Take Trump at His Word

could predict the patterns of our politics? And I knew when, you know, I could take a break versus when I could not. And oh, it's going to be the holiday, so it's going to be slow. No, none of that is happening and hasn't happened in quite some fucking time. So let's get into it with some of the stories of this week. So, the defense has rested in Donald Trump's electoral interference case aka the hush money case. They provided two witnesses, and now after the Memorial Day weekend,

we will begin closing arguments. You know, I'm being asked, do I think that Donald Trump is going to go to jail? No, folks, I don't I don't ever think that Donald Trump is going to go to jail. I think that Donald Trump could commit murder in front of you know, eleven thousand cameras, and I don't think that Donald Trump would go to jail. When Donald Trump said so many moons ago that he could kill somebody in the middle of Fifth Avenue and watch his poll numbers rise, yeah,

we all laughed at it. It was fucking true. So what do I think the outcome of this case is going to be. I have no idea. I have faith in New Yorkers above all other people in the country because I am one, but you know, I have no idea.

I hope that the prosecution can lay out a very clear closing argument, kind of set it up in the way of a series finale of a show and connecting all of the dots and dotting all of their eyes and crossing all of their te's to make the jury aware of what this case has always been about, which is the fact not that Donald Trump fucked a porn star. I could care less right whether he did or did not, not whether he had an affair or not, whether he

lied to his wife. But the fact is is that Donald Trump lied, used campaign finance money in order to cover up said lie. And he wasn't lying to protect his wife because who gives a fuck about her. He was lying so that the American public would not see a pattern of behavior following the Access Hollywood tape. That's

what the fuck he was doing. And So if we bring ourselves back to twenty sixteen and how close that election was, do we think that learning more about who Donald Trump is what he had done in order to get into the position that he then would later arrive in as president of the United States? Would he have had that ability if we had all known the truth. Now, while I believe that the Access Hollywood tape should have been a fuck enough to debt his entire campaign and

his presidential prospects, America thought otherwise. So, you know, I think that what is important for the prosecution to do when they come back for oral arguments is to wrap this up the way that fucking Shonda Rhimes did Scandal, so that it's clear, you know what happened, you know why it happens, and you have no other choice but to convict, right, because anything less than a guilty verdict in this case, which we know Donald Trump will appeal

at nauseum, but anything less than a guilty verdict is going to be spun into a win for Donald Trump. So that's what folks need to be taking into consideration. I don't know where the fuck this goes, because I'm not a fortune teller and I can't read the tea leaves, and every time I try, you know what, fate would have it, things go in another direction. Speaking of Donald

Trump and his campaign. So there's a story right now that is going around that both the Biden campaign is trying to take advantage of as well as mainstream media is finally paying attention to it, which is the fact that on his broke down social media platform that Donald Trump retweeted a video that was done about how Maga

is gonna make the world better again. There'll be no war, They'll be you know, economic relief, there'll be a deportation of fifteen million undocumented people, so on and so forth. It'll just be you know, amazing in America again. Yeah, read the fine print. If you're white, if you're straight, if you're sis, if you're a man, you know all of those things. And if you're wealthy, right, everyone else dot dot dot nonetheless, in this fucking video that Donald

Trump would find himself fucking resharing. It talks about America not just being great again, but being under a united Reich. And when you think of Reich ore Ei c h. What does that conjure memories of Oh, I will tell you at Conjure's memories Hitler and the Third Reich, you know, their final order of business, where the Germans were going to hold power for thousands and thousands of years. This

is what Donald Trump has re shared. And when his campaign was met with some questions about, you know, his allegiance to Nazism and white supremacy, they say, oh, Donald Trump didn't post this, It was posted by his staffer. And even though again it was brought to their attention how this was very reminiscent of Hitler, they kept up the post until just recently on his social media page. Here's what I want to alert people to. Donald Trump is not hinting at being like Hitler. Donald Trump is

like Hitler. Right, Donald Trump is not pretending to tell his white supremacist people to stand back and stand by. He is directing them to do so. Right. When Donald Trump says that he wants to be a dictator on

day one. It's not a joke. He actually will be a dictator on day It will be the last election that we have when his former you know, greasy fucking attorney's attorneys tell the truth and say, yeah, Donald Trump talks about, you know, brags about you being able to use the FBI as his own gestapo, right to investigate his political opponents, throw people that he doesn't like in jail. Right, Again,

these are not jokes. It is laid out by Project twenty twenty five how they will gut these government agencies of career policy folks, right of career public servants in order to put in their groups of sycophants twenty thousand. I've so far signed up for this task. And so when he says that he's going to use right the FBI as his gestapo or the Department of Justice as his own political weapon, and you think, oh, well, that

could never happen. The only reason why Donald Trump was enabled to shoot protests in Lafayette Square during the uprisings that followed the killing of George Floyd was because there were people there that stopped him. Those people will be long gone and are not coming back to Trump's fear

at this moment in time. So the only people that are going to be around Donald Trump are those people that will just say, yes, right, it doesn't matter if it breaks the law, because if your president, according to Donald Trump and Richard Nixon, nothing that you do right could possibly be breaking the law. And if the Supreme Court hands him, you know, a win in the immunity case, which the forty four presidents that came before him didn't have and managed to do their jobs without it, then

we're just spopped. Because Donald Trump can decide that he's going to kill Joe Biden, he can decide to assassinate Barack Obama, he can decide to jail any journalists that he wants and guess what, it will be legal, much in the same way that the Holocaust was legal, much in the same way that Jim Crow was legal, much in the same way that the genocide that is taking

place in Israel is legal. Right. So the fact is, folks like take Donald Trump at his actual word, he lies a lot, but he also has doubled down and tripled down when he was president of the United States on the things that he said that he would do.

He would appoint justices that would overturn roeby Wade, they did, as well as affirmative action, as well as gun control in the States, as well as, you know, any other thing that we think can't possibly be overturned, like Brown versus the Board of Education, same sex marriage, you know, just name it. Because what I want folks to understand is that the rights that we enjoy, or some of the ones that are still left that we enjoy in this country came through the courts. They did not come

through policy. And guess what Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell made sure that they owned during the during his four years in the presidency, all of those vacancies that were on the courts are filled by right wing radicals as well as as sixty three Supreme Court right now, that's filled with fucking rifters and liars. So when I continue to say the folks that the last defense that we have as a country against Donald Trump and trump Ism is our vote, like this is what the fuck that

I am saying? But Donald Trump is being very clear about what he plans to do, right, Like, he's not mincing words, So folks can't turn around and be like, I'm shocked, right when all of a sudden, your neighbors start disappearing, and all of a sudden, your friends start disappearing, and all of a sudden, public schools start being shut down and gutted, and religious charter schools are popping up in their place, and that there's no social safety nets

and your aged parents or your poor family member have no recourse when you start to see an overflux of homelessness. But then they just throw those people in jail right to get them out of your vision. Like, folks, I want to understand that as bad as things are, and I don't argue that they are not bad, right, everything can always get worse. Let me do an honorable mention for this fucking idiot that some of you may know

but other people may not, which is amber Rose. For those that are not invested in hip hop culture, let me just give you a little primer into who amber Rose is. Amber Rose at one time was dating Kanye West, was dogged out by Kanye West when he decided to leave her and then get into a relationship with Kim Kardashian. Gamber Rose also has a child by rapper Tiger. Tiger was dating Kim Kardashian's sister Kylie Jenner when he was twenty something years old and she was sixteen. But that's

besides the point. Here's the thing. Amber Rose, who has famously, you know, talked about women's rights, has done a quote unquote slut walk right to try and lift the stereotypes of you know, sexually active women, women who choose to own their bodies and enjoy sex and pleasure and talk about these things. And so for quite some time, you know, she has tried to do a rebrand of sorts, and most recently, you know, her next level of rebrand has

been to say that she is now supporting Donald Trump. Right. Mind, you the woman has a black son. She's biracial, and she has a son with a black man. So she has a black son, and she has decided to come out and say that she is going to support Donald Trump, that you know, Donald Trump is about freedom and this, that and the other thing. Well, let me just say this, if you're taking political advice from Amber Rose, you have

bigger problems. But what I want to lift up here is the trend that is happening inside of hip hop where you have Ice Cube and Amber Rose and others that are you know, not above the grift, I guess, right, And you know this is a way. Let me tell you something, what is lucrative if you ever listen to democracy Ishahod and I talk about this all the time, which is that to be a right wing puppet pundit or what have you is to make a lot of money in being wrong and on the wrong side of

history and on the wrong side of like facts. But regardless, if you have no morals right and no values, then it's a pretty good grift, right, you can make millions of dollars. And so I look at the move that Amber Rose is making and I was just like, you know, there were lots of people that called this woman out years ago talking about the way that she's only black when it suits her, but otherwise she leans on her

white presenting self as as a mode of privilege. And this is just to me another case of her doing the most with knowing the least. But I think that the trend in and of itself, to me inside of hip hop culture is really problematic right now because it goes along this idea that Donald Trump is going to be able to peel off enough black votes, enough Latin X votes for it to hurt Joe Biden and for him to be able to win. All I want to say, you know and provide for you, because I know none

of those motherfuckers listening to my show. But what I will say to folks who do have these types of people in your life is you know, all you can do is try and remind them that like Donald Trump hates women overturned Roe V. Wade, Donald Trump hates people of color, and his justices overturned affirmative action. Donald Trump told police officers to you know, rough people up when he was arresting them. He wanted to shoot protesters in the legs. So he doesn't believe in the freedom of speech.

And he has called those that come from African nations shithole countries. He has said that the only good people are those that come from places like Norway and Finland aka white. Donald Trump has done everything to insult the disabled community, to harm women, to harm black people, to say that he's too smart to pay taxes, which makes the rest of us just a bunch of idiots. Donald Trump is a terrible fucking person right on top of

being a criminal. And so for anyone to say that he is going to be better for the black community, or better for any community other than white supremacs is wild to me. It just means that you're not paying attention, or you're so deep in your delusion right that you

can't find your way out. So, you know, my whole thing with Amber Rose ice Cube and other people like them, Charlemagne the god who wants to, for whatever reason, bring on Republican apologists to his show and then offer them softball questions, knowing that these very people and their rhetoric has harmed the Black community, the community that he relies on for his paycheck and his fame, is wild to me.

It's wild to me. But then again, I'm a person with integrity, right, and so it is wild to me the way in which people will abandon any sense of morality and values in order to make a buck. You know, But what do I know. I'm not rich, nor do I aspire to wealth. That has me let go of my scrupuls. So let me put that out there. I think that as the months go on, what I want for Democrats to do is to not go to war with Donald Trump and not make this election a binary

choice between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. I want this to be an election and a referendum against the entire Republican Party. Right now, you have the Senate right in the state of North Carolina that is voted to make it illegal for people to wear masks in public for protection. Right, What about though, I don't even have to go down the list if I want to put a mask on my own fucking face. What the fuck does that have

to do with you? It doesn't, right. And if you're saying like, oh, it's about safety, it's about this then and the other thing, then do what TSA does when people roll up to the airport with a mask on. Take it down very briefly. Okay, great, see your face, got it, keep it moving. What does this have to do with you? This party that is about freedom, that keeps wanting to restrict your freedom to care for yourself

in any which way that you deem necessary. So just take a look at what they're doing in North Carolina. Then go up to Virginia and see what Governor Ynkin is doing there where he just vetoed. I mean a massive amount of legislation, but one in particular that stands out is the right for people to have contraception because he doesn't want it to get in the way of other people's religious freedom. What does me putting a pill

in my mouth have anything to do with you? It doesn't, right, and so your religion may restrict you, but your religion should not have the ability to restrict me. That's what it means to live in a country that doesn't abide by the Bible, but abides by the Constitution. And what the Republicans want to do is to throw out the Constitution in lieu of their interpretation, their warped interpretation of

the Bible. So I need folks to see very clearly what is happening when you have the ability to criminally charge doctors for wanting to provide healthcare in the form of an abortion to people with uteruses and pregnant women in emergency situations that are willing to do what the Supreme Court did a couple of weeks ago, which is to debate how much blood a woman can lose right how close to death, how many organs need to be failing before a doctor does something to help save them

all because of somebody else's religious values and morals, Like my life has to be put on the line. I was talking to a woman the other day that was telling me about a friend of hers that is getting, you know, trying to get pregnant through ivf right, and it's now terrified that when she becomes pregnant, because she has to travel for work a lot, what if something happens if she lands or is having a layover in a state that criminalizes women in their uteruses and she's

in the midst of a medical emergency. She doesn't live in that state, but she will need to get care. These are the types of thinking, the types of ways that women are having to think about their safety in this country. She's not talking about what happens if I fly abroad. She's talking about what happens if I fly from New York and have to connect through fucking Georgia. So, folks, this election is not just between two people that you may like or not like. It is about what kind

of life do you want? Because trust and believe that people who believe that politics have no effect on their lives need to look around and ask themselves how they've been the last nine years. Talk to people that are in states like Louisiana and Tennessee and Alabama and Florida and Texas, you want that shit nationalized. So whether or not you think that Joe Biden needs to be the fucking savior and write on all things, he absolutely is not right on all things, but you know what, he

is right on the Constitution. And so I'd rather have a president that I can fight with without penalty and fight for a better country without fear of jail, deportation or worse than whatever the fuck Donald Trump has in store. And by the way, we know what he has in

store because he's said it in explicit terms. So you know, I urge people, as we continue to make this march towards you know, the fucking election, right that this is so much bigger, right than these two fucking people who, by the way, right like their lives won't change much because they're both white, and they're both wealthy, and they're both men. It is about who has the best policies for your life, the life of your family moving forward.
