Speaker 1: Welcome to political beat down. I've been mysellis joined by
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen. Cohen, We've got a lot to discuss. I
Speaker 1: have to get your reaction to that unhinged, disastrous speech
Speaker 1: Donald Trump gave in Las Vegas, where he told the
Speaker 1: jury I told the jury, told the crowd He's been
Speaker 1: in front of a lot of juries lately. He told
Speaker 1: the crowd, I don't care about you. I just won
Speaker 1: your vote. He then said, why is the media so
Speaker 1: concerned about your health in the heat. They should be
Speaker 1: concerned about my health. He then went on to tell
Speaker 1: stories about how because of some relationship he believes he
Speaker 1: has with Mit although he didn't make the connection though,
Speaker 1: but because his uncle was a professor there in nineteen
Speaker 1: seventy five, that that helped him come up with this
Speaker 1: theory that if an electrical bote is sinking, that it
Speaker 1: would electrocute him, and how he has to think about
Speaker 1: if he's rather if he'd rather be electrocuted versus eaten
Speaker 1: by sharks, and he chose electrocution.
Speaker 2: And I'm pretty sure that every one of our every
Speaker 2: one of our brigaders is saying, what's the difference. You know,
Speaker 2: we're happy either way. For him, which you have a
Speaker 2: way floats his boat, you know.
Speaker 1: And then, in an ultimate kind of Jim Jones moment,
Speaker 1: he talked to the crowd about wouldn't you rather unlive yourself?
Speaker 1: I don't even want to say the word. What did
Speaker 1: you rather unlive yourself than vote for Joe Biden? I mean,
Speaker 1: this was as unhinged as as it gets. But Cohen,
Speaker 1: I feel that there's something different, though, happening right now,
Speaker 1: in the sense that with Trump's criminal conviction, I think
Speaker 1: it rocked the country in a little bit of that
Speaker 1: was an unexpected if you will. Obviously there are ramifications
Speaker 1: that come with being a convicted felon. I mean, I
Speaker 1: think you know that. But I think with respect to
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, I think I think with Donald Trump, though,
Speaker 1: the there are more eyes on what he's doing now
Speaker 1: in a different way, because I think it people were
Speaker 1: relying on legacy media and corporate media to give them
Speaker 1: the story, and when the trial didn't come out the
Speaker 1: way corporate media said it was going to, I think
Speaker 1: people say, who whoa, whoa, let me let me. People
Speaker 1: are like, let me take a look here. So I've
Speaker 1: just noticed and I don't know if you're noticing the
Speaker 1: same thing. We you and I have been covering these
Speaker 1: unhinged traveling fascist circus events that he calls rallies all
Speaker 1: the time. But the reaction to this one has I
Speaker 1: just think been been different. Cohen, sorry for saying that
Speaker 1: at the outset, I love you, brother, No, that's.
Speaker 2: What I have absolutely Listen, I'm the first one to
Speaker 2: make fun of the whole damn thing in the first place. Look,
Speaker 2: I don't think that there's a single person that is
Speaker 2: joining us today that has joined us since we started
Speaker 2: the beat down. I don't think there's a single person
Speaker 2: that has joined me on my Maya Culpa podcast, which
Speaker 2: is now like four years old, that doesn't believe that
Speaker 2: Donald Trump has become more and more and more unhinged
Speaker 2: over time. The in uh Nevada, which I think was
Speaker 2: they said about one hundred and ten degrees forgetting about
Speaker 2: the humidity, and they decided to do this rally at
Speaker 2: noontime that correctly, when the sun is overhead, all of
Speaker 2: a sudden, supposedly the teleprompter went out. Well, I can
Speaker 2: tell I can tell each and every one of our
Speaker 2: brigaders right now that I don't have a teleprompter neither
Speaker 2: does Ben. As we sit and we discuss with you
Speaker 2: the various different issues of the day, as we discussed
Speaker 2: with you our opinion on the unhinged Mandarin Mussolini himself
Speaker 2: if you put me in front of a mic right now,
Speaker 2: because my teleprompter had gone out. But didn't he read
Speaker 2: the script before or was he going to do what
Speaker 2: he always does, which is just laying it. I can
Speaker 2: just talk about anything. And that's why he went ahead
Speaker 2: and he started talking about the first crazy thing that
Speaker 2: came to his mind, boats and sharks. Why because he
Speaker 2: probably saw that there were three shark attacks that had
Speaker 2: just taken place and it was on his mind. He
Speaker 2: you know, it's not like he's a long term thinker.
Speaker 2: Why not turn around and use that time to talk
Speaker 2: about can't talk about the economy because our economy is
Speaker 2: fucking roaring. Can't talk about unemployment because we have the
Speaker 2: lowest unemployment you know, in at least the last one
Speaker 2: hundred years. Uh, you know, you can't talk about I mean,
Speaker 2: you can't talk about row the way you can't talk
Speaker 2: about MEPhI Prestone. You can't talk about women's reproductive rights
Speaker 2: because well, you are the one who actually takes credit
Speaker 2: for the overturning of it. I mean, I'm trying to
Speaker 2: think on some of the things that he could talk
Speaker 2: about the border, right, Well, the problem with that is,
Speaker 2: you know, you had a couple of Republicans that had
Speaker 2: incredibly comprehensive, a very very conservative, comprehensive plan what needs
Speaker 2: to be done. Well, you know that it's not really
Speaker 2: going to pan out too well for him either, considering
Speaker 2: they elected not to go forward with it because that
Speaker 2: would give President Biden a victory, one that could potentially
Speaker 2: be used in the upcoming November election. And so what's
Speaker 2: left batteries, windmills, boats that are running on battery power alone.
Speaker 2: Really it's funny because I haven't seen that boat. And
Speaker 2: you know, I kind of I kind of like boats.
Speaker 2: You know, I haven't seen a single boat that's operated
Speaker 2: solely on batteries other than the ones that are in
Speaker 2: the you know that little swimming pool in Central Park
Speaker 2: that you rent for like ten bucks an hour, and
Speaker 2: you know the motorized sail boats that you just you know,
Speaker 2: race with other people. I don't know what the hell
Speaker 2: he's talking about. It's just a another example of how
Speaker 2: little he really knows about America, how little he actually
Speaker 2: cares about knowing about America, And what are the things?
Speaker 2: I mean, how about talking maybe about climate change? Since
Speaker 2: your supporters are dropping there like flies right because of
Speaker 2: the heat, the fact that I don't know the fact
Speaker 2: that right now it's the hottest recorded month of June.
Speaker 2: I think ever, right, I mean that doesn't turn around
Speaker 2: and tell you something. Maybe talk about, you know, what's
Speaker 2: happening across the country as a result of the climate change,
Speaker 2: the number of NATO's and hurricanes and natural disasters. Maybe
Speaker 2: talk about something that benefits the country other than talking
Speaker 2: about your gripes and the gripes of you know, the
Speaker 2: Maga Wright. I don't know. It's just the level of
Speaker 2: distinction between the two individuals, whether it's about acknowledging the
Speaker 2: Justice Department, acknowledging the courts, which, of course, the dichotomy
Speaker 2: between the two of them is as great as the
Speaker 2: North versus the South. His regard for veterans versus Joe
Speaker 2: Biden's I mean, his relationship meaning Joe Biden with his
Speaker 2: son Hunter during these very tumultuous times, versus the relationship
Speaker 2: that Trump has with his children. I don't know, I
Speaker 2: really don't know what to say. And I'm not just
Speaker 2: embarrassed by these supporters, I'm nauseated by them. And I
Speaker 2: think it's the first time, you know, in America's history,
Speaker 2: maybe other than the Civil War, that the two sides
Speaker 2: it goes more than just disagreeing with one another. The
Speaker 2: hatred between the two sides is so significant. It's so
Speaker 2: significant that I don't know how as a country. Forget
Speaker 2: about whether it's a Trump administration. The answer then is
Speaker 2: an absolute impossibility. I just don't know how the country
Speaker 2: heals itself and at a respect between various opinions doesn't
Speaker 2: end up tearing us all apart.
Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing that you said very famously a
Speaker 1: week or two ago. There are no two sides though,
Speaker 1: when it comes to the truth. And so for the
Speaker 1: side that embraces law and order, which is the pro
Speaker 1: democracy community, that embraces the way our jury system works,
Speaker 1: that embraces an America that is aligned with NATO and
Speaker 1: our traditional allies, and America that embraces freedoms women's reproductive rights,
Speaker 1: it is that side. The pro freedom, pro democracy side
Speaker 1: cannot be compromising with a side though that is talking
Speaker 1: about how they cheer on convicted felon, and they want
Speaker 1: to bring down the FBI and the DOJ, and they
Speaker 1: spread the lies about J sixth or as Donald Trump
Speaker 1: said when he's spoke in Vegas, he goes the J
Speaker 1: six hostages, he says, are the most horrifically treated people ever.
Speaker 1: And that's not a legitimate side in normal discourse that
Speaker 1: can or should take place in our country. So, to
Speaker 1: answer your question, Michael Cohen, what is important in powamount
Speaker 1: is that we continue to discuss values and principles that
Speaker 1: have been enduring here and to not back down, to
Speaker 1: not flinch, to not blink, to not buy into the
Speaker 1: bs from corporate media and right wing propaganda media that
Speaker 1: these Trump crowd sizes are so large, or there's some
Speaker 1: inevitability of idiocracy taking over our democracy. It is important
Speaker 1: to realize that the real silent majority in the United
Speaker 1: States of America are freedom loving, pro democracy people and
Speaker 1: not people like this, Michael Cohen. Because you talk about
Speaker 1: the Trump supporters, here's how they show up to his
Speaker 1: events right now, like this with shirts that say I'm
Speaker 1: voting for the convicted felon. Those are the shirts that
Speaker 1: they are wearing to these events or this This is real.
Speaker 1: By the way, Snopes fact check this as true. Real
Speaker 1: men wear diapers, diapers over dems. Where Trump's supporters show
Speaker 1: up to his rallies now wearing diapers to show support
Speaker 1: with him based on his behavior, or they show up
Speaker 1: with things like this, I don't even want to say,
Speaker 1: you're the cursor on the show. They dress up in
Speaker 1: shorts that say f me great again to these events.
Speaker 1: And then you have the lawyers. Here's let's show you
Speaker 1: the Let's show you the MAGA lawyers. Right here, this
Speaker 1: is Alina Haba who wears the fake gold chains of
Speaker 1: the cult leader with fake rings that say Maga. That
Speaker 1: is not normal discords. That side should not be normalized.
Speaker 1: And what corporate media does is they want to both
Speaker 1: sides and say, you know, on the one hand, you
Speaker 1: have pro democracy, patriotic Americans, and on the other hand,
Speaker 1: you've got this group they're MAGA. Here's here are the
Speaker 1: habits that they engage in. They cheer on convicted felons.
Speaker 1: Everything's rigged, everything's a hoax. It doesn't matter what the
Speaker 1: actual facts are. And that's BS And I just think
Speaker 1: what we have to do as a brigade community here
Speaker 1: is we have to be the change that we always wanted,
Speaker 1: and we have to do the work that frankly, the
Speaker 1: Fourth Estate has failed to do, and will get out
Speaker 1: the truth each and every day. So that's how I
Speaker 1: answer your question, Michael Cohen. But Cohen, as you see
Speaker 1: that type of crew that shows up at these events
Speaker 1: and behaves like that, though they are mirroring their cult leader,
Speaker 1: though these are the types of things that he says
Speaker 1: and does and the behavior that he countenances.
Speaker 2: This is though, exactly who Donald Trump says that they
Speaker 2: are the poorly educated. I like the poorly educated. That's
Speaker 2: what Donald says. Let me be very clear about something.
Speaker 2: I personally don't know anyone that would wear that diaper shirt.
Speaker 2: I don't know anyone that would say, you know, fuck
Speaker 2: fuck me great again, or this real man wear diapers.
Speaker 2: I don't know anybody that would actually wear that that
Speaker 2: has number one, any intelligence too, any respect for themselves
Speaker 2: forgetting about you know, respect for the process, respect for
Speaker 2: the office. I mean, we're talking about the highest office
Speaker 2: in the land. We're talking about the most powerful position
Speaker 2: in the world. And this is just another example of
Speaker 2: exactly why they are following Donald into this dumpster fire.
Speaker 2: Of a cult. It's it's truly, I guess, the only
Speaker 2: word that I could the only word I could use
Speaker 2: to describe them, and then just you know, is pathetic.
Speaker 2: That's really what they are. But here's the scariest part.
Speaker 2: It's a lot of fucking pathetic people out there, a lot.
Speaker 2: And that's the part that needs to make everybody concerned.
Speaker 2: It's the part where we turn them around. Ben and
Speaker 2: I and everybody that appears on the MS Touched network.
Speaker 2: Why we turn around and we say continuously, you best
Speaker 2: make sure that you are fully registered to vote. You
Speaker 2: make sure that you go on the website and you
Speaker 2: ensure that you are registered in that way. Come November
Speaker 2: and it's time for you to vote. There's no issues there.
Speaker 2: And don't just make sure that you yourself are registered
Speaker 2: to vote. Make sure that your other family members, assuming
Speaker 2: that they're not you know maga, you know magtards or
Speaker 2: you know maggots. I mean, it's I can't begin to
Speaker 2: tell you the number of emails and dms and even
Speaker 2: on our Patreon where they say, I don't know what
Speaker 2: to do. I have a certain relative who is you know,
Speaker 2: so knee deep into the cult of Trump that you know,
Speaker 2: I have no relationship with that person anymore. Well, this
Speaker 2: is this is really no joke. This this grievance that
Speaker 2: they are fostering, you know, in this country, and I
Speaker 2: see it on I see it on a daily basis,
Speaker 2: you know, when I go out for dinner or if
Speaker 2: I'm just taking a walk, and so you know, there
Speaker 2: are people that will come over and they'll say thank
Speaker 2: you for you know, trying to protect democracy. I'll get
Speaker 2: people asking me to you know, to shake my hand
Speaker 2: or to take a stealthy But then at the same time,
Speaker 2: I'll get people cursing me out, you know, saying some
Speaker 2: of the most vile things that you could you know
Speaker 2: that you can imagine, you know, I'm just walking mind
Speaker 2: in my own business, and they feel compelled, they actually
Speaker 2: feel entitled to my name call me out and then
Speaker 2: start their repertoire of maga mania. And it's for me,
Speaker 2: it's on a small basis, but this bullshit is happening everywhere,
Speaker 2: and the redder of the state that you go to,
Speaker 2: the redder of the state you go to, the worst
Speaker 2: it is, you know.
Speaker 1: And here's how I think about it, though, whether it's
Speaker 1: a family member, a friend, or colleague who's fallen into
Speaker 1: the cult though, And here's how I try to reflect
Speaker 1: on it, that there are entities, whether it's Fox whose
Speaker 1: revenue is like fifteen billion dollars or Sinclair, which has
Speaker 1: revenue in that range, that controls all the local TV,
Speaker 1: all the right wing ecosystem, that is so heavily funded
Speaker 1: by kind of these right wing extremists to have this
Speaker 1: authoritarian vision for the United States, this oligarchical vision. Literally
Speaker 1: hundreds of billions of dollars are being spent to influence
Speaker 1: your friend or former friend or family member who was
Speaker 1: searching for news, who was looking for answers to a
Speaker 1: complex reality that is our existence that we're all trying
Speaker 1: to find answers to make sense of this right. Life
Speaker 1: isn't always that easy, and no matter who we are,
Speaker 1: sacrifices have to be made. Things come up in our families,
Speaker 1: things come up with our health, things come up at
Speaker 1: the job. Things we can't control have impact on our lives.
Speaker 1: So we're all on this journey for truth, and these
Speaker 1: billion dollar right wing funded things. When people I think
Speaker 1: are looking for the truth intercept it and then they say,
Speaker 1: here is an easy answer to your problems. It's rigged.
Speaker 1: The whole system is a hoax. They're all lined up
Speaker 1: against you. They are rigging the system. Your problems are
Speaker 1: because they've rigged the system. A deep state cabal has
Speaker 1: joined forces to harm you, versus having the conversation. That
Speaker 1: requires layers of complexity to understand. How the world has flattened,
Speaker 1: How there are complexities and international relations, how our system
Speaker 1: of government works right, how there are checks and balances,
Speaker 1: the difference between Congress versus the judiciary versus the executive branch.
Speaker 1: How a bill has to become a law. Where do
Speaker 1: these infrastructure projects come from? How what ability does President
Speaker 1: Biden have to influence certain policies. With the layers of complexity,
Speaker 1: it becomes easier for con men, conwomen, con people to
Speaker 1: show up and manipulate the complexities and come to people
Speaker 1: with very simple answers, which sometimes boils down to I
Speaker 1: alone can fix it. And then the same way Donald
Speaker 1: Trump dresses up his Magdonian members of Congress to show
Speaker 1: up a certain way. You have Fox and these right
Speaker 1: wing networks put really attractive people with the chirns and
Speaker 1: the setup, and it looks so beautiful, and these people
Speaker 1: it looks like a News network and that they're you know,
Speaker 1: saying it and they look like newsmen and news people
Speaker 1: and newswomen from the past who people used to trust.
Speaker 1: But every day they're delivering falsehoods. And so I give
Speaker 1: you that rant, and I'll toss it over to you.
Speaker 1: I give give you that rant to say, that's who's
Speaker 1: influencing these people. So what's the antidote to death? How
Speaker 1: do you fix that? You have to build the infrastructure
Speaker 1: to fix that, and that's what you're trying to do,
Speaker 1: and we're trying.
Speaker 2: To Yeah, that's exactly I was going to say that,
Speaker 2: that's exactly what you know. Between Midas Network and you know,
Speaker 2: some of the other folks that are using the Midas
Speaker 2: Touch Network, like myself through Mayakulpo or a Legal af
Speaker 2: or some of the other various podcasts. The goal is
Speaker 2: just to try to keep keep telling the truth, keep
Speaker 2: hammering the truth over and over, and you know, the
Speaker 2: saddest part is that the truth gets drowned out by
Speaker 2: the lie. And Ben, just to talk about for a
Speaker 2: quick secon when you said, you know that you get
Speaker 2: these individuals like a Donald you know, and so on,
Speaker 2: and it's very reminiscent of the nineteen thirties, you know,
Speaker 2: with the third rite. I mean, let's not forget, you know.
Speaker 2: Hitler started on a on a little box, standing in
Speaker 2: the middle of the street, spewing hatred and racism and divisiveness,
Speaker 2: and it caught on and then there were ten people
Speaker 2: listening to this stupidity and horseshit, and then ten became
Speaker 2: one hundred, and one hundred became one thousand, and one
Speaker 2: thousand became ten thousand, until ultimately he had through hate,
Speaker 2: through grievance, he had acquired a massive force that just
Speaker 2: moved from one area, from one country to another, decimating, killing,
Speaker 2: airing grief, and so on and so forth. And the
Speaker 2: grievance wasn't just against the Jews, of course, that was
Speaker 2: the initial target, but it was anybody who was homosexual.
Speaker 2: It was anybody who had some sort of a physical
Speaker 2: incapacity or a mental incapacity. It was Christians that didn't
Speaker 2: believe that it was right, or Muslims that didn't believe
Speaker 2: that it was right within which to kill another human
Speaker 2: being because of their religious ideology. I mean, millions and
Speaker 2: millions and millions of non Jews were killed as well.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is what we are seeing going on
Speaker 2: right here. It is so said to think that this
Speaker 2: is twenty twenty four the United States of America. It's so,
Speaker 2: it's not even said. It's worse than that. It is.
Speaker 2: It's catastrophic. You know, people, People have to remember that
Speaker 2: the United States is the epitome of democracy in the world.
Speaker 2: I mean, what happens if God forbid, Trump wins the
Speaker 2: first thing he's going to do. Well, I shouldn't say
Speaker 2: the first, because there's many firsts that he claims he's
Speaker 2: going to do, but certainly one of them is to
Speaker 2: withdraw from NATO. Well, where does that leave the other
Speaker 2: democratic countries who are our allies? There are allies, for
Speaker 2: God's sakes. Now, all of a sudden he's going to
Speaker 2: dismantle it. And he's going to dismantle it based upon
Speaker 2: what based upon the fact that they're not paying their
Speaker 2: fair share. Well, in fact, it may not be an
Speaker 2: equivalent number, but then again, we have what a twenty
Speaker 2: seven twenty eight trillion dollar economy, and they have a
Speaker 2: nine hundred billion dollar economy, and that they're paying an
Speaker 2: amount which actually percentage wise to their GDP is greater
Speaker 2: than ours. But according to Trump, because we pay X
Speaker 2: and they pay Y that this isn't really working for us.
Speaker 2: Why because democracy around the world doesn't mean anything. You know,
Speaker 2: when you know, when we're going to realize here I go,
Speaker 2: this is where, this is where I'm gonna get angry. Ben,
Speaker 2: you know, when you're gonna realize. And I'm talking to
Speaker 2: the universe out there, not even to our brigaders, we
Speaker 2: will all know just how important democracy is and how
Speaker 2: bad it's gonna be under a scenario by Trump by
Speaker 2: pulling out of NATO, when our children have to enlist
Speaker 2: and they have to go fight for democracy around the world,
Speaker 2: they have to fight around the world, not even for
Speaker 2: other countries, but rather for America alone, for God forbid
Speaker 2: a million times Donald's president, for King Donald. The same
Speaker 2: way like if you're watching Vikings, you watch any of
Speaker 2: those type of shows, right, all for the king, Right,
Speaker 2: lay your life down for the benefit of the king,
Speaker 2: so that this fat pig can sit there and stuff
Speaker 2: his face with fucking mar A Lago burgers. And I screamed,
Speaker 2: fuck that bullshit. That I would ever let my kid
Speaker 2: go fight a war for him in order for him
Speaker 2: to remain king. Not a chance, you know.
Speaker 1: And I feel we have such an opportunity right now
Speaker 1: that frankly, the German people didn't have during the rise
Speaker 1: of Hitler, because while technology has aided and embedded authoritarianism,
Speaker 1: it's also a tool that we can have right now
Speaker 1: that didn't exist to get out the truth. And every
Speaker 1: single day when I wake up in the morning, when
Speaker 1: you wake up, when we continue to build this network
Speaker 1: brick by brick, with this incredible community of beat Down
Speaker 1: Brigaders out there, we know that every single day is
Speaker 1: a blessing. And I've seen some comments in the chat
Speaker 1: of people saying I need to take a break from
Speaker 1: politics now. I just want you to know that we're
Speaker 1: in this together, and you may not hear that out
Speaker 1: there watching other networks. I want you to know we
Speaker 1: are in this together. And I also want you to
Speaker 1: know how confident I am that democracy and truth will
Speaker 1: prevail so long as we stay together and keep on
Speaker 1: getting the truth out every day, and that we don't
Speaker 1: break in our resolve. They're trying to break us, the
Speaker 1: corporate media, right wing propaganda media, the local right wing
Speaker 1: controlled media trying to break us. I mean the way
Speaker 1: they cover what Trump did in Vegas versus what he
Speaker 1: actually did in Vegas and tried to act like that
Speaker 1: stand up comic routine is somehow funny, and that's how
Speaker 1: the corporate media reported it the headlines from USA today.
Speaker 1: That's not okay, But don't let that get you down.
Speaker 1: We are in this together. I want you to know that,
Speaker 1: and I think it's so important when we get back,
Speaker 1: I want to talk about my view and I want
Speaker 1: to get your view. Coden that there is zero chance
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump is going to show up for the
Speaker 1: debate on June twenty seventh.
Speaker 2: Later this month.

Speaker 2: that their breath probably stinks like shit. They're gonna blow
Speaker 2: into it and it's gonna be like, please, never do
Speaker 2: that again. It's a good say.
Speaker 1: It's a philosophical question that one I.
Speaker 2: Thought that I've been thinking. I'm thinking a lot. A
Speaker 2: lot of good people asked me if it was. They
Speaker 2: said it was a good question. It was good. It
Speaker 2: was a very good nobody's ever asked that question before. Well.
Speaker 1: Here he was, I'll let you show the contrast. Let
Speaker 1: me show you Donald Trump in Vegas, and then I
Speaker 1: want to compare that to President Biden today in Washington, DC.
Speaker 1: So first I'll show you Trump, and then I'm gonna
Speaker 1: show you Biden. Here's Trump talking about some relationship with
Speaker 1: Mi T and that he'd rather be electrocuter than eaten
Speaker 1: by a shark. Here, this is what he's saying as
Speaker 1: part of his campaign. Let's play.
Speaker 4: So I said, let me ask you a question, and
Speaker 4: he said, nobody ever asked this question. And it must
Speaker 4: because of Mit. My relationship to Mit. Very smart, he goes,
Speaker 4: I say, what would happen if the boat sank from
Speaker 4: his weight and you're in the boat and you have
Speaker 4: this tremendously powerful battery, and the battery is now underwater,
Speaker 4: and there's a shark that's approximately ten yards over there.
Speaker 2: By the way. A lot of shark attacks lately.
Speaker 4: Do you not under said a lot of shark I
Speaker 4: watched some guys justifying it today. Well, they weren't really
Speaker 4: that angry. They bit off the young lady's leg because
Speaker 4: of the fact that they were They were not hungry,
Speaker 4: but they misunderstood who she was. These people are great,
Speaker 4: he said, there's no problem with sharks. They just didn't
Speaker 4: really understand a young woman swimming. Now, it really got
Speaker 4: decimated in other people to a lot of shark attects.
Speaker 2: So I said, so there's a.
Speaker 4: Shark ten yards away from the boat ten yards or here?
Speaker 4: Do I get a extrocuted if the boat is sinking,
Speaker 4: water goes over the battery the boat is sinking, Do
Speaker 4: I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted?
Speaker 4: Or do I jump over by the shark and not
Speaker 4: get electrocuted? Because I will tell you he didn't know
Speaker 4: the entry. He said, you know, nobody's ever asked me
Speaker 4: that question. I said, I think it's a good question.
Speaker 4: I think there's a lot of electric current coming through
Speaker 4: that water. But you know what i'd do if there
Speaker 4: was a shark or you get electrocuted. I'll take electrocution
Speaker 4: every single time. I'm not getting there the shark, so
Speaker 4: we get it.
Speaker 2: I'm shocked he didn't say that he would take off
Speaker 2: his diaper and throw it at the shark. Yeah. That,
Speaker 2: you know, that's really thinking the right way. Nobody's asked
Speaker 2: in that.
Speaker 1: Let me compare this to what president?
Speaker 2: What a fucking idiot? I mean, is there any other
Speaker 2: way to describe it? If that not the stupidest rant
Speaker 2: that you've ever heard. Even the folks that are there,
Speaker 2: camera left and camera right are shaking their heads. I'm
Speaker 2: talking about these Maga Moore with their mustaches, their beards,
Speaker 2: their goate's, the whole nine. They all look exactly the same.
Speaker 2: It's like it was the fucking Deliverance. I mean, you know,
Speaker 2: they're all sitting there shaking their head. They're like, the
Speaker 2: hell is this guy talking about? I mean, shouldn't you
Speaker 2: be talking about the economy, border control. Didn't be talking
Speaker 2: about climate change maybe, you know, drilling, you know in Nevada.
Speaker 2: We should be talking about things like wages for servers
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. You know, there's a big union
Speaker 2: issue that just came down there. They're not endorsing Trump,
Speaker 2: They're endorsing Biden. Shouldn't you be talking about things that
Speaker 2: apply to all of us, not whether or not you're
Speaker 2: gonna get eaten by a shark or electrocuted by a
Speaker 2: non existent boat that operates off of batteries because there's
Speaker 2: an electrical current. I mean, yeah, he's an idiot. And
Speaker 2: by the way, just so people know, it was his
Speaker 2: uncle John, somewhere in like nineteen seventy was a professor.
Speaker 2: I don't remember what, and I don't know that this
Speaker 2: to be true. I really have to I really have
Speaker 2: to do a little more research on it. I think
Speaker 2: Mary Trump said that it was true, but uncle John
Speaker 2: actually was a professor at MIT. How does that then,
Speaker 2: if you just would humor me for a second, can
Speaker 2: somebody please tell me how that has any bearing upon
Speaker 2: Donald Trump's intelligence or lack of intelligence, that he had
Speaker 2: an uncle that went to MIT.
Speaker 1: Trump has a it's been documented Trump has this racehorse
Speaker 1: theory tied to eugenics a lot like Kitler did. So
Speaker 1: Trump's view is that why he's saying that, is he
Speaker 1: says that that's why he's got good genes and why
Speaker 1: he's smart, because that's what he's that's why he's.
Speaker 2: And I have a question. Then, under that same theory,
Speaker 2: he had a brother who died of alcoholism. His mom
Speaker 2: was a known drinker. Does that mean that he's an alcoholic?
Speaker 1: And that's why the underlying theory is not sound, and
Speaker 1: it's racist, and it's ridiculous and it's been debunked. But
Speaker 1: that's how he cherry picks his eugenic view of that.
Speaker 1: And that's why he emphasizes that because he knows clearly
Speaker 1: that he has major cognitive issues. So in that same
Speaker 1: speech he talks about the dementia tests that he aced
Speaker 1: and he says he hasted multiple times. He needs to
Speaker 1: tell the audience he's smart, knowing that he's not. So
Speaker 1: the way he does that is say, well, my uncle
Speaker 1: was at MIT and he can't even articulate that in
Speaker 1: the sentence his uncle stopped. His uncle passed away in
Speaker 1: nineteen eight and was a professor until nineteen seventy five
Speaker 1: at MIT, so Trump is saying that the basis of
Speaker 1: his theory about being eaten by not wanting to be
Speaker 1: eaten by a shark, and how he's come up with
Speaker 1: this idea is because of his uncle in MIT in
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy five. I mean, here's the thing. It's the
Speaker 1: ranting and ravings of a lunatic. And if it wasn't
Speaker 1: someone who was trying to cause such grievous harm to
Speaker 1: our families and friends and community and country and the world,
Speaker 1: you would normally see somebody up there and you'd try
Speaker 1: to get a person like that help like that. It's
Speaker 1: it's clearly a very there's very serious issues going on there,
Speaker 1: and instead of addressing those issues, the corporate media focused
Speaker 1: President Biden's age. And although President Biden is certainly older
Speaker 1: than he was he's eighty one because President Biden walks slower.
Speaker 1: But President Biden has all of his faculties there together.
Speaker 1: And we know this because we see his speech and
Speaker 1: we see his speeches. And don't get me wrong, there
Speaker 1: are moments in a President Biden's speech where he stutters.
Speaker 1: There are moments in a President Biden's speech where he
Speaker 1: may look confused for a moment or two in a
Speaker 1: very long speech, that's not the defining quality of the
Speaker 1: speech or characteristic. The defining quality and characteristic. By the way,
Speaker 1: if I gave a speech for an hour, there would
Speaker 1: be moments where I mumble and I get confused, because
Speaker 1: speaking for that long is not an easy task at all.
Speaker 1: But the defining characteristic of a Trump speech is the
Speaker 1: ranting and raving of a lunatic and telling stories about
Speaker 1: electrocution versus shark eating, and praising January sixth insurrectionists and
Speaker 1: making noises like ah. And that's the defining characteristic. So
Speaker 1: what the media, corporate media will do is they'll look
Speaker 1: at the Biden speech and they'll extract the kind of
Speaker 1: one percent moment or say even five percent moment where
Speaker 1: Biden is slower or isn't giving the best portion of
Speaker 1: a speech. They take that moment, but not the fact
Speaker 1: that the speech overall is a very is a very
Speaker 1: good commanding speech. Then for Donald Trump, they recharacterize the
Speaker 1: speech through a lens of normalcy and they give it
Speaker 1: a meaning that Donald Trump didn't even do. So then
Speaker 1: you get the headlines like Donald Trump goes off script
Speaker 1: and connects powerfully with the large crowd, and it's like,
Speaker 1: that's just not that's not what happened. What are you
Speaker 1: even talking about? So compare what I just showed you
Speaker 1: with Trump. Here's President Biden from earlier today. Let's play
Speaker 1: this clip. After our school shooting in Iowa that killed
Speaker 1: a student and a teacher, my predecessor was asked about it.
Speaker 2: You remember what he said. He says, have to get
Speaker 2: over it. Hell no, we don't have to get over it.
Speaker 2: We gotta stop it. We gotta stop it and stop
Speaker 2: it now. Yeah. I mean, look, there's no there's no
Speaker 2: comparison between the two. You know, Joe Biden because of
Speaker 2: his because of his humanity, because of his decency, there's
Speaker 2: always something for him to talk about. You you know,
Speaker 2: I could right now talk for a half an hour
Speaker 2: easily about gun violence, about everybody knowing somebody who has
Speaker 2: been harmed in one way or another as a direct
Speaker 2: result of lacks gun laws. We could talk about the
Speaker 2: need for enhanced.
Speaker 5: Application process so that everybody who has a firearm is
Speaker 5: actually the right person to have a firearm, and not
Speaker 5: just simply because you turn eighteen that you should be
Speaker 5: able to buy a firearm when you can't even go
Speaker 5: into the local store and buy a beer.
Speaker 2: I mean, that to me is just idiotic. I don't
Speaker 2: know a nicer way to say it, that somebody can
Speaker 2: go in and buy a firearm but you can't buy
Speaker 2: a beer. I mean it's to me, it's just it's
Speaker 2: fucked up. It's insane. It's insane, almost as crazy and
Speaker 2: Ben nobody does it like Midas touched Network when you
Speaker 2: keep showing these clips of Trump walking out of places,
Speaker 2: waving to crowds that don't exist. I mean, if this
Speaker 2: in and of itself is not reason for this guy
Speaker 2: not to be running. And by the way, I'm going
Speaker 2: to say something which is not probably beneficial to Democrats,
Speaker 2: which as any of you who've been part of the
Speaker 2: political Beatdown Brigade and you've listened to my podcast Maya
Speaker 2: Kulpa in the past, you'll know I've been a Democrat
Speaker 2: based my entire life. I worked in eighty seven and
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty eight for Congressman Joe Moakley out of Massachusetts
Speaker 2: in Washington when I was attending college my junior and
Speaker 2: senior year. Anybody who's walking around and waving to a
Speaker 2: crowd that doesn't exist should not be running. They should
Speaker 2: go ahead and they should actually bring in somebody else.
Speaker 2: And you know what, by bringing somebody else in, there's
Speaker 2: probably a better than likely chance that the race benefit Republicans.
Speaker 2: I mean, I really believe that, you know that Biden
Speaker 2: is certainly beatable by somebody who is young, somebody who
Speaker 2: is you know, more energetic and gives people the feeling
Speaker 2: that you know that they're not going to be a
Speaker 2: Donald Trump two point oh. So I'm not talking about like,
Speaker 2: you know, Marco Rubio or you know, any of any
Speaker 2: Josh Howley's or anybody like that. I'm talking about a
Speaker 2: moderate Republican I think would really make this race very
Speaker 2: difficult for Biden. I don't believe that there's anything that
Speaker 2: can possibly be done that Trump ultimately becomes president. I
Speaker 2: don't think it's possible. I really don't. And I think
Speaker 2: that the Democrats have to get much smarter in the
Speaker 2: way that they are messaging. Just how that shit crazy.
Speaker 2: I mean, if I was there right now and I
Speaker 2: turn around and all of a sudden, I just start,
Speaker 2: you know, I just start waving, you know, to each
Speaker 2: and every one of you, and thank you, thank you,
Speaker 2: thank you, thank you, and I show you the other
Speaker 2: side of the room here and I'm sitting by myself.
Speaker 2: You would say, what the fuck I mean? This guy
Speaker 2: has lost it. The problem with when you have somebody
Speaker 2: like Trump who has lost it and he babbles this
Speaker 2: crazy nonsense, you get folks like Rudy Giuliani. You get
Speaker 2: folks like Maga, Mike Johnson, the number two guy. Think
Speaker 2: about it, my friends, the number two guy in all
Speaker 2: in our government is talking crazy because he needs to
Speaker 2: do so to appease Donald Trump. That you have an
Speaker 2: entire group of this chaos caucus that prevented border security
Speaker 2: border legislation from being enacted. Why because Donald didn't want
Speaker 2: Biden to get a win. It's not a Biden win.
Speaker 2: It is an America win. It is our win. And
Speaker 2: that's why they are there in Washington wearing those necklaces
Speaker 2: and those pins that show that they're members of Congress.
Speaker 2: Who are they working for? What kind of stupidity is this?
Speaker 2: And I'm just I'm so lost already. The more I
Speaker 2: listen to folks like Alito, the more that I listened
Speaker 2: to folks like like Clarence Thomas with Genie Thomas and
Speaker 2: the more that I start listening to the way that
Speaker 2: these folks are behaving, and we're talking about the Supreme
Speaker 2: freaking Court, who growing up or who even prior to
Speaker 2: all of this nonsense, didn't have the utmost of respect
Speaker 2: for our members of the Supreme Court, And for whatever reason,
Speaker 2: you know, our founding fathers decided that these folks have
Speaker 2: to have their jobs for life and they can never
Speaker 2: be you know, they never be removed or almost impossible
Speaker 2: to remove them. I mean, this whole thing is absolutely crazy.
Speaker 2: Flying the American flag upside down and blaming it on
Speaker 2: your wife, not not turning around and acknowledging that there
Speaker 2: is a major billionaire and this is a big fucking
Speaker 2: problem that you have this billionaire class that's out there
Speaker 2: right now supporting Trump. Like, what's her name, uh, doctor Adelson? Right, well,
Speaker 2: what's her first name? Miriam? Miriam Adelson, the wife of
Speaker 2: Sheldon Adelson, or ihed just say, the widow of Sheldon Adelson,
Speaker 2: who's now the third richest woman in the world, who's
Speaker 2: going to give Donald one hundred million dollars. Really you
Speaker 2: think that that's not coming with strings? And we know
Speaker 2: what the strings are, the same strings that her husband wanted.
Speaker 2: He Sheldon Nagelson was the one that was responsible for
Speaker 2: the moving of the of the embassy from Tel Aviv
Speaker 2: to Jerusalem. This is all about their ability to use
Speaker 2: Donald Trump because he is a useful idiot to them
Speaker 2: through money in order to get what they want. That's
Speaker 2: not the way it's supposed to be. You're not supposed
Speaker 2: to be able to buy the president of the United States.
Speaker 1: Did you hear that audio recording that Laura and Windsor
Speaker 1: got of once she got it of Justice Alito, where
Speaker 1: he said a bunch of unhinged things, But then she
Speaker 1: also got the audio of his wife, Martha and Alito.
Speaker 1: And I really don't want to play the whole thing
Speaker 1: because I want to leave the episode on a positive note.
Speaker 1: But so Martha an Alito when she would like reach
Speaker 1: out to people, and there are people in the room
Speaker 1: and she wanted to get their attention. The way she
Speaker 1: would do it is by meowing at them. And so
Speaker 1: rather than say, hey, come over here, come over here,
Speaker 1: she would go yea yam, yam, yam, yam, yam yoo.
Speaker 1: I can't make this stuff.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: The whole thing is so is so strange. Code here
Speaker 1: listen to this. I'm only going to play a few
Speaker 1: seconds of it because I can't deal with this audio.
Speaker 1: Play it now now, now, now, now, now.
Speaker 2: One more time, one more time, one more time, now now, now,
Speaker 2: now now now. Can't make this stuff up.
Speaker 1: Let me share this with you, though, because I do
Speaker 1: want a positive note even though these are you know,
Speaker 1: I think, very difficult times for the Biden family. Of course,
Speaker 1: you know, Hunter was just convicted. You you owned here
Speaker 1: though President Biden saying it's rigged. You don't hear anyone
Speaker 1: in the pro democracy community saying the judge, you know,
Speaker 1: the judge had it in. The jury was unfair, you know,
Speaker 1: but you have still, even with the conviction, all of
Speaker 1: the MAGA Republicans coming up with new conspiracy theories right now.
Speaker 1: For example, Trump's aid Stephen Miller saying, the DOJ is
Speaker 1: running an election interference for Joe Biden. That is why
Speaker 1: the DOJ did not charge Hunter with being an unregistered
Speaker 1: foreign agent farah and any crime connected with foreign corruption.
Speaker 1: Why because all of the evidence would lead back to Joe.
Speaker 1: DOJ is Joe's election protection racket. In other words, the prosecutors.
Speaker 1: This is what mag is saying right now, the prosecutors
Speaker 1: were trying to do a cover up. They're part of
Speaker 1: a cabal where President Biden wanted them to prosecute and
Speaker 1: get his son convicted of a felony. That's what they're
Speaker 1: pushing right now after they got what they have been
Speaker 1: pushing for. Let me show you Trump's statement that he
Speaker 1: put out as well, which is also spreading conspiracies and lies.
Speaker 1: Here it is right here, Trump goes the trial has
Speaker 1: been nothing more than a distraction from the real crimes
Speaker 1: of the Biden crime family, which has raked in tens
Speaker 1: of millions of dollars from tryinga blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: More lies there. But compare it to the statement from
Speaker 1: the resident.
Speaker 2: Understand that that's coming from Don Trump Junior.
Speaker 1: Well, now he's posting the campaign.
Speaker 2: He's posting the campaign. I also want to be you know,
Speaker 2: you know, there's the old expression, he who lives in
Speaker 2: glasshouses shouldn't throw rocks, shouldn't throw stones. They better be
Speaker 2: they better be awfully careful themselves. You know, these fuckers
Speaker 2: running around the world turning around and trying to what
Speaker 2: were they There was a couple of like real estate
Speaker 2: projects that you know, in whether it's Dubai, the Amiades
Speaker 2: they were talking about, you know, maybe doing one in Riad.
Speaker 2: You know of course with NBS. I mean they have
Speaker 2: ones that were all of Romania. Let me tell you something.
Speaker 2: You know, you got Jared Kushner who pulled down over
Speaker 2: two and a half billion from the Middle East. You
Speaker 2: have Ivanka who ended up, you know, getting a whole
Speaker 2: bunch of benefits from China with patents in and and copyrights.
Speaker 2: You have you know, the boys on behalf of you know,
Speaker 2: the Trump organization doing these these real estate deals you know,
Speaker 2: all over the place. You know, they really need to
Speaker 2: be very careful how they open up their mouths, because
Speaker 2: there is nobody it's not the Biden crime family. I
Speaker 2: don't even have to turn around and refer to the
Speaker 2: Trump crime family. We all know exactly who and what
Speaker 2: they are. And as the director they they meaning the
Speaker 2: entire Trump crime family. Today they are cumulatively recipient of
Speaker 2: the two fingers salute. All right to you guys, All right,
Speaker 2: this poor guy, Hunter Biden. If your heart doesn't go
Speaker 2: out to him, then you clearly have never known or
Speaker 2: met or had to deal with somebody who has a
Speaker 2: massive addiction and You've heard me say this a couple
Speaker 2: of times on this program and others. I've lost my
Speaker 2: two oldest and closest friends in my entire life to
Speaker 2: drug addiction. I watched as they spiraled, one of whom
Speaker 2: when we were in college we had a business together.
Speaker 2: Took all the profit from the business and we did
Speaker 2: really well. I mean, made a lot a lot of
Speaker 2: money in college. I took all the money that we
Speaker 2: made as profit because his parents refused to do it,
Speaker 2: and I put him into rehab because his parents said,
Speaker 2: we've already done that several times and it hasn't worked.
Speaker 2: And he's just he's just incorrigible, and there's nothing that
Speaker 2: anything that you or anybody else are going to do,
Speaker 2: just a matter of time before he ends up losing
Speaker 2: his life. I mean, I remember that like it was yesterday.
Speaker 2: I didn't care. Took our profits and we went ahead
Speaker 2: and put him. I put him in rehab. And you
Speaker 2: know what, God bless Hunter Biden. God bless his family
Speaker 2: for staying as close to him as they have, because
Speaker 2: without the support, he never would have been able to
Speaker 2: make it to where he's at today. And instead of
Speaker 2: commending him and understanding that drug addiction is real. They're
Speaker 2: going to exploit that fact. And he broke the law.
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, he broke it. But really, anybody
Speaker 2: get hurt here? Right, there's a there's a false application. Okay,
Speaker 2: take away the take away, the application? Take away the
Speaker 2: gun is it? Is it any if you if you
Speaker 2: drive a car too fast and you have too many points,
Speaker 2: they take your license? Okay? You really think that this
Speaker 2: was necessary? Anybody get hurt here? Did he brandish a
Speaker 2: gun on anybody? It's a drug addict who is working
Speaker 2: his ass off every single day, every single day, waking
Speaker 2: up and knowing that he has to be the best
Speaker 2: Hunter Biden that he could possibly be, right, and he's
Speaker 2: doing it. He's doing it for his father, He's doing
Speaker 2: it for doctor Joe Biden. He's doing it for his children,
Speaker 2: he's doing it for He's doing it for his family,
Speaker 2: for all of them, and his friends. Shame shame on
Speaker 2: them a million times over. But putting this guy through,
Speaker 2: you know, the only person that he actually hurt in
Speaker 2: this entire ordeal is himself, right and Cohen.
Speaker 1: When it was alleged that Hunter Biden engaged in the crimes,
Speaker 1: Joe Biden was not President Biden, nor was he even
Speaker 1: Vice President Biden at the time. Hunter Biden had just
Speaker 1: lost his brother. It was at a time actually, too,
Speaker 1: and people don't talk about this where President Biden did
Speaker 1: not even think he was ever going to run again
Speaker 1: for office. Although as Donald Trump started damaging the country,
Speaker 1: that's when President Biden said, you know, I have a
Speaker 1: change of heart. I think I need to run again.
Speaker 1: So this happened at a period also, and this again
Speaker 1: doesn't get the discussion where there weren't the trappings of
Speaker 1: either the vice presidency or the presidency the exact way
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump's kids, that Ivanka, that Jared, that others
Speaker 1: actually utilize the office itself for all of these issues.
Speaker 1: Let me just read to you the statement that President
Speaker 1: Biden issued so you can see the contrast, because I
Speaker 1: think it's important.
Speaker 2: Talk about that.
Speaker 1: President Biden writes, as I said last week, I am
Speaker 1: the president, but I am also a dad. Jill and
Speaker 1: I love our son, and we are so proud of
Speaker 1: the man he is today. So many families who have
Speaker 1: had loved ones battle addiction understand the feeling of pride
Speaker 1: seeing someone you love come out the other side and
Speaker 1: be so strong and resilient in recovery. And I also
Speaker 1: said last week I will accept the outcome of this
Speaker 1: case and will continue to respect the judicial process as
Speaker 1: Hunter considers an appeal. Jill and I will always be
Speaker 1: there for Hunter and the rest of our family with
Speaker 1: our love and support. Nothing will ever change. And to me,
Speaker 1: that statement says it all a class act right there,
Speaker 1: and I wanted to leave on this note. I am
Speaker 1: very very excited though, to meet with all the Brigaders
Speaker 1: tomorrow at four thirty eastern one thirty Pacific. There will
Speaker 1: be a secret Zoom link that we're going to post
