WEBVTT - Donald Trump's War on the Media

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Today we will talk about three things. We will talk

0:00:03.960 --> 0:00:08.559
<v Speaker 1>about Donald Trump's insanity from the Oval Office, his lies

0:00:08.920 --> 0:00:12.879
<v Speaker 1>and smearing of Nicole Wallace. We will talk about his

0:00:13.000 --> 0:00:17.840
<v Speaker 1>attacks on national forest land, his executive order that will

0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:21.960
<v Speaker 1>permit logging in some of the most pristine places on

0:00:22.079 --> 0:00:26.760
<v Speaker 1>planet Earth. And lastly, we will talk about his insults

0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>to America's allies. This is the warning. Let's start there

0:00:33.360 --> 0:00:37.080
<v Speaker 1>in the Oval Office, where Donald Trump holds court like

0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:40.879
<v Speaker 1>John Gottie might have at the Ravensbrooks Social Club. The

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:46.159
<v Speaker 1>Nations media asks their banal and inane questions, and today's

0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:50.400
<v Speaker 1>was would the United States adhere to its Article five

0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>responsibilities and obligations and defend our NATO allies in Europe

0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>if they were attacked, which the treaty obligates us to do.

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:05.720
<v Speaker 1>Here is Trump's answer. Before I show it to you.

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:11.479
<v Speaker 1>Let me note Donald Trump has never defended anything or anyone.

0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:15.760
<v Speaker 1>But listen to him talk in the first person. Listen

0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 1>to him personalize the United States as his, as if

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:25.759
<v Speaker 1>when an American soldier fights, they're fighting for Trump. This

0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:32.120
<v Speaker 1>is a sick and deranged, malignant narcissist. And because forty

0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:36.400
<v Speaker 1>nine point nine percent of the American people voted for this.

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:41.839
<v Speaker 1>We stand at the edge of catastrophe. Let's watch.

0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 2>Are you gonna make that policy US policy, that the

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:47.600
<v Speaker 2>US wouldn't defend NATO countries that don't pay you, Well,

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:50.160
<v Speaker 2>I think it's common sense right if they don't pay,

0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:51.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to defend them. No, I'm not going

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:53.680
<v Speaker 2>to defend him. I got into a lot of heat

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:56.680
<v Speaker 2>when I said that. He said, oh, he's violating NATO.

0:01:57.840 --> 0:01:59.559
<v Speaker 2>And you know the biggest problem I have with NATO,

0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, I mean, I know the guys very well.

0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 2>They're friends of mine. But if the United States was

0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:10.799
<v Speaker 2>in trouble and we called them, we said, we got

0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:16.440
<v Speaker 2>a problem, France, we got a problem, a couple of others.

0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 2>I won't mention. Do you think they're gonna come and

0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:24.440
<v Speaker 2>protect us they're supposed to. I'm not sorry. Sure.

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump says if America was attacked, our European allies

0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:34.960
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't come to our defense. Tell it to the mother

0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:39.760
<v Speaker 1>of the British soldier who died fighting because America was attacked,

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 1>or the Canadian soldier look at this flag draped casket,

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:49.080
<v Speaker 1>or the Dutch, the French, the Germans, Many, many nations

0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:54.440
<v Speaker 1>gave their sons because this country was attacked. Donald Trump,

0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 1>sitting behind the Resolute Desk, takes the position that Russia,

0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>led by a murder tyrant, and Ukraine share a neutral

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:08.519
<v Speaker 1>proposition when it comes to the war that was begun

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>by Russian aggression. Donald Trump has cut off military aid

0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>to Ukraine. He has cut off food aid to the

0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:21.760
<v Speaker 1>poorest places in Africa. When he was speaking on Tuesday night,

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:25.840
<v Speaker 1>children were beginning to starve, and they will start and

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:29.679
<v Speaker 1>they will die of starvation. And it is a miserable,

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>miserable death. Nicole Wallace did not attack a young cancer

0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:40.960
<v Speaker 1>survivor that Donald Trump had his Secret Service director make

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:45.680
<v Speaker 1>an honorary Secret Service agent with the presentation of a

0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:49.760
<v Speaker 1>badge during an address to the nation. It was a

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:54.040
<v Speaker 1>scene that delighted the young man, but it was also

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>a moment that was something out of American idol. The

0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>world is spinning and Donald Trump is producing a show.

0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:06.839
<v Speaker 1>And in that show, Donald Trump is a compassionate man.

0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump, when it comes to the theater of Donald

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:15.760
<v Speaker 1>Trump is cast as something very different than what he is.

0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:19.279
<v Speaker 1>And that was the point of the propaganda. That was

0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:22.640
<v Speaker 1>the point of handing this young man a badge. Donald

0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Trump gave a secret service badge to a boy while

0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:31.080
<v Speaker 1>he is sentencing other boys and girls to death by

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:36.040
<v Speaker 1>cutting off the cancer research that saved this boy. Let's

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:41.480
<v Speaker 1>watch what Donald Trump said about Nicole Wallace and appreciate

0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:45.320
<v Speaker 1>he said it, because what Nicole Wallace said about him

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:49.880
<v Speaker 1>was the truth. It scalded him, and he reacted like

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:51.480
<v Speaker 1>a burned monkey.

0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Let's watch, frankly, what Nicole Wallace said. I've never been

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 2>a fan of hers, but and she's not very talented,

0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:03.600
<v Speaker 2>but I'll tell you what she said the other day

0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:07.159
<v Speaker 2>about that young man is disgraceful. She should be forced

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:07.640
<v Speaker 2>to resign.

0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Now Here is what Nicole Wallace said.

0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:13.839
<v Speaker 3>I think this was a lesson in finding one thing

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:18.360
<v Speaker 3>that you let yourself feel. And I let myself feel

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:23.520
<v Speaker 3>joy about DJ And I hope he's alive for another

0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:26.479
<v Speaker 3>you know, ninety five years right, And I hope he

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:29.960
<v Speaker 3>lives and the life he wants to live. He wants

0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:31.440
<v Speaker 3>to be a cop, He knows what he wants to do,

0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 3>and maybe when you have childhood cancer that crystallizes for you.

0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:37.640
<v Speaker 3>And I hope he has a long life as a

0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:40.320
<v Speaker 3>law enforcement officer. But I hope he never has to

0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:43.599
<v Speaker 3>defend the United States capital against Donald Trump supporters, and

0:05:43.680 --> 0:05:45.919
<v Speaker 3>if he does, I hope he isn't one of the

0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 3>six who loses his life to suicide. And I hope

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 3>he isn't one who has to testify against the people

0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:54.080
<v Speaker 3>who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and then live

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:56.040
<v Speaker 3>to see Donald Trump pardon those people.

0:05:56.680 --> 0:06:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Shouldn't we all wish this that should this young man

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:04.240
<v Speaker 1>become a police officer, that they never face this Trump's

0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>murdering mob of mayhem, six suicides of police officers. This

0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:15.560
<v Speaker 1>spectacle took place in the exact spot where that mob

0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:19.919
<v Speaker 1>came to hang the Vice president, to kill members of Congress,

0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:24.760
<v Speaker 1>to destroy the constitution, to make a man who lost

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:29.960
<v Speaker 1>an election that he still refuses to concede he lost dictator.

0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:34.080
<v Speaker 1>That was the goal, and that was what Nicole Wallace

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>pointed out, because Nicole Wallace is tough, and Nicole Wallace

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:41.880
<v Speaker 1>tells the truth and she has integrity, and so MAGA

0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:45.640
<v Speaker 1>has gone nuts. When you tell the truth, you will

0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:50.839
<v Speaker 1>be attacked by a vicious circle of propagandas at the

0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 1>Daily Caller, at Fox News, in the Daily Mail, the

0:06:55.800 --> 0:07:01.560
<v Speaker 1>right wing media will not tolerate the true or criticism

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:05.360
<v Speaker 1>about Donald Trump. There are many terrible things that are

0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:09.000
<v Speaker 1>happening in America, but amongst the worst is the attack

0:07:09.440 --> 0:07:14.160
<v Speaker 1>on the American West, which is an ephemeral place, beautiful

0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:21.120
<v Speaker 1>beyond words. Generations of Americans before us have preserved the

0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:29.200
<v Speaker 1>beautiful places, the open spaces. These are America's cathedrals, magnificent

0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:35.600
<v Speaker 1>national parks and forests. And today Donald Trump signed executive

0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:41.520
<v Speaker 1>orders that will begin their clear cutting for money for gold.

0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Let us cut down the trees. That's the deal that

0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Trump is offering. He is a rapist in every sense

0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:54.160
<v Speaker 1>of the word. He will rape the land for nothing.

0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:59.240
<v Speaker 1>He has no interest in preserving anything. He is no king,

0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:03.080
<v Speaker 1>but if he were, then he would be the locust king,

0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:08.480
<v Speaker 1>the greatest taker and defiler that has ever been in

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:13.840
<v Speaker 1>this country, the first American president to switch sides in

0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 1>the middle of an allies desperate fight for survival, to

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 1>take the side of a dictator. He is our nero,

0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:29.160
<v Speaker 1>drunk on the attention and the power. His arrogance is

0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:33.360
<v Speaker 1>dripping off of him, and he is angry, and he

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:37.720
<v Speaker 1>is vengeful. And today the most powerful man in the

0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 1>world sat in the Oval Office, clenching his fists, demanding

0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:48.360
<v Speaker 1>the firing of Nicole Wallace and Rachel Maddow because they

0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:55.760
<v Speaker 1>dare to pierce the veil of bullshit and propaganda, and said, Noah,

0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:59.319
<v Speaker 1>this is a vicious man. And how do we know.

0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:03.120
<v Speaker 1>We know from his conduct. And so while that little

0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:07.440
<v Speaker 1>boy was given his badge, the baby starves and cries

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:12.240
<v Speaker 1>in Africa. And then as the starvation nears its end,

0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:16.559
<v Speaker 1>the crying stops and the face of the child becomes

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:20.760
<v Speaker 1>the face of the living dead. This immorality is what

0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Nicole Wallace was speaking about. His viciousness is what Nicole

0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:29.439
<v Speaker 1>Wallace was speaking about. His lack of character is what

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Nicole Wallace was speaking about. Nicole Wallace didn't attack a

0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:38.400
<v Speaker 1>young boy. In fact, the only person in this entire

0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:42.720
<v Speaker 1>equation who was fighting for him was Nicole Wallace. So

0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:46.120
<v Speaker 1>we live in the world now where up is down

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:48.520
<v Speaker 1>and down is up, and left is right and right

0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:51.400
<v Speaker 1>is left. And Donald Trump will say we are great

0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:56.480
<v Speaker 1>when we are being made poor because our values are

0:09:56.559 --> 0:10:02.720
<v Speaker 1>being shredded, and our great temple of God's creation are

0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:09.240
<v Speaker 1>being cut down. Our allies have been betrayed, Our nation's

0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:14.440
<v Speaker 1>noble purpose has been viciously undermined, and we must fight back.

0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:18.360
<v Speaker 1>My friends, we must fight back. We must tell the truth.

0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:23.439
<v Speaker 1>We must organize, and we must prepare to vote and

0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:27.439
<v Speaker 1>to bring many more people to the polls than voted

0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:31.320
<v Speaker 1>last time. Nicole Wallace, she told the truth, and she

0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:34.800
<v Speaker 1>did it in an eloquent way. The truth is what

0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:38.320
<v Speaker 1>will defeat Donald Trump. Let me show you again what

0:10:38.440 --> 0:11:01.360
<v Speaker 1>the House Democrats are doing. This is not the way

0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Nicole Wallace illuminated a path. It's a better way. The

0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:10.760
<v Speaker 1>truth about Donald Trump is very simple. He's a bad

0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:15.000
<v Speaker 1>man doing bad things to our country, and at every

0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:19.760
<v Speaker 1>opportunity he will look for stick. He will look for

0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 1>an event where he can play a role and try

0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:27.320
<v Speaker 1>to be a good guy. But even the stupidest amongst

0:11:27.440 --> 0:11:31.199
<v Speaker 1>us must know that's not true. This is the warning,

0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and I'm Steve Schmidt. This is the warning. I invite
