1 00:00:04,755 --> 00:00:08,995 Speaker 1: Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of I Heart Radio. 2 00:00:22,875 --> 00:00:27,755 Speaker 1: Of Course Trump knew who Nick Fuentes was. Of course 3 00:00:27,795 --> 00:00:32,275 Speaker 1: Trump knew what Nick Fuentes is. Of course Trump knew 4 00:00:32,315 --> 00:00:36,235 Speaker 1: what Kanye West has become. Of Course Trump knew they 5 00:00:36,235 --> 00:00:40,115 Speaker 1: were there, knew he wanted them there because they are 6 00:00:40,195 --> 00:00:44,635 Speaker 1: hate peddlers and mad men and that they have followings. 7 00:00:45,675 --> 00:00:49,435 Speaker 1: Of Course Trump knew they were anti Semites, because Trump 8 00:00:49,955 --> 00:00:52,955 Speaker 1: is an anti Semite. Because you do not get past 9 00:00:53,075 --> 00:00:59,275 Speaker 1: security and the Secret Service as Kanye's plus one. Because 10 00:00:59,315 --> 00:01:02,875 Speaker 1: Trump always hides by saying afterwards he didn't know anything 11 00:01:02,915 --> 00:01:06,955 Speaker 1: about them, because Trump always was just trying to help, 12 00:01:07,155 --> 00:01:10,275 Speaker 1: was just joking. Was the real victim here because somebody 13 00:01:10,315 --> 00:01:15,435 Speaker 1: took advantage of him, Because Trump has been exposing more 14 00:01:15,475 --> 00:01:19,235 Speaker 1: and more of his anti Semitism percentage point by percentage 15 00:01:19,275 --> 00:01:24,675 Speaker 1: point for seven and a half years, because nobody in 16 00:01:24,715 --> 00:01:30,235 Speaker 1: his party stopped him, because nobody condemned the incremental revelation 17 00:01:30,275 --> 00:01:33,475 Speaker 1: of the hatred and the manipulation of the Jewish community 18 00:01:33,515 --> 00:01:38,435 Speaker 1: to please the fundamentalists. Because this is how you would 19 00:01:38,515 --> 00:01:41,555 Speaker 1: want to spend Thanksgiving Week with someone you later would 20 00:01:41,595 --> 00:01:44,595 Speaker 1: throw under the bus. As a quote, seriously, troubled man 21 00:01:44,635 --> 00:01:48,115 Speaker 1: who just happens to be black, and then claim he 22 00:01:48,275 --> 00:01:50,435 Speaker 1: just showed up with three other people and instead of 23 00:01:50,475 --> 00:01:53,595 Speaker 1: throwing them all out, you brought them in to your 24 00:01:53,635 --> 00:02:01,235 Speaker 1: combination home and restaurant. Because ultimately none of this was 25 00:02:01,275 --> 00:02:07,755 Speaker 1: an accident or coincidence or a surprise. Trump met with 26 00:02:07,835 --> 00:02:12,035 Speaker 1: them because he meant to meet with them, because since 27 00:02:12,075 --> 00:02:15,435 Speaker 1: November eight, Trump's problem has been getting bigger and his 28 00:02:15,515 --> 00:02:19,715 Speaker 1: world has been getting smaller. He met with the anti Semites. 29 00:02:19,995 --> 00:02:23,155 Speaker 1: He met with the filth that is Nick Fluentes and 30 00:02:23,235 --> 00:02:27,595 Speaker 1: the filth that is Kanye West, because they are what 31 00:02:27,755 --> 00:02:32,075 Speaker 1: he has left. Because the Republican Party could come back 32 00:02:32,115 --> 00:02:35,235 Speaker 1: to him, they have before, their voters could force them 33 00:02:35,235 --> 00:02:39,195 Speaker 1: back to him. But the establishment of the Republican Party 34 00:02:39,275 --> 00:02:45,355 Speaker 1: believes he lost them the mid terms. After seven years 35 00:02:45,355 --> 00:02:49,755 Speaker 1: of disingenuous, destructive, disastrous, fawning, Republicans have actually had a 36 00:02:49,795 --> 00:02:52,795 Speaker 1: collective truth leak, and some of them have backed away 37 00:02:52,835 --> 00:02:54,875 Speaker 1: quickly and others have backed away slowly, but they have 38 00:02:54,955 --> 00:03:03,115 Speaker 1: all backed away, and that means Trump has a big problem. 39 00:03:03,315 --> 00:03:08,515 Speaker 1: Consider who since the mid terms, who besides Trump himself 40 00:03:08,835 --> 00:03:14,155 Speaker 1: and the Mike Lindell's and the other crack pots. Who 41 00:03:14,195 --> 00:03:17,555 Speaker 1: has even repeated Trump's mantra, Who has repeated the line 42 00:03:17,555 --> 00:03:24,115 Speaker 1: since the midterms that election was stolen? Who says that 43 00:03:24,195 --> 00:03:29,675 Speaker 1: anymore three weeks later, And if that mantra is not 44 00:03:29,795 --> 00:03:32,475 Speaker 1: repeated by others, it is Trump saying it by himself, 45 00:03:32,475 --> 00:03:37,315 Speaker 1: and he looks foolish and small and pointless. And for 46 00:03:37,355 --> 00:03:40,035 Speaker 1: the giant disaster the mid terms were for the Republicans. 47 00:03:40,035 --> 00:03:42,995 Speaker 1: They still won the House, and the day it became official, 48 00:03:42,995 --> 00:03:45,675 Speaker 1: they announced their investigations as they said they would, the 49 00:03:45,715 --> 00:03:49,195 Speaker 1: committees that would probe Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, and 50 00:03:49,355 --> 00:03:52,555 Speaker 1: Fauci and ma Orcas and god knows who else and 51 00:03:52,635 --> 00:03:58,475 Speaker 1: what else, everything except the election they had all said 52 00:03:58,515 --> 00:04:02,475 Speaker 1: three weeks earlier, had been stolen, This cardinal belief of 53 00:04:02,515 --> 00:04:07,155 Speaker 1: the Trump Republican fascist Party, their song of two years. 54 00:04:08,195 --> 00:04:11,715 Speaker 1: And it is not to be investigated because whether or 55 00:04:11,755 --> 00:04:15,595 Speaker 1: not he is capable of understanding this, they do. The 56 00:04:15,635 --> 00:04:19,275 Speaker 1: election was not stolen, It was not close, it was 57 00:04:19,315 --> 00:04:22,155 Speaker 1: not in doubt, it was not rigged. It is not 58 00:04:22,515 --> 00:04:26,115 Speaker 1: worth even a show trial. It is not even worth 59 00:04:26,155 --> 00:04:29,515 Speaker 1: a hearing by the House Oversight Committee. It is not 60 00:04:29,675 --> 00:04:34,555 Speaker 1: even worth the time of oversight Chairman elect James Comer, 61 00:04:34,675 --> 00:04:40,075 Speaker 1: whoever the hell he is. The Republican Party has not 62 00:04:40,235 --> 00:04:44,235 Speaker 1: just abandoned Trump since the midterms, It has abandoned Trump's 63 00:04:44,475 --> 00:04:49,955 Speaker 1: reason to exist. And that is why Trump had dinner 64 00:04:49,995 --> 00:04:53,995 Speaker 1: with Kanye West and Nick Puente's. Because he needs a 65 00:04:54,075 --> 00:04:57,675 Speaker 1: new conspiracy, and he needs a new pitch, He needs 66 00:04:57,715 --> 00:05:01,595 Speaker 1: a new Cohn, he needs a new rage. And yes, 67 00:05:01,675 --> 00:05:06,195 Speaker 1: he may try full, horrid, even violent anti Semitism in 68 00:05:06,235 --> 00:05:09,155 Speaker 1: the same way he started with anti Mexican slander and 69 00:05:09,195 --> 00:05:12,635 Speaker 1: then turned to Islamophobic hatred and then tried scapegoting Black 70 00:05:12,675 --> 00:05:15,635 Speaker 1: Lives Matter, and as he had previously flirted with the 71 00:05:15,675 --> 00:05:18,875 Speaker 1: symbols and subtleties of anti Semitism that he is now 72 00:05:18,955 --> 00:05:23,035 Speaker 1: poised to embrace fully. This is not to imply that 73 00:05:23,075 --> 00:05:25,995 Speaker 1: the anti Semitism is some sort of act on Trump's part. 74 00:05:26,075 --> 00:05:29,395 Speaker 1: Quite the opposite, as this edition of Countdown will document, 75 00:05:30,235 --> 00:05:34,075 Speaker 1: It comes naturally to Trump because he is an anti 76 00:05:34,115 --> 00:05:37,075 Speaker 1: Semite and he is an admirer of out of Hitler. 77 00:05:37,915 --> 00:05:41,035 Speaker 1: But he has previously scolded American Jews for not loving 78 00:05:41,155 --> 00:05:45,315 Speaker 1: Israel as much as he does while tweeting out memes 79 00:05:45,315 --> 00:05:48,435 Speaker 1: of Hillary Clinton and others surrounded by pieces of gold 80 00:05:48,435 --> 00:05:56,115 Speaker 1: and stars of David contradictions, hypocrisy, stop misunderstanding Trump. He 81 00:05:56,235 --> 00:05:59,395 Speaker 1: is not a human being, as you know the term. 82 00:05:59,515 --> 00:06:04,515 Speaker 1: Trump will befriend anyone, betray anyone, befriend then betray, and 83 00:06:04,835 --> 00:06:09,115 Speaker 1: one he will embrace then hate. He will, as Jewish 84 00:06:09,155 --> 00:06:12,355 Speaker 1: people already know all too well, he will do both 85 00:06:12,435 --> 00:06:16,875 Speaker 1: at the same time, embrace and hate because ultimately Donald 86 00:06:16,915 --> 00:06:23,595 Speaker 1: Trump hates anybody who isn't Donald Trump. So if Kanye 87 00:06:23,635 --> 00:06:26,675 Speaker 1: West's version of that dinner is accurate, when West said 88 00:06:26,795 --> 00:06:30,035 Speaker 1: he would run for president in and would like Trump 89 00:06:30,075 --> 00:06:32,995 Speaker 1: to be his running mate, the first actual cutting joke 90 00:06:33,115 --> 00:06:37,635 Speaker 1: West has made in a decade, Trump erupted in rage. 91 00:06:38,955 --> 00:06:41,675 Speaker 1: But when Nick Fuente said he was part of Trump's 92 00:06:41,715 --> 00:06:46,355 Speaker 1: bass and loyal, Trump erupted in I really like this guy. 93 00:06:46,515 --> 00:06:51,235 Speaker 1: He gets me. If you rebel against Trump, you get 94 00:06:51,235 --> 00:06:55,275 Speaker 1: the West treatment, if you might fulfill Trump's needs, if 95 00:06:55,315 --> 00:06:59,275 Speaker 1: you are servile, you get the Fuente's treatment. Say, for 96 00:06:59,315 --> 00:07:04,635 Speaker 1: a moment, he didn't know who Nick Fuentes was, even 97 00:07:04,715 --> 00:07:14,275 Speaker 1: Trump knows now has he denounced Twent's not one bit 98 00:07:16,195 --> 00:07:19,395 Speaker 1: And still seven and a half years into this, and 99 00:07:19,475 --> 00:07:22,595 Speaker 1: you have to hunt for Republicans willing to even mildly 100 00:07:22,635 --> 00:07:27,315 Speaker 1: rebuke Trump for this, even wounded as he is, even 101 00:07:27,355 --> 00:07:29,835 Speaker 1: on a trajectory that ends with somebody else as the 102 00:07:29,835 --> 00:07:33,995 Speaker 1: Republican nominee and himself under indictment by a special counsel 103 00:07:34,795 --> 00:07:36,875 Speaker 1: and forced to run as a third party candidate who 104 00:07:36,875 --> 00:07:40,275 Speaker 1: could accomplish nothing but guarantee the Democrats the White House 105 00:07:40,315 --> 00:07:46,315 Speaker 1: in the Republicans still hold back. He certainly needs better 106 00:07:46,435 --> 00:07:50,955 Speaker 1: judgment and who he dines with, said that Congressman Comber yesterday. 107 00:07:51,115 --> 00:07:54,995 Speaker 1: Congressman Comber himself accused of hitting his college girlfriend, threatening 108 00:07:54,995 --> 00:07:57,035 Speaker 1: her life, and trying to hide his role in aboording 109 00:07:57,075 --> 00:08:01,875 Speaker 1: their child. This guy is comfortable questioning Trump's judgment but 110 00:08:01,995 --> 00:08:06,235 Speaker 1: not slamming him for his anti Semitism. I would not 111 00:08:06,395 --> 00:08:09,155 Speaker 1: take a meeting with that person, though I wouldn't take 112 00:08:09,195 --> 00:08:13,115 Speaker 1: a meeting with Kanye West either, said Comber. But that's 113 00:08:13,155 --> 00:08:19,075 Speaker 1: my opinion. Governor Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas yesterday. I don't 114 00:08:19,115 --> 00:08:22,035 Speaker 1: think it's a good idea for a leader that is 115 00:08:22,075 --> 00:08:24,555 Speaker 1: setting an example for the country or the party to 116 00:08:24,675 --> 00:08:29,635 Speaker 1: meet with an avowed racist or anti Semite. You think 117 00:08:30,435 --> 00:08:34,955 Speaker 1: Hutchinson could use those words racist or anti Semite, but 118 00:08:35,035 --> 00:08:37,795 Speaker 1: he still tossed the whole thing off as not a 119 00:08:37,915 --> 00:08:42,115 Speaker 1: good idea, not a good idea, as if Trump had 120 00:08:42,235 --> 00:08:46,595 Speaker 1: ordered one dessert too many. And then there was the 121 00:08:46,715 --> 00:08:53,715 Speaker 1: saddest of the comments. Trump's ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, tweeted, 122 00:08:53,955 --> 00:09:00,635 Speaker 1: quote to my friend Donald Trump, you are better than this. Well, no, 123 00:09:00,755 --> 00:09:04,395 Speaker 1: he's not. And there right there is the fundamental mistake 124 00:09:04,435 --> 00:09:07,715 Speaker 1: made every member of every group Trump has attacked or betrayed. 125 00:09:07,915 --> 00:09:10,235 Speaker 1: There is the I never thought leopards would eat my 126 00:09:10,315 --> 00:09:14,795 Speaker 1: face moment from Ambassador Freedman. Quote, even a social visit 127 00:09:14,795 --> 00:09:17,835 Speaker 1: from an anti Semit like Kanye West and human scum 128 00:09:17,875 --> 00:09:21,115 Speaker 1: like Nick Fantes is unacceptable. I urge you to throw 129 00:09:21,235 --> 00:09:24,635 Speaker 1: those bums out, disavow them, and relegate them to the 130 00:09:24,715 --> 00:09:30,315 Speaker 1: dustbin of history where they belong. Narrator. He didn't throw 131 00:09:30,355 --> 00:09:38,275 Speaker 1: them out, nor disavow them, nor relegate them to dust bins. Unexpectedly, 132 00:09:38,835 --> 00:09:43,995 Speaker 1: the most straightforward criticism came from generic x cop right 133 00:09:43,995 --> 00:09:49,955 Speaker 1: wing commentator number John Cardillo, who rejected the entire narrative 134 00:09:50,395 --> 00:09:53,555 Speaker 1: and quite effectively, I might add to quote his tweet, 135 00:09:54,355 --> 00:09:57,915 Speaker 1: nobody gets near a former sitting president under Secret Service 136 00:09:57,915 --> 00:10:04,275 Speaker 1: protection without submitting their name and being vetted grow up unquote, 137 00:10:05,595 --> 00:10:09,635 Speaker 1: to which we can add, nobody gets near Trump, not now, 138 00:10:10,195 --> 00:10:14,395 Speaker 1: without possibly serving his suddenly desperate need for a different outcome, 139 00:10:14,955 --> 00:10:18,955 Speaker 1: for a way out of this. The collision of schemes 140 00:10:19,035 --> 00:10:23,355 Speaker 1: inside him must be like watching planets crash into each other. 141 00:10:23,955 --> 00:10:31,875 Speaker 1: Become more presidential, become more likable, become more anti Semitic. Boy. 142 00:10:32,355 --> 00:10:36,275 Speaker 1: Not seven years ago, that last option, even in theory, 143 00:10:36,715 --> 00:10:40,275 Speaker 1: would have been a third rail. Any politician meeting with 144 00:10:40,395 --> 00:10:44,075 Speaker 1: Nick Fuentes in early two thousand fifteen would have been 145 00:10:44,235 --> 00:10:48,835 Speaker 1: finished beyond retrieval, or at least beyond retrieval without the 146 00:10:48,835 --> 00:10:53,795 Speaker 1: most fulsome and most lengthy of apology tours. Because let 147 00:10:53,875 --> 00:10:58,595 Speaker 1: us remember on what Fuentes bases his entire philosophy of politics, 148 00:10:58,755 --> 00:11:05,075 Speaker 1: end of life, the hateful contention that Jews hate Jesus 149 00:11:05,115 --> 00:11:09,755 Speaker 1: and therefore Jews must leave America, and so far, is 150 00:11:09,835 --> 00:11:12,755 Speaker 1: that's your belief, then you have no business being here, 151 00:11:13,635 --> 00:11:16,675 Speaker 1: certainly have no business being anywhere near the lovers of 152 00:11:16,675 --> 00:11:19,515 Speaker 1: power if you believe that, Because who do you serve? 153 00:11:19,555 --> 00:11:22,835 Speaker 1: If you don't serve Jesus Christ, you serve the devil, 154 00:11:22,995 --> 00:11:27,395 Speaker 1: You serve Satan. Oh I'm anti Semitic. Yeah, whatever, you 155 00:11:27,435 --> 00:11:30,075 Speaker 1: call me whatever you want. You hate Jesus, your opinion 156 00:11:30,075 --> 00:11:32,995 Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. Call me whateveryone do you believe 157 00:11:33,035 --> 00:11:36,755 Speaker 1: in God? Okay? Opinion discarded, opinion thrown in the garbage 158 00:11:36,755 --> 00:11:41,715 Speaker 1: and piste on. Oh I'm anti Semitic. Yeah, I piss 159 00:11:41,755 --> 00:11:43,955 Speaker 1: on your town. But you think I'm anti Semitic. You 160 00:11:43,995 --> 00:11:48,555 Speaker 1: think I care what anti Christ believes. Illinois Nazis. I 161 00:11:48,675 --> 00:11:54,675 Speaker 1: hate Illinois Nazis. That is what Trump was really impressed 162 00:11:54,715 --> 00:11:59,235 Speaker 1: with at dinner, according to Kanye West, that, according to 163 00:11:59,315 --> 00:12:03,595 Speaker 1: more reliable witnesses, is the scum of whom Donald John 164 00:12:03,635 --> 00:12:09,715 Speaker 1: Trump said, I really like this guy. He gets me. 165 00:12:23,635 --> 00:12:27,755 Speaker 1: Of course, Fluente's would get Trump. Trump is an anti Semite. 166 00:12:28,235 --> 00:12:32,835 Speaker 1: Trump has admired Hitler. As this special edition of Countdown continues. 167 00:12:32,875 --> 00:12:35,595 Speaker 1: The evidence that both of those statements are true is 168 00:12:35,675 --> 00:12:39,475 Speaker 1: not in any way, shape or form new. Some of 169 00:12:39,515 --> 00:12:44,155 Speaker 1: it has been in the public records since when we 170 00:12:44,235 --> 00:12:47,555 Speaker 1: first learned Donald Trump kept a book of Hitler's speeches 171 00:12:48,555 --> 00:13:02,515 Speaker 1: next to his bed. That's next. This is Countdown continuing 172 00:13:02,555 --> 00:13:05,395 Speaker 1: this special edition about how Nick Fuente Is in Kanye 173 00:13:05,435 --> 00:13:09,035 Speaker 1: West were hardly the only anti Semites at Trump's dinner table, 174 00:13:09,555 --> 00:13:13,795 Speaker 1: because Trump's contempt for Jewish people proceeds even There's a 175 00:13:13,835 --> 00:13:17,875 Speaker 1: little history about Trump and his admiration for Adolf Hitler. 176 00:13:18,715 --> 00:13:22,595 Speaker 1: More than two months ago, I said Trump had degenerated 177 00:13:22,635 --> 00:13:25,315 Speaker 1: into America's Hitler, and I got some grief for it. 178 00:13:25,755 --> 00:13:29,555 Speaker 1: And then a month later to the day, Trump threatened 179 00:13:29,595 --> 00:13:32,555 Speaker 1: America's Jews and told them they quote have to get 180 00:13:32,595 --> 00:13:35,915 Speaker 1: their act together before it is too late, and that 181 00:13:35,955 --> 00:13:39,435 Speaker 1: they had better support him for supporting Israel. And once 182 00:13:39,475 --> 00:13:43,195 Speaker 1: again he implied that they were Jewish first and American second. 183 00:13:43,595 --> 00:13:45,315 Speaker 1: And no, the fact that he used to keep a 184 00:13:45,355 --> 00:13:48,595 Speaker 1: book of Hitler's speeches in a cabinet next to his 185 00:13:48,675 --> 00:13:53,395 Speaker 1: bed is nothing to worry about. Donald Trump is an 186 00:13:53,435 --> 00:13:58,235 Speaker 1: anti Semite. He has always been an anti Semite. And 187 00:13:58,315 --> 00:14:01,435 Speaker 1: anything that he has done that has not been overtly 188 00:14:01,475 --> 00:14:05,675 Speaker 1: anti Semitic has been transactional. There was always something in 189 00:14:05,715 --> 00:14:08,435 Speaker 1: it for him, and those of the Jewish faith were 190 00:14:08,475 --> 00:14:12,675 Speaker 1: just incidental to the process. And this should be shattering 191 00:14:12,755 --> 00:14:16,395 Speaker 1: lee important to you, whatever your faith and whatever your background. 192 00:14:17,635 --> 00:14:19,555 Speaker 1: There is actually a chance you did not see his 193 00:14:19,675 --> 00:14:22,315 Speaker 1: social media post. Good luck finding it on the front 194 00:14:22,355 --> 00:14:25,555 Speaker 1: page of the major news websites, let alone analysis of it. 195 00:14:26,275 --> 00:14:28,395 Speaker 1: Let me read it in its entirety first, and then 196 00:14:28,475 --> 00:14:32,675 Speaker 1: translate its meanings, And those meanings are genuinely ominous, even 197 00:14:32,755 --> 00:14:38,155 Speaker 1: for this new apocalyptic Trump quote, no president has done 198 00:14:38,155 --> 00:14:43,155 Speaker 1: more for Israel than I have. Somewhat surprisingly, however, our 199 00:14:43,355 --> 00:14:47,515 Speaker 1: wonderful evangelicals are far more appreciative of this than the 200 00:14:47,555 --> 00:14:52,115 Speaker 1: people of the Jewish faith, especially those living in the US. 201 00:14:52,835 --> 00:14:56,315 Speaker 1: Those living in Israel, though, are a different story. Highest 202 00:14:56,355 --> 00:15:00,555 Speaker 1: approval rating in the world could easily be pm US. 203 00:15:00,835 --> 00:15:04,955 Speaker 1: Jews have to get their act together and appreciate they 204 00:15:04,995 --> 00:15:09,755 Speaker 1: have in Israel before it is too late. Exclamation point. 205 00:15:12,355 --> 00:15:14,915 Speaker 1: The first thing to note is Trump's unshakable conviction that 206 00:15:14,955 --> 00:15:17,715 Speaker 1: Americans of Jewish heritage are actually loyal first, or should 207 00:15:17,755 --> 00:15:21,955 Speaker 1: be loyal first, to Israel people of the Jewish faith, 208 00:15:22,115 --> 00:15:26,035 Speaker 1: especially those living in the US. This is one of 209 00:15:26,075 --> 00:15:29,315 Speaker 1: the oldest tropes about that religion, that there is an 210 00:15:29,355 --> 00:15:33,155 Speaker 1: implied dual citizenship. A certain uncertainty is to where royal 211 00:15:33,195 --> 00:15:38,275 Speaker 1: loyalty really lies. All anti Semites believe this. All rulers 212 00:15:38,315 --> 00:15:44,595 Speaker 1: whoever purged Jews believe it. Hitler began with it in 213 00:15:44,635 --> 00:15:47,475 Speaker 1: two thousand eighteen, at a Honkkah event at the White House, 214 00:15:47,555 --> 00:15:51,235 Speaker 1: addressing Americans who happened to be Jewish, Trump referred to 215 00:15:51,315 --> 00:15:55,395 Speaker 1: Israel as quote your country. A year later, he said 216 00:15:55,435 --> 00:15:58,235 Speaker 1: that any Jewish American who voted for a Democrat might 217 00:15:58,235 --> 00:16:02,795 Speaker 1: be disloyal. Just last year, he asked a reporter from 218 00:16:02,795 --> 00:16:07,075 Speaker 1: an Orthodox Jewish magazine, I did the Heights, I did Jerusalem, 219 00:16:07,195 --> 00:16:10,155 Speaker 1: and I did Iran. The Iran deal was a disaster, right, 220 00:16:10,515 --> 00:16:14,275 Speaker 1: also I did many other things. Jewish people who live 221 00:16:14,355 --> 00:16:17,595 Speaker 1: in the United States don't love Israel enough. Does that 222 00:16:17,635 --> 00:16:20,675 Speaker 1: make sense to you. I'm not talking about Orthodox Jews. 223 00:16:20,995 --> 00:16:23,715 Speaker 1: I believe we got of the Jewish vote, and it 224 00:16:23,755 --> 00:16:27,355 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense. It just seems strange to me. Unquote 225 00:16:29,795 --> 00:16:33,355 Speaker 1: translation of that quote and of the social media post 226 00:16:33,435 --> 00:16:39,675 Speaker 1: yesterday courtesy a gentile me. As president, he gave Israel gifts, 227 00:16:40,035 --> 00:16:42,435 Speaker 1: he was nice to them, when you know he could 228 00:16:42,475 --> 00:16:46,835 Speaker 1: have been openly anti Israeli or anti Semitic. You'd think 229 00:16:46,875 --> 00:16:51,995 Speaker 1: they would fawn over him for not openly hating them. 230 00:16:52,075 --> 00:16:54,355 Speaker 1: Let's go out of sequence and cut to that money quote. 231 00:16:54,595 --> 00:16:57,275 Speaker 1: US Jews have to get their act together and appreciate 232 00:16:57,315 --> 00:16:59,595 Speaker 1: what they have in Israel before it is too late. 233 00:16:59,675 --> 00:17:03,235 Speaker 1: End quote. This is not subtle. It is obviously a 234 00:17:03,355 --> 00:17:06,955 Speaker 1: threat or a threat coached as a warning. Either way, 235 00:17:06,995 --> 00:17:10,275 Speaker 1: it is a repeat of the way Trump's diseased mind works. 236 00:17:10,755 --> 00:17:14,355 Speaker 1: People hate you. I helped you. You haven't been grateful enough. 237 00:17:14,675 --> 00:17:18,915 Speaker 1: You're Jewish, Israel as your country. I helped Israel. If 238 00:17:18,955 --> 00:17:21,875 Speaker 1: I'm not there to help Israel, you'll be sorry. So 239 00:17:21,915 --> 00:17:27,395 Speaker 1: you better start supporting me more or else. But maybe 240 00:17:27,395 --> 00:17:30,115 Speaker 1: the most important part of that post is the seemingly 241 00:17:30,275 --> 00:17:35,035 Speaker 1: throwaway reference to the evangelicals. It actually explains the whole thing. 242 00:17:35,595 --> 00:17:42,035 Speaker 1: Trump says, quote our wonderful evangelicals. These, of course, are 243 00:17:42,075 --> 00:17:44,435 Speaker 1: the religious nuts who will support him no matter what, 244 00:17:44,595 --> 00:17:48,795 Speaker 1: because they think he is part of the most screwball 245 00:17:48,955 --> 00:17:55,195 Speaker 1: Bible prophecy of all the screwball Bible prophecies. They are 246 00:17:55,355 --> 00:17:58,315 Speaker 1: far more appreciative of his support for Israel than our 247 00:17:58,395 --> 00:18:02,035 Speaker 1: American Jews. The Trumpian tell, though, is adding the phrase 248 00:18:02,555 --> 00:18:07,915 Speaker 1: somewhat surprisingly. This is his standard misdirection, making it seem 249 00:18:07,955 --> 00:18:12,115 Speaker 1: as if he doesn't understand something. Quote somewhat surprisingly always 250 00:18:12,155 --> 00:18:16,835 Speaker 1: means he understands it fully and realizes it's dark implications 251 00:18:16,955 --> 00:18:20,475 Speaker 1: and wants to distance himself from it and imply he 252 00:18:20,555 --> 00:18:26,115 Speaker 1: doesn't understand it. Somewhat surprisingly, and the obsession with Israel 253 00:18:26,155 --> 00:18:29,675 Speaker 1: on the part of those wonderful evangelicals is about as 254 00:18:29,795 --> 00:18:32,795 Speaker 1: dark as it gets. If you don't know this yet, 255 00:18:33,435 --> 00:18:38,475 Speaker 1: sit down. Four and a half years ago, Newsweek printed 256 00:18:38,475 --> 00:18:42,555 Speaker 1: this remarkable headline quote Trump will start the end of 257 00:18:42,595 --> 00:18:48,715 Speaker 1: the world, claim evangelicals who support him. Evangelical Christians believe 258 00:18:48,795 --> 00:18:52,395 Speaker 1: in quote end Times what they call prophecy and what 259 00:18:52,435 --> 00:18:56,795 Speaker 1: others call stuff somebody made up to fleece the gullible Jerusalem, 260 00:18:56,795 --> 00:19:00,115 Speaker 1: where Trump moved the American Embassy is the centerpiece of 261 00:19:00,115 --> 00:19:03,235 Speaker 1: this fire and brimstone saga. Let me quote some of 262 00:19:03,235 --> 00:19:07,195 Speaker 1: the Newsweek piece about this whole nonsense quote. What kick 263 00:19:07,275 --> 00:19:11,035 Speaker 1: starts the End Times into motion is Israel's political boundaries 264 00:19:11,275 --> 00:19:15,395 Speaker 1: being re established to what God promised the Israelites according 265 00:19:15,435 --> 00:19:18,155 Speaker 1: to the Bible. Nate Pile, a pastor and author of 266 00:19:18,155 --> 00:19:22,795 Speaker 1: a book about Jesus, told Newsweek most evangelical subscribe to 267 00:19:22,835 --> 00:19:26,435 Speaker 1: a belief in pre millennialism, the belief that the second 268 00:19:26,515 --> 00:19:29,315 Speaker 1: Coming of Christ will begin a one thousand year period 269 00:19:29,515 --> 00:19:32,675 Speaker 1: where Christ will rule over a peaceful and prosperous Earth, 270 00:19:32,795 --> 00:19:37,035 Speaker 1: Neil J. Young, a religion historian, told Newsweek. Young, who 271 00:19:37,035 --> 00:19:40,315 Speaker 1: holds a pH d in history from Colombia, writes frequently 272 00:19:40,315 --> 00:19:44,755 Speaker 1: on evangelical culture and politics, quoting him again. Israel is 273 00:19:44,755 --> 00:19:47,315 Speaker 1: a key part of this story too, as Christians believe 274 00:19:47,635 --> 00:19:53,595 Speaker 1: that events there are fundamental to bringing about the end Times. Meanwhile, 275 00:19:53,635 --> 00:19:56,595 Speaker 1: the evangelical belief in the end Times also includes the 276 00:19:56,595 --> 00:20:01,435 Speaker 1: eventual conversion to Christianity of the Jewish people. The scenario 277 00:20:01,555 --> 00:20:04,635 Speaker 1: begins when Christ comes to Earth to take the living 278 00:20:04,795 --> 00:20:07,755 Speaker 1: Christians who believe in him to Heaven and resurrect the 279 00:20:07,835 --> 00:20:12,835 Speaker 1: dead who were true Christians at event called the Rapture. Afterwards, 280 00:20:12,915 --> 00:20:15,715 Speaker 1: it is believed that the Antichrist will Ryan reign on 281 00:20:15,795 --> 00:20:20,555 Speaker 1: Earth during the seven year period of Tribulation. You didn't 282 00:20:20,555 --> 00:20:24,635 Speaker 1: miss hear anything in there. The evangelical fascination with Jerusalem 283 00:20:24,635 --> 00:20:30,875 Speaker 1: is about Christ returning and converting the Jews or killing them. 284 00:20:30,915 --> 00:20:33,515 Speaker 1: There is a history professor at the University of North 285 00:20:33,555 --> 00:20:37,595 Speaker 1: Texas named Elizabeth Oldmixon who studies nothing but this bizarre 286 00:20:37,635 --> 00:20:41,595 Speaker 1: connection between the Evangelicals and Israel and now Trump. Vox 287 00:20:41,755 --> 00:20:46,035 Speaker 1: interviewed her and got to the whole convert or die thing, 288 00:20:47,035 --> 00:20:49,955 Speaker 1: quoting her, They believe that before Christ will return, there 289 00:20:49,955 --> 00:20:53,475 Speaker 1: will be a tribulation where Christ defeats evil. There will 290 00:20:53,475 --> 00:20:56,955 Speaker 1: be natural disasters and wars, and perhaps an Antichrist, as 291 00:20:56,995 --> 00:20:59,595 Speaker 1: the Book of Revelations notes. Then at the end of 292 00:20:59,595 --> 00:21:03,355 Speaker 1: that period, the people of the Mosaic Covenant, including the Jews, 293 00:21:03,835 --> 00:21:10,635 Speaker 1: will can vert. Then after their conversion, the great Millennium starts. Now, 294 00:21:10,675 --> 00:21:15,235 Speaker 1: the Vox reporter quite naturally asked the following question, and uh, 295 00:21:15,315 --> 00:21:18,675 Speaker 1: what about the people who don't convert? What becomes of them? 296 00:21:18,795 --> 00:21:22,675 Speaker 1: Professor Old Nixon answered, quote, Well, according to the evangelicals 297 00:21:22,715 --> 00:21:24,955 Speaker 1: who believe this, they'll end up with the rest of 298 00:21:24,955 --> 00:21:27,995 Speaker 1: the unsaved, which means they'll be wiped out and sent 299 00:21:28,115 --> 00:21:33,035 Speaker 1: to Hell. Nice huh. Trump's support for Israel is based 300 00:21:33,075 --> 00:21:35,955 Speaker 1: on his need for evangelicals to support him, and the 301 00:21:35,995 --> 00:21:41,435 Speaker 1: evangelicals support Israel because later on in episode two, all 302 00:21:41,475 --> 00:21:45,115 Speaker 1: the Jews are converted or killed. So, if you want 303 00:21:45,115 --> 00:21:47,715 Speaker 1: to take the darkest view of that last sentence from Trump, 304 00:21:48,075 --> 00:21:50,675 Speaker 1: us Jews have to get their act together and appreciate 305 00:21:50,715 --> 00:21:53,635 Speaker 1: what they have in Israel before it is too late. 306 00:21:55,035 --> 00:22:00,355 Speaker 1: He's literally warning them about annihilation now if that interpretation 307 00:22:00,435 --> 00:22:04,555 Speaker 1: seems extreme to you, well maybe, but consider some at 308 00:22:04,875 --> 00:22:09,835 Speaker 1: Trumpian history on the subject of Trump and Hitler. Hitler 309 00:22:09,955 --> 00:22:14,475 Speaker 1: was first invoked by Hitler, was first made relevant by Trump. 310 00:22:15,955 --> 00:22:19,555 Speaker 1: It is not quite two months yet since his former 311 00:22:19,595 --> 00:22:23,155 Speaker 1: chief of staff, General Kelly, demanded to know why, quote 312 00:22:23,195 --> 00:22:25,635 Speaker 1: you effing generals, Why can't you be like the German 313 00:22:25,675 --> 00:22:29,195 Speaker 1: generals in World War Two? And when challenged with the 314 00:22:29,235 --> 00:22:31,395 Speaker 1: fact by Kelly that it was German generals who tried 315 00:22:31,435 --> 00:22:35,675 Speaker 1: to kill Hitler, Trump shouted Kelly down and said, no, no, no, 316 00:22:35,755 --> 00:22:38,675 Speaker 1: they were totally loyal to him. And it is four 317 00:22:38,755 --> 00:22:41,155 Speaker 1: years since Trump, at a commemoration of the dead of 318 00:22:41,195 --> 00:22:45,475 Speaker 1: World War One, said to Kelly, quote, well, Hitler did 319 00:22:45,515 --> 00:22:47,995 Speaker 1: a lot of good things, and then talked about Hitler's 320 00:22:48,035 --> 00:22:52,595 Speaker 1: economic improvements. And it is thirty two years thirty two 321 00:22:52,675 --> 00:22:57,675 Speaker 1: years ago, last month since Marie Brenner wrote in Vanity Fair, 322 00:22:58,275 --> 00:23:00,595 Speaker 1: Vanna Trump told her lawyer that from time to time 323 00:23:00,595 --> 00:23:04,035 Speaker 1: her husband reads a book of Hitler's collected speeches, which 324 00:23:04,035 --> 00:23:07,515 Speaker 1: he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. And then 325 00:23:07,555 --> 00:23:10,915 Speaker 1: this reporter, Brenner asks Trump if his cousin John gave 326 00:23:10,995 --> 00:23:13,155 Speaker 1: him that book, and Trump says, actually, it was my 327 00:23:13,195 --> 00:23:15,915 Speaker 1: friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy 328 00:23:15,915 --> 00:23:18,675 Speaker 1: of mine comp And then it was Marty Davis who said, no, 329 00:23:18,795 --> 00:23:21,275 Speaker 1: he didn't give Trump that Hitler book Mine Coff. He 330 00:23:21,315 --> 00:23:24,395 Speaker 1: gave him Hitler's My New Order, which was Hitler's book 331 00:23:24,435 --> 00:23:26,675 Speaker 1: of his own favorite speeches. And Trump comes back and 332 00:23:26,715 --> 00:23:29,875 Speaker 1: then tells Marie Brenner if I had these speeches, and 333 00:23:29,875 --> 00:23:39,115 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that I do, I would never read them. 334 00:23:39,235 --> 00:23:43,435 Speaker 1: Most of that aired on October. I want to continue 335 00:23:43,435 --> 00:23:46,315 Speaker 1: this special edition about Trump and Nick Foentes and Kanye 336 00:23:46,435 --> 00:23:52,355 Speaker 1: West and anti Semitism by quoting Chris Solisza of CNN. 337 00:23:53,355 --> 00:23:57,835 Speaker 1: Rule number one of politics goes like this, Chris Roach recently, 338 00:23:58,835 --> 00:24:05,435 Speaker 1: don't compare anything to Nazi Germany. Just don't unquote. Totally 339 00:24:05,475 --> 00:24:10,395 Speaker 1: wrong and totally applicable here, because in September I said 340 00:24:10,395 --> 00:24:13,075 Speaker 1: we needed to face the reality and use the real 341 00:24:13,195 --> 00:24:17,795 Speaker 1: words that Trump, in his appearances at his campaign rallies 342 00:24:18,235 --> 00:24:23,835 Speaker 1: and the mixture of religious falsehood and cult worship, had 343 00:24:23,915 --> 00:24:27,555 Speaker 1: become America's Hitler, not that he had done what Hitler 344 00:24:27,595 --> 00:24:30,035 Speaker 1: had done, nor that he would get to do that, 345 00:24:30,475 --> 00:24:33,715 Speaker 1: but that we were now in a place where he 346 00:24:33,755 --> 00:24:47,635 Speaker 1: could more on that. Next, this is Countdown to conclude 347 00:24:47,675 --> 00:24:50,635 Speaker 1: this special edition of Countdown on the anti Semitism of 348 00:24:50,675 --> 00:24:54,275 Speaker 1: Donald Trump and his dinner with Nick Fuentes and Kanye West, 349 00:24:54,755 --> 00:24:58,595 Speaker 1: and what are clearly his deliberations going on inside that 350 00:24:58,755 --> 00:25:02,155 Speaker 1: semi human brain of his, that it may be time 351 00:25:02,195 --> 00:25:05,155 Speaker 1: to give himself fully to the politics of blaming Jewish 352 00:25:05,235 --> 00:25:08,875 Speaker 1: people and courting those who scapegoat them, and making this 353 00:25:08,995 --> 00:25:13,235 Speaker 1: the center of his next presidential campaign. This last part 354 00:25:13,355 --> 00:25:17,355 Speaker 1: I present nearly exactly as I first aired it on September. 355 00:25:18,555 --> 00:25:22,475 Speaker 1: It was harsh and true. Then it is harsh and 356 00:25:22,675 --> 00:25:28,035 Speaker 1: true and sadly a little bit more obvious. Now there 357 00:25:28,275 --> 00:25:32,915 Speaker 1: is an evil presence among us. The more desperate he gets, 358 00:25:33,595 --> 00:25:38,475 Speaker 1: the worst he gets. This is the formula that produced 359 00:25:38,555 --> 00:25:42,955 Speaker 1: Hitler in Germany in the twenties and thirties. This is 360 00:25:43,035 --> 00:26:06,555 Speaker 1: also the formula that could still produce a Hitler here today. 361 00:26:08,275 --> 00:26:12,035 Speaker 1: We must face the reality that Trump is America's Hitler. 362 00:26:13,275 --> 00:26:17,395 Speaker 1: We must use the real words. Now. There are no 363 00:26:17,475 --> 00:26:20,915 Speaker 1: more dog whistles as of now, as of this weekend passed. 364 00:26:20,955 --> 00:26:25,195 Speaker 1: As of this morning, they have begun to salute him 365 00:26:25,235 --> 00:26:29,115 Speaker 1: as others saluted Hitler. They have begun to play the 366 00:26:29,235 --> 00:26:32,435 Speaker 1: music and chant the slogans of Q and On. They 367 00:26:32,435 --> 00:26:35,315 Speaker 1: have begun to we've in the sing song melodies of 368 00:26:35,315 --> 00:26:40,875 Speaker 1: the televangelists and the Christo fascists. They have stopped pretending, 369 00:26:41,755 --> 00:26:48,875 Speaker 1: So too, must we stop pretending. America's Hitler is here. 370 00:26:50,835 --> 00:26:53,555 Speaker 1: We have to face the reality that if Trump had 371 00:26:53,595 --> 00:26:57,155 Speaker 1: not already chosen that path, Saturday night in Youngstown, Ohio, 372 00:26:57,235 --> 00:27:02,435 Speaker 1: he dropped the pretense and made it unmistakably clear. First 373 00:27:02,595 --> 00:27:05,515 Speaker 1: he saw the worst in the Republican Party and unleashed 374 00:27:05,555 --> 00:27:09,755 Speaker 1: its darkness and made the Republican Party his slaves. Then 375 00:27:09,755 --> 00:27:12,275 Speaker 1: he saw the worst in the Crystal Fascist movement and 376 00:27:12,395 --> 00:27:16,715 Speaker 1: unleashed its darkness and made the Cristo Fascist movement his slaves. 377 00:27:16,755 --> 00:27:19,555 Speaker 1: And now he has seen the worst in the q 378 00:27:19,755 --> 00:27:23,515 Speaker 1: and On cult and unleashed its darkness and made the 379 00:27:23,595 --> 00:27:28,675 Speaker 1: q and On cult his slaves. For the first time, Saturday, 380 00:27:28,675 --> 00:27:32,795 Speaker 1: Trump interwove the music of Q and On into his 381 00:27:32,835 --> 00:27:37,395 Speaker 1: apocalyptic speech in Fraud. And we have a president who 382 00:27:37,475 --> 00:27:42,835 Speaker 1: is cognitively impaired and in no condition to lead our country, 383 00:27:42,915 --> 00:27:48,715 Speaker 1: which may end up in World War three. We're a 384 00:27:48,835 --> 00:27:52,635 Speaker 1: nation that no longer has a free press, and has 385 00:27:53,235 --> 00:27:57,795 Speaker 1: no fair press any longer. Fake news is all you get, 386 00:27:58,635 --> 00:28:02,235 Speaker 1: and they are truly the enemy of the people. We 387 00:28:02,315 --> 00:28:05,715 Speaker 1: are a nation where free speech is no longer allowed. 388 00:28:05,915 --> 00:28:09,595 Speaker 1: And before that music not from Q and On, but 389 00:28:09,795 --> 00:28:14,315 Speaker 1: nearly identical to it, was over. Nearly the entirety of 390 00:28:14,315 --> 00:28:17,675 Speaker 1: that crowd was standing in front of Trump, each with 391 00:28:17,795 --> 00:28:22,075 Speaker 1: one arm in the air, with a forefinger extended, heads 392 00:28:22,235 --> 00:28:26,675 Speaker 1: bowed not just a seeg hile to Trump, but an 393 00:28:26,835 --> 00:28:31,635 Speaker 1: enduring one, lasting for a minute after excruciating minute, as 394 00:28:31,675 --> 00:28:36,115 Speaker 1: they swayed slowly to his words of hate and revenge 395 00:28:36,195 --> 00:28:39,755 Speaker 1: and persecution and his calls to violence and blood lust 396 00:28:39,795 --> 00:28:43,635 Speaker 1: and revolution. No longer just the most extreme and stomach 397 00:28:43,675 --> 00:28:47,395 Speaker 1: turning and anti American and fascistic political movement in our 398 00:28:47,515 --> 00:28:51,635 Speaker 1: nation's history, but now the result of the full horrible 399 00:28:51,715 --> 00:28:58,035 Speaker 1: combination of personal madness, religious fanaticism, vengeance fantasies, and delusional 400 00:28:58,195 --> 00:29:05,515 Speaker 1: cultism rolled into one man. It's a cult. It's a 401 00:29:05,755 --> 00:29:10,875 Speaker 1: radicalized cult preparing to wage war against this country. Not 402 00:29:11,275 --> 00:29:17,035 Speaker 1: political war, not symbolic war, not cultural war, not virtual war, 403 00:29:17,195 --> 00:29:23,355 Speaker 1: war itself, with blood, with murder, with scapegoats, with death 404 00:29:23,435 --> 00:29:27,395 Speaker 1: camps with presidents for life, and what would be for 405 00:29:27,515 --> 00:29:31,115 Speaker 1: this country at the end, at best, a struggle in 406 00:29:31,155 --> 00:29:34,915 Speaker 1: the future to somehow regain democracy in the future, to 407 00:29:34,955 --> 00:29:39,675 Speaker 1: somehow regain freedom, to somehow regain diversity, while a dictatorship 408 00:29:39,795 --> 00:29:44,035 Speaker 1: tightened its grip and went from declaring its opponents enemies 409 00:29:44,075 --> 00:29:47,875 Speaker 1: of the people, to declaring the elected president of the 410 00:29:47,955 --> 00:29:51,955 Speaker 1: United States and his government enemies of the people, and 411 00:29:51,995 --> 00:29:55,875 Speaker 1: to trying to get rid of all of them and 412 00:29:56,035 --> 00:30:00,275 Speaker 1: all of us. But the thugs and tyrants attacking our movement, 413 00:30:00,355 --> 00:30:03,755 Speaker 1: and there's never been a movement even close in the 414 00:30:03,835 --> 00:30:07,315 Speaker 1: history of the United It States have no idea of 415 00:30:07,395 --> 00:30:19,955 Speaker 1: the sleeping giant that they have awoken. Trump did not 416 00:30:20,155 --> 00:30:23,795 Speaker 1: cross a line. Saturday night in Youngstown, Ohio. He erased one. 417 00:30:24,355 --> 00:30:27,475 Speaker 1: It is not the ultimate line. It is the penultimate one. 418 00:30:27,955 --> 00:30:30,275 Speaker 1: There are still ways to prevent him, and ways to 419 00:30:30,395 --> 00:30:34,155 Speaker 1: forestall the horror and the destruction of all we call America. 420 00:30:34,675 --> 00:30:38,435 Speaker 1: But Saturday night he climaxed a week of stochastic terror threats, 421 00:30:38,435 --> 00:30:41,115 Speaker 1: in a week of movement towards the full embrace of 422 00:30:41,115 --> 00:30:44,315 Speaker 1: the Q and on madness Saturday night, he made it 423 00:30:44,395 --> 00:30:50,875 Speaker 1: unavoidable and inescapable. It is Christo fascism or America. It 424 00:30:51,035 --> 00:30:56,995 Speaker 1: is q and On or America. It is Trump or America. 425 00:30:57,715 --> 00:31:04,315 Speaker 1: And our fight, our last chance, starts with this. We 426 00:31:04,675 --> 00:31:09,275 Speaker 1: have to face the reality that Trump is America's Hitler 427 00:31:09,795 --> 00:31:14,355 Speaker 1: and is now openly emulating Hitler and his most venomous 428 00:31:14,395 --> 00:31:20,995 Speaker 1: call to dictatorship. One people, one nation, one fewer. We 429 00:31:21,075 --> 00:31:24,875 Speaker 1: are one movement, one people, one family, and one glorious 430 00:31:24,915 --> 00:31:29,675 Speaker 1: American nation. Once the comparison between Trump and Hitler could 431 00:31:29,715 --> 00:31:33,555 Speaker 1: be misinterpreted as hyperbole and alarmism and political science fiction, 432 00:31:33,595 --> 00:31:37,155 Speaker 1: it was Godwin's law wearing orange makeup. The first to 433 00:31:37,195 --> 00:31:41,355 Speaker 1: invoke Hitler automatically loses the debate. And while some of 434 00:31:41,395 --> 00:31:44,315 Speaker 1: us who actually knew Trump said, as it started seven 435 00:31:44,355 --> 00:31:47,035 Speaker 1: long years ago, that in him there were all the 436 00:31:47,075 --> 00:31:51,115 Speaker 1: elements of mass murder and of dictatorship, so many others thought. 437 00:31:51,115 --> 00:31:54,995 Speaker 1: The guardrails that have saved us since Aaron Burr made 438 00:31:54,995 --> 00:31:57,275 Speaker 1: it so that no man, no matter how insane, no 439 00:31:57,315 --> 00:31:59,995 Speaker 1: matter how power mad, no matter how devoid of the 440 00:32:00,035 --> 00:32:04,875 Speaker 1: slightest concern for anyone but himself, anything but himself, would 441 00:32:04,875 --> 00:32:10,275 Speaker 1: ever erase democracy in America. We who saw horror hoped 442 00:32:10,355 --> 00:32:13,395 Speaker 1: those who saw aberration were right and we were wrong. 443 00:32:15,355 --> 00:32:18,715 Speaker 1: But we were not wrong, and we are not wrong. 444 00:32:19,835 --> 00:32:23,315 Speaker 1: We must use the real words. We have to face 445 00:32:23,395 --> 00:32:30,155 Speaker 1: the reality that Trump is America's Hitler. This statement is 446 00:32:30,195 --> 00:32:33,635 Speaker 1: no longer alarmism. It is no longer theoretical, It is 447 00:32:33,675 --> 00:32:37,315 Speaker 1: no longer political science fiction. It is after Saturday Night 448 00:32:37,355 --> 00:32:41,635 Speaker 1: in Ohio, with his wild, orgiastic call to violence, with 449 00:32:41,675 --> 00:32:45,435 Speaker 1: the continuing beckoning for others to fight, to take back, 450 00:32:45,755 --> 00:32:50,075 Speaker 1: to terrorize, with the arms raised in mindless salute, and 451 00:32:50,115 --> 00:32:53,235 Speaker 1: the entirety of existence reduced to a song that makes 452 00:32:53,235 --> 00:32:56,755 Speaker 1: no sense, sung by cultists who make no sense, to 453 00:32:56,835 --> 00:33:00,315 Speaker 1: a messianic later who makes no sense. It is now 454 00:33:00,515 --> 00:33:09,435 Speaker 1: undeniable fact. Our Hitler is here now. The comparison always 455 00:33:09,435 --> 00:33:12,955 Speaker 1: repels many who would otherwise recognize and agree to its 456 00:33:12,955 --> 00:33:16,315 Speaker 1: component parts. It is easily rejected because the Hitler in 457 00:33:16,355 --> 00:33:20,355 Speaker 1: our collective human mind is the Hitler already forcing society 458 00:33:20,395 --> 00:33:24,355 Speaker 1: into uniforms and regimentation, and the Hitler already bombing England, 459 00:33:24,595 --> 00:33:28,275 Speaker 1: and the Hitler already gassing Jews. But Trump has so 460 00:33:28,315 --> 00:33:32,995 Speaker 1: far acted by neglect by proxy, by invoking and inspiring 461 00:33:33,035 --> 00:33:35,555 Speaker 1: evil in others, while being able to deny his own 462 00:33:35,595 --> 00:33:41,995 Speaker 1: total responsibility for that. Trump is not Hitler ninety not yet, 463 00:33:42,715 --> 00:33:47,235 Speaker 1: but he is Hitler nineteen thirty or ninety two. He 464 00:33:47,435 --> 00:33:50,955 Speaker 1: is Hitler at that stage when the most powerful, most 465 00:33:51,075 --> 00:33:54,755 Speaker 1: vicious right wing mainstream politician in Germany, Franz von Poppin, 466 00:33:55,035 --> 00:33:58,075 Speaker 1: could insist he and his colleagues could make Hitler chancellor 467 00:33:58,115 --> 00:34:01,315 Speaker 1: and then bury him. Quote within two months, we'll have 468 00:34:01,395 --> 00:34:05,755 Speaker 1: pushed Hitler into the corner. That was on Annuary nineteen 469 00:34:05,795 --> 00:34:09,395 Speaker 1: thirty three. Twenty eight days after that, the German parliament building, 470 00:34:09,395 --> 00:34:11,995 Speaker 1: the Reichstag, was burned to the ground, and twenty four 471 00:34:12,075 --> 00:34:14,995 Speaker 1: days after that the Parliament voted to give Hitler the 472 00:34:15,075 --> 00:34:18,235 Speaker 1: right to make his own laws and to end the 473 00:34:18,235 --> 00:34:21,315 Speaker 1: elections in Germany. And the sun would not rise again 474 00:34:21,395 --> 00:34:25,355 Speaker 1: until we have to face the reality that Trump is 475 00:34:25,395 --> 00:34:31,155 Speaker 1: America's Hitler, that Hitler the Hitler on the verge of 476 00:34:31,235 --> 00:34:36,715 Speaker 1: all night forever. Adolf Hitler first emerged in German politics 477 00:34:36,715 --> 00:34:40,995 Speaker 1: in the nineteen twenties, already deranged, already irrational, already a 478 00:34:41,035 --> 00:34:45,035 Speaker 1: threat to his country's democracy. And then he was thwarted 479 00:34:45,315 --> 00:34:48,035 Speaker 1: in his bid for total power, denied by the rule 480 00:34:48,155 --> 00:34:52,595 Speaker 1: of law from superseding the rule of law, and to 481 00:34:52,795 --> 00:34:56,875 Speaker 1: his instability and in humanity were added cultism and vengeance, 482 00:34:56,915 --> 00:35:00,075 Speaker 1: and the utter disregard of anything except his own wanton desires, 483 00:35:00,235 --> 00:35:03,435 Speaker 1: and a kind of rapture of rage that would no 484 00:35:03,515 --> 00:35:06,475 Speaker 1: longer be satisfied with total power, but now demanded that 485 00:35:06,555 --> 00:35:11,635 Speaker 1: power be gained by the destruction of others. The day 486 00:35:11,675 --> 00:35:14,515 Speaker 1: he seized control, he did not begin to imprison and 487 00:35:14,515 --> 00:35:18,235 Speaker 1: then murder millions of Jews and opponents and intellectuals and minorities. 488 00:35:18,275 --> 00:35:20,595 Speaker 1: The day he seized control, he did not start World 489 00:35:20,635 --> 00:35:23,195 Speaker 1: War two. The day he sees control, he did not 490 00:35:23,315 --> 00:35:26,395 Speaker 1: unleash the forces that would kill eighty five million people 491 00:35:26,435 --> 00:35:29,475 Speaker 1: in a world war. But the day he seized control, 492 00:35:29,995 --> 00:35:32,515 Speaker 1: he quickly made sure that the rules and laws and 493 00:35:32,555 --> 00:35:37,195 Speaker 1: powers of the institution of the state lost their usefulness 494 00:35:37,235 --> 00:35:42,155 Speaker 1: in stopping him. We have to face the reality that 495 00:35:42,195 --> 00:35:47,195 Speaker 1: Trump is America's Hitler. What we saw Saturday night in Youngstown, 496 00:35:47,195 --> 00:35:50,435 Speaker 1: Ohio was the last shreds of the Trump mask being 497 00:35:50,515 --> 00:35:53,195 Speaker 1: torn away, and the last barrier between Trump and Q 498 00:35:53,355 --> 00:35:56,555 Speaker 1: and On being torn away, and the last distinction between 499 00:35:56,595 --> 00:35:59,915 Speaker 1: Trump and another Hitler being torn away, and the last 500 00:35:59,995 --> 00:36:03,755 Speaker 1: hesitation to make their plans clear being torn away and 501 00:36:03,835 --> 00:36:10,395 Speaker 1: also the start of something within literally hours. At another 502 00:36:10,515 --> 00:36:14,155 Speaker 1: rally yesterday for the Republican candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, 503 00:36:14,475 --> 00:36:18,955 Speaker 1: Doug Mastriano, a crystal fascist called Lance Wall now had 504 00:36:18,995 --> 00:36:24,115 Speaker 1: only to ask, and the crowd there in Pennsylvania raised 505 00:36:24,155 --> 00:36:27,515 Speaker 1: all of their arms and grunted along with this poisonous 506 00:36:27,715 --> 00:36:33,195 Speaker 1: mixture of religious insanity, fascism, war fantasies, and Q and on. 507 00:36:33,875 --> 00:36:35,475 Speaker 1: And we'll do that if I've been the right hand 508 00:36:35,475 --> 00:36:38,635 Speaker 1: in the air on the count three. If you're willing 509 00:36:38,675 --> 00:36:41,515 Speaker 1: to do this, can you say what they said at 510 00:36:41,515 --> 00:36:47,795 Speaker 1: Gettysburg when you see us lined up as sweep down 511 00:36:47,835 --> 00:36:55,915 Speaker 1: the head to victory as that indeed Pennsylvania will be 512 00:36:56,195 --> 00:36:59,035 Speaker 1: like the Little round time and America will have a 513 00:36:59,115 --> 00:37:07,995 Speaker 1: new birth of as three. We have to face the 514 00:37:08,035 --> 00:37:12,755 Speaker 1: reality that Trump is America's hitler, and we have to 515 00:37:12,755 --> 00:37:15,475 Speaker 1: face another reality, the one expressed by the author of 516 00:37:15,515 --> 00:37:19,355 Speaker 1: the political insider book This Town, Mark Liebovich. Mr. Leebovich 517 00:37:19,435 --> 00:37:22,115 Speaker 1: quoted a former Republican congressman who has seen this coming 518 00:37:22,595 --> 00:37:25,995 Speaker 1: and who warned, quote, look, we have no plan for 519 00:37:26,035 --> 00:37:31,835 Speaker 1: this except sitting around hoping he dies. We must accept 520 00:37:31,835 --> 00:37:33,995 Speaker 1: the fact that the day in the near future is 521 00:37:34,075 --> 00:37:37,755 Speaker 1: now visible when even the most drastic steps against Trump 522 00:37:37,795 --> 00:37:40,595 Speaker 1: will not stop him. We have to look at the 523 00:37:40,635 --> 00:37:44,275 Speaker 1: country around us today, right now September nine, twenty two, 524 00:37:44,315 --> 00:37:45,955 Speaker 1: and we have to admit that, as in Germany and 525 00:37:46,035 --> 00:37:51,235 Speaker 1: ninety three, our rules and our laws and our powers 526 00:37:51,355 --> 00:37:54,995 Speaker 1: of our institutions of our state are beginning to lose 527 00:37:55,075 --> 00:38:01,395 Speaker 1: their usefulness in stopping Trump and the Christo fascists and 528 00:38:01,435 --> 00:38:07,435 Speaker 1: the q and Ons and the Republicans. The judiciary has 529 00:38:07,475 --> 00:38:10,515 Speaker 1: already compromised and losing its usefulness in stopping Trump. A 530 00:38:10,595 --> 00:38:14,555 Speaker 1: judge he appointed has overruled the laws of this country 531 00:38:14,595 --> 00:38:19,075 Speaker 1: protecting us against espionage and nuclear kleptomania and said no, 532 00:38:19,315 --> 00:38:22,235 Speaker 1: he was the victim. Another judge will now act as 533 00:38:22,275 --> 00:38:26,035 Speaker 1: Special Master and delay any prosecution of Trump for his 534 00:38:26,155 --> 00:38:31,115 Speaker 1: crimes until December. At least six judges Trump appointed will 535 00:38:31,195 --> 00:38:35,195 Speaker 1: hear the appeal of the Special Master case. Three Supreme 536 00:38:35,235 --> 00:38:38,275 Speaker 1: Court judges Trump appointed would hear the appeal. After that. 537 00:38:40,035 --> 00:38:43,795 Speaker 1: The elections are already compromised and losing their usefulness in 538 00:38:43,835 --> 00:38:46,515 Speaker 1: stopping Trump. In six weeks, we will hold elections, and 539 00:38:46,555 --> 00:38:49,115 Speaker 1: we will permit at least some people to assume office 540 00:38:49,715 --> 00:38:53,115 Speaker 1: that control the elections. People who have sworn loyalty not 541 00:38:53,235 --> 00:38:55,795 Speaker 1: to this country but to Trump. People who are committed 542 00:38:55,795 --> 00:38:58,195 Speaker 1: not to fair elections that they might win and they 543 00:38:58,275 --> 00:39:01,035 Speaker 1: might lose, but to elections that are legitimate only if 544 00:39:01,035 --> 00:39:04,675 Speaker 1: Trump wins, and can be ignored or overturned or red 545 00:39:04,755 --> 00:39:07,115 Speaker 1: if Trump loses. People who might as well have been 546 00:39:07,115 --> 00:39:09,195 Speaker 1: in that crowd in Ohio Saturday night, and in that 547 00:39:09,235 --> 00:39:12,715 Speaker 1: crowd in Pennsylvania Sunday afternoon, their eyes closed in the 548 00:39:12,755 --> 00:39:15,955 Speaker 1: presence of their God Trump, their fore fingers raised in 549 00:39:16,035 --> 00:39:20,235 Speaker 1: mindless salute to their God Trump, their poisoned minds dedicated 550 00:39:20,235 --> 00:39:26,635 Speaker 1: to vengeance on behalf of their God Trump. The legislative 551 00:39:26,675 --> 00:39:30,835 Speaker 1: branch is already compromised and losing its usefulness in stopping Trump. 552 00:39:31,035 --> 00:39:34,235 Speaker 1: If the Republicans take the House, they will not just 553 00:39:34,475 --> 00:39:38,395 Speaker 1: stop the January six Commission, They will pervert it and 554 00:39:38,555 --> 00:39:42,475 Speaker 1: use it to prove that Trump was the victim, and 555 00:39:42,555 --> 00:39:45,235 Speaker 1: the Proud Boys were victims, and the oath Keepers were victims, 556 00:39:45,475 --> 00:39:48,195 Speaker 1: and the committee should impeach the Attorney General and Biden 557 00:39:48,555 --> 00:39:52,235 Speaker 1: and free every seditionist scum involved in every component of 558 00:39:52,275 --> 00:39:57,075 Speaker 1: every attempted coup. The Republican Party has already compromised and 559 00:39:57,195 --> 00:39:59,515 Speaker 1: is losing its usefulness in stopping Trump. It has been 560 00:39:59,555 --> 00:40:02,875 Speaker 1: subsumed by Trump. If Trump has now empraised Q and On, 561 00:40:03,155 --> 00:40:04,995 Speaker 1: and q and On is a cult, the tru has 562 00:40:05,035 --> 00:40:07,955 Speaker 1: become a cult, and his Republican Party is a cult. 563 00:40:08,195 --> 00:40:11,595 Speaker 1: The Republican Party has cut its connection to democracy or 564 00:40:11,675 --> 00:40:15,235 Speaker 1: public service or any policy other than power. And some 565 00:40:15,275 --> 00:40:18,635 Speaker 1: political figures still believe the Republican Party will act to 566 00:40:18,875 --> 00:40:22,275 Speaker 1: stop Trump when in point of fact, Trump brings them 567 00:40:22,435 --> 00:40:25,595 Speaker 1: power and they ask no other questions, just like the 568 00:40:25,635 --> 00:40:28,995 Speaker 1: German Conservatives of nineteen thirty three asked no other questions 569 00:40:29,635 --> 00:40:32,995 Speaker 1: until Hitler started sending some of them to the camps. 570 00:40:34,315 --> 00:40:37,275 Speaker 1: The only Republicans who make the slightest motions against Trump 571 00:40:37,315 --> 00:40:40,075 Speaker 1: do so by trying to out trump him, like De 572 00:40:40,195 --> 00:40:44,315 Speaker 1: Santis and the Human Traffic, or even more ominously, ending 573 00:40:44,355 --> 00:40:47,195 Speaker 1: half of his speeches by telling his audience to put 574 00:40:47,235 --> 00:40:50,835 Speaker 1: on the armor of God, or Masstriano and his proxy 575 00:40:50,875 --> 00:40:53,515 Speaker 1: Wall now yesterday, mixing Q and On and religion and 576 00:40:53,555 --> 00:41:00,355 Speaker 1: the Civil War into one horrible recipe for theocracy. What 577 00:41:00,595 --> 00:41:03,475 Speaker 1: is left to us, who want peace and who want democracy, 578 00:41:03,515 --> 00:41:06,155 Speaker 1: and who want elections and who want an America in 579 00:41:06,195 --> 00:41:10,755 Speaker 1: which no one is killed were sent to a camp 580 00:41:10,795 --> 00:41:15,515 Speaker 1: because they non violently oppose any politician. Our last plan, 581 00:41:15,995 --> 00:41:19,035 Speaker 1: our only plan for this except sitting around hoping he dies, 582 00:41:20,035 --> 00:41:23,475 Speaker 1: is the executive branch. And as it fell to Joe 583 00:41:23,475 --> 00:41:27,955 Speaker 1: Biden to defeat Trump in an election to save American democracy, 584 00:41:27,995 --> 00:41:31,115 Speaker 1: it falls again to him to use the means at 585 00:41:31,235 --> 00:41:35,195 Speaker 1: his disposal to defeat Trump. As he waits to take 586 00:41:35,235 --> 00:41:39,515 Speaker 1: the penultimate step to destroy American democracy and to propel 587 00:41:39,555 --> 00:41:44,955 Speaker 1: this country into chaos and horror and nightmare. Trump is 588 00:41:45,635 --> 00:41:48,675 Speaker 1: the proverbial, clear and present danger to the safety of 589 00:41:48,675 --> 00:41:51,715 Speaker 1: this nation and every one of her citizens. He must 590 00:41:51,755 --> 00:41:55,355 Speaker 1: be treated as we would treat any other terrorists loose 591 00:41:55,435 --> 00:42:01,075 Speaker 1: in our midst. Biden's Attorney general spent Saturday at Ellis Island, 592 00:42:01,115 --> 00:42:03,715 Speaker 1: fighting back tears and pleading we are all in this together, 593 00:42:03,835 --> 00:42:06,475 Speaker 1: we are all America. And instead of realizing the people 594 00:42:06,555 --> 00:42:09,435 Speaker 1: he is pleading with want to kill him and you 595 00:42:09,555 --> 00:42:12,675 Speaker 1: and me, And instead of pleading, he should be prosecuting, 596 00:42:12,875 --> 00:42:15,555 Speaker 1: even if it means ignoring the Florida Court, or ignoring 597 00:42:15,595 --> 00:42:20,115 Speaker 1: the Appeals Court, or ignoring the Supreme Court. And if 598 00:42:20,155 --> 00:42:22,555 Speaker 1: this still does not end the terror. Joe Biden must 599 00:42:22,595 --> 00:42:27,675 Speaker 1: act against the terrorist Trump threatens this nation and everyone 600 00:42:27,715 --> 00:42:32,995 Speaker 1: in it today, right now, the next January six is 601 00:42:33,035 --> 00:42:37,395 Speaker 1: being organized while we watch, and we respond with memes. 602 00:42:39,675 --> 00:42:42,155 Speaker 1: And if Biden acts, and if what follows are the 603 00:42:42,395 --> 00:42:45,195 Speaker 1: riots in the streets promised by Lindsey Graham or the 604 00:42:45,275 --> 00:42:48,915 Speaker 1: quote big trouble from the Sleeping Giant summoned Saturday night 605 00:42:48,955 --> 00:42:51,715 Speaker 1: by Trump, Biden must respond with the full power of 606 00:42:51,755 --> 00:42:54,395 Speaker 1: the United States of America and face the rioters in 607 00:42:54,435 --> 00:42:58,515 Speaker 1: the streets, and face the sleeping Giant, and face the 608 00:42:58,515 --> 00:43:01,715 Speaker 1: Trump Q and on Christo fascist cultists. And in defense 609 00:43:02,075 --> 00:43:07,035 Speaker 1: of everything this country has ever meant and everything it 610 00:43:07,195 --> 00:43:13,075 Speaker 1: is supposed to mean. To crush them, we must use 611 00:43:13,395 --> 00:43:18,755 Speaker 1: the real words. We must face the reality that Trump 612 00:43:19,395 --> 00:43:36,595 Speaker 1: is America's hitler. I've done all the damage I can 613 00:43:36,635 --> 00:43:38,675 Speaker 1: do here. Thank you for listening.
