In this episode of Ballot, we explore the latest political gaffes and legal challenges facing President Biden and former President Trump. We'll break down Biden's awkward teleprompter moment, where he accidentally read the words "four more years, pause" during a speech, sparking a wave of online reactions. We'll also dive into Trump's legal woes as he faces potential fines for violating a gag order and touts his past work with the Teamsters union. Plus, we'll discuss Trump's praise for key witness David Pecker and the former president's case for presidential immunity. Join us for a humorous look at the never-ending circus of American politics.

00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:11.279
Callaroga Shark Media from Washington, DC, where presidential gaps are the new normal
2
00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:14.720
and legal woes are just another day
in the life of a former president.
3
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:19.120
This is Balid. We've got a
jam packed show for you. First up,
4
00:00:19.239 --> 00:00:23.960
we'll explore President Biden's recent teleprompter gaff, where he accidentally read the words
5
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:29.160
four more years pause during a speech, channeling his inner ron Burgundy. We'll
6
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:34.280
also delve into Donald Trump's latest legal
conundrum as he faces the possibility of fines
7
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:38.200
for violating a gag order in the
New York hush money case. Plus,
8
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:42.359
we'll take a look at Trump's trip
down memory lane as he reminisces about his
9
00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:50.600
day's building with the Teamsters union and
praises key witness David Pecker. After six
10
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:54.719
months of delays, the House and
Senate passed a major aid package to Ukraine
11
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:59.159
this week. Ronnie Ching joked,
I salute you, Mike Johnson. I
12
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:00.920
mean not now, but six months
from now, when I work up the
13
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:07.200
courage to do it. Ronnie also
joked about the Biden administration's new rules requiring
14
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:11.799
cash refunds for air travelers. Ronnie
said, this is the greatest thing the
15
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:15.719
government has ever done. In history. Thank you, Joe Biden, Thank
16
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:18.879
you for making my life better.
Now, just bring back Roe v.
17
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.280
Wade so I don't have to sit
next to a crying baby on the Red
18
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.760
Eye. Since ballot is nothing but
fair today, I'll make fun of Biden
19
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:30.640
first. During a recent speech at
a trade union conference in Washington, DC,
20
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:34.920
Biden appeared to read the words four
more years pause directly from the screen,
21
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:40.239
resulting in an awkward moment that quickly
went viral. The Leader of the
22
00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:44.200
Free world just pulled a Ron Burgundy. Of course, the Internet wasted no
23
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:48.920
time in reacting to Biden's blunder.
Some mocked the president, while others expressed
24
00:01:48.920 --> 00:01:53.359
concern over his mental fitness. Will
Biden start incorporating stage directions into his speeches
25
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:59.879
four score and seven years ago,
cross stage left and gesture emphatically. Early
26
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:04.200
in the week, Biden said,
I don't know why we're surprised by Trump.
27
00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:08.080
How many times does he have to
prove we can't be trusted. Joe
28
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:13.199
had some jokes of his own,
saying Trump described the Dobbs decision as a
29
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:16.319
miracle, referring to the Supreme Court
case that overturned Roe v. Wade.
30
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:22.360
Maybe it's coming from that bible he's
trying to sell. I almost wanted to
31
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:25.159
buy one, just to see what
the hell's in it. Meanwhile, Donald
32
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:30.199
Trump is facing yet another legal conundrum. This time it's all about his ability
33
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:35.240
to keep his mouth shut. The
former president has been slapped with a gag
34
00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:38.919
order in the New York criminal hush
money case, and now he's claiming that
35
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:43.439
his constitutional rights have been taken away. When reporters asked Trump if he would
36
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:46.599
pay fines if a judge finds that
he violated the gag order, his response
37
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:51.879
was a resounding I have no idea, but don't worry. He didn't stop
38
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:54.240
there. He went on to claim
that the gag order is nothing more than
39
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:59.800
election interference. Now I'm no legal
expert, but I'm pretty sure that a
40
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:02.719
gagag order isn't the same thing as
election interference. It's more like a court
41
00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:07.840
mandated shush to keep Trump from saying
something that could jeopardize his own case.
42
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:12.360
But let's be real here, asking
Donald Trump to stay quiet is like asking
43
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:15.919
a rooster not to crow at sunrise. It's just not in his nature.
44
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:20.759
The man thrives on attention and controversy, and a little thing like a gag
45
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.280
order isn't going to stop him from
speaking his mind. Trump is taking a
46
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:29.759
break from his legal woes to reminisce
about his glory days in the construction industry,
47
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:34.840
proudly declaring that he built a lot
of buildings with teamsters. And let's
48
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:38.199
not forget about David Pecker, the
former tabloid publisher and key witness in the
49
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:44.039
hush money trial against Trump. When
asked about Pecker, Trump had nothing but
50
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:47.879
praise, calling him a nice guy
twice. Because if there's one thing we
51
00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:52.840
know about Trump, it's that he
likes to repeat himself. But here's the
52
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:57.159
real kicker. As Trump was speaking
to reporters, his fans were chanting,
53
00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:00.840
we want Trump and USA. It's
like they forgot they were at a press
54
00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:04.879
conference and thought they were at a
rally. I half expected them to start
55
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:10.639
chanting lock her up at any moment. That's it for today. Portions of
