you get your podcast. One of the things that got me about this whole thing was people try to blame Trump for it. And I know this is controversial, but I don't blame Trump. I think in many ways Trump is similar to climate change in that I don't think you can pin any one storm directly on climate change, but you've got to admit that climate change has an effect on increasing the probability of these storms. I feel like Trump is the same thing. I don't think he's the cause of any of these things. But he does in some way raise the the the the the temtemter temperature the the the the the the temportemier temperature the temperature the temperature the temperature the temperature the temperature, the temperature, the temperature, thempernipe thempera thempera, thia, thi, thi, is thi,thing. I don't think he's the cause of any of these things, but he does in some way raise the temperature enough that we'll see more of these things

happening. What I have started realizing, and it's a scary thought, is that I disagree with people who say Donald Trump inspired the shooter in New Zealand. For me, I feel like Donald Trump is inspired by the same things as the shooter in New Zealand. They're products of the same white supremacy. They believe the same things. You know, Donald Trump and these people run around always saying, oh, he's not

a white supremacist. Yeah, but all white supremacists think he's a white supremacist. You know? I'm just saying, if Beyonce and Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin Justin just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just I'm a the the th. I'm a th. I'm I'm a th. I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm to to to to to to the sh know? I'm just saying, if Beyonce and Justin Timberlake think I'm a great dancer, then... I'm a great dancer. I mean, it's weird to say that I'm not. But he really is, he's a product of that. And that's scary because, you know, when you think that he's the figurehead, it makes it almost easy. If you just get rid of him, thua is gone. But I honestly believe that Donald Trump is a product of white supremacy. He's a product of that fear that has been instilled in many white

men in America and in and around the world who have been led to believe that they're constantly under assault and that they're being replaced and they're constantly under assault. And they're placed, you know, they're being replaced by black people, they're being told. It is like, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, th.. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. that, thi. that's, that's, that's, theei. thei. that's, thei. thi. thi. thi. thi whoever they're being told. But they, it is a, it is like a, it's a weird fear. It's weird, it's a weird feeling that they have. They believe they're losing even though they're winning. And it's hard for many of them to see because they are winning. But like, in America, people would always argue, yeah, but you look at how jobs, So what is his argument? Genuinely, what is his argument? You start to realize that it isn't only economic anxiety. There's a larger narrative that's being spread online to a lot of white men

in a very similar style that ISIS spreads its message, and that is that, hey, this is your true destiny, this is what's happening to you, you should be afraid, and this is how you can fight back. And I think Donald Trump is as inspired by that message as the shooter was. That's why he needs his Janine Piro's on TV to help him figure out how he feels about things. That's why I so stressed when they're not on there. I think so. Baby needs his biddy. The Daily Show with Cove Noa, Ears Edition.
