Speaker 1: Welcome back to The Michael Cohen Show. On our journey,
our continued journey to two hundred and fifty thousand subscribers.
There's no need to unsubscribe. In fact, you should be
subscribing and sharing this because we're building a community that
we're going to need starting January twentieth of twenty twenty five.
And I say that because right in the days after
the election, with the days that after the election was decided,
Trump was actually fairly quiet on social media. Many of
us turned around and said, Wow, can't believe it. Maybe
maybe he's turning over a different leaf. But now now
in the last couple of days, he's gone back to
his usual ways. In fact, he's reposted a fake picture
of him surfing. Surfing we kicked some ass this weekend
a mean about him winning the presidency. In our lifetime,
politicians will come and go, but there will never be
another president like Donald J. Trump. And then he goes
ahead and he posts the cover of the New York
Post Life of the Party. How Trump won more young people,
more black and Hispanic men, and forged a new Republican coalition. Now,
let's look at it. So, first of all, I think
the first thing, we have to ask ourselves why why?
First of all, why show yourself surfing? Why turn around
show yourself? You know, winning the president we all know,
we all know the whole country was tuned in. I'm
not really sure I understand the purpose other than, of course, gloating.
So now I want us to look at a series
of his posts, which again I can't understand the reason.
I can't understand it, which still have his usual rantings.
So first he goes on and he thanks everyone for winning.
But before I read it, please note that he goes
on to say that he won the popular vote by
seven million. Now as of this recording, according to the
Associated Press. Right now, my understanding is that he's ahead
by three point five million. Before I start to read it,
I really just want to draw your attention to this.
Who gives a shit? If you win by one vote,
by three and a half million, by seven million, or
seventeen million, you still won. That's the whole issue here.
Put it up. Thank you God won all swing states
and the popular vote by almost seven million. Voters got
three hundred and twelve electoral votes, and in the great
state of Texas won thirty one of thirty two statewide
judicial benches, and every county in the Rio Grand Valley.
They were all blue years ago and got one million
more Texas votes than in twenty twenty. Now again, I'm
just trying to understand, you know, think about it this way.
Think about if, like when the New York Yankees lost
to the Dodgers. Could you just imagine if they start
posting all of the various different New York Post articles
or claiming that you know, their pitchers pitched you know,
two hundred and thirteen pitches, of which one hundred of
them were balls and one thirteen were strikes. In the hours,
we had two hundred and pitches and one hundred and
fifty with strikes versus p I mean, at the end
of the day, who gives a shit. It doesn't matter,
what's the point that you're trying to make. It just
doesn't make any sense. So after going ahead and thanking
every and so on, he decides that he's going to
go after many of his political enemies. And here are
his comments, for example on Nicki Haley. I will not
be inviting former Ambassador Nicki Haley or former Secretary of
State Mike Pompeo to join the Trump administration, which is
currently information. I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with
them previously and would like to thank them for their
service to our country make America great again. Why specifically
call out NICKI Haley and Mike Pompeo because he wasn't
certain that they would sign the loyalty pledge that he wants?
Is that the issue that he's only going to fill
the cabinet positions, as he's recently said, with loyalists and
folks that will do anything and everything that he says
very dangerous. It's very very dangerous. Then Liz Chain, he
decides to post about the Democrats made a big, capital,
big mistake in getting crazy Liz Cheney and her father
Dick involved in their campaign for president. It made the
Republicans angry and the Democrats just playing scratching their heads
in amazement. It is always a bad idea to bring
in quote losers into a political campaign. Again, again, this
is not presidential. This is not how you unite the country.
After God knows how long of this divisive, chaotic rhetoric,
for what reason, for what reason, He's bigger than that,
he should be bigger than that, he's better than that.
He should be better than that. Instead this, I got
to beat the shit out of you again and again
and again. You won take it and be gracious about
the win, and be the president for all Americans, not
just the people who you like, not just for the
people who voted for you. That's not our system. Then,
of course, bring in Gavin Newsom. Show that one. Governor
Gavin Neussom is trying to kill our nation's beautiful California.
For the first time ever, more people are leaving than
are coming in. He is using the term trump proof
as a way of stopping all of the great things
that can be done to make California great again. But
I just overwhelmingly won the election. People are being forced
to leave due to his and others insane policy decisions,
like the ridiculously re routing of millions of gallons of
water a day from the North out into the Pacific
Ocean rather than using it free of charge for the
town's cities and farms dotted all throughout California. They are
making it impossible to build a reasonably priced car, the
unchecked and unbalanced homeless catastrophe, and the cost of everything,
in particular groceries, is out of control. Also, as an
agent for the United States of America on voting and elections,
I will be demanding that voter ID and proof of
citizenship are a necessary part and component of the voting process. Again,
we're just sitting here and we're trying to figure out, Hey,
why why, Because what he's looking to do here is
to actually change maybe in four years, maybe in two
years during the midterms, he's going to try to change
and turn California read no problem. But really, at this
juncture in time, if in fact what you say is accurate,
people will end up looking for an alternative without at
this point in time attacking Gavin News, which you're only
doing right now because he was so vocal anti Trump
over the course of the last you know, eight nine
months when Biden was running, and then of course the
last three as Kamala was running. Now, next Trump decides
to speak about democratic funding. Not even sure where he's
going with this one, but he says, I'm very surprised
that the Democrats, who fought a hard and valiant fight
in the twenty twenty presidential election, raising a record amount
of money, didn't have lots of money left over. Now
they are being squeezed by vendors and others. Whatever we
can do to help them during this difficult period. I
would strongly recommend we, as a party and for the
sake of desperately needed unity, do we have a lot
of money left over in that our biggest asset in
the campaign was earned media and that doesn't cost very much.
Make America great again? Okay, if you really do intend
on helping the Democratic Party to pay off its bills.
First of all, I'm not really sure what they're talking about.
I do know from reports that there were certain vendors
that were claiming the Trunk campaign didn't pay. But if
in fact the Democratic that number one that would be
relatively new to me had not heard that. But if
the Republican Party is planning on chipping in in order
to fund the Democratic Party, it just seems somewhat odd, right,
I mean, it just doesn't seem very trumpy. And now
here are his thoughts about recess appointments as they will
be taking place. Put that up. Any Republican senator seeking
the coveted leadership position in the United States Senate must
agree to recess appointments in the Senate, without which we
will not be able to get people confirmed in a
timely manner. Sometimes the votes can take two years or more.
This is what they did four years ago, and we
cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled immediately. Additionally,
no judges should be approved during this period of time
because the Democrats are looking to ram through their judges
as the Republicans fight over leadership. This is not acceptable,
thank you. I want to be very clear about something.
It's something that Trump did. Trump did this, so again,
there's the way that works for him, there's a way
that works for Democrats, and the rest of us are
sort of just sitting here and shaking our heads and saying, well,
which way is it going to be a big concern
that Trump is talking about here is the potential stepping
down by Soda bayor right Justice Soda Mayo of the
Supreme Court, where Biden would put or nominate somebody to
put through. Trump doesn't want that. If Sodomyo steps down
for whatever the reason might be, of course, that would
be another That would be one man having the ability
to nominate four Supreme Court justices again, never ever, ever
having occurred in this country. And of course, lastly, in
the middle of his political discourse. Trump decides to put
in some comments about the group about the NFL. All right,
the NFL should get rid of the ridiculous new kickoff rule,
all right. Listen. What I think maybe he should do
is he should do an executive order on that too.
Not really sure where that came from, but I do
want to say this, Donald Trump happens to be a
fan of football. He's actually a fan of all sports,
specifically golf, but he's a major fan of basketball, but
more so even football. He's actually quite knowledgeable. I'm just
not sure at this juncture in time why that's even
something that's on his mind. But it's on his mind,
and so he posted. I'd rather him be posting stuff
like that than the attacks on Gavin Newsom and Nikki
Haley and Mike Pompeo and some of these other stuff,
you know, the recess appointments. Listen, I could understand, you know,
his anger towards what could possibly cause his administration to
not come in as quickly as possible. First of I'm
not even sure if they have all the positions already
filled with different people. I know that there's a big
scramble going on very similar to what happened in twenty sixteen. So,
my friends, like I said to you before, no point
in unsubscribing. In fact, this is the time that you
need to subscribe, because this is the place that you're
going to get the truth. This is the place going
to get reactions to what's going on by somebody who's
been there before. And I hope to see you again
soon and thanks for listening. Hey everyone, first of all,
thanks for watching. I mean, we're going to be posting
daily episodes with reactions and talking about politics. We'll be
talking about everything in fact, so please like and subscribe
