1
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: Welcome to Political Beatdown. I'm Ben Mycelish, joined by Michael Cohen.

2
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,720
It's June twenty seventh, twenty twenty four. It's debate Night.

3
00:00:11,839 --> 00:00:16,879
The first presidential debate of this election season between President

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:20,960
Biden and convicted felon Donald Trump, will be taking place

5
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,600
in just a few hours now. There are lots of

6
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,879
people who are trying to act like this is just

7
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,320
a normal presidential debate, and they try to compare it

8
00:00:31,399 --> 00:00:35,719
to debates in the past where there was significant impact

9
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:41,119
Nixon versus JFK or when people thought that Al Gore

10
00:00:41,439 --> 00:00:45,159
was going to easily defeat George W. Bush in their

11
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:50,560
first debate. This is nothing like that or anything close

12
00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:55,399
to that in terms of the importance and in terms

13
00:00:55,439 --> 00:00:59,240
of the difference between candidates. On the one hand, in

14
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:08,439
president by someone who supports democracy, supports American institutions, supports

15
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:13,400
the America and the Constitution that I think that we

16
00:01:13,519 --> 00:01:19,040
all thought existed except for this Maga movement, this Maga mutation.

17
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,079
On the other hand, you have Donald Trump, who is

18
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:29,879
running as an anti democracy, pro authoritarianism candidate, and he

19
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:35,239
may try to pretend that that's not what or who

20
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,599
he is, but listen to his answers and pay attention. Look,

21
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:47,200
the American people deserve this debate. The American people deserve

22
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:53,319
to not hear how Fox tries to filter what Donald

23
00:01:53,359 --> 00:01:58,040
Trump says, or right wing media or his sycophants what

24
00:01:58,159 --> 00:02:00,879
they try to say from Americans does deserve to hear

25
00:02:01,519 --> 00:02:05,799
the distinction, and the only thing that I'm hoping for

26
00:02:05,959 --> 00:02:10,199
more than anything is just that it is the whole

27
00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:13,879
thing takes place, that the candidates are able to talk

28
00:02:14,039 --> 00:02:19,120
and express their views pursuant to the rules, and that

29
00:02:19,759 --> 00:02:23,319
the debate just happens. I think that the American people

30
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:28,080
deserve to see these two candidates more than anything, and

31
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,960
that's what's kind of most important to me. Michael Cohen,

32
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,080
what's your initial reflection as we head into this debate.

33
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 2: You know, I sit and I listen to all of

34
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:43,319
these pundits, and truthfully, none of them know Donald Trump.

35
00:02:43,439 --> 00:02:47,159
They only know him, you know, from television, or they're

36
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,840
three minutes of communication with him by asking a question

37
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,039
and so on. I've tried to explain this to many

38
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:02,039
people that are around Biden in the preparation. President Biden

39
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,400
needs to come out swinging, and he needs to come

40
00:03:05,439 --> 00:03:08,840
out and swing hard. So, for example, we did this

41
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,479
the other day and we had a lot of fun

42
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,800
with it. Ben, you know, kind of like what should

43
00:03:14,879 --> 00:03:19,639
Biden's right out of the gate response to Trump b

44
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,120
and somewhere along the line, again, it's not just what

45
00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:28,039
you're saying, it's also the delivery. So Biden, no matter

46
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,960
what the question, you know, look, my opponent has no

47
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:40,280
sense of reality. The man brags brags about once passing

48
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:46,840
a basic cognition test over four years ago. My opponent

49
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:52,240
thinks that the ability to draw a clock, identify an elephant,

50
00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:56,759
or remember a five item list is such a feat,

51
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,000
it's such a feat of magnitude that he should be

52
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:05,039
the president of the United States based upon this cognition test.

53
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,919
That's what he needs to come out and say. Where

54
00:04:08,159 --> 00:04:12,879
you know, it's an elegant way of calling Donald an

55
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,079
asshole and an idiots. That's what Biden has to do

56
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,959
because right now, what Trump's people are telling him, you

57
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,319
need to go out there and you need to defy

58
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:30,160
all of these pundits saying that you're going to be bombastic,

59
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,199
that you're going to be impossible to control, and as

60
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,959
you already know, they're going to cut mics and you

61
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,959
have a certain period of time and so on. Donald,

62
00:04:40,319 --> 00:04:43,040
that's not the way that you're going to win this debate.

63
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,319
That's not the way that you're going to end up

64
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,160
winning the election. You need to show America that you

65
00:04:50,399 --> 00:04:54,360
are stronger than they think you are. Blah blah blah.

66
00:04:54,519 --> 00:04:58,639
Here's the truth. Donald can handle it, all right. He

67
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,560
can't handle anybody poking fun at him. He can't handle

68
00:05:02,879 --> 00:05:07,879
somebody questioning his intelligence or his capabilities. So when you

69
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,399
hit him with that cognition test, and I believe that

70
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,680
each and every one of our brigaders will say the

71
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,560
same thing. When he was out there and bragging about

72
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,639
how well he did man woman Jold camera TV, blah

73
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,439
blah blah, I was able to identify an elephant whoa

74
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,959
really ah nozzle to you. You know what, I'm voting

75
00:05:32,079 --> 00:05:35,759
for you, mister elephant. Identify your guy. That's what you

76
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,480
need to do. And it's again, it's not just what

77
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,839
you say, it's how Joe Biden says it. He has

78
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,519
to say it with a smile and with a laugh

79
00:05:44,639 --> 00:05:48,879
and sort of like you know, a political beatdown, two

80
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,920
finger salute. That's what he needs to do.

81
00:05:53,319 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: You know, this is what Donald Trump has been posting

82
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:03,680
things like this, Trumps for debate against Biden by going

83
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:09,920
to nursing home and arguing with dementia patients. That's one

84
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:15,800
of the things Trump's posted on his social media platform.

85
00:06:16,079 --> 00:06:19,199
It's interesting because in a way, what you're saying, Cohen two,

86
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,120
is that what Donald Trump's advisors are really telling him

87
00:06:23,319 --> 00:06:26,680
is for you to win, Donald Trump, you have to

88
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,120
act not like Donald Trump. You have to for this

89
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,519
ninety minutes, act like a different person and try to

90
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,560
trick the American people. On the other hand, the Biden

91
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:41,000
folks are telling Biden, you need to go out and

92
00:06:41,079 --> 00:06:44,519
be the best Biden you can be and be that

93
00:06:44,639 --> 00:06:48,000
Biden who gave the State of the Union, and so

94
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,879
to me that distinction, right. The Trump advisors don't act

95
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,639
like Trump. Act different when they ask you these questions.

96
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,439
Do not act like what it's your instinct to act,

97
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,560
Act like you care about the climate when you don't,

98
00:07:03,319 --> 00:07:07,000
act like you haven't said that the January sixth insurrectionists

99
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,879
are hostages. Act like you haven't said that you trust

100
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:17,240
Vladimir Putin over America's intelligence agencies. Act different, Act put

101
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:21,120
on an act Donald, pretend that this is reality TV.

102
00:07:21,839 --> 00:07:24,439
And go out there and act and behave like a

103
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:25,240
different person.

104
00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 2: Right.

105
00:07:25,519 --> 00:07:29,959
Speaker 1: That's his guidance that they're giving, where Biden is the opposite.

106
00:07:30,319 --> 00:07:32,519
I want to share this with you, Cohen. These are

107
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:39,160
the rules of the debate tonight. You have Victor Blackwell

108
00:07:39,199 --> 00:07:42,759
from CNN, say, explaining how each man's microphone will be

109
00:07:42,839 --> 00:07:46,480
muted when it's not their turn to speak. He and

110
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,439
film maddingly demonstrated what that looks like and sounds like

111
00:07:50,839 --> 00:07:53,560
I think we have a clip of what this is

112
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,800
going to look like where CNN lays it out with

113
00:07:55,839 --> 00:07:57,040
the format. Let's play it.

114
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 3: If we go behind the podiums, you can see two

115
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,720
green lights. When they're on, they signal to the candidate

116
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,439
his microphone is on. When the green lights are off,

117
00:08:06,519 --> 00:08:09,600
they signal to the candidate his microphone is off. Now,

118
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,000
I want to give you a sense of what it

119
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,120
will look like for viewers at home if a candidate

120
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,920
whose microphone is off interrupts a candidate whose microphone is on.

121
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,199
So I'm standing at one podium and I'll ask Phil

122
00:08:19,279 --> 00:08:21,240
to come in and take the other podium. And so

123
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,319
let's say I'm answering a question, my light is green,

124
00:08:24,439 --> 00:08:27,600
and I'm speaking. Phil's microphone is off and his green

125
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,759
lights are not illuminated. He's going to interrupt me as

126
00:08:30,759 --> 00:08:33,000
I'm speaking, and this is what it will sound like.

127
00:08:33,399 --> 00:08:37,120
My volume remains constant, while Phil's interruption can be difficult

128
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:37,799
to understand.

129
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,919
Speaker 4: Let's try the opposite. My microphone is now on. Victor's

130
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,679
microphone is off and he's going to interrupt me. My

131
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:50,360
volume remains constant, while Victor's interruption can be difficult to understand.

132
00:08:50,879 --> 00:08:53,879
We should note by agreeing to participate in this debate,

133
00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:57,440
both campaigns and candidates have also agreed to buy by

134
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,960
these rules. The CNEA and Presidential Debate there's live at

135
00:09:01,039 --> 00:09:02,279
nine pm Eastern.

136
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 2: Conte the stupidest, stupidest reenactment I've ever seen. Well, okay,

137
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,399
you know, and you know you can't do it, and

138
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,639
you know these are the rules and that everybody agreed

139
00:09:19,639 --> 00:09:22,840
to aby Donald Trump doesn't abide by rules. Rules don't

140
00:09:22,879 --> 00:09:26,120
apply to him. Not only do rules not apply to him,

141
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:29,240
neither do the laws. And do you really think they're

142
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:32,679
only something like six feet away from each other? Go ahead, Ben,

143
00:09:32,919 --> 00:09:35,440
try to say something and then he's just gonna start

144
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,200
shouting louder. So it's gonna get picked up by the

145
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,919
other guy's MC. Maybe it's not going to be as

146
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,080
clear as the other Listen, let me be very clear

147
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:48,519
about something. Donald knows what's coming at him tonight. All right.

148
00:09:49,039 --> 00:09:51,279
I get a lot of people calling me and saying, Michael,

149
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,639
do you think that he doesn't even show up? You

150
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,679
know now they're turning on there saying that he's willing

151
00:09:56,759 --> 00:10:00,360
to take a drug test right now, but uh, Joe

152
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:04,720
Biden is not, and you know this is unfair, and

153
00:10:04,799 --> 00:10:09,840
so on and so forth. It's so incredible. It's almost

154
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,559
as if they're looking to try to find the reason

155
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,759
why Donald should not take the stand today. One of

156
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:20,039
the funniest things is somebody had sent to me. It

157
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:25,120
was an entire list of various different questions that they

158
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,039
believe CNN or if they had people been like you

159
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,720
or me turning around and sending questions in the question

160
00:10:33,919 --> 00:10:37,200
that they would want to hear is something like, mister Trump,

161
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:44,039
numerous members of your company, your campaign, and your administration

162
00:10:44,639 --> 00:10:49,879
had been convicted of crimes, including yourself. How would you

163
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:54,240
respond to those who might say this is not a

164
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:59,919
witch hunt but a pattern, and mister Trump, you happened

165
00:10:59,919 --> 00:11:04,639
to be the common denominator. How would you respond to that.

166
00:11:04,639 --> 00:11:08,879
That's the kind of question that they need to bring out. Now,

167
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:13,600
let's say CNN chooses not to do that. What Joe

168
00:11:13,639 --> 00:11:17,200
Biden has to say is, and we know that he's

169
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,879
going to call him a felon, you have to turn

170
00:11:20,919 --> 00:11:24,639
around and you have to say in your answer somehow,

171
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:29,559
whatever the question might be, Donald, look at the number

172
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,399
of people here. Let me give you the example, Donald,

173
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:37,879
in your company, in your campaign, yourself included. Numerous members

174
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,919
of the administration have all been convicted, some are right

175
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:47,600
now in jail as we speak, including yourself. Right, you

176
00:11:47,639 --> 00:11:52,639
know how many people in my administration? You know how many? Zero?

177
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,240
You know how many from my campaign? Yep, you know

178
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:01,879
the answer. Zero. You know how many from mikey Zero?

179
00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:04,559
Because I don't have a company, right. You know, he's

180
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,360
got to bring a little humor, interject a little humor

181
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:11,600
into this as well. You think maybe the question about

182
00:12:11,639 --> 00:12:15,960
him being a common denominator should not come out by

183
00:12:16,039 --> 00:12:19,480
the Biden, by Joe Biden during this debate. It would

184
00:12:19,519 --> 00:12:21,159
be a massive, massive mistake.

185
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: Couldn't agree more with you, and just but just take

186
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,320
a look at some of the stuff that Trump's posting Coen,

187
00:12:27,399 --> 00:12:30,200
this is to your point, like you think Trump's gonna

188
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,039
follow the rules, Like as I started this episode, we

189
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:39,799
are in such unchartered territory in the history of our country,

190
00:12:39,919 --> 00:12:43,679
in the history of our democracy. I mean, he's out

191
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,120
there posting things like this that this is part of

192
00:12:47,159 --> 00:12:50,399
an actual video that he just posted moments ago.

193
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 2: Let me show it to you.

194
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,279
Speaker 5: By Denica, And I've never slept better.

195
00:12:54,519 --> 00:12:57,279
Speaker 6: Sometimes when I get hopped up on sugar, my parents

196
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,480
give me by Denica, so I pass out of times

197
00:13:00,519 --> 00:13:02,799
they give it to me during the day, probably so

198
00:13:02,919 --> 00:13:05,960
they can do the deed gross.

199
00:13:06,879 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I don't know whether the folks that

200
00:13:10,159 --> 00:13:14,200
are in the Trump campaign think that they're funny or

201
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:19,960
anything like that. It's not. It's not funny, it's not clever,

202
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:25,480
you know it would be. It's it's childish, it's churlish,

203
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:30,320
it's it's stupid. With all due respect, what the Biden

204
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,559
administration should do is they should be coming out with

205
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:38,000
more and more ads. You know of somebody with you know,

206
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,519
wearing a Trump mask so you only see it from behind,

207
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,559
you know, in an orange jumpsuit working on the Chang

208
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,679
Gang or breaking rocks. On the side of the road

209
00:13:49,039 --> 00:13:52,799
or something like that, and say, I want to be

210
00:13:52,919 --> 00:13:55,799
clear about something. One of the two people that are

211
00:13:55,879 --> 00:14:01,080
running for the presidency of the United States is a

212
00:14:01,159 --> 00:14:07,559
felon and the other is not. You choose, make it simple,

213
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,480
and there will be people that will say, I choose

214
00:14:10,519 --> 00:14:13,840
the felon. Okay, I mean that just really makes a

215
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,960
lot of sense. But sure you have people that are

216
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,440
so knee deep into this dumpster cult of Trump that

217
00:14:21,519 --> 00:14:23,600
they will turn around and walk around with a T

218
00:14:23,759 --> 00:14:29,720
shirt that says, I vote for the felon. All right, me, personally,

219
00:14:29,799 --> 00:14:32,480
I'd be wearing a T shirt that says, fuck the felon.

220
00:14:34,519 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: Here is what these magacryberries cry babies are doing right

221
00:14:39,639 --> 00:14:43,480
now here. You have Steven Miller posting, Remember if you

222
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:48,919
see Biden bizarrely shouting, not blinking and slurring while fast

223
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,919
talking tonight, it's because he's on drugs. As our editor

224
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,879
in chief Ron philip Kowski said, these whiny cry babies

225
00:14:56,879 --> 00:14:59,799
always seem to know so much about this topic when

226
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,639
rejecting accusations onto others. The Trump White House was a

227
00:15:04,759 --> 00:15:10,080
pill mill under Ronnie Jackson, actually was a pill mill.

228
00:15:10,159 --> 00:15:12,960
I mean the Department of your age Johnson.

229
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: You all know congressman from Texas, Ronnie Johnson, and he

230
00:15:17,279 --> 00:15:20,279
doesn't even know the guy's name, mister fucking genius.

231
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,759
Speaker 1: I mean the amount of fentanyl patches, Verse said, which

232
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:32,600
is the date rape drug, ketamine, provigil, adderall, a bunch

233
00:15:32,639 --> 00:15:38,080
of other hard drugs were dispensed so recklessly and carelessly

234
00:15:38,639 --> 00:15:41,559
during the Trump White House. We're always going to keep

235
00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:43,440
bringing it up here in the Minus Touch Network on

236
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,559
this show and our other shows. But you know, when

237
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,200
you hear Ronnie Jackson say so, here's what I think

238
00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:52,600
the cocktail is that they're preparing for Biden. He's like

239
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,279
listing the drugs that were on the list of drugs

240
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,360
in the White House when he was the doctor there,

241
00:16:00,519 --> 00:16:04,000
provigil this one and that one. Here's what Charlie Kirk,

242
00:16:04,039 --> 00:16:07,799
one of the main MAGA influencers, has to say. Here's

243
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,080
what he just posted. Everyone keeps saying there will be

244
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,960
no fans allowed in the audience in tonight's debate. That's

245
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,519
not true. Joe Biden will have two fans sitting up close,

246
00:16:18,679 --> 00:16:21,879
Dana Bash and Jake Tapper, and our editor in chief,

247
00:16:22,039 --> 00:16:26,480
Nis Clever. The whining and crime continues.

248
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 2: Oh, He's so clever. I mean, how great was that? Right?

249
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,679
How great was that? They're already they're already projecting the

250
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,399
fact that they know that Trump is a complete and

251
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:44,840
total disaster, and that he doesn't understand the minutia. He does,

252
00:16:45,039 --> 00:16:48,879
he's not interested in the minutia. Explain to me, Ben

253
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,279
if they start deciding to talk about, for example, the economy,

254
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:59,679
and why, why why do Americans believe that Donald Trump

255
00:16:59,799 --> 00:17:05,160
is better equipped? Imagine how ridiculous this is, that Donald

256
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:10,000
Trump is better equipped to deal with our economy than

257
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,240
Joe Biden. Time the fuck out for a second, folks.

258
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,640
All right, let's be real clear. Stock market is at

259
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:23,960
an all time high. Okay, there you go, stock market

260
00:17:24,039 --> 00:17:26,920
and all time high. Your four to oh one k

261
00:17:27,799 --> 00:17:33,240
kicking as all right, you're talking about unemployment and all

262
00:17:33,559 --> 00:17:38,599
time low. I mean, we can go on. You have minority,

263
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:43,559
have black wealth increase has never been higher, and you

264
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,000
talk about all the various different things. The US's gross

265
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,119
domestic product, our economy is at least two and a

266
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:57,359
half times greater than any other economy in the world.

267
00:17:57,599 --> 00:18:00,519
We are now as of a couple of days, I

268
00:18:00,559 --> 00:18:06,599
think we are one hundred percent right now, energy self sufficient.

269
00:18:06,839 --> 00:18:09,599
The amount of oil that we are producing in this

270
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:19,240
country for ourselves makes us energy independent. Right? Trump? Really

271
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:27,039
the seven time bankrupt, you know, sexual offending, business fraud violator,

272
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,640
thirty four comp felon. Really, this is the guy who

273
00:18:30,759 --> 00:18:35,640
you think is better for the economy. Why because he's

274
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,920
turned on telling you he's gonna round up the largest

275
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,759
roundup of migrants and put him into internment camps. The

276
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,720
fuck are we talking about? What is this the nineteen thirties,

277
00:18:46,839 --> 00:18:50,920
early nineteen forties we're talking about in tournament camps? I mean,

278
00:18:51,039 --> 00:18:55,720
what is he babbling about? Why? Why is anybody taking

279
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:01,519
this orange crusted mandarin as clown? Serious? I couldn't run

280
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,200
a fucking business that he received hundreds of millions of

281
00:19:06,279 --> 00:19:10,640
dollars from Daddy. He couldn't run that business properly. And

282
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,519
he's going to run the United States economy? Come on, man,

283
00:19:15,079 --> 00:19:15,960
what are we doing?

284
00:19:17,559 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 7: Well?

285
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:23,319
Speaker 1: He's got tens of billions of dollars of right wing

286
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,880
money injecting that propaganda every single day at the national

287
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:33,200
cable news level with Fox and all of the lies

288
00:19:33,279 --> 00:19:37,440
that Fox tells every single day, to the local TV

289
00:19:37,599 --> 00:19:41,680
level with Sinclair and the lies that they spread across

290
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:46,359
local television every single day, to the lies that are

291
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,079
spread on social media platforms like.

292
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:50,759
Speaker 2: X and others.

293
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 1: I mean, there are billions and billions of dollars invested

294
00:19:56,799 --> 00:20:00,920
into these lies by a class of Americans who wants

295
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:05,119
to be the oligarchs Allah, the oligarchs of Putin, and

296
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,839
they don't care about our democracy. It's why it's important

297
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,559
that shows like this and the network like the Midas

298
00:20:12,599 --> 00:20:18,039
Touched Network really springs up from the fact that the

299
00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:21,720
corporate media is doing the both side stuff. They're trying

300
00:20:21,759 --> 00:20:25,039
to normalize that. You don't hear any of what you

301
00:20:25,279 --> 00:20:29,640
just said, though, other than maybe a very small segment Cohen,

302
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,480
I'll say, corporate media does mention it occasionally, But corporate

303
00:20:34,519 --> 00:20:36,160
media goes by narratives.

304
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:36,839
Speaker 2: Right.

305
00:20:37,039 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 1: The narrative that's run by corporate media is kind of

306
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,039
indistinguishable from the narrative that's pushed by the right wing media.

307
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,240
Then corporate media wants to act like they're being fair,

308
00:20:48,839 --> 00:20:52,359
so they say, well, you know, we're not into advocacy,

309
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,880
so we're just going to platform these lies that are

310
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:59,880
told by Trump and these magas and again, these the

311
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,880
lies to Cohen are so predictable it's the same thing

312
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,440
that they always do. Their moves are so obvious. I mean,

313
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,400
this is what Don Junior just posted a few hours ago.

314
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,960
Moments ago, he wrote this Live TV has a seven

315
00:21:15,079 --> 00:21:19,960
second delay. Why on earth would CNN need a one

316
00:21:20,039 --> 00:21:24,079
to two minute delay unless they were planning a and

317
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:29,359
manipulating tonight's debate. Same with Biden refusing to take drug test.

318
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,119
If he wasn't jacked up on all sorts of drugs,

319
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,200
why wouldn't he submit to such an easy test. As

320
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:40,559
Midas News editor in chief Ron Philipkowski writes, CNN has

321
00:21:40,599 --> 00:21:43,559
said that it will start at exactly nine. There will

322
00:21:43,559 --> 00:21:47,640
be no delay. This is just the latest conspiracy theory

323
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,480
for the cry baby Party as they continue to lie

324
00:21:51,559 --> 00:21:54,200
and lie. It's just what they do. And he may

325
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,559
be saying, well, where's Don Junior getting that information from

326
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:02,039
accounts like this? The big right wing influencer account, one

327
00:22:02,039 --> 00:22:05,400
of the big voices right now in the Republican Party

328
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:10,200
is cat Turd. It's cat feces. It's this account right

329
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:11,480
it's this account right here.

330
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,519
Speaker 2: He's attacked me quite a few times. Cat turn cat Turd.

331
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: Is one of the big and it's not This isn't

332
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,400
even like a joke like that is a big right

333
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:27,440
wing account. Don Junior has appeared on shows with the

334
00:22:27,519 --> 00:22:31,359
cat turd with the kind of emoji of the cat

335
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,319
turd itself there or the avatar and cat turd spreads

336
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,799
the lie. Here we go, CNN is already trying to

337
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,680
cheat and then Cohen, you just go back though to

338
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:46,920
the headlines from twenty sixteen and twenty twenty, their headlines

339
00:22:47,039 --> 00:22:49,920
like this, As Aaron Frischner says, he goes somewhere, Donald

340
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,720
Trump is wondering to himself how many times he can

341
00:22:52,759 --> 00:22:56,119
get away with doing these exact same stupid bits before

342
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,400
a debate. He doesn't even change it up a little bit,

343
00:22:58,799 --> 00:23:02,799
just counts on mass amnesia, which always seems to work out.

344
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 2: And you look at these exacts. That's not really true, Ben,

345
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,240
it doesn't always worked out. You know. You and I

346
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:14,319
on this program and on others, have demonstrated the number

347
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,839
of people Trump's supporters, people that stood on lines to

348
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:22,799
go to rallies, And while the rally was going on,

349
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,000
and Donald starts going into one of these you know,

350
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:33,440
riffs about sharks or electrocution or batteries in yachts run

351
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,519
by batteries or the great late Hannibal Lecter. They picked

352
00:23:37,519 --> 00:23:40,559
themselves up and they leave that you know how many times?

353
00:23:40,559 --> 00:23:42,440
And its salty if you're there and you have the

354
00:23:42,519 --> 00:23:44,839
old video. I mean, you know how many of these

355
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,680
videos have we seen so far of people just picking

356
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:53,000
themselves up and leave. Now, of course, what does Trump's tea?

357
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,240
You know, what do they do? They go ahead and

358
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,480
they talk about the size of the crowd. The place holds, say,

359
00:23:58,759 --> 00:24:02,400
ten thousand people in it. There were eighty thousand people

360
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:07,559
in the audience, eighty thousand. The place only holds ten thousand, right,

361
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,200
and it wasn't full. You could see off to the left,

362
00:24:10,279 --> 00:24:12,960
there's nobody there. Off to the right, there's nobody there.

363
00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:15,480
They have everybody a dead center. And then if you

364
00:24:15,519 --> 00:24:18,400
really look closely, during a lot of this sort of

365
00:24:18,559 --> 00:24:22,599
rambling horseshit that comes out of that gaping fucking hole

366
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,880
under Donald's nose, all of a sudden you see people

367
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,279
standing up, shaking their head, and then they leave. So

368
00:24:29,559 --> 00:24:33,400
nobody's being fooled by Donald's stupidity. And I'll tell you

369
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,680
something too, Tonight's going to be a very interesting night.

370
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,680
And again everybody's trying to say, oh, you know this

371
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,279
is Biden's night in order to really lose it or

372
00:24:44,319 --> 00:24:47,839
to win it. I totally disagree. It's the night that

373
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:52,079
either of them are totally gonna get bashed or they're

374
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,400
going to win this thing. Joe Biden is a guy

375
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:59,440
who understands the minutia. This is a guy that just

376
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,720
finished with the g seventh Summit. There's a guy who

377
00:25:02,799 --> 00:25:07,119
was off in Israel trying to negotiate some peace and

378
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:11,400
a truce between Israel and Hamas, get the hostages back,

379
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,440
and you know, figure out something something Middle Eastern peace.

380
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,720
Do I think he's going to be able to do it?

381
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,720
Absolutely not that this this sort of fighting has been

382
00:25:21,759 --> 00:25:25,200
going on for three thousand years, all right, This isn't

383
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,359
like it happened yesterday, and you could fix it tomorrow,

384
00:25:28,599 --> 00:25:32,000
like Trump will tell you. In fact, I really hope

385
00:25:32,039 --> 00:25:35,000
that one of the questions that they ask him, you know,

386
00:25:35,319 --> 00:25:40,400
mister Trump, to be honest with you, You've said on dozens

387
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:45,240
of occasions at rallies and on various different press programs

388
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,440
that you could fix the Russia Ukraine war in twenty

389
00:25:49,519 --> 00:25:53,039
four hours. You also have, you know, have stated that

390
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:57,799
you could resolve the Israel Kamas war in twenty four

391
00:25:57,839 --> 00:26:01,799
hours and many other things as well. Can you tell

392
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,359
us what the secret formula is that you would employ

393
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,160
that you would be able to do these things in

394
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,640
twenty four hours when your opponent hasn't seemed to be

395
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,039
able to do it in over three years, and, by

396
00:26:15,079 --> 00:26:18,160
the way, you weren't able to accomplish it in your

397
00:26:18,279 --> 00:26:23,480
four years either. That's a really good question to ask.

398
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,400
They're going to start asking him questions that holds him

399
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:31,359
to account on the things that he says. And then Trump,

400
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,480
of course, is going to turn around and he's going

401
00:26:33,559 --> 00:26:39,000
to claim an unfair question. It's a nasty question, That's

402
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,200
what he's gonna do. And if Joe Biden can really

403
00:26:42,279 --> 00:26:46,440
just beat it down right there, do a political beatdown

404
00:26:46,799 --> 00:26:50,720
right then and there, criticize Trump's intelligence, the fact that

405
00:26:50,799 --> 00:26:53,359
he has no idea what he's talking about, that he's

406
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:57,559
a con man, a felon, that he lies in everything

407
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,599
that he does, and the people that he has around

408
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,400
him are also lined for him. Blah blah blah. You'll

409
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,519
see this guy go completely uninged on television. In fact,

410
00:27:08,079 --> 00:27:11,720
in fact, if Biden keeps it up, and he does

411
00:27:11,759 --> 00:27:15,279
it again with a smile and a smirk and so on.

412
00:27:15,759 --> 00:27:18,519
Those are the things that really get under Donald's skint.

413
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,519
Don't be shocked if this debate doesn't go the full night.

414
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:22,680
You know.

415
00:27:22,799 --> 00:27:27,279
Speaker 1: I think what exists right now is also a phenomenon

416
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:32,039
that will be discussed after the general election, which is

417
00:27:32,799 --> 00:27:38,480
the silent Biden voter. And one of the goals that

418
00:27:38,559 --> 00:27:41,519
I have here, though, is to speak to those people,

419
00:27:41,559 --> 00:27:45,359
because they're not really silent. It's just corporate media isn't

420
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,559
talking to them. They're out there talking. And one of

421
00:27:49,559 --> 00:27:52,440
the ways I identified them and you did as well, Cohen,

422
00:27:52,559 --> 00:27:57,359
is we received tens of thousands of messages I would say,

423
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,839
over the course of the ten thousand videos we've done,

424
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,279
probably over one hundred thousand or close to it, messages

425
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,480
from people who kind of fit this description of either

426
00:28:08,599 --> 00:28:14,440
independent or former mainstream Republican. Maybe they consider themselves a

427
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,319
Reagan supporter, or they voted for George W. Bush and

428
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,599
they may have voted for Donald Trump the first time.

429
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,039
They may have even voted for Donald Trump the second time,

430
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,119
but there was a breaking point, whether it was January

431
00:28:25,319 --> 00:28:29,319
sixth or something like that, and there is look you

432
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,839
can say, well, they should have realized this sooner and

433
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,880
my response to that is, I welcome anybody to the

434
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:39,279
pro democracy community, and I'm not going to be judgmental

435
00:28:39,279 --> 00:28:42,880
and critical because we're at an existential moment right here.

436
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,200
But like, here's an individual by the name of Kyle

437
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:51,960
Sweetzer who I recently interviewed, and I hear this story

438
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:57,000
over and over again how important character is and decency

439
00:28:57,559 --> 00:29:02,119
and democracy over authority carrianism to take a listen.

440
00:29:02,559 --> 00:29:06,559
Speaker 8: The longer you stare at Trump and his record, the

441
00:29:06,599 --> 00:29:11,480
worst it gets. So you know, Trump's coosing up to

442
00:29:11,759 --> 00:29:19,559
foreign basically adversaries. He's uh, Oddly enough, some people don't

443
00:29:19,599 --> 00:29:23,039
like me saying this, but he's less conservative than Biden

444
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,920
on fiscal responsibility. He added eight trillion to the debt

445
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:32,400
even with without COVID. Uh, he's not physically responsible.

446
00:29:32,839 --> 00:29:33,319
Speaker 9: Uh.

447
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 8: He gave people a license to to act bad out

448
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,759
and out in the open. And I think that, uh,

449
00:29:39,799 --> 00:29:44,279
the mag of movement just needs to be destroyed. And

450
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,079
I think any rational person that starts listening to Trump

451
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,119
instead of directly, instead of having someone else regurgitate what

452
00:29:52,119 --> 00:29:54,519
Trump says, I think if you listen to Trump and

453
00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:58,480
then you listen to Biden speak, it's night and day

454
00:29:58,519 --> 00:30:03,039
there's no comparison. Trump is unhinged and he's just not

455
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,720
fit to lead, certainly not fit to be the president

456
00:30:06,759 --> 00:30:08,240
of the United States.

457
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,839
Speaker 1: Cohen, I want to talk more about that, but I

458
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,920
also want to remind everybody about your new YouTube channel

make sure you subscribe there. We'll be right back. We

469
00:30:56,759 --> 00:30:58,359
got a lot to talk about. I want to talk

470
00:30:58,359 --> 00:31:00,400
about that clip I just showed Cohen as well when

471
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,519
we get back from our first quick break.

472
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 5: A small regret is slouching in the dentist chair thinking

473
00:31:05,519 --> 00:31:08,240
I should have brushed and floss better. A big health

474
00:31:08,279 --> 00:31:11,039
regret is listening to your doctor and thinking I should

475
00:31:11,039 --> 00:31:13,880
have paid attention to nutrition when I was younger. Better

476
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,279
health today and when it matters most, is why I

477
00:31:16,359 --> 00:31:19,319
take Field of Greens. Field of Greens is unlike any

478
00:31:19,359 --> 00:31:22,680
fruit and vegetable or a green product. Field of Greens

479
00:31:22,799 --> 00:31:27,319
isn't water down extracts. Field of Greens is an organic superfood.

480
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,079
Its whole fruits and vegetables. Each fruit and vegetable was

481
00:31:31,119 --> 00:31:36,759
selected by doctors to support vital body functions like heart, liver, kidneys, metabolism,

482
00:31:36,839 --> 00:31:39,920
and the immune system. And only Field of Greens is

483
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,079
backed by a better health promise. At your next checkup,

484
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,640
your doctor will notice your improved health or your money back.

485
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,039
Don't look back and say I should have paid attention

486
00:31:49,079 --> 00:31:51,759
to nutrition when I was younger. Field of Greens is

487
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,920
key to better health today and when it matters most.

491
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,799
take a quick break to talk about our next partner.

492
00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:09,279
Speaker 1: Ron.

493
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,319
Speaker 5: If you're like me, you understand the pains of finding

494
00:32:12,359 --> 00:32:14,880
out what to wear. Let's face it, most clothes are

495
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,200
uncomfortable or too tight, or never actually the size that

496
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,599
you really are, and not to mention the annoyance of

497
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,920
trying to put together a good outfit. And when you

498
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,839
finally do have a good fit, you can only wear

499
00:32:24,839 --> 00:32:27,000
it for a few hours before you have an important

500
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,799
meeting or dinner and then you have to change. Everyone

501
00:32:29,799 --> 00:32:32,039
wants to dress their best and look good at all

502
00:32:32,079 --> 00:32:35,839
times because, frankly, it's a confidence booster. So here's the deal.

503
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,759
Men's closets were due for a radical reinvention, and Ron

504
00:32:39,839 --> 00:32:43,039
stepped up to the challenge. Ron's Commuter Collection is the

505
00:32:43,079 --> 00:32:47,119
most comfortable, breathable, and flexible set of products known to man.

506
00:32:47,359 --> 00:32:50,319
And here's why. Ron helps you get ready for any

507
00:32:50,319 --> 00:32:53,880
occasion with the Commuter Collection, which offers the world's most

508
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,880
comfortable pants, dress shirts, quarter zips, and polos. You never

509
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,880
have to worry about what to wear when you have

510
00:33:00,119 --> 00:33:03,920
the Roane Commuter Collection. Rone's comfortable four way stretch fabric

511
00:33:04,039 --> 00:33:07,559
provides breatheability and flexibility that leaves you free to enjoy

512
00:33:07,599 --> 00:33:10,119
what life throws your way, from your commute to work

513
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,240
to your eighteen holes of golf. It's time to feel

514
00:33:13,279 --> 00:33:17,559
confident without the hassle. With Roane's wrinkle release technology, wrinkles

515
00:33:17,599 --> 00:33:21,720
disappear as you stretch and wear the products. It's that easy.

516
00:33:22,039 --> 00:33:25,599
With the gold fusion antiodoor technology, you'll be smelling fresh

517
00:33:25,599 --> 00:33:27,880
and clean all day long. And on top of that,

518
00:33:28,119 --> 00:33:31,279
Roan is one hundred percent machine washable, so you can

519
00:33:31,319 --> 00:33:35,319
ditch the dry cleaner altogether. I absolutely love Roan. This

520
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,559
has truly become my go to commuter fit. We're on

521
00:33:38,599 --> 00:33:41,240
the move a lot, whether it's jumping from meeting to meeting,

522
00:33:41,319 --> 00:33:44,200
or catching a flight or an important dinner. The Rone

523
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,640
Commuter Collection has never let me down. The versatility and

524
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,279
overall comfort of the collection is undefeated, and even after

525
00:33:51,319 --> 00:33:53,599
I wear it all day, I still feel super fresh

526
00:33:53,759 --> 00:33:57,759
because of that gold fusion antiodoor technology. The Commuter Collection

527
00:33:57,839 --> 00:34:00,559
can get you through any workday and straightened do whatever

528
00:34:00,599 --> 00:34:04,519
comes next. So right now, head to Ron dot com

time to find your corner office. And now back to

535
00:34:26,079 --> 00:34:26,480
the video.

536
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: Welcome back to political Beatdown. Our democracy sponsor.

537
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 2: Yes, I wanted to thank all pro democracy sponsors. You

538
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,599
know you always you always do it. And you know

539
00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:41,039
sometimes they say, how come Michael Cohen doesn't have a

540
00:34:41,079 --> 00:34:43,920
thank us? Well, yes, on behalf of Ben and myself.

541
00:34:44,119 --> 00:34:46,800
I do. I thank you. Now take it away, Ben

542
00:34:47,639 --> 00:34:48,280
so Cohen.

543
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 1: I showed you that clip right there of Kyle Sweetzer.

544
00:34:52,639 --> 00:34:55,840
I think there's a lot of Kyle Sweetzers out there

545
00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:03,199
who regret their votes for Donald in the past. Who look,

546
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:08,599
they've been so entrenched in the Republican Party their entire

547
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,559
like it's their identity. So just think about it like

548
00:35:12,599 --> 00:35:16,039
a sports team, which is not necessarily your full identity.

549
00:35:16,119 --> 00:35:17,519
Speaker 9: Right, if you.

550
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 1: Were a Mets fan, how difficult would it be to

551
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,239
be go from a Mets fan to all of a

552
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,519
sudden becoming a Yankee fan or rooting for the Yankees.

553
00:35:25,559 --> 00:35:28,639
Now that's totally frivolous, right, Mets ving it doesn't have

554
00:35:28,679 --> 00:35:32,800
an impact, But imagine your entire life. You were a

555
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:38,360
Republican and then your party and your identity was then

556
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:43,280
taken over by some other thing. But you were still

557
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,519
told that this was are you're a Republican, this is it,

558
00:35:46,599 --> 00:35:49,760
and you know that's not it, but you know that

559
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,199
if you move away, you're going to be exiled from

560
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,679
your entire life and from your entire community. When we

561
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,840
speak to CULTI programmers and when we speak to people

562
00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:03,679
and we try to understand the pathology, because I really

563
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,079
want to be empathetic and sympathetic and try to really

564
00:36:07,199 --> 00:36:09,800
understand why isn't it so obvious?

565
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:10,760
Speaker 2: Why is it that.

566
00:36:10,679 --> 00:36:15,159
Speaker 1: People don't leave that there really is these strong connections

567
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:20,360
all wrapped up in identity and the fear of exile,

568
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,480
and then the fear that all of the people who

569
00:36:23,559 --> 00:36:27,199
you've let down for your views or that you hurt

570
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:33,880
you will be conceding that you were wrong, and so paradoxically,

571
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,559
rather than admit it, you go further down the rabbit hole.

572
00:36:37,599 --> 00:36:43,440
There's a psychological, pathological explanation for it, which is why

573
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,679
one of the things I want to open up this

574
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,760
network to is to just always let people know that

575
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,000
when it comes to compassion and empathy and love and

576
00:36:53,039 --> 00:36:58,159
democracy and caring for each other, that this platform focuses

577
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:03,079
almost most on that rather than political tribalism, going.

578
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:08,280
Speaker 2: So look, you know, I agree with you, though the

579
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:14,199
Trump cult is very, very different. Believe it or not.

580
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:18,159
You got somebody like Steve Miller, all right, Stephen Miller,

581
00:37:18,519 --> 00:37:21,840
by coincidence, happens to be from the same hometown that

582
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,360
I'm from. And I can tell you from people who

583
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,000
I know who know his family, that they are disgusted

584
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,960
by him and the things that he's doing and the

585
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,559
things that he's saying on their behalf. And I don't

586
00:37:34,559 --> 00:37:37,480
know what sort of a relationship that this kid has

587
00:37:37,599 --> 00:37:41,400
anymore with his family. He's willing to trade in his

588
00:37:41,639 --> 00:37:48,960
family for his position now with Trump. I find it

589
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,440
absolutely amazing. And I know for a fact, because this

590
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,280
is a guy that never had, you know, any he

591
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:59,559
never had any real interaction with media. From twenty sixteen

592
00:37:59,599 --> 00:38:02,360
through twenty twenty. All of a sudden, you turn on

593
00:38:02,639 --> 00:38:07,199
like Newsmax that as Lewandowski as the moderator. And it's

594
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:10,599
very funny because Lewandowski does some weird shit with his mouth,

595
00:38:10,639 --> 00:38:16,639
all saying he's oh, I mean, it's like like his

596
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,480
jaw has its own separate battery pack. I mean, it's

597
00:38:20,519 --> 00:38:23,480
it's crazy. And then they say the craziest things. But

598
00:38:23,519 --> 00:38:25,239
I do also want to say, do you remember I

599
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:29,079
think it was Animal House. I found this one audio sound.

600
00:38:30,039 --> 00:38:34,840
I would love if Biden would pull something like this out.

601
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,159
Just imagine this, Oh Zhon, It's like for me, I'm

602
00:38:39,199 --> 00:38:44,320
turning this debate. I'm turning the debate into a Bravo

603
00:38:44,519 --> 00:38:48,679
reality show. But that's really what it's what it's going

604
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,559
to be. Could you imagine if Biden either he memorizes

605
00:38:52,679 --> 00:38:55,159
this or he turns on and he pulls this out

606
00:38:55,199 --> 00:38:58,719
of that. I think it was like Dean Wermer from

607
00:38:59,159 --> 00:39:03,159
Animal House saying it to like Blue Tartski or you know,

608
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,599
one of the other guys at the Animal House. And

609
00:39:05,679 --> 00:39:08,039
I found the clip so I just wanted to play

610
00:39:08,039 --> 00:39:09,920
it for a quick second.

611
00:39:09,639 --> 00:39:13,800
Speaker 10: Said, It's one of the most insanely idiotic things I've

612
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:19,320
ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response

613
00:39:20,039 --> 00:39:23,400
were you even close to anything that could be considered

614
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,840
a rational thought.

615
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 1: In his room is now dumber for having listened to it.

616
00:39:30,519 --> 00:39:36,199
Speaker 10: There were you no points, and the god.

617
00:39:36,599 --> 00:39:39,639
Speaker 2: That's what he should do. Just pull it out and say,

618
00:39:40,119 --> 00:39:43,639
I could not have said it better than the nineteen seventies,

619
00:39:44,039 --> 00:39:48,760
you know recitation by Dean Warmer, What you said just

620
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:54,159
now has made us all much stupider than we were

621
00:39:54,639 --> 00:39:59,239
just prior to listening to your answer. That's what Biden

622
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,920
needs to do, and again, he needs to do it

623
00:40:02,199 --> 00:40:06,199
with a He needs to do it with almost like

624
00:40:06,599 --> 00:40:09,280
a smile. Oh I feel bad. Some people said that

625
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,960
they couldn't hear it. Well, basically, it's what you just

626
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,920
said is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. YadA, YadA, YadA.

627
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,239
It is hilarious when it relates to Donald and what's

628
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:24,039
gonna happen tonight. You are going to hear one. Oh,

629
00:40:24,039 --> 00:40:27,559
it's from Billy Madison. Oh okay, I'm sorry. I thought

630
00:40:27,559 --> 00:40:30,760
it was from Dean Warman. My apologies. You may be right.

631
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:36,360
It's another great movie Billy Madison with Adam Sandler. One

632
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,639
of the things that I can say about tonight is

633
00:40:39,679 --> 00:40:44,679
that Trump is going to get very frustrated and very quickly.

634
00:40:45,159 --> 00:40:49,000
And we're already hearing the rumblings from people inside the

635
00:40:49,039 --> 00:40:52,400
Trump camp. When you start to see Don Junior, who's

636
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,880
not even in the country right now. I think he's

637
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,440
either in Dubai or he's in Oman where they're doing

638
00:40:58,519 --> 00:41:03,119
some real estate project. Imagine really, because all the projects

639
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:07,440
that the Trumps have done overseas, whether it's Toronto, whether

640
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:15,320
it was uh, what's the uh in Spain, they all

641
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:19,360
have gone out of business. They've all lost the rights

642
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,519
to have the Trump name on the properties. I mean,

643
00:41:22,679 --> 00:41:25,079
it's it's, it is what it looks, it is what

644
00:41:25,119 --> 00:41:29,400
it is. Knocked themselves out. But from Oman, he's sitting

645
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,920
there and talking about how Joe Biden is on drugs

646
00:41:33,159 --> 00:41:36,920
and that, you know, CNN is going to be playing fair,

647
00:41:37,079 --> 00:41:40,679
you know, unfair once again making Donald the victim. By

648
00:41:40,679 --> 00:41:44,639
the way, Ben, have you ever seen anyone Brigaders, have

649
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:50,960
you ever seen anyone more victimized than Donald J. Trump?

650
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,920
I mean, come on, you have to feel bad for

651
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,599
the guy who was literally victimized every single day since

652
00:41:57,639 --> 00:42:00,840
the day that he made the announcement right in June

653
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,800
of twenty fifteen. This guy has been victimized by everybody.

654
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:09,360
I mean, talk about how crazy it is that people

655
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:13,639
are still buying into the victimization of Donald as opposed

656
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:16,360
to Donald victimizing everybody else.

657
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 1: You know, the deal in Oman was brokeered by the

658
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:26,280
Saudis who said that they have Kushner in his pocket.

659
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:30,920
And so while all the Maga Republicans. All they know

660
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,400
how to do is say, Hunter Biden, you have Don

661
00:42:34,519 --> 00:42:40,800
Junior on an airplane doing this in a Saudi broker deal,

662
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:45,920
where Saudi Arabia has said NBS has said that he

663
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,440
got the enemy list or the kill list from people

664
00:42:49,599 --> 00:42:53,559
like Kushner before NBS had his own purge. And then

665
00:42:53,599 --> 00:42:58,360
you have Don Junior doing this today before the debate.

666
00:42:58,440 --> 00:42:59,199
Play this clip.

667
00:43:00,159 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 9: Did a day trip to Dubai and Oman.

668
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,079
Speaker 11: We have a project in Oman, projects in Dubai, just

669
00:43:06,119 --> 00:43:08,960
checking in on the day job. Literally, I'm on the

670
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,039
ground for eighteen hours and I think I did thirty

671
00:43:11,119 --> 00:43:14,599
something hours of flying. But if you're gonna fly that much,

672
00:43:15,199 --> 00:43:17,960
this is a great way to do it. I'm in

673
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,519
first class on Emirates and this is sick. These beds

674
00:43:22,079 --> 00:43:25,079
lie down, go fully flat, the doors closed. You're in

675
00:43:25,119 --> 00:43:32,760
your entire enclosed cubbies. Pretty spectacular, great food, more legroom

676
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:33,960
than I couldn't know what to do with.

677
00:43:34,119 --> 00:43:36,519
Speaker 9: And like I said, the beds fly.

678
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,119
Speaker 11: Out flat and they even have mattresses to go on

679
00:43:40,159 --> 00:43:40,719
top of them.

680
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,440
Speaker 9: So if you're gonna do if you're gonna do.

681
00:43:45,039 --> 00:43:47,159
Speaker 11: Eighteen hours on the ground, a day trip to the

682
00:43:47,159 --> 00:43:49,639
Middle East, this is the way to do it.

683
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:50,280
Speaker 9: Figure.

684
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:51,800
Speaker 11: I had to share that one with you, guys, because

685
00:43:52,119 --> 00:43:55,039
I'm a reasonably spoiled individual and this is still pretty spectacular.

686
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,719
Speaker 9: Have a good one, guys.

687
00:43:59,519 --> 00:44:05,079
Speaker 1: It's right in our faces. And how could the cult

688
00:44:05,599 --> 00:44:10,239
like that? I mean, that's why everything they do is

689
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,719
projection or confession. I think, by the way, the workers

690
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,679
at Oman, I think we're making about like three hundred

691
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:20,800
dollars a month in connection with that project. Anyway, I

692
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:22,960
could show you more clips of Don Junior, but I

693
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:24,559
don't want to show anymore. It's repulsive.

694
00:44:25,039 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 2: You know. What would be really interesting too if the

695
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,599
two get into a back and forth debate. You know,

696
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:37,000
I would be interested to understand Donald Trump's newly found

697
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:42,880
fascination with the Ten Commandments, considering, if you go through

698
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,559
each and every one of the commandments, donald Trump has

699
00:44:46,679 --> 00:44:51,000
violated that commandment at some point in time in his life.

700
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,119
So it's amazing, you know. Once again, it goes to

701
00:44:54,159 --> 00:44:57,280
the whole notion of do as I say, clearly, not

702
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,880
as I do. And I would love to see Joe

703
00:45:00,039 --> 00:45:04,039
Biden turn around and say to him, you know, isn't

704
00:45:04,119 --> 00:45:07,159
one of the ten commandments thou shalt not covet thy

705
00:45:07,199 --> 00:45:10,000
neighbor's wife. Okay, maybe it's not your neighbor, but haveout

706
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,440
the guy down the block, or thou shall not covet,

707
00:45:13,519 --> 00:45:18,280
you know, a porn star and a playboy playmate, right,

708
00:45:18,519 --> 00:45:22,880
thou shalt not you know, let you know, bare false witness.

709
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:27,519
Uh and so really, because there's nothing that you say

710
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,519
that has any semblance of truth to it. In fact,

711
00:45:31,559 --> 00:45:35,239
it's been determined that you lie to the American people

712
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:40,079
forgetting about COVID that cost a million Americans their lives.

713
00:45:40,599 --> 00:45:43,760
How about right, you cannot covet your daughter either, right,

714
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,199
and you shouldn't be having bad thoughts about her. But

715
00:45:47,679 --> 00:45:52,199
at the same time, you know, seriously, I mean, you

716
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:57,320
lied over thirty five thousand times to the American people,

717
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:01,039
including on an epidemic, on a pandemic.

718
00:46:01,639 --> 00:46:06,159
Speaker 1: Really, here is what it looks like to be a

719
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,199
maga Republican in Congress today. They have to dress Donald

720
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,559
Trump dresses them up. Just think about that, a coequal

721
00:46:13,599 --> 00:46:18,719
branch of government. Donald Trump makes them wear outfits. And

722
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,679
this is how he dresses them up. Here's Congressman Troy Nells.

723
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,639
He makes them wear his gold shoes, his fake gold

724
00:46:26,639 --> 00:46:29,280
shoes with the fake red bottoms right there that he

725
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,880
sells for five hundred dollars. He then makes them wear

726
00:46:33,039 --> 00:46:38,159
ties with his picture on the ties, and then they

727
00:46:38,199 --> 00:46:42,119
say things like, other than faith and family, the only

728
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,800
hope we have is President Donald J.

729
00:46:46,039 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 2: Trump.

730
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:49,519
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the Republican Party that was supposed

731
00:46:49,519 --> 00:46:49,679
to do.

732
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:53,679
Speaker 2: We shall not have a God before thee right, right,

733
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,280
that shall not have a God before me?

734
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, And they're all like this, and they all go

735
00:46:59,559 --> 00:47:02,559
on and then they just whine. Here is a cat

736
00:47:02,639 --> 00:47:09,000
camic Maga, Republican congresswoman, whining and crying about how biased

737
00:47:09,039 --> 00:47:12,079
the debate is before the debate even takes place. Watch

738
00:47:12,159 --> 00:47:13,159
this from moments ago.

739
00:47:13,639 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 12: We know that this is an exceptionally biased debate that

740
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,920
he's walking into. Then shows the confidence that he has

741
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:23,320
that our team has in walking into this entirely one

742
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:24,519
sided debate already.

743
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:26,039
Speaker 2: But I think it's going to.

744
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 12: Be exceptionally telling if they try to pull a fast one,

745
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,559
if they try to mute or silence Donald Trump. The

746
00:47:32,599 --> 00:47:35,320
American people at large we'll see right through this and

747
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,159
will be outraged. This can only hurt Joe Biden, not

748
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,280
help him by silencing Jhnald Yeah.

749
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:40,559
Speaker 9: Because.

750
00:47:42,119 --> 00:47:47,079
Speaker 1: Here's Andy Ogle's Maga Republican Congressman. Here play this clipe.

751
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:51,039
Speaker 13: By the way, I have my bill, the no Juicing Joe,

752
00:47:51,039 --> 00:47:54,440
which would require him to be to divulge, to report

753
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,760
to the American people anytime that he takes a mind

754
00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:59,159
altering stimulant, like we know he's going to have to

755
00:47:59,159 --> 00:48:01,639
do before this debate. They're going to have him juiced

756
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,000
up and jacked up on some sort of cocktail so

757
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:05,800
that he can be lucid and take on or at

758
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,599
least try to debate Donald Trump.

759
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 8: Congressman Andy Ogle's Pride of Tennessee, God bless you.

760
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:11,880
Speaker 9: My friend will talk to soon.

761
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 1: By the way, here's maga Mike Johnson. Let me show

762
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:16,400
you this clip.

763
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 2: Let's play it.

764
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,039
Speaker 14: Like many, I look forward to hearing Donald Trump lay

765
00:48:20,039 --> 00:48:22,280
out his vision for the country. It's a positive vision,

766
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,239
it's a forward vision.

767
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:25,360
Speaker 2: He is excited.

768
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,280
Speaker 14: I talked to him, spent a lot of time with

769
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,880
him last week down in Mary Lago and then on

770
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,000
the phone over the weekend, and he's in a very

771
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:34,239
good place. And I expect that you're going to see

772
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:38,920
a sharp contrast between President Trump's positive agenda and Joe

773
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,719
Biden's proven weakness. And I did a lot of media

774
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:45,840
over the last several days, and everybody wants to know

775
00:48:46,679 --> 00:48:48,119
which Joe Biden's.

776
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 1: Going to show up.

777
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 14: And I look, my summary is this, it doesn't matter

778
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,559
if he drinks a whole gallon of energy drinks. He's

779
00:48:52,599 --> 00:48:55,800
not going to be able to match the acumen and

780
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,400
the readiness of Donald Trump. And that's what we expect,

781
00:48:58,800 --> 00:48:59,280
even if.

782
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,760
Speaker 2: The I mean, could you imagine, you know, there's a

783
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,679
funny expression like uh and I would say this to Maga,

784
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:11,800
Mike jerk Off. I would say to him, Hymga, Mike,

785
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,920
do you know the difference between a brown nose and

786
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:20,159
an ass kisser? And the answer is depth perception, all right,

787
00:49:20,679 --> 00:49:24,400
there's something wrong with this guy's glasses. The fact that

788
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,480
this guy is the Speaker of the House, this lame,

789
00:49:27,679 --> 00:49:32,840
fucking pathetic putts, this puts and a half, right, this bootlegger.

790
00:49:33,159 --> 00:49:36,840
I mean, it's unbelievable that he's sitting there and he's

791
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:40,079
denigrating the President of the United States talking about amped

792
00:49:40,199 --> 00:49:45,480
up on drugs. Seriously, I mean, that's the only way

793
00:49:45,639 --> 00:49:48,320
that you think Joe Biden is going to be able

794
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:53,440
to beat Donald Trump. Donald Trump's nonsensical rantings that go

795
00:49:53,559 --> 00:49:57,559
on at his rally. The fact that they're doing this

796
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:01,840
before the debate even takes place because they know, they

797
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:05,800
know that Trump is gonna end up shitting himself. Von

798
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,760
schitz and Pants is gonna lose it because he is

799
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,559
so thin skinned. He cannot take the heat. He can't

800
00:50:12,559 --> 00:50:16,159
take They can't ask whatever question do you remember in

801
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:20,880
one of the debates in the last election, I think

802
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:24,960
it was Megan Kelly asked him a question and he

803
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:29,519
didn't like the question. It's a fair question to ask,

804
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,960
turns around and he goes it's a very nasty question.

805
00:50:34,119 --> 00:50:37,800
It's the nasty question. And he doesn't even answer the question.

806
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,000
But what this is, what he's going to do? There

807
00:50:41,079 --> 00:50:44,639
is nothing, There is nothing that this man can explain

808
00:50:45,679 --> 00:50:50,920
in any significance, with any significance at all, that we're

809
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:55,159
all gonna look at him and say, Wow, truly, we

810
00:50:55,239 --> 00:51:01,239
are all smarter today and understand more about what this

811
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,480
topic might be and what the issue is. Thanks to you,

812
00:51:06,119 --> 00:51:10,320
Donald von schitzen Pants. All right, nobody's gonna be saying

813
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:14,199
that now. His MAGA supporters will say, yeah, Donald, you

814
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:19,039
did great, you did great, and no, no, all right,

815
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:25,039
rest assured. My prediction for tonight Trump bombs. I think

816
00:51:25,119 --> 00:51:28,400
Biden does well, all right. Do I think that each

817
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:33,440
one will have a gaff? Yeah, I think Biden will

818
00:51:33,599 --> 00:51:39,039
also have a gaff, But so what, so what? I

819
00:51:39,079 --> 00:51:41,599
think Von shitzen Pants is going to make such a

820
00:51:41,639 --> 00:51:47,079
fool out of himself fighting with the moderators day. From

821
00:51:47,119 --> 00:51:50,000
the beginning to the end of the day. He's gonna

822
00:51:50,039 --> 00:51:53,000
be fighting with them, thinking that he could bully them.

823
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,280
All right, he doesn't have the audience. He's not gonna

824
00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:59,440
have his my capability to try to overtalk, even though

825
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:01,960
you're gonna hear I'm yelling in the background. All right,

826
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:05,239
he's going to get so frustrated. I wouldn't be shocked.

827
00:52:05,599 --> 00:52:08,440
I'd give it a twenty five percent chance that von

828
00:52:08,519 --> 00:52:11,559
shitz and Pants walks off the stage and says, this

829
00:52:11,599 --> 00:52:14,159
is a waste of my time. I'll just beat Joe

830
00:52:14,199 --> 00:52:15,320
Biden at the polls.

831
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:20,679
Speaker 1: Let me share with you this because with everything Magga Republicans,

832
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:25,480
it's all projection and confession, and so in the lead

833
00:52:25,559 --> 00:52:30,360
up to the debate, we prepared this short to getting

834
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,760
a lot of attention, kind of a throwback to the

835
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,360
origins of when Midas Touched first started. Let me share

836
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,599
this with you, because what we really call out is

837
00:52:39,639 --> 00:52:44,639
what is truly taking place, just the facts and the data.

838
00:52:45,079 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 2: Let's show it to you.

839
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:50,199
Speaker 5: And my stupid people.

840
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:54,079
Speaker 2: When I wanted to refute it, they said, sir, don't

841
00:52:54,159 --> 00:52:57,320
dignify it with they we fuddle.

842
00:52:59,159 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 7: Have you been noticed peculiar behavior recently in someone you know?

843
00:53:03,159 --> 00:53:06,960
Taroedye byrat, someone who mixes fiction and reality.

844
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 2: The late great Hannibal Lecter.

845
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 9: He's a wonderful man.

846
00:53:10,599 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 7: Perhaps someone of advanced age you have known for years.

847
00:53:13,559 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 2: Did you just see Maduro Venez where Although it's a unbelievable.

848
00:53:18,199 --> 00:53:22,119
Speaker 7: Venel, of course, we all have our goops, But consistently

849
00:53:22,159 --> 00:53:25,880
odd behavior can be a sign of fronto temporal dementia,

850
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:30,360
a degenerative disease of the frontal and temporal lobes of

851
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:34,400
the brain that dramatically impairs cognitive function, and there are

852
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:38,719
some key signs to look out for, like slurring words.

853
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:43,199
Speaker 2: Failing New York Times by an anomous really.

854
00:53:43,519 --> 00:53:47,199
Speaker 7: Namous struggling to find the correct words is another sign.

855
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:52,760
Speaker 2: The Mullor report I wish covered the oranges, the oranges

856
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:56,639
or the oranges of the investigation.

857
00:53:56,920 --> 00:54:01,119
Speaker 7: You may also notice someone veering into incoherent idea detached

858
00:54:01,119 --> 00:54:01,840
from reality.

859
00:54:02,039 --> 00:54:03,519
Speaker 11: You know what I'd do if there was a shark

860
00:54:04,039 --> 00:54:05,159
or you get electrocuted.

861
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:09,280
Speaker 4: I'll take electrocution every single time I'm not getting dear

862
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:10,159
the shark.

863
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:14,119
Speaker 7: Or an inability to complete simple sentences.

864
00:54:13,199 --> 00:54:16,239
Speaker 9: Saudi Arabian Russia will repeat.

865
00:54:18,119 --> 00:54:22,639
Speaker 7: Other notable symptoms include impaired motor function, such as a

866
00:54:22,679 --> 00:54:27,920
wavering limb and decreased balance, often accompanied by a signature

867
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:32,920
lean or arched stance. If someone you know is demonstrating

868
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:38,239
several or all of these symptoms, they are seriously unwell.

869
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:41,159
As a matter of safety, they must be relieved of

870
00:54:41,199 --> 00:54:46,559
critical responsibilities and disqualified from any position of authority. Remember,

871
00:54:47,119 --> 00:54:52,239
frontotemporal dementia is a degenerative disease. Cognitive function will never

872
00:54:52,320 --> 00:55:05,760
return and will only deteriorate further. Don't ignore the signs.

873
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:09,519
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen, two fingers salute, So two fingers salute first

874
00:55:09,519 --> 00:55:11,800
and foremost goes to each and every one of these.

875
00:55:11,679 --> 00:55:15,400
Speaker 2: Maga assholes who turn around and want to question that

876
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:18,039
Joe Biden is on drugs and that he's going to

877
00:55:18,119 --> 00:55:21,280
be all doped up on some sort of a cocktail,

878
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,000
you know, from the Stephen Millers, to the Don Juniors,

879
00:55:25,039 --> 00:55:28,719
to the MAGA Mike Johnson's, to all of these assholes

880
00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:31,559
on Newsmax and Fox News and so on. I mean

881
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,840
it beyond the fact that it's disrespectful to the President

882
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,000
of the United States, it is untrue. It is not

883
00:55:39,119 --> 00:55:42,760
based on any on any fact at all. And I

884
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,239
find it, and honestly I find it. No one's going

885
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,400
to turn around and say, hey, they're going to be,

886
00:55:47,639 --> 00:55:52,159
you know, boosting Donald Trump's cognitive ability by giving him

887
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:55,559
some sort of a cocktail that deals with dementia. You know,

888
00:55:55,599 --> 00:55:58,199
they have these new drugs out now, you know that

889
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,840
maybe he's on one of those cocktail. Certainly with his

890
00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:05,719
MAGA supporters, he can afford it. Nobody's questioning that, all right,

891
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:07,760
We're just questioning the fact that he's going to act

892
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,639
like a human being and not a complete and total asshole.

893
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,079
So to each and every one of these MAGA morons,

894
00:56:14,119 --> 00:56:17,119
the ones that don't believe that Joe Biden is going

895
00:56:17,199 --> 00:56:19,079
to be able to whip the shit out of Donald

896
00:56:19,159 --> 00:56:24,079
Trump tonight, because Joe Biden knows facts. Joe Biden's been

897
00:56:24,119 --> 00:56:27,559
doing this for fifty years. Trump has been screwing shit

898
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:30,920
up for what six to all of you maga assholes.

899
00:56:31,199 --> 00:56:31,719
