When even Fox News says Trump flip-flopped

WEBVTT

1
00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:10.599
Calarogu shark media from Washington, DC, where even Fox News is calling Trump

2
00:00:10.640 --> 00:00:14.439
a flip blopper. This is ballot, that's right. The man who never

3
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:18.079
said lock her up is now all
in favor of mail and voting. Next

4
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:25.079
he'll claim he never hosted the Apprentice. Let's hit this, Jimmy Fallon said.

5
00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:29.519
The big question now is whether Trump
will get jail time or house arrest.

6
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:34.039
If he's sentenced to jail, millenia
will be inside the courtroom chanting four

7
00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:38.840
more years. Trump will be sentenced
on July eleventh, and his lawyers told

8
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:42.640
him you should get your affairs in
order. Trump was like, that's what

9
00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:47.159
got me in trouble in the first
place. Seth Meyers added, that's right.

10
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:51.679
Former President Trump was found guilty last
week on thirty four counts of falsifying

11
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:55.679
business records and faces up to four
years in jail and a five thousand dollars

12
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:59.119
fine. And I think I speak
for all of us when I say you

13
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:03.320
can wave the fine. It looks
like old Joe has finally found the perfect

14
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:07.319
insult for his twenty twenty four foe, calling Trump a convicted felon seeking the

15
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:14.079
presidency. Ouch them's fighting words from
sleepy Joe. You can just picture Biden

16
00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:18.239
rehearsing that zinger in the mirror.
You're a convict, Donald a criminal U

17
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:23.879
A felon guy nailed it. His
aides probably had to talk him down from

18
00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:27.239
calling Trump the dreaded malarkey pedlar again. But let's be real. While the

19
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:33.000
convicted felon dig packs some punch,
Biden really went for the psychological juggular by

20
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:37.400
claiming something snapped in Trump after twenty
twenty. That's some master level shade from

21
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:41.920
the vampire slaying cornpop pop president.
I can see it now, Biden hunched

22
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:48.079
over an old oak desk, feverishly
scribbling insults like unhinged and literally driving him

23
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:52.239
crazy between bites of his morning Jello
cup, the Leader of the Free World

24
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:57.159
doing some hardcore armchair analysis on Trump's
crumbling mental state. Thanks Doc, Though

25
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:01.159
you do have to admire Joey's chutzpah
in calling out Trump's attacks on the justice

26
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:07.519
system as reckless and dangerous. That's
some A plus pot kettle action from the

27
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:10.439
guy who threatened to beat up a
voter and started shoving matches during the twenty

28
00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:16.840
twenty debates. Still bonus points for
hitting Trump with the classic They're just mad

29
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:23.039
they lost line about the rigged claims, an oldie but a goodie that every

30
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.560
president from Lincoln to Obama has surely
deployed at some point. At this rate,

31
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.639
I fully expect Biden's next event to
feature sobercas like the former guy Donelost

32
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:37.439
his marbles and trumpty dumpty boo frigity
boo. The insul comic tours just getting

33
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:42.240
warmed up, folks. I'm kind
of mad I had missed this one.

34
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:46.120
Look who decided to take a break
from his legal woes and play ringside VIP

35
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:51.120
at UFC three h two None other
than the newly convicted felon himself, Donald

36
00:02:51.199 --> 00:02:55.639
J. Trump. Two days after
that bombshell guilty verdict in the hush money

37
00:02:55.680 --> 00:03:00.919
case, there was the former president
living his best life court side with Dana

38
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:06.240
White and the UFC boys. Because
when you're an alleged criminal mastermind fresh off

39
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.520
thirty four felony counts, what better
way to celebrate than by chumming it up

40
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:15.319
with muscle bound punchers. I can
just picture it. Trump rolling up to

41
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:20.120
the Prudential Center, flanked by security
goons, smirking away as the crowd rains

42
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:23.680
down a smattering of ironic cheers.
Gotta imagine at least a few anti Trump

43
00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:29.479
protesters were in that mix, getting
their chance drowned out by bloodlust. Then

44
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:34.319
it was Donnie Tuoscoops making his royal
procession past the riff raft, shaking hands

45
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:38.599
with dlist comedians nobody's heard of,
giving his best pained rictus grin to the

46
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:46.120
little people's as he makes his way
to the VIP section, living the dream,

47
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:50.120
but the cringiest part having to bear
hug it out with his old pal

48
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.840
Dana White, who I'm sure tried
valiantly not to get any of that convicted

49
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:58.960
felon stank on his affliction tee.
Or watch Trumpty Dumpty warmly greeting commentators before

50
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:03.080
they spend the next four glorifying brain
injuries. It's also on brand, and

51
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:08.039
of course the desperate suck up routine
from fighters jumping at the chance to shill

52
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:12.039
out to the disgraced ex president mid
event. You're the man. What they're

53
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:15.599
doing as a travesty, Let me
donate to your legal fund that's inevitably just

54
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:19.199
going to your personal coffers. Gotta
respect the hustle, if not the morals

55
00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:25.439
man, you know Trump is a
flip flopper when even Fox News is calling

56
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:28.759
you a flip flopper. When I
did the prep for today's show, I

57
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:32.839
couldn't believe the source, good old
RNC Pravda itself. It seems former President

58
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:36.639
Trump is making a major strategic shift
when it comes to early and absentee voting

59
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:42.399
for the twenty twenty four election.
His new Swamp the Vote USA effort with

60
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:46.240
the RNC is a one hundred and
eighty from his staunch opposition to mail in

61
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:49.720
ballots and early in person voting just
a few years ago. Back in twenty

62
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:55.399
twenty, Trump was screaming from the
rooftops that early and mail voting were rife

63
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:59.959
with massive fraud and solely to blame
for his loss to Biden. He painted

64
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:04.279
them as shady, corrupt processes that
Republicans should avoid at all costs. But

65
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:10.480
now the former president is doing a
complete one hundred and eighty, practically begging

66
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:15.720
his supporters to take advantage of every
possible voting method absentee, mail, in,

67
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:19.199
early, in person, you name
it. It's an absolutely dizzying pivot

68
00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:26.120
from the election was rigged by mail
ballots to everybody better request mail ballots asap.

69
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:30.879
Can you imagine Trump rehearsing these new
talking points. No, no,

70
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.879
say it like you mean it,
Donnie. We love early voting. It's

71
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:39.759
the only way to swamp those radical
Dems. See doesn't that feel better than

72
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:44.879
calling it a corrupt hoax? You
just know there were some intense strategy sessions

73
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:49.480
where aids finally convince the former president
that suppressing his own bases vote is not

74
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:55.480
a winning strategy. Early voting numbers
favoring Dems was probably a harsh wake up

75
00:05:55.480 --> 00:06:00.240
call. Still, the sheer audacity
of Trump's reversal is pretty staggering. One

76
00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:04.439
minute he's screeching that mail ballots caused
his huge loss. The next He's insisting

77
00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:10.120
massive early turnout is Republicanism's only hope. You can practically hear the wing nuts

78
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:15.160
head spinning. Of course, knowing
Trump, he'll continue hedging with vague illusions

79
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:19.639
that early voting can still be rigged
if not done the right way. Whatever

80
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:35.519
allows him to sow just enough doubt
to keep those grievance fires stoked. Yikes,

81
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:41.079
it seems tensions are running extremely high
at the Hunter Biden trial. The

82
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:46.399
confrontation between his wife Melissa and former
Trump aid Garrett Ziegler was nothing short of

83
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:51.160
explosive. I can just picture the
scene Melissa's spotting Ziegler, the man who

84
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:56.920
helped weaponize her husband's personal data against
his father, lurking in the courthouse hallway,

85
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:01.120
her anger and protective instincts flaring,
She marches right up and lets him

86
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:06.800
have it with a vicious you Nazi
piece of shit ouch throwing around the word.

87
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:11.319
Any n word is never a good
look, even directed at someone who

88
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.680
arguably enabled an unethical political hit job. Still, you can't help but empathize

89
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:20.439
with Melissa's raw emotion in that moment. Ziegler's mere presence had to be like

90
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:25.839
a visceral trigger given his role in
the laptop leak scheme. On the other

91
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:32.279
hand, Ziegler, keeping his cool
and not engaging speaks Volumes two now was

92
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:36.879
deploying the Nazi insult over the line, perhaps, but in the heat of

93
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:42.439
the moment, with open emotional wounds
surrounding her family, it's hard to blame

94
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:47.160
her word choice either. Ziegler and
his ilk knowingly caused deep personal harm through

95
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:56.160
unscrupulous means. Although portions of today's
program were created with the help of AI,

96
00:07:56.759 --> 00:09:22.000
none of It was created with the
help of Nazis
