  Speaker 1: Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have both been making their
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: closing arguments. For Kamala, it's a message of unity, hope,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: and check out who my friends are.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: A megawatt all-star lineup on the trail. You can see
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: some of the scenes right there.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: On your screen.
• 0:17
  Speaker 4: Performances from musicians like Mumford & Sons and Gracie Abrams.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: She has Glorilla out here. She has Cardi B, who
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: wasn't even going to vote four months ago.
• 0:28
  Speaker 5: Making a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live, playing the
• 0:31
  Speaker 5: mirror image of actress Maya Rudolph's version of her. She
• 0:34
  Speaker 5: is leaning on some big names like Katy Perry, Oprah,
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, The Roots, and others to help
• 0:40
  Speaker 5: get her across the finish line.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Ricky Martin. If you stole their
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: album on LimeWire, they're probably endorsing Kamala Harris. She's coming
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: for every last SoulCycle vote. Now, while Kamala's ending the
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: campaign on a note of joy and celebrity hype, Donald
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Trump's closing argument is that he's pissed at basically everyone.
• 1:02
  Speaker 6: Do you want to see me knock the hell out
• 1:04
  Speaker 6: of people backstage?
• 1:05
  Speaker 7: You're going to get a bunch of.
• 1:08
  Speaker 6: Crooks and horrible people. She's a dumb person. Guys like
• 1:12
  Speaker 6: Adam Shifty-Shift, he'll probably be a senator. Can you believe it?
• 1:15
  Speaker 6: Watermelon head. What an ugly guy, both inside and out.
• 1:19
  Speaker 6: It's a very demonic character. And I have this piece
• 1:23
  Speaker 6: of glass here. And to get me, somebody would have
• 1:28
  Speaker 6: to shoot through the fake news. And I don't mind
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: that so much.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: He's just casually joking about reporters getting shot.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: You know, I guess you'd be grouchy.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Too, if you had to do all your campaign events
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: encased in glass like a stick of deodorant at Walgreens.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: But Trump wasn't just giving off dark vibes. He was
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: also giving off a weird sexual energy.
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: I came in today, I said, and you know, this
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: is after four of these things I've been in, in
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: all fairness.
• 2:07
  Speaker 8: I mean, I'm a human being, right?
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: I come in, and here's the problem.
• 2:13
  Speaker 7: I said, oh man, it's too low.
• 2:15
  Speaker 8: I said, it's too low.
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: Way too low.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Way too low. What are we doing here, people?
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I hate to say it, but can we please go
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: back to the handjob routine, please? I mean, you know
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: a campaign has gone off the rails when you go
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: to watch C-SPAN and it asks if you're over 18.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: But blowing a mic stand isn't even the weirdest part
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: of his closing message.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: The weirdest part is.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: That with just a few days to go, he's now
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: telling us, oh, by the way, RFK Jr. is going
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: to do all the president stuff.
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: And I told the great guy, RFK Jr., I said, Bobby.
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: You work on women's health. You work on health. You
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: work on what we eat. You work on pesticides. You
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: work on everything. The one thing you have to let
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: me do, Bobby, I got to work the liquid gold.
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: You're not going to touch that.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: You're not going to touch that, no.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Let me work the liquid gold, Bobby.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Let me work it, let me work it.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, let me get this straight. So you're going
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: to give RFK Jr. women's health, regular health, food, pesticides,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: and quote, everything. And in return, you're just going to
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: suck all the oil out of the ground?
• 3:55
  Speaker 7: What?
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: This is a lot of new shit to drop on
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: us the day before Election Day. You spent two years
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: talking about tariffs, and now you're like, oh, by the way,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: the guy with brain worms is in charge of everybody's health.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: You need me, I'll be in Texas working the drills.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: You know, you might be thinking, Trump is just talking
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: out of his ass. But RFK Jr. doesn't think so,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: because unlike getting rid of a bear corpse... He's put
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of thought into this.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Over the weekend, Kennedy tweeted that the Trump administration would, quote,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: advise all U.S. water systems to remove fluoride from public
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: water on day one. The CDC recommends fluoride in water
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: as a cost-effective way to improve oral health.
• 4:37
  Speaker 9: Trump telling NBC News the fluoride removal idea, quote, sounds
• 4:41
  Speaker 9: okay to me.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: Does this sound okay?
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Again, this is two days before the election. We haven't
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: talked about this at all in the last 700 days,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: but suddenly the thing that's been normal in this country
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: for 80 years, it's.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Like, we're going to get rid of that on day one.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, where did this come from?
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Even the people who wrote Project 2025 were like, fluoride,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: did we put that in here? This whole campaign, I've
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: been prepping for the worst case scenario, but not the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: weirdest case scenario. Now I've got to worry about soft teeth.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: You know how many Trump rallies I've been to?
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Do you know how many?
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Do you know how many? Not once did I ever
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: hear him say, people's teeth are too hard, we're going
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: to fix that.
• 5:24
  Speaker 10: Never!
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Here's what we know.
• 5:27
  Speaker 10: Is that we don't really know anything and that we're
• 5:29
  Speaker 10: going to come out of this election and we're going
• 5:30
  Speaker 10: to make all kinds of pronouncements about what this country
• 5:32
  Speaker 10: is and what this world is. And the truth is,
• 5:35
  Speaker 10: we're not really going to know shit. And we're going
• 5:38
  Speaker 10: to make it seem like this is the finality of
• 5:41
  Speaker 10: our civilization and this and that. We're all going to
• 5:43
  Speaker 10: have to wake up tomorrow morning and work like hell
• 5:46
  Speaker 10: to move the world to the place that we prefer
• 5:49
  Speaker 10: it to be. And I just want to point out,
• 5:50
  Speaker 10: just as a matter of perspective, that the lessons that
• 5:54
  Speaker 10: our pundits... take away from these results, that they will
• 5:58
  Speaker 10: pronounce with certainty, will be wrong. And we have to
• 6:03
  Speaker 10: remember that. In 2008, when Barack Obama won.
• 6:10
  Speaker 10: There's no question that this is the beginning, the first
• 6:14
  Speaker 10: election of the future, really. And I think we are
• 6:16
  Speaker 10: moving towards a post-racial America. Yeah, that lasted a day.
• 6:23
  Speaker 10: And then, of course, in 2012, Obama won again. And
• 6:28
  Speaker 10: the lesson was.
• 6:29
  Speaker 11: The GOP needs to send a powerful signal to Hispanic
• 6:33
  Speaker 11: voters that the party respects them.
• 6:37
  Speaker 10: That was the lesson they learned after that victory.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: And they were certain of it.
• 6:43
  Speaker 10: And send a powerful signal to the Hispanic community, the
• 6:47
  Speaker 10: GOP did.
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: When Mexico sends its people, they're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime,
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: they're rapists.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Which apparently was the winning message.
• 6:58
  Speaker 10: And that taught Democrats in 2016 what?
• 7:02
  Speaker 12: Maybe what the Democrats will be looking for is somebody
• 7:04
  Speaker 12: with some inside experience, but who's a generation younger.
• 7:07
  Speaker 7: It's obviously going to be younger. It's going to be
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: from a new generation.
• 7:11
  Speaker 10: Need I say it?
• 7:13
  Speaker 11: With great honor and humility, I accept this nomination.
• 7:18
  Speaker 10: And that turned out to be a winning message again,
• 7:22
  Speaker 10: which led to an insurrection.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: And the lesson from that was.
• 7:27
  Speaker 10: When Donald Trump leaves office on Wednesday morning, he will
• 7:29
  Speaker 10: leave Washington a pariah.
• 7:31
  Speaker 13: Donald Trump will never be allowed to set foot in
• 7:35
  Speaker 13: the Capitol again.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Never.
• 7:39
  Speaker 7: Ever.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: My point is this. But this isn't the end.
• 7:48
  Speaker 10: I promise you, this is not the end. And we
• 7:53
  Speaker 10: have to regroup and we have to continue to fight and.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Continue to work day in.
• 8:02
  Speaker 10: And day out to create the better society for our children,
• 8:07
  Speaker 10: for this world, for this country. that we know is possible.
• 8:13
  Speaker 9: It's possible.
• 8:14
  Speaker 12: Yesterday was election day. We were all hoping it would
• 8:18
  Speaker 12: make history, and boy, did it ever.
• 8:20
  Speaker 8: Mr.
• 8:21
  Speaker 7: Trump made history last night.
• 8:22
  Speaker 14: He will be the first convicted felon to be president
• 8:25
  Speaker 14: of the United States.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's official.
• 8:39
  Speaker 12: America's elected its first criminal president before electing its first
• 8:44
  Speaker 12: female president.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: What a day for proud felonists. What the actual f
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: * * *, America?
• 8:54
  Speaker 12: We have had two qualified, accomplished women nominated for president,
• 8:58
  Speaker 12: and both times they lost to the worst man in
• 9:01
  Speaker 12: the whole country. At this point, it's starting to feel
• 9:13
  Speaker 12: like we're going to get every other first before we
• 9:16
  Speaker 12: get a first woman president. First Amish president. First Wahlberg president. Hey,
• 9:22
  Speaker 12: there's no rule that says a dog can't be president.
• 9:25
  Speaker 12: As long as it's a boy dog. But instead of
• 9:29
  Speaker 12: breaking the glass ceiling, last night America decided to get
• 9:32
  Speaker 12: back with her dirtbag ex. And I had no idea
• 9:36
  Speaker 12: how much she missed him.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Overnight, a stunning victory for Donald Trump.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Blowing through the so-called blue wall of Midwest states.
• 9:43
  Speaker 13: In county after county across the country and proving on
• 9:46
  Speaker 13: his margin of victory in past races.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: Suburban areas, rural areas, even big cities and bluer parts
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: of the map all tipped in his direction.
• 9:54
  Speaker 10: It is a sweeping and stunning victory unlike any in
• 9:57
  Speaker 10: our history. It will be studied and debated for generations.
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: Aww.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: We're going to last generations?
• 10:06
  Speaker 12: That is the optimism I was looking for.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Thanks, George Slopidopoulos. That's your legal name now.
• 10:17
  Speaker 12: But that's right, Trump is on track to win every
• 10:19
  Speaker 12: single swing state and the popular vote. Just like the
• 10:23
  Speaker 12: relationship between Trump and Eric, this one wasn't close at all.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Oh my God. I have four more years of Eric jokes.
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: F * * * me.
• 10:44
  Speaker 12: But just think about what happened here. America voted this
• 10:47
  Speaker 12: guy out in 2020. And what has he done since then?
• 10:50
  Speaker 12: He tried to overthrow the government. He was convicted of
• 10:53
  Speaker 12: 34 felonies. He spent an entire campaign promising vengeance against
• 10:58
  Speaker 12: his enemies. And if you're wondering who, after all of that,
• 11:01
  Speaker 12: would want to back him up, well, buckle up.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: It's a long list.
• 11:05
  Speaker 9: The former president winning with a coalition driven by white voters, men,
• 11:09
  Speaker 9: and first-time voters.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Young men in union households. Those older voters.
• 11:13
  Speaker 14: Voters age 45 to 64.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Those younger than the age of 30.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: Black men, Latino men, suburban women, Arab Americans, and white men.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: So, all of America.
• 11:25
  Speaker 8: All of America.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: You just listed all of America.
• 11:30
  Speaker 12: Seems the only group she can't blame for Trump's victory
• 11:32
  Speaker 12: are black women and people in comas. Oh, and puppies.
• 11:38
  Speaker 12: Or puppies in comas. God damn it, I just made
• 11:40
  Speaker 12: myself more sad. So it's undeniable that Trump gained with
• 11:45
  Speaker 12: practically every demographic.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: It's mind-boggling. But thankfully, cable news is.
• 11:50
  Speaker 12: On 24 hours a day, so pundits can incessantly play
• 11:53
  Speaker 12: the blame game.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: How did this happen?
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: I think Democrats went way too far to the left.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Got it.
• 12:00
  Speaker 12: Okay, Kamala was too far left. Didn't embrace centrists.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: It is perhaps the strategy so forcefully embracing Republicans like
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: the Liz Cheney's.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Okay, sorry.
• 12:13
  Speaker 12: I see she embraced centrists too much.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: What else?
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: She wouldn't really stand and back the Israelis.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: Uh-huh. She wasn't pro-Israel enough, all right?
• 12:28
  Speaker 9: The base of the party, it cares about Gaza, and they,
• 12:31
  Speaker 9: by not bringing a Palestinian on stage to the DNC,
• 12:33
  Speaker 9: these are not the value, the base values of the
• 12:36
  Speaker 9: Democratic Party.
• 12:37
  Speaker 12: Or pro-Palestinian enough.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, was that it?
• 12:42
  Speaker 8: I think that Kamala Harris had this albatross around her neck,
• 12:46
  Speaker 8: and it was Joe Biden. She couldn't distance herself from
• 12:50
  Speaker 8: Biden and couldn't think of anything that she would have
• 12:52
  Speaker 8: done differently.
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: Right, right, right, right.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: I see it now.
• 12:56
  Speaker 12: Kamala didn't distance herself enough from Joe Biden.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: And let me guess.
• 13:00
  Speaker 13: It is probably not the best idea that Democrats orchestrated
• 13:04
  Speaker 13: a very public stab fest, a proverbial stabbing in the
• 13:07
  Speaker 13: front of the sitting president of the United States of
• 13:10
  Speaker 13: America and then didn't use him in his hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania.
• 13:15
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 13:15
  Speaker 14: Mm-hmm.
• 13:16
  Speaker 12: So she betrayed Joe Biden, but was also too close
• 13:19
  Speaker 12: to Joe Biden.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Uh-huh. This is all making sense. If I just put
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: all the pieces together.
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: Who the f * * * knows?
• 13:27
  Speaker 14: Who knows? Yes!
• 13:41
  Speaker 12: Look, as productive as this feels right now, I'm not
• 13:46
  Speaker 12: really interested in gaming out how exactly this happened. This
• 13:50
  Speaker 12: defeat was so resounding that you could literally say anything,
• 13:53
  Speaker 12: and it wouldn't be plausible.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: She should have picked Mudeng for her VP. She should
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: have gone on the Hop to a Girl's podcast. Maybe
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: she visited Wisconsin too much. Sure, that makes sense. Why not? Honestly,
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: I don't really care why she lost. I care why
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: he won.
• 14:11
  Speaker 12: We have spent so much time diagnosing Donald Trump and
• 14:24
  Speaker 12: what his actions say about him.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: He's a dictator. He's a fascist.
• 14:28
  Speaker 12: He's a malignant narcissist whose blood type is fryer oil.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: But it's pretty clear.
• 14:35
  Speaker 12: That America is the one that needs the diagnosis because
• 14:39
  Speaker 12: whatever's wrong with him, we f * * *.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 14:43
  Speaker 12: In this moment, Donald Trump is holding up a mirror
• 14:46
  Speaker 12: to the American people, and it might be time to
• 14:48
  Speaker 12: take a good hard look.
• 14:52
  Speaker 7: It's a new day in America! Can you feel the delights?
• 14:58
  Speaker 7: All that sunshine and roses or whatever makes people happy?
• 15:02
  Speaker 13: No?
• 15:05
  Speaker 7: Okay, well, maybe you're not looking hot enough.
• 15:08
  Speaker 13: We're going to begin, though, with the start of the
• 15:10
  Speaker 13: something that makes this country so great when it happens.
• 15:13
  Speaker 10: We're talking about the promise of a peaceful transfer of power.
• 15:24
  Speaker 7: Whoa! Peaceful transfer of power.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Let's hear it for the bare minimum of a democracy.
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: The first step of this was Kamala Harris calling Donald
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: Trump to promise that she wouldn't do what he tried
• 15:39
  Speaker 7: to do.
• 15:40
  Speaker 12: The vice president called President-elect Trump to congratulate him.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: According to a senior Harris aide, the vice president discussed
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: the importance of a peaceful transfer of power.
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: Yes, Kamala called Trump, considered the race, and told him
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: there should be a peaceful transfer of power. And you know,
• 15:56
  Speaker 7: as soon as Trump hung up the phone, he was like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: that's great, f * * * pussies.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: So, I guess.
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: American democracy still works as long as the guy who
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: likes overthrowing the government wins the election because then he
• 16:12
  Speaker 7: won't overthrow the government. So, with the transfer happening, we're
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: going to be talking about Trump again every day for
• 16:19
  Speaker 7: another four years, I guess. And I, for one, did
• 16:24
  Speaker 7: not think that when I came out of the jungles
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: of Malaysia to do comedy that.
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: I would be making jokes about Donald Trump every.
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: Day for 13 years straight.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: 13 years. I don't talk about anybody as much.
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: I don't talk about my mom as much as I
• 16:42
  Speaker 7: talk about this guy. I don't talk about my wife
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: as much as I talk about this guy. My wife
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: thinks I'm having an emotional affair with him. I'm going
• 16:49
  Speaker 7: to be talking about this guy on my f *
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: * * ing.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Deathbed, okay?
• 16:51
  Speaker 7: Which I assume will be in three years when he
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: somehow brings back the bubonic plague.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: And you might be sitting at home saying, well, Ronnie.
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: Why don't you just shut the f * * *
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: up about Trump?
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: Well, for the same reason CNN doesn't shut the f
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: * * * up about him. Money! Lots and lots
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: of money!
• 17:10
  Speaker 7: So let's get these dollars right now and get back
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: to Donald Trump.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: And you know what?
• 17:14
  Speaker 7: Attitude is everything. I'm going to be optimistic. If Donald
• 17:18
  Speaker 7: Trump can get some good people around him this time,
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: maybe he'll do good for the country. I mean, who
• 17:24
  Speaker 7: is he getting to help him with the transition?
• 17:26
  Speaker 9: I'm going to be heavily involved on the transition process.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: Great.
• 17:35
  Speaker 7: It's take your dumb ass to work day. And what
• 17:39
  Speaker 7: qualifications would Don Jr.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: Be looking for?
• 17:44
  Speaker 9: I want to make sure now that we know who
• 17:46
  Speaker 9: the real players are, the people who will actually deliver
• 17:49
  Speaker 9: on the president's message, the people who don't think that
• 17:52
  Speaker 9: they know better than the duly elected president of the
• 17:55
  Speaker 9: United States.
• 17:57
  Speaker 7: Yeah, no more smart people. Only people who look at
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: my idiot dad and go, what a genius. And where
• 18:07
  Speaker 7: is Trump going to find people who will do whatever
• 18:09
  Speaker 7: he says? I mean, didn't they all die when they
• 18:11
  Speaker 7: injected themselves with bleach? So let's see who these people are.
• 18:16
  Speaker 14: 75 days from now, Trump returns to the White House,
• 18:18
  Speaker 14: and right now there is an intense focus on who
• 18:21
  Speaker 14: he will surround himself with. Florida Senator Marco Rubio, possibly
• 18:25
  Speaker 14: former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, maybe Secretary of Defense,
• 18:29
  Speaker 14: former Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf, perhaps reappointed.
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: Okay, okay. You know what?
• 18:36
  Speaker 7: Actually, not as bad as I expected. Marco Rubio, Mike Pompeo,
• 18:40
  Speaker 7: they're basically professional political administrators, right?
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: At least they're wearing suits and ties. It could be worse.
• 18:49
  Speaker 14: And then there's some, shall we say, more unusual names.
• 18:53
  Speaker 14: Steve Bannon, conspiracy nut Laura Loomer, Robert F.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: Kennedy Jr.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: and Elon Musk. Okay, yeah, it's worse.
• 19:00
  Speaker 7: Uh, This cabinet looks like the division of the X-Men
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: for the mutants who had too much mutation. They're like, hey,
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: what's your mutant power?
• 19:11
  Speaker 11: I just talk like this.
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: People trust me with their health.
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: Ugh.
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: Ugh. Okay, so this is the A-team, and other names
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: floated for his cabinet include Hannibal Lecter, the Menendez brothers,
• 19:29
  Speaker 7: the polio virus, and for Secretary of Transportation, a cyber
• 19:34
  Speaker 7: truck with a Hitler mustache.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Now, Don Jr. isn't the only one thinking about the transition.
• 19:40
  Speaker 7: So is the guy who has spent the last two
• 19:42
  Speaker 7: years trying to transition Trump into a prison cell.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Tonight, special counsel Jack Smith is now signaling he'll wind
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: down his two federal cases against President-elect Trump.
• 19:53
  Speaker 12: The January 6th criminal case and the classified documents case
• 19:56
  Speaker 12: are effectively over.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: DOJ guidelines are clear.
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: You cannot prosecute a sitting president.
• 20:02
  Speaker 7: Great.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Trump gets off with no punishment.
• 20:05
  Speaker 7: It's just as the famous quote says, the arc of
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: the moral universe is long, but it bends towards, sorry, we're.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Out of time.
• 20:14
  Speaker 7: He's president now. Apparently, you can just get away with
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: your crimes if you win the presidency. And that sound
• 20:20
  Speaker 7: you just heard is Diddy forming an exploratory committee for 2028.
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: I mean, he doesn't even need any policies. He just
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: hands out behind other people's policies going, uh-huh, yeah, yeah.
• 20:35
  Speaker 7: So not only does he get off on January 6th,
• 20:37
  Speaker 7: Trump also gets off on stolen documents. In fact, not
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: only are they not going to prosecute him, they have
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: to put the documents back where they found them, scattered
• 20:45
  Speaker 7: around his toilet in Mahalaga.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: Trump gets to be president.
• 20:49
  Speaker 7: He doesn't have to go to prison, which means he
• 20:51
  Speaker 7: doesn't have to sneak in a tanning bed up his rectum.
• 20:54
  Speaker 7: And probably the best part for him is having the
• 20:57
  Speaker 7: guy who kicked him out of the White House welcome
• 20:59
  Speaker 7: him back.
• 21:00
  Speaker 11: Yesterday, I spoke with President-elect Trump to congratulate him on
• 21:04
  Speaker 11: his victory. And I assured him that I'd direct my
• 21:08
  Speaker 11: entire administration to work with his team to ensure a
• 21:12
  Speaker 11: peaceful and orderly transition.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God, we get it, okay?
• 21:17
  Speaker 7: You f * * * ing people love transferring power peacefully.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: It's on and on about it.
• 21:23
  Speaker 7: Hey, maybe if Democrats tried an insurrection once in a while,
• 21:26
  Speaker 7: they could actually start winning something.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: Because, hey, apparently.
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: There's no punishment for it anyway. It's just a free shot.
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: I mean, if it works, you stay in office. And
• 21:40
  Speaker 7: if it doesn't, no harm, no foul. But, of course,
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: Joe Biden couldn't call it quits without reminding people that
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: his administration was about more than just you paying $ 50
• 21:48
  Speaker 7: for eggs.
• 21:50
  Speaker 11: Much of the work we've done is already being felt
• 21:53
  Speaker 11: by the American people. The vast majority of it will
• 21:55
  Speaker 11: not be felt over the next 10 years. We have
• 21:59
  Speaker 11: legislation we passed. It's just only now just really kicking in.
• 22:06
  Speaker 10: Cool.
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: All his good decisions are kicking in just in time
• 22:10
  Speaker 7: for Donald Trump to take credit for them. Perfect execution
• 22:13
  Speaker 7: as usual, Democrats.
