I’ve got to say, your shows are always spectacular. You bring on the perfect guests for interviews and truly have conversations that inspire free thought. You’ve got nowhere to go but up. If you’re up to it, I would love to see another segment about FTC, price gouging, and how Harris views she expressed over the weekend formulate into it all. Much love man!
For people who say that we had Trump as President for 4 years and we all survived - actually we did NOT all survive. More than a million of us died of COVID.
We had a the equivalent, per capita, of deaths here in the UK. I presume we should also blame those deaths on Trump. If I were you my conscience would be reeling over the Ukrainian body count in America’s proxy war with Russia.
And he stacked the supreme court to chip away at our democracy and removed any consequences for illegal acts as president making him king and ultimately dictator All very strategic.
Thank you so much!!! People need to be reminded about trump's blatent disregard of the danger of covid...so many died on his watch..he didn't care. We need to remind people of this. In my mind he killed people and nobody will ever make me forget or brush over that. It was criminal!!!
Vote! And rest easy knowing that the party is in the hands of responsible adults. Thank you for your fight for women's rights many years ago!, We do not forget and we WILL NOT STOP until we have our rights back for good!! 🗳️♀️🇺🇲♀️🗳️
Hahaha...how cute thinking that corporate media isn't completely in bed with dump. (I agree with you, forgive my snark, but corporate media is not going to supply any rational information that isn't stained with propaganda).
OMG!! I am watching this again 5 days after the election! Brian, can you pls invite Heather Cox Richardson again and discuss this shocking turn of events and the “What Now” please? I believe that would be very valuable to all of your listeners!
No. It is happening as we speak. The Supreme court is actually dismantling the Constitution. The justice system is pardoning the former president for espionage, endangering our national security, and instigating a coup. The majority in Congress is actually guilty of treason per our Constitution. It's not a possibility or even probability. It is reality and we are standing on the breaks praying we can stop what the right has put in motion.
I remember the Hungarian revolt. (I am that old now) I remember I wanted to runaway and find a way to get to Hungary and help the teenagers there trying to defeat the Soviet tanks. I was hoping Eisenhower would change his mind about defending Hungary. But the revolt was then totally crushed. And here you are a Hungarian concerned about we here in the United States. Love of Freedom and Justice, like those who love, is a human passion that sees through much, no matter how many battles,,,,! Bless you, and God help us achieve more perfect Freedom and Justice ....everywhere.
Relax about that one. Trump is mainly using HITLER"S playbook. Although I am German, this burden of shame rests on the MAGA voters , aka the Republican Party of America, who is enabling the Trump monster and supporting him.
The flip side is that Democrats are making life too easy for street thugs in the name of a "racial reckoning." The massive crime wave in 2020 was enabled by woke culture. Both they and MAGAts support criminals of different stripes but claim theirs are the righteous ones.
As a German, if the American people dismisses the rethoric of DonOLD Schitler they are in for a rude awakening. They can't say they did NaZi that coming.
I think the only people dismissing it as talk are people who want to vote for him anyway, but still want to maintain the facade that they would never support a real authoritarian who hates the constitution and most of the American people. My brother, sadly, is one of them, despite having a Jewish wife and children, a mother, and two sisters (women whose rights he clearly doesn't respect), as well as a niece who is bisexual- all of whom he sincerely claims to love. There's no explanation.
This Historian made one very good point. Trump is old & not well. To Vote Maga is to vote JD Vance as President !! This is not the type of person for the job, as much as Trump. THINK HARD ON THIS !! VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙
One talks about preferring to be electrocuted rather than being eaten by a shark...the other is the consumption of Diet Mountain Dew being rascist....Wtaf ???
Good point. I’ve been so wrapped up in trumps narcissism that it never occurred to me that Vance could become President. OMG, hell no to him as well. Vote Blue!!
I agree. They are pushing to get him into office and to remove Trump. Vance is not capable of being a president let alone a VP. I wouldn't trust him with my pets!! They would kick him off the couch!;
Trump was TERRIBLE the first time around! His encore would be INTOLERABLE! We cannot allow him to tear down American Democracy! VOTE BLUE DOWN THE BALLOT! 💙💙🗳️✍🏼💙💙🗳️✍🏼💙💙🗳️✍🏼💙💙🗳️✍🏼
@@paulac875Trump is a useful idiot. Project 2025 is filled with his underlings. Like Vance they really work for the elites but they weren't quick enough last time around. Why do you think it's called project 2025? They're not allowing grass to grow on this. Trump is their brute tool and they'll use it effectively this time.
@@paulac875Trump is supporting this but I dont believe he is intelligent enough to really see the implications of his actions in the long run. His thinking is completely focused on enriching himself and avoiding the consequences of his crimes. I don't think he can think outside that box.
Thank you for speaking up about your country’s current political culture. From your perspective: 1. Why does anyone vote for a known aspiring dictator? We see the same 2 U.S. presidential candidates, but many Americans are willing to vote for a mean, lying, unethical lawbreaker. I’m lost about this. 2. Don’t we all want educated, intelligent, ethical, alliance-builders with a passion for public service? 3. Why are people willing to destroy the institutions that took 200 years of development? 4. Do you think the guest of this show has the right knowledge about this? I have hope for you and your country. May your life still bring you joy and meaning. I welcome your ideas if you would like to offer any on this topic. ☮️
@@jaykay1053 Thank you for your kind words and sympathy! Yes, this guest is very knowledgeable and authentic. I have the answers to all your questions but too scared to speak up publicly. :( I'll keep following, and wholeheartedly supporting your fight for democracy!
The problem with Orban is that he's faced no real consequences. As an EU citizen, I believe the EU has a responsibility to protect the integrity of our union by taking action against leaders like him. Orban's behavior keeps escalating-he blocked Sweden's NATO membership until they gave him fighter jets, and now he's planning to allow Russians and Belarusians into Hungary, and by extension the entire Schengen area, with just a national ID, no passport required. This is a serious security risk, and Hungary needs to be expelled from both NATO and the EU immediately. On top of that, Orban even met with Trump while Biden was president, which is not only inappropriate but illegal in the U.S., and it's a disgrace for the EU. This behavior can't go unchecked. Either Orban leaves, or the entire Hungarian nation does. We need to protect our democracy on both sides of the Atlantic, this is a common fight.
Thank you for making this so clear to understand and see what is happening in the EU. We of course have our noses in our own backyard, but need to see the whole world view.
Brian -- Looking at this post-election. Please bring Heather back and get her thoughts now . . . AND any recommendations that she has for us. That would be VERY helpful.
I'm going to send this to family and friends to watch. Idk if they will, but I have to try. Trump supporters who will lose so much if Trump gets back into office. Can't skim over what 2025 actually means.!!!
When she compares Trumps intentions to what Orban did in Hungary is not new. That's what maybe America doesn't see but the whole Western world sees. Also in Germany, Hitler started with winning the 'uneducated' and we all know what happened next. It's a crazy world.
Trump has already debunked this theory. You guys and gals have a serious case of Trump derangement syndrome., SMH. 4 years of prosperity is all you will get from trump, just like his first 4 years. Get a grip people.
Thank you Brian & Heather for the common sense approach. I’m a 58 yr old, who has voted republican most of my life, but I do not recognize my party any longer. Trump is a clear & present danger to this country. Keep educating voters! 💙💙💙 ps I bought Heather’s book!
Frightening! I am 84 years old and grew up in occupied by the Nazis in Denmark and I KNOW that the impossible nightmare Heather lays out here is very real. I have sensed all this but have not been able to pull it out together without her presentation. Thank you. I am going to contact her to get suggestion how I can be most effective in stopping this selfish evil destructive machine. It so sick! Give me strength to use the rest of my life to make a difference. I am a woman, had a Trump like father that abandoned me at age 3. When at 18 I came to live with him and his horrible ways in the USA and decided very fast to make my own way in life. I have been given every opportunity this country offered and would like to give back and help turn this war machine around.
I am proud of your honesty and common sense;please do not give up on your republican friends and keep trying g to put sense and truth in them! Thank you.
From Australia. MAGA has drawn upon the fascist playbook. Mussolini, Hitler and others provide examples of how it works and the ultimate consequences of implementation.
Don't fear of "threats". The real dangers are here already. With open border, terrorists are abound in the US, towns are overtaken my illegal immigrants, failing economy, high inflation, etc. People can't afford housing or to get foods for their kids are real threat!. Parents have no rights over their children's welfare is real threat! Tragic! World war 3 looming is real threat. More bloodshed! May God help this country
he is powered by the people. one person cant do all this by himself. its all MAGA people that are responsible for this, they are chasing a false dream of 2 dollar gas prices because they are uneducated and poor and walking us to the end of the best nation in modern history as we know it
From Fiji, in the emiddle of the Pacific....... to Brian, Heather, and the other many brave people speaking out.... please continue in your concern for your great but now fragile democracy. With you in spirit.
That's with our Congress we still are dealing with Mike Johnson the speaker of House and Marjorie Greene, Lauren Boebert, Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz who are working against us for Trump.
Trump was and is a disaster. Laughing stock every time he opened his mouth. USA lost its mind by electing him in the first place. Despicable man and despicable party.
He's never left. He has his fake shadow presidency set up at his tacky Florida club. He's continued to menace the US, illegally meet world leaders, manipulate elected politicians, and give speeches behind a seal that looks like POTUS (but says "maralago). He's turned the GOP into a criminal gang.
Agree. My fear is if he’s elected he will be a figurehead because he’s old and in cognitive decline and Vance and Thiel by extension will be the ones taking over.
We are excited here in the United States, too!!!! Finally, something positive happening! We are NOT going back. I can't wait to vote for Harris/Walz! 💙
I watched this for the first time today.....and after the results of the election, I'm honestly at this moment in time, I've had my faith in America and its people and in particular those that will be most affected - blacks and Latino's - somewhat vanquished. We went into this with our eyes wide open. We all saw what we saw, we all heard what we heard.
At least these two groups were allowed to cast her last vote. And they decided that they want to leave the country. Or rather get to leave the country.
@@sechsauge if they cast a vote, they are citizens and inside the country or outside, they remain citizens. And few are the countries that will accept them on a permanent basis without their seeking citizenship there. Also, returning to Puerto Rico isn't leaving the country, it remains part of the US.
You know what is really sad? I know more than one person who went and cast a vote for him, and they have never watched his speeches, rallies or interviews. I've watched them all and my opinion of him comes from everything that he has said and done himself, not what anyone has said about him. One of his voters said "you're being manipulated by the media, you should be stronger than that". I believe that's the mentality of a lot of people who voted for him, they don't take on the responsibility to know things for themselves because they don't trust themselves, so they don't listen to anything but the things they soak up from the people around them.
@@sechsauge my favorite type was during the early campaign, where some brain trusts threatened me with deportation. Even had it in person, which was more fun, as then they'd hear in my best South Philly accent, "Where ya gonna deport me to, South Philly?!", although the response is the same, the accent really pulls the rug out from under the imbecile. Given my parents were also born in South Philly and on my maternal grandmother's side are sons and daughters of the American Revolution. In many ways, pro-Trump voters remind me of Jonestown, allowed peer pressure to drive them to drink the Flavor Aid.
Can you even believe that our justice system is twiddling its thumbs while the congress members who participated in the insurrection are still sitting in Congress?
If you or I would have been culpable in a white collar crime, we would already be in jail. Ted Cruz should be in jail for his part in the fake electors scheme.
I never knew the Left to be so.... moral. I mean, if it were, why then do they demand the murder of children for the one-night flings of their mother and father? Truly horrible behavior. Have adulterous sex and murder the baby after. What high ground are you coming from again?
Since he doesn't know beans about anything like governing or democracy, he just listens to what will make him rich and famous. No future for us in that kind of leader.
But doesn’t go back to the evils on which the nation was founded. Evil didn’t suddenly appear in the American psyche with this particular descendent of the Nazis
And the south has not recovered, and will not for some time. The education in the south is sadly lacking. It brings out the stupid in it's people. I live in the south and have for 70 years.
I agree. All Americans, especially the young, should be made graphically aware of the evil threat the Marxist controlled Democrat Party poses. They have infused the concept of globalism into every facet of American culture. Admittedly, it will take an extraordinary effort to identify and permanently remove the causes and repair the damage done. But, it is well within our capability. Donald Trump is just the beginning.
Agreed. Dear American friends, please remember Sinclair Lewis` warning "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross."
Vote blue my fine American friends . The world needs democracy in the US and a proper US Supreme Court. Vote both houses blue so the corrupt Supreme Court Justices can be properly impeached.
Yesterday I was sick to my stomach. Today I am chuckling. Most Americans don’t know what they have done. I know that in the next year or two Americans who voted him back him may awake from the cult they find themselves in.
Make no mistake you will lose your Democracy if you don’t fight for it this election! Vote out the GOP now while you still have the chance. VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!
@@dilmeral By all means vote, but _si vis pacem, para bellum._ I'm not sure simply winning the election will extinguish the threat. If democracy loses the election, then we are at war whether we like it or not.
@christopheroliver148 Sadly, you are 1000% correct! tRump and his maggats already said there will be blood shed if we don't let them win and take our Democracy! Smdh
Wrong. The left needs to be stopped. They are coming for your kids already. Look at the laws they are passing in California. They want kids to be reporting their parents. Disggusting
I want democracy. I want freedom. I want to feel joy. I want to live by our constitution. No trump/vance! No project 2025. No hate. No dictatorship. No!!
Most people don't take it seriously because they take our freedoms for granted. They have forgotten the 50s and 60s when abortion was illegal and only married women with a lot of kids could get birth control. They don't remember segregation. They don't remember the riots where the military was used. Most people are too busy crying about what they don't have to appreciate what they do. And believe me when I say I'm poor and still very grateful for what I do have. Because here in America I'm FREE to be poor and happy 😊 Never say never because you don't know what you've got til it's gone!! 💙🌊🗣️💪🇺🇲
ROFL! This is her quote about Brandon-- "In the whole picture of American history, if you change a presidential nominee at this point in the game, the candidate loses"
ROFL! Yeah listen to her! Her quote--"In the whole picture of American history, if you change a presidential nominee at this point in the game, the candidate loses."
@@billstretch9187 I think she is wrong in this case. And ROFL is a weird reaction here. By the way trump is illegitimate according to the 14th Amendment and the SCOTUS is violating the Constitution too. We have a severe Constitutional crisis.

harris walz traitors to the USA. project 2025 endores over 300 policy recommended by the heritage foundation. are you opposed to re-establishment of rights and laws that support the American Citizens??
@AnaterZ Is it shit policy to restore women's reproductive lives, allowing the middle class to own homes, lowering the price of prescription drugs, having the child tax credit set, and more for families with newborns. The Dems have been hard at work since day 1 and the Biden/Harris team has accomplished so much. Infrastructure, caping the price of prescription drugs..etc. All your guy did was give the top 1% their tax credits....he cannot even stay on topic. He's such a cry baby and is triggered by everything. He's a very unserious and unstable man. I've read a couple if articles on Trump's economic policies and Harris is correct....what he wants will create everything we purchase to go up. We can debate all day, but in the end...as Elizabeth Warren so eloquently stated, "Shoot, I wouldn't trust those guys to move my couch".
I love Dr Heather Cox Richardson, I read her letters every morning. I have learned so much over the last few years because of her. Thank you Brian for working with her.
I grew up in East-Germany. Lived there for 23 years before the wall came down. Now I live in a democracy for almost 35 years and see all of it in danger. Like in the USA today. I fully agree with mrs. Cox. All her comments and explanations reflect my experience living in a faschist system. The really bad news from me for you educated, liberal Americans out there is that you have certainly 40 % of your population who are totally fine to live in an authoritarian system. Because of the concept of abdication . abdication of responsibility. This is the real poison that will destroy your society. And unfortunately over the times you’ll have additional 20-30 % who will adapt to such society. Therefore Prof Cox predicted that the return of democracy won’t happen in her lifetime. I’d say 100 years of darkness before the light. Americans cannot imagine how fast a society can broke. You’ve read about, you watched movies about. But experience it on your own it’s a complete different story. May god bless the American voters on 5th of November. If you guys screw it up over there our lights in Europe will turn off too…
@stefanblutke8053 thank you for taking the trouble to share your experience, as a warning to Americans. And yes, if the worst happens, it could easily take 100 years for democracy to return, if ever.
Stefan, I am from ex-CSSR, born and educated, left the country '69. I think you are painting the future a little bit too dark and gloomy, remember the saying of selfullfilling prophecy? Let's hope and have faith in better future with the brilliant Kamala and her VP Walz. Let's pray the majority USA folks have understood what a threat tRump is to democracy and vote 💙💙💙. Best wishes and Greetings from Heidelberg ❤️
@@michelez715 There was a study done that showed most dictatorships last 80 years before they are toppled. That's almost 4 generations of people. YIKES!! VOTE BLUE OR LOSE IT ALL!!!
Richtig!!! ( I am an American who has lived in Germany for over 20 years.) I really believe that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will win and derail the Trump/MAGA train.
German - Swiss American here! I highly recommend that peoplevread the book Learning from the Germans: RACISM abd the Memory of EVIL by a Jewish- American woman ,Susan Neiman. She is the Director of the Einstein Institute in Berlin ,Germany. She was raised in the segregated South in the 1960's. She is a professor of Philosophy abd raised her 3 children in Germany. She still lives there! Susan makes the point that after WWII Germany had to accept their defeat and move on . To EVOLVE ! Unlike the American South April 9,1865 & DJT / November 2020 both of whom NEVER accepted their defeats and REGRESSED . They basically DEVOLVED! And FYI, my Great-Uncle died on a beach in Anzio, Italy fighting against FASCISTS like 45 or as I call him , A-GOLF TWITLER. MY Great-Uncle was a Staff Sgt. in the US Army. He definitely was NOT a LOSER! 🇩🇪 🇨🇭 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🪖🫡🫡🫡🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🧢🧢🧢🧢🧢🧢🧢🧢🌊HARRIS-WALZ 2024!🤗🤗
I‘m German and really thankful for your comment. All you need to do is read a book about German history in the first half of the 20th century. Btw: We didn‘t accept defeat, we welcomed freedom and democracy.
@jasonschulz3819 Donald's father Fred Snr was a member of the American Nazi group. This group was called The Bund - and supported Hitler & NAZI Idealogy. They held a huge rally at Madison Square Garden. Look it up. Donald's Mein Kampf book was confirmed by his first wife. He read it some times in her presence. Kept in his bedside table drawer - on his side of the bed.
We can't let Trump/Vance get into office! It is obvious that Trumps health is declining and it gives me utter panic to think of JD Vance running OUR Country.
It's utter panic if Trump is representing our country!! Both of them are a big "NO WAY" for m, too!!! VOTE BLUE ALL THE WAY SAY NO TO TRUMP AND PROJECT 2025! Save our democracy!!
Maybe it's their plan for trump to cheat and get the presidency by fraudulent electors and then take him out so they can have a jd vance dictatorship- that'll be a nightmare come true.
Greene actually had said "only the sick and elderly were supposed to die." If people aren't terrified by another trump administration, they're not paying attention
not to mention life is supposed be more about just surviving.....lmfao..... donnie shit stains will most definitely tear america apart even more than he did the first time ....once you fucken break something it never works the same again
as a Hungarian, the US can still stop the same that happened to us happening to your beautiful country! Learn from our mistake, you still got a chance in this November to turn this around, towards a a lot more beautiful future! I believe that the whole world is watching you right now, and so much is at stake. But it's time to finally get optimistic again! ✌️ 💙 🗳️ 🇺🇸
Spent time in Hungary about 40 years ago, where Russia was reducing its influence but still hated; everybody was looking forward, working 2 jobs (got one and their real one) and things seemed optimistic. Then I see what is happening now and find it quite shocking.
@@ME-ol9gk People are very poor on average, which makes many of them hateful/desperate and thus more become criminal, no free media only propaganda, Hungary actually gets a net+ billions from the EU every year, but it's never felt by the population as it all goes towards BS decided by Orbán... all while making propaganda against the feeding hand EU for trying to "control" them. Extremely xenophobic, very limited freedom of expression in the wider public (lot's of censorship even when it comes to theater etc.), book banning in schools in exchange for more "patriotic" books for children, stories of teachers literally drawing swastikas on the blackboard... It all started with Orbán legally getting elected but since then he made damn sure he stays in power indefinitely by changing the constitution etc. Sounds familiar? But of course people are so brainwashed after years of Orbán, that they don't direct their hatred against him, but against the "evil" immigrants, who "make them poor" (meanwhile Hungary actually has the least amount of immigrants in all of the EU lol)
Observing from Canada, I am hoping for a Democratic win 'all the way down the ticket'. To have our 'sleeping elephant' descend into Christian Nationalist Facism would be extremely disappointing for me. Rooting for the Dems from Canada!
Wow. This lady has it all together. Every person in this country should see this. She is so insightful and articulate. Thank you Brian, you hit the jackpot with this guest.
Eight years ago, everyone accused Democrats of not taking Trump seriously, but taking him literally, while Republicans took him seriously, but not literally. Sadly, eight years later we better all take him both seriously and literally. Thank you for this terrific interview. It should strike terror in everyone, and get them to get out and vote for Harris
As an Australian, I am well aware of what Trump is trying to do. Don't let him get away with it, in any form. After defeating Trump this election, the laws that constrain the presidency have to be tightened, and made certain.
Another Australian, watching in horror, and dismayed and can't fathom how this ridiculous man who has a serious Personality Disorder is able to stand for re- election....corrupting the country and endangering his country and the rest of the world.
When Harris wins, she should not be in hurry to repeal all the supreme courts recent rulings. There is one she could use to fix the supreme court problem. Yep.
Exactly everytime he gets away with a crime and a lie he is fueled in his fever. But now that he packed the Supreme Court he gas the immunity if a Dictator 😢
Brian, Hundreds of thousands of Americans of all ethnicities have died for our freedom. Their death should not be in vain, we will not dishonor them. We will not go back!
Did you vote for Kamala ? Where is your Democracy when it came to your presidential candidate? Looks like a dictator was appointed by the DNC . Nobody voted for her
It's to late. American instituations have become to weak due to polarization. If Trump does not topple democracy this election, someone else will in a later election.
Covid: a million lost souls. 🤍🙏🏻🕊️Ignoring the pandemic when warned in 11-2019 was dereliction of duty. Many could have been prevented with greater and quicker response.
Finally! Thank you Heather for bringing religion in. This is the particular flavor of cruelty that is our history, in fact Christianity is history itself. This is what we must break away from.
I spent 3 years in the US in the 90‘s and back argued that there was a concrete risk for the country to slip into authoritarianism (as a German, I guess I am oversensitive). My friends laughed off any such prospect, I.e. the US culture was intrinsically immune to fascism. And that lack of awareness of potential slippery slope is the exact reason why fascism could take over in a lightning. It took the NSDAP exactly less than two months to turn a (polarized) Weimar Republic into a one-party state. Don’t ever believe it „cannot happen here“
Also the European democracies that were built out of the ruins of WWII have more solid democratic institutions. Proportional representation eg has its issues but it avoids a minority to take control of the country. The US still relies on an institutional structure that is more 200 years old and it shows. It’s the electoral college that allowed Trump to become president even when he lost the popular vote. It’s the senate that allows republicans to exercise an overinflated influence on US politics compared to their actual votes share. Not to mention scotus. Too many weak spots that bad actors can exploit to their advantage.
@@geraldstephens6612 MAGA are ALREADY descending into purges and infighting. Look how Rogan and that kid who murdered protestors were brought to heel in less than a day.
The dirty secret is the "F word" in American politics has always been Fascism. Prescott Bush the father and grandfather of both George's was not only a Nazi sympathizer but a full on Nazi collaborater. GHW Bush joked about it. Our country supported Franco and all these Central/South American dictators simply because for their anti-communist stance. This is scratching the surface.
Canadian here. Just love watching all the Harris/Walz rallies. Now that’s character, positivity, patriotism, honesty and care for the middle class at its finest! Wow!🇨🇦🙏🇺🇸
If Trump does win and after listening to this, I may leave the country!! I would pick Canada first. I know there are a lot of hoops to go through but it would be worth it!
What a load of trolls in here! How can anyone buy something like these 2 deepstate puppets say? She sits and warns that Trump will do things that the Democrats have already been doing for 8 years! Lying about "a strong economy" when you are about to go under! Look at reality today, not wat what these 2 sharlatans are sitting and making up is going to happen..... and then we will not talk about Trudeau's fachist dictatorship. You have given away your freedom to a crazy narcissist, and your children will hate you for it!
In Hungary Orban controls EVERYTHING from the three branches of government, though the private business sector down to arts and culture. It's a new fascism. Add institutionalized corruption which made Orban the richest person in the country through several front men.
❤ thank you both for sharing. I am a 76 year old German. Compare the Trump/Vance ideal with the Nazis is the right thing to say. And I am very worried what is happening in America in the moment. And I appreciate your thoughts which gives me a more hope.
@@wendyfield7708 Totally agree with your comment and I am an 80 year old Brit who can see through trump and his minions but unfortunately millions of Americans can't.
Comparing Trump to Hitler is idiotic and irresponsible. That is why democrats are wetting their pants because they think the president will sick the goons on them. People spreading this nonsense should be ashamed.
It was more than mishandling. He outright lied from the beginning. He bungled airport intake of travelers creating a breeding ground of covid. Then refused to have the federal government involved in providing supplies, including what were called "blue" states. Trump deliberately killed 100s million people.
A woman who is applying for the most important job in the world is intimidated by going to a charity fundraiser? How is this clown going to handle world leaders ? Hmm?
"madman" Your VP let his cities burn for three days, he has a Nazi like snitch line, he put tampons in boys locker rooms, he allows mutilating children!

She hit the nail on the head. People think this would never happen in the USA,but, it is a real possibility.
And there are plenty of right wing lunatics that are hellbent on MAKING IT HAPPEN!!
No. It is happening as we speak. The Supreme court is actually dismantling the Constitution. The justice system is pardoning the former president for espionage, endangering our national security, and instigating a coup. The majority in Congress is actually guilty of treason per our Constitution. It's not a possibility or even probability. It is reality and we are standing on the breaks praying we can stop what the right has put in motion.

As a Hungarian, I am deeply saddened and utterly ashamed that our dictator has become the model for the most concerning plan in US history.
As an American, we don't blame you.
I wish you’d tell what it’s really like living under someone like Irban
Do original Orban supporters realize what happened yet? Are they still supportive?
I remember the Hungarian revolt. (I am that old now) I remember I wanted to runaway and find a way to get to Hungary and help the teenagers there trying to defeat the Soviet tanks. I was hoping Eisenhower would change his mind about defending Hungary. But the revolt was then totally crushed. And here you are a Hungarian concerned about we here in the United States. Love of Freedom and Justice, like those who love, is a human passion that sees through much, no matter how many battles,,,,! Bless you, and God help us achieve more perfect Freedom and Justice ....everywhere.
Relax about that one. Trump is mainly using HITLER"S playbook. Although I am German, this burden of shame rests on the MAGA voters , aka the Republican Party of America, who is enabling the Trump monster and supporting him.
Such a great interview and I'm so sad that the right people didn't listen to it!!

No writing on ballots. It would nullify your vote.
Heather is sharp and spot on. The US needs to wake the fuck up.
Exactly!
Trump prefers the uneducated.
Right on!
👍, indeed, she is bright!
The flip side is that Democrats are making life too easy for street thugs in the name of a "racial reckoning." The massive crime wave in 2020 was enabled by woke culture. Both they and MAGAts support criminals of different stripes but claim theirs are the righteous ones.
As a German, if the American people dismisses the rethoric of DonOLD Schitler they are in for a rude awakening.
They can't say they did NaZi that coming.

As a child of Cubans who fled Castro’s dictatorship, don’t expect to get democracy back in your lifetime once you lose it.
Good point!! 😂❤😂❤
I like your play on words! Well said!
I think the only people dismissing it as talk are people who want to vote for him anyway, but still want to maintain the facade that they would never support a real authoritarian who hates the constitution and most of the American people. My brother, sadly, is one of them, despite having a Jewish wife and children, a mother, and two sisters (women whose rights he clearly doesn't respect), as well as a niece who is bisexual- all of whom he sincerely claims to love. There's no explanation.
This Historian made one very good point. Trump is old & not well. To Vote Maga is to vote JD Vance as President !! This is not the type of person for the job, as much as Trump. THINK HARD ON THIS !! VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙
Exactly. He’s a rube to be used by the corrupt oligarchs.
Get out and REGISTER and VOTE 💙🗳️🇺🇸🗽 to save democracy. Your voice and vote MATTER!!
Great point!
One talks about preferring to be electrocuted rather than being eaten by a shark...the other is the consumption of Diet Mountain Dew being rascist....Wtaf ???
Good point. I’ve been so wrapped up in trumps narcissism that it never occurred to me that Vance could become President. OMG, hell no to him as well. Vote Blue!!
I agree. They are pushing to get him into office and to remove Trump. Vance is not capable of being a president let alone a VP. I wouldn't trust him with my pets!! They would kick him off the couch!;

Thank you, Brian and Heather Cox Richardson.
I, as a Hungarian, can testify to every chilling word that Heather is saying! Excellent analysis, please do heed her warning!
Ty Hungary
Thank you for speaking up about your country’s current political culture. From your perspective:
1. Why does anyone vote for a known aspiring dictator?
We see the same 2 U.S. presidential candidates, but many Americans are willing to vote for a mean, lying, unethical lawbreaker. I’m lost about this.
2. Don’t we all want educated, intelligent, ethical, alliance-builders with a passion for public service?
3. Why are people willing to destroy the institutions that took 200 years of development?
4. Do you think the guest of this show has the right knowledge about this?
I have hope for you and your country. May your life still bring you joy and meaning. I welcome your ideas if you would like to offer any on this topic. ☮️
@@jaykay1053 Thank you for your kind words and sympathy! Yes, this guest is very knowledgeable and authentic. I have the answers to all your questions but too scared to speak up publicly. :(
I'll keep following, and wholeheartedly supporting your fight for democracy!
@@yeokati7945 Thank you so much for your reply. I understand. All the very best to you.
@@jaykay1053, Yeah ORBAN & TRUMP , the BRAINBOX is FULL of BULLSHITS …😂😂😂
The problem with Orban is that he's faced no real consequences. As an EU citizen, I believe the EU has a responsibility to protect the integrity of our union by taking action against leaders like him. Orban's behavior keeps escalating-he blocked Sweden's NATO membership until they gave him fighter jets, and now he's planning to allow Russians and Belarusians into Hungary, and by extension the entire Schengen area, with just a national ID, no passport required. This is a serious security risk, and Hungary needs to be expelled from both NATO and the EU immediately.
On top of that, Orban even met with Trump while Biden was president, which is not only inappropriate but illegal in the U.S., and it's a disgrace for the EU. This behavior can't go unchecked. Either Orban leaves, or the entire Hungarian nation does. We need to protect our democracy on both sides of the Atlantic, this is a common fight.
Orban should be charged as an accomplice to Putins crimes against humanity.
Yes
Absolutely
Thank you for making this so clear to understand and see what is happening in the EU. We of course have our noses in our own backyard, but need to see the whole world view.
USA..⚰️🪦

I'm going to send this to family and friends to watch. Idk if they will, but I have to try. Trump supporters who will lose so much if Trump gets back into office. Can't skim over what 2025 actually means.!!!
When she compares Trumps intentions to what Orban did in Hungary is not new. That's what maybe America doesn't see but the whole Western world sees. Also in Germany, Hitler started with winning the 'uneducated' and we all know what happened next. It's a crazy world.
Trump has already debunked this theory. You guys and gals have a serious case of Trump derangement syndrome., SMH.
4 years of prosperity is all you will get from trump, just like his first 4 years. Get a grip people.
Every day! Following HCR for the past few years.
Thank you Brian & Heather for the common sense approach. I’m a 58 yr old, who has voted republican most of my life, but I do not recognize my party any longer. Trump is a clear & present danger to this country. Keep educating voters! 💙💙💙 ps I bought Heather’s book!
Frightening! I am 84 years old and grew up in occupied by the Nazis in Denmark and I KNOW that the impossible nightmare Heather lays out here is very real.

I am going to contact her to get suggestion how I can be most effective in stopping this selfish evil destructive machine. It so sick! Give me strength to use the rest of my life to make a difference.

Don't fear of "threats". The real dangers are here already. With open border, terrorists are abound in the US, towns are overtaken my illegal immigrants, failing economy, high inflation, etc. People can't afford housing or to get foods for their kids are real threat!. Parents have no rights over their children's welfare is real threat! Tragic! World war 3 looming is real threat. More bloodshed! May God help this country

Technically it was 3yrs.
Trump played golf (badly) for 1 whole year.
You are insane! We still aren't recovering from Brandon's disaster!
That's with our Congress we still are dealing with Mike Johnson the speaker of House and Marjorie Greene, Lauren Boebert, Jim Jordan and Matt Gaetz who are working against us for Trump.
Trump was and is a disaster. Laughing stock every time he opened his mouth. USA lost its mind by electing him in the first place. Despicable man and despicable party.
He's never left. He has his fake shadow presidency set up at his tacky Florida club. He's continued to menace the US, illegally meet world leaders, manipulate elected politicians, and give speeches behind a seal that looks like POTUS (but says "maralago). He's turned the GOP into a criminal gang.
Trump should already be in prison for treason.
Right
Totally Agree
Agree. My fear is if he’s elected he will be a figurehead because he’s old and in cognitive decline and Vance and Thiel by extension will be the ones taking over.
At the very least for sedition!
The fact that he isn't should show you exactly what you're fighting against right now. Keep fighting for democracy America, we need you to. 🏴

I watched this for the first time today.....and after the results of the election, I'm honestly at this moment in time, I've had my faith in America and its people and in particular those that will be most affected - blacks and Latino's - somewhat vanquished.
We went into this with our eyes wide open. We all saw what we saw, we all heard what we heard.
At least these two groups were allowed to cast her last vote. And they decided that they want to leave the country. Or rather get to leave the country.
@@sechsauge if they cast a vote, they are citizens and inside the country or outside, they remain citizens.
And few are the countries that will accept them on a permanent basis without their seeking citizenship there. Also, returning to Puerto Rico isn't leaving the country, it remains part of the US.
@@spvillano That was not what I was saying. Those groups will be deported. Having voted for him is like having deported yourself.
You know what is really sad? I know more than one person who went and cast a vote for him, and they have never watched his speeches, rallies or interviews. I've watched them all and my opinion of him comes from everything that he has said and done himself, not what anyone has said about him. One of his voters said "you're being manipulated by the media, you should be stronger than that". I believe that's the mentality of a lot of people who voted for him, they don't take on the responsibility to know things for themselves because they don't trust themselves, so they don't listen to anything but the things they soak up from the people around them.
@@sechsauge my favorite type was during the early campaign, where some brain trusts threatened me with deportation.
Even had it in person, which was more fun, as then they'd hear in my best South Philly accent, "Where ya gonna deport me to, South Philly?!", although the response is the same, the accent really pulls the rug out from under the imbecile.
Given my parents were also born in South Philly and on my maternal grandmother's side are sons and daughters of the American Revolution.
In many ways, pro-Trump voters remind me of Jonestown, allowed peer pressure to drive them to drink the Flavor Aid.
Vote for the country you want, not the candidate you want. No to Project 2025.

Too many yes men around Trump
@@AlphaDeltaBravo-t8j In short, because he rules THROUGH FEAR!
He made an example of Liz Cheney, then it was a steady trickle of GOP surrender...pathetic!
I never knew the Left to be so.... moral. I mean, if it were, why then do they demand the murder of children for the one-night flings of their mother and father? Truly horrible behavior. Have adulterous sex and murder the baby after. What high ground are you coming from again?
Since he doesn't know beans about anything like governing or democracy, he just listens to what will make him rich and famous. No future for us in that kind of leader.

Ms. Richardson is so intelligent and she needs to be heard by all Americans.
But doesn’t go back to the evils on which the nation was founded. Evil didn’t suddenly appear in the American psyche with this particular descendent of the Nazis
And the south has not recovered, and will not for some time. The education in the south is sadly lacking. It brings out the stupid in it's people.
I live in the south and have for 70 years.
I agree. All Americans, especially the young, should be made graphically aware of the evil threat the Marxist controlled Democrat Party poses. They have infused the concept of globalism into every facet of American culture. Admittedly, it will take an extraordinary effort to identify and permanently remove the causes and repair the damage done. But, it is well within our capability. Donald Trump is just the beginning.
What Americans do from now till November will determine future history!

Agreed. Dear American friends, please remember Sinclair Lewis` warning "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross."
And it won't be done in November. Republicans will not accept their loss and will try to steal the election once again.

@AnaterZ Is it shit policy to restore women's reproductive lives, allowing the middle class to own homes, lowering the price of prescription drugs, having the child tax credit set, and more for families with newborns. The Dems have been hard at work since day 1 and the Biden/Harris team has accomplished so much. Infrastructure, caping the price of prescription drugs..etc. All your guy did was give the top 1% their tax credits....he cannot even stay on topic. He's such a cry baby and is triggered by everything. He's a very unserious and unstable man. I've read a couple if articles on Trump's economic policies and Harris is correct....what he wants will create everything we purchase to go up. We can debate all day, but in the end...as Elizabeth Warren so eloquently stated, "Shoot, I wouldn't trust those guys to move my couch".

I was just looking her up. She should have a channel!
I grew up in East-Germany. Lived there for 23 years before the wall came down. Now I live in a democracy for almost 35 years and see all of it in danger. Like in the USA today.
I fully agree with mrs. Cox. All her comments and explanations reflect my experience living in a faschist system. The really bad news from me for you educated, liberal Americans out there is that you have certainly 40 % of your population who are totally fine to live in an authoritarian system. Because of the concept of abdication . abdication of responsibility. This is the real poison that will destroy your society. And unfortunately over the times you’ll have additional 20-30 % who will adapt to such society.
Therefore Prof Cox predicted that the return of democracy won’t happen in her lifetime. I’d say 100 years of darkness before the light.
Americans cannot imagine how fast a society can broke. You’ve read about, you watched movies about. But experience it on your own it’s a complete different story.
May god bless the American voters on 5th of November. If you guys screw it up over there our lights in Europe will turn off too…

German - Swiss American here! I highly recommend that peoplevread the book Learning from the Germans: RACISM abd the Memory of EVIL by a Jewish- American woman ,Susan Neiman. She is the Director of the Einstein Institute in Berlin ,Germany. She was raised in the segregated South in the 1960's. She is a professor of Philosophy abd raised her 3 children in Germany. She still lives there! Susan makes the point that after WWII Germany had to accept their defeat and move on . To EVOLVE !

I heard that Trump keeps a book of Hitler by his bedside.
I‘m German and really thankful for your comment. All you need to do is read a book about German history in the first half of the 20th century. Btw: We didn‘t accept defeat, we welcomed freedom and democracy.
@@jasonschulz3819 I heard that too.
Thank you. I will look up Susan Neuman’s book.
@jasonschulz3819 Donald's father Fred Snr was a member of the American Nazi group. This group was called The Bund - and supported Hitler & NAZI Idealogy. They held a huge rally at Madison Square Garden. Look it up. Donald's Mein Kampf book was confirmed by his first wife. He read it some times in her presence. Kept in his bedside table drawer - on his side of the bed.
We can't let Trump/Vance get into office! It is obvious that Trumps health is declining and it gives me utter panic to think of JD Vance running OUR Country.
It's utter panic if Trump is representing our country!! Both of them are a big "NO WAY" for m, too!!! VOTE BLUE ALL THE WAY SAY NO TO TRUMP AND PROJECT 2025! Save our democracy!!
Vote blue not red.
BLUE IS THE ONLY CHOICE .🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊.
Maybe it's their plan for trump to cheat and get the presidency by fraudulent electors and then take him out so they can have a jd vance dictatorship- that'll be a nightmare come true.
vance will institute the American version of the lebensborn- the nazi directive to breed aryan children for the unified reich.
It would be great to invite her back for another interview post-election.
This woman is so intelligent! Thank you Heather Cox Richardson!
For those who say "we already had 4 years of trump& we all survived".... please ask the loved ones of the 1,104,000 who died of COVID-19 in the USA.
😔
Greene actually had said "only the sick and elderly were supposed to die." If people aren't terrified by another trump administration, they're not paying attention
It's iratating that no one talks about the million people gone 😢
not to mention life is supposed be more about just surviving.....lmfao..... donnie shit stains will most definitely tear america apart even more than he did the first time ....once you fucken break something it never works the same again

as a Hungarian, the US can still stop the same that happened to us happening to your beautiful country! Learn from our mistake, you still got a chance in this November to turn this around, towards a a lot more beautiful future! I believe that the whole world is watching you right now, and so much is at stake. But it's time to finally get optimistic again! ✌️ 💙 🗳️ 🇺🇸
Fantastic comment ! ..greets from the Netherlands
Another one of the netherlands thans you for your comment
Spent time in Hungary about 40 years ago, where Russia was reducing its influence but still hated; everybody was looking forward, working 2 jobs (got one and their real one) and things seemed optimistic. Then I see what is happening now and find it quite shocking.
@@ME-ol9gk People are very poor on average, which makes many of them hateful/desperate and thus more become criminal, no free media only propaganda, Hungary actually gets a net+ billions from the EU every year, but it's never felt by the population as it all goes towards BS decided by Orbán... all while making propaganda against the feeding hand EU for trying to "control" them. Extremely xenophobic, very limited freedom of expression in the wider public (lot's of censorship even when it comes to theater etc.), book banning in schools in exchange for more "patriotic" books for children, stories of teachers literally drawing swastikas on the blackboard...
It all started with Orbán legally getting elected but since then he made damn sure he stays in power indefinitely by changing the constitution etc. Sounds familiar?
But of course people are so brainwashed after years of Orbán, that they don't direct their hatred against him, but against the "evil" immigrants, who "make them poor" (meanwhile Hungary actually has the least amount of immigrants in all of the EU lol)
I am so sorry for what has happened to Hungary. I pray for your country.
My god this woman is brilliant! She needs her own show. Besides Substack.
Trump should be thrown in jail 💯
So should Biden and his entire corrupt family!
Should have been already on the 6th.
@@GarywhitetrumphobgobblerYes. That is what gaslighters do when they know they're talking to idiots.

Observing from Canada, I am hoping for a Democratic win 'all the way down the ticket'. To have our 'sleeping elephant' descend into Christian Nationalist Facism would be extremely disappointing for me. Rooting for the Dems from Canada!
Thank you for your support, Delilah!! 🇨🇦🇺🇲💙

Wow. This lady has it all together. Every person in this country should see this. She is so insightful and articulate. Thank you Brian, you hit the jackpot with this guest.
Follow her if you don't.. she has kept so many of us sane over the last 8 years!
She so clearly predicted it will be a dictatorship if Trump wins. Brian, please bring her back on the show. ❤
YES, have her back on post election.😉🌸✌️🏽🇺🇸
Eight years ago, everyone accused Democrats of not taking Trump seriously, but taking him literally, while Republicans took him seriously, but not literally. Sadly, eight years later we better all take him both seriously and literally. Thank you for this terrific interview. It should strike terror in everyone, and get them to get out and vote for Harris
This is a powerful interview, it needs to be widely broadcast.everyone needs to send this.
WHY IS THIS NOT ON NEWS STATIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD, WHY❓NOT EVERYONE GOES TO CLICK ON YOU TUBE.
As an Australian, I am well aware of what Trump is trying to do.
Don't let him get away with it, in any form.
After defeating Trump this election, the laws that constrain the presidency have to be tightened, and made certain.
Another Australian, watching in horror, and dismayed and can't fathom how this ridiculous man who has a serious Personality Disorder is able to stand for re- election....corrupting the country and endangering his country and the rest of the world.
But why hasn't that ALREADY happened during the current administration? I simply don't understand.
Say the democrats who forcefully removed Biden and installed another invalid.
@@mofam8219because the democrats are corrupt as hell. They don’t care about you.
When Harris wins, she should not be in hurry to repeal all the supreme courts recent rulings. There is one she could use to fix the supreme court problem. Yep.
This video needs to go viral. We are experiencing everything 3 months later.
Can we charge the Supreme Court Justices with Treasonous acts?
They need to be impeached first.
Vance is a loser to he has no class a trump lover go away
Can the people sue SCJs?
@@scottfirman🤣🤣🤣🤣
We should. They lied at their confirmation hearings and 6 of them should be arrested and jailed as soon as their king starts anything.
It's beyond ridiculous he's still roaming free it's beyond absurd
Right?!?!?
Exactly everytime he gets away with a crime and a lie he is fueled in his fever. But now that he packed the Supreme Court he gas the immunity if a Dictator 😢

Brian, Hundreds of thousands of Americans of all ethnicities have died for our freedom. Their death should not be in vain, we will not dishonor them. We will not go back!
That's why we need to get Trump back in the White House!
exactly well said.

This lady is great. This election was horrible.
Please, we as Americans cannot and will not allow this. Please vote to KEEP our Constitutional Republic and Democracy. We don't need a dictator.
Did you vote for Kamala ? Where is your Democracy when it came to your presidential candidate?
Looks like a dictator was appointed by the DNC . Nobody voted for her
And more importantly, we don’t want one.
It's to late. American instituations have become to weak due to polarization. If Trump does not topple democracy this election, someone else will in a later election.
In case you were too stupid to notice USA has been a military dictatorship since 1945.

Covid: a million lost souls. 🤍🙏🏻🕊️Ignoring the pandemic when warned in 11-2019 was dereliction of duty. Many could have been prevented with greater and quicker response.
No kidding.... that is horrible. Vote Blue 💯 percent stay true
Covid deaths, separated families, many tragic losses for sure!
Listen to this woman. She understands what is happening 😢😢😢😢
Finally! Thank you Heather for bringing religion in. This is the particular flavor of cruelty that is our history, in fact Christianity is history itself. This is what we must break away from.
I spent 3 years in the US in the 90‘s and back argued that there was a concrete risk for the country to slip into authoritarianism (as a German, I guess I am oversensitive). My friends laughed off any such prospect, I.e. the US culture was intrinsically immune to fascism. And that lack of awareness of potential slippery slope is the exact reason why fascism could take over in a lightning. It took the NSDAP exactly less than two months to turn a (polarized) Weimar Republic into a one-party state. Don’t ever believe it „cannot happen here“
Also the European democracies that were built out of the ruins of WWII have more solid democratic institutions. Proportional representation eg has its issues but it avoids a minority to take control of the country. The US still relies on an institutional structure that is more 200 years old and it shows. It’s the electoral college that allowed Trump to become president even when he lost the popular vote. It’s the senate that allows republicans to exercise an overinflated influence on US politics compared to their actual votes share. Not to mention scotus. Too many weak spots that bad actors can exploit to their advantage.
Those who want this will soon regret it when the people they choose to do this comes after them...
@@geraldstephens6612 MAGA are ALREADY descending into purges and infighting. Look how Rogan and that kid who murdered protestors were brought to heel in less than a day.
The dirty secret is the "F word" in American politics has always been Fascism. Prescott Bush the father and grandfather of both George's was not only a Nazi sympathizer but a full on Nazi collaborater. GHW Bush joked about it. Our country supported Franco and all these Central/South American dictators simply because for their anti-communist stance. This is scratching the surface.
Thank you. It cannot be said often enough!
Canadian here. Just love watching all the Harris/Walz rallies. Now that’s character, positivity, patriotism, honesty and care for the middle class at its finest! Wow!🇨🇦🙏🇺🇸
what are we doing in Canada?
our bland Stephen Harper & fellowCons are part of the wanna-be authoritarian network. We ignore this at our peril.
If Trump does win and after listening to this, I may leave the country!! I would pick Canada first. I know there are a lot of hoops to go through but it would be worth it!
What a load of trolls in here! How can anyone buy something like these 2 deepstate puppets say? She sits and warns that Trump will do things that the Democrats have already been doing for 8 years! Lying about "a strong economy" when you are about to go under! Look at reality today, not wat what these 2 sharlatans are sitting and making up is going to happen..... and then we will not talk about Trudeau's fachist dictatorship. You have given away your freedom to a crazy narcissist, and your children will hate you for it!

If you have racism, fascism is lurking in the background.😭
In Hungary Orban controls EVERYTHING from the three branches of government, though the private business sector down to arts and culture. It's a new fascism.
Add institutionalized corruption which made Orban the richest person in the country through several front men.
Dr. Richardson speaks truth. It is urgent that we LISTEN!

Thank you for having Heather Cox Richardson on your show. She is awesome!

Comparing Trump to Hitler is idiotic and irresponsible. That is why democrats are wetting their pants because they think the president will sick the goons on them. People spreading this nonsense should be ashamed.
Dr Richardson is one of the best historians of our time. Thank you!
Heather Cox is brilliant
Heather is absolutely right. I hope enough people hear this.
The argument that we "survived" 4 years of trump is outrageous! Over a MILLION people died because of his inept handling of covid.
Including my dearest uncle. I will never forget this.
I like it when they say it with their chest!! Well said!! Cause he damn sure made sure HE HAD EVERYTHING AVAILABLE FOR HIMSELF!!
@@witta505 - Mine too. Basically alone on a table in an emergency room in NY. Couldn't get to him.
It was more than mishandling. He outright lied from the beginning. He bungled airport intake of travelers creating a breeding ground of covid. Then refused to have the federal government involved in providing supplies, including what were called "blue" states. Trump deliberately killed 100s million people.
Exactly, over a million dead.
I totally respect this woman. We r lucky to have her wisdom and knowledge.
A woman who is applying for the most important job in the world is intimidated by going to a charity fundraiser? How is this clown going to handle world leaders ? Hmm?
Really enjoyed listening to this, this should be shared far and wide across the US
