Transcript

00:00:00.000 all right i'm not going to take up much of your time this will be this will be kind of short
00:00:12.280 but i was just uh i was just putting on a shirt in my closet which is not important to the story
00:00:20.340 i'm just letting people come in here so i'm going to tell the story like like people are bad at
00:00:25.780 telling stories because i'm stalling until there are more people in here well i was putting on a
00:00:31.660 shirt in my closet you know you know the people who always start with the part that doesn't matter
00:00:36.220 it was a blue shirt couldn't find my good green shirt i was putting on the shirt in the closet
00:00:41.800 all right as soon as there are 3 000 of you here live i've got to share with you just about the
00:00:50.260 funniest thing i've ever seen i've been i've been laughing so hard i've been crying in my closet
00:00:56.080 about this so apparently um well we're close enough so apparently president trump was on dan
00:01:02.960 bongino's uh podcast it must have been last night and mark knoller is dollar dollar knoller is uh
00:01:12.440 tweets this out and so this is a quote uh this is a quote from president trump
00:01:20.240 when asked about the joe biden uh allegations against him president trump said quote i would
00:01:29.040 just say to joe biden just go out and fight it
00:01:32.420 uh says president trump of sexual assault allegations against the democrat
00:01:40.000 interviewed on dan bongino's podcast president said of biden in a way you could say i'm sticking
00:01:46.600 up for him
00:01:47.280 all right if that's not the funniest thing you've ever heard in your whole life
00:01:57.540 now let me explain why this is so funny because
00:02:01.920 if if president trump had said yeah joe biden is guilty that would that would totally open up trump
00:02:13.540 for the same accusations and you know that would just be automatic right so trump didn't really have
00:02:19.780 a play to talk about it at all because the more he talked about it the more people would say well
00:02:25.700 what about you what about you you know president trump so
00:02:30.540 once again this is like the rosie
00:02:33.600 this is very much like the rosie o'donnell play
00:02:37.740 and i swear to god there should be some kind of
00:02:42.300 hall of fame for like best political
00:02:45.640 plays or something so i remember the uh the rosie o'donnell
00:02:49.940 play where you know he was asked a serious question about you know
00:02:53.880 incidents with women and he just moved it over to
00:02:57.120 something that's so ridiculous and so funny
00:03:00.340 that you can't take your eyes away from it
00:03:03.280 because it's so ridiculous he just said
00:03:05.440 now it's only rosie o'donnell it wasn't true
00:03:08.320 it was just ridiculous so you couldn't even remember what the original question was after a while
00:03:14.800 because it wasn't nearly as interesting as that ridiculous thing
00:03:17.920 he just said and and what was this what's similar about it
00:03:22.600 is that you couldn't imagine there was any way houdini could get out of that question
00:03:28.580 before he used the rosie o'donnell escape hatch
00:03:32.440 it just didn't look like it was possible
00:03:34.800 and then you see joe biden being credibly accused
00:03:41.160 and this is the funny part because it's so credible
00:03:43.420 credibly accused of sexual misconduct
00:03:46.600 and the president again he's trapped
00:03:49.060 what are you going to do you can't not talk about it
00:03:52.480 right that's another thing
00:03:55.080 and you can't you can't go hard at it
00:03:57.820 because then they just go hard at you
00:03:59.580 and you can't say
00:04:02.520 you can't say he might be
00:04:05.180 innocent
00:04:06.100 or can you
00:04:08.360 or can you
00:04:10.700 there's nobody else in the world
00:04:12.820 who would have found that path
00:04:14.980 and it's so
00:04:16.460 so perfect
00:04:17.960 all right
00:04:19.020 now i realize i'm in i'm totally into fanboy
00:04:22.120 territory here
00:04:23.760 but i like to i like to keep the fan stuff
00:04:26.600 to the communications part of what he does
00:04:29.300 you can you can make your own decisions about policies
00:04:32.340 you know half the time i don't even have an opinion on a lot of the policies
00:04:36.200 because what do i know
00:04:37.460 about trade deals and whatnot
00:04:39.580 but when you see communication that is
00:04:42.820 or or strategy plus communication
00:04:45.440 in this case and also humor
00:04:47.120 that is this is this well executed
00:04:49.700 this is like once in a lifetime stuff
00:04:52.320 you're seeing you're seeing the best
00:04:54.340 maybe the best you'll ever see
00:04:56.740 all right so let me let me just finish why this is so brilliant
00:04:59.540 so by taking the unexpected path
00:05:03.520 trump does what he always does
00:05:06.060 you can't look away
00:05:07.800 because he refuses to do
00:05:10.560 what you expect him to do
00:05:12.080 and what normal people would do
00:05:13.640 so he decides to defend
00:05:15.600 to defend biden
00:05:17.400 how in the world could this
00:05:20.120 so he can honestly say
00:05:23.960 i'm defending biden
00:05:25.600 what a great guy i am
00:05:26.760 and and he can
00:05:29.160 he has a perfectly philosophically pure argument
00:05:32.420 that it's up to biden to defend himself
00:05:35.280 it's not up to president trump
00:05:37.760 we do acknowledge that there are lots of
00:05:40.280 false rumors in this world
00:05:42.320 russiagate
00:05:44.480 you know just to name a few
00:05:45.880 and so
00:05:48.140 the president is embracing biden
00:05:50.880 in the in the way that biden would least want to ever be embraced
00:05:55.140 which is ironic in and of itself
00:05:57.820 so the president
00:05:59.020 is using as a kill shot
00:06:01.500 just just think about the beauty of this
00:06:03.940 the president is using as a kill shot
00:06:07.560 that his opponent is just like him
00:06:10.920 do you do you understand
00:06:14.500 how sublime that is
00:06:16.560 because
00:06:18.360 there's only there's only one person in the race
00:06:22.060 who can survive
00:06:23.620 being just like trump
00:06:25.800 and it's not joe biden
00:06:27.740 so the so the more the more trump says
00:06:31.400 yeah we're like brothers
00:06:33.060 we're practically the same guy
00:06:35.660 i lie he lies
00:06:37.900 i've got some allegations
00:06:39.480 he's got some allegations
00:06:40.880 you know when you come to think about it
00:06:42.960 i've got his back
00:06:44.940 we're practically bros
00:06:46.680 now
00:06:49.060 you could
00:06:50.760 this this is like somebody getting out of the escape room
00:06:54.440 when there's actually no escape
00:06:56.000 you know when there actually isn't any way to get out of the escape room
00:06:59.200 and somehow he's out
00:07:00.160 like how the hell did he find this path
00:07:02.720 you
00:07:03.500 in a million years
00:07:05.280 if you said
00:07:07.260 if you
00:07:07.820 if you uh
00:07:08.920 you hired the best consultants in the world
00:07:11.440 think about this
00:07:13.820 the way you know that this came from him
00:07:17.680 and did not come from an advisor or a paid consultant
00:07:21.600 is that no paid consultant could come up with this plan
00:07:25.580 because it's just too good
00:07:27.580 and only only trump could pull it off
00:07:30.540 because i think he's he's self-aware
00:07:33.980 that there can only be one trump
00:07:36.740 it's like highlander
00:07:38.060 it's like freaking highlander
00:07:44.440 yeah
00:07:45.120 there can only be one
00:07:46.520 and it's not going to be biden
00:07:49.080 and this comes
00:07:52.460 and this comes on the same day
00:07:56.600 that biden basically confessed that he was guilty of the
00:08:00.020 of the allegations
00:08:01.060 so it's even more absurd
00:08:02.960 yeah
00:08:03.900 in my opinion he confessed
00:08:05.840 because of the way he worded it
00:08:07.260 when he said
00:08:07.820 you know
00:08:08.680 why did
00:08:09.100 why is this coming up
00:08:10.880 this
00:08:11.980 what's this
00:08:13.320 if it didn't happen
00:08:14.080 why are you saying this coming up 27 years later
00:08:16.580 so anyway
00:08:18.100 that's just
00:08:19.080 that was my opinion
00:08:20.040 that he admitted it
00:08:21.640 not his opinion
00:08:22.400 but
00:08:23.380 on a day when it couldn't get any worse
00:08:25.640 for joe
00:08:26.120 and
00:08:26.440 the wheels are completely off
00:08:29.660 he has to have a caretaker
00:08:31.660 sitting next to him
00:08:32.560 to do his
00:08:33.060 his live streams
00:08:35.340 from his
00:08:35.800 his basement
00:08:37.320 where i think
00:08:38.980 i don't know if he's quarantined
00:08:40.280 or they've locked him in there
00:08:41.440 but they should have taken his phone away
00:08:44.120 because i don't think anybody knows
00:08:45.500 that he's still talking to the world
00:08:46.820 but
00:08:47.780 but on the day that
00:08:49.120 on the day that nothing could get worse
00:08:51.340 for joe biden
00:08:52.180 he's being accused of
00:08:53.880 maybe trying to hide the records
00:08:56.260 in delaware
00:08:57.020 i mean really
00:08:57.840 it couldn't be a worse day
00:08:59.920 and what does president trump do
00:09:01.920 it's like
00:09:02.640 in a way i'm kind of defending him
00:09:04.360 oh it is so over
00:09:10.980 it is so over
00:09:12.820 my god
00:09:14.400 oh
00:09:16.260 anyway
00:09:17.540 i don't have any other topic
00:09:19.860 i just had to share with you
00:09:22.600 this
00:09:22.880 this
00:09:23.400 if you're being honest
00:09:26.700 even his critics
00:09:29.100 no matter what they think of him
00:09:31.600 you know
00:09:32.540 no matter what they think of his policies
00:09:34.300 and whatever they think his mental processes are
00:09:37.440 no matter what you think of him
00:09:39.560 this was brilliant
00:09:42.100 i mean this was just brilliant
00:09:45.200 you know
00:09:46.360 and
00:09:46.760 it's one for the ages
00:09:48.700 in my opinion
00:09:49.460 and you know
00:09:50.940 if anybody's new to
00:09:52.520 watching my periscopes
00:09:53.660 i've been pretty brutal
00:09:54.840 i'm brutal about the president
00:09:56.840 on you know
00:09:57.620 some of the task force
00:09:59.120 and coronavirus stuff
00:10:00.240 so it's not like i'm just supporting him
00:10:02.280 you know wildly
00:10:03.060 no matter what
00:10:03.960 but communication wise
00:10:05.700 every now and then
00:10:07.680 he pulls something like this
00:10:09.680 out of the hat
00:10:10.280 that you just can't even imagine
00:10:12.020 anybody else would have done
00:10:13.180 anyway
00:10:13.600 that's enough of that
00:10:14.760 I'll talk to you tonight
