00:04:17.000 There you go.

00:04:18.000 Ding.

00:04:20.000 Before I get to the drinking game rules, we have Gerald A. in the studio, and he is sick.

00:04:24.000 He's playing his flu game tonight.

00:04:26.000 I am playing my flu game, but don't worry.

00:04:27.000 I came prepared.

00:04:28.000 The cure's all that ails ya.

00:04:30.000 Yes, yeah.

00:04:31.000 I don't think that's actually how it works, but maybe if it's mulled with spices.

00:04:35.000 Well, maybe some rum would do that, I don't know.

00:04:38.000 Oh yeah, spiced rum, that's right.

00:04:39.000 But not all rum is spiced, Gerald.

00:04:40.000 Already, he gets it wrong.

00:04:42.000 He gets it wrong.

00:04:43.000 What kind of pirate are you anyway?

00:04:44.000 Well, not a good one.

00:04:45.000 I think it's implied.

00:04:46.000 Also, to my left, your right, so you have to do this stage.

00:04:50.000 You're technically upstage a little bit for the audience.

00:04:53.000 We do a little bit of stage terminology.

00:04:55.000 Are you playing his theme music?

00:04:56.000 Yeah.

00:04:56.000 Bring it on.

00:04:57.000 It's Brian Cowell.

00:04:58.000 He's going to be in New Brunswick, New Jersey.

00:05:01.000 See, I'm thinking of the province.

00:05:02.000 Stress factory! 0.95

00:05:03.000 May 11th through the 13th.

00:05:04.000 You can go to briancowell.com for more dates.

00:05:06.000 Looking forward to tonight?

00:05:07.000 I'm excited.

00:05:07.000 I have my clipboard.

00:05:08.000 I don't know what's on here, but it looks official.

00:05:10.000 Well, you would if you did the prep.

00:05:12.000 I'm going to lick my finger when I turn the page.

00:05:13.000 Now... They don't call him the best color man in the business for nothing, Bob.

00:05:16.000 Just don't do it with a comic book, because that takes its street value from $15,000 to nothing.

00:05:20.000 I didn't know that.

00:05:21.000 I found that out.

00:05:22.000 But it's my saliva and I'm a celebrity, so... So, we have a drinking game tonight, by the way.

00:05:26.000 Oh, you got to already make an adjustment here?

00:05:27.000 You could... What happened?

00:05:29.000 Well, I can use my stage voice.

00:05:31.000 In the lower third there, Toolman.

00:05:32.000 The drinking game rules.

00:05:33.000 Let me make sure I have these rules.

00:05:35.000 You can play along with us and send in your, I don't know, your sloshed pictures.

00:05:40.000 Anytime you hear any of the above, you take a drink.

00:05:42.000 If you hear January 6th, if you hear excuse me, if you hear the words indictment or impeachment, anytime there's a thug life moment, and anytime Donald Trump insults the host, you finish your drink.

00:05:54.000 Number two, please, because I don't think that was fair.

00:05:57.000 I need it.

00:05:57.000 Anytime you're here.

00:05:59.000 Excuse me.

00:06:01.000 Excuse you.

00:06:02.000 Excuse me.

00:06:02.000 Excuse you.

00:06:03.000 You should be.

00:06:04.000 I'm excusing.

00:06:05.000 No, I excuse you.

00:06:06.000 Excuse me.

00:06:06.000 I won't be sipping my wine.

00:06:08.000 I'll be swilling my wine.

00:06:10.000 We also, by the way, because Title 42 is ending, so we actually have some correspondence tonight.

00:06:15.000 We have, well, first off, we go now live to the border.

00:06:17.000 We have a live border cam.

00:06:22.000 Well, that is tough.

00:06:22.000 We also have a live Biden cam tonight, so we actually managed to spare no expense.

00:06:27.000 We have a camera over there at the White House to see what's going on, and Thomas Finnegan is on the ground tonight at the town hall.

00:06:33.000 So what do you guys expect tonight?

00:06:34.000 Here's what I will say, and bring it up there in the lower box so that people know it's ready to go there, Toolman.

00:06:39.000 I expect the world to remember what they liked about Donald Trump tonight.

00:06:42.000 I expect it to be biased, but you have Caitlyn Collins, and I can hear your little boy out there screaming.

00:06:51.000 It's a bomb going off.

00:06:52.000 Don't worry.

00:06:52.000 All right, well, that's fine.

00:06:53.000 Hey, look, it's older, fatter Josh Gad on CNN.

00:06:59.000 Very good.

00:07:02.000 It's Caitlin Collins who's going to be doing this tonight.

00:07:04.000 She's had a lot of run-ins with Donald Trump, right?

00:07:07.000 I expect there to be intense biases, and we'll be fact-checking that.

00:07:10.000 I expect it to be tilted, and I expect them to start with the premise that is alive.

00:07:14.000 I've been watching CNN all day, so you don't have to.

00:07:17.000 Where they've been talking about Donald Trump losing this civil lawsuit.

00:07:20.000 By the way, not sexual assault, battery.

00:07:22.000 This is battery.

00:07:24.000 And they changed the statute of limitations just last year so that it would extend into Thanksgiving this year so that they could say that's battery.

00:07:32.000 They're going to be bringing that up and they were talking about it today and they said, how does this hurt Trump?

00:07:35.000 How does this hurt Donald Trump?

00:07:36.000 And Jake Tapper said, along with one of his lackeys, well, you know, for people who are always Trump, they'll still be always Trump, but this may affect the Republicans who are mostly focused on winning a general.

00:07:45.000 They don't want to acknowledge that the last two polls have Donald Trump beating Biden in a general, and by more than DeSantis.

00:07:51.000 Doesn't matter where you line up!

00:07:52.000 Those are the, that's the definition of fake news.

00:07:55.000 You do not have to start with right now, ooh, all this bombastic prickishness.

00:07:58.000 That's why Donald Trump beats Joe Biden by a wider margin, by a heftier margin than DeSantis.

00:08:03.000 So I expect them to be biased.

00:08:05.000 I expect them to not really face up to that fact right now, because the whole narrative is, if you want Donald Trump, okay, he has his base, but he won't win in a general.

00:08:12.000 That doesn't seem to be the case.

00:08:13.000 And I expect them to bring up the fake sexual assault.

00:08:17.000 And by that, I mean, he wasn't actually, he wasn't actually found guilty of sexual assault, just battery and defamation.

00:08:22.000 Yeah.

00:08:22.000 Well, and he'll appeal that, I'm assuming.

00:08:24.000 I assume you can appeal a civil verdict.

00:08:26.000 I don't know, man.

00:08:27.000 I'm not a legal scholar over here.

00:08:29.000 Get Rackete on here! 1.00

00:08:30.000 I know, right?

00:08:30.000 Exactly.

00:08:31.000 Wouldn't you say that people are tuning in, though, to see Trump go off script?

00:08:36.000 Because you know he's been coached a certain way, but we want to see more of what he did in the deposition.

00:08:41.000 He's just such a loose cannon that you never know, and this could be historic.

00:08:46.000 Yeah, I think it's going to introduce people to Donald Trump all over again.

00:08:48.000 Which is great.

00:08:49.000 It's like renewing your vows.

00:08:51.000 It's a must-watch TV, let's be honest.

00:08:53.000 CNN!

00:08:54.000 And you made a good point why they have Caitlin Collins.

00:08:56.000 And by the way, for those who don't know, Caitlin Collins is the one with hairy forearms at CNN. 0.89

00:08:59.000 I thought it was a little bit weird because you've got Jake Tapper and you've got Wolf Blitzer, these two, and it's not because they're men.

00:08:59.000 Go ahead.

00:09:05.000 Don't get me wrong, I'll get to that point in just a second.

00:09:06.000 They're not men!

00:09:07.000 They're not men!

00:09:10.000 A lot of the hosts at CNN weren't men, even though they were men, if you know what I mean.

00:09:17.000 I think the problem is that you put kind of an attractive, younger woman out there with Donald Trump, so that if Donald Trump pushes back, like his characteristic thing to do is to push back on the news and call them fake news, it'll look like he's beating up on somebody.

00:09:30.000 If it's a guy, it's a different story, right? 0.95

00:09:32.000 Unless it's Stelter, but they don't bring him back.

00:09:34.000 You see him talking trash about Tucker?

00:09:37.000 Tucker was toxic to Fox News! 0.91

00:09:39.000 He was hemorrhaging sponsors!

00:09:41.000 Have you guys heard of clinical projection?

00:09:45.000 I'm straight!

00:09:46.000 The number one show in all of cable news was Toxic!

00:09:50.000 Oh my god, he's defecting!

00:09:52.000 No, so I think what you'll hear a lot of from Caitlin is if there's a legitimate question asked by a Republican voter, right, in the GOP primary, that's the people that are supposed to be in the room, you'll hear a, well, or actually, right, from her to try to press Donald Trump on something where she would never press Joe Biden.

00:09:52.000 Exactly.

00:10:10.000 And it also helps set her up to ask him about Set it up as though he's guilty of rape or sexual assault, right?

00:10:17.000 Yes. 0.97

00:10:17.000 How do you feel to be a rapist, Mr. Former President? 0.97

00:10:20.000 Yeah, in so many words. 0.99

00:10:20.000 Right, exactly. 0.99

00:10:22.000 And here's the thing you need to understand.

00:10:24.000 People will say, oh, you're gaslit.

00:10:25.000 Oh, this is just the attack they use against women. 1.00

00:10:27.000 Jean, is it Jean A. Carroll?

00:10:29.000 E. Jean Carroll.

00:10:30.000 E. Jean Carroll.

00:10:31.000 Her name is E.

00:10:32.000 Wait, is her name, is it Jean E. Carroll?

00:10:34.000 I think it's E. Jean Carroll.

00:10:35.000 Her last name is Carroll.

00:10:36.000 Yes.

00:10:37.000 And we know that.

00:10:37.000 And she was in there somewhere.

00:10:38.000 And when I say she's an insane person, look, this is the person who sued Donald Trump decades later for a rape that didn't happen, but sexual battery, which means he touched her and she didn't like it. 0.90

00:10:51.000 But this is, I have plenty of clips. 0.96

00:10:54.000 Just see this. 0.94

00:10:54.000 She's crazy. 0.94

00:10:56.000 Oh, clip sexy! 1.00

00:10:57.000 I think most people think of rape as a violent assault.

00:11:04.000 I think most people think of rape as being sexy.

00:11:09.000 Let's take a short break.

00:11:10.000 Think of the fantasies.

00:11:12.000 We're going to take a quick break.

00:11:13.000 You're fascinating to talk to.

00:11:22.000 She's looking at his shoulder for no reason.

00:11:24.000 She's looking straight at his chest. 0.98

00:11:25.000 She's just going, let's see if they think rape is sexy. 1.00

00:11:27.000 That is the most awkward I have seen him. 0.98

00:11:30.000 I don't think she knows that Anderson Cooper's gay. 0.99

00:11:34.000 I think rape is sexy, Anderson. 1.00

00:11:36.000 She's licking her lips. 1.00

00:11:37.000 I like me a silver-haired fox.

00:11:38.000 He's like, I like... I like dick. 1.00

00:11:40.000 What's going on? 1.00

00:11:42.000 Ew.

00:11:43.000 What, were you about to say something, Brian?

00:11:43.000 What?

00:11:46.000 She didn't take her eyes off his delicious torso.

00:11:49.000 No.

00:11:50.000 To me, you're just a torso.

00:11:51.000 To me, you're just a body.

00:11:52.000 By the way, the guy right now on CNN, bring this up full screen.

00:11:54.000 Do you think that this guy believes he's fooling anybody with that hairpiece?

00:11:58.000 Like, do you think that he's sitting there like, yep, it's like Frank Luntz. 0.99

00:12:02.000 No one's the wiser, they're looking at my shitty sneakers. 0.91

00:12:06.000 Sir, your sneakers are not in frame. 0.98

00:12:07.000 Space looks tight for a 50-year-old.

00:12:08.000 So, I'm trying to think, what do we think are the most important clips for people to see here?

00:12:12.000 I think probably some clips between Collins and Donald Trump.

00:12:15.000 Yeah, I think that's probably the best, right?

00:12:17.000 So she obviously, she was, I'll go through a couple of things really quickly.

00:12:20.000 In 2014, hired by the Daily Caller.

00:12:21.000 2017, Daily Caller White House correspondent.

00:12:23.000 Moved over to CNN in 2017 and actually said that obviously the Daily Caller, and this is a quote from her, is a more ideologically aligned organization than CNN, which is worldwide and has such a range of coverage.

00:12:33.000 Trying to get hired much, I think?

00:12:35.000 Right, yeah.

00:12:35.000 Seems a little bit weird there, but then she's named 2021 CNN chief White House correspondent.

00:12:42.000 Who owned a chief.

00:12:43.000 I just want to hear Trump.

00:12:45.000 Do you think what's he over under Trump looks at her and goes, you're not my type either.

00:12:48.000 Yeah.

00:12:50.000 Let's, you know what?

00:12:51.000 Tweet in.

00:12:51.000 You can tweet me at Ask Crowder.

00:12:52.000 Use the hashtag CrowderTownHall.

00:12:54.000 Let's see who thinks that's a good, I bet you that's going to happen.

00:12:56.000 I got to hear that.

00:12:57.000 I guarantee.

00:12:58.000 Cause if she starts pressing him, he's going to be honest.

00:13:01.000 I'll say it again.

00:13:01.000 I don't want to be rude.

00:13:02.000 You're not my type.

00:13:03.000 I wouldn't want to swoon you.

00:13:03.000 You're not my type either.

00:13:06.000 You're not, no, excuse me, excuse me, you're not my type.

00:13:08.000 Don't take it personally, a lot of people, because my type, frankly, excuse me, is pretty, I like good looking, attractive, I noticed Gerald used that term loosely tonight, Caitlyn, attractive, right?

00:13:22.000 Tell me I would never say that and that's my excuse me.

00:13:25.000 That's my type and you're frankly not that right Your teeth are too small.

00:13:30.000 So it's just it's just personal preference.

00:13:32.000 I like pretty women. 1.00

00:13:34.000 I like feminine women I like women who are good-looking. 1.00

00:13:37.000 I like women who they're attractive and you're not Ten minutes later she's like, okay. 1.00

00:13:48.000 So let's show you, this is the person they chose to do this town hall with Donald Trump, who by the way, beats Joe Biden, former Vice President Biden, by a wide margin right now, by even more than DeSantis.

00:13:58.000 They're pretty close.

00:13:58.000 DeSantis and Donald Trump are within the margin of error as far as by how much they beat Biden, but they are not within the margin of error according to ABC and Washington Post.

00:14:06.000 Now two polls in a row in beating Biden.

00:14:08.000 So, this is damage control.

00:14:10.000 I expect this to be a way to try and kneecap Donald Trump, to try and Tonya Harding him before he gets started.

00:14:15.000 And that's why they picked the hairy forum lady at CNN. 1.00

00:14:18.000 Let's show you a montage of their interactions that have been... contentious?

00:14:23.000 You ran your campaign promising supporters that Mexico is going to pay for the wall and that the wall was going to be made of concrete.

00:14:30.000 You just said earlier that the wall could be made of steel and right now our government is shut down over a demand from your administration that the American taxpayer pay for the wall.

00:14:39.000 So how can you say you're not failing on that promise to your supporters?

00:14:43.000 A very nice question, so beautifully asked, even though I just answered it.

00:14:47.000 Has any governor agreed that you have the authority to decide when their state is going to back up?

00:14:51.000 I haven't asked anybody.

00:14:53.000 You know why?

00:14:53.000 Because I don't have to.

00:14:54.000 I think it was a fake report done by CNN.

00:15:01.000 The problem is you don't like the truth.

00:15:03.000 So, you know, as far as I'm concerned, I want to go.

00:15:04.000 I want to go to the next.

00:15:06.000 Thank you very much, everybody.

00:15:10.000 Thank you.

00:15:14.000 So is she the one, is that?

00:15:16.000 That's the one who's conducting this tonight.

00:15:17.000 Oh wow, okay.

00:15:18.000 And don't remember, or don't forget, they actually brought her in to kind of co-host the morning show that has been so wonderful with Don Lemon and Poppy Harlow.

00:15:27.000 Yes, and there's a montage there but we can go to it later because I think we have to.

00:15:31.000 We'll go to it later, yeah.

00:15:32.000 I don't know if Donald Trump will appear on CNN at all.

00:15:41.000 I think I know your opinion, Brian.

00:15:43.000 Do you think it's a good idea for him to appear?

00:15:44.000 I do indeed.

00:15:45.000 I knew he would say that.

00:15:46.000 I think you're right because I think, correct me if I'm wrong, I think you're predicating this on reaching other people, right?

00:15:53.000 Having a dialogue across the aisle.

00:15:54.000 Well, I'm more interested in engaging.

00:15:58.000 I like that he's engaging in the belly of the beast.

00:16:00.000 And I agree.

00:16:01.000 He's in the maw, in the round.

00:16:02.000 I agree with that, except for the fact That CNN has no audience if not for Donald Trump.

00:16:07.000 It's the same reason that, you know, you don't just debate every single Twitter egg.

00:16:10.000 Donald Trump is giving, they need Donald Trump.

00:16:13.000 But he can use that to his advantage.

00:16:14.000 I'm making your ratings, you need me.

00:16:18.000 That to me is a pretty cool card.

00:16:21.000 That's a good point, but I think unfortunately they're so short-sighted they don't care.

00:16:25.000 They still want to get rid of him.

00:16:26.000 Do you not think he should, would you have advised him not to do I think that Donald Trump, he should have done it just independently is what I think.

00:16:31.000 At least the first go around.

00:16:33.000 He should have done it, for example, he does some stuff on Rumble or whether it be Truth Social.

00:16:36.000 So as not to give CNN... Yeah, he should have done it first.

00:16:38.000 That way he can, it's almost like shopping.

00:16:40.000 Shopping it around.

00:16:41.000 People go, oh my gosh, look at what he did.

00:16:43.000 He did way bigger numbers than our network could do with him.

00:16:45.000 And then he says, you know, who wants some?

00:16:47.000 Who wants the biggest numbers at that point?

00:16:49.000 Then he can maybe have some influence.

00:16:51.000 What about the cachet he gets from being able to beat, or at least engage with people who he knows have a bias against him?

00:17:00.000 I don't think that's why he's doing it, though.

00:17:01.000 I think he's doing it because he's mad at Fox News, and rightfully so.

00:17:04.000 Because I think more damaging than lies, or even lies by omission, which are very damaging, it goes this way.

00:17:10.000 What's most damaging with the media?

00:17:12.000 Lies. 0.99

00:17:13.000 Outright lies.

00:17:13.000 Bias.

00:17:14.000 That would be like MSNBC.

00:17:15.000 Okay, but everyone knows what they're getting.

00:17:16.000 Lies by omission. 0.93

00:17:17.000 That would be CNN once upon a time when they had actual ratings.

00:17:20.000 Even more dangerous are half-truths.

00:17:22.000 And that's what you get at Fox News.

00:17:24.000 And I think that Donald Trump feels really burned by that because he knows that they were actively trying To collude against him, to use the word, and they were supposed to be out.

00:17:32.000 It's very different when someone puts on your team jersey.

00:17:34.000 Yeah.

00:17:35.000 Right?

00:17:35.000 It ends up being, like in Christianity, apostasy.

00:17:37.000 So let's look at Cena.

00:17:38.000 They just had their, by the way, lowest rated month in a decade.

00:17:41.000 You know what their numbers were during primetime?

00:17:43.000 What?

00:17:43.000 122,000.

00:17:43.000 Ain't close to Crowder!

00:17:46.000 Sorry.

00:17:47.000 Nary a demo viewer.

00:17:49.000 No, I think this was just Bill Devane watching 122,000 times.

00:17:55.000 Yep, that's what it says right there.

00:17:57.000 So it's terrible, man.

00:17:58.000 So lowest rated month, they fired Brian Stelter.

00:18:00.000 They fired Don Lemon.

00:18:01.000 CNN Plus was cancelled after two weeks?

00:18:03.000 Less than a month, I think.

00:18:05.000 It was less than a month?

00:18:06.000 Yeah.

00:18:06.000 So they need Donald Trump, and he really is giving them a leg up.

00:18:10.000 You guys comment.

00:18:11.000 Look, you tell me what you guys think.

00:18:13.000 I have two minds about it.

00:18:14.000 I think he should have done it independently first.

00:18:16.000 You know what I thought you'd think would have been a great thing to do, and I'm serious?

00:18:19.000 He should have said, pay me a million dollars.

00:18:22.000 Yes.

00:18:22.000 For real.

00:18:23.000 Like, you want me on you?

00:18:24.000 You want me on you?

00:18:24.000 Pay me, pay me, pay me half the advertising revenue.

00:18:27.000 You should have demanded what was just awarded to that crazy broad Carol. 1.00

00:18:30.000 Five million dollars.

00:18:30.000 Pay me, I don't know, five million dollars.

00:18:33.000 I'll do it.

00:18:34.000 Or maybe five million batteries you could give me.

00:18:38.000 Pay my legal fees.

00:18:39.000 Energizer. 1.00

00:18:40.000 None of that, none of that generic shit. 0.99

00:18:42.000 So there's two things that I like about this. 0.99

00:18:44.000 One, this could be an epic troll, right?

00:18:46.000 Because he knows CNN is going to get absolutely lambasted, right, for this.

00:18:51.000 And he already has.

00:18:52.000 Right.

00:18:52.000 And people are going to be mad at him.

00:18:53.000 But pair this with he said he's not going to do the first debate and the first debate in August is on what network?

00:18:59.000 Fox.

00:18:59.000 Right.

00:19:00.000 Right.

00:19:00.000 So he's it's a bit of a power play, but it's also a pretty cool troll because CNN can't win.

00:19:04.000 No, it's true.

00:19:06.000 Everybody who likes him is pissed off.

00:19:09.000 He knows that they have to watch this ratings spike and then, like a fight in the wind, gone.

00:19:16.000 Forever.

00:19:17.000 It really is.

00:19:19.000 Because it's more painful to have loved, Brian, and lost, they say.

00:19:23.000 That's right.

00:19:23.000 Touch me again, I love that.

00:19:25.000 By the way, your sweater's pilling.

00:19:29.000 This is Kashmir.

00:19:30.000 Kashmir.

00:19:30.000 You know how I say Kashmir?

00:19:31.000 Yeah, I do.

00:19:32.000 I got it from the Kashmir Valley, everyone.

00:19:34.000 I don't even think they call it that there.

00:19:35.000 Not true at all.

00:19:36.000 I have no idea.

00:19:37.000 So use the promo code... So soft on the top, so hard underneath.

00:19:40.000 CrowderTownHall.

00:19:41.000 Sorry.

00:19:41.000 No, that's fine.

00:19:42.000 At louderscrowder.com slash MugClub.

00:19:43.000 And of course, CrowderTownHall is the hashtag.

00:19:45.000 Is she preparing right now?

00:19:46.000 The one in the white pantsuit?

00:19:47.000 I don't know.

00:19:47.000 You were battering me.

00:19:48.000 I don't know.

00:19:49.000 There's one more minute.

00:19:50.000 Donald Trump's like, I'll come out when I'm ready.

00:19:51.000 Yes.

00:19:53.000 He'll take his time.

00:19:54.000 There's a lot of Tony Clifton in Donald Trump.

00:19:56.000 There really is.

00:19:57.000 He's just sitting back there.

00:19:58.000 I'm warping up my vocal chords. 0.87

00:20:03.000 If he smoked, he would blow the cigarette in your face. 0.99

00:20:06.000 Boring. 0.56

00:20:08.000 You know, this makes him look brave though, right?

00:20:11.000 Like, he's like, bringing it on.

00:20:12.000 He doesn't care. 1.00

00:20:13.000 You're a disgrace. 0.99

00:20:15.000 Now I want him to come out as Tony Clifton. 0.99

00:20:16.000 I know, right?

00:20:17.000 That'd be great.

00:20:18.000 I just brought Caitlin Collins.

00:20:20.000 Think the white pants suit make you look more slim?

00:20:22.000 Take the attention off your forearms, huh?

00:20:24.000 He should come out in a Biden mask.

00:20:25.000 Oh, there's Wolf.

00:20:26.000 Lowest score ever on Celebrity Jeopardy!

00:20:28.000 Blitzer?

00:20:29.000 Huh?

00:20:29.000 You know he'd say that, too.

00:20:31.000 What, you got negative 1,400? 1.00

00:20:32.000 Asshole! 1.00

00:20:34.000 Oh, look, a blank screen on CNN. 0.99

00:20:36.000 That's not our technical difficulty, just to be clear.

00:20:38.000 No, not us.

00:20:39.000 Oh, I think this means that they're bringing it in.

00:20:40.000 Let's see.

00:20:41.000 All right, let's look at their stinger. 1.00

00:20:42.000 Wow.

00:20:43.000 Does he have live intro music?

00:20:46.000 No. 1.00

00:20:46.000 Shit. 1.00

00:20:49.000 Give me a little more judiciary acquisition we can hear. 1.00

00:20:51.000 Welcome to New Hampshire, the first GOP primary state.

00:20:54.000 We're live here at St. Anselm College for CNN's Town Hall with former president Donald Trump.

00:20:59.000 I'm Kaitlin Collins.

00:21:00.000 He's here from the back room.

00:21:01.000 This president is here to begin.

00:21:03.000 Unlike any other in the history of US presidential elections.

00:21:06.000 He's the first president in more than a century to seek a return to the White House.

00:21:11.000 And he is currently leading the Republican field while also facing multiple criminal investigations and an indictment.

00:21:17.000 Just yesterday he was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation.

00:21:21.000 No questions are off the table, and we agree to no conditions.

00:21:25.000 We're here to get voters the answers that they deserve.

00:21:28.000 Our audience is made up of Republicans and undeclared voters who plan to take part in the campaign.

00:21:34.000 He's asking a question.

00:21:35.000 It's a New Hampshire guy.

00:21:36.000 I know.

00:21:36.000 Please voters and the issues that they care about there's a black guy. Here we go for President Trump. We'll get a

00:21:42.000 second chance. He's asking Please welcome the Republican nomination for President

00:21:48.000 Donald Trump Look look at that

00:21:55.000 He looks like he just woke up from a nap.

00:21:57.000 Do you notice he's looking at the audience and not her?

00:22:01.000 That's the dynamic that he deliberately sets up.

00:22:03.000 He answers to them, not to Harry Ford and Caitlyn Collins.

00:22:06.000 Caitlyn Collins?

00:22:07.000 Caitlyn Collins.

00:22:08.000 Caitlyn Collins.

00:22:09.000 Yes.

00:22:10.000 We've got quite a crowd.

00:22:11.000 Thank you.

00:22:12.000 President Trump, thank you for your time here tonight.

00:22:17.000 We have a great crowd here in New Hampshire, a lot of voters with a lot of questions about what your 2024 term would look like.

00:22:23.000 More of the same.

00:22:28.000 I killed it before. 0.94

00:22:28.000 Drink. 0.94

00:22:29.000 You said that you were dominating the Republican race right now, but you were also under active

00:22:33.000 federal investigation for trying to overturn the 2020 election results.

00:22:38.000 Drink.

00:22:39.000 Yeah, again.

00:22:40.000 Drink.

00:22:47.000 Again, drink.

00:22:48.000 Let me hammer. 0.81

00:22:49.000 Why should Americans put you back in the White House?

00:22:50.000 We got 12 million more votes than we had in, as you know, in 2016.

00:22:55.000 I actually say we did far better in that election.

00:22:58.000 Got the most that anybody's ever gotten as a sitting president of the United States. 1.00

00:23:04.000 I think that when you look at that result and when you look at what happened during that election, Unless you're a very stupid person, you see what happens. 1.00

00:23:12.000 A lot of the people... Is that counted as an insult? 1.00

00:23:14.000 That's insulting the host.

00:23:15.000 No wait, that's insulting the host.

00:23:17.000 That's drink the whole thing.

00:23:18.000 Most people understand what happened.

00:23:19.000 I can't do that yet.

00:23:20.000 Five minutes in!

00:23:21.000 It's a shame that we had to go through it.

00:23:23.000 It's very bad for our country.

00:23:24.000 All over the world they looked at it.

00:23:26.000 And they saw exactly what everyone else saw.

00:23:28.000 You look, even if you just look recently, with the 51 intelligence agents, that made a 16-point difference.

00:23:34.000 If you look at the FBI... But, Mr. President... If you look at the FBI... Don't interrupt.

00:23:38.000 He paused for a second, then decided, no, I'm not gonna.

00:23:41.000 Mr. President, back to what you just said there, though.

00:23:44.000 It was not a rigged election.

00:23:46.000 It was not a stolen election.

00:23:48.000 You and your supporters lost more than 60 court cases on the election.

00:23:52.000 It's been nearly two and a half years.

00:23:54.000 Can you publicly acknowledge that you did lose the 2020 election?

00:23:56.000 He's not going to do that.

00:23:58.000 If you look at Truth or Vote, they found millions of votes on camera,

00:24:02.000 on government cameras, where they were stuffing ballot boxes.

00:24:06.000 So, with all of that, I think it's a shame that what happened.

00:24:09.000 I think it's a very sad thing for our country.

00:24:11.000 I think it's a very sad thing, frankly, for the world.

00:24:13.000 Because if you look at what's gone to our country, our country has gone to hell.

00:24:16.000 Our borders are bad. 0.94

00:24:18.000 Our military has been bad.

00:24:20.000 You look at the taxes.

00:24:21.000 You look at inflation.

00:24:22.000 What's happened to inflation?

00:24:24.000 It's just destroying our country.

00:24:25.000 It's really inflated.

00:24:26.000 We've really become, in many ways, a third world country.

00:24:29.000 And it's very sad what's happening in this administration.

00:24:31.000 This is a strong start for him.

00:24:33.000 Yeah.

00:24:33.000 He's not done.

00:24:33.000 No, he's not.

00:24:34.000 He's coming out and he's setting the pace right now where he's listing his accomplishments.

00:24:37.000 That contrast is really valuable.

00:24:38.000 And that way, he can't allow her to just tilt it.

00:24:40.000 Right away she tried to go, oh, election. 0.94

00:24:42.000 No, he's not. He's coming out, he's setting the pace right now where he's listing his accomplishments,

00:24:47.000 that contrast is really valuable, and that way he can't allow her to just tilt it right away to try

00:24:52.000 to go, oh, election, and he didn't, okay. But what you just said there, Republican

00:24:57.000 officials debunked those claims about fraudulent ballots.

00:25:00.000 We want to give you a chance tonight.

00:25:03.000 Who? Republican officials in Georgia and every single state.

00:25:07.000 There is no, your own election officials, Mr. President. So we wanted to

00:25:10.000 give you a chance.

00:25:10.000 We're afraid to take on the issue, but we have a big problem in this country. We have elections.

00:25:16.000 We have elections that were horrible. If Ron DeSantis doesn't take on election integrity.

00:25:21.000 He has not a chance.

00:25:22.000 Calling it right now.

00:25:23.000 This is what people want.

00:25:25.000 people may try and gaslight you.

00:25:27.000 ♪♪ ♪♪

00:25:49.000 ...that you're making tonight from voters on this topic.

00:25:52.000 I want to bring in Scott Dustin from Concord.

00:25:54.000 He works in insurance litigation.

00:25:56.000 He's an undeclared voter. 0.96

00:25:58.000 Oh, gross! 0.90

00:26:00.000 Someone get him some iodine.

00:26:02.000 Scott, what's your question for the president?

00:26:04.000 Hi, President Trump. Welcome back to New Hampshire.

00:26:06.000 Thank you.

00:26:08.000 Will you suspend polarizing talk of election fraud during your run for president?

00:26:12.000 No!

00:26:13.000 Will I suspend...

00:26:14.000 Come on.

00:26:15.000 Will you suspend polarizing talk of election fraud during your run for president?

00:26:22.000 I talk to Republicans, by the way, conservatives every day.

00:26:25.000 Never once would I expect to hear them say, will you suspend polarizing election talk?

00:26:30.000 Right, exactly.

00:26:31.000 By the way, it's also January 6th, so drink.

00:26:32.000 We have our first fact check, actually, if we can get a fact check really quickly here.

00:26:37.000 So, 50 of those 60 cases were dismissed before being heard, not lost.

00:26:42.000 That's what Caitlin said, you lost 60 cases.

00:26:45.000 50, that was great, good job research team.

00:26:47.000 50, thrown out, or not even Going to trial.

00:26:50.000 Not even being heard.

00:26:50.000 Just dismissed.

00:26:51.000 They didn't even go through the trouble of changing a statute of limitations and changing the law so they could extend it.

00:26:56.000 That takes planning.

00:26:57.000 With sexual battery.

00:26:59.000 By the way, I do believe he commits sexual battery, this guy, because he keeps going and going and going.

00:27:03.000 Let's go to the next one.

00:27:06.000 Oh, they're going to a break.

00:27:08.000 Oh no, they're not.

00:27:08.000 Never mind.

00:27:09.000 Just a fake aerial shot for no reason.

00:27:10.000 Hey, I guess he had a good answer.

00:27:12.000 It's called a crane shot.

00:27:13.000 Do you stand by those comments?

00:27:15.000 No, no.

00:27:16.000 You were able to do certain things.

00:27:17.000 I'm not talking about terminating the Constitution.

00:27:19.000 I'm talking about cherishing the Constitution.

00:27:22.000 The Constitution says that we're supposed to have legal and well-maintained and well-looked-at elections, and we didn't have that.

00:27:31.000 I cherish our Constitution, but we have to live up to the Constitution.

00:27:35.000 We weren't living up to the Constitution.

00:27:38.000 I was just saying, there's no evidence of that election fraud.

00:27:40.000 You didn't once tweet... You're supposed to say that, but... That was a horrible election.

00:27:45.000 That was a horrible election. 1.00

00:27:48.000 And unless somebody is very stupid, and I know you very well, you're not stupid at all, but you perhaps are given an agenda or you have an agenda. 1.00

00:27:56.000 Look, we have to have honest elections in our country. 1.00

00:28:00.000 We have open borders, we have...

00:28:02.000 APPLAUSE You look at what's happening, I mean we have...

00:28:08.000 That white guy in the vest looked pissed.

00:28:10.000 Look at what's happening on the border. 0.87

00:28:12.000 Tegetor! 0.99

00:28:14.000 Take it to him!

00:28:15.000 They're being released from prisons, they're being released from mental institutions and we have millions of people pouring into our country and now they're getting rid of title 42 which I put on which kept people out that were sick and And Mr. President, we have a lot of questions about immigration to get to tonight.

00:28:31.000 Obviously, that's a big topic, especially given what's expected to happen tomorrow.

00:28:35.000 But I want to talk about the influence you have over your voters.

00:28:38.000 It's very clear that you are very influential over them.

00:28:40.000 You have a lot of impact.

00:28:41.000 I've been to many of your rallies and seen it up close, which raised a lot of questions about the influence that we saw that you had on them on January 6th and your support of the attack on Capitol.

00:28:50.000 I need more!

00:28:54.000 Brian needs more red wine.

00:28:55.000 It was the largest crowd I've ever spoken to that was prior to the walk down to the Capitol building.

00:29:01.000 We can't all count it in one, right?

00:29:02.000 No.

00:29:03.000 Got to do it again?

00:29:04.000 Send in our new intern because of Title 42. 0.91

00:29:07.000 It was the largest crowd I've ever spoken to.

00:29:10.000 That was prior to the walk down to the Capitol building.

00:29:14.000 I don't think, and I've spoken to hundreds of thousands of people.

00:29:18.000 I've never spoken to a crowd as large as this.

00:29:20.000 And that was because they thought the election was rigged.

00:29:23.000 And they were there proud.

00:29:25.000 They were there with love in their heart.

00:29:27.000 That was an unbelievable and it was a beautiful day.

00:29:31.000 And what I was asked to do, I wasn't involved in it very much.

00:29:34.000 I was asked to come in.

00:29:35.000 Would I make a speech?

00:29:36.000 I made a speech.

00:29:37.000 I said, walk peacefully and patriotically.

00:29:40.000 You know, many different things.

00:29:42.000 In fact, I brought a list of things.

00:29:43.000 I don't want to bore You never hear that.

00:29:46.000 Yeah.

00:29:48.000 Calling it now, the media's gonna say, call January 6th a beautiful day.

00:29:55.000 Yeah.

00:29:56.000 They're gonna start playing Bono. 0.98

00:29:58.000 Crazy Nancy Pelosi! 1.00

00:29:59.000 Drink! 0.99

00:30:00.000 Yeah.

00:30:01.000 Really quickly, so in total, three quarters of voters said that they think some fraud occurred, right?

00:30:06.000 This poll was conducted shortly after the election, and it's a YouGov.com poll.

00:30:10.000 Ah!

00:30:11.000 I'm just saying. Three quarters thought that there was...

00:30:15.000 a crystal.

00:30:22.000 ...and soldiers. If they would have taken 500 soldiers, you'd have had a lot of money.

00:30:29.000 ...and soldiers. If they would have taken 500 soldiers, you wouldn't have had the problem.

00:30:50.000 They would have taken 500 soldiers, you wouldn't have had the problem.

00:30:53.000 They turned it down.

00:30:54.000 And if you look at the Inspector General report, he says they turned it down.

00:30:58.000 They made a terrible mistake.

00:31:00.000 Well, Chris Miller was your acting defense secretary.

00:31:02.000 He says you never gave that order.

00:31:03.000 But back to what happened on that day.

00:31:06.000 This is conducting an unbiased town hall.

00:31:10.000 She's literally refuting him.

00:31:11.000 And by the way, wrongly.

00:31:12.000 Wrongly.

00:31:13.000 She's refuting what is a matter of record with hearsay.

00:31:16.000 Well, he said this. 0.97

00:31:17.000 You want to bring up bitch Cassidy? 1.00

00:31:20.000 What was her name? 0.99

00:31:21.000 Cassidy Hutchinson?

00:31:22.000 Yes.

00:31:22.000 Oh yeah, yeah.

00:31:23.000 He said he jerked the wheel.

00:31:25.000 I said, really?

00:31:25.000 Were you there?

00:31:26.000 Well, I wasn't in the car.

00:31:27.000 I wasn't in the next zip code, but you know.

00:31:29.000 Look what he's reaching in his pocket.

00:31:30.000 Alright, he has a list of things he said.

00:31:31.000 Here we go, here we go.

00:31:33.000 Hey look, Weasley.

00:31:34.000 He's got props.

00:31:35.000 Uh oh, what's he doing here?

00:31:38.000 On January 5th, the day before, I said, please support our Capitol Police and law enforcement.

00:31:44.000 They are truly on the side of our country.

00:31:46.000 Stay peaceful.

00:31:48.000 Stay peaceful.

00:31:48.000 This was the day before, and this was in the form of Twitter.

00:31:52.000 Now use Truth.

00:31:53.000 Truth Social.

00:31:54.000 I think it's far superior.

00:31:55.000 I hope everybody's on Truth.

00:31:57.000 I hope everybody's on Truth.

00:31:59.000 If you look, January 6th, at 2.30.

00:32:03.000 I am asking for everyone at the U.S.

00:32:05.000 Capitol to remain peaceful.

00:32:07.000 This is right after, as it was happening.

00:32:10.000 But what happened is they took it down.

00:32:13.000 I don't know why.

00:32:14.000 I think they took it down because it was so good they didn't like it being up there.

00:32:20.000 And we didn't know until I got it back, because now I have 90 million people waiting for me to go back.

00:32:25.000 But I'm on truth and I'm staying on truth.

00:32:28.000 Bring it in, guys.

00:32:28.000 We need some wine and we need a beer for Steve.

00:32:31.000 Let's go!

00:32:31.000 He's so white.

00:32:32.000 I think I was.

00:32:33.000 Alright everybody, drink.

00:32:34.000 I'm gonna refill.

00:32:35.000 I'm gonna refill.

00:32:36.000 I need my refill.

00:32:37.000 Bring it in, bring it in guys.

00:32:38.000 We need some wine and we need a beer for Steve.

00:32:40.000 I guess no one's paying attention.

00:32:41.000 Let's go.

00:32:42.000 I'd like my wine please.

00:32:43.000 I'm good.

00:32:44.000 Mr. President, I looked at the same timeline that you did.

00:32:47.000 Once it was clear... No, no, but you didn't report that.

00:32:49.000 You know why?

00:32:49.000 Because it was taken down.

00:32:50.000 We did report it.

00:32:51.000 I was reporting that taken down.

00:32:52.000 It was taken down.

00:32:52.000 But when it was clear to you that they were not being peaceful, you saw them rushing the Capitol, breaking windows, they were hitting officers with flag poles, tasing them, beating them up.

00:33:02.000 When it was clear they weren't being peaceful, Why did you wait three hours to tell them to leave the Capitol?

00:33:08.000 You already told them to be peaceful before that.

00:33:11.000 That's why.

00:33:11.000 They do.

00:33:12.000 I agree with that.

00:33:13.000 But Nancy Pelosi and the mayor are in charge. 0.99

00:33:17.000 I assume they were able to do their job.

00:33:18.000 They weren't.

00:33:19.000 Think of the standard.

00:33:20.000 He preemptively said be peaceful.

00:33:22.000 Then he's out there giving it.

00:33:23.000 He asked for them to increase the Capitol Police.

00:33:26.000 He made the request.

00:33:27.000 Then he's out there and they're saying, why didn't you do it right then?

00:33:30.000 We didn't know it was going on on the ground, by the way.

00:33:32.000 I didn't know that Feds were going to show up and raid their own Capitol.

00:33:35.000 Why didn't you go down there in person?

00:33:37.000 Oh, what was the big clap?

00:33:39.000 Let me see what he said.

00:33:39.000 I'm sorry.

00:33:40.000 It was a beautiful video and it said, I mean, I don't want to read it all, but you have to go home now.

00:33:47.000 We have to have peace.

00:33:48.000 We have to have law and order.

00:33:50.000 We have to respect our great people of law and order.

00:33:53.000 We love the people of law and order.

00:33:55.000 We can't play into the hands of other people.

00:33:58.000 We have to have peace.

00:34:00.000 Please go home.

00:34:01.000 I said that.

00:34:02.000 You know what they did?

00:34:03.000 They took that down.

00:34:04.000 And you know, to this day, it hasn't been put up.

00:34:07.000 And the reason is it's so good and so conclusive that all of this nonsense and all of the tens of millions of dollars that have been spent are just wiped away with this one. So fact check for her.

00:34:18.000 So DC Mayor Muriel, what is it, Bowser or something like that, Bowser requested unarmed guardsmen

00:34:22.000 and said they should not help with the protests and evidence does point to Nancy Pelosi denying

00:34:27.000 those requests. Of course. From Donald Trump saying, hey, would you like guardsmen? Nope. Why

00:34:31.000 would you do that unless you were ready for something to go on? She's on record as saying no.

00:34:35.000 Yeah. Fact check.

00:34:37.000 Also, there were many feds there, so you know. 1.00

00:34:39.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:34:39.000 You know that.

00:34:40.000 You can call it a conspiracy.

00:34:42.000 By the way, all references are available at lightoffcrowder.com.

00:34:44.000 We have tons today of prep that I don't know if we'll necessarily get to because this is just a fun house as it is.

00:34:57.000 Let's continue watching this man spank her. 1.00

00:35:00.000 It's like an athletic center closet. 0.87

00:35:02.000 What?

00:35:02.000 You just give.

00:35:03.000 Talking about Ashley Babbitt now.

00:35:04.000 Good for him.

00:35:05.000 She's stumbling.

00:35:06.000 She doesn't know where to go with this.

00:35:07.000 Oh, he was bragging.

00:35:07.000 There was no good for him and he went on television to stumbling.

00:35:13.000 She doesn't know where to go with this.

00:35:14.000 The officer was not bragging about the fact that he killed her.

00:35:16.000 But one person who was at the Capitol that day, as you know, was your vice president,

00:35:20.000 Mike Pence, who says that you.

00:35:22.000 The vice president does not have the authority to reject those.

00:35:44.000 Are you ready?

00:35:45.000 Let's have this one not just now because it's interesting.

00:35:46.000 Let's keep it interesting, right?

00:35:49.000 I like Mike Pence very much.

00:35:50.000 He's a very fine man.

00:35:51.000 He's a very nice man.

00:35:52.000 He made a mistake.

00:35:53.000 His lawyer said, you cannot move.

00:35:55.000 I called him the human conveyor belt.

00:35:57.000 I said, even if the votes you mean, I talked to his lawyer, even if the votes are absolutely fraudulent, he can't say, yes, sir, he can say that.

00:36:04.000 And the Democrats played it and the rhinos played it. 0.85

00:36:07.000 And then the election was over.

00:36:09.000 They told him he couldn't do it.

00:36:10.000 And Mike said to me, I can't do it.

00:36:11.000 The lawyers told me you can't do it.

00:36:12.000 They can't do it.

00:36:13.000 But the lawyers were wrong, because right after the election, they all met the rhinos and the Democrats, and they worked out a plan to make sure that future vice presidents don't do What I said you could do.

00:36:25.000 That's not what happened.

00:36:26.000 You're referring to the Electoral Count Act.

00:36:29.000 I've read that.

00:36:30.000 There is no authority.

00:36:31.000 Legal experts, including Republicans, say that he does not have that authority, Mr. President.

00:36:35.000 But I want to move on.

00:36:36.000 Why did they change the law, then, saying that you can't do it?

00:36:39.000 They didn't change the law.

00:36:40.000 They strengthened the law because they were worried about the president's exploiting.

00:36:43.000 You could do it.

00:36:44.000 That's not what it means.

00:36:45.000 They strengthened the law because they had the right to do it.

00:36:49.000 I've missed this guy.

00:36:50.000 I think Caitlyn thought that this was going to be her coming out party and instead she's

00:36:53.000 getting run over by a tank.

00:36:56.000 Gerald, your prediction would have been right if she wasn't so caustic.

00:37:04.000 That's true.

00:37:04.000 She does come across as unlikable right now.

00:37:07.000 Just in general.

00:37:09.000 She owns no upper lip.

00:37:13.000 There's a purity to her outfit.

00:37:17.000 Yes, that's true.

00:37:18.000 It's called a lie.

00:37:19.000 It's as white as the driven snow, Stephen.

00:37:22.000 But a black heart.

00:37:24.000 I should note that your campaign paid for a recount that happened in Wisconsin.

00:37:27.000 It actually had more votes for President Biden by the end of it.

00:37:30.000 What's up about recounting?

00:37:31.000 That wasn't the problem!

00:37:34.000 Uh oh, here we go, here we go.

00:37:36.000 Here's a question.

00:37:37.000 The dead boss from Scrooge, you're next!

00:37:41.000 Go easy on the Bacardi, he always says.

00:37:43.000 There's a golf ball at his head, he's great, I love him.

00:37:47.000 I do want to get to the audience, though.

00:37:48.000 We have questions for you from the audience.

00:37:50.000 Wayne Byer is a retired attorney from North Conway.

00:37:52.000 Can I get some ibuprofen, please?

00:37:55.000 I'm laughing too much.

00:37:57.000 I bet you're gonna be like, I have a question!

00:37:59.000 What's your question for the President, Wayne?

00:38:02.000 Thank you for coming, Mr. President.

00:38:03.000 Thank you, Wayne.

00:38:05.000 My question to you is, will you pardon the January 6th rioters who were convicted of federal offenses?

00:38:13.000 I am inclined to pardon many of them.

00:38:16.000 I can say for every single one because a couple of them, probably they got out of control.

00:38:22.000 But, you know, when you look at Antifa, what they've done to Portland, and if you look at Antifa, look at what they've done to Minneapolis and so many other, so many other places.

00:38:32.000 Look at what they did to Seattle.

00:38:33.000 He's doing really well tonight.

00:38:34.000 He answered the question, by the way.

00:38:35.000 He answered the question clearly.

00:38:37.000 He said, for a lot of them, maybe not all of them, and then took the fight to where he's strongest.

00:38:41.000 That's the equivalent to a takedown.

00:38:42.000 He's like, you know what?

00:38:43.000 I don't want to just stick on my feet here because I'm going to try and do the stand back and stand by with the Proud Boys, so I'm going to answer it clearly and then move on to something that I know will resonate.

00:38:51.000 Look, you guys comment.

00:38:53.000 Send me your comments, Crowder Town Hall.

00:38:55.000 I think he's doing a really, really good job.

00:38:57.000 My answer is, I am most likely, if I get in, I will most likely, I would say it will be a large portion of them, you know?

00:39:05.000 They did a very... And it'll be very early on.

00:39:11.000 And they're living in hell right now.

00:39:13.000 They're living in hell.

00:39:15.000 And they're policemen, and they're firemen, and they're soldiers, and they're carpenters, and electricians, and they're great people.

00:39:22.000 Many of them are just great people.

00:39:23.000 Mr. President, one of the people who was convicted was a former policeman, but he was convicted of attacking a police officer, I should note.

00:39:30.000 But when you said you are considering pardoning a large portion Oh boy.

00:39:34.000 Told you.

00:39:34.000 Seditious conspiracy.

00:39:35.000 That's 100% true.

00:39:36.000 Does that include the four Proud Boys members who were charged and convicted of seditious conspiracy?

00:39:41.000 I don't know, I'd have to look at their case, but I will say in Washington, D.C. you cannot get a fair trial.

00:39:47.000 You cannot. Just like in New York City, you can't get a fair trial.

00:39:49.000 Hey, he took it there before she even brought it up.

00:39:53.000 Oh, that's a power move.

00:39:56.000 That's a power move.

00:39:57.000 He just slapped his wiener on the table and said, take a look!

00:40:00.000 By the way, so did the court. 0.99

00:40:02.000 You sexually abused the writer E. Jean Carroll and defamed her.

00:40:06.000 You've denied this.

00:40:07.000 But what do you say to voters?

00:40:08.000 By the way, so did the court.

00:40:10.000 Yeah.

00:40:11.000 Yeah.

00:40:12.000 My poll numbers just came out.

00:40:13.000 They went up.

00:40:14.000 I'm the only person in history who had a charge like that.

00:40:23.000 And usually you leave office.

00:40:25.000 You say, I'm sorry, but I'm going to back home.

00:40:26.000 I'm back home to my family and everything.

00:40:28.000 I'm going to be resigned.

00:40:30.000 My poll numbers went up and they went up with the other fake charge too, because what's

00:40:33.000 happening is they're doing this for.

00:40:36.000 Election interference.

00:40:37.000 This woman, I don't know her.

00:40:39.000 I never met her.

00:40:40.000 I have no idea who she is.

00:40:42.000 I had a picture taken years ago with her and her husband, nice guy, John Johnson.

00:40:46.000 By the way, she was funded by a Democrat mega-donor, just to be clear. 0.76

00:40:49.000 Reid Hoffman.

00:40:49.000 The co-founder, yep, LinkedIn, Reid Hoffman.

00:40:52.000 Anti-Trumper.

00:40:53.000 Yep.

00:40:53.000 Huge backer of Hillary Clinton, just to be clear.

00:40:55.000 And by the way, there was a deposition where she said that no one was actually paying her legal fees, so that's a lie.

00:41:01.000 That's perjury.

00:41:01.000 That would be important, you would think.

00:41:04.000 And there was a bunch of foul play there.

00:41:05.000 I think the most important of which is the fact that they changed the statute of limitations, that he committed no sexual assault. 0.93

00:41:10.000 It's battery, which means any kind of touching that's unwanted, let's hear Caitlin Collins try and bullshit away. 0.99

00:41:14.000 No, I don't think so, because I think the whole thing, just so you understand, ready?

00:41:20.000 I never met this woman.

00:41:22.000 I never saw this woman.

00:41:24.000 This woman said I met her at the front door of Bergdorf Goodman, which I rarely go into other than for a couple of charities.

00:41:31.000 I met her in the front door.

00:41:33.000 She was about 60 years older.

00:41:34.000 This is like 22, 23 years ago.

00:41:37.000 I met her in the front door of Bergdorf Goodman.

00:41:39.000 I was immediately attracted to her and she was immediately attracted to me.

00:41:43.000 And we had this great chemistry.

00:41:46.000 We're walking into a crowded department store.

00:41:48.000 We had this great chemistry.

00:41:50.000 And a few minutes later, we end up in a room, a dressing room of Bergdorf Goodman, right near the cash register.

00:41:57.000 And then she found out there are locks on the door.

00:41:59.000 So she said, I found one that was open.

00:42:01.000 She found one.

00:42:02.000 She learned this at trial.

00:42:03.000 She found one that was open.

00:42:04.000 Kind of a woman.

00:42:06.000 Meet somebody.

00:42:07.000 And brings him up and within minutes you're playing hanky-panky in a dressing room, okay?

00:42:12.000 I don't know if she was married then or not.

00:42:14.000 John Johnson, I feel sorry for you, John Johnson.

00:42:19.000 He's gotta be careful, he's gotta be careful here.

00:42:24.000 Just so you understand, if I was walking in, because I was very famous then, and I owned the Plaza Hotel right next door and I owned buildings around it.

00:42:32.000 I'm not going into a dressing room of a crowded department store.

00:42:37.000 Then I say, if she was being raped, and by the way, they said she wasn't raped, okay?

00:42:42.000 That was her charge. 0.98

00:42:43.000 They found that you sexually abused her.

00:42:45.000 Say what? 0.93

00:42:46.000 They said he didn't rape her.

00:42:48.000 And I didn't do anything else either.

00:42:50.000 You know what?

00:42:50.000 Because I have no idea who the hell she is.

00:42:52.000 But, Mr. President, can I ask you, given you're recounting your version...

00:42:56.000 And I tell you this.

00:42:57.000 Are you ready?

00:42:58.000 And I swear on my children, which I never do, I have no idea who this woman is. 1.00

00:43:03.000 This is a fake story.

00:43:06.000 Made up story.

00:43:07.000 We had a horrible Clinton appointed judge. 1.00

00:43:10.000 He was horrible.

00:43:11.000 He allowed her to put everything in.

00:43:13.000 He allowed us to put nothing in.

00:43:15.000 Judge Kaplan was appointed by Clinton in 1994.

00:43:18.000 By the way, this has happened across the board with people they don't like.

00:43:22.000 They did the same thing to George W. Bush.

00:43:23.000 that you had testified. No, it wouldn't have made a difference. This was a rigged deal.

00:43:27.000 This was a... my lawyer said... Did you see the deposition? 0.97

00:43:30.000 I killed it. And by the way, I know, here's what the media wants you to believe. Oh, rigged,

00:43:35.000 oh, rigged trial. Oh, I guess everyone's ringing it against you. Maybe you're the

00:43:39.000 problem. That's the... by the way, this has happened across the board with people

00:43:42.000 they don't like. They did the same thing to George W. Bush. No one can defend themselves.

00:43:47.000 We've... yeah. I've lived it.

00:43:48.000 What happens is they pile on, and they try and make it seem as though everyone can't be wrong, but it's all coming from the same place.

00:43:54.000 Exactly.

00:43:55.000 That's what's going on right here, and that's why he's not apologizing.

00:43:57.000 Good for him.

00:43:58.000 No one can defend themselves against this kind of thing.

00:44:01.000 No.

00:44:01.000 If someone gets a story and you get nothing, and somebody says after 23 years or whatever it is, there's nothing you can do.

00:44:07.000 Right.

00:44:07.000 No.

00:44:08.000 Fix is in, man.

00:44:09.000 The fix is in.

00:44:10.000 By the way, really quickly, another fact check.

00:44:12.000 Alright, the Electoral Count Act of 2022 changed the Electoral Count Act of 1887.

00:44:16.000 It was kind of time to kind of, you know, brush that one up.

00:44:20.000 Makes it harder for Congress to challenge the state slate of electors and the VP role now is purely ceremonial.

00:44:27.000 So yes, it's a new thing.

00:44:29.000 It's a new thing.

00:44:29.000 It wasn't purely ceremonial before.

00:44:31.000 Now there's power.

00:44:33.000 To be fair, there was some argument about it, but there was argument about it enough that they said, we need to make sure there's no leeway here.

00:44:39.000 So, you can't say that he was factually incorrect when what he said was factually correct.

00:44:44.000 All references are available at LathropSkyler.com.

00:44:45.000 There certainly is a gray area, but they eliminated the gray area because they knew it.

00:44:49.000 Let's go back.

00:44:50.000 A million years.

00:44:51.000 Approximately a million years.

00:44:52.000 is perhaps a little bit longer than that.

00:44:54.000 So you stand by those comments?

00:44:55.000 I don't want to lie.

00:44:56.000 His million-year comment from the deposition.

00:44:57.000 His paleontologist would disagree.

00:44:59.000 A rich and famous person has no advantage over anyone else.

00:45:03.000 Well, you do have an advantage.

00:45:04.000 And I say unfortunately, but that's the way it is.

00:45:07.000 You said fortunately or unfortunately.

00:45:09.000 Well, fortunately or unfortunately for her.

00:45:10.000 We have a lot of audience questions to get to tonight.

00:45:12.000 I want to go back to the audience.

00:45:14.000 So let's just recap this.

00:45:15.000 Oh, hold on a second.

00:45:16.000 Let's go.

00:45:17.000 She's a Republican activist from Derry.

00:45:19.000 She was a New Hampshire delegate for you. 1.00

00:45:20.000 Love milk!

00:45:21.000 What's your question?

00:45:22.000 Big fan.

00:45:23.000 Hi, thank you so much for coming to New Hampshire to answer our questions.

00:45:27.000 My question is regarding the economy.

00:45:30.000 Over the past two years, we have seen the prices for everything skyrocket.

00:45:34.000 From food to gas to utilities and insurance costs, many people's bills are up several hundred dollars a month, including mine.

00:45:42.000 If elected president again, what is the first thing you would do to help bring down the cost to make things more affordable?

00:45:50.000 Drill, baby, drill. 1.00

00:45:54.000 Consummate politician!

00:45:55.000 Clear answer.

00:45:56.000 Wow.

00:45:58.000 No, I would say that's not a political answer.

00:46:00.000 That's practical.

00:46:01.000 They advise you to not say those things.

00:46:03.000 That's a practical answer.

00:46:03.000 Just answer with a non-answer.

00:46:05.000 That's a truthful, practical answer.

00:46:07.000 Well down to $1.87.

00:46:09.000 Actually, it fell lower than that in some cases.

00:46:10.000 So we're going to talk about gas prices.

00:46:12.000 So really quickly, guys, we actually spent a lot of money, spared no expense.

00:46:16.000 So really quickly, let's check in with our very first Biden cam and see what former Vice President Joe Biden is up to, because you know this answer.

00:46:22.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black. 0.98

00:47:00.000 Alright, and we're back. 0.94

00:47:01.000 I don't know why we spent that much money.

00:47:02.000 Could have predicted how it goes.

00:47:04.000 Let's see what Donald Trump... Is he still talking about oil?

00:47:06.000 I got you the biggest tax cuts in the history of our country.

00:47:09.000 Bigger than the Reagan cuts.

00:47:14.000 By the way, if you're watching right now, wherever you are, hit the rumble button, you can hit share, you can hit like, whatever it is, wherever you are right now, hit that.

00:47:23.000 You're good to go.

00:47:25.000 And China paid a big price. And let me tell you something.

00:47:28.000 I took in hundreds of billions of dollars in taxes from China. But prior to covid coming in

00:47:34.000 and then I rebuilt the economy again a second time. But we had prior to covid coming in as as

00:47:40.000 from China, from Wuhan, which I said it came from Wuhan. Everybody said, oh, you're wrong about

00:47:45.000 that. You're wrong. It came from Wuhan. I said it right from day one. So wrong. We had the

00:47:49.000 greatest economy in the world.

00:47:51.000 Here's the story. They made energy so high and energy is all invasive. It is massive as an

00:47:58.000 industry and as a cost. It lifted everything. If you don't, if you made donuts, if you make no

00:48:03.000 matter what you did, she might as well not be there. We had inflation, the likes of which I

00:48:08.000 guess this is off.

00:48:10.000 AOC, we actually have a quote from her, a tweet.

00:48:13.000 CNN should be ashamed of themselves.

00:48:14.000 They have lost total control of this town hall to be again manipulated into platforming election disinformation defenses of January 6th and a public attack on a sexual abuse victim this audience is cheering him on and laughing at the host.

00:48:25.000 Oh yeah, but when she tries to tweet she sees two screens.

00:48:28.000 Well that's fair.

00:48:30.000 This is why Trump will win.

00:48:38.000 There could be millions of jobs lost.

00:48:40.000 People right now are struggling, Collins.

00:48:43.000 People right now, they're so disconnected from reality.

00:48:45.000 People right now can't afford eggs, they can't afford beef.

00:48:49.000 People right now, they have their jobs available, but they're shitty jobs because half of the economy, you don't need to fact check that it's not actually half, but the point is, the economy As we knew it was fundamentally changed.

00:48:59.000 Restaurants, entertainment venues, these people have lived it.

00:49:02.000 And CNN, this is why you just hit an all-time month low in the single 100,000 range.

00:49:09.000 I think it was 132,000 was your peak primetime viewership last month because you don't acknowledge what people are living.

00:49:17.000 Because they don't know what people are living.

00:49:20.000 I think some of them don't.

00:49:21.000 I think some of them know.

00:49:22.000 And they're trying to re-engineer it anyway.

00:49:25.000 They're trying to lie anyway.

00:49:26.000 I think some of them are right.

00:49:27.000 Maybe hear a forearm girl because she's not dyed in the wool. 1.00

00:49:29.000 But she's just giving marching orders. 1.00

00:49:31.000 Come on.

00:49:32.000 She's a patsy in a white pantsuit for the higher-ups. 1.00

00:49:35.000 Yep.

00:49:35.000 Good pantsuit though.

00:49:36.000 Nancy Pelosi and they were using will violate it will do whatever they talked 1.00

00:49:41.000 a whole lot different than they do right now I say to the Republicans out there

00:49:45.000 congressman senators if they don't give you massive cuts you're gonna have to do

00:49:49.000 a default I don't believe they're going to do it before because I think the

00:49:55.000 Democrats will absolutely cave Because you don't want to have that happen.

00:49:59.000 But it's better than what we're doing right now.

00:50:01.000 Because we're spending money like drunken sailors.

00:50:05.000 So just to be clear, Mr. President, you think the U.S.

00:50:07.000 should default if the White House does not agree to the spending cuts Republicans are demanding?

00:50:11.000 We might as well do it now because you'll do it later.

00:50:13.000 He's right.

00:50:14.000 He's absolutely right.

00:50:15.000 You have to make the cut.

00:50:16.000 By the way, just to be clear, this is something that CNN was having, they were hosting this today with Biden.

00:50:20.000 He just went out and lied.

00:50:22.000 Biden just, I believe, yesterday, and then they kept running it today on a loop, he said that he's cut the deficit by $1.7 trillion, and what he tried to do is sort of, he tried to parlay that into the debt.

00:50:33.000 Look, the debt is the cumulative, which is over $30 trillion right now.

00:50:36.000 The deficit means your profits and losses, basically, on an annual basis, right?

00:50:40.000 So it's the year, the spending differential.

00:50:43.000 $3 trillion the national debt has increased since Biden took office, just to be clear.

00:50:47.000 30 trillion?

00:50:48.000 Comparing his 2022 deficit to Donald Trump's 2020 deficit, it was $1.3 trillion for Biden.

00:50:55.000 Donald Trump was $3.3 trillion.

00:50:57.000 Both presidents, by the way, spent more than they brought in.

00:50:59.000 That's a problem that he should address.

00:51:01.000 But again, a big part of it was $900 billion was a COVID bill when Donald Trump... They're always going to try and point to his last year, right, to his last portion of his presidency, because that was something that they could engineer under the basis of a pandemic.

00:51:13.000 Joe Biden is spending more money, just to be clear.

00:51:15.000 Joe Biden's plan increases spending, will increase the debt.

00:51:19.000 They don't want to address that, so they say, well, if they're... Joe Biden hasn't answered on cuts.

00:51:23.000 He answers to increase taxes.

00:51:25.000 Watch him answer the question.

00:51:26.000 Always.

00:51:26.000 He never actually answers as to what he would cut.

00:51:29.000 We don't have a tax problem.

00:51:31.000 Even if you think we do, we certainly have a spending problem.

00:51:34.000 Right.

00:51:35.000 A trillion dollars is $1,000 billion.

00:51:38.000 Yeah, and if you add the reparations they want in California, it would be $430-something trillion dollars.

00:51:44.000 Just for California?

00:51:45.000 Just for California! 1.00

00:51:46.000 They'd be paid for by blacks from Uganda. 1.00

00:51:48.000 Racism is expensive! 0.99

00:51:49.000 Hey, it's Alex Keaton, Lookalike Foundation.

00:51:51.000 Hi, thank you for coming.

00:51:54.000 This is a bit of a pivot.

00:51:55.000 With gun violence and mass shootings in the news cycle recently, I'm worried that state governments and the federal government are going to act to repress gun rights.

00:52:02.000 Under your administration, you instructed the Department of Justice and the ATF to ban bump stocks.

00:52:08.000 If elected President again, how would you act not only to defend our Second Amendment rights, but to restore rights that have been taken from us?

00:52:13.000 That's a good question, and a question that a lot of Second Amendment activists would want to ask Donald Trump.

00:52:16.000 He screwed up on that one.

00:52:17.000 Let's see his answer.

00:52:18.000 Stabilizing braces.

00:52:19.000 As you know, the bump socks are actually a very unimportant thing.

00:52:22.000 And NRA, I went with them and they said, It doesn't mean anything.

00:52:25.000 Actually, all they do is teach you how to shoot very inaccurately.

00:52:29.000 So we did that.

00:52:29.000 That's what I say.

00:52:30.000 It's not a good answer, though.

00:52:31.000 No bump stocks in my team.

00:52:33.000 It's not a good answer, though, Donald Trump.

00:52:34.000 You need a better answer on that.

00:52:36.000 But we have a very big mental health problem in this country.

00:52:41.000 The broad in the pantsuit knows. 0.99

00:52:43.000 Zoloft, visit Paxil.

00:52:45.000 And we have to protect our Second Amendment rights.

00:52:47.000 We have to protect it.

00:52:48.000 He leaked his mushrooms.

00:52:50.000 Mr. President, you've dealt with a lot of mass shootings when you were in office.

00:52:52.000 This year, there have already been more than 200 mass shootings in 2023.

00:52:57.000 If you are re-elected, are there any new gun restrictions that you would sign into law?

00:53:01.000 Zero.

00:53:02.000 I would do numerous things.

00:53:03.000 For instance, schools.

00:53:05.000 We would harden, very much harden.

00:53:07.000 And I also am a very believer.

00:53:08.000 I believe in teachers.

00:53:09.000 I love teachers.

00:53:10.000 I think they're incredible.

00:53:11.000 And they love the children.

00:53:12.000 Not quite like the parents, but they love the children, in many cases, almost as much.

00:53:16.000 Many of these teachers are soldiers, ex-soldiers, ex-policemen.

00:53:20.000 They're people that really understand weapons.

00:53:21.000 And you don't need 5% of the teachers would be more than you could ever have.

00:53:25.000 Have you ever hired security guards?

00:53:27.000 But in addition to that have security guards, you have to harden your entrances, you have to make schools safe, and you can make other places safe, but it is a big mental health problem in this country more than anything else.

00:53:40.000 And remember, we have 700 million guns.

00:53:44.000 700 million.

00:53:45.000 By the way, this is kind of remedial for you, I think we're breaking, we have some new Tucker Carlson bombshell.

00:53:51.000 Oh yeah, yeah, those did just come in.

00:53:52.000 That's right. Yeah, absolutely. That's right.

00:53:54.000 Let me see here. What is a Do we know what the Tucker... Do you have it, Hootie? 0.58

00:54:03.000 The latest Tucker bombshell.

00:54:04.000 I do.

00:54:05.000 This is breaking right now on Twitter.

00:54:09.000 Subject, Tucker Carlson's disregard for workplace sanitization.

00:54:12.000 A janitor said Mr. Tucker was tossing a ball of paper into the trash and he missed, and I could tell that he didn't intend to pick it up.

00:54:22.000 That's what's on Twitter right now?

00:54:25.000 Is there anything else that we have?

00:54:27.000 Is there anything else that we have on?

00:54:28.000 All right, well, more on that.

00:54:35.000 Hashtag Crowder Town Hall.

00:54:36.000 $10 off on Mug Club.

00:54:37.000 Let's go back to Donald Trump.

00:54:38.000 Use your wrist when you throw.

00:54:41.000 All of those places are the worst and most dangerous places.

00:54:44.000 So that's not the answer.

00:54:45.000 No new restrictions that you would sign if re-elected, Mr. President.

00:54:48.000 I want you to meet Julie Miles, a registered nurse from Merrimack.

00:54:51.000 She's a Republican who voted for you in 2012.

00:54:55.000 Let me try and rebut you before I go to the question from the person who asked that.

00:54:58.000 I appreciate you answering this question this evening.

00:54:59.000 How do you plan to appeal to women voters in New Hampshire who are concerned about the Dobbs decision and how states may change their laws?

00:55:06.000 It's such a great question and it was such a great victory and people are starting to understand it now.

00:55:13.000 You know that they wanted to bring it back to the states but that was probably the least important part of that victory.

00:55:19.000 Getting rid of Roe v. Wade was an incredible thing for pro-life because it gave pro-life 0.89

00:55:25.000 something to negotiate with.

00:55:26.000 Pro-life had absolutely nothing being stuck in Roe v. Wade to negotiate with.

00:55:31.000 And now what's happening, and I see it all over, deals are being made, deals are going to be made.

00:55:37.000 And look, everybody that was president wanted to get rid and tried to get rid of Roe v. Wade.

00:55:44.000 You mean Republicans?

00:55:45.000 For 50 years, Republicans.

00:55:47.000 For 50 years, this has been going on.

00:55:49.000 Actually, a couple of Democrats, too. 0.99

00:55:50.000 But for 50 years... Also, by the way, Caitlin, it doesn't affect you if you're not a whore. 1.00

00:55:55.000 If you're not a whore, this doesn't concern you. 0.99

00:55:57.000 You're concerned. 0.99

00:55:58.000 She can look at her face, she's concerned. 1.00

00:55:59.000 A whore! 1.00

00:56:00.000 A filthy whore! 1.00

00:56:01.000 Alright. 1.00

00:56:01.000 Even the exceptions, the life of the mother, rape, incest, like Ronald Reagan believed in the exceptions. 1.00

00:56:07.000 But I happen to believe that.

00:56:08.000 I think it I think it's frankly important to do that.

00:56:11.000 But a lot of people are, you know, against that a relatively small, relatively small number.

00:56:17.000 But the way the way I look, I think it's very important to say this.

00:56:20.000 I consider the other side to be radical because the other side under Roe v. Wade and other things, the other side, they're radical because they will Remember the debate with Hillary Clinton?

00:56:30.000 They said, rip the baby out of the womb at the end of the ninth month. 0.93

00:56:34.000 They will kill the baby in the ninth month. 0.98

00:56:37.000 If you look at that crazy governor of Virginia from the former governor, where he said, no, the baby will be born and then we'll decide, essentially, whether or not to execute the baby. 0.90

00:56:46.000 But Mr. President, can we talk about what you would do if you were re-elected?

00:56:51.000 But if you are re-elected and you're back in the Oval Office and you get legislation to your desk, would you sign a federal abortion ban into law?

00:56:58.000 What I'll do is negotiate so that people are happy.

00:57:01.000 But the fact that we were able, I was able, I'm so proud of it.

00:57:04.000 We put three great justices on the Supreme Court.

00:57:06.000 We have almost 300 federal judges.

00:57:12.000 Here's the lesson to anyone else who's going to throw their hat in the ring.

00:57:16.000 Caitlin Collins doesn't matter. 0.97

00:57:18.000 You're not talking to her.

00:57:19.000 I've said this many times.

00:57:20.000 We've done Change My Minds.

00:57:22.000 We've done countless Change My Minds.

00:57:23.000 Billions of plays.

00:57:24.000 And then we've also done debates on the show.

00:57:25.000 It becomes harder and harder to do as people don't necessarily want to have these conversations across the aisle.

00:57:30.000 Unless, of course, you're talking about every single Twitter egg.

00:57:32.000 But here's the thing.

00:57:33.000 You need to recognize the difference between Minds You Can Change and people who are so bought into the lie, they have to propagate it.

00:57:39.000 That's CNN.

00:57:40.000 That's Caitlin Collins.

00:57:41.000 And Donald Trump, for the first time, at least in recent memory, he's identifying the difference.

00:57:46.000 He's identifying maybe people who have questions that aren't coming straight from the right in a town hall.

00:57:51.000 He's identifying, okay, this is someone who maybe is open to what I have to say.

00:57:54.000 This is someone who has ears to hear.

00:57:56.000 She doesn't matter.

00:57:58.000 Don't cater to the media.

00:57:59.000 Bypass them.

00:58:00.000 You don't have to cater to them anymore.

00:58:02.000 This is a masterclass in bypassing gatekeepers.

00:58:05.000 To piggyback on that, would you say he's the first candidate in the history of this country that will actually benefit from how unfairly he's treated by the media?

00:58:14.000 The harder they go, the more his ratings will jump because Americans, no matter where they are, like fair play.

00:58:22.000 And when they see a violation of fair play, they kind of instead And you know what they really hate?

00:58:26.000 They really hate being fooled.

00:58:27.000 And I think with Donald Trump, they realize, you know what, we were fooled with a lot of this.

00:58:30.000 Propaganda.

00:58:31.000 Yeah, I think that's a good point.

00:58:32.000 I think he has a valuable tool at his disposal.

00:58:34.000 This is great for the country and what's fair for the country.

00:58:37.000 But the fact that I was able to terminate Roe v. Wade after 50 years of trying.

00:58:42.000 They worked for 50 years.

00:58:44.000 I've never seen anything like it.

00:58:45.000 They work.

00:58:46.000 And I was even so honored to have done it.

00:58:48.000 We are in a very good negotiating position right now only because of what I was able to do.

00:58:54.000 And remember this again.

00:58:56.000 You talk about radicalism.

00:58:58.000 People that will kill a baby in the 9th month, or the 8th month, or the 7th month, or after the baby is born, they're the radicals, not the pro-electors.

00:59:09.000 Did the same thing with Antifa?

00:59:10.000 Did the same thing with abortion?

00:59:11.000 Brilliant. Let me hear what she has to say.

00:59:13.000 You cannot answer whether or not you've signed a federal abortion ban

00:59:15.000 or how many weeks into pregnancy you believe abortion should be banned.

00:59:19.000 Can you answer either of those tonight?

00:59:21.000 I've given you the answer probably four times already.

00:59:23.000 They've never, they've never forced a Democrat to answer for when there is a limit to terminating pregnancy.

00:59:28.000 Because every, just to be clear, while we're talking about one thing that Donald Trump missed,

00:59:32.000 while we're talking about the radicals, people say, oh, the extreme left, the extreme right,

00:59:35.000 right, this is my left, your right, I have to do the stage terms.

00:59:38.000 Here's the thing.

00:59:39.000 Every single person who has run for the Democratic nomination in the last two elections And other Republican presidents, and others by the way, they wanted to get it out.

00:59:58.000 They also wanted to bring it back to the states.

01:00:00.000 But bringing it back to the states is a less important issue than the issue that we just talked about.

01:00:05.000 That's what Frank Stallone said!

01:00:06.000 Take it back to the states! 0.97

01:00:07.000 Take it back! 0.77

01:00:08.000 Do-do-do-do! 0.57

01:00:10.000 By the trash can, he said.

01:00:12.000 Is that what he was singing about?

01:00:13.000 That's what he was singing about!

01:00:14.000 I didn't know that!

01:00:16.000 If that bell rings and I'm still standing, I always say... So pathetic. 0.99

01:00:20.000 I always say have the baby anyway. 0.97

01:00:23.000 Alright, really quickly, as they're about to go to a commercial break, we spared no expense and I believe that we sent somewhere here, I want to make sure that I have this right, that he's set up and he's ready to go.

01:00:34.000 Thomas Finnegan is actually, yep, we have Thomas Finnegan.

01:00:37.000 We sent him down to the town hall on the ground for the commercial break.

01:00:40.000 Let's go down there and get a minute.

01:00:54.000 It doesn't look like things have kicked off yet, but I'm glad to be here early to catch all of the action as it unfolds.

01:00:54.000 Hi, Steven.

01:01:01.000 Where are you?

01:01:02.000 I'm at the Town Hall, of course.

01:01:04.000 Yeah, but where are you?

01:01:07.000 I'm at the Town Hall in the Hamptons.

01:01:11.000 No, no, for the love of, for the love of God, Thomas, you're supposed to be at the town hall in New Hampshire.

01:01:16.000 It's politics.

01:01:17.000 We're doing politics.

01:01:17.000 Donald Trump, presidential town hall in New Hampshire.

01:01:19.000 Go there now!

01:01:20.000 Go there!

01:01:21.000 Go! 0.95

01:01:22.000 Quick, we're gonna go to, hold on a second, you have a fact check I guess, but really

01:02:03.000 So something that's a little bit more regular.

01:02:04.000 Live fact check for the Crowder Town Hall.

01:02:06.000 Give it to me.

01:02:07.000 Now.

01:02:10.000 Tweet check.

01:02:11.000 Fact check.

01:02:12.000 Trump.

01:02:12.000 Fact check.

01:02:13.000 Fact check.

01:02:13.000 Tweet.

01:02:15.000 News!

01:02:17.000 There we go.

01:02:17.000 Alright, so, nonpartisan committee for a responsible federal budget.

01:02:21.000 The U.S.

01:02:21.000 national debt will balloon by nearly $20 trillion over the next decade under the spending outlined by President Biden in his $6.9 trillion budget proposal.

01:02:29.000 That's a lot of nuts!

01:02:30.000 But it's somebody else's money!

01:02:33.000 Well, if you put it over 10 years, it doesn't matter.

01:02:35.000 Also, mass shootings were lower under Donald Trump by almost half.

01:02:40.000 I don't know why she was asking him questions about Biden's policies that have led to more mass shootings because his mass shooting numbers were far lower. 1.00

01:02:47.000 I can answer that because, excuse me, she's a lying whore. 1.00

01:02:53.000 If I had to answer that, I would never say that by the way. 0.99

01:02:55.000 I think she's very nice, but that's what people tell me.

01:02:57.000 You don't know my body count. 1.00

01:02:59.000 She lies and she's a whore. 1.00

01:03:00.000 Liar, whore, liar, whore, and you know it! 1.00

01:03:02.000 That's true. 1.00

01:03:03.000 Thank you, I was buying time.

01:03:04.000 Okay, go ahead, Joe.

01:03:06.000 No, I think that summarizes some of the fact checks that we're working on right now.

01:03:10.000 And by the way, I just want to add an answer to the abortion question.

01:03:13.000 My policy on abortion is no.

01:03:17.000 No.

01:03:17.000 Would you sign a federal ban?

01:03:18.000 I don't want to sign a federal ban.

01:03:19.000 I want that to be a state power issue.

01:03:21.000 I want that to be in the state's hands and I want the state's hand To be moved by the people to do the right thing.

01:03:28.000 That's what I want.

01:03:28.000 Right.

01:03:29.000 I don't want federal overreach in stuff like this, even when I think it's something that benefits me.

01:03:34.000 I want it to be in the hands of the state.

01:03:36.000 I think Donald Trump should say that.

01:03:38.000 He didn't.

01:03:39.000 He said that was a less important issue.

01:03:40.000 I disagree with that.

01:03:41.000 I think states having the ability to decide this stuff is very important because that's exactly what the Supreme Court struck down.

01:03:47.000 That's also what a republic is, right?

01:03:49.000 Yes.

01:03:50.000 I have to go use the uh the little boys room so let's really quickly let's check in really quickly uh and then I'll be back you guys can uh and then you can go after me.

01:04:00.000 So again we spared no expense uh for the second time do we have the cameras live at the Biden former vice president Biden White House.

01:04:06.000 Okay check it.

01:04:07.000 And if you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black. 0.95

01:04:11.000 Uhhhhhh... 0.95

01:04:12.000 HMMM?!

01:04:13.000 My butt needs wiped! 0.99

01:04:20.000 Put it on backwards this time. 1.00

01:04:30.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black. 0.98

01:04:34.000 Alright, bringing him back. 0.98

01:04:36.000 By the way, you can't see it, but she's taking a lot of body blows here. 1.00

01:04:40.000 This has been a little bit rough for Caitlin Collins.

01:04:43.000 Thank you very much for that.

01:04:45.000 Alright, let's see what the questions are.

01:04:46.000 Jennifer, what's your question tonight?

01:04:48.000 Good evening, Mr. President.

01:04:49.000 Thank you.

01:04:50.000 Title 42 is expected to expire tomorrow.

01:04:52.000 Yep.

01:04:52.000 Our southern border and now our northern border are experiencing record migration.

01:04:56.000 I wonder why.

01:04:57.000 We learned on May 2nd that the Biden administration plans on deploying 1,500 troops to the southern border.

01:05:03.000 Do you agree with deploying troops to the border, and how will a Trump administration slow down the rate of migrants coming across all our borders?

01:05:09.000 I want to see what he says here, because there's a lot of BS.

01:05:12.000 The troops are behind the scenes.

01:05:14.000 They're not on the board for me.

01:05:15.000 You're going to have tens of thousands of people pouring into our country, even the judge.

01:05:21.000 You know, the judge overruled them when they wanted to terminate it early.

01:05:23.000 And he said, you know that you better extend this thing.

01:05:26.000 The judge in Texas said, I hope you're going to train this.

01:05:30.000 But this is my policy that they're letting terminate because they lost in court.

01:05:34.000 They wanted to go earlier.

01:05:35.000 You're going to have millions of people pouring into our country right now at a level that nobody's ever seen before. 0.96

01:05:42.000 These people are sick.

01:05:43.000 Anybody that wants this to happen to our country, they're destroying our country. 0.98

01:05:48.000 We know his answer here.

01:05:49.000 This is bad, right?

01:05:50.000 So Biden already, just to give you some facts, Biden already has two times as many border encounters as Trump did during his entire time in office.

01:05:57.000 We should ask him to take the front door off his house.

01:06:00.000 We should absolutely do that, right?

01:06:01.000 So currently over 5 million encounters.

01:06:03.000 Trump's grand total for border encounters was 2.4 million.

01:06:07.000 Also, Greg Abbott, let's bring up this tweet from him.

01:06:09.000 I saw this earlier today, so great work team.

01:06:12.000 I had no idea.

01:06:13.000 No idea.

01:06:13.000 He was in a wheelchair.

01:06:14.000 I just thought he was really short. 1.00

01:06:16.000 Damn tree! 0.99

01:06:16.000 So, Greg Abbott says, great work by Texas National Guard and Texas DPS. 0.99

01:06:21.000 Biden sent 1,500 troops to the border to do paperwork.

01:06:25.000 Texas deployed trained soldiers and troopers to take real action and respond to this crisis.

01:06:29.000 So, don't be fooled by 1,500 people going to the border to do paperwork behind the scenes.

01:06:34.000 They're doing it administratively.

01:06:36.000 Do you want to hear him a little bit?

01:06:36.000 Because this is a strong issue for Donald Trump.

01:06:39.000 We have to build some more because there are areas like water going through a dam.

01:06:44.000 There are some areas where a lot of people are coming.

01:06:46.000 You close up one and they come into another.

01:06:48.000 And we started another hundred miles of wall.

01:06:52.000 In fact, I said to my people, if we start this and don't finish it, and then we had a rigged election, I'm sorry to say it.

01:06:58.000 The election was not rigged, Mr. President.

01:07:00.000 Greg, you got the horn there, Yakuza, or no?

01:07:04.000 We got a horn?

01:07:04.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right here, right here.

01:07:08.000 Drink your whole drink, we gotta get a refill.

01:07:10.000 Make mine yingling, because I can't handle these Belgians. 1.00

01:07:13.000 They're high alcohol.

01:07:15.000 Look, a country has to have borders.

01:07:18.000 True.

01:07:19.000 There's never been anything like this happening to our country.

01:07:21.000 You built about 52 miles of new wall when you were in office, Mr. President.

01:07:26.000 It wasn't the complete wall.

01:07:28.000 One other thing that with immigration, with your immigration, it was only about 52 miles of new wall.

01:07:33.000 This is what she does.

01:07:35.000 Yeah!

01:07:36.000 I built some pieces of wood myself.

01:07:38.000 Some of the wall was up there and it would be laying in the ground, rusted rotten steel,

01:07:42.000 rusted rotten wood.

01:07:45.000 And what the radical left crazy Democrats did, if there's a piece of wood laying down,

01:07:49.000 they considered that a wall.

01:07:50.000 That's a wall.

01:07:51.000 I built 30 foot walls that go down seven feet into the ground.

01:07:55.000 If there was a little piece of wood sitting in the ground, they said, oh, he's not building

01:07:59.000 We already had a wall.

01:08:00.000 Because this is the game.

01:08:01.000 They're a party of disinformation.

01:08:03.000 It's not a game, Mr. President.

01:08:05.000 It's about 52 miles of new wall.

01:08:06.000 What other immigration policy did you have when you were in office?

01:08:09.000 I built new wall.

01:08:10.000 I built new wall.

01:08:10.000 52 miles of furniture.

01:08:11.000 For hundreds of miles.

01:08:11.000 CBP, Mr. President.

01:08:12.000 What I did is I replaced other wall that was laying down, that was up and rotting in the ground for 30 years.

01:08:19.000 Some of it was steel that you couldn't even see.

01:08:20.000 Mr. President, it was only about 52 miles of new wall.

01:08:23.000 Moving on, another immigration policy you had was the zero tolerance immigration policy that separated families at the border.

01:08:28.000 If you are re-elected, are you ruling out...

01:08:30.000 Oh, that is insane.

01:08:31.000 When you have that clear, and I don't thank you very much.

01:08:35.000 And by the way, please send in your love for the team that's helped put this on here tonight.

01:08:38.000 No, that's the Flores consent policy from 1997, which by the way, so that you could

01:08:42.000 not detain children for more than 20 days.

01:08:45.000 Okay.

01:08:46.000 This is why Barack Obama actually ended up starting to separate children with their parents

01:08:50.000 because he saw keeping children as a deterrent from people coming in over the border.

01:08:54.000 The Flores consent policy 1997 signed under Bill Clinton was about children being detained

01:08:59.000 at the border, just to be clear.

01:09:02.000 And by the way, this is one thing that was a huge point of contention during the debate, was who built the cages, Joe?

01:09:07.000 Let's see what he has to say. 1.00

01:09:08.000 She's full of crap. 1.00

01:09:09.000 The city is being swamped. 1.00

01:09:11.000 Los Angeles is being swamped.

01:09:13.000 I'm pretty sure I'm right about 99% of it.

01:09:15.000 The whole country is being destroyed.

01:09:18.000 Millions of people are coming into our country.

01:09:20.000 And you know what the number is going to be, in my opinion, by the end of the year?

01:09:23.000 Not the 4 million that you hear and the 3 million.

01:09:26.000 I think it's going to be 15 million people.

01:09:28.000 And in these people, they have no idea where they come from.

01:09:31.000 They come from 129 different countries so far.

01:09:33.000 120, not just the four that we talked about.

01:09:35.000 Mr. President, just to put a button on that, it sounds like what you're saying is that you're not ruling out re-implementing that immigration policy.

01:09:41.000 I want to get to another voter.

01:09:42.000 Kaitlan Boissoneau is a student here.

01:09:44.000 She always has to get the last word in. 0.90

01:09:47.000 Nothing like perpetuating a negative stereotype, white lady. 1.00

01:09:50.000 Hello President Trump, thank you so much for coming.

01:09:53.000 The current administration has made it clear that we should continue to provide military equipment to Ukraine so that they can defend themselves.

01:10:01.000 Do you support this decision and how would you deal with the increasing threat posed by Vladimir Putin?

01:10:07.000 First of all, thank you very much.

01:10:09.000 It's really nice.

01:10:09.000 I would have never let it happen.

01:10:10.000 It's an important question.

01:10:11.000 So important.

01:10:12.000 Because we're giving away so much equipment.

01:10:14.000 We don't have ammunition for ourselves right now.

01:10:17.000 We don't have ammunition for ourselves.

01:10:18.000 We're giving away so much.

01:10:19.000 But here's the thing.

01:10:20.000 I have to say it to start off.

01:10:22.000 No longer matters.

01:10:23.000 If I were president, this would have never happened.

01:10:25.000 And even the Democrats admit that.

01:10:27.000 Putin knew it would have never happened, and his pipeline would have never happened.

01:10:31.000 A lot of things would have never happened, but this was never happened.

01:10:35.000 And all those dead people, Russians and Ukrainians, they wouldn't be dead today.

01:10:41.000 And all those cities that are blown up and disintegrated right to the ground, that wouldn't have happened.

01:10:46.000 You know what I love that Donald Trump does?

01:10:48.000 What he does, because everyone knows here, everyone knows the Ukraine answer.

01:10:52.000 So we have a little bit of a... I love that Donald Trump will answer with specificity tonight.

01:10:56.000 Here's what he'll do.

01:10:56.000 He'll answer with specificity.

01:10:57.000 He'll disabuse people of a certain notion that the moderator, or the conductor, whatever you want to call her, tries to instill in the audience.

01:11:05.000 and then he drives it home with something unrelated but also leaves a mark like

01:11:08.000 there was tons of dead wood and everywhere this is what happened i

01:11:11.000 replaced it they say 52 this is the game that they play they didn't want to fund

01:11:15.000 it he'll go through it and then be like termites And then go back.

01:11:19.000 Just so, and then people remember that.

01:11:21.000 That's right.

01:11:21.000 And he's very good at it.

01:11:23.000 It's called anchoring.

01:11:24.000 Yes, exactly.

01:11:25.000 He's a technical terminator.

01:11:26.000 I don't know any Democrats who have said that.

01:11:28.000 May 11th through 13th, New Brunswick, New Jersey.

01:11:30.000 Her question is, would you continue to give Ukraine money and weapons if you're elected?

01:11:35.000 What's the answer?

01:11:35.000 I have a very good relationship with President Zelensky because, as you know, he backed me up with the phony impeachment.

01:11:43.000 Impeachment hoax number one.

01:11:45.000 The perfect call.

01:11:47.000 The president didn't do anything wrong.

01:11:48.000 So I happened to like, so I happened to like, yeah, that's right.

01:11:52.000 And it was I was totally exonerated, by the way, just a waste of time.

01:11:56.000 He goes, don't side profile her.

01:11:59.000 It's cruel.

01:12:00.000 I'm helping you.

01:12:00.000 It's not fair to her.

01:12:02.000 Don't go to side profile, folks.

01:12:03.000 That's mean.

01:12:05.000 Mr. Drink on the impeachment comment.

01:12:08.000 Oh, drink.

01:12:09.000 I would sit down.

01:12:10.000 Let me just put it this way.

01:12:14.000 If I'm president, I will have that war settled in one day.

01:12:17.000 24 hours.

01:12:17.000 You hear what he just said?

01:12:18.000 If I'm president, I'll have that war settled in one day. 0.61

01:12:21.000 That's the answer.

01:12:22.000 That's the answer.

01:12:23.000 I'll solve the problem.

01:12:24.000 I've talked about this.

01:12:25.000 Ukraine is a perfect example. 0.98

01:12:27.000 He had eight years of Obama, then he had three years of Donald Trump.

01:12:29.000 One last year was engineered, of course.

01:12:30.000 That's the number they try to point to as far as what they try to point to as his failure for presidency is the engineered pandemic of COVID.

01:12:36.000 Um, and then you have another, after this you'll have four years of Biden.

01:12:39.000 There's a very stark contrast.

01:12:40.000 Let's talk about international policy, because the idea is this guy is just such a loose cannon that we're less safe.

01:12:45.000 Hey, what happened under, uh, Barack Obama?

01:12:47.000 Something, something, Crimea?

01:12:49.000 Oh, yeah, that's something.

01:12:51.000 Is it pronounced Crimea?

01:12:52.000 Something, something, Georgia?

01:12:54.000 And then what happened under, oh, nothing.

01:12:56.000 And then we had Ukraine afterwards, because anyone who's been in a schoolyard knows that crazy beats big every time. 0.99

01:13:02.000 You just have to be a little bit crazy.

01:13:04.000 That's right. 0.92

01:13:04.000 There's value in that. 0.92

01:13:06.000 Even Kim Jong Un, Kim Jong was going like, I don't know, I don't know this guy, I don't know what he's gonna... You forgot Syria.

01:13:11.000 That's right.

01:13:13.000 Remember, the red line.

01:13:13.000 Under Obama.

01:13:14.000 This is the red line.

01:13:15.000 And then they do it and they're like, well I mean the red line.

01:13:17.000 And it's just like they can't... It was in sand.

01:13:19.000 They can't stop.

01:13:20.000 They can't stop.

01:13:23.000 Getting it wrong.

01:13:24.000 The things they try to attack him on, people like him, and then what they try and use as this sort of fail-safe, like, yeah, but international policy.

01:13:31.000 You need someone with an even temperament.

01:13:33.000 He's proven them wrong through eight, three years, and another four.

01:13:37.000 Because the way they describe the world, the way they describe the world is not what we see in our everyday life.

01:13:42.000 It just doesn't, we're just like, I know, what are they talking about?

01:13:42.000 Right.

01:13:45.000 They think that most Americans are going, come on, you better say yes, you're gonna give money to Ukraine! 0.59

01:13:50.000 I just sound like Jim Brewer for some reason.

01:13:50.000 Yeah.

01:13:52.000 He made a tremendous mistake.

01:13:53.000 He's a smart guy.

01:13:54.000 I remember he said he was smart, she was smart.

01:13:59.000 Do you still respect him today?

01:14:02.000 He made a tremendous mistake.

01:14:03.000 He's a smart guy.

01:14:05.000 I remember I said he was smart, she was smart.

01:14:08.000 They said he said President Xi of China, right?

01:14:11.000 He's smart.

01:14:12.000 Okay, 1.5 billion people.

01:14:14.000 He's the ruler of 1.5 billion people.

01:14:17.000 I said, yeah, he's a smart guy.

01:14:18.000 How dare he say he's smart?

01:14:20.000 Of course he's smart. 1.00

01:14:21.000 They want you to say he's a stupid person. 1.00

01:14:23.000 Okay, he's not a stupid person. 1.00

01:14:24.000 He's very smart. 0.99

01:14:25.000 He's very cunning.

01:14:26.000 And Putin made a bad mistake, in my opinion.

01:14:28.000 What was his mistake?

01:14:29.000 Let me ask you something really quickly, okay?

01:14:31.000 And I'd like to see, maybe we can put, I guess we can't put this to a poll, but you can tweet me and you can use the hashtag CrowderTownHall. 0.94

01:14:37.000 Would you rather a world where Donald Trump Donald Trump starts with the presupposition that Putin and Xi Jinping are smart, or would you rather a world where former Vice President Joe Biden assumes they're dumb? 0.53

01:14:51.000 In which world are you safer? 0.98

01:14:54.000 Good question. 0.54

01:14:55.000 Because if he's going to be a war criminal where people are going to go and grab him and execute him.

01:15:00.000 You know who is smart? 0.93

01:15:01.000 Hitler. 0.57

01:15:01.000 Correct. 0.57

01:15:02.000 Doesn't mean I like him.

01:15:03.000 Right. 1.00

01:15:04.000 I think Einstein was an asshole. 1.00

01:15:06.000 Doesn't mean he's dumb. 1.00

01:15:09.000 We're settled. 0.89

01:15:11.000 And I'm not talking about the money either.

01:15:12.000 I'm talking about all the lives that have been, the number of people being killed in that war is far greater than you're hearing.

01:15:18.000 When they blow up a city and those buildings come pouring down and then they say two people were injured.

01:15:23.000 No, no.

01:15:24.000 Hundreds and thousands of people are being killed and we have to get that war settled.

01:15:29.000 We have more with former President Trump right after this.

01:15:30.000 this we're gonna take a quick break and then we'll be back with questions from...

01:15:34.000 and we have a...

01:15:35.000 Occasionally we have commercial breaks too.

01:15:36.000 We have a commercial break if you want to go to it.

01:15:38.000 No, but didn't we...

01:15:39.000 We have that...

01:15:40.000 We got a new...

01:15:41.000 We got a new intern, right?

01:15:42.000 With Title 42...

01:15:43.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:15:44.000 ...ending.

01:15:45.000 And I think we were a little preemptive.

01:15:46.000 What you did, Gerald, as CEO, he's the new CEO, might have been...

01:15:48.000 I just...

01:15:49.000 It might have been illegal, is my point.

01:15:50.000 It was my heart.

01:15:51.000 But we did want to...

01:15:52.000 We have the new intern here.

01:15:55.000 Here, yes.

01:15:56.000 Si, como estas?

01:15:57.000 Uh huh.

01:15:58.000 And we just wanted to, sometimes we like to profile people, tell them your story.

01:16:01.000 So did you, you came through, was it the golden ticket sweepstakes?

01:16:03.000 Yeah, was that it?

01:16:04.000 Oh, oh, si, I get vaccination?

01:16:07.000 Yeah, we don't, we don't know.

01:16:09.000 Yo tengo the vaccine.

01:16:09.000 Yeah, we don't care about the vaccine.

01:16:10.000 I don't think anyone here is vaccinated.

01:16:11.000 Wait, wait, wait.

01:16:12.000 That's not a prerequisite.

01:16:13.000 Nope.

01:16:13.000 But do you... Is that your resume that you sent?

01:16:15.000 That's, that's not a resume?

01:16:16.000 That's a vaccination card?

01:16:17.000 Si, si.

01:16:18.000 That vaccination card?

01:16:19.000 Oh lord.

01:16:19.000 No, but what is your experience?

01:16:21.000 How did you get the, the internship?

01:16:22.000 Right?

01:16:22.000 People want to know.

01:16:23.000 Yeah.

01:16:24.000 I crossed the border and they say okay.

01:16:27.000 Yeah, that's not... No, that's not how it works.

01:16:29.000 I'm sorry.

01:16:29.000 I may have made a mistake.

01:16:31.000 Yeah, is this... We don't care about COVID.

01:16:33.000 Do you have... Can you do research?

01:16:34.000 Can you do overlays?

01:16:36.000 More love?

01:16:37.000 Si?

01:16:37.000 Yeah, come on, you know, we'll bring him back in.

01:16:40.000 We'll bring him back in later.

01:16:41.000 Yeah, we appreciate it.

01:16:44.000 Golden ticket sweepstakes, really.

01:16:45.000 That's not my finest moment.

01:16:48.000 No, Gerald.

01:16:49.000 I'll do better. 0.99

01:16:50.000 You're a horrible CEO. 0.99

01:16:51.000 Well, most of the time. 1.00

01:16:53.000 Guys, I'm gay.

01:16:54.000 All right.

01:16:55.000 I think we do have a commercial break.

01:16:57.000 Okay, we have a brief commercial break and we'll be back after that.

01:17:40.000 It's not great, you know?

01:17:41.000 Dude, you're not supposed to do it like that.

01:17:43.000 You gotta put water in it, man.

01:17:44.000 How much have you eaten?

01:17:46.000 Um... All of them.

01:17:49.000 Oh my gosh.

01:17:54.000 Of course it's much better, man.

01:17:56.000 You know you're going to have to buy some to replace that, right?

01:17:58.000 Right.

01:17:59.000 I'll just go to Preppercrowder.com and get a three-month supply.

01:19:00.000 Haven't decided.

01:19:01.000 Support the police because they work really, really hard.

01:19:04.000 News.

01:19:07.000 It's all fake news.

01:19:40.000 Doctor, my husband and I have tried everything to try and get pregnant. 0.98

01:19:44.000 Do you have any suggestions?

01:19:46.000 I do have something that's worked in the past.

01:19:48.000 Okay.

01:19:51.000 Oh.

01:19:52.000 Oh.

01:19:52.000 Okay.

01:19:56.000 Oh! 0.60

01:19:57.000 I think I feel something!

01:20:00.000 Wow!

01:20:02.000 Thank you, Doctor!

01:20:03.000 You're very welcome.

01:20:06.000 Every time.

01:20:08.000 Paid for by the greatest president in the history of the world.

01:20:12.000 Side effects frankly may include being fantastic.

01:20:16.000 All right, let's quickly go to CNN.

01:20:28.000 I think they're both standing up now, I think.

01:20:29.000 So, let's see what they're saying.

01:20:31.000 They are standing up.

01:20:31.000 Let's change positions.

01:20:32.000 Shut up. 1.00

01:20:32.000 Oh my gosh. 1.00

01:20:33.000 which is not well known to a lot of people.

01:20:34.000 I've read it.

01:20:35.000 It does not say that you can take documents with you.

01:20:37.000 It says actually that they are the property, the federal government.

01:20:40.000 It says you talk, you negotiate, you make a deal.

01:20:41.000 It's not criminal, by the way.

01:20:43.000 It does not say you can negotiate.

01:20:44.000 The Presidential Records Act is not criminal.

01:20:46.000 And just so you know.

01:20:47.000 It does not say you can negotiate to get a lot of documents. 0.99

01:20:50.000 Shut up. 0.99

01:20:50.000 Can I tell you? 0.99

01:20:51.000 Just so you understand, the Presidential Records Act I took the documents.

01:20:55.000 I'm allowed to.

01:20:55.000 You know who else took them?

01:20:56.000 Obama took them.

01:20:57.000 Nixon took them.

01:20:57.000 Obama did not take documents.

01:21:19.000 That's a Thug Life moment.

01:21:21.000 Look at her face.

01:21:22.000 Look at her face.

01:21:25.000 Oh my gosh.

01:21:26.000 I think it's important Mr. President to actually set the record straight here.

01:21:30.000 Oh you do?

01:21:30.000 They took documents including Vice President Pence.

01:21:34.000 When they realized they had documents they turned them back over.

01:21:36.000 The difference is that you waited to turn yours over and it was a year and a half that included a subpoena.

01:21:42.000 Excuse me, drink.

01:21:44.000 It included a raid on my house.

01:21:46.000 That's what it included.

01:21:47.000 They didn't raid Biden's house.

01:21:51.000 They didn't raid Biden's house.

01:21:52.000 You know what happened?

01:21:53.000 They put him in the house.

01:21:54.000 That's the one with the Corvette where the documents were laying all over the floor.

01:21:57.000 By the way, fact check this.

01:21:58.000 Donald Trump had them locked up in boxes labeled classified.

01:22:02.000 Joe Biden had them next to his midlife crisis.

01:22:05.000 That's not what the Presidential Records Act says.

01:22:08.000 That's not what it says, Mr. President.

01:22:09.000 Here's what you should do once though, Donald Trump.

01:22:11.000 from when he was a senator and even Democrat senators say I can't believe it

01:22:16.000 no I went by the Presidential Records Act that's not what it says here's what

01:22:24.000 you should do once though Donald Trump you should say tell me what it says

01:22:28.000 Go ahead.

01:22:29.000 Take your time.

01:22:30.000 Do that.

01:22:30.000 You do that, it'll end her career.

01:22:32.000 It's a special counsel investigating your document situation, also President Biden's

01:22:37.000 document situation.

01:22:38.000 When it comes to your documents, did you ever show those classified documents to anyone?

01:22:43.000 I would have the right to.

01:22:45.000 By the way, they were declassified after... What do you mean, not really?

01:22:47.000 Not that I can think of.

01:22:49.000 Let me just tell you, I have the absolute right to do whatever I want with them.

01:22:52.000 I have the right.

01:22:54.000 I was negotiating with NARA.

01:22:55.000 Do you know what NARA is?

01:22:56.000 The National Archives.

01:22:57.000 Extremely, extremely left group of people.

01:23:00.000 Extremely left.

01:23:01.000 Oh, look at that.

01:23:02.000 Look at that RBF.

01:23:03.000 They didn't raid my house.

01:23:05.000 They didn't raid the house of Joe Biden.

01:23:08.000 They didn't raid Obama.

01:23:09.000 Joe Biden did it in a subpoena to get those documents back like you did.

01:23:13.000 Joe Biden took 1,850 boxes.

01:23:15.000 But that's the question that investigators have, I think, is why you held on to those documents when you knew the federal government was seeking them and then giving you a subpoena to return them.

01:23:25.000 Are you ready?

01:23:26.000 Yeah, what's the answer?

01:23:27.000 Can I do you mind?

01:23:28.000 I would like for you to answer.

01:23:30.000 It's very simple.

01:23:30.000 That's why I asked it.

01:23:32.000 It's very simple. 1.00

01:23:32.000 You're a nasty person. 1.00

01:23:34.000 Oh, drink it, David! 1.00

01:23:35.000 Oh, my God.

01:23:36.000 Step on the rules.

01:23:37.000 Sir, sir, finish it.

01:23:39.000 I was negotiating, and we were talking to NARA, that's Washington, to bring whatever they want.

01:23:46.000 They can have whatever they want.

01:23:48.000 When we left Washington, we had the boxes lined up on the sidewalk outside for everybody, people to take pictures of.

01:23:55.000 Everybody knew we were taking those boxes.

01:23:57.000 And the GSA, Government Service, the GSA was the one taking them.

01:24:01.000 They brought them down to Mar-a-Lago.

01:24:02.000 We were negotiating with NARA.

01:24:04.000 All of a sudden, they raid our house.

01:24:06.000 When Biden has his documents, he won't give back the 1850 boxes.

01:24:11.000 And you're going to find some real gems in there.

01:24:13.000 The National Archives reached out to you to get your documents back.

01:24:20.000 Why did you not turn them over when you got a subpoena asking for you to turn them over?

01:24:24.000 You're negotiating with them.

01:24:25.000 She's hanging in there.

01:24:26.000 She's hanging in there.

01:24:27.000 No.

01:24:28.000 Don't.

01:24:28.000 Energy records, Jack.

01:24:30.000 We were negotiating with NARA.

01:24:32.000 Very nice people.

01:24:33.000 But they gotta love our Constitution a little bit more.

01:24:36.000 And they shouldn't red flag it, by the way.

01:24:38.000 Very nice people.

01:24:39.000 We were negotiating with NARA.

01:24:41.000 And that's what the Presidential Records Act says.

01:24:44.000 Richard Nixon, surprisingly, had problems.

01:24:47.000 And he had a lot of problems dealing with NARA.

01:24:50.000 And they ended up passing the...

01:24:51.000 Drop the historian. It's a historical moment.

01:24:52.000 ...the Presidential Records Act just for this kind of a thing.

01:24:55.000 We were dealing with them.

01:24:56.000 My last question on this subject was...

01:24:58.000 Excuse me. Excuse me.

01:25:00.000 We would have done it, but all of a sudden, they raided the House.

01:25:03.000 Now, why hasn't the FBI raided Biden?

01:25:07.000 But I just explained to you why.

01:25:08.000 It's because he alerted the government that they had those documents and had them come and get the documents from his house.

01:25:15.000 My question for you, though, when it comes to documents, do you still have any classified documents in your possession?

01:25:19.000 He's so mad.

01:25:19.000 Are you ready?

01:25:21.000 You ready?

01:25:21.000 Do you?

01:25:21.000 No, I don't have anything.

01:25:23.000 I have no classified documents.

01:25:25.000 And by the way, they become automatically declassified when I took them.

01:25:29.000 But why?

01:25:30.000 Let me ask you a question.

01:25:32.000 Why is it that Biden has nine boxes in Chinatown?

01:25:35.000 They're declassified if he chooses to say, hey, take a look at this.

01:25:40.000 why aren't people- no you cannot say that there's no evidence of that mr

01:25:44.000 president and why do they put this guy, jack smith and his group of

01:25:48.000 thugs, why don't they put him in charge of that? 0.97

01:25:50.000 i need to stop you right there because there's no evidence of what you just said there what you're

01:25:54.000 referring to there is an office that he had after leaving the vice presidency he had a

01:25:59.000 temporary office but i want to ask about another investigation that you're facing

01:26:02.000 i guess you don't know the subject i drink and have a buzz off

01:26:10.000 which is the one that's happening in georgia where they are investigating there your efforts to overturn the election

01:26:15.000 results in the state of georgia

01:26:17.000 i did nothing wrong it was the perfect phone call let me finish my question

01:26:22.000 With the Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, given the fact that there are indictments expected to come in that case this summer, is that a call you would make again today?

01:26:32.000 Yeah, I called questioning the election.

01:26:34.000 I thought it was a rigged election.

01:26:35.000 I thought I'd had a lot of problems.

01:26:37.000 I had every, I guess he's Secretary of State, I called.

01:26:41.000 Listen to this.

01:26:42.000 There are like seven lawyers on the call, many of them from there.

01:26:45.000 We're having a call.

01:26:46.000 We're having a normal call.

01:26:47.000 Nobody said, oh gee, he shouldn't have said that.

01:26:50.000 If this call was bad, I question the election.

01:26:53.000 You asked him to find you votes.

01:26:55.000 No, that's not what he said.

01:26:56.000 We just heard the audio tape.

01:26:58.000 Yes, and that's not what he said.

01:27:00.000 I said you owe me votes because the election was rigged.

01:27:04.000 Exactly.

01:27:05.000 Context.

01:27:06.000 And if this call was bad, why didn't him and his lawyers hang up?

01:27:10.000 The place where the pipe burst and they took out the, sorry, not suitcases, because we'll be fact-checked, the cases that look remarkably like carry-on suitcases with ballots.

01:27:18.000 Yes.

01:27:18.000 During the period of time where they said a pipe burst and there was no one in the building.

01:27:22.000 Did they not count those?

01:27:22.000 Allegedly!

01:27:23.000 They did, they did.

01:27:24.000 In the middle of the night.

01:27:25.000 He said, come on, you know there was fraud.

01:27:27.000 Yes.

01:27:28.000 That's the context.

01:27:30.000 I was questioning the election.

01:27:31.000 They're like, cut the feed!

01:27:33.000 Cut the feed! 0.95

01:27:34.000 Voted twice.

01:27:34.000 Thank you very much.

01:27:35.000 The bully from every 80s movie.

01:27:35.000 I want to get back to the audience, Mr. President, because those are false claims you're making

01:27:40.000 about what happened in Georgia.

01:27:41.000 Jordan Tulliburger is here.

01:27:42.000 He's an undeclared voter from Hollis.

01:27:45.000 He voted for you in 2020.

01:27:47.000 Jordan, what is your question for President Trump tonight?

01:27:49.000 Voted twice.

01:27:50.000 Thank you very much.

01:27:51.000 I'm a bully from every 80s movie.

01:27:52.000 I help manage a private aviation company.

01:27:56.000 We crashed.

01:27:57.000 You want a job?

01:27:58.000 I'm looking for somebody very good.

01:28:01.000 I'm not into government interference in private business, but I've seen Republicans going after us, like DeSantis, after Disney.

01:28:09.000 What would you do as president to protect us from government interference?

01:28:12.000 To protect Disney?

01:28:12.000 Well, I'm the one that really wants to protect you.

01:28:14.000 All of these fake investigations of me are about election interference.

01:28:18.000 They think because I'm leading Biden by 11 points, 7 points, 9 points, I'm leading DeSanctimonious by a lot.

01:28:27.000 By 40 points, or 45 points, I think you ought to just relax and take it easy and think about the future, because right now his future's not looking so good.

01:28:34.000 I will tell you this, we are really putting it to Biden, but he's putting it to himself.

01:28:40.000 I'm glad he focuses back on Biden.

01:28:42.000 Yes.

01:28:42.000 He is the definition of a pressure fighter, though.

01:28:43.000 Yeah.

01:28:44.000 Donald Trump.

01:28:44.000 Oh yeah.

01:28:44.000 And by the way, the way he got out of Afghanistan was the single most embarrassing moment in the history of our country.

01:28:51.000 That is correct.

01:28:53.000 And the media never talks about it.

01:28:55.000 Oh, let's see, did she defend this?

01:28:56.000 Hey, did you ask Hillary Clinton that?

01:28:57.000 here in New Hampshire, this is a fundamental question for you.

01:29:01.000 You are running in the 2024 race.

01:29:03.000 If you are the Republican nominee and you are in that 2024 race,

01:29:07.000 will you commit tonight to accepting the results of the 2024 election?

01:29:10.000 Yeah, if I think it's an honest election, absolutely I will.

01:29:13.000 Will you commit to accepting the results of the election?

01:29:15.000 He won't give you an inch.

01:29:17.000 The woman answered again.

01:29:18.000 If I think it's an honest election, I would be honored to.

01:29:20.000 Did you ask Hillary Clinton that? Did you ask Biden that?

01:29:21.000 Or did you start a committee along with Elizabeth Warren on election interference and election fraud?

01:29:26.000 but back then he said it was russia Remember that?

01:29:28.000 Every single Democrat refused to accept the results of the 2016 election.

01:29:32.000 They didn't ask those questions.

01:29:33.000 accepting the results for Georgia's LBL Cup.

01:29:35.000 If it's an honest election, correct, I will.

01:29:37.000 Okay, so not committing to accepting the 2024 election results.

01:29:40.000 We're acknowledging what happened in 2020.

01:29:42.000 Come on! 0.61

01:29:43.000 We're acknowledging what happened in 2020.

01:29:44.000 This is an important conversation with voters to hear and to have.

01:29:49.000 Thank you to our audience and to our host.

01:29:50.000 I feel like we're bias watchers here.

01:29:53.000 Of course we're bias watchers, but I want to see what CNN's commentary is on that because they're gonna have to run interference for her. 0.99

01:29:59.000 That was a bloodbath.

01:30:00.000 Yeah, it was a bloodbath.

01:30:01.000 She had no handle on it.

01:30:02.000 Oh, there we go.

01:30:03.000 Yeah, look, he even pursed his lips.

01:30:05.000 He's like, yeah, thank you.

01:30:07.000 It was like Bill Burr mocking someone.

01:30:09.000 Yeah, yeah, you did great.

01:30:11.000 You only just ruined your career, right?

01:30:14.000 You'll be back.

01:30:14.000 You think you're gonna be saved by your white pantsuit, God?

01:30:18.000 He looks so tired and yet he's just as combative as ever.

01:30:21.000 Like, not an inch does he give.

01:30:24.000 And Anderson is cross-eyed right now.

01:30:27.000 First of the 2024 presidential campaign is now in the books.

01:30:30.000 He's going to be a dentist.

01:30:32.000 Hello from Washington.

01:30:34.000 It was an interesting night.

01:30:36.000 Mr. Trump's first lie was told Oh boy, here we go.

01:30:38.000 tonight with his false claim that the 2020 election was quote a rigged election.

01:30:43.000 And by the way, it's only a lie because CNN says so.

01:30:46.000 Right.

01:30:47.000 The threat to Vice President Pence about Pence's ability to overturn the election,

01:30:51.000 about COVID, about the economy and more. He called a black law enforcement officer a thug. 0.96

01:30:56.000 He said people here in Washington, D.C. 0.97

01:30:58.000 at Chinatown don't speak English.

01:30:59.000 You're trying to make it a racial thing?

01:31:01.000 It's unbelievable.

01:31:02.000 He was the only person who killed someone on January 6th.

01:31:04.000 Unbelievable.

01:31:05.000 Other than the five people that you guys said.

01:31:07.000 Wow, he had to throw in that.

01:31:08.000 He had to throw in black. 0.98

01:31:10.000 He called a black man a thug who shot someone from how many yards away was it? 0.91

01:31:14.000 Was it 30? 0.95

01:31:15.000 It's unbelievable.

01:31:16.000 Was it 30 yards away?

01:31:17.000 It's unbelievable. 0.77

01:31:18.000 The black person? 0.98

01:31:18.000 No, no, no. 0.98

01:31:19.000 The black officer. 0.97

01:31:20.000 Five feet. 0.82

01:31:21.000 But I mean, but I mean, that's so unnecessary.

01:31:23.000 That's exactly why CNN loses ratings.

01:31:25.000 I'm sorry.

01:31:26.000 Ashley Babbitt is crawling through a window.

01:31:29.000 He could have gone, boop.

01:31:30.000 That's right.

01:31:31.000 I was going by what their initial claim was.

01:31:32.000 That's right.

01:31:33.000 Down the hall.

01:31:34.000 He was right next to it.

01:31:34.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:31:35.000 Come on.

01:31:36.000 That's right.

01:31:36.000 Jake referenced Manhattan federal jury found him liable of sexually abusing and defaming.

01:31:41.000 Fuck you! 1.00

01:31:42.000 Fuck you! 1.00

01:31:43.000 No one found him guilty of sexually abusing anyone! 1.00

01:31:45.000 That right there, just so, I don't know, this right there, is a lie!

01:31:50.000 That's a lie! 0.93

01:31:51.000 He wasn't found- He just said he was just found guilty of sexually abusing- that's a lie!

01:31:56.000 He didn't sexually abuse anyone, the jury says- Right.

01:31:58.000 It was sexual battery.

01:32:00.000 This- okay, just to be clear, I will.

01:32:02.000 It wasn't a Donald Trump quote, it was a Stalin quote initially.

01:32:05.000 Anderson Cooper, this press, is the enemy of the people.

01:32:07.000 They flat out lie in order to try and re-engineer society. 1.00

01:32:11.000 When Anderson Cooper, sorry, pardon my language, if you have kids watching, they shouldn't be up this late anyway, fuck that guy. 0.99

01:32:16.000 He was found guilty of sexually abusing, nope, that is a lie, and you either have to believe that Anderson Cooper Is so dumb, he doesn't know that it's a lie, or he is deliberately trying to run interference because his little friend, who he probably has cocktail hour with, or wind down Wednesday parties with, just got her hat handed to her. 1.00

01:32:36.000 That is a lie. 0.98

01:32:37.000 It's not even close to the truth.

01:32:39.000 It's not even close to the truth.

01:32:41.000 So sexual abuse is not the same as sexual battery, then?

01:32:44.000 It's just battery and defamation.

01:32:46.000 Right.

01:32:46.000 Yes.

01:32:46.000 I thought it was more the defamation thing, but really quickly, we did run the commercial for PrepWithCrowder.

01:32:51.000 I just wanted to make sure that we got that part.

01:32:54.000 Can you grab that for me, Brian?

01:32:55.000 What do you need?

01:32:55.000 What's that?

01:32:57.000 Grab that big case right there.

01:32:58.000 Yes, big case.

01:32:58.000 Really quickly.

01:32:59.000 Bring the big thing over to him.

01:33:00.000 There's a great deal.

01:33:01.000 If you go to PrepWithCrowder... Oh, we have a different discount code going on right now.

01:33:06.000 PrepWithCrowder.com, you get $200 of free emergency food kit.

01:33:13.000 No, don't.

01:33:15.000 We got, I think, four of those.

01:33:17.000 That's just, no, that's a placeholder.

01:33:18.000 How long will this last me?

01:33:20.000 That's where our intern stores his tobacco pouches.

01:33:23.000 I didn't know that.

01:33:24.000 Yeah, that has fermented for months.

01:33:25.000 But it is PrEP.

01:33:26.000 PrEPwithPredator.com.

01:33:27.000 Get $200 free of survival gear. 0.97

01:33:28.000 They have the balls to sponsor this show.

01:33:32.000 It's the only sponsor that we've run on this show, I think for weeks by the way right now. 0.96

01:33:36.000 So do it's you can go and buy these things like at Costco, but the truth is you get a

01:33:39.000 better product, better price, their stuff works, and you don't need to worry about some

01:33:43.000 zombie apocalypse.

01:33:44.000 I lived through the ice storm in Montreal.

01:33:46.000 I mean, I remember it was in the dozens, if not hundreds, eventually people died.

01:33:50.000 You have the earthquakes that happened in California, any natural disaster, you should

01:33:53.000 have enough water for a couple of weeks, you should have some way to heat some food and

01:33:57.000 have a couple months or three months of emergency food.

01:34:00.000 Everyone should have it.

01:34:01.000 You don't have to be some kind of a prepper.

01:34:03.000 Let's see what three, three months in this in this three months, three months and $200

01:34:07.000 worth of survival gear.

01:34:08.000 Wow.

01:34:09.000 Feels nutritious.

01:34:10.000 A person who from the time I'll take some more seven, I'm blown.

01:34:12.000 Can I take this off my you can take it off?

01:34:16.000 I mean unless you need it there Uh oh.

01:34:18.000 How dare he?

01:34:18.000 intentionally to his supporters and plans to do that and I don't really see

01:34:22.000 anything that's changed about Trump, frankly. I mean between when he left the White

01:34:26.000 House and today. So his aides can say what they want, but Trump is not.

01:34:31.000 Some things did change. The economy tanked and Americans know it. So your guy, and yes I

01:34:36.000 mean your guy, is losing. Your guy is losing. You just said, think about that for a second.

01:34:42.000 Pierre used to do this, where people would give him crap, where every opponent he would face, he was a fighter, and some people would talk trash, right? 0.98

01:34:42.000 You know, George St. 0.98

01:34:47.000 And George St. 1.00

01:34:47.000 Pierre came at it with the idea of, you know, if I just say my opponent sucks, then that means I suck. 1.00

01:34:51.000 So, no matter who he would say, he's my most dangerous opponent, he's the best guy I fight, he's dangerous, and I have to plan for him. 0.99

01:34:58.000 What they're saying right now is, Donald Trump is so terrible, how bad must your guy suck if he's losing to him? 0.98

01:35:04.000 That's amazing. 1.00

01:35:05.000 Yeah, exactly. 0.90

01:35:06.000 You're saying that this guy is a liar, he's gonna spew all this kind of hateful rhetoric.

01:35:10.000 Well, Trump is the only guy who gets Biden elected. 0.78

01:35:13.000 If that happens.

01:35:14.000 No.

01:35:15.000 Donald Trump is beating him by bigger numbers than percentages.

01:35:18.000 Do you think he beats him if there's an election today?

01:35:20.000 I do.

01:35:20.000 Yes.

01:35:20.000 100%.

01:35:20.000 I mean, assuming that it's a fair and honest election, which, you know, is anyone's guess.

01:35:24.000 Donald Trump said, basically saying, like, you're telling me... By the way, they're going to January 6th.

01:35:27.000 By the way, I told you they would say this.

01:35:29.000 Many of them are great people.

01:35:30.000 I said that they would say it was a beautiful day.

01:35:32.000 Watch them bring that up.

01:35:33.000 Drink.

01:35:34.000 And it's really what voters who are not in that room think about it.

01:35:38.000 Look, he is who he is, and he is who he was.

01:35:41.000 They would vote for him!

01:35:42.000 Hold on, let me say this, let me repeat.

01:35:43.000 He is who he is, better than you.

01:35:46.000 4148!

01:35:46.000 Yeah.

01:35:47.000 If held today, they would vote for him!

01:35:48.000 Stunning things to see, though, in the sad laughter when he was mocking E.G.

01:35:53.000 and Carol, really just offending the audience, is the hold he has on the Republican Party.

01:35:58.000 And so welcome to the Trump Paradox.

01:36:00.000 CNN?

01:36:02.000 Reached out to Republican undeclared voters in New Hampshire.

01:36:06.000 That is an honest reflection of Republican beliefs in New Hampshire.

01:36:09.000 Which is how out of touch you are with America.

01:36:11.000 Unbelievable.

01:36:11.000 What did I tell you?

01:36:12.000 Remember what I told you at the beginning of the show?

01:36:13.000 Maybe we can bring it back up for Mug Club. 0.96

01:36:14.000 I said they are going to fundamentally start With the presupposition, which is a lie.

01:36:19.000 They are not going to acknowledge that all of the recent polls have not only Trump beating Biden, but beating him by a greater margin than Ron DeSantis.

01:36:27.000 Wherever you line up, that's just a fact.

01:36:29.000 And they right now are calling it the Trump Paradox.

01:36:31.000 This is what they want.

01:36:32.000 They want you to try and have a civil war within the Republican Party where you go, oh, maybe I want Trump, but DeSantis is more electable.

01:36:38.000 Here's the beauty right now.

01:36:39.000 You can vote for, and I don't care who it is, vote in the primary for who you want to be president.

01:36:44.000 Because right now, either one wins.

01:36:46.000 Donald Trump by a slightly wider margin than Ron DeSantis.

01:36:49.000 I told you they wouldn't acknowledge it because they want to try and act, why?

01:36:52.000 Like the MAGA Republicans. 0.90

01:36:54.000 They want to try and paint the Donald Trump voters as so extreme that they should be separated off, right?

01:36:59.000 Sort of pulling like a patriot with Mel Gibson.

01:37:01.000 Pick off the commanders first.

01:37:02.000 Pick off this very strong faction.

01:37:04.000 The faction, by the way, that would vote for him over DeSantis by double digits.

01:37:08.000 They want to paint them as MAGA extremists, so it's the Trump Paradox.

01:37:11.000 The Trump Paradox is he's beating your guy, period, full stop, and by a little bit more than DeSantis.

01:37:18.000 There's no paradox!

01:37:20.000 But their idea is to get Republicans who are moderate to say, you know what, maybe it's not worth more of this.

01:37:26.000 This is so fatiguing that we should just vote for Biden so we don't have to deal with what's crazy.

01:37:31.000 And that is to say that people aren't going to be outraged and angry at how unfairly he's treated and how much they're being lied.

01:37:38.000 So think about it this way.

01:37:38.000 Think about it this way.

01:37:39.000 They already had their chance to go.

01:37:41.000 I don't really want to vote for Donald Trump.

01:37:43.000 Let's vote for Biden.

01:37:44.000 He's the safe alternative.

01:37:45.000 Look at the wreckage that is following his presidency.

01:37:49.000 So you believe in borders?

01:37:51.000 More economic turmoil.

01:37:52.000 More strife and war in the country.

01:37:55.000 Where's Code Pink?

01:37:57.000 All of these things, right?

01:37:58.000 All of these things are happening.

01:37:59.000 So you no longer have that.

01:38:00.000 And I think I was wrong when I said that earlier on.

01:38:02.000 Where I said, not tonight, but earlier on in this, I was like, I don't know if Trump has a... Jury found him liable for sexual abuse.

01:38:08.000 And they're replaying.

01:38:09.000 I wouldn't replay most of that CNN.

01:38:12.000 I think they might have found him liable for that.

01:38:14.000 I think that might be true.

01:38:15.000 They found him liable for battery and defamation.

01:38:17.000 Which is also sexual abuse.

01:38:19.000 Well, no, battery doesn't have to be.

01:38:22.000 It's civilly, by the way, and battery doesn't have to be.

01:38:24.000 You've already battered me, I can feel it.

01:38:25.000 The problem is they just say sexual abuse as a general term.

01:38:27.000 Look, battery, there's also a difference between... How did I lose my... 0.99

01:38:32.000 Are you shitting me?

01:38:33.000 It's like between the car seats. 0.99

01:38:34.000 It's gone?

01:38:34.000 Your phone?

01:38:35.000 My research document fell between the seats.

01:38:37.000 Don't lose your... There's a huge difference between sexual abuse, and this is what they're trying to do.

01:38:41.000 They're trying to make you go, rape, sexual abuse, and not actually look at the case. 0.91

01:38:45.000 Battery. 0.52

01:38:47.000 I have the definition here.

01:38:48.000 This is battery.

01:38:49.000 Feels so good.

01:38:50.000 I mean, so bad.

01:38:51.000 By the way, it's hashtag CrowderTownHall.

01:38:53.000 You get $10 off if you join the night.

01:38:55.000 Let's see what they're replaying.

01:38:56.000 I'm curious to see what CNN thinks is a win for them tonight.

01:38:59.000 The truth.

01:38:59.000 That's very true.

01:39:01.000 us to put nothing in. Mr. President, you're recounting your version of events here right now to the audience.

01:39:06.000 The truth. You referenced the trial. You did not go to the trial and actually

01:39:09.000 testified. Do you wish that you had testified? No, it wouldn't have made a difference.

01:39:13.000 This is a rigged deal. That's very true. This was a... my lawyer said, sir, you don't have to do it.

01:39:18.000 I actually said, I think I should, it would be respectful.

01:39:20.000 They said, sir, don't do it.

01:39:22.000 This is a fake story and you don't want to give it credibility.

01:39:25.000 One thing you did do in this... And I swear, and I've never done that.

01:39:32.000 Okay, we're going to bring up that clip again for those who missed it.

01:39:35.000 Uh, Carol, I keep getting the, uh, E. Jean Carol, just to be clear.

01:39:40.000 E. Jean Carol, the jury said, did not prove rape.

01:39:44.000 As a matter of fact, she didn't really prove anything other than sort of defamation, just to be clear.

01:39:49.000 And they were pretty liberal with the term battery, again, they changed the statute of limitations.

01:39:52.000 But, uh, oh, no, hold on, we have a little, let's, we have a little one, two lanyards.

01:39:57.000 We're talking politics.

01:39:58.000 We need you to stay out.

01:39:59.000 We don't want anyone to be watching on camera.

01:40:01.000 Yeah, I'm not gonna cut to it.

01:40:04.000 No, he's adorable.

01:40:05.000 He's young.

01:40:05.000 You don't want people seeing him.

01:40:06.000 Absolutely not.

01:40:07.000 Toolman's son is about as cute as they get.

01:40:09.000 He just wanted to come in and see Danny.

01:40:11.000 I know we're going long.

01:40:12.000 Sorry, Joe.

01:40:13.000 Sorry.

01:40:14.000 Looks a lot like me, which is weird.

01:40:15.000 But anyway, keep going.

01:40:16.000 So she, the jury said... It's fine, it's fine.

01:40:19.000 Keep going.

01:40:19.000 I'm sorry.

01:40:20.000 The jury said, well, you do moonlight as a milkman.

01:40:23.000 I do moonlight as a milkman.

01:40:25.000 Organic milk.

01:40:26.000 Yes.

01:40:27.000 I milk it myself.

01:40:28.000 It's a milk share.

01:40:29.000 Grass fed.

01:40:29.000 It's a milk share.

01:40:30.000 It's a way to skirt the loss.

01:40:31.000 That's why my hands are so rough and big.

01:40:33.000 The jury said she couldn't prove rape.

01:40:35.000 She didn't prove rape.

01:40:36.000 And again, we're going to roll the clip sexy.

01:40:39.000 Yes. 1.00

01:40:40.000 She's a lunatic. 1.00

01:40:41.000 They won't show you this. 1.00

01:40:42.000 I think most people think of rape as a violent assault.

01:40:47.000 I think most people think of rape as being sexy.

01:40:50.000 I'm sorry, what?

01:40:51.000 Let's take a short break.

01:40:52.000 Think of the fantasies.

01:40:53.000 So's your hair! 0.98

01:40:55.000 We've got to take a quick break.

01:40:57.000 If you can stick around, we'll talk more on the other side.

01:40:58.000 I like that part!

01:41:03.000 She looks like she's been sleeping on that side and she just woke up.

01:41:06.000 She looks like Bridget Nielsen on a meth bender. 1.00

01:41:08.000 Yes, go ahead.

01:41:09.000 So they found him.

01:41:10.000 So sexual, let's see what it is right here. 0.93

01:41:12.000 So yes, Mr. Trump sexually abused Ms. 0.98

01:41:15.000 Carroll.

01:41:16.000 Let me read for you what that could be.

01:41:17.000 Here's a quick quote from the judge.

01:41:18.000 Anything from a gentle but unwanted peck on the cheek To stabbing somebody with a knife could be battery for purposes of a civil case like this one.

01:41:28.000 Unbelievable!

01:41:29.000 So in other words, it could be me greeting my aunt at Thanksgiving, kissing her on the cheek, or the guy in Warriors saying, maybe we should run a train on you.

01:41:37.000 That's incredible.

01:41:37.000 They're both the same.

01:41:38.000 That's the point, right?

01:41:39.000 That's a very broad term.

01:41:40.000 And by the way, it's not the same term state to state.

01:41:43.000 They're the same if you- The damages, what they're trying to do, the damages are for defamation. 0.96

01:41:47.000 Which, by the way, is what happened with, what's the name of the professional slut? 1.00

01:41:52.000 Stormy Daniels. 0.99

01:41:53.000 They tried to say that he defamed her but he couldn't have defamed her.

01:41:53.000 That's what happened.

01:41:56.000 That's why she owed his attorney's fees because she said it never happened.

01:42:00.000 So for him to call her a liar can't be defamation because she admitted to lying. 0.99

01:42:05.000 A peck on the cheek is sexual battery if you wear your genitals on your cheek. 0.99

01:42:09.000 That is true. 0.99

01:42:10.000 Right?

01:42:10.000 Yes.

01:42:11.000 So that's old genital cheek Larry. 0.94

01:42:13.000 Or you have herpes on your cheek. 0.79

01:42:13.000 That's right. 0.79

01:42:14.000 I can't remember what it is.

01:42:15.000 Demonstrate maybe?

01:42:16.000 Just demonstrate and I'm just kidding.

01:42:19.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:42:19.000 You really must be sick. 0.99

01:42:21.000 He already touched me with his big fingers. 0.86

01:42:23.000 I can still feel them on my shoulder.

01:42:26.000 Let's go to Librarian Stand-In, whoever that is on CNN.

01:42:30.000 The rule of law, the justice system.

01:42:33.000 You called the Capitol Hill police officer a thug.

01:42:36.000 We've already talked about it.

01:42:37.000 He was.

01:42:38.000 He killed somebody who wasn't a threat.

01:42:39.000 What do you call that? 1.00

01:42:40.000 I expect that bitch's stockings to roll up under a house. 1.00

01:42:44.000 My phone blew up. 1.00

01:42:45.000 People were outraged by it and I would end with this.

01:42:49.000 Yes.

01:42:50.000 No, you were.

01:42:51.000 You were the one who thinks they could be a Republican running against him.

01:42:56.000 You just saw tonight what you're up against on a debate stage.

01:43:03.000 No, Dana, because you had nothing.

01:43:04.000 Wow.

01:43:04.000 So let's go to Anderson in New York.

01:43:06.000 Anderson?

01:43:06.000 We even talked about what the former president said about Ukraine and Russia in detail.

01:43:10.000 And what Christie said was Donald Trump says he would turn the war on Ukraine in 24 hours.

01:43:15.000 He said despite how ridiculous this is, I suspect he would do it by turning over Ukraine 1.00

01:43:19.000 to Putin and Russia. 0.98

01:43:20.000 Putin's puppet.

01:43:21.000 So let's go to Anderson in New York.

01:43:23.000 Anderson? 1.00

01:43:24.000 Jane, you ignorant slut. 1.00

01:43:25.000 We'll call you haters. 1.00

01:43:26.000 I'm Senator Bill Conrad.

01:43:27.000 I'm haters from across the partisan spectrum.

01:43:28.000 Van Jillens, Kristen Soltis, Anderson, David Axelrod, Alyssa Farrah Griffin, David Urban

01:43:32.000 also joining us as Florida Republican congressman.

01:43:34.000 I saw this man from the shield.

01:43:36.000 That's right. You thought so.

01:43:38.000 Everybody's trying to look super smart.

01:43:41.000 In one way, my thoughts were summarized by the previous panel.

01:43:46.000 But I will say, anyone who has been paying attention and expected Donald Trump to be anything other than what he was tonight, really has misread the situation.

01:43:58.000 That is who he is.

01:44:00.000 Awesome.

01:44:02.000 That is who he is.

01:44:03.000 This is childish and ad hominem.

01:44:06.000 But it looks like his spread collar is rejecting his neck.

01:44:11.000 Holding on for dear life, that button.

01:44:12.000 I really don't like Axelrod.

01:44:13.000 He's got a weak chin, I'll give him that.

01:44:15.000 He's got a weak chin, I'll give you that.

01:44:17.000 At least he's letting his... Michael Chiklis.

01:44:18.000 Yes, that's it, Michael Chiklis.

01:44:20.000 He's got a weak chin, I'll give him that. He's got a weak chin, I'll give you that.

01:44:23.000 And that sort of, which authentically is who Donald Trump is, but it does underscore one thing, and I don't use this

01:44:29.000 term lightly.

01:44:30.000 At least he's letting his... 0.84

01:44:31.000 Don't bring up the side of the guy from the shield and that guy.

01:44:33.000 That's amazing. He is letting his... Michael Chiklis.

01:44:35.000 Yes, that's it. Michael Chiklis.

01:44:37.000 He's letting his brows grow out, and I appreciate that.

01:44:39.000 Yes.

01:44:40.000 But if you're a politician and you're just willing to blow through facts and blow through challenges...

01:44:44.000 As in Cooper said, did someone say blow through facts?

01:44:45.000 ...your version of the truth, you know, there's some advantage to that and he's proved it.

01:44:51.000 This is the Donald Trump that we have always known.

01:44:54.000 He is who he is.

01:44:56.000 And if you are a voter who is looking at next November and thinking, you're dreading... She's the Republican strategist and pollster, right?

01:45:03.000 She is the balance to this panel.

01:45:06.000 Right before we go to socialist Van Jones.

01:45:09.000 And then I want to go to our panel here for some thoughts.

01:45:13.000 And by the way, I know that we are biased.

01:45:15.000 The difference is, we let you know and we make all references publicly available at ladderworthcreditor.com.

01:45:19.000 Every single thing we've told you tonight is accurate.

01:45:21.000 Specifically around January.

01:45:23.000 And I encourage you to fact check us.

01:45:25.000 He wants to make the case, look, you think I'm the chaos guy, but actually under Biden, that's chaos, right?

01:45:32.000 He talks about the border, crime, gas prices.

01:45:34.000 Economy.

01:45:34.000 And then he undercuts his own message that he's actually not the chaos guy by saying he would pardon the folks on January 6th.

01:45:41.000 You can see what message he's trying to drive.

01:45:43.000 He said some people.

01:45:45.000 He said, I don't know about all of them because some of them got out of hand.

01:45:48.000 And then he talked about Antifa, who you, by the way, you you won't utter their name.

01:45:53.000 It's like Voldemort.

01:45:54.000 You won't say black.

01:45:55.000 You won't talk about Black Lives Matter anymore.

01:45:57.000 You won't talk about Antifa.

01:45:59.000 Fake classes, he doesn't need them.

01:46:04.000 Keep going. 1.00

01:46:05.000 Donald Trump is unfit, unwell, unimproved, and still good enough to mess you up in a general according to every single recent poll, you dumb, bald-headed prick. 1.00

01:46:16.000 What does that say about you? 1.00

01:46:18.000 Unimproved.

01:46:18.000 He still beats a guy by 7 points!

01:46:21.000 You're being racist. 0.99

01:46:21.000 But not every single one of them was found guilty, dummy! 0.99

01:46:23.000 in US courts of seditious conspiracy a criminal thug group called the Proud Boys 0.94

01:46:29.000 that's an easy no I'm not gonna pardon traitors he wouldn't even give you a

01:46:36.000 every single one of them was found guilty dummy just like I wouldn't say 0.96

01:46:40.000 that every single member of Antifa is a basement dwelling prick

01:46:45.000 It's mostly accurate, but it would be a lie for me to say that that's all of them.

01:46:49.000 I'm sure you showed up to a couple of meetings.

01:46:52.000 I honestly found it jarring to watch.

01:46:54.000 Jarring?

01:46:58.000 Jarring's a great word.

01:47:01.000 He basically alluded to restarting the inhumane family separation policy at the southern border.

01:47:06.000 By the way, her qualification was being on MTV's Teen Moms. 0.98

01:47:11.000 And then he made light of sexual assault and even more horrifyingly some of the audience members laughed. 1.00

01:47:15.000 You're a stupid dumbass. 1.00

01:47:16.000 He didn't make light of sexual assault. 1.00

01:47:18.000 He made light of fake news lying about sexual assault.

01:47:23.000 Important policy issues did come up.

01:47:25.000 She's jarred.

01:47:28.000 Any Republican running for office or considering running for president wants to secure the border.

01:47:32.000 They want to bring down inflation.

01:47:33.000 They want to deal with the economy.

01:47:35.000 They want strong American leadership abroad.

01:47:37.000 They will do that without the chaos, the insanity, and throwing our allies under the bus the way Donald Trump was.

01:47:44.000 I'm down here at the lone end of the table.

01:47:47.000 Come on, bring up the side-by-side of him. 0.91

01:47:48.000 Oh, there you go.

01:47:50.000 What explains the fact to America, maybe Jamie Gangel.

01:47:53.000 Do we have a picture of Michael Chiklis?

01:47:54.000 Yes, we do have a picture of Michael Chiklis coming up right now.

01:47:56.000 You know, half the United States still likes this guy, right?

01:47:59.000 You heard John King say, he may be the next President of the United States, right?

01:48:03.000 He may be the next President of the United States. 0.93

01:48:04.000 So, I know there's this, you know, he's a terrible human being. 0.86

01:48:08.000 It's the same guy! 0.86

01:48:10.000 It's the same guy!

01:48:11.000 Now, when you get to a close-up, look.

01:48:13.000 Okay, now, once you go to a close-up, bring him up again, Michael Chiklis.

01:48:16.000 Tell me this isn't him.

01:48:18.000 It's him!

01:48:18.000 That's actually him playing the Trump advisor.

01:48:21.000 What's he doing on CNN?

01:48:22.000 It's method acting.

01:48:23.000 Trump advisor.

01:48:23.000 What's he doing on CNN?

01:48:25.000 He's...

01:48:27.000 It's method acting.

01:48:29.000 Trump advisor.

01:48:31.000 The movie's called Trump Advisor.

01:48:33.000 Next is going to be...

01:48:35.000 What's the name of the guy from NYPD Blue who was also in He's Hispanic.

01:48:39.000 Dennis Freenhouse.

01:48:40.000 No, not Dennis Freenhouse. 0.99

01:48:41.000 I'm going to stab this pencil in your eye. 1.00

01:48:46.000 No, it's a guy, he's like Bobby something, his name is super white, but he's like tall, Hispanic, NYPD Blue.

01:48:51.000 Gemma.

01:48:52.000 Oh.

01:48:52.000 Hey Gemma.

01:48:52.000 Oh, um, um, um.

01:48:54.000 I can't.

01:48:55.000 Oh man.

01:48:55.000 Jimmy Smits.

01:48:55.000 The president in West Wing, Jimmy Smits.

01:48:57.000 Jimmy Smits.

01:48:58.000 You nailed it.

01:48:59.000 I stole it.

01:49:00.000 That's what they're going to bring up next.

01:49:01.000 Alright.

01:49:03.000 There he is, there he is.

01:49:04.000 Can I just say something really quickly?

01:49:06.000 The jarred lady that was speaking just a moment ago, she said, oh, you're going to start that inhumane process of taking kids away from parents. 1.00

01:49:13.000 OK, let me just say two things.

01:49:14.000 One, if you don't want your kids taken from you, do not try to cross the border illegally.

01:49:18.000 Second point is do you know why they do that?

01:49:21.000 Because a lot of people come across the border with child sex slaves and say they're my children to be able to get special treatment and preferential treatment and they separate you from the parents to make sure that they're not gang raped and also to make sure that the story checks out so maybe if you did a little research you would understand they're actually trying to help Sex.

01:49:38.000 Slave. 0.75

01:49:39.000 Children. 0.84

01:49:40.000 Escape.

01:49:40.000 Who else in this room is a... What are you, a liberal over there?

01:49:43.000 Who else in this room is officially jarred?

01:49:44.000 I consider myself jarred.

01:49:47.000 Cheers to that.

01:49:48.000 That was out of line to a jarring degree.

01:49:53.000 I can't believe that a professional woman on news set up her response on a panel with, I was very jarred.

01:50:03.000 You shouldn't play with the big boys then, sweetheart.

01:50:06.000 She said, I found it jarring.

01:50:07.000 I found it jarring.

01:50:08.000 I find it disorientating, like she just came back from that time warp in Event Horizon.

01:50:12.000 Whoa, why don't you cry about it?

01:50:13.000 Can we run the fact check too on the wall?

01:50:15.000 We actually have exclusive video of Donald Trump and some of the work that he actually did on building the wall.

01:50:21.000 Oh, do we?

01:50:21.000 Yeah, we do.

01:50:22.000 Let's go to it now.

01:50:24.000 Wait, which one?

01:50:24.000 I'm going for it.

01:50:26.000 The one we showed earlier on the show?

01:50:28.000 The same one?

01:50:29.000 No, no, no, no.

01:50:32.000 At least they've got Republicans. 0.90

01:50:33.000 Oh, oh, that's right.

01:50:35.000 Oh, hold on a second.

01:50:35.000 Yeah, hold on a second.

01:50:36.000 Joe Louis is here.

01:50:37.000 We have a break-in.

01:50:38.000 Joe Louis.

01:50:38.000 Oh We don't have it

01:50:49.000 Never mind.

01:50:50.000 Wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:50:52.000 They can't hear you.

01:50:53.000 They can't hear you. 0.96

01:50:53.000 I'm going to eat him. 0.96

01:50:58.000 Never mind.

01:50:58.000 I was wrong.

01:50:59.000 I was wrong.

01:50:59.000 Gerald was calling for something I don't have.

01:51:01.000 I thought he had it.

01:51:02.000 He doesn't have it.

01:51:03.000 It's one of my favorite things that we've ever done.

01:51:05.000 If we could get that, that would be phenomenal.

01:51:08.000 It's the dueling of the beard edger.

01:51:11.000 This is a disaster, because initially with Ukraine, Joe Biden wanted to give Vladimir Zelensky... By the way, of course I'm not going to eat a dog, just to be clear.

01:51:20.000 And it wasn't until people in Moscow, in Ukraine, here in the United States, said this invasion is wrong, that Joe Biden reversed course.

01:51:27.000 Do you want a victory in Ukraine?

01:51:29.000 Do you want a victory in Ukraine?

01:51:30.000 I'm just trying to respond to everything that's been coming up on the table.

01:51:32.000 Last thing, let me say this.

01:51:34.000 We spent 22-23 minutes talking about January 6th.

01:51:38.000 We could have been talking about a whole lot of other issues instead of doing that for the first half hour or so.

01:51:43.000 But let me be very clear.

01:51:44.000 What was said in this town hall about National Guard troops that were authorized by Caitlin was wrong.

01:51:51.000 I'm on the Oversight Committee.

01:51:53.000 I was in two hearings on January 6th.

01:51:56.000 Can we give CNN props for at least having Republicans on there? 0.98

01:51:58.000 Yeah, let's see what he said.

01:51:59.000 First, National Guard troops on January 4.

01:52:02.000 He followed up in a call with then acting Deaf Secretary of Defense on January 5, trying

01:52:07.000 to see where the deployment was on those troops.

01:52:10.000 That is testimony in the Oversight Committee.

01:52:12.000 Everybody testified in Oversight Committee when Nancy Pelosi was Speaker of the House,

01:52:16.000 except one organization, and that was the Capitol Police.

01:52:19.000 Did you read the Secretary of Defense's book?

01:52:20.000 Because Nancy Pelosi would not allow that. 1.00

01:52:21.000 I'm tell—well, I'm telling you what was testified to— Notice he's the only one who brought in actual facts—

01:52:25.000 Correct.

01:52:26.000 And look what he brought up.

01:52:27.000 Did you read the book?

01:52:29.000 When you can say anything that's not under oath, he's like, I'm telling you what the committee had- What is- Hold on, hold on.

01:52:35.000 He testified to under oath in the oversight committee.

01:52:39.000 Congressman, can I just ask- There are the facts, go ahead.

01:52:41.000 Do you acknowledge Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, correct?

01:52:44.000 Again, we're going to continue to talk about 2020- Irrelevant. 1.00

01:52:47.000 Snuffle up against Trump's snout, that bitch! 1.00

01:52:48.000 Let me tell you why most voters are frankly kind of tired of y'all bringing this up. 1.00

01:52:53.000 Inflation.

01:52:54.000 more.

01:53:01.000 And I'm going to be talking about the 2012 election.

01:53:30.000 You guys want me to make a statement?

01:53:32.000 What did you say that's factual, Anderson?

01:53:33.000 Anyway, who cares?

01:53:34.000 This is the beauty of it.

01:53:34.000 Why get mad?

01:53:36.000 They have 130,000 viewers.

01:53:38.000 Totally.

01:53:39.000 We had more than them tonight.

01:53:40.000 Yes, at any given moment.

01:53:42.000 And the live ticker's broken.

01:53:44.000 I understand why some people believe it.

01:53:46.000 Moving forward into 2024, a couple things are very, very clear.

01:53:50.000 The nation is a mess.

01:53:51.000 Clear, just like your skin, Anderson. 1.00

01:53:52.000 Our border is overrun.

01:53:54.000 Inflation is crippling every family.

01:53:56.000 Republican, Democrat, Independent.

01:53:58.000 Those are the facts of the matter.

01:53:59.000 Do you think they're all piling on him?

01:54:00.000 They're all piling on him.

01:54:01.000 But at least CNN has three Republicans on a panel.

01:54:04.000 And I understand that you don't feel that.

01:54:05.000 No, they have one and two patsies.

01:54:07.000 And questions about the last election and the insurrection should be part of the discussion now, but since the president was there... By the way, also notice they put up their lower thirds and not his.

01:54:16.000 Yep.

01:54:17.000 That's right. 1.00

01:54:17.000 Liar! 1.00

01:54:18.000 Get to the point, David. 1.00

01:54:18.000 and he repeated it again tonight since he was the one who rallied the crowd that stormed 1.00

01:54:24.000 the Capitol that he celebrated tonight.

01:54:26.000 I want to ask you this one thing because I was interested when he was talking about his

01:54:29.000 case that was decided yesterday by a jury and he said well that was rigged.

01:54:33.000 It was a Clinton appointed judge.

01:54:35.000 A lot of Trump appointees...

01:54:36.000 By the way, I'll come back to this.

01:54:38.000 ...obligations of election rigging.

01:54:40.000 Should they be trusted because they're Trump-appointed judges or are they rigged too?

01:54:45.000 Listen, every candidate that runs for office, everyone, I've run for office, you're allowed to contest the election.

01:54:50.000 Where's his lower third?

01:54:50.000 We all have that ability.

01:54:52.000 They brought up Axel Rodwell.

01:54:53.000 This guy was still talking.

01:54:54.000 Where's his lower third?

01:54:58.000 Do we need a timer? 0.99

01:54:59.000 Where's his fucking lower third? 0.99

01:55:00.000 Where's his lower third? 1.00

01:55:03.000 Still going.

01:55:04.000 Where's his lower third?

01:55:05.000 Another headline.

01:55:06.000 Where's his lower third?

01:55:08.000 What I mean by that, people, is his name and his title.

01:55:10.000 These people have made up titles.

01:55:12.000 They are professional talking heads.

01:55:14.000 This is a man who actually serves as a representative.

01:55:17.000 Of a voting constituency.

01:55:18.000 Of the people.

01:55:19.000 And Van Jones.

01:55:20.000 Van Jones, lower third.

01:55:21.000 Let's hear Van Jones.

01:55:22.000 In real time, in front of millions of people.

01:55:24.000 It is very, very difficult.

01:55:25.000 They brought it up twice!

01:55:26.000 They changed it to give him a second title!

01:55:29.000 It's incredibly difficult to talk to somebody who is going to say things, sometimes they're true, sometimes they're not true.

01:55:35.000 I don't think anybody here thinks that Donald Trump is a paragon of truth-telling.

01:55:39.000 I thought Caitlyn did a masterful job.

01:55:41.000 She's a matador against a bull. 1.00

01:55:48.000 Let me do this. 0.99

01:55:49.000 Since CNN didn't have the balls to do it, we will. 0.97

01:55:51.000 That's U.S. 0.99

01:55:52.000 Congressman Byron Donalds proudly representing the Southwest Florida District 19.

01:55:58.000 You guys wouldn't put it up.

01:55:59.000 We will.

01:55:59.000 Good, and Anderson didn't even have to blow a guy to get his chyron.

01:56:05.000 Oh, shut up! 1.00

01:56:09.000 I'm jarred! 1.00

01:56:10.000 Sexism! 0.99

01:56:10.000 Here's the thing. 0.99

01:56:11.000 You know what, Gerald?

01:56:12.000 You would have been right if this was 2016. 1.00

01:56:15.000 People are tired of this shit. 1.00

01:56:16.000 People are tired of women always claiming the moral high ground by simply saying, I'm jarred. 1.00

01:56:20.000 I'm jarred.

01:56:21.000 I can't... Sexual abuse because he pecked me on the cheek. 0.96

01:56:25.000 I've been...

01:56:26.000 You're jarred and right now it's sexist that he just refuted her with facts.

01:56:29.000 Have you read the book?

01:56:31.000 It doesn't matter.

01:56:32.000 No one cares that you feel jarred.

01:56:34.000 You're wrong.

01:56:35.000 You're wrong.

01:56:36.000 They still haven't put his name up, by the way.

01:56:39.000 Chilling, jarred, unnerving, and disturbing.

01:56:42.000 They all drive you nuts.

01:56:43.000 I actually would say, this is what we wanted.

01:56:46.000 I swear to God, if they bring up David Axelrod's lower third, I'm going to lose my mind.

01:56:49.000 I'm going to lose my mind.

01:56:50.000 His base of power as a lawyer, I'd be deeply concerned.

01:56:53.000 No one deserves a lower third less than David Axelrod.

01:56:59.000 Is there anything that would exclude him?

01:57:02.000 Even if he is someone who Republican voters want back in office because of the things

01:57:06.000 he did in terms of policy, like could he go out and kill somebody?

01:57:10.000 Is there anything that you would consider beyond the pale?

01:57:17.000 Well, this is what people want, so those picadillos we're going to let alone.

01:57:21.000 At the end of the day, this is always going to be at the hands of the voters.

01:57:23.000 The voters are going to decide who they want to support.

01:57:26.000 Polling would dictate that they want to support Donald Trump by a wide margin in the Republican Party.

01:57:30.000 I will also say, the ABC polling is pretty clear that Americans writ large want to support him over Joe Biden.

01:57:36.000 This is the best guy I've ever seen on CNN.

01:57:38.000 As far as a Republican in the territory, he's the best.

01:57:41.000 They'll never have him back.

01:57:43.000 Or if they have him back, they're going to stack the deck like this.

01:57:45.000 Hey, let's have a white... This is what Bill Burr was talking about on SNL.

01:57:48.000 Let's have a white woman tell a black man that he doesn't understand what being oppressed is like. 0.60

01:57:53.000 Was it jarring? 0.95

01:57:53.000 I hope it wasn't jarring! 0.95

01:57:54.000 Or perhaps rattling?

01:57:55.000 Maybe it was unsettling!

01:57:56.000 and it will be very interesting to see do voters who may have forgotten what it felt

01:58:00.000 like for Donald Trump to be in the spotlight, do they come away from this feeling...

01:58:03.000 Was it jarring?

01:58:04.000 Was it jarring?

01:58:05.000 I hope it wasn't jarring, or perhaps rattling?

01:58:07.000 Maybe it was unsettling!

01:58:08.000 Dear God, I hope it wasn't unsettling!

01:58:11.000 All those words are used by people who have never been punched in the face.

01:58:13.000 Yes.

01:58:14.000 So that's what I was just going to say.

01:58:17.000 Look, you know, actually, you said if you left tonight, you'd say he did a great job, you know, because he spoke to his face.

01:58:22.000 I didn't say he did a great job, I said he spoke to his face.

01:58:25.000 He spoke to his face, yeah.

01:58:26.000 It's the same guy.

01:58:28.000 You were great in The Shield.

01:58:29.000 You were great in The Shield.

01:58:30.000 Also as good as The Thing and The Fantastic Four.

01:58:32.000 Disappointing film, but he gave a great performance.

01:58:34.000 He did.

01:58:34.000 He did alright.

01:58:34.000 Lifted it up a little.

01:58:35.000 Right?

01:58:36.000 He's going to need to speak to those.

01:58:37.000 So let me just kind of clarify something for you, and then we're going to go to Mug Club and take your chats.

01:58:41.000 What they just did, and I've talked about this quite a few times, because I got called in, by the way, to the second floor at Fox News, and second floor is where the executives work.

01:58:49.000 What David Axelrod just did, it's the opposite of stand-up, right?

01:58:52.000 You know the old quote in comedy is, I didn't learn comedy when I learned how to write.

01:58:56.000 I learned comedy when I learned how to edit.

01:58:57.000 Remember Phyllis Diller said that?

01:58:59.000 I think Jay Leno repeated it.

01:59:00.000 I don't know the original source.

01:59:01.000 But brevity is a soul of wit.

01:59:03.000 In cable news, it's the opposite.

01:59:04.000 What David Axelrod has been doing, what Van Jones has been doing, what Mrs. Tweety Bird, I've been jarred, is doing, is trying to buy up as much time as possible Before they ask a question.

01:59:15.000 They're trying to buy as much, take up as much air time as possible when they have an opponent who they know overmatches them.

01:59:21.000 I had this when I would appear on Fox News.

01:59:24.000 There was, I had a debate segment for I want to say it was a year with Alicia Menendez, Senator Bob Menendez's daughter.

01:59:29.000 Oh yeah.

01:59:29.000 And then at a certain point she worked for a company who said you probably shouldn't, don't do this anymore.

01:59:33.000 It was every Sunday.

01:59:34.000 Sometimes Tucker would actually host it.

01:59:35.000 He would fill in hosts for Clayton, Clayton Morris I believe was his name.

01:59:40.000 And the other guy was Chip, something Riggs, something Riggs, anyway I'm trying to give

01:59:43.000 you an Allison, Allison Camerota.

01:59:45.000 So they would do Fox and Friends Sundays.

01:59:47.000 And I got called in one time because what would happen is, is they would say things

01:59:50.000 like, well, you know, as someone who's been raised in a political family in Washington

01:59:54.000 D.C., insert 30 seconds on the clock.

01:59:56.000 And then rather than an argument, I remember one time specifically, it was tossed to me.

02:00:01.000 She said something like, and I don't know where Stephen got his college degree in the political sciences, and I responded with, never graduated grade school, what's your point?

02:00:15.000 And there was dead air.

02:00:16.000 And I was called to the second floor because I knew that that was the most effective course of action was to say, I see what you're doing.

02:00:22.000 I see you right now. 1.00

02:00:24.000 Ronnie James Dio this shit. 0.99

02:00:25.000 I said, I see exactly what you're doing. 1.00

02:00:26.000 I'm not even going to address the rest of psycho babble that you just spewed for 30 seconds to buy up time. 0.97

02:00:33.000 I'm going to address what you thought was your argument and try and make it look silly. 0.64

02:00:37.000 So the audience sees this appeal to authority fallacy.

02:00:40.000 I got called into the second floor.

02:00:41.000 I said, you know, you can't do that.

02:00:42.000 I said, what?

02:00:43.000 They said, this has been happening.

02:00:44.000 You know, people have been complaining that you're too quick, you're too short.

02:00:48.000 Not quick, meaning quick-witted.

02:00:49.000 They said, you're too short with your answers.

02:00:50.000 Look, there has to be a give and take.

02:00:52.000 There has to be a back and forth where you have to take some time.

02:00:54.000 They're not used to that.

02:00:56.000 This is how we do things.

02:00:57.000 And sometimes it would even put us in a quadrant view, even though we were in the same room.

02:01:01.000 One time I was with Lanny Davis, or it might have been Doug Schoen, where they wanted us to seem like we were in different cities.

02:01:06.000 And I reached from my quadrant into his and said, high five.

02:01:09.000 I got called into the second floor for that.

02:01:10.000 Yeah, they probably didn't like that.

02:01:12.000 It is a parlor trick and they told me don't try and keep the points brief, which is what resonates with people.

02:01:18.000 This is the difference.

02:01:19.000 Donald Trump resonates with people who will be voting for him.

02:01:21.000 That's why you see the polls widening.

02:01:23.000 That's why those people don't trust the polls. 0.89

02:01:24.000 They have a way of doing things.

02:01:26.000 They told me you need to do things this way.

02:01:29.000 When the American public, and by the way the average viewer, clearly has told them they don't want it that way.

02:01:35.000 I was told that I was being too short.

02:01:37.000 Imagine that!

02:01:37.000 They're going, can you take more air time?

02:01:39.000 I'm going, I don't want it!

02:01:41.000 But that's because you as a performer, you just know that the minute you start lying, the minute you start thinking that the audience is not as smart as you are, you are in big trouble.

02:01:51.000 Yes.

02:01:52.000 And the audience, the biggest mistake you can make as a performer is to think that your jokes or your performance or what you're saying is going to be over their head and you have to dumb it down.

02:02:03.000 Huge mistake, and that's what I see with CNN all the time.

02:02:06.000 They say things that people, including the people that watch CNN, look at and go, it's not jiving with reality, man.

02:02:12.000 You're trying to pull a fast one on me.

02:02:14.000 That's what they do, especially when they start talking a lot like Axelrod.

02:02:17.000 No, I think you're right.

02:02:18.000 This is an important technique.

02:02:19.000 Just if you see someone saying in 50 words what they can say in five, That person is likely dishonest.

02:02:25.000 That's right.

02:02:26.000 What you should do, if you want to edu- Gerald, you know this, when we do this show, we've- we've- basic- our blueprint is, watch what they do, and let's do the opposite.

02:02:34.000 They don't provide any- any- any evidence, we're going to make sure that all of our references are publicly available.

02:02:39.000 Everything is pre-taped and edited, we're going to do it live.

02:02:42.000 Oh, they want to take up as much time to make one point as possible, we're going to give you two, three, or four, and allow you to then deep dive it as much as you want, because they don't serve you, they serve themselves.

02:02:51.000 It's someone who likes to hear themselves talk.

02:02:54.000 That's what you saw tonight, and you saw the con- and by the way, of course Donald Trump likes to hear himself talk, but he's talking directly to the American public.

02:03:02.000 He wasn't talking to Caitlin Collins tonight, which I think was a very smart strategy on his part.

02:03:06.000 Unbelievably good, yeah.

02:03:07.000 Look, you make an example of her so that you convince the people watching.

02:03:11.000 You think you're going to convince that broad with the hairy forms? 1.00

02:03:13.000 There's nothing you can do that can change.

02:03:16.000 I bet you she walked off the stage and said, I'm with her. 0.73

02:03:18.000 I was jarred.

02:03:19.000 This was jarring for me.

02:03:21.000 And here's something I wanted to kind of go around and then we'll take some chats, of course, at lotofcreditor.com slash Mug Club.

02:03:27.000 Here's the real value, I would say, in CNN versus Fox News.

02:03:31.000 I used to have to kind of be coy about it.

02:03:32.000 Look, you know, I was there for a few years.

02:03:33.000 Okay.

02:03:35.000 At least with CNN, People see who he's fighting.

02:03:39.000 I think Donald Trump understood that if he would appear on Fox News, he would give them a platform, he would legitimize them, and he would legitimize the underhanded attacks.

02:03:47.000 I'm telling you that when I was at Fox News, it was a Romney-Obama election.

02:03:53.000 It was made known in no uncertain terms.

02:03:56.000 That I better get in line for Romney.

02:03:57.000 At that point, it was down to, I believe, Gingrich, Romney, Santorum.

02:03:59.000 And I told you, I wasn't a huge fan of any of them for a political candidate.

02:04:03.000 I think Rick Santorum's a decent guy.

02:04:05.000 I spent time with his family.

02:04:06.000 So I said, well, at this point, I think he would do better with the Rust Belt voters than Mitt Romney.

02:04:09.000 And I was right, by the way.

02:04:10.000 And I was told, no.

02:04:12.000 Nope.

02:04:13.000 Romney's our guy.

02:04:14.000 And if you go and watch the coverage, it was very clear.

02:04:16.000 They have made it clear, in no uncertain terms, that there is a hit out on Donald Trump, to try and kneecap him, to try and take him out, because he is now, for the first time, and maybe it's a result of ego.

02:04:26.000 Light has been shined on Fox News right now for what they are.

02:04:28.000 And tonight, at least Don... Sorry, I was about to say Don Lemon.

02:04:32.000 At least Donald Trump knew who he was fighting.

02:04:35.000 That's important.

02:04:36.000 He knew who he was fighting out there.

02:04:37.000 He wasn't fighting a ghost.

02:04:39.000 And he didn't want to legitimize a fake conservative outlet.

02:04:42.000 And by the way, it's not just Fox News.

02:04:43.000 You've heard us talk about this.

02:04:44.000 I'm not going to go back through it again.

02:04:46.000 But you know where we line up.

02:04:48.000 It's very important, and by the way, there's a huge value in having battle lines drawn, in having, not saying that all Republicans are good and all Democrats are bad, before you fence-sitters try and tell me, the two-party system, man, go to a parliamentary system, see how that works out, but there is a value in seeing a delineation in team jerseys and going, okay, you know what, hold on, at least I know where CNN lines up because I've heard everything that they've said, and Donald Trump is the other guy.

02:05:13.000 You have a whole panel of people A representative from Florida, and Donald Trump is the other guy.

02:05:18.000 Whereas on Fox News they would try and say, well you know, it's like the Anna Navarro thing, I'm a Republican except for every single policy, and I hate Donald Trump, and he's racist, and I can't believe Ben Jones took a picture with Candace Owens, I'm a Republican!

02:05:29.000 Right? 0.79

02:05:29.000 There's no, that's so dishonest. 0.79

02:05:32.000 This is why you rarely hear us go after MSNBC other than to laugh at Joy Reid's latest Swiffer haircut. 0.97

02:05:37.000 I have no problem with someone who says where they line up.

02:05:39.000 I don't.

02:05:40.000 The biggest problem I have is with turncoats, is with betrayers, is with people who claim to be something that they're not.

02:05:46.000 And at least tonight Donald Trump didn't have to grapple with that.

02:05:50.000 And so I think that's a win for him.

02:05:52.000 I want to see where you guys line up here tonight.

02:05:54.000 I will say this, myself, sorry, I'm leading the witness.

02:05:59.000 Unless DeSantis takes it hard to the media on election integrity, unless DeSantis takes it hard to the media on their bias and on, you know, for example, the double standard of classified documents, all that, but particularly election integrity.

02:06:14.000 I would vote for Donald Trump in the primaries.

02:06:16.000 If Donald Trump performs like he did tonight, it is over.

02:06:19.000 I'm not talking about performance, I'm saying that's required for me, that's mandatory for a Republican candidate to say, we need to have election integrity in this country.

02:06:27.000 So when I say performance, I don't mean just the performance, I mean answering the hard questions, I mean having the positions that he holds, and also being able to point back and be like, Donald Trump 2019 is what you'll be getting in round two.

02:06:39.000 You'll be getting the economy that I brought you for three years before COVID hit and before the world turned upside down, the most kind of jarring experience this generation, if I can borrow a term, has ever experienced.

02:06:50.000 You'll be getting Donald Trump 2019.

02:06:51.000 And it'll be more fun than ever because the media has been even more exposed and the Biden economy has been more exposed.

02:06:57.000 And by the way, really quickly, Joe Biden actually tweeted out There were not fine people on both sides of Charlottesville.

02:07:03.000 I don't remember him mentioning Charlottesville, by the way.

02:07:05.000 The January 6th rioters were not good people.

02:07:08.000 End of story.

02:07:10.000 Now, here's the thing.

02:07:10.000 Let's keep that up.

02:07:11.000 Let's keep that up.

02:07:12.000 When people try to say they're the party of nuance, Donald Trump said, I pardoned some of them.

02:07:17.000 I pardoned a lot of them.

02:07:18.000 I don't know all of them.

02:07:19.000 Some of them got out of hand.

02:07:20.000 Right?

02:07:21.000 That's actually far more couch than saying the January 6th rioters were not good people.

02:07:27.000 But it doesn't say there were peaceful people there.

02:07:29.000 The vast majority of whom, outside of federal agents, did not commit crimes.

02:07:29.000 Yeah.

02:07:33.000 That's a very broad brush.

02:07:35.000 One is saying, hey, I think a lot of people haven't gotten a fair shake.

02:07:39.000 The other is an incitement to violence.

02:07:41.000 That right there is an incitement to violence.

02:07:44.000 Because if you say that everyone there, January 6th, by the way, was it a quarter million people?

02:07:47.000 Was it over 200,000?

02:07:48.000 Some estimates had it close to 500,000, depending on who you... Let's use the low number, 200,000.

02:07:48.000 I know that.

02:07:52.000 You've now told the American public that It's open season on them.

02:07:58.000 They're bad people.

02:07:59.000 Let's other them. 1.00

02:08:00.000 Let's dehumanize them. 1.00

02:08:02.000 Let's treat them subhumanely. 0.89

02:08:03.000 Let's do that.

02:08:04.000 That's what that tweet just did.

02:08:06.000 Notice what he didn't say?

02:08:07.000 Be mostly peaceful?

02:08:08.000 Because he can't say that.

02:08:10.000 Kamala Harris didn't say that.

02:08:11.000 She said they should continue rioting.

02:08:13.000 Yeah, that's the proper response is what Kamala Harris said. 0.99

02:08:16.000 Look, people want to act like Joe Biden is a nice guy who's just bad. 1.00

02:08:20.000 No, this is evil, evil shit. 1.00

02:08:23.000 That right there is evil shit. 1.00

02:08:25.000 And he should know better if he's President of the United States. 1.00

02:08:27.000 Well, first of all, the double standard is Jarring.

02:08:31.000 And I never use that word.

02:08:33.000 But you use it all the time!

02:08:33.000 And I never use that word.

02:08:34.000 Okay, fine.

02:08:35.000 You have to drink.

02:08:36.000 Alright, fine, I'll drink.

02:08:37.000 But it's just, it's jarring.

02:08:38.000 But look, listen, I got two things to say.

02:08:40.000 Toolman, you have to drink.

02:08:41.000 It would be even better if you were drinking from a jar.

02:08:43.000 I know.

02:08:44.000 But I prefer my real glass, everyone.

02:08:46.000 So you're not a Pinterest wine mom?

02:08:48.000 No, of course not.

02:08:49.000 Not really.

02:08:50.000 This is my real, this is the way I really talk, actually.

02:08:52.000 I'm from England, yes.

02:08:53.000 I find that jarring.

02:08:54.000 I know.

02:08:54.000 It should be.

02:08:55.000 It's positively unsettling.

02:08:56.000 I hate to be so unnerving.

02:08:59.000 But, you know, if I could be... The one thing about me, I'm full of verve.

02:09:03.000 Yes, yes.

02:09:05.000 Oh! 0.99

02:09:06.000 Right in the genitals. 1.00

02:09:07.000 He hit me in my privates. 0.99

02:09:09.000 Battery! 0.98

02:09:09.000 Battery hit me in my genitals. 0.98

02:09:11.000 Keep using that voice. 0.99

02:09:12.000 See what else flies your way.

02:09:15.000 I know, an English accent.

02:09:16.000 I do believe that was a come on.

02:09:17.000 Yes, of course, I know. 0.99

02:09:17.000 That makes him gay! 0.99

02:09:18.000 My English accent makes him very horny. 1.00

02:09:20.000 That makes him gay! 1.00

02:09:21.000 Well, it makes him break rules. 0.98

02:09:22.000 You're doing a gay voice and then he says he's going to have a go at you. 0.58

02:09:24.000 I know, I know. 1.00

02:09:25.000 That means he likes to have sex with men. 0.99

02:09:26.000 It's not gay if I'm speaking this way. 1.00

02:09:29.000 It's gay of him. 0.96

02:09:30.000 Not you, but him. 0.99

02:09:31.000 No, this is more recreation.

02:09:33.000 It's just college stuff. 1.00

02:09:33.000 You're one of those homosexuals. 1.00

02:09:35.000 Yes. 1.00

02:09:36.000 Okay, sorry. 0.90

02:09:36.000 It's only gay and queer if you're smiling when you do it, and you know that. 0.90

02:09:39.000 Or looking in the eyes. 0.95

02:09:40.000 Or looking in the eyes.

02:09:41.000 You can be frowning but looking in the eyes, or you can be smiling and not looking in the eyes, but you can't be doing both.

02:09:45.000 Go ahead. 0.84

02:09:45.000 I'm so confused, but I'm horny. 0.84

02:09:46.000 Now listen, here's what I'd say.

02:09:49.000 I like that the grand experiment is alive and well.

02:09:53.000 Democracy is alive and well.

02:09:54.000 As long as we have this outrage on both sides, and we have all this stuff, including lies, it's never been different in our republic.

02:10:01.000 But I will say this.

02:10:02.000 I do think Donald Trump is the most divisive figure in American politics, in the history of our country.

02:10:10.000 If I had a choice between Donald Trump and DeSantis, I'm voting for DeSantis.

02:10:15.000 However, that's a fantasy.

02:10:17.000 Because if you think DeSantis has a chance in the primaries against Donald Trump, you got another thing coming.

02:10:22.000 So at the end of the day, this is going to be a redux.

02:10:25.000 This is going to be a redux.

02:10:26.000 It's going to be Biden-Trump once again.

02:10:29.000 And I think that's very winnable because you've got Biden is seen as a proxy.

02:10:35.000 He volunteered his, you know, retarded tribute for Obama. 0.98

02:10:37.000 And you have eight, then you have three, then you have another four of Biden. 0.81

02:10:41.000 People see the contrast.

02:10:42.000 I mean, the media will have to be working overtime, but it doesn't matter anymore. 1.00

02:10:48.000 It's like a monkey throwing shit. 1.00

02:10:50.000 Nobody watches them. 1.00

02:10:51.000 Trump, I will say this, Trump makes people, the left, so angry that it turns them into liars. 0.73

02:10:59.000 They compromise everything they're about.

02:11:02.000 They will do whatever it takes to get that guy out.

02:11:06.000 In their book...

02:11:07.000 They will do whatever it takes to get that guy out.

02:11:41.000 This that's that right there. It's your neck. I think you go for

02:11:45.000 Is that what it is?

02:11:45.000 It's going to be far worse in 2024 because guys, we have to band together.

02:11:49.000 We have to do whatever it takes to save democracy and keep Donald Trump out of office.

02:11:53.000 And they'll use that to justify, oh, you're a Trump supporter?

02:11:56.000 Bang.

02:11:56.000 We already saw that.

02:11:57.000 Trump corrupts, he corrupts the left. 0.89

02:12:01.000 He corrupts the, he corrupts mainstream corporate media because they will do whatever it takes. 0.98

02:12:08.000 And I think that they are digging their own grave.

02:12:10.000 You just touched on something very profound.

02:12:12.000 I think you're right.

02:12:12.000 And look, by the way, Donald Trump has a lot of flaws.

02:12:14.000 You can say the same thing about the Trump sycophants who will never acknowledge anything that he does that is a fault.

02:12:19.000 But like you said, he corrupts the left. 0.75

02:12:21.000 They lose their mind.

02:12:21.000 And here's why.

02:12:23.000 Because no one would argue this, right?

02:12:26.000 Including, they just said it tonight, using words like chaos, using words like Donald Trump has no respect, you know, for the rule of law or order.

02:12:34.000 That's what they'll say.

02:12:35.000 What do they mean to say, right?

02:12:37.000 Ultimately, the synonym for that, the word they mean to use is he's uncontrollable.

02:12:40.000 and the left is obsessed with control. They want to control what you eat, they want to control what

02:12:45.000 you drive, they want to control what your state, they want to control what level of authority you

02:12:49.000 have over your own children, over your own household, they want to control what you learn, 0.58

02:12:53.000 they want to control who pays for what you learn, they want to control what you can charge for rent

02:12:58.000 or if you can charge at all.

02:13:00.000 They want to control the past.

02:13:01.000 They want to control history.

02:13:02.000 They want to control the past, they want to control history, they want to control which history you... They want to control what is considered the truth, and when that's not allowed, they want to control new legislation to determine what is truthful, and we just heard the lies tonight.

02:13:13.000 Donald Trump is unco... If there is nothing else of value from Donald Trump, if you're a DeSantis person, and by the way, I like both of them to be clear.

02:13:21.000 I want both of them to play a role in national politics.

02:13:24.000 Also love the flying V.

02:13:27.000 Donald Trump, and I'll leave you with this, and by the way, you can go to lidowwithcrowder.com slash MugClub.

02:13:31.000 There's $10 off, it's $79 annually if you use the promo code CrowderTownHall, or if you never got your mug, if you signed up, let's say, a few months ago and, you know, you weren't able to get a refund, you can send in your screenshot, proof of purchase, to freemugclub at lidowwithcrowder.com and we will give you three months free.

02:13:48.000 That's how we know how to make it right.

02:13:50.000 Look, we are entirely funded by viewers like you and a few sponsors every now and then.

02:13:53.000 If there's nothing else to take from tonight, Both the left and the right are saying it, but in two different ways.

02:14:00.000 And you can like this, you can love it, you can hate it, you can take it or leave it.

02:14:04.000 The left has admitted they are obsessed with control.

02:14:09.000 And Donald Trump is uncontrollable.

02:14:11.000 And speaking of someone who is imminently controllable, before we go to Mug Club, and by the way, if you're watching on Rumble, just hit that little button right there.

02:14:18.000 Right down there, you hit that button, you get to keep watching for another 30, 45 minutes.

02:14:20.000 I don't know how long we're going to be going tonight.

02:14:23.000 Let's check in our last, we spared no expense, we paid for it.

02:14:29.000 We have our own camera right now at the White House.

02:14:31.000 Check in what's going on with President Biden.

02:14:34.000 And if you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black. 0.93
