point, I then decided to take it a 965 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 5: step further. What was Biden's worst twenty twenty polling position. 966 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,800 Speaker 5: He was ahead by four points, which basically matched what 967 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,840 Speaker 5: he ended up beating Donald Trump by in the national 968 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:26,240 Speaker 5: popular vote. So this three point advantage for Donald Trump 969 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 5: is Donald Trump's best position versus Joe Biden, whether you 970 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 5: include the polls this year or you include the polls 971 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 5: last cycle. The idea that the polls underestimated Joe Biden 972 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:41,919 Speaker 5: last time around, simply put, does not hold any water. 973 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 5: Mister Burnam, who outperformed their July national polls. This is 974 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 5: major elections during the Trump era. We can start in 975 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 5: the midterms right. Take a look here. This is a 976 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,280 Speaker 5: twenty twenty two midterm. This is a generic congressional ballot. 977 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 5: In fact, Republicans were underestimated by a point. They outperformed 978 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 5: their July polls and the actual result by a percent points. 979 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,280 Speaker 5: You go back to twenty eighteen, Democrats did outperform their polls, 980 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,360 Speaker 5: but just by point. Basically, the polls were right on 981 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 5: at this particular point in the midterm elections. We talk 982 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 5: about the presidential race last time around, Donald Trump actually 983 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 5: did better in the results than his July polls by 984 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 5: five points. You go back to twenty sixteen, you see 985 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 5: something very similar. That is, the July polls actually underestimated 986 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:24,360 Speaker 5: Donald Trump. He outperformed his July polls. So the idea 987 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 5: in the Trump era that the polls have underestimated Democrats, 988 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 5: whether it be in a Joe Biden matchup, whether it 989 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 5: be a matchup against Hillary Clinton, whether it be in 990 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 5: the mid trumps, at least in the national polling that 991 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 5: right now shows Donald Trump in his strongest position, simply put, 992 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 5: is not true. If anything, the polls have underestimated Republicans 993 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 5: during the Trump era, especially in the presidential races in 994 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 5: twenty sixteen and in twenty trump on. 995 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's just take that very clearly, you know, 996 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:52,839 Speaker 2: and this crystal, this is what the rational look. There 997 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 2: are a few what let's say, like five maybe six 998 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 2: House Democrats who've actually come out and call for him 999 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 2: to step down. What I find amazing is it's not 1000 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:04,640 Speaker 2: not ilhan Omar, aoc Rokana, any squad people who have 1001 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 2: legitimate policy beefs. It's like normy Democrats from like Minnesota 1002 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 2: or Washington, and. 1003 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:13,879 Speaker 3: They're like, yeah, they're like, I just want to win. 1004 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 2: I like Biden, but I don't think he's very He's 1005 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,839 Speaker 2: well poised to win. Why are they more rational and 1006 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,280 Speaker 2: courageous frankly being able to look at this political. 1007 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 3: Case than illan Omar, Like what is happening here? 1008 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,400 Speaker 1: I mean, okay, here's my best attempt at explain it. 1009 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,760 Speaker 1: Number One, if you're a centrist, you have less fear 1010 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: of being like excised from the party because there isn't 1011 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 1: this like ideological war on you. So there is that, 1012 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 1: But they still deserve credit, you know, the anti Craigs 1013 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:41,919 Speaker 1: of the world, Adams Becif. But they still deserve credit 1014 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 1: for coming out because it still does obviously take some 1015 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: courage to do, especially at this stage. I think there's 1016 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:52,960 Speaker 1: some like forty chess thought going on with the Bernie's 1017 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 1: and the aocs and whatever of like, well, we don't 1018 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:57,600 Speaker 1: want to be the ones because they really hate us 1019 00:49:57,600 --> 00:49:59,959 Speaker 1: and distrust us. We don't want to make this ideological. 1020 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: And I also think that there's a careerist move of like, well, 1021 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 1: you know, if he does drop out, it's not like 1022 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 1: we're going to get a candidate that is ideologically aligned 1023 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 1: with us. We're gonna ge Kamala Harris, who we also 1024 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, don't really care for. So maybe it's better 1025 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: we just let Trump win and then, you know, try 1026 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: to get behind a more lefty candidate in twenty twenty eight. 1027 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 1: But I think it's sad. I think it's pathetic. I 1028 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 1: think it lacks total courage and integrity. And here's the 1029 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,200 Speaker 1: other thing. It's like you don't have to say anything 1030 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: right to come out affirmatively like AOC did, like ilhan 1031 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: Omar did. Bernie Sanders has been Joe Biden's like biggest defender. 1032 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 1: I think with him it also comes down he's always 1033 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 1: personally liked Joe. He's got this soft spot for him. 1034 00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 1: He couldn't attack him in the primary in twenty twenty, 1035 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 1: so I think that's part of it for him, Like 1036 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,239 Speaker 1: Joe was nice to him back in his early days 1037 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 1: in the Senate or whatever that I don't know, but 1038 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 1: it's pathetic. It's utterly pathetic that these are the people 1039 00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 1: are supposed to be, you know, the opposition, the adversarial 1040 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 1: faction within the Democratic Party, and they turn out to 1041 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 1: be the greatest boot liquors. Amazing and amazing. 1042 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look at the rhetoric of Adam Smith. 1043 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 2: Adam this is a normal guy. He's from Washington, he's 1044 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,280 Speaker 2: been Congress for a long time. He's a high ranking Democrat. 1045 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 2: It's a freaking Financial Services Committee. People in DC know 1046 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 2: who the hell he is. Listen to the way he 1047 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,240 Speaker 2: articulates the case against Biden. Let's take a listen. 1048 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 6: Well, look, I think he should step aside. I think 1049 00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,800 Speaker 6: it's become clear that he's not the best person to 1050 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 6: carry the Democratic message. And here's the thing. We have 1051 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 6: an incredibly strong message and record to run on, and all, 1052 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,439 Speaker 6: you know, respect to the president, he's done a great job. 1053 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 6: The President has shown he is not capable of delivering 1054 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 6: that message. Is it an effective way? 1055 00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:42,280 Speaker 5: Just because I shouldn't say, just because that ninety minute 1056 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,239 Speaker 5: debate was a lot, but is this based entirely on 1057 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:45,800 Speaker 5: that event? 1058 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 8: No? 1059 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,960 Speaker 6: No, what there was concerns leading up to it in 1060 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 6: the terms of the president's ability to deliver a message, 1061 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 6: and it hasn't gotten better since the debate. 1062 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:56,279 Speaker 2: That's it, super basic, right, Yeah, we respect you. You know, 1063 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 2: it's like what abagail do? 1064 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 3: Isn't he? 1065 00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 2: We thank you for all the work you've done. We're 1066 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 2: moving on. You can't do the job. Yeah, this is 1067 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 2: basic stuff. And you know, I don't even think he's 1068 00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 2: articulated it in a particularly offensive way. He's not like, oh, 1069 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 2: we can't even walk or any of the stuff. He's like, look, 1070 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:11,880 Speaker 2: you can't do it. He showed us that there were 1071 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 2: some concerns. We have a good record. Let's go in 1072 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 2: a different direction. Yeah, why is it so hard? 1073 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:17,960 Speaker 1: I am kind of sick of all the whole Biden 1074 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,800 Speaker 1: is so amazing. It's yeah, it's so incredible. It's like, 1075 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 1: why don't you ask the people in Gazo we're about 1076 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,319 Speaker 1: to talk about there could be as many as two 1077 00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people who have been killed there, like ten 1078 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 1: percent of the population. How nice of a guy Joe 1079 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: Biden is. But put that aside for a moment. The 1080 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 1: people who are coming out, I think you have to 1081 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:39,840 Speaker 1: conclude our people who number one are potentially more politically 1082 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:43,320 Speaker 1: savvy and see where the ball is ultimately going to bounce. 1083 00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:45,920 Speaker 1: And like I was saying before, how it's not going 1084 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 1: to reflect well on anyone that you know who stood 1085 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 1: up for Biden in this moment and who tried to 1086 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: cover for him in this moment, tried to deny reality 1087 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:55,879 Speaker 1: that was in front of all of our faces. It's 1088 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,840 Speaker 1: not going to work out well for them. So that's 1089 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 1: number one. But number two, I think the there are 1090 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 1: probably people who really believe the rhetoric about democracies on 1091 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 1: the ballot and this could be the last election and 1092 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:10,280 Speaker 1: it's all on the line and Project twenty twenty five, 1093 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 1: and like we have to put everything aside and really 1094 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 1: marshal our resources and put forward our best case to 1095 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,600 Speaker 1: try to defeat that man. If you if you really 1096 00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 1: believe that, you would be behaving the way Congressman Smith 1097 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 1: and Angie Craig, and I think Quigley was another of these, 1098 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 1: you know other congress people who have come out and said, 1099 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 1: like he has to step aside. If you really believe that, 1100 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,520 Speaker 1: it's very clear that that's the posture that you would take. 1101 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: So for these other people who are running cover for him, 1102 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:40,280 Speaker 1: like don't don't come to me, in the future, pretending 1103 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,400 Speaker 1: like this is an existential election. You clearly don't believe that. 1104 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:46,520 Speaker 1: You don't believe that, so you know, I don't want 1105 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,240 Speaker 1: to hear it in the future about what a danger 1106 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 1: Trump is or what a fascist he is, what a 1107 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 1: threat to the republic, because you do not believe that 1108 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,480 Speaker 1: you have been exposed in this moment as utterly full 1109 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,800 Speaker 1: of shit when it comes to any credibility on the 1110 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,319 Speaker 1: question of what a threat Donald Trump is. 1111 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:03,960 Speaker 3: Absolutely
