Starting point is 00:00:00 A year and a half ago, Donald Trump was facing prison, bankruptcy, shame forever. I mean, historic, absolute faceplants, which he deserved every single bit of that. The most frustrating thing about being an American is how much this man gets away with. How we say we are the country of the rule of law, we are the country of free will, we are the country of accountability. we're the country of individuality, of justice, of all of these things. And we elect this man, not we, not me. Y'all know who I'm talking about. So fast forward a year and a half. And this man has made billions of dollars in just 11 months, billions of dollars he's made. And he's going to have immunity because of John Roberts in his Supreme Court. He's never going to be held accountable for
Starting point is 00:00:57 any of the crimes that he is committing currently, in my opinion, all day, every day in the Oval office. And so if that's not enough, if you, if that doesn't sound morally depraved enough, you have to understand he's still grifting his base. This was, this blew my mind. Pop this up. So Trump's campaign, Brian Allen reports, this is predatory. Trump's campaign's emails are auto checking boxes to charge supporters and extra. $2,500 unless they notice and opt out. Fear language, fake urgency, dark pattern design. This isn't fundraising. It's exploiting loyal supporters who trust him not to rob them blind. Check your parents and grandparents' inboxes. This is how they get taken. And so it's like alert. Democrats are gaining
Starting point is 00:01:49 serious momentum, blah, blah, blah. And it says, you know, you have to check here to hold back, the woke mob, all of this stupid shit. And if you check that thing, then on December 31st, your credit card is going to get charged $2,500. And I want you to think about how much he's already taken from the taxpayer, how much he has taken an economy that the Wall Street Journal, this is the most conservative economic newspaper in the country, a week before the November 4th elections said whoever wins, they are being handed the strongest American economy in history. So whether that was Kamala or Donald Trump, he has taken that economy and ripped it up.
Starting point is 00:02:40 And he only, he has taken the federal government as a government that only services billionaires and not the electorate. Billionaires go to Mar-a-Lago, give him participation trophies because they know that he will service them in the same way that the government is supposed to service the electorate. he services billionaires. And on top of all of that, he thinks so little about his base that he is grifting $2,500 for them. And I haven't always had the money that I have now. I have been dead ass broke in my life with two little boys, a husband that had a drug problem. It would, things were really dire. $2,500 on a credit card when I was at my worst financially,
Starting point is 00:03:25 emotionally, psychologically, like really not in the best place, would have completely leveled my entire world. And this is what he's doing to so many working class Americans. I completely agree with you. I've been in that spot where $2,500 is life-changing. And I look at all the reports that I have read that because of the failures of the Trump administration and tariffs, people are buying everything on credit, meaning their grocery bills, their rent, their gas, food. They cannot survive. And now he is going to add $2,500 onto these people. When the next time they go, their credit card may be maxed out. They can't buy food. It's so unbelievable because I look at it and I think, is there ever enough? This man can never be filled up. He sold away the American
Starting point is 00:04:22 democracy. He's taken in a plane. He's done everything for himself. But the American person that does this, that's on this email list, I go through a long list in my head, cryptocurrency, meme coin, truth social, all of that. They've lost their asses and they keep coming back for more. Yet I still have empathy for them because I've been the person that had to scrape together to buy groceries. And this is just, this should be criminal in my opinion. Absolutely. I think, it should be criminal, but who are these people going to report this to? Cash Patel? Yeah, Pam Bondi. Yeah, are they going to be like, oh, shit, the president of the United States is grifting and ripping off his supporters. This is predatory fundraising here. Are they going to do anything about it? And that's the
Starting point is 00:05:09 problem. Like, I have a son right now that's in law school, and I keep reading about what's happening at DOJ and reading about what's happening at the Supreme Court. And for all of these decades, the courts were there to uphold the law. And now we have a Supreme Court that is taking the law, moving it completely out of the way so that the president can do what he wants to with impunity. And it's just unbelievable experiencing this in real time. Like I wish that we were 20, 30 years ahead. We were reading about, well, that was some fucked up time in America back then, but we're in the middle of it. And this man has such disdain for. for working class people.
Starting point is 00:05:54 He doesn't relate to them. He doesn't understand what the word grocery is. He doesn't understand what it's like to struggle, what it's like to hustle, what it's like to be broke. And so he has his interior design projects. And what's interesting is a lot of dictators, it's like it's a script that they all follow. There's a personality type. So this isn't new.
Starting point is 00:06:17 This is just new for America. If you look at Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi and other. dictators, they all lean into this Marie Antoinette era. And Donald Trump, he fancies himself a man of the arts. And so he has changed the name of the Kennedy Center to the Trump Kennedy Center. And that in and of itself, if Obama did that, could you imagine if Kamala Harris won, we were 11 months into Kamala Harris's presidency, if she changed the name of the Kennedy Center, the Kamala Harris Kennedy Center performing arts. Could you imagine Fox News would hyperventilate so bad?
Starting point is 00:06:56 I think it might just kill Jesse Waters. Right. Imagine if Kamala tore down the East Wing. It's just, it's unbelievable. But anyway, so now he has proposed marble armrest on true social, potential marble armrest for the seating at the Trump Kennedy Center, unlike anything ever done or seen before. you guys when i'm not a podcaster i'm an interior designer and i'll tell you why this has never been done before marble is a cold porous stone and so when you are resting your arm on something
Starting point is 00:07:31 wood is a better uh surface for that this has never been done before because that's not how marble is used this is a crackhead who will never be able to hit the crack pipe enough And he is going to Marie Antoinette his way through everything that he can and Stephen Miller and others are thrilled that he is so preoccupied with these projects because then they're able to get with Russell Vote, who Trump's own chief of staff, Susie Wiles says was an extreme Bible thumper right winger. Even she thinks he's a nut. And collude with Stephen Miller, to consolidate power. But I think something interesting could happen here.
Starting point is 00:08:22 You see Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greens, and you see the Civil War erupting in MAGA, a lot of them are realizing, okay, we're going to have to break from him. Otherwise, he's just going to, they're going to install a permanent succession trail. And we're never going to be able to get power ourselves. Like, I don't think their ambitions are like for the country or for equality or anything like that. They want to make sure they have their fair shot to go in and Marie Antoinette if they want to. I look at this and I think this is absolutely the most pathetic, the most pathetic thing you could ever do. Number one, he thinks he has good taste. He does not. You look at the cabinet
Starting point is 00:09:06 meetings where they're just glazing on him for three hours. I saw a clip of the White House And it's so gross. And for him to take a monument to an assassinated president that was supposed to be a living embodiment and dedication to him and put his name on it because he is so shallow. And then to change everything, to put his stamp of approval on it, because he feels so insecure and has such low self-esteem, everybody has to be in his wake. I mean, it's, I'm surprised, but I'm not surprised. he had a gold toilet in the 70s, you know, so the fact that he's fucking everything up
Starting point is 00:09:44 doesn't surprise me. The absolute, as the leader of the free world, the absolute need to put so much emphasis on him because he feels so poorly about himself, that is something fascinating to me. Okay. And so there is a backlash to this and cancel culture can be annoying, but right now we need to bring cancel culture back. It needs to come back and we need to cancel the shit out of these fascist, emotionally stunted webes that are cosplaying and ruining our country. And so pop this up, Kylie. Issa Rae has canceled her sold-out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rihanna Giddens, Peter Wolfe, low-cut Connie, and gay men's chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Lynn Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton. This is the way forward. And let me explain this to you. These dweeps, these emotionally stunted dweeps that are pushing this fascist form of government. These are book banners. These are people that are anti-woman, anti-gay, anti-any form of diversity. And when you get into that sort of fascism, arts and culture die. And the reason that we have had such rich culture, rich films, rich music, rich theater in the United States of America is because it's been operated under freedom, freedom of expression.
Starting point is 00:11:24 You know how all of these MAGA people are so anti-D-EI? It's because you think all these crackers, you think Stephen Miller and. J.D. Vance could produce anything like this? No. But Trump is a New Yorker, and he grew up around culture, so he wants to be involved in culture. But he just happens to be tethered to all of these anti-culture racist, fascist, because he himself is also a racist fascist. But they want a cherry pick. Like, oh, we want arts and culture because everything's a short-sighted, impulsive decision they never see like holistically what makes art what makes culture freedom freedom of expression well these people oppose that these people oppose the first amendment they are trying to
Starting point is 00:12:20 make it a crime right now if you film somebody getting arrested by ice these people are creative killers these people are democratic killers but most importantly these These people are cold-blooded killers. They don't care if people are moved to warehouses, aka concentration camps and killed. They don't care if people are sent to Seacot and tortured sexually and other ways. They don't give a shit about it because they will get somebody at CBS News or somebody at Fox News to sanewash it and both sides it. The fact that they, that this story about the Kennedy Center, to me, is kind of at the epicenter of what Trump is doing. He's killing every part of American culture.
Starting point is 00:13:10 So good on all of these people that have canceled their appearances. Bring cancel culture back. It is a full way to completely throw up resistance to this fascism because all these triple Trumpers out there, they enjoy arts. They might say, I don't like art. You fucking like art. You watch TV. You watch movies. You're watching art. You dip shit. And so you listen to music, it's art. And so this is a really, really big thing that they're starting to cancel because the more and more people that cancel him, what are they going to do at that point? The more and more people that openly say, I'm anti-fascist, where are they going to do arrest 275 million Americans that say they're anti-fascist? What is he going to do, cancel, you know,
Starting point is 00:13:56 try to cancel Hamilton and all of these other people? I think that there is power in numbers and there is power in all of us canceling them. No, I completely agree and good on these people, but you know what's so funny is the hubris of these people to go on and on about, you know, bad bunny, he doesn't speak English, she's not American, all that stuff, but yet they expect for these people that they have been so ugly about minorities, gay people, women, they're so ugly about it. But then they are like, you need to perform for me. I'm having a show. I need you to perform.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Well, isn't that the way that Americans treat African Americans and have for decades? Absolutely. Look, no further than sports. I mean, that's the way, I mean, the thing about what's happening right now with Trump is white people are getting a taste of what it's been like to be a black American for decades. And so many people like, for example, the Dallas Cowboy owner, I went and watch you bring that up all the time, the daughter of Jerry Jones that went on Katie. Miller's podcast and defended bad bunny. Fuck her. Fuck that bitch. How dare her? How dare that bitch when her dad is the biggest racist piece of shit owner of all these black men that have to entertain all of these racist people in Texas? How dare that woman go on Katie Miller's podcast when she is a billionaire because of the hard work and athletic excellence of all of these
Starting point is 00:15:25 African Americans? And then she's a participant of the way they all treated. Colin Kaepernick. She's a participant of the way the league allowed for all of these black men to take a moment of silence to Charlie Kirk, who said if he walked on an airplane and there was a black pilot, he would question that pilot skills and hope that the plane landed. So women like her, Charlotte Jones, that want to play both sides, that's the problem. That's the most insidious part of white America. We want to applaud her. Oh my God, Charlotte, great. Why the fuck are you going on Katie Miller's podcast? You need to stand with your employees. A lot of these black men came out of neighborhoods against all odds. They became who they were despite white people.
Starting point is 00:16:22 white Charlotte Jones is who she is because of black athletes and that's the difference and we have to go deeper with this race issue because it is just appalling to me how black people are treated in this country are still continued to be treated in this country and how much white people expect black people to entertain them and they don't have their backs the owner the daughter of the owner of the Dallas Cowboys did not have her athletes back when she went on Katie Miller's podcast. Seriously, that should be disqualifying. How despicable is that woman? I just couldn't I went and watched it and I just about fell over at the whole thing. So disgusting to me. And then I just want to leave you with he's doing all of these things. Donald Trump is doing all of these things
Starting point is 00:17:17 with historically low approval ratings. And I just want to remind you the only thing that you can do if you're a member of this administration, the only thing you can do is get on television and gaslight and lie. And here is Stephen Miller, husband of the aforementioned Katie Miller, who hosts other white billionaires on her podcast, who have this whole attitude. People of color are here to entertain us rich white folk. But these people, Katie Miller gets so upset if she's called a white nationalist. She doesn't say, I believe in equality.
Starting point is 00:17:55 I'm not a white nationalist. She never says that. It is just she is offended at absolutely everything and ashamed of nothing. And that is the mantra of this administration. Ashamed of nothing, offended at everything. So here comes Stephen Miller, gaslighting and lying on Fox News. Well, I think the most important point of all, and the polling shows overwhelming support for President Trump across every single issue and dimension.
Starting point is 00:18:23 But the most important point to hammer over and over again, under Trump won, no inflation. Biden comes in. Right. Devastates. Okay. This is, I can't even continue with it because it's 1,000 percent. Everything he says is a lot. Why, Trump is underwater, historically underwater.
Starting point is 00:18:47 There has not been a president in the last 50 years that is pulling as low at the end of the first year of their presidency as low as this man is. He is underwater on his premier point, which is immigration. He is double digit underwater on immigration. You know why? Because they misread the electorate. Stephen Miller misread the electorate. All of these sociopaths sit around and go, oh, this is so fun watching all.
Starting point is 00:19:13 all of these Hispanic people getting tortured and chained up and the mom's crying and the dad's crying and kids crying. This is a blast. Well, it turns out that, yeah, some of the base are totally into that, but it turns out that a lot of Americans that were souped up on this whole border issue, when they see it happening, they don't like it. There's a sense of overarching humanity that overtakes them. So all they do is lie. All Fox News does is lie. And the racists that like to get a permission structure for how horrible they feel about themselves on the inside. They go and they rush to Fox News and they hear this and it's like a balming salve for their racism. And it gives them a permission structure to continue down this road.
Starting point is 00:19:58 Because in my opinion right now, if you triple Trump and I saw some polling that like 79% of Republicans still approve of Donald Trump, 79%. you cannot acknowledge one thing wrong that he does without it impacting how you feel about yourself. So they're checkmated, these people. So they have just tripled down and quadrupled down on this moral depravity. Of course, they arrived at this vote with some to begin with. But they're so far in it right now, the Republican Party is a lying, death cult, racist, fascist, anti-democratic, anti-constitution, pro-crime party. And the Democrats need to message that from the morning, lunch, dinner, get on TV at night, do every podcast you can. This party has been exposed for the fraudulent piece of shit that it is. And they prove it every single day.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Yeah, I look at Fox News when he says, you know, the Republicans have always had such a hard time in the media. That's the biggest bunch of horseshit. But I did see a clip over. the break of Fox News and one of the commentators said, you know, the reason the polling about Trump is down is he is a victim of his own success. That's the kind of shit they're shoveling. If they acknowledge the polls are bad, he's a victim of his own success. And Stephen Miller's downright hysterical every time he goes on Fox News every time. All right, that's all we have. Please like, subscribe. We'll be back later with more news. Thank you.
