Trump fan hangs up after being asked a tough question by James O'Brien | LBC

- This is the agonising moment a Donald Trump supporter hung up on James O'Brien after he couldn't answer one question about the former President.
With just hours to go of the Donald Trump presidency, James O'Brien opened the phone lines to speak to listeners who wanted to defend the President.
The call started with Steven from Islington who said he was a "fan of Trump" who asserted there was a lot in the media which were lies about the President.
Steven and James went back and forth for a while over comments made by Trump, including the outgoing president's stance on Barak Obama not being born in America.
"There have been previous presidents that have actually white that have also been accused of not being born in America, is that racist?" Steven asked.
James said it was not, but asked the caller to clarify who he was talking about.
The caller did not have his ducks in a row, he told James he had "forgotten the names..."
James then spent some time pointing out to the caller things which had been said and welcoming him to rebuff them.
Which Steven did not seem to be able to do.
When James asked the caller what he likes about Trump the call went even further downhill."
"I think he spoke a lot of the truth on stuff," Steven said.
James shot back asking "yeah, what stuff?"
Click rather than answering the question the caller simply hung up.
"Steven's hung up..." James said.

As an American, there is a bit of relief that this stupidity isn’t just in America…but it is also very sad and depressing.
Same here haha. It's amazing to listen to a non-American sound so American haha.
Agreed👍
Probably because we all have English in us here in US. Maybe it’s an English thing.
TBF the US is just a reskinned Britain
@Bearztg Greene Hahaha
I think he hung up because his answer was going to be "racism". 😂
Steven wanna be intellect....Fail😂
Ahahahaha
Yep, nothing likeable about trump unless you hate other people.
🤣😂
He just didn't want to admit he shared trumps veiws on racism
Not even a tough question! “What is it you like about him?” That’s where you fold?
Cuz he liked the rascism
It is a tough question when the guy in question is Trump.
like a box
The only thing he could think was “he’s white”, but Stephen knew he couldn’t say that.
@@Weaug exactly!!!!!
This guy is great. He gives everyone who calls a chance,a chance to crumble and make fools of themselves.
The polar opposite of Piers Morgan, who invites people onto his show - presumably knowing and prepared for their viewpoint - and then shouts them down the moment they voice an opinion that doesn't line up with his.

“Which president?”
“Ah you wouldn’t know him, he goes to another school”
Chester Allen Arthur was the person he couldn't remember the name of. He was accused of being a British citizen born in Canada. It was never proven one way or the other.
@@megaangelic exactly... the host was pressing this guy pretty hard just to make the caller look like an idiot when in fact he was right. The host honestly dodged the questions just as much as the caller he just did it in a more composed manner
@@MicMan123456789 I think the point is that the caller was making claims he didn’t know were true or not. The host entire “which one was accused of not being an American citizen” wasn’t to try and prove there wasn’t others accused, but to see whether the guy making the claim actually knew these facts or was just making things up in order to try and advance his argument, regardless of whether he was right in the end.
I’m not saying the host knew the correct answer either. But if are you going to make a claim, you need to be able to prove it’s fact. And the caller couldn’t.
@Jonathan Devereaux Ted Cruz was born in Calgary, Alberta up in Canada, And John McCain was born in Panama although he was born at a US Navy Base so that should still count as US soil.
@@trentwise3762 I'm not so sure that the called didn't know if it was true or not. Likely he heard the fact from another conservative talk show and couldn't recall the presidents name. The other issue is that he wasn't just asking he was being very aggressive with the caller which causes stress that impedes brain function. When he correctly said "a president from the 1800's" the host immediately cut in to further press him. Pressure is a tactic that a more experienced debater can use against a less seasoned one to effectively defeat the person rather than the argument, and that's what I see here.
I would agree with you about having to prove your assertions, however only in a debate setting. When you are asked your opinion (especially of a layperson) I think it is a bit unreasonable to expect a bevvy of supporting facts and figures. There is a certain amount of freedom that must be given with respect to justification so that the conversation can move forward. It would then be on the onus of the parties afterwards to reference any sources.

I see the same thing in a lot of religious debates.
Imagine you dig up some pyrite and you try to sell it, thinking you struck gold. Everyone in town laughs at you, they tell you it's fool's gold, a worthless mineral. Instead of listening, you surround yourself with people with similar beliefs, people who are willing to accept pyrite, to buy it. All of you convince yourselves that the whole town is conspiring against you, that they're jealous of your success or maybe they're just too dumb to realize your "gold" is real.

Seriously, most trumpers can give the pat response of the stock market, building the wall, and stopping the Chinese or at least something. He's not American though so probably doesn't listen to fox or Linbaugh to get his talking points.
@@brianwalsh1401 I mean, the stock market is a measure of how rich the rich are, not how the rest of the people are faring. They also didn't build a wall, and lost a trade war with china horribly. So he hasn't really accomplished anything tbh
@@TheJerbol I agree. I'm just saying most trumpers in the US at least have these talking points from a right wing "news source" to go on to make it seem as if trump has accomplished something even if he really hasn't accomplished anything except a tax cut for the rich. Remember facts don't mean anything to them so I've learned it's best not to engage because I don't want to go round and round with them and get a head ache. This is just an example of what I hear from trumpers.

I have to say, British insults and comebacks are 10x better than American ones. You know how to just rip a man apart without one swear word or screaming. Brilliant
There’s a strong value in British society placed on oratory skills and just being witty, I think. As where in America there’s a strong value on yelling the loudest. You can see the results of each.

"It's happened before."
"Oh, yeah? When?"
"I don't know."
In the 1880’s 😂😂😂.
It did happen before. The name of the president that was eluding the fine chap on the phone was Chester Arthur. Contemporary politicians claimed he was Canadian but he was born in Vermont. Guy on the phone may not of had the name but it doesn’t make him wrong. It has happened before.
@@caydcrow5161 It happened once, and the accusation was a much more reasonable one that he was born in a neighboring nation, as he was born quite close to the border and likely shared cultural overlap.
Meanwhile, ask a Trump supporter where they think Obama was born, and they'll blindly say anything from South Africa to the Middle East, based on... absolutely nothing.
@@caydcrow5161 it's happened to Charles Evans Hughes 1900 aswell. Barry Goldwater when he was running for presidency in 1964, George W. Romney.

Steven the Egg 🤣
Steven ran out of his phone credits. He's waiting till February 1st when his phone credits starts rollover before he can call back. Let's wait until the end of the day.
I grew up in a conservative echo chamber, and this is basically par for the course. People get so used to only associating with those who agree with them that they don’t have to learn to defend their views, and then when someone comes along and presses them on their point, they shut down.
It's an interesting fact that Trump supporters, whenever asked a direct question, often either evade, deflect or run from answering it. Pretty much the same thing Trump himself does.
Same with Brexiters here.
Don't forget blaming.
Birds of a feather
This is very similar with the Tories in the UK
This is bs if followed the row in America for yrs, I watched the impeachment he's not a rascist he's not liked cos he told the truth also the press r lying about wats happening in America I hope Biden gets removed for the lies and destruction he's cauused

@@cbennetts2746 The accusation was actually directed at Chester Alan Arthur for having been born in Canada and not Vermont. Those accusations only happened after Garfield's death and were made by political opposition which quickly died out a few months into Arthur's presidency.
Those kind of people always use vague “points” without proof to backup their statements.
Just lock Trump up and get this mess over with. He should be for what he incited those people to do.
They have not learned that assertions without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” Joseph Goebbels
@@acricucci9760 The FULL quote is even more apropos of the present situation.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
They are filled with hatred in their heart and refuse to admit it. Then when it come to proving their accusations, all they can say is the "stuff" when you ask what stuff they can never tell you. If yhey try to name something its alway a bunch of gobbledygook that makes mo sense at all.
All James does is question them, he doesn't need to pick away or keep on at someone. One question and they all crumble. He doesn't even try 😂
Caller-- unable to back up his own claims, so hangs up.
This is what happens when you hold people accountable for what they say.
The caller was referring to Chester A. Arthur, an American president of the 19th century, and he was correct in saying that the location of Arthur's birth was a political issue. You see, one of the qualifications for the presidency is to be a natural born citizen, so if it could have been shown that either Arthur or Obama was not an American citizen at birth, he would have been barred from the presidency.
To claim that this issue was about race is just embarrassing for O'Brien, who apparently knows so little about American history that he would spare his blushes by not commenting on American politics.
@@opencommentsbbcnewsnight1704 Of course it was about race, Trump put out that question in public just because Obama wasn't white. Your analys is umbarrassing...
@@opencommentsbbcnewsnight1704 the birther issue is only a concern for complete idiots who dont even bother googling basic facts that most rational Americans already know- it doesn't matter at all if you are born inside the country's borders or not if your mother is a citizen, because that automatically makes you a citizen
@@opencommentsbbcnewsnight1704 As it was his opening gambit, the caller should have done his homework and named Arthur. Had he done so, O'Brien would have been on the back foot as it's doubtful he would have known any different. The caller missed an opportunity there.
Obama is white, at least part. He married a black girl.
Obama and Biden are the very worst. They are puppets of the worst type.
"Come on you're on national radio; you've got your ducks in a row!" *BRILLIANT!*
Someone who isn't trained to talk on the radio would easily fluster. Talk show hosts and radio hosts are well prepared to ask questions they know will 1.) annoy the listener or 2.) ask a question that will fluster them. People who call in to a radio show are nervous because just like standing in front of 30 people in your class giving a presentation and getting nervous you are actually talking to 30,000 people over a radio instead. Why do you think he said "Come on you're on national radio; you've got your ducks in a row!"? It's mind games between the interviewer and interviewee.
@Troll Monster Of course nobody held a gun to his head to make the call, that wasn't my point you lib. Which raises my eyebrow even more to thinking this caller isn't a Trump supporter. Any Trump supporter can tell you why they like him as a President. I didn't like Trump in 2016 but in 2018 I became a Trump supporter primarily because of him revealing the deep hypocrisy of the left and the security he brings this country. You can't fluster a radio host. But thanks for your opinion, you can sit back down.

Generally, your community seems to be quite aggressive in protecting your world view and you're clearly prepared to sacrifice quite a lot to maintain your version of truth.

I've had this very same conversation with close relatives. They will repeat a buzz word from Fox News, and when you ask them what that means or how they know it is true, they fall silent, get angry, or try to change the subject.
So what are your views ?
@@Curiouzzz750 My view is that buzz words and Gish Gallops repeated over and over will seem like argument and evidence to people who do not know the nature of argument and evidence. For just one example, angrily repeating "Russia Collusion Hoax" for years sounds convincing, but it doesn't address why more than 140 of Trump's close associates had contacts with Russian nationals, why Flynn lied about his contact, why Trump's campaign manager Paul Manafort gave internal polling data of swing states to the Russians, why the Russians first began hacking the DNC five hours after Trump requested them to do so live on television, why Trump's son had a secret meeting with a Russian national as "part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump", why they lied about the purpose of the meeting subsequently, why Trump drafted his own son's statement about the meeting to lie about it, why Trump said live on television the reason he fired Comey was because of Russia, why Trump invited Russian government officials to the White House and blurted classified information to them while telling them the he got rid of Comey because of the Russia thing, why Trump continually ignored his own intelligence agents while telling the world in Helsinki he didn't think Putin was involved because Putin said so, why Trump had a secret one-on-one meeting with Putin and then confiscated the translator's notes, etc. You will not hear any of this on Fox News at all. You will only hear "Russia Collusion Hoax" repeated ad infinitum because they know their audience just doesn't care, isn't going to bother finding out, and probably wouldn't have the ability or inclination to even skim the Mueller Report much less follow any investigative reporting in the two previous years. And if you mention any of the above to a Trump supporter, they just say "fake news"...even though virtually all of what I listed above was either done live on television, was eventually admitted to by Trump himself, those involved confessed, and/or was proven in a court of law. It's not as if a bed wetting liberal at the NYTimes made up Trump's live interviews, made Trump confess, made his associates confess or plead guilty, or had any control over how a court of law found someone guilty. (And the list above only scratches the surface. The Mueller report reads like a freakin' thriller novel.)
@@greyeyed123 I'm as left as it gets but russiagate was a hoax to simultaneously cover up the dem partys complete failure to beat someone as idiotic as Trump by running the worst dem campaign and platform in history with Clinton after cheating Sanders, and also, to get us closer to war with Russia...the Mueller report brought people down for corruption, none of it having to do with Russian agents. Just look at Secular Talk or The Jimmy Dore Show break down russiagate for you, both lefties that see through the bs
@@Psyfonify Give me a break. There are dozens of objective pieces of evidence. Many, as I said, live on television. Trump confessed to some of it. His associates confessed to some of it, and pleaded guilty to some of it. Manafort DID give swing state internal polling to them. Don Jr. DID have a meeting with a Russian national with documented evidence saying it was part of the Russian government's support of Trump (Mueller later suggested Don Jr. was too dumb to know that was illegal). Trump DID lie about the meeting. Trump DID craft his own son's statement to lie about it. Kislyak was being monitored by the FBI! To later spin it as "Obama was spying on my campaign" is idiotic in the extreme. If you are talking about the dossier, intelligence AT THE TIME said they already confirmed everything in it except the peeing story, so disregarded it as possible Russian disinformation. But the rest of it was already confirmed from other sources and they already knew it all. All of this is on the record. The fact that Clinton ran a bad campaign has nothing to do with it.
@@greyeyed123
Well said,
I predict the very thing you just explained will happen when the next Drumf supporters read your comments, they will pretend its "fake" because they heard Hannity or Tucker say its "fake" thousands of times without giving any evidence or real explanation as to why its fake apart from "the fake Steel Dossier" as fox news seems to point to in every argument, even though 99% of whats in the Christopher Steel Dossier has reportedly been proven true.
Some people just lack basic critical thinking skills and already have a cognitive bias which stops them looking at evidence without already dismissing it in their heads subconsciously because they can't handle being wrong.
Let the fun begin....
Peace.

@@jg3865 ...anyone who hasn't thought through their position on a subject is a cult member now? Awesome.

Yeah I know. It was such an easy question. He should have said something like: that's not racism. Aside from the host not knowing what actually constitutes racism, the host obviously doesn't know what "proven" means. Softball question really. Then he could have brought up the "nothing burger"-CNN as an example of the media blatantly lying about Trump. I mean seriously, the host is trying to make the argument that the media doesn't lie about Trump! Easy to refute.
"he speaks the truth on stuff".
What an insight Steven gave us. Thank you mate
What truth was that love to hear them
That’s literally all they’ve got.
Whats all they've got,and who is they elsborate pls?
Dont know where you stand dont want to pressume
Generally it's the underlying bigotry that Trump dances around without saying directly. That's why it's hard to quite put into words
Thanks LBC, we need more people asking follow up questions, dont let up, it shows they have nothing.

The worst part is that I’m sure that this experience had 0 effect on his opinion and nothing has changed for him. These people are beyond reason. There’s no point in engaging.
And it’s cuz of racism. They like to act like they like trump for other reasons but don’t really have any. They follow him specifically for his white supremacy agenda and have to make sure they don’t admit it
I hope they aren't engaged, married and spawning
No, but there is a point in turning them back. Which was done here pretty spectacularly.
In this kind of setting I don’t think it’s about engaging the person to change their perspective. I think it’s about airing out the misinformation and the ridiculousness of their standpoint to other people who are less informed and are on the fence. This is supposed to be the role of the news networks. Real interviewers challenge the BS to help the listeners make an informed choice. Unfortunately people haven’t quite been doing their jobs on that front lately. However, it lightens my heart to know that there are people like this man who are doing the right thing. He treated this caller like a human being, and never spoke down to him. He just stuck in the pocket of his argument, defended his claims, and asked the caller to support his.
Ditto! Sad and true 😭

@@Tad1945 I know quite abit about James Garfield. He was not accused of not being american. At least not by birth. No president before Obama ever had that accusation.
@@Tad1945
No...?
@@alexdesouza9471 it’s Chester Alan Arthur, and he wasn’t a president but the Vice President for President James Garfield. The accusation was that he was not actually born in Vermont but up in Canada, but it was nothing more than slander by political rivals. It was essentially to accuse Arthur of being a subject of the British Empire because this was still a time when Americans had a bit of a mixed attitude towards the British. That being said, Obama has an American mother and was born in Hawaii, unlike some American candidates like Romney and McCain who were born outside the country to American parents. Claiming Obama isn’t really American while the other two didn’t get any looks just highlights it was racism.

@Jay Bee Wow, that's exactly how I feel with most trump fans. Guess it's both sides then?
I've only had a handful of useful and informative conversations with trumplicans where we left friendly (here on RUclips). Most are just nasty and name call.
It could be that people read anger or condescension into what others are writing when it's not there. I worked with a girl from Georgia making 3D products and she saw angry comments and sly jabs in everything she read in the 3D forums but I saw none of it. I even apologized to her a few times and I don't even know what I did. Just keep the peace.
@Jay Bee ya I feel ganged up on all the time from my own family.
They are Trump supporters and any time I stand up for what I think is right, they get in my face and try to intimidate me into conceding to whatever conspiracy theory the're ranting about, but they never so much as let me finish my sentence.
Sorry, but all the Trump supporters I know (including my own family) are just trash people with no brains or morals.
@Jay Bee Be honest. There is a huge discrepancy between conservatives and liberals when it comes to education!
As an American who has lived in England for almost 30 years I just loved this conversation. Or, should I say lack of one. If you feel hard done by you should be able to to explain why.

That’s because not very many Trumpists are actually able to back up their positions logically. They are used to just speaking in echo chambers, sparring with straw men. In most cases where they are discussing these topics with an anti-Trumper they will either counter any accusations with whataboutism or just by shouting over the other person until the conversation ends.
So, the tough question this guy hanged up about was "what stuff?"
