[0:00] president trump dropping a profanity-laced nuke on the dems newly minted radical in michigan
[0:05] dr abdul when i watch abdul he's full of if you remember during my state of the union speech from
[0:16] a little while ago i made a very strong statement i said that america will never be a socialist
[0:24] country what i didn't say is what they're trying to do not they want to skip socialism they want
[0:31] to go right down to the bottom of the barrel that's communism they want it to be a communist
[0:35] country we're not letting them have it as a communist country not even for a minute meanwhile
[0:41] dr abdul's in the lab experimenting with a brand new political formula to convince everyone he's
[0:47] not a socialist look at the background it says no tax on tips the man can't stay on focus that's like
[0:54] the one thing that he did to offer any economic relief but instead of that he's more focused on
[1:01] me the question that people are asking is not where do you stand on the left-right spectrum on
[1:05] a series of issues that people talk about on cnn i'm not a socialist but i am a scientist
[1:09] and so i like empirically driven answers to hard problems i like to solve them
[1:14] but the old guard isn't ready to surrender the new york times reporting that moderate dems are
[1:19] beating the war drums and prepping for a fight with the socialist faction of the party however there's
[1:25] no salty grapes for abdul's former opponent haley stevens embracing the phony physician at a unity
[1:31] breakfast this morning all right harold ford jr uh you i don't think you've commented on this race
[1:37] yet how's it going um if i were up 12 to 15 points like the doctor was uh several days ago at least
[1:46] the public and some private polling suggests the person is good to be back with everybody i've missed
[1:50] everybody and i won by less than a point or even if i won by 12 to 15 points um you have to have a
[1:58] humility you have to have a willingness to not ask people to unite around you but to unite around the
[2:06] ideas and the things that you care about the things that you want to do on behalf of people um give him
[2:12] give him a couple of days he didn't show that two nights ago the last couple nights i was happy to
[2:16] see the congresswoman extend the grace that she has two uh i would say to him and the president trump
[2:23] to dr sayed the the who i don't know the blaming of trump for everything and trumpism i get it try to
[2:34] unite the party around that that's not what's going to win this election i would say to president
[2:38] trump that calling a socialist and communist and for that matter um using profanity that won't be enough
[2:47] this will be a contest of ideas i think i think a little different than some who my democrat friends
[2:52] would think this could very well be a wave election it just might be but it won't be a wave unless we
[2:56] focus on issues i think that voters are going to surprise people all across the country by rewarding
[3:03] the candidate who puts forward the best set of ideas to address the priorities and failings and
[3:10] concerns in their own lives that's the one gratifying thing the one positive takeaway i have from all of
[3:16] this jesse it's hard for me to put wrap my arms around how you could be for no police no borders
[3:22] no prison supporting hamas no president no senate and say somehow another you're for america put aside
[3:28] democrat or republican how you can say you're for america i don't think those ideas are going to be the
[3:32] ones that prevail in the fall and i also don't believe that the president is going to be able to get
[3:37] away with the profanity nor will democrats people get away with a socialist communist lean you're going to
[3:44] have to offer answers and whomever does that best democrat or republican they will win and now
[3:50] democrats are fighting a two-front war they're spending 15 mil to fight the far left and they're
[3:54] fighting trump yeah that's right and i agree with pretty much every what everything you said i think
[4:00] that's really smart political analysis i mean if it was enough just to attack trump our friend with the
[4:04] great hair shri tanadar would be in fact still serving in congress he lost the nomination yesterday he was
[4:11] the one who kept impeaching trump impeaching trump that wasn't enough you had to be a socialist he
[4:15] was outflanked on the left by a progressive dsa member um harold's right you need to have a little
[4:21] humility in politics and i have not seen that from el-sayed i watched a 21 minute rather boring
[4:26] interview i would note on cnn and i saw a lot of hubris in there i saw hubris when he was asked point
[4:31] blank do you denounce hassan piker the guy who says america deserves 9-11 the guy you were at a pool party at
[4:37] the day before your election uh the guy who dismissed crimes against israeli jews on october
[4:42] 7th against children against infants he would not do that he instead pivoted wouldn't denounce hassan
[4:48] piker really low moment but the hubris is one thing that i would really focus on with him
[4:53] politico had a write-up when they thought this was even we didn't know if he'd win or lose
[4:57] they said the day of the election he flashed his whoop fitness bracelet and said look at this guys
[5:01] and it said stress level was low he thought he was going to run away with this election he was waxing
[5:06] poetic about 2028 and being a power broker there this is a man who was bragging that he's getting
[5:11] more sleep than the reporters he thought he was waltzing into this it didn't happen that being said
[5:16] he's very clever he's very crafty he's a snake he knows how to disguise socialism but what he doesn't
[5:21] have is what mom donny has and that interview that martha mccallum did with zora mom donny was very
[5:26] good you saw zora mom donny be charming you saw him uh package socialism in the same way this man can
[5:32] but he has a humility and this man has a hubris and ultimately that's his downfall along with last
[5:37] point he won zero of 15 counties in michigan with the least amount of college degrees he won 13
[5:43] of 15 with the greatest college degrees and what that tells me is the smartest people in our country
[5:49] are the people with no college degrees and the michigan primary and the democratic party because
[5:53] they saw straight through this so-called non-socialist socialist well maybe it's because he's a
[5:57] scientist greg and uh and people don't like scientists they know too much he's a scientist
[6:03] he's a scientist jill biden is a doctor look uh america is not going to be america is not going to
[6:08] become a socialist country but the democrat party could be a socialist party this is the problem with
[6:14] the dams first i want to talk about the dams then i want to talk about the rest of us the dams have
[6:19] suffered from years of cowardice they've refused to draw a line in the sand and left themselves
[6:26] dependent upon the very faction it's now trying to contain to save the party they need to publicly
[6:32] disagree with the dsa on the border on trans and crime yet their party's culture the incentives the
[6:40] risk aversion makes that impossible they treated the dsa like a junior partner rather than a rival
[6:46] ideology and now they're paying the price they adopted the the democrat party made the mistake
[6:52] of adopting the left's language on everything you know the border abolishing ice gender ideology you
[6:58] can go on and on and on with those phrases crime defunding the police that created a vacuum for this
[7:04] organized left that had the energy and the moral fervor to fill which wasn't there with the democrats
[7:10] and now the democrats they fear flight donor flight from the progressive arena so they don't know if
[7:17] they want to upset this this faction that has a cultural and youthful leverage it's there the cost
[7:23] of fighting them it will invite warfare and and alienate the base so but more important i resent having to
[7:31] debate over ideologies that have not only failed but killed millions that we're having this discussion
[7:38] is offensive so i feel like we should leave this with the democrats you know and focus not on
[7:46] articulating a message but implementing the message that we have because if you think about it all the
[7:52] major fronts we've won the opposition has retreated on the trans agenda the climate agenda which we don't
[8:00] hear about uh the open border agenda and for good reason their reality got a cold shower men can't be
[8:08] women fossil fuels are necessary a country can't survive without a border crime is not a lifestyle of
[8:14] the oppressed and your identity doesn't matter when you're making me a smoothie so all of these
[8:19] destructive beliefs were beaten but still they're alive and twitching in the dsa and if they don't put
[8:29] that out the democrat party's toast so that's their battle it's not ours take it away martha so i
[8:37] agree with everything that has been said and i would only add this when you look at the biggest stars
[8:43] who have won democratic elections the presidents bill clinton you look at barack obama and you go
[8:49] back not that far and you look at the things that they said and why they won and why they were able to
[8:55] bring the country together successfully uh and have two terms and bill clinton make welfare what it's
[9:02] meant to be a second chance not a way of life this is looking profound at this point and this is also
[9:09] something that i think most people hear and they say yes of course that's the way it should be it should
[9:13] be a temporary help to get you through a rough patch it's not a way of life then history teaches us the
[9:20] greatest force the world has ever known for creating wealth and opportunity is free markets
[9:25] this is bill clinton other models have been tried and they have failed president obama the best anti-poverty
[9:32] program is a job do you hear any of these people talking this way saying this this is common sense
[9:38] this is what resonates with people and i do think it to kaylee's point it is why when you look through the
[9:44] maps in michigan um and harriet and said it very well and mapped it out very well he said you know she won
[9:50] in the more ethnic areas she wanted in the black areas she won in the blue collar areas and he
[9:57] quote was really just the college towns all right well college sounds not going to get you the dub
