Summary

Trump targets the African-American Mayor s of cities across the country. What does that have to do with race? Is it because they re black or because they're racist? And why is it that Trump only targets the black mayor s of Black cities?


Transcript

00:00:00.500 Trump only threatening cities with black mayors.
00:00:04.860 Okay, this is not going to end well for Sharpton.
00:00:06.860 But let's play this clip here, Rob.
00:00:09.220 I'm sure you got it, right?
00:00:10.280 This is what Sharpton said about the president, I believe, on Morning Joke.
00:00:14.960 Go ahead, Rob.
00:00:15.940 It's got a lot talking about how I've condemned a lot of what was going on in Chicago back in the day and other points.
00:00:22.760 It's not about crime.
00:00:23.760 But when you have this consistent pattern that you're only going after black mayors,
00:00:29.240 now you're going to fight Westmore.
00:00:31.280 I mean, the pattern here is clear, particularly when the data shows that crime is down in these cities.
00:00:39.300 And you should be saying, why can't I work with the mayors?
00:00:42.720 The wise political strategy is to start picking off some of these mayors that can say,
00:00:47.580 Trump's not that bad, we're working together.
00:00:50.120 He doesn't want that.
00:00:51.860 And it's clear he's doing it at the expense of people.
00:00:55.900 Okay, so...
00:00:57.640 Does that work?
00:00:58.320 Like, Al Sharpton is just there to say everybody's racist.
00:01:01.920 Like, they just...
00:01:02.680 Every time anything like this comes out, they just wheel him out.
00:01:06.680 Can we be honest with each other?
00:01:08.260 He's talking about all the mayors of all these cities, and he's going after black...
00:01:12.560 Okay, D.C. mayor is African-American, correct?
00:01:17.640 New York City mayor is what?
00:01:20.200 African-American.
00:01:20.640 African-American.
00:01:21.420 Philadelphia mayor.
00:01:22.920 Cheryl Parker.
00:01:23.840 African-American.
00:01:24.920 Los Angeles.
00:01:25.980 Karen Bass.
00:01:26.880 African-American.
00:01:27.780 Chicago.
00:01:28.320 Brandon Johnson.
00:01:29.140 Well, guess what?
00:01:30.080 You guys are effing up.
00:01:31.580 And I'm sorry, but when somebody points it out, you have to be like, oh, it's racist.
00:01:35.320 No.
00:01:36.060 He's not going after it because of the race.
00:01:38.180 Clean up your effing city.
00:01:39.540 For some reason, you guys just feel like, nah, let's just keep it crazy.
00:01:43.020 Let's keep it dirty.
00:01:43.880 Let's keep everybody on freaking welfare and everybody killing each other because we're going to keep getting federal funding.
00:01:49.120 No.
00:01:50.040 I'm tired of that.
00:01:51.060 And I looked it up.
00:01:52.260 I'm like, wait a minute.
00:01:53.140 Is he really going after them because they're racist?
00:01:55.140 Because he's racist?
00:01:56.360 No.
00:01:56.920 They're all African-American.
00:01:58.100 It seems like, hey, why aren't you taking care of your people in your city?
00:02:01.800 Okay?
00:02:02.160 Everything is like, no, don't look at me.
00:02:03.460 Look at me.
00:02:04.120 Trump.
00:02:04.820 Trump bad.
00:02:05.460 Trump bad.
00:02:05.860 No, no.
00:02:06.320 You suck at your job.
00:02:07.540 And that's what it is.
00:02:08.260 By the way, believe it or not, the way he put that, he brought the pressure on African-American mayors of cities.
00:02:18.020 So there's a pattern.
00:02:19.540 It's not that he's targeting them.
00:02:21.180 It's the fact that it's African-American mayors, for whatever reason, I don't know why, crime is high in those cities.
00:02:28.280 So you might say, well, that's because it's mainly African-Americans.
00:02:31.140 You really want to continue going?
00:02:32.700 This is not going to end well for you as you're going through this slippery slope.
00:02:37.960 Then they have to use the racist card.
00:02:39.880 No, you're just being racist, right?
00:02:41.240 Now, let me show you something here about what local Chicago folks who are sick and tired of their mayor, and they're asking for Trump to come.
00:02:50.280 And you tell me if these guys look like Trump voters.
00:02:54.820 They're just sick of it.
00:02:56.020 They're like safety over politics.
00:02:58.180 Finally, common sense.
00:02:59.580 Look how she calls him out.
00:03:01.420 Go ahead, Rob.
00:03:01.820 Play this clip.
00:03:02.360 You all stood up there and said you would not allow Trump to come in here and get these illegals.
00:03:09.840 Yeah, you can smile.
00:03:11.140 We're in a billion-dollar deficit.
00:03:12.920 And you spent half of our money, half of that, on illegals.
00:03:18.940 You campaigned.
00:03:20.040 You campaigned and doubled down that you would not raise property taxes.
00:03:25.420 Well, I wouldn't raise your property taxes.
00:03:27.340 You wanted to raise our taxes $300 million.
00:03:30.900 They shut it down.
00:03:32.220 Now we back here for $150 million.
00:03:34.500 I love it.
00:03:34.780 Okay, see, this is what we're asking now.
00:03:39.540 Since you want to crash out, some of y'all said y'all willing to go to jail for it.
00:03:44.040 Trump, Tom Holman, make an example of this right here first.
00:03:50.140 Please come here first.
00:03:51.460 We're going to spend all tax dollars to go, Michael Rob Reedy, you said to take Trump to court to protect these illegals.
00:04:00.940 That's cool because we're about to make all of y'all all of this famous.
00:04:04.400 Y'all think that this house is going to run?
00:04:05.940 I think not.
00:04:07.480 Oh, I love that.
00:04:08.140 Let's Chicago Reeds.
00:04:09.140 I love it.
00:04:11.000 This is what's going to happen to you.
00:04:12.440 You got Kash Patel and Pam Bundy that you're going to have to deal with sooner than later.
00:04:19.520 Then it's going to be an audit.
00:04:22.320 Next, it's going to be an investigation.
00:04:25.780 Then it's going to be an indictment.
00:04:28.860 Commission.
00:04:29.720 That's what's going to happen to you.
00:04:31.400 By the way, now they are going to call that guy an Uncle Tom.
00:04:38.720 100%.
00:04:39.080 And they're going to call these guys racist.
00:04:41.420 So when they use the racist word, watch what this guy does.
00:04:45.200 Rob, again, Chicago, crime.
00:04:47.720 Just so you know, I'm going to show you something from a story of somebody in D.C.
00:04:51.120 D.C. goes 12 straight days without murder following the Trump's capital crime crackdown.
00:04:54.960 Rob, go back to that clip.
00:04:56.120 I want to stay on this racist thing with Chicago.
00:04:58.100 Watch this other clip I just sent you.
00:04:59.820 There's another clip I sent you of a guy that's questioning him, that he doesn't want to answer the question.
00:05:06.520 And then they show a clip afterwards of what he campaigned on.
00:05:10.620 This is Chicago's mayor.
00:05:12.140 Again, I've been to Chicago 100 times the last 25 years.
00:05:16.840 I had so many offices in Chicago.
00:05:18.640 I almost bought a house in Naperville.
00:05:20.220 I wanted to move to Naperville.
00:05:21.840 I have offices in Oakbrook and Des Plaines.
00:05:24.260 You name it.
00:05:24.620 We had all over the place.
00:05:26.440 I used to go and stay at the same exact hotel.
00:05:28.140 I have so many great memories of Chicago the last 25 years.
00:05:32.660 I would like to see the city be great again.
00:05:34.780 There's a big Assyrian community there.
00:05:36.440 There's a big Middle Eastern community there.
00:05:38.300 Watch this right here, Rob.
00:05:39.240 Play this clip.
00:05:40.440 Why are you a racist?
00:05:42.800 Mayor Johnson.
00:05:43.780 Yeah.
00:05:44.740 Please turn the mic on.
00:05:46.160 Thank you.
00:05:47.100 Real Chicagoans woke up this morning relieved that the Department of Justice is finally
00:05:51.860 investigating your race hustle.
00:05:54.800 As someone who grew up on the south side of Chicago, I've heard a lot of race hustlers
00:05:59.120 in my life, trust me, but they were usually marching around outside of City Hall, which
00:06:04.300 is what makes this so embarrassing and dangerous.
00:06:10.180 For over a year, real Chicagoans, white and black, have been telling me that your black
00:06:15.720 power rhetoric is bringing the city backwards from a place that-
00:06:20.000 We need the question.
00:06:20.920 Had overcome.
00:06:21.980 You want the question?
00:06:23.060 Please.
00:06:23.940 Real Chicagoans want to know, why are you a racist?
00:06:27.700 You know, first of all, I reject the idea and the premise that somehow that that's an
00:06:31.420 actual legitimate question.
00:06:33.100 Okay.
00:06:33.740 Do me a favor, Rob.
00:06:34.440 Pause it right there.
00:06:35.760 Fast forward to when he's explaining himself, because the gentleman is going to ask the same
00:06:38.920 exact question twice.
00:06:39.860 So you can skip that.
00:06:40.600 Keep going.
00:06:40.980 Keep going.
00:06:41.340 Keep going.
00:06:42.160 Go to the part where he's sitting to the right.
00:06:44.220 Keep going.
00:06:44.800 It's about to come up right there.
00:06:46.700 Okay.
00:06:47.440 Play it from right there.
00:06:48.400 Go ahead, Rob.
00:06:49.460 One employer of our people is our people.
00:06:54.340 What I'm saying is when you hire our people, we always look out for everybody else.
00:07:00.300 We are the most generous people on the planet.
00:07:03.540 The deputy mayor is a black woman.
00:07:06.500 Department of Planning and Development is a black woman.
00:07:09.380 Infrastructure deputy mayor is a black woman.
00:07:11.220 Chief operations officer is a black man.
00:07:13.380 Budget director is a black woman.
00:07:14.720 Senior advisor is a black man.
00:07:16.620 One thing that I know for sure that I have to do over these next two years, every single
00:07:21.360 dime that our people have been robbed of, I want to make sure that that is returned two,
00:07:28.340 threefold.
00:07:29.340 We have six developers that have received the first $30 million for investment.
00:07:35.040 Five out of six.
00:07:35.840 Six developers.
00:07:36.560 Of those six developers, five of them are black and three are women.
00:07:41.040 Boa Construction received the...
00:07:42.720 Okay, you can pause it right there.
00:07:43.920 You get the idea of what's going on.
00:07:46.100 And then they're saying, well, he's only targeting black mayors.
00:07:50.180 Sharpton.
00:07:50.880 He's only giving money to blacks and only taking on blacks.
00:07:53.860 And if you're white, he ain't targeting you.
00:07:56.000 So what does that mean?
00:07:57.220 Who's the more racist one there?
00:07:58.900 See, this is where logic and data comes out and they lose the argument.
00:08:01.980 Tom, your thoughts on the story here.
00:08:03.200 Well, you know, what's really funny is Trump is picking on statistics that are showing that
00:08:11.860 citizens are, have enough and are living in horrible situations.
00:08:18.260 Washington, D.C.
00:08:20.040 How many clips do we need of people that say, this is better.
00:08:24.840 They're actually making the police work hard.
00:08:26.640 The police were kind of casual.
00:08:28.220 And we now know we've seen individuals produce what they claim is evidence that allegedly all
00:08:36.000 these crime stats were being fudged in D.C.
00:08:39.400 So it was actually worse.
00:08:41.320 And then when Al Sharpton comes out like this, Al doesn't want more than a five minute interview.
00:08:47.420 And I would tell you why, because he's claiming Trump is racist and you want to go into the
00:08:53.400 statistics and crime.
00:08:54.860 If you want to go in the statistics in Philadelphia and in Chicago, you don't want to go in and
00:09:01.520 look at the victims and the perpetrators because black on black violence is at the top of the
00:09:08.340 statistical list.
00:09:09.740 More of the crime, unfortunately, tragically, is black on black.
00:09:14.680 And so you want to go there, Al?
00:09:17.100 This doesn't end well.
00:09:18.780 It's sad.
00:09:20.280 The communities need infrastructure.
00:09:23.280 They need school investment.
00:09:25.160 They need strong mayors that are colorblind to bring it back.
00:09:28.940 And right now, you need the National Guard to restore order so you can even get to first
00:09:35.540 base.
00:09:36.360 That's what I think.
00:09:37.320 And I think Al Sharpton is so disingenuous.
00:09:40.480 If it's a half hour, if those were a half hour news shows going A to Z, he is at the
00:09:47.320 end of it with nothing to say and completely, completely exposed for just his comments about
00:09:56.880 racism.
00:09:57.960 He's the one with the dog whistle.
00:09:59.920 He's the one that's race baiting.
00:10:01.460 He's the one that's trying to make it a racial issue when all we're doing is we're looking
00:10:05.940 at the statistics in certain cities and people that need help.
00:10:09.660 And the president is saying...
00:10:11.460 I thought you were going to go to data.
00:10:12.540 I thought you were going to show some stats.
00:10:13.680 Can you go to chat, GBT, please, Rob?
00:10:15.400 Did you have...
00:10:15.900 I thought you had some numbers you were going to show.
00:10:17.680 Can you...
00:10:18.000 Because, Tom, you prompted something very good.
00:10:19.920 What percentage of Chicago's population is black?
00:10:22.160 Can we look that up?
00:10:23.060 It's about a third of it, Pat.
00:10:24.280 I actually did some research.
00:10:25.860 I want to look at this here.
00:10:26.880 What percentage of Chicago's population is black?
00:10:30.460 Okay?
00:10:31.400 Let's say it's going to be 28, 29%.
00:10:34.080 Yeah.
00:10:34.560 Okay, 28, 29%.
00:10:36.060 Perfect.
00:10:37.140 What percentage of the crime in Chicago is from the black community?
00:10:42.940 Maybe Sharpton's right.
00:10:44.260 Uh-oh.
00:10:44.660 So let's validate him.
00:10:46.100 Let's give him some credibility and maybe we're wrong and he's right.
00:10:48.920 And if you look at this, go a little bit lower.
00:10:55.700 Okay, so black Chicagoans are 20 times more likely to be a homicide victim compared to white residents.
00:11:01.580 Victims.
00:11:02.160 77% of homicide victims in the same period were black.
00:11:05.960 Go back up.
00:11:06.620 Go back up.
00:11:07.140 You missed the paddle again.
00:11:08.020 26% of individuals are black.
00:11:09.460 But they're responsible for 51.3% of the murders.
00:11:13.660 51.3% of black...
00:11:15.920 Wow.
00:11:16.980 That's a FBI stat.
00:11:18.440 I was hoping to show Al Sharpton that he's right and maybe Trump is targeting them.
00:11:23.060 But Al, this is...
00:11:24.700 Man, ChadGBT's racist.
00:11:26.620 100%.
00:11:27.060 Oh, it's totally racist.
00:11:28.000 ChadGBT's racist.
00:11:29.140 I mean, ChadGBT even has the audacity to spew data like this.
00:11:33.640 So how do we fix this?
00:11:35.020 That's the question.
00:11:36.260 The way you fix it is what?
00:11:38.000 To have more black mayors to go in there to tell them they're victims and it's the white man's fault?
00:11:42.160 Nope.
00:11:42.760 Is that the solution?
00:11:43.620 Has that worked for how many years?
00:11:45.740 26, 27, 25 cities out of top 30 crime cities in America ran by a Democratic mayor?
00:11:53.120 I don't know what percentage is black.
00:11:54.740 We can find that out.
00:11:56.120 But the point is, the more you start saying things like that without giving data, it just ends up backfiring on you.
00:12:04.220 And then ChadGBT put some numbers out there like, oh, shoot.
00:12:07.600 Maybe this is not a good angle I should have taken.
00:12:09.580 Can we get to the next subject?
00:12:10.660 Let's talk about something else.
00:12:12.340 Let's talk about a different story here.
00:12:13.700 Adam, did you have any thoughts on this?
00:12:14.820 I do.
00:12:15.600 Well, words have power.
00:12:17.600 You've said this before.
00:12:18.580 But certain words, they lose all their power once they're overused or inflated.
00:12:24.800 Or it just becomes completely diluted to the point where it's lost its complete meaning.
00:12:29.920 And one of those words specifically is racist.
00:12:33.040 Right?
00:12:33.220 So, like, you'll hear, like, for instance, when you interviewed Bibi Netanyahu, literally interviewing Hitler.
00:12:40.580 Literally.
00:12:42.220 Bibi is Hitler.
00:12:43.160 Literally.
00:12:44.080 Well, clearly you don't know the word literally.
00:12:46.840 And to draw a comparison between Bibi, who's doing a press conference or doing a podcast with Hitler, remind me when Hitler was doing podcasts and basically explaining himself to the world.
00:12:59.100 Literally Hitler.
00:12:59.940 So, when you call someone racist, Trump is racist.
00:13:03.060 Trump is Hitler.
00:13:04.400 How many times have you heard that?
00:13:05.920 It's so absurd to me.
00:13:07.560 And it's so powerless and toothless and becomes completely watered down that it loses its meaning.
00:13:15.700 So, what I say when it comes to racism, do you remember when Basif and Yusuf, we had our little engagement over there, and he's like, you're racist.
00:13:22.740 I'm like, why?
00:13:23.420 Because I think certain countries in the Middle East are more focused on GDP and they're doing well, like Gulf countries.
00:13:29.520 And certain countries are more focused on terrorism and GDP, and they're not doing so well.
00:13:34.940 That's racist.
00:13:35.860 No, that's data, buddy.
00:13:37.620 So, to me, it's only racist if you single out one group.
00:13:42.320 It's not racist if you make fun of everybody.
00:13:45.140 When I was doing stand-up, much like Vinny does, I would call out black, white, Mexican, yellow.
00:13:50.800 It's only racist if you single out one group.
00:13:53.680 And flip it, why is it that someone like Al Sharpton is only singling out one group, white presidents?
00:14:00.120 So, to me, he's toothless and loses his meaning.
00:14:03.180 It's unfortunate because there's a couple things that happens with social media and with ChadGBT and these searches that you can do.
00:14:11.820 Nowadays, at any given point, somebody can watch somebody say something on CNN, MSNBC, Fox, and I'm like, is that true?
00:14:17.420 Let me go do it.
00:14:18.320 Oh, no, that's wrong.
00:14:19.960 Is that true?
00:14:20.580 Oh, no.
00:14:22.400 For 20 years, I've been listening to you.
00:14:23.980 You've been lying.
00:14:24.800 Is that true?
00:14:26.140 Is that true?
00:14:27.060 Oh, my God.
00:14:28.280 So, that is the beautiful part about data, that people get to come back and show numbers, and then you get to make a decision for yourself.
00:14:38.860 And trust me, the people that are doing it right, they don't like this type of data.
00:14:43.220 I was in insurance, and a lot of times, you know, it was Medicare insurance, Armenian this, Armenian that.
00:14:49.160 It's like, you know what?
00:14:50.340 It's not wrong.
00:14:51.860 It's not wrong.
00:14:52.840 There was a lot of it going on in Glendale, North Hollywood, a lot of these places.
00:14:57.180 It was.
00:14:57.980 So, what are we going to say?
00:14:59.040 That's everybody?
00:14:59.960 No, that doesn't mean it's everybody.
00:15:02.000 But that does mean a bigger percentage does it, and it needs to be addressed.
00:15:06.660 And there's nothing wrong with that.
00:15:08.200 Somebody needs to address it.
00:15:09.400 Hopefully, the right people will.
00:15:11.100 Once a year, we get together.
00:15:12.840 I can't wait to see everybody this year.
00:15:14.900 This is going to be the biggest one by a mile.
