Liberal Panel TURNS Against California Democrats After HUMILIATING Trump Deranged CNN Debate!

[0:00] On the question itself, do you also support prosecuting the leadership of ICE? [0:06] I think we should police Donald Trump's masked mercenary force that they call ICE. [0:11] I think we should prosecute any of the forces that violate the law. [0:15] And I think we should jail anyone who has violated the law. [0:18] That goes all the way to the top. [0:20] I agree. [0:21] If anyone has violated the laws of California, they should serve time. [0:25] And I'm telling you, no one has. [0:27] You know, there are two people who are dead in Minneapolis because they were simply doing their civic duty and being able to act under the Constitution. [0:34] Your civic duty is bringing a gun and fighting with cops? [0:37] Your civic duty is to try and run over cops? [0:40] Come on. [0:41] You've already been caught. [0:42] A lot of those keepers brought guns to the Capitol, Mr. Bianco. [0:46] Let's just be honest. [0:47] Sheriff Bianco, the governor will have to stand up to Donald Trump. [0:50] Can I tell you, after working in Joe Biden's administration, I do not trust, have you ever set up to do that? [0:58] Can I just say? [0:59] Whoa, whoa. [1:00] I don't. [1:00] I don't trust that he would be able to do that. [1:02] And that is the feeling. [1:04] You don't trust that he'll be able to stand up to Trump? [1:06] I don't think that he will be able to stand up to Trump and lead. [1:08] And the reason why. [1:09] Before she answers that, can I ask you why? [1:17] Because when I saw him in the administration, and I think a lot of people did, and it's, people understand this, it's he was not effective in governmenting. [1:25] And I think that a lot of people in the Biden administration are talking about this because they realize that he was not an effective HHS secretary. [1:33] And if you ask any cabinet secretary, they would tell you the same thing. [1:36] And so I think that there is a, I think people recognize this. [1:41] And I think this is why Tom Steyer has gone to the top. [1:44] Do Biden and Harris think that? [1:46] I think there have been, I have not spoken with them about it. [1:49] I'll tell you that this is not the first time that I've heard that, right? [1:53] Yeah. [1:53] So what Sochi's talking about is a real thing. [1:55] Yeah. [1:55] Boy, boy, boy, boy, boy, boy. [1:57] So we got to talk about the CNN debate involving the candidates currently running for governor of California. [2:05] And the field is full of Democrats who are radically far left. [2:10] And they put that on display for the country to see. [2:13] And they're currently getting roasted, okay? [2:16] The performance that they put on was absolutely humiliating, right? [2:20] But it's something that the world needs to see, that the country needs to see, [2:24] because it's a representation of where the Democrat Party currently is. [2:28] And I want to go ahead and play a highlight clip here of the debate so you guys can see [2:33] what went down. [2:35] Nobody should be surprised that most of the debate, at least when it comes to Democrats, [2:40] was F-Trump, pro-illegal immigrants, pro-socialism, right? [2:46] Hate the rich, hate billionaires. [2:48] You know, that is what they offered the American people doing this debate. [2:54] And they're getting roasted for it. [2:56] So I want to talk about it. [2:57] And while further ado, let's go ahead and roll these clips. [3:00] I have said that billionaires like me should pay more taxes and the big corporations should [3:05] pay more taxes. [3:06] Excuse me, you literally said- [3:07] And that's why if this proposition is on the ballot in November, I'll vote for it. [3:12] But going forward, we do need to go further. [3:14] This is a one-time tax. [3:16] And it also doesn't spread the money across the government the way everything else does. [3:22] And specifically, it doesn't go to education and teachers and students, which is a critical [3:28] need in the state of California. [3:30] The tax I'm proposing to close a corporate real estate tax loophole is more money and it's [3:35] spread through. [3:35] It's the job of the California governor to protect every single Californian. [3:40] The sanctuary state policy is designed to make sure that our state resources, the taxpayer [3:46] dollars, the public servants that we have are focusing on doing their jobs, which is [3:52] not cooperating with the federal immigration authorities. [3:56] These are Californians. [3:57] They contribute to our economy. [3:59] They pay taxes. [3:59] And they're one of the only ways that our state has been growing in recent years. [4:03] But I was just in the fashion district on the side of downtown Los Angeles, where I met [4:11] with small business owners who have tears in their eyes because they don't have customers [4:15] anymore, because Donald Trump's cruel and indiscriminate enforcement based on the color [4:21] of people's skins, the language they're speaking, it has terrorized the community. [4:26] It's targeting the Latino community. [4:28] It is disproportionately impacting our immigrant neighbors. [4:31] Thank you, Mayor Mahan. [4:32] Congresswoman Porter, what's your view? [4:33] What's your response? [4:34] Donald Trump sucks. [4:35] Congresswoman Porter, you recently put out an email, a fundraising email with the subject [4:40] line, F Trump, and you're not censoring it like I am right now. [4:45] And you went on to say, quote, that's right, F Trump. [4:48] Together we're going to kick Trump's ass in November. [4:52] Will F Trump be your guiding principle in dealing with the president? [4:56] When Donald Trump hurts California as he has again and again, then I will absolutely stand [5:04] up to him 100 percent. [5:06] He has denied wildfire funding to help disaster victims here in California. [5:12] He has made it clear that he is seeking to specifically punish California in canceling green energy [5:18] projects here that create good, high paying jobs while he's allowing them to continue in other states. [5:25] We absolutely have to be clear about the risk that Donald Trump presents to Californians and to our economy and to our ability to change California for the better. [5:35] So if he's going to attack California, yeah, F him. [5:38] Look, I think what you just saw there is actually what's going wrong with our politics in California, [5:44] which is all these big things that affect us on a daily basis. [5:49] These are decisions made here in California by our politicians. [5:53] And we've had the same people in charge for 16 years now. [5:57] And because it's such a disaster and such a high cost of living for everyone and the highest poverty rate in the country and the highest unemployment rate in the country and the worst business, all these things going wrong, they can't do anything except blame Trump. [6:14] But Congresswoman Porter, your thoughts on the idea of funding health care for undocumented immigrants statewide? [6:20] Yes. My view is that it's a bit rich for Javier to talk about following the law when he is mired personally in a corruption scandal where his former chief of staff, Sean McCluskey, [6:33] when Javier was appointed by Joe Biden to be health secretary, he wanted his chief of staff to go with him. [6:41] The salary wasn't enough. So what did they do? [6:44] They took money from Javier's campaign account to top up his salary by funneling it to Dana Williamson, Gavin Newsom's former chief of staff, so that it was paid to this guy's wife. [6:56] All of that is illegal. It is against state law. It's against federal law. [7:01] My running mate for attorney general, Michael Gates, has this evening written to Javier Becerra to make it clear that when he is attorney general, Javier will be investigated. [7:11] Thank you. And if necessary, prosecuted for these crimes. [7:13] I want to talk about California Governor Gavin Newsom, who's about to leave office after eight consequential and at times controversial years. [7:22] To all of you, what is one word you would use to describe Governor Newsom's performance as governor? [7:31] We will go down the line, starting with you, Mayor Villaraigosa. [7:36] One word to describe Governor Newsom's performance as governor. [7:39] Performative, bold, progressive, failed, Steve, failure, you can't take my word, game changing, incomplete. [7:57] Wow. Wow. Absolutely embarrassing. Absolutely embarrassing for Democrats. [8:03] So embarrassing that even CNN, the CNN panel is roasting these Democrats. [8:08] Now, keep in mind, this is the best that Democrats have to offer, right? [8:11] California is a shining example of what you get with Democrat governance, right? [8:17] And the best that they have to offer is Xavier Becerra, Katie Porter, Tom Steyer, right? [8:29] And others who are, you know, again, not very good, right? [8:34] I mean, I'm just saying they're not offering much. [8:36] They don't have much talent. [8:37] You would think that California would be able to produce better talent than what they got on stage. [8:42] And this is why they're currently struggling, okay? [8:46] And it's bad. It's really bad. [8:48] When CNN, even the CNN panel is like, yeah, these Democrats kind of suck. [8:53] So all further ado, let's go ahead and get into this. [8:55] Of Swalwell getting out, I don't think he helped himself tonight. [8:59] You know, there were a couple of dynamics. [9:01] I mean, there's the Trump of it all, which we'll definitely get to. [9:04] But for the Democrats, the five of them on the stage, [9:07] I do think that in a state like California, you've got a lot of progressives. [9:11] They're very liberal. [9:11] But there's definitely a sense that they know people want some change. [9:15] They know that Californians think things are not going so swimmingly in the state. [9:21] Something's got to get. [9:22] Yeah, absolutely. [9:23] Prices are high there. [9:24] You know, they each had to say something about the previous governor. [9:28] You also have a situation where I think a lot of Democrats don't feel like this is the ideal ticket. [9:34] You don't have people on the stage that people are in love with. [9:38] Eric Swalwell dropped out of the race because he had sexual assault allegations against him. [9:44] There are some major changes that need to happen within the Democratic Party. [9:48] It's a moment of reckoning for the Democratic Party in California. [9:51] But I do think that overall issues like the cost of living, affordability, health care, [9:55] all of these things are still things that people care about in California. [10:00] And there needs to be major change. [10:01] And it's not just policies because of the president and the war. [10:05] It is policies because the governor and the governor will be on likely be on the presidential ballot in 2028. [10:11] And so this is also referendum on him, Rob. [10:16] It's so bad that the former spokesperson for the DNC, a Democrat operative, they're turning on these Democrats. [10:27] They're actually spitting some truth here, right? [10:32] Hey, you can't keep blaming Trump for all of the problems in these blue states, right? [10:38] In places like California, it's like, no, no, no. [10:41] It was unaffordable before Trump, right? [10:43] It was in bad shape before Trump. [10:46] And it remains in bad shape because of the leadership within that state, not necessarily because of Trump. [10:51] And that is something that is finally being acknowledged on national television, which is that when Democrats talk about, quote unquote, affordability, I'm not sure how anybody can believe them, considering how they're the reason why the country is unaffordable right now. [11:07] But if you look at their states, their states have been unaffordable for a long time. [11:11] They have the most unaffordable states in the union. [11:12] I think you're right, Zodji, about that's a California good Democrats do have to stare it in the face of what has been happening inside the California Democratic Party that's led to the affordability challenges. [11:23] Democrats all across the country this year have decided to try to make the election about affordability. [11:28] But the most Democratic state in the country is the most unaffordable state. [11:32] That's why 1.23 million people have moved out of the state and moved into places like Nashville and Texas. [11:36] And so, you know, I only heard Matt Mahan tonight talk about affordability in a real pragmatic way of what he could do about it. [11:43] He talked about eliminating the CEQA process, which is an environmental review process that makes infrastructure construction impossible. [11:50] He talked a little bit about the tax problem, about how California is one of the highest tax states. [11:54] I was I thought Katie Porter might have had a lane to do that tonight, but I didn't see it from her. [11:59] Well, let me play what she said about the billionaire tax. [12:02] It's been so controversial in California. [12:04] Listen, this tax isn't going to. [12:10] It's fundamentally changed California's economy in the way that young people and the working people of California need. [12:17] It's a one time tax, but we don't have one time revenue needs. [12:22] It taxes billionaires as if half billionaires don't have two nickels to rub together and couldn't chip in a little bit more. [12:30] So, yes, I'm against the billionaires tax because it doesn't go far enough. [12:34] Right. It doesn't tax the rich enough. [12:37] Right. Amazing. Incredible. [12:39] To a progressive tax code. Yes, to the wealthy paying more. [12:45] But this tax is about cheap political points. [12:48] It is not about really fundamentally changing California's economy for the better. [12:53] That's going to take real political courage. [12:55] Billionaires like me should pay more taxes and the big corporations should pay more taxes. [12:59] Excuse me. You literally said if this proposition is on the ballot in November, I'll vote for it. [13:04] But going forward, we do need to go further. [13:07] Yeah, you can send your check to the California government anytime you want. [13:13] Right. If you want to pay your fair share, go ahead and send Gavin Newsom and the Democrats that check for them to did waste on fraud. [13:22] Right. Go ahead and send the federal government your check. [13:25] If you feel like billionaires need to pay more, you can volunteer to start doing that right now. [13:30] Right. I'm just saying. [13:31] This is a one-time tax. [13:33] And it also doesn't spread the money across the government the way everything else goes. [13:39] You know, that was one of those times where you're kind of trying to jump on Tom Steyer, but he actually did pretty well for himself. [13:47] Well, if you support the billionaire tax, which actually maybe many Californians do. [13:53] I think Katie Porter is betting that some Californians, you know, they want a progressive tax system, but they think that this is like a two by four hitting their, you know, sort of taxpaying population over the head. [14:05] I live in Miami and I can tell you almost every week right now, there is some California billionaire who comes out as having broken a real estate record for buying a house in Miami that costs $200 million because they are all fleeing the state before a certain deadline, a year deadline and establishing homesteads in Florida. [14:24] So that's not helping the California economy. [14:27] There are so many industries that have left California. [14:30] The movie industry, which is so symbolic of California, most of the productions are right now happening overseas or in other states like New Mexico. [14:39] It's happening in Canada. [14:40] It's cheaper to fly people and film a movie in Scotland than it is to do so in California. [14:46] So they are having very big issues. [14:49] I think out of all of those people on the stage, somebody needed to stand out. [14:54] That did not happen. [14:54] And I cannot believe I sat through two hours of them bickering instead of drinking margaritas at La Palapa tonight on Cinco de Mayo. [15:02] How many drinks? [15:03] I do think, you know, that... [15:05] Sorry, we couldn't provide the margaritas. [15:06] These things are not mutually exclusive. [15:09] We definitely should have had some margaritas. [15:12] No, but it's spicy. [15:14] Listen, Tom Steyer is a progressive. [15:16] And even though he's taken all the money from the coal companies, as Katie Porter keeps saying, he's, you know, now an environmentalist and all of that. [15:24] So I guess you like him. [15:25] I have a hard time thinking that a state that is 40% Latino, that is pissed off at billionaires, that thinks they're not paying their fair share, is going to vote for Tom Steyer. [15:38] It's obvious to me that Javier Becerra has inherited the Swalwell vote, that he's on the ascent, and that's why he was being hit on like a piñata, to go back to my Cinco de Mayo theme tonight by everybody. [15:51] Let's talk about the two Republicans who are on the stage. [15:55] Steve Hilton, a recent California transplant from the U.K., and Chad Bianco, who's a sheriff. [16:05] Let me just show you the polls, because I think that to understand where we are here, Steve Hilton is sort of nominally at the top of this pack, to put it mildly. [16:15] But this is all within the margin of error. [16:17] We don't really know where this is going right now. [16:21] But Hilton has the Trump endorsement. [16:24] Yeah. [16:24] He was asked about whether or not he would support mass deportations. [16:30] Didn't want to say. [16:31] So how do you leverage a Trump endorsement to a victory in a state like California, where Trump is so unpopular? [16:39] Yeah, it's a difficult puzzle to solve. [16:42] Although, I have to say for Hilton, I didn't know much about him before I started following this campaign. [16:48] I interviewed him yesterday on my radio show. [16:50] He's quite articulate about asking the right questions, which is this. [16:53] If the state has failed, if the education system has failed, if it's an affordability crisis, if we're only one of five states where people are actually leaving instead of going into, if you have all these problems, is it a good idea to have one party rule for so long? [17:10] And Hilton, I think, has articulated that. [17:12] I asked him yesterday, you know, is it possible for a Republican to get elected governor of California? [17:16] You know, he has a way to lay out the math that shows, yes, you could attract independents and even some disaffected Democrats who are sort of fed up with the fact that they live in a state that's beautiful and has all these things going for it, but has been so mismanaged that people hate living here so much that they're fleeing to Miami and other places. [17:33] And, you know, watching this debate tonight, watching Democrats argue with each other about how to raise more taxes, how to further ruin health care, how to let in more illegal immigrants, it makes you believe that someone like Steve Hilton, if you just articulate the right question, sometimes that can get you pretty far in the campaign. [17:49] Oh, come on, Scott. The only way I agree. [17:50] Yeah, I agree with Scott Jennings, right, on this. [17:54] OK, that's how bad it is. [17:56] It's a dumpster fire in California. [17:58] As a Republican, you don't even need to be great. [18:00] You just need to be like, hey, look, you've been voting for the same thing over and over and over and over again. [18:06] This is the result. Are you going to continue to do this? [18:08] Right. Is this really direction that you will move in? [18:10] It's the same thing with the L.A. mayor's race. [18:13] Right. With Spencer Pratt. [18:15] He don't need Trump. [18:16] Right. To be honest with you, he don't really need Trump because the Democrat record. [18:22] Right. It being so bad. [18:24] It opens up the door for outsiders. [18:28] Right. To come in and to pitch change. [18:31] Right. And to do so in a way that clearly is effective and gives Republicans a chance to win. [18:37] Right. At this point, Democrats are so bad that it is reasonable to say, you know, a Republican doesn't have to be perfect. [18:45] But damn, like these Democrats are so bad that, you know, the best thing is just to have anybody. [18:52] Right. Anybody. We just take anybody that's not a Democrat. [18:55] Right. Anybody that does not have a D by their name. [18:57] Right. There's not a far leftist that represents going in the other direction. [19:01] That is what we're going to get on board with. [19:03] And that's what they should get on board with. [19:05] Right. And I think that's what you're seeing out in L.A. [19:07] I don't know if Spencer Pratt is actually going to win, but he's gaining a lot more momentum. [19:11] You have Steve Hilton still leading. [19:14] Is he perfect? No, he's not perfect. [19:16] But Chad Bianco, Sheriff Bianco, he's also competitive as well, too. [19:22] All of this stuff is within a marginal error. [19:25] Realistically, we could have the Republicans finishing as the top two candidates. [19:29] We really don't know at this point. Right. [19:31] We really don't know. But the fact that this is even a debate. [19:34] Right. The fact that Democrats even in this position right now. [19:36] So it should really, really, really tell you how down bad the party currently is. [19:44] Right. How they don't have real support. [19:47] The only thing that is holding this party together is Trump derangement. [19:51] That's it. Trump derangement. [19:53] And that's also part of the reason why they're leaning into socialism so hard is because that's the only thing they got to sail. [19:59] Right. Trump derangement and socialism. [20:01] That's the key for Democrats to win primaries. [20:04] And I to me think I think that's a sign of desperation, not a sign of strength. [20:09] And this is what you're saying. Right. [20:11] These Democrats are weak. All of them are weak. [20:14] And that's why the race is so close. [20:16] So Democrats, you know, moving forward to the future, a post-Trump future, they have a lot to be concerned about because, again, there are not many people in this country to actually support Democrats. [20:27] They may vote Democrat, but it's not because they support Democrats. [20:30] It's because they hate Trump. [20:31] And that eventually has become a big problem for Democrats. [20:34] When Trump is out of office, going to be hard to campaign against Trump when he's not in office. [20:39] They'll find a way to do it. Right. [20:41] They'll find a way to still blame Trump for all their problems, but it's just not going to land as hard. [20:45] I mean, right now, it ain't really landing that hard in California as you can see the CDN panel. [20:50] It's not even landing with the propagandists. Right. [20:53] So, you know, Democrats got to get it together. [20:57] They're going to have to get it together soon. [20:59] But right now, what you're saying is a very, very, very weak party. [21:02] So let me know what you guys think. [21:03] Make sure you like, comment and subscribe. [21:05] Most importantly, share a black conservative perspective. [21:07] Peace.
