SERIES 3 EPISODE 67: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN

A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: "No one in this world, so far as I know—and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me—has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby. The mistake that is made always runs the other way. Because the plain people are able to speak and understand, and even, in many cases, to read and write, it is assumed that they have ideas in their heads, and an appetite for more. This assumption is a folly." H.L. Mencken (1926).

Nice of Hispanic males to vote for the guy who will deport all their relatives and friends and namesakes and when they run out, deport them.

Also: the anti-Trump conservative who's trying to be optimistic: at least now Trump won't try another coup!

And Jeff Bezos congratulates Trump because if they're still blackmailing Bezos on Trump's behalf, this is what it would look like!

And details on the future of this podcast (yes, it has one).

B-Block (20:51) SPECIAL COMMENT TWO: My theory of The Lifeboat and how it explains who voted for Trump and why.

C-Block (34:00) GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK.
