Comedian and actor Tim Poonle joins Jemele to discuss his new show on Comedy Central's Late Night with Seth Meyers, and why he doesn t think Donald Trump is Hitler. Plus, a look at why the left thinks President Trump is like Hitler.
00:04:19.000And Chicago just made Donald Trump's list of things to do today.
00:04:24.000He's looking at cleaning it up as far as crime, doing what he did with DC, but for different reasons and the left, of course, is saying he's just like Hitler.
00:04:32.000I'm going to say something that might catch some of you off guard.
00:04:35.000I do not believe that Donald Trump is Hitler.
00:09:28.000And I know that that's not unique to India.
00:09:30.000You have fitness influencers everywhere.
00:09:34.000But for some reason that one just caught fire.
00:09:37.000It got so popular online it actually inspired India's first ever kung fu film Fists of Curry and yeah well Prajitli is oh my god beautiful that's a quick movie oh what is this crime defecating in a toilet well you know what might change that if one person is able to carry I got it No, nah, it's fine.
00:10:00.000If one person is able to carry, it changes that whole situation.
00:10:02.000That's when people go, oh man, you're cowardly device.
00:10:06.000You know, Sean Penn sang the devices of cowardice.
00:10:08.000If there's 18 Punjabis around you, you know, one round might even the playing field a little bit.
00:10:17.000Sure, we see videos like that, but you also see a lot of videos here in the United States where one person, sometimes a woman, sometimes an older person, sometimes someone who's frail, is able to defend themselves.
00:10:27.000Aren't you grateful for the Second Amendment?
00:12:41.000giving him 135 no it's i don't think that's 135 either they look like 35 plates don't they yeah not 45 here's the thing and, and you can stop the video.
00:12:49.000It's not that he's he's he's weak and I don't know how you get to the point of being a full grown man should be able to bench press 135 pounds, barring some kind of disability.
00:12:56.000You can comment below if that's right, it's kind of a baseline.
00:13:00.000He would have to actively avoid any activities that involve physical strain to be that weak.
00:14:38.000It's really easy to point out someone's failing or point out their hypocrisy if they hold up any standards at all.
00:14:45.000So if someone says, heyy, it's a good thing for a man to be strong, it's a good thing for a man to stay physically capable, and he falls short, well, that doesn't make him a hypocrite.
00:14:54.000It just means that he's working on himself.
00:14:56.000The left loves to hold you to a standard to which they would never hold themselves.
00:16:43.000To accept responsibility, accountability, look at their shortcomings, say, okay, how can I improve this?
00:16:48.000That's why a lot of the men we respect, whether it's Abe Lincoln, George Washington, Teddy Roosevelt, and I'm not talking about all their politics, but they talked about the strenuous life.
00:17:10.000There is a parallel between getting up and doing something difficult to improve yourself when no one's watching, just as far as physical fitness, and I'm not sayinging you have to be mister Olympia.
00:17:20.000And in life, looking at adversity and obstacles and instead of blaming everyone but yourself, again, putting yourself in a position of discomfort to overcome it.
00:17:29.000That's what makes it a masculine trait.
00:17:31.000And that's why the left, today's Progressive Democratic Party, can never resonate with men.
00:17:38.000And they were chanting in the background of the Mumdami, this is how you go up in the poles.
00:17:42.000I'm like, nobody's going to look at this and go, that's my guy.
00:17:44.000That's how you end up dancing on a pole.
00:17:46.000It's like you go up and down someone else's pole, right?
00:17:49.000No, but so No, but think about Hexeth and think about Kennedy.
00:17:53.000Like Kennedy, outside of his voice, is like, well, actually someone who seems seems rather healthy.
00:17:57.000Now, he may do some other stuff that maybe we wouldn't, steroids or something else like that that maybe not so healthy, but he looks healthy.
00:18:06.000Hexeth, when the military feels completely disconnected from leadership because of the path that leadership has gone down, at the very least, looks like he's willing to jump in and do a lot of the stuff.
00:18:15.000Even if he can't do it 100%, he's like right there with them.
00:18:18.000He's doing a lot of those types of things, which is a requirement to identify with you exactly, but to identify with the boys again, right?
00:18:25.000It's not such a complete gap like it used to be.
00:18:27.000And, and Josh, you probably know better than I do, but wouldn't that be, as long as everything else is good, like, wouldn't that be a good thing?
00:19:10.000Discipline is doing what needs to be done or doing the right thing even after the excitement has worn off.
00:19:17.000Now, you can look at policy that obviously would be centered around discipline.
00:19:20.000Hey, you get to keep what you earn, right?
00:19:23.000We shouldn't be taxing you out of existence.
00:19:25.000Pro business policy, the right to choose your health care, right?
00:19:30.000The right to choose to manifest your own that involves discipline because it involves accountability and risk on behalf of the creator, the person, the business owner, the risk taker, the employee, sometimes.
00:19:41.000Same thing, you see someone who is strong, seeing someone who is fast, seeing someone who's good at darts, who's good at whatever it is, you see the manifestation of discipline because you know it took a lot of practice.
00:21:57.000Leadership at Walt Disney Studios has been pressing Hollywood creatives in recent months.
00:22:02.000Multiple sources tell Variety for movies that will bring young men back to the brand in a meaningful way.
00:22:08.000Young men is defined here by sources as ages 13 to 28, a.k.a.
00:22:14.000Gen Z. So we'll get to the numbers and how catastrophic this is for Disney, but believe your lion eyes and ears if you've seen anything Disney's done since 2019., you can notice the pattern.
00:23:33.000You don't see Snow White become a pansexual male.
00:23:38.000You don't see anything that has been known to be for women, which by the way was sort of the basis of Disney., a lot of princess material that never gets common dear, that never gets appropriated by men.
00:24:52.000Not that one, but the-Oh, the new Buzz.
00:24:54.000Lightyear I think it was the one with Cheeky Palmer is in that movie okay okay plays like the daughter so we're watching it and The lady, which is Kiki's mama, they move on into the space years.
00:25:31.000When the left tries, they get too aggressive.
00:25:34.000Because people sort of accepted that the man always shows up as the idiot who can't do anything and boss, babes, and a lot of people who are.
00:25:41.000sort of normies to use the term will go, Well, that's good.
00:25:43.000You have positive role models for both men and women.
00:25:59.000It started off, you know, with a lot of sort of cultural, like we talked about this Friends is a good example where Rachel decides, Oh, she has a dad who wants to be President Ross.
00:26:06.000No, she's going to be a single mom and we're all supposed to praise her as brave and beautiful.
00:26:10.000Now we're at the point where men are sort of seen as walking sperm donors and wallets with teeth.
00:26:15.000And even Snoop Dogg sees it and he's not a guy who shares your plan political beliefs?
00:26:54.000It's just forced into the story in a way that doesn't even need to happen.
00:26:59.000You just don't need to go gay for no reason in a story and you'll probably be fine.
00:27:03.000Well, this is really remarkable because Disney bought a bunch of IP, right?
00:27:07.000Superhero films, Star Wars, that had a built-in male audience.
00:27:12.000You just needed not piss them off and they couldn't help themselves.
00:27:15.000Which tells you, by the way, not that it would be okay, destroying western civilization or the cultural fabric of our country, if it was a profit motive, but it's not even a profit motive.
00:27:26.000People will take what we give them because we can sort of get a stranglehold here on this sort of tripopoly with media and we can force feed them and they'll have to stay around.
00:27:34.000The truth is they proactively lost a built in male audience.
00:27:40.000Men left and women never ended up really coming into the freight.
00:27:44.000Let me give you some examples as far as viewership, right, overall.
00:27:46.000You look at Star Wars, the streaming viewership, 2019 and now, the first show of The Mandalorian had 30 million.
00:28:07.000A show about laser, plasma, laser, whatever, a lightsaber is sword fighting and laser blasters and a giant bear with a round vest and spaceships.
00:28:19.000Who do you think in general this would appeal to?
00:28:22.000To be fair, if you were the one making the trailer, they would not sell a single ticket.
00:31:26.000Like even if she is the world champion javelin record holder, A high school boy could do better, let alone people with superpowers.
00:31:36.000And here's the thing, like they had to go out of their way to say the force is female.
00:31:40.000Whenever there's the best at something, whatever it is, and it happens to be a guy, you just say the best.
00:31:46.000But they'll always say female CEO, female athlete, female superhero, because they want to carve it out.
00:31:54.000They want both the benefit of, hold on, curb your expectations here, because it's still a woman, but then also want to be able to tell you that women can do everything men can do and do it just as well.
00:32:57.000Then the women have to make it exclusive.
00:32:59.000So if you want to say boys' club, men are not excluding women at all to the same degree as women.
00:33:04.000It's may the force be with you, not may the force be with your cock.
00:33:08.000So they have to say, The force, by the way, is female.
00:33:13.000And here's a clip of Kathleen Kennedy, who was Helming Disney talking about just that.
00:33:19.000Years ago, you were at a charity event wearing the Nike Force's female t-shirt and a lot's been made like, like, misinterpreted, but I just want to like, do you want to like, sort of talk about, like, sort of just set the record straight of, like, what that t-shirt sort of meant and I didn't know it was controversial.
00:34:11.000And then, of course, Brie Larson, she wasn't talking about Marvel when she did this, but it's the overall tenor and tone where people, young men, would see women starring in roles and then like, okay, we'll give them a chance until they realize, oh wait, these women in Hollywood proactively hate men.
00:34:29.000So here's Brie Larson saying that a lot of her movies are not made for white men, to which white men said, You got it.
00:34:36.000I do not need a 40-year-old white dude to tell me what didn't work for him about a wrinkle in time.
00:34:59.000I think it was a famous quote, I think it was Bob Hoskins, where they said, they asked him, they said, Who's the most powerful person in Hollywood?
00:35:04.000He said, The person who spends ten dollars on a ticket.
00:35:28.000You don't want to make stuff like that just because, okay, I'm going to try to make as much money as possible and make a crappy film that America will go to because of the advertising.
00:35:35.000You want to kind of balance that and go, I'm going to make something a little more artistic for me or for what I'm trying to do.
00:35:40.000But then you go, but people may not like that.
00:35:42.000And so therefore, if sales aren't down, it's not because they're bad people.
00:35:45.000It's because I made something that I wanted to make.
00:36:16.000I said I had a superhero card and it was one of those superhero cards that was a hologram, it was clearly just a picture of a lady in a high cut bikini, which they just like they animated green.
00:36:23.000And I used to take that under my bunk bed and get very comfortable.
00:37:40.000What would Disney need to do to bring you back?
00:37:42.000And they're trying, in a failed attempt to bring back some of the straight male audience, they're actually set up to release a follow-up to their Snow White next summer.
00:37:51.000And in this case, it seems like they've gone too far the other way.
00:37:53.000It's Snow White submits to the seven dwarves.
00:38:34.000This country is largely, if you want to look at the root causes of us going the wrong direction on a lot of issues, almost always you'll find a liberal white woman.
00:38:43.000Now that doesn't mean that there aren't liberal women of other races.
00:38:46.000And it doesn't mean that there aren't, of course, androgyn liberal white or insert race here, men.
00:38:54.000But liberal white women are the only demographic large enough to bring us into the toxic, secular, weak, socialist culture that we've been dragged toward.
00:40:00.000She was their chief marketing officer and she was the one who said the company needed to avoid traditional biker imagery and she put lesbians on street bobs.
00:40:09.000And now she works for Landa Lakes where she ruined that.
00:40:12.000You can't even fold up the butter box where it looks like you see her breasts.
00:40:30.000What they're going to have to do, they would be better off grabbing any local businessman who owns a franchise of Jack in the Boxes or Taco Bells or just someone like that.
00:40:41.000Someone with a basic business sense who could look at their numbers, say, Okay, what are your demographics?
00:40:45.000Oh, just don't insult the people who buy your product.
00:41:47.000campaign to insult, to degrade, to attack masculinity, and our society is worse off for it.
00:41:54.000And you see that reflected in people like Mumdani, in people like AOC, in Joe Biden, Kamala Harris.
00:42:01.000And you can say what you want about Donald Trump, but at least, and he's flawed, I get it, but at least it's a return to masculinity where men don't feel that they have to be ashamed, and women don't feel as though they're out of masculine options.
00:42:11.000Women, if you're watching, do you honestly think that you're better, that you have better prospects now than your mother did, than your grandmother did, as far as picking a man?
00:42:25.000And by the way, I just want to say that you could have employed a different strategy at Disney.
00:42:29.000You could have kept the masculine stuff masculine.
00:42:32.000There were still strong female roles in some of those.
00:42:34.000You could have played off of those a little bit and created something brand new for women or a different audience like you're talking about with the anime stuff.
00:42:42.000But every time they tried to create something new, like the, what was it, not Lost World, what was that?
00:43:02.000something shouldn't that tell you like people just don't really when that's the thing people don't want it yeah so just don't do that don't ruin stuff and even when you took the star wars thing and made acolytes and tried to do something off of that you can compare mandalorian to acolytes people don't want it at all even if you tailor it in for star wars they hate it just go away from it Yeah, they did have a strong female character people liked.
00:43:25.000Gina Corrano got rid of her because she posted something thoughtful on Instagram.
00:43:29.000Yeah, but even Princess Leia, going back to the original stuff, wasn't like, she was, yes, she was feminine and people would be like, oh, how dare she?
00:44:48.000I have to raise her to know that she is not a perfect princess and that everything she does isn't amazing in spite of the fact that she's a woman.
00:44:55.000And I'm going to have to let him know that he's not a a piece of crap who needs to check his privilege because he's a white man.
00:45:01.000It's two very different forms of messaging.
00:45:05.000And that's not good for anyone because then you have men checking out of the dating pool.
00:45:10.000You can only vilify people for so if you treat your viewers as the villain, they will become your villain.
00:45:17.000Disney turned their male viewers into their very own Captain Hook.
00:45:34.000Now going on to, uh, there's no segue here.
00:45:38.000way here you chicago can we just end it with the picture of the card what co i think it's fair let me see it's got to be you know let me see quick to the draw that's it there it is that is it come on nice games she also has a hammer she does have a hammer practical it's a sledgehammer i don't mind it she could put that to good use you've seen billions right okay so not that scene is there a sledgehammer scene Which end of the sledgehammer is she using?
00:46:10.000So, going on to Chicago, if you were to hear the media tell you, Donald Trump is shredding and wiping his posterior with the Constitution if he sends the guard into Chicago.
00:46:24.000They are arguing that DC is obviously under the federal authority, but Chicago is not, which is interesting because when Donald Trump did it with DC and we saw a record low crime, they said that it was fascist back then, but now like, well, we get DC, but you didn't back then, but now Chicago is a step too far.
00:46:39.000Well, here's the thing, it would be for very different reasons.
00:46:42.000So after DC, President Trump said, I believe this weekend, that Chicago is next on his list to fix up.
00:46:50.000After we do this, we'll go to another location and we'll make it safe also.
00:46:55.000We're going to make our country very safe.
00:46:56.000We're going to make our cities very, very safe.
00:47:23.000beautiful ladies and saying please president don't come to chicago please i did great with the black vote as you know and they want something happened.
00:47:33.000So I think Chicago will be our next lovely, beautiful African American ladies.
00:48:02.000The city of Chicago has a long history of standing up against tyranny, resisting those who wish to undermine the interests of working people.
00:49:40.000I admit that this president is working over time to divide in his attempt to conquer working families and to conquer cities across America.
00:49:51.000But this is clearly a violation of the Constitution, and we're going to remain firm and vigilant in our commitment to ensure that our democracy is protected and our humanity is secured.
00:50:02.000So, before I even get to the truth, just remember, I've always told you this.
00:50:05.000Whenever the left invokes the Constitution, you know they're lying to to you.
00:50:17.000It's actually completely unconstitutional to defy federal policy by claiming to be a sanctuary city.
00:50:22.000That is actually unconstitutional because it's a matter of national security and you're putting your citizens at risk.
00:50:27.000But here's another truth is that President Trump does have the authority to deploy the National Guard.
00:50:32.000Per Title 10 of Federal Law, the President shall take such measures as he considers necessary to suppress in a state any domestic violence if it so hinders the execution of the laws of that state that any part or class of its people is deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution, and the constituted authorities of that state are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right.
00:50:58.000So the president can technically do this over any state objection, but I think there would be a very valid case to be made if you declare yourself a sanctuary city after 20 million illegal aliens have either crossed the border or overstayed their visas, making it the number one issue in an election and the reason that this man was given a mandate as president.
00:51:27.000And then Chicago being a sanctuary city, would that qualify as any part or class of its people being deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution?
00:51:39.000Or would the authorities of that state be considered unable to have failed or refused to protect that right, you know, of legal citizens to not foot the bill to the tune of 150 to 450 billion dollars a year?
00:51:53.000That's what it costs the taxpayers, illegal aliens, not to mention rampant crime, not to mention competing for jobs with third world labor.
00:52:00.000Yeah, there's a reason that it's f a reason Donald Trump was elected and Chicago has said no, no, no, no, no, because in the name of democracy, as a mayor, I'm going to determine that your number one voting issue doesn't matter.
00:52:29.000The fact of the matter is violent crime is actually down in Chicago.
00:52:33.000We've reduced homicides by almost 32%.
00:52:37.000Shootings and shooting victims, we've reduced that by nearly forty percent.
00:52:41.000Robberies are down thirty five percent.
00:52:44.000There is certainly more work to be done, but we are moving towards building the safest, most affordable big city in America.
00:52:51.000And what the Trump administration is attempting to do is to roll back the hands of time and take us to a time period in which we know from the Civil Rights era where doctor Keane described this type of act as one of the three evils.
00:55:09.000Don't you remember that Barack Obama blamed it on Indiana?
00:55:12.000All the, even though Indiana didn't see the crime that Illinois does and Chicago does, he blamed all of the gun crime in Chicago on Indiana, and you can go watch that video where I went to the gun show in Indiana.
00:55:32.000Shot spotter, whatever that technology was to be able to pinpoint where a gun shot came from to make sure that you can send not only police but maybe the ambulance.
00:58:04.000Oh, that's where you're more likely to be the victim of crime.
00:58:06.000So it's almost like throwing more money at the problem, kind of like we've seen with the Department of Education, or insert any other government bureaucracy here, hasn't made it better.
00:58:18.000It's almost like if you give people, for example, government assistance for food, and instead of it being a ration, instead of it being something that gives you a leg up so you can start flying on your own.
00:58:30.000If you allow them to purchase soda and pies and ring dings because there are no conditions with this help, people just continue to drink soda and eat pies and ring dings.
00:58:42.000And that's how you end up with the obesity epidemic in affordable housing.
00:58:47.000You want to know how this policy has failed?
00:58:50.000Go to poor neighborhoods, go to affordable housing, right?
00:58:53.000Government subsidized housing, where people are purchasing their food using government subsidies, whether it's SNAP, EBT, and you have a higher obesity rate.
00:59:02.000This is the first time in human history that poor people are dying from fatness.
00:59:13.000I don't want to get you admonished here, but I was told by a reliable source, in fact a congressman, that actually the health problems were because of the stress created by the N word.
00:59:51.000Because, well, you give up freedom for comfort, right?
00:59:54.000You give up freedom for government assistance, for government housing.
00:59:57.000That's why these people are very easy to control.
00:59:58.000That's why they're a voting base for the Democratic Party.
01:00:00.000And I've been really clear about this.
01:00:02.000Look, when they say the Republicans are the party of the rich, and now the Republicans are the party of the working class, what they really mean, and this hasn't changed that much, the working class in this country, meaning lower middle class, but if they work and pay any taxes to wealthy upper middle class, those people vote Republican conservatives.
01:00:20.000The ultra, ultra wealthy billionaires, too big to fail?
01:02:43.000You get this wonderful hand etched mug, you get everything ad-free, you get the Friday show, and nothing of this happens if you don't sign up and support.
01:02:49.000We're actually funded by viewers like you.
01:02:51.000Try it for 9,99 a month if you want to.
01:02:56.000At a certain point, you look at Chicago has been run by leftist mayors for a very, very long time, okay?
01:03:03.000and far left policy same thing with detroit this lady is saying more of that since 1960 whatever the numbers in chicago i know it's 1960 is the last time there was anyone who was anything other than a radical leftist in charge of detroit chicago is probably similar you've had your way has any of this made your life better has any of this made your city better you can blame some circumstances You know,
01:03:30.000on the reconstruction, okay, you can go back to Jim Crow and I understand that and preciple, okay, but now you have been in charge, meaning the left has been in charge largely unfettered.
01:03:38.000There has been no federalization of the police force and that's not what's been happening in Chicago.
01:03:42.000So right now, 2025 in Chicago, murder capital of the United States, higher than pre COVID violent crime levels.
