Stephen Knows Sports. Whoopi Goldberg. Joe Biden and Mao Zedong. Who's the real favorite to win the Nobel Prize in Literature? And who's the favorite to lose in the NBA Playoffs? This week on Louder With Crowder, we discuss it all.
00:05:23.000And there are some strange comparisons, actually, right now, parallels between Mao's rhetoric, and I should say his direct quotes, which we'll get into with Joe Biden quoting him directly, and also people who work for him Anita Dunn, and what we're seeing today.
00:05:36.000So there's parallels between the ideas, the policies, as well as, not so much a parallel, as like a straight line from Mao To the current DNC.
00:05:56.000All the references available at loudearthcrowder.com.
00:05:59.000By the way, before we move on, if we're not on YouTube, if ever you watch this, just Monday through Thursday, 10am Eastern, we are always here.
00:06:07.000If we're not here on YouTube, that means we're on Rumble, that means we're on Mug Club.
00:06:10.000We do another hour of show on Mug Club.
00:07:32.000By the way, just so everybody knows, we're going to be adding more dates to that calendar.
00:07:35.000We're also going to add all the dates for Dave probably in the next couple of days, but we've got a little cool tour with you two going around the country.
00:07:42.000I hope we send you into like a real commie, you know, blue state and see what happens.
00:07:51.000By the way, before I move on, we're having a cold front moving into Texas, and there might be some ice.
00:07:56.000And this morning, Gerald comes in, and he tells me and John, a Canadian, and then of course Dave, a Midwesterner, he says, hey, there's going to be ice, so we might just have to call off work.
00:08:49.000When you get out this morning on the news broadcast, when you go to your car this morning, you may see something, a small film on your windshield, which is commonly referred to as frost.
00:08:57.000And this can be taken care of with a solution that's one part vinegar, one part witch hazel, and one part eye of newt.
00:09:03.000Just rush out and get bread and milk so your whole family has gas.
00:09:07.000Well, this is like when you northerners had a heat wave of 94 degrees and people were dying.
00:09:12.000We're laughing at you like, come on, 110 is what we do.
00:11:00.000Come on, that's like when Black Lives Matter, it's no longer about the destruction of the nuclear family, you're just looking for an excuse to loot.
00:11:06.000At that point, someone's looking to service themselves in the sneeze shield.
00:11:09.000Jeff Foxworthy is the spokesperson, so there could just be an episode of Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader, and you're not.
00:11:18.000Are you smarter than a fifth grader who gets shoved out of his highchair?
00:11:21.000I was surprised at how quick some of those people that wheeled themselves in ran out when there was a fight.
00:12:29.000This is a problem where this wouldn't escalate if the person who probably started it, there was one instigator, got punched in the mouth initially.
00:17:11.000Hey, by the way, before we move on, it's always interesting to me, who do you think was worse, Hitler or Mao?
00:17:16.000We're going to do a segment on that later, but I want to see you comment now, then comment beneath it, and see if your opinion has changed.
00:17:23.000It's really actually pretty fun for us to see someone say, like, oh, definitely Hitler worse, and then underneath it, like, pfft, I was wrong.
00:19:00.000That's why people all go in with walkers, it becomes a weapon.
00:19:02.000You take off the little half-tennis ball and there's a blade underneath it.
00:19:06.000So, Whoopi Goldberg, look, she's been cancelled from the viewer, she's been temporarily suspended.
00:19:10.000Now, I don't think that she should have been, we talked about yesterday just how unbelievably out of touch she was with her comments regarding the Holocaust not being about race.
00:19:20.000I just, the phrases are coming out of my mouth that are real.
00:20:01.000She tried to clear up her comments on Stephen Colbert, but she ended up making it, I don't want to say significantly worse, so I'll go with much Have you come to understand that the Nazis saw it as race?
00:20:15.000Because asking the Nazis, they would say, yes, it's a racial issue.
00:20:19.000Well, see, this is what's interesting to me, because the Nazis lied.
00:20:25.000They had issues with ethnicity, not with race, because most of the Nazis were white people, and most of the people they were attacking were white people.
00:20:37.000So to me, I'm saying, how can you say it's about race if you are fighting each other?
00:22:00.000Like, I mean, if you're killing someone based on, isn't that, I mean, I certainly think it's more racist than for example, like saying blue lives also matter.
00:22:08.000I certainly think that ethnic cleansing, you know, 6 million people because of their ethnicity is more racist.
00:23:30.000I think people have the right to be wrong.
00:23:32.000That being said, do you think that Stephen Colbert would have had that same grace for any kind of a conservative guest?
00:23:38.000Do you think Whoopi Goldberg would have?
00:23:40.000I mean, you're talking about Whoopi Goldberg, who went after Ben Carson.
00:23:43.000For effectively being an Uncle Tom because he was employed by Donald Trump, who Whoopi Goldberg assumed was racist, when she said something that was blatantly, I don't want to say, I don't want to say racist.
00:23:51.000I don't think that Whoopi Goldberg has hatred in her heart for Jews.
00:23:55.000I don't think that she has disdain for Jews, but I think she's certainly more insensitive.
00:24:00.000If you're going to tell people to check their white privilege, Because they don't believe that there is systemic racism at universities today or at a government level.
00:24:07.000If you're going to tell white people that they are racist, if they make that statement, then you would absolutely have to apply it here as far as Whoopi Goldberg being privileged and ignorant in not understanding that six million people were killed because of their race or ethnicity.
00:24:21.000Yeah, that's black privilege is basically saying that you're the only person that can be discriminated against and have racism against in the United States.
00:24:58.000I picked the second one because I want people to read my resume and give me a job and then be surprised when I walk in the door, see the smile on their faces.
00:25:35.000Imagine, take your pick here, imagine Jenna Ellis going on Stephen Colbert and making that justification and Stephen Colbert not turning to try and get some clapter.
00:25:43.000But imagine David Letterman, how hard he would have gone into Bill O'Reilly.
00:26:01.000So, uh, she was suspended from The View for two weeks.
00:26:03.000This is ABC News President Kim Godwin said, uh, effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments.
00:26:11.000While Whoopi has apologized, I've asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments.
00:26:54.000Speaking of racism right now, it's just amazing how much the left is tipping their hand.
00:26:57.000I do want to agree with you on that, because I think the problem, though, I do want to say with cancel culture is that that whole show And it is karma is based on canceling everyone.
00:27:08.000She is getting a taste of her own medicine, but I do feel that if we side with it, we're just being as bad as I agree.
00:28:45.000I mean, the NFL, you're talking about the significant portion, I think the majority of NFL players, but now they're saying, yeah, but not enough coaches?
00:29:02.000And let's just keep in mind that one of the reasons that he was fired is because in three seasons he went 24 and 25 with the Miami Dolphins.
00:29:30.000Right, so according to what is out right now, he's alleging the Dolphins owner Stephen Ross... 12 years a coach!
00:29:35.000...incentivized him, I'm just gonna keep going, to tank in 2019 by offering $100,000 per loss.
00:29:42.000Now that's pretty interesting because that would just increase the position of your draft, so if you lose the most games, you know like Detroit, Dave, you guys are familiar with number one picks, you guys get to pick first and maybe get the best athlete, and so a lot of times it's a quarterback... Wait, Detroit gets number one picks and they're still Detroit Lions?
00:30:44.000Can a reporter just ask, I just want one of those people at the desk, just when he goes, yeah, he's been referred to as Aurora, I want, without skipping a beat, one of those reporters to go, that's absolutely not true.
00:30:51.000Well, first of all, she took the bus, because she was making roughly $3 million.
00:33:02.000So, they say there's only an interview quota, not a hiring quota, and he's saying, oh, it was just a sham interview.
00:33:09.000Well, you interview five or six candidates a lot of times, and of course some are more popular than others, but you had a 24 and 25 record.
00:33:29.000If you are not qualified, or if you have a losing record, and they go, alright, well, we gotta meet with some black guys, I don't know, bring them in.
00:34:20.000You're telling me that they are willing to take a chance on black players coming to their team to help them win, so the racism stops at players, but the guy who's most directly responsible for making sure the team wins, they're like, Well, that's where I draw the line.
00:34:33.000We're not really taking a chance on black players.
00:34:54.000This is the first page of the lawsuit, and they say, as this class action complaint is filed on the first day of Black History Month, we honor the brave leaders.
00:35:00.000They bring Dr. Martin Luther King in here.
00:35:03.000It's also kind of funny on the first page.
00:35:15.000He gets fired, and he's alleging that his hiring isn't- he's not gonna get hired somewhere because he's just- he's window dressing to meet- Well, also, yeah, exactly.
00:37:11.000But if you, like Reid, the safety who basically was, you know, Kaepernick and Reid were the two guys that were filing suit against the NFL.
00:37:46.000Sure, this has been Gerald Knows Sports.
00:37:53.000Now I want to get to something that is, again, really scary.
00:38:00.000You heard me talk about this with Trudeau, I think Monday, maybe it was Tuesday, and you are seeing the terrifying, totalitarian, tyrannical-like statements being echoed by this administration.
00:38:22.000We saw that with YouTube, where we were getting slapped with warnings and then we were suspended for quoting the CDC.
00:38:26.000Look behind you, there's the slippery slope, okay?
00:38:28.000It's not a logical fallacy if it is actually taking place.
00:38:31.000Now, she was asked, the press secretary, Jen Psaki, about the warning labels on Spotify.
00:38:37.000And I also want... This is the problem.
00:38:40.000We just talked about yesterday, uh, we had it live, where Brian Stelter, or the day before, where he was complaining that people trusted Joe Rogan more than him.
00:38:48.000Look, people will trust you more if you just come out of the closet with your man bag.
00:39:13.000They're out of steak the complete way that I'm not out.
00:39:18.000So, Saki was asked about the warning labels on Spotify.
00:39:21.000And when people say Spotify right now, warning labels on Spotify, let's be clear.
00:39:25.000They are talking about singling out Joe Rogan.
00:39:28.000Like him or hate him, if you support not only freedom of speech, but when we're talking about cancel culture, I understand that Spotify can choose to have whatever they want on their platform.
00:39:38.000You are not dealing with a free market, because the outrage is not coming from the market.
00:39:43.000The outrage is coming from the top down, sort of like with the NFL.
00:39:46.000The outrage is not coming from the viewers.
00:39:48.000The outrage is coming from the media executives who tell them that they need to be more woke.
00:39:53.000And in this case, with Spotify, you have members of the media colluding with members of this administration, who then, when people talk about dog whistles, this isn't a dog whistle.
00:40:25.000Spotify is putting out, uh, advisory warnings on episodes that have to do with COVID-19.
00:40:31.000Does the White House and the administration think this is a satisfactory step, or do you, uh, do you think that companies like Spotify should go further than just, you know, putting a label on their decision?
00:40:39.000Didn't even allow the option that maybe it's wrong.
00:40:41.000Check this out, you know, there's more research you can look at, you know, scientific research regarding COVID.
00:40:46.000Well, last July, you probably know, but the Surgeon General also took the unprecedented step to issue an advisory on the risk of misinformation in public health, which is a very significant step, and that he talked about the role social media platforms have.
00:41:00.000So our hope is that all major tech platforms and all major news sources, for that matter, be responsible and be vigilant to ensure the American people have access to accurate information on something as significant as COVID-19.
00:41:14.000So this disclaimer is It's a positive step, but we want every platform to continue doing more to call out misinformation and misinformation while also uplifting accurate information.
00:41:24.000We want all of the tech platforms and media to be vigilant.
00:41:40.000Do you remember early on in this pandemic, and we were actually working with Jocko Willink's show, not a show, his company, I can't remember what it was called.
00:41:50.000No, it was Jocko, where they were releasing clothes and they started releasing masks.
00:41:53.000We, on this program, in April of 2022, said, look, if you're going out, if you're sick, the best way to create a mask, sorry, In 2020, actually.
00:42:07.000Now, 2020, we said, look, if you're going to make a mask at home, here's what you want to double-ply.
00:42:11.000We said, like, a mixed poly blend, a pillowcase.
00:42:15.000We showed people how to wear a mask if they were sick and they had to go to work.
00:42:17.000This was before we had two weeks to flatten the curve.
00:42:19.000At that time, it's interesting, because Jen Psaki just brought up the surge in general.
00:42:22.000The Surgeon General of the United States, if you don't remember, and I'm sure the control room can bring this up, was tweeting, don't wear masks.
00:43:08.000What if it's like, hey, you know, the vaccine allows you to go out and live your lives again because you can't transmit it.
00:43:15.000What if Big Tech, who you are requesting out there to follow your lead and media, and that is the result of misinformation on Spotify, what if by your request they're spreading your misinformation?
00:43:27.000Because what you are claiming today is accurate information It's yesterday's misinformation.
00:43:40.000This brings me to, this brings me right back to what I said about Trudeau.
00:43:42.000Look, if any of your leaders, that isn't quite there yet, Jen Psaki, but Trudeau, just because, and pardon my language, if you have kids, just because he's a pussy with a capital P and a coward doesn't mean that he's not a tyrant.
00:43:57.000This is one of the scariest quotes I've ever heard a world leader ever in my lifetime speak out loud.
00:46:04.000I mean, you're right, that is chilling, and you need to understand that the unacceptable view, and this is where we always go wrong.
00:46:10.000It's like, well, yeah, maybe this view over here is widely unacceptable, but his unacceptable view is somebody being against a mandate, not being against a vaccine or not being against having people protected from a virus.
00:46:21.000A government mandate is the only thing.
00:46:23.000Just let us do it of our own free will that was given to us by God, because I read the country south of us says that.
00:46:39.000Because when people say you need to find common ground, I'm going to go through this with, all right, let's go through it with right now, the vaccine, the mandates, and let's go through it with climate change, okay?
00:46:48.000So, you can be Pro-personally vaccine, okay?
00:48:11.000Well, and Saki just wants to silence opposition views.
00:48:16.000They have no idea what they're playing with.
00:48:18.000And if they do, then they are the most evil, dictatorial people that we have seen in power in the United States, probably in its history.
00:48:24.000But I think they don't really understand what they are unleashing with this.
00:48:29.000Because it's not the first person that does it, typically, that's the problem.
00:48:32.000It's the next person that comes in, or the person after that, that goes, ah, the groundwork's already been laid.
00:48:37.000All I gotta do is push it just a little further, and all of a sudden, you have people groups that go into concentration camps, you have people groups that are killed by the millions.
00:48:43.000We'll get to that in just a couple of minutes with our comparison of Hitler and Mao.
00:49:04.000And so what happened was he was having a relationship with Alison Gilleste, who was the EVP of marketing, and she was actually tied to giving Governor Cuomo some information, I guess, or helping with the whole Andrew Cuomo thing.
00:51:13.000And then when you have the government saying, we hope that all media and big tech platforms, this is why they're going after Rogan on Spotify.
00:51:21.000Look, It's really easy to control the voices on CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS.
00:51:25.000It's really easy to control the voices on Colbert.
00:51:28.000Really, you're talking about four major companies, and they're losing ground, and then all of a sudden, once we end up in a legal issue with Viacom, whoever it is, our subscribers that were going up, 130,000 a month, boop, stop.
00:51:42.000Right now, I cannot get away from suggested Seth Meyers videos.
00:51:46.000I don't think anyone has ever wanted a suggested Seth Meyers video, but I do want to see what Brian Stelter is saying here.
00:52:47.000You thought he was getting Cuomo's job, that's why he threw Cuomo under the bus, and now he thinks he's gonna get Zucker's job because he's a talentless hack.
00:52:53.000Can someone out there, genuinely, and you know what, you can comment below, I have not, and we have a team of researchers, I have not been able to find any reason that Brian Stelter has that job.
00:53:03.000He had some website, and he sold it, and then next thing you know, he has a show on one of the biggest news... What dirt does he have on people?
00:56:06.000Now we're going to create these brackets and go through this over the next couple of weeks, because a lot of people you all know about Hitler, but you don't know about the other authoritarian tyrants who have existed throughout time.
00:56:14.000So, this is time now between Hitler and Mao, our first Dictator Off!
00:56:18.000That'll never be taken out of context.
00:56:39.000The left, of course, and I know you feel like this is remedial, but the media, those on the left, people like Stelter, of course, they've always been using Hitler.
00:56:49.000And Dave made this great point yesterday, if you missed yesterday's show.
00:56:53.000Their comparison to Any white male Republican, typically, but also black male Republicans and black female Republicans, they always point to them and the comparison to Hitler is made ad nauseam.
00:57:06.000Ruth, when some of us called Trump a fascist last year, we were told that fascists control mobs and paramilitaries and Trump doesn't.
00:57:14.000I mean, he incited a violent mob on January the 6th.
00:57:17.000A lot of voters didn't want to believe everything that was obvious to so many of us, that Donald Trump is a fascist.
00:57:24.000And when it comes to democracy versus fascism, I'm sorry, there are not fine people on both sides.
00:58:07.000So they always compare to Hitler, but not only is barely any attention given to these other horrible dictators, who, by the way, cost many more lives.
01:00:43.000And this is something that sometimes actual white supremacists use.
01:00:45.000They say, actually he really helped with employment and he helped bring back the robust economy.
01:00:48.000Well the number is misleading because that doesn't include the 1.4 million men in the army, the Jews who were basically ousted from their own jobs, and of course the women.
01:00:56.000The rearmament too, this is sort of the origin, not the origin, but certainly people who bitch about the The military-industrial complex.
01:01:03.000Well, what did this do in Germany at that time?
01:01:08.00050% increase in profits for big businesses.
01:01:11.000And again, this is the National Socialist Workers' Party of Germany.
01:01:15.000It's always ironic that in every form of socialism, communism, the big businesses, the ones with the big contracts do well, the medium, the small businesses, they suffer.
01:01:24.000And I'm going to get back to that too, as well, with both Hitler and Mao.
01:03:38.000The communes directed all agriculture, local government, they managed all economic and social activity, all the resource allocation, food distribution, and then here's the thing, here's the problem.
01:03:48.000Let's say that this is done with good intentions, like Jen Psaki just before, saying it would be really good, you know, if they followed the Surgeon General's warning on Spotify with misinformation.
01:03:58.000Okay, let's assume that your intentions are pure.
01:04:03.000And that's the problem with consolidation of power.
01:04:05.000When people bitch about capitalism, I've always pointed this out.
01:04:07.000I say, well sure, I believe that people in positions of power can be corrupt, and you see that with executives, you see that with some companies, but there is at least some form of a self-correcting mechanism.
01:04:15.000That doesn't happen when the power is consolidated to people who are beholden to nobody.
01:04:21.000So, what would happen to when it came to farming in China, because of Mao, Anita Dunn, Joe Biden, big fans, they're in the Mao fan club, they have a Mao wall, They mandated practices, these bureaucrats in urban areas in China, like overseeding, over-fertilizing.
01:04:38.000And they ended up just, even though, let's assume they weren't evil, they were just wrong, they ended up screwing up agriculture in China.
01:04:45.000So they had this Four Pests campaign, and that was to get rid of, look, this makes sense, flies?
01:04:57.000So let's just say they weren't evil, we'll get to the 45 million people who died, they were stupid.
01:05:03.000So people, citizens, were actually encouraged to bang pots and pans to prevent sparrows from landing because they believed that the sparrows were killing the crops.
01:05:11.000Again, this is the problem when you have someone, picture China, but picture here, someone in D.C.
01:05:15.000telling someone in Indiana how to run their crops when they have no idea, and I don't mean telling them how much You know, they can yield.
01:05:22.000They're fixing prices like we have here with cherries and with milk, which is absurd because we fix prices.
01:05:27.000I mean, literally telling them what standards and practices in Iowa, you know, that they have to use for corn.
01:05:32.000Imagine Anita Dunn saying, no, no, no, no, no.
01:05:34.000This is how you're going to, uh, this is how you're going to farm corn.
01:07:51.000When we're dealing with the other people.
01:07:52.000Not sure who they passed, but it's like, they run out of bad people to kill, and they're like, ah, we like you, but we've got to kill you for the record.
01:08:11.000We're going from an agricultural society, right, an agrarian society, to sort of a top-down society.
01:08:15.000We had an industrial revolution here in the United States.
01:08:17.000The problem is, in China, and it was not without its problems in the United States, but in China they tried to force it.
01:08:23.000They tried to force the markets through, what, the power, the coercion of government, and they were aiming to actually double steel production.
01:09:07.000And I think each of us, particularly in the context of a pandemic that's killing millions of people, you have got to look at it and say there comes a time when you do have to give up what you consider your individual right of making your own decision.
01:09:27.000for the greater good of society. Now, we have all references available at
01:09:31.000lottowithcrowder.com. There's a lot to dive into here, so I'm going to try and give you
01:09:34.000the cliff notes. And Gerald, you can jump in wherever you want. This is also another thing,
01:09:38.000of course, when you have communist socialist regimes. Hey, I want to know, in the United
01:09:43.000States, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, big cities, right?
01:09:52.000They promise more social safety nets, right?
01:09:55.000The left, of course, is the one that wants you to be in big cities, and they want big cities to have undue influence over the rest of the country.
01:10:00.000That's why they want to do away with the Electoral College.
01:11:28.000Wanted Germany to be entirely self-sufficient, wanted social order placing Aryan race at the top, and ultimately killed political dissidents who threatened German nationalism.
01:11:37.000That's the only way that you can get everybody on board is if you just kill people.
01:12:34.000I'm trying to think, is there any political wing today that wants to do away with American traditions, ideas, practices, cul... I just... I think... The left, maybe?
01:12:46.000People have been beaten down so long, and they feel so betrayed by government.
01:12:53.000It's not surprising then that they get bigger and they cling to guns or religion or antipathy
01:13:17.000Leaving, well, taxation without representation, but we said, ah, we don't want to do the Church of England thing and we're gonna make sure that we don't have to by using this bad boy.
01:13:24.000Freedom of religion had nothing to do with it.
01:15:03.000Now, he often did quote the Bible and Jesus in writings, but he practiced something known as positive Christianity.
01:15:08.000This was an attempt to blend his ethno-German nationalism with Christianity, just to be clear.
01:15:13.000The Nazi platform actually read, let me read this to you, quote, The party as such stands for positive Christianity but does not commit itself to any particular denomination.
01:15:22.000It combats the Jewish materialist spirit within and without us and is convinced that our nation can achieve permanent health only from within on the basis of the principle the common interest before self-interest.
01:15:35.000So whenever someone says, hey when you have conservatives say that Hitler was a socialist, that's their platform.
01:15:41.000It's their name and it's their platform.
01:15:42.000I dated a girl that had that tattooed on her back.
01:19:01.000There were glorifying songs that were being played from street speakers.
01:19:05.000They had to be sung by school children.
01:19:07.000There were parades for Mao held twice a year in Tiananmen Square.
01:19:12.000I guess this one, again, we're going to have to say is even when we're looking at who was the worst dictator, okay, they basically both did their best to outlaw faith.
01:19:22.000Because, well, first off, not only is that how you institute a new form of what effectively becomes moral decay, right, and you're required to be the messianic figure, but it also allows you to remove hope, and that's very important.
01:19:52.000The singing of songs by schoolchildren, does anybody remember when they were doing the songs about, was it Fauci and the vaccine or something like that?
01:20:00.000I don't know, that sounded a little familiar.
01:20:02.000When he was running protesters over with his power wheels?
01:20:05.000And also making somebody into kind of this deity, this person who is beyond reproach that you can't question and everything that they tell you to do.
01:20:13.000Are you guys seeing the comparison here at all?
01:20:16.000It's not necessarily a Biden or somebody like that who's doing it, but it's Fauci.
01:22:32.000So what happens here is you have to look at the ideas and what they stem from.
01:22:36.000Okay, is Mao that far off from Hitler as far as what they want to do with the country, with their vision?
01:22:42.000Not necessarily, just as far as nationalism is really the only kind of differentiating factor as far as ethno-nationalism.
01:22:48.000If you look at what the Chinese and the Japanese thought, they all believed there was really kind of one superior Asian race, but that'll be for another day.
01:22:54.000This idea was always, look, you put your needs second, you put your self-interest second for the common good, and by the way, we're not requesting that, we're going to ensure that you do that by government power, by coercion.
01:23:06.000Look, we need all of you in big cities and urban areas so that we can make sure that we control you and we determine where you live, what businesses can open, what businesses can close, that we make sure we have control over not only the media but the educational system.
01:23:19.000People in the urban areas here, the elites, they're going to be in charge of what happens in the rural areas.
01:23:23.000They're going to tell them how to farm.
01:23:25.000They're going to tell them what they can farm.
01:23:26.000They are going to tell which people are allowed to farm.
01:23:30.000This is something that has been going on really, you know, it's human nature, but communism and socialism just removed the reins and allowed the worst components of human nature to run free.
01:23:42.000And this is why anywhere it has been tried, ever, It's awful.
01:23:47.000And it's also why it's terrifying, just on a smaller scale.
01:23:50.000We do have checks and balances here in the United States.
01:23:52.000But you have eight years of Obama, you have four years under Donald Trump, and now you have a couple of years under Joe Biden.
01:24:15.000I think it would be pretty hard for someone today to make a comparison, though they make it all the time, and say, yeah, you know what, Donald Trump or Ted Cruz or Ben Carson, dead ringer for Hitler.
01:24:27.000I think even in their alone time, and we all have this when you're in your alone time and you're kind of reflecting on what you said, and hopefully you're giving an honest assessment of yourself.
01:24:36.000If people like Jen Psaki's of the world, Joe Biden of the world, Kamala Harris's of the world, Anita Dunn's of the world, people who all work together, they're in their alone time.
01:24:45.000They've got to say, okay, do I really think that these people are Hitler?
01:24:52.000Do I see a through line in similarities between Mao, who these people have praised, I've praised, and the policies of Marxism, Leninism, what we see throughout, well I even have Bernie Sanders in my party saying socialism isn't all that bad of a thing and bread lines are.
01:25:08.000Yeah, you know what, I think, I'm not saying that they're Mao, I'm not saying that they're Stalin, but it certainly is more of an apt comparison than Donald Trump or any guy in this room to Hitler Regardless of the pigment of our skin.
