On today's episode, we'll dive into Donald Trump's latest comments casting doubt on the integrity of the 2024 presidential election. In a recent interview, the former president refused to unconditionally accept the potential results, setting the stage for more "rigged election" claims.We'll also break down Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s desperate "No Spoiler Pledge" proposal, where he audaciously called on President Biden to withdraw from the race if polls show Kennedy performing better against Trump. It's a long-shot strategy that's about as likely as Trump admitting the 2020 reality.Plus, we'll revisit the no-holds-barred roast billionaire Jeffrey Katzenberg delivered, comparing Trump to Hitler while praising Biden as "one of the most decent human beings." He even floated pulling the mic at debates to rein in Trump's interruptions.It's another wild installment of 2024 chaos, filled with delusional candidates, outrageous tactics, and the age-old inability to simply accept facts. Strap in for all the unbelievable comments and proposals defining this iteration of the never-ending campaign circus!

00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:10.039
Calarogu Shark Media from Washington, DC, where the only thing more delusional than

2
00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:15.640
Trump's election claims is RFK Junior's campaign
strategy. This is valid. Donald Trump

3
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:19.600
is still refusing to commit to accepting
the election results if he loses, while

4
00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:23.199
Robert F. Kennedy Junior had the
bright idea to call on President Biden to

5
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:29.000
just drop out of the race,
let's hit this. In a recent interview

6
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:33.399
with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Trump
refused to unconditionally accept the results of the

7
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:39.439
upcoming twenty twenty four presidential election because
apparently the concept of a peaceful transfer of

8
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:44.679
power is just too mainstream for him. Trump's exact words were, if everything's

9
00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:49.039
honest, I'll gladly accept the results. I don't change on that, But

10
00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:52.600
then he added the kicker, if
it's not, you have to fight for

11
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:57.880
the right of the country. So
basically, he'll accept the results unless he

12
00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:02.640
loses, then it's time to break
out the tinfoil hats and start screaming about

13
00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:07.319
fraud. Trump also couldn't resist the
urge to repeat his false claims about winning

14
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:11.120
Wisconsin in the twenty twenty election.
If you go back and look at all

15
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:14.840
of the things that had been found
out. It showed that I won the

16
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:19.239
election in Wisconsin, he said,
conveniently ignoring the fact that multiple recounts,

17
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.599
audits, and court cases have proven
otherwise. And just in case anyone was

18
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:27.400
still on the fence about his delusions, Trump added, it also showed I

19
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:33.040
won the election in other locations,
right, because why stop at just one

20
00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:37.680
state when you can claim victory in
the entire country. It's like watching a

21
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:41.959
toddler insists they won a game of
Candyland, even though everyone saw them skip

22
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:46.439
half the board and eat the cards. Except instead of a sugary children's game,

23
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:49.920
we're talking about the highest office in
the land. You know, you'd

24
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:56.280
think that after inciting an insurrection and
facing multiple criminal investigations, Trump might want

25
00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.319
to lay low for a while,
But nope, He's still out there,

26
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:05.599
sewing doubts about the integrity of our
elections and making a mockery of our democracy.

27
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.919
It's almost as if he's allergic to
the truth, like if he ever

28
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:14.000
accidentally uttered a factual statement, he
might break out in hives or something.

29
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:17.800
Maybe that's why he surrounds himself with
yes men and sycophants. They act as

30
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:23.319
a buffer against reality. But here's
the thing. No matter how many times

31
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:27.439
Trump claims he won, no matter
how loudly he shouts about fraud, it

32
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:30.439
doesn't change the fact that he lost. So, Donald, if you're listening

33
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:35.520
to this, here's some free advice. Put down the Twitter, step away

34
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:40.599
from the conspiracy theories, and maybe
take up a nice, calming hobby entertainment

35
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:46.199
mogul. Jeffrey Katzenberg unloaded on Donald
Trump and Joe Biden in that special way

36
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:50.439
only a blunt billionaire can on Trump, someone he claims to have known for

37
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:53.520
fifty years. Katzenberg didn't mince words. He went on to call Trump a

38
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:58.960
catastrophe who openly says and does whatever
horrible thing he's thinking, and, in

39
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:02.960
a blistering compareion, Katzenberg even like
in Trump's harsh rhetoric and agenda to the

40
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:07.120
rise of Hitler and the Nazis.
As for President Biden, it was a

41
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:13.400
much rosier assessment, with Katzenberg calling
him one of the most decent human beings

42
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:17.680
he knows after forty plus years of
friendship. When asked about potential changes to

43
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:23.199
the debate rules to reign in Trump's
bluster, Katzenberg floated a simple solution.

44
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:28.039
If you have two minutes to speak, you speak, and then at the

45
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:32.400
end of two minutes, the mic
go's dead. Robert F. Kennedy Junior,

46
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:38.080
the independent candidate who's currently trailing President
Joe Biden by a whopping thirty points

47
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:42.520
in the polls, has a bold
new strategy call on Biden to drop out

48
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:46.879
of the race to stop Donald Trump
from reclaiming the White House because apparently the

49
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:50.639
best way to beat Trump is to
hand him the election on a silver platter.

50
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.439
In a thirty minute presentation on campaign
polling, which I'm sure was riveting,

51
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:59.599
Kennedy declared, we only have one
chance to beat Donald Trump, and

52
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:01.680
we need nominee who can get the
job done, and that would be me,

53
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:06.840
right, because nothing says electable like
a candidate who's polling in the single

54
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:13.199
digits. Kennedy then called on Biden
to take a no spoiler pledge and withdraw

55
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:15.600
from the race if he were to
perform worse than Kennedy in a head to

56
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:20.600
head matchup with Trump in a massive
poll in mid October, because apparently the

57
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.279
best way to determine who should be
the nominee is through a single poll,

58
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:30.079
not through the democratic process of primaries
and elections. Of course, Kennedy was

59
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:32.959
quick to point out that he would
be happy to make a similar appeal to

60
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:38.399
Trump, but that the former president
is not a spoiler because he can actually

61
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:44.600
win. Ouch. Talk about a
backhanded compliment. It's clear that Kennedy's presentation

62
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:48.079
was aimed at responding to attacks from
both parties about his potential to swing the

63
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:55.160
general election. Trump has been particularly
vocal in recent days saying that supporting Kennedy

64
00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:59.519
is a wasted vote, and Democrats
have even set up an operation with veteran

65
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:03.279
campaigns strategists to combat third party threats
like Kennedy. But let's be real,

66
00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:08.800
Kennedy's proposal for Biden to drop out
is about as realistic as Trump admitting he

67
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:14.399
lost the twenty twenty election. If
