He used to have a brashness that could withstand people laughing at him. Yeah, and now I don't know if that's the case, brutal.

Compounding the suspiciousness of this is the fact that Deaver publicly presented himself as a teetotaler and a devout Mormon.

I noticed in your video yesterday that you posted about this deposition that you told and which you later published on your website that you told your audience that you're a common man, right? Yep. And you said that Connecticut is really a bedroom community for all the richest people in New York, right? Yeah, billionaires and people like Larry Think and folks that have robbed the country for trillions, yeah. But you're the common man, right? Yeah, I am the common man.

Well, it gets weirder because he said, so he shows me these two very, no, three very interesting antique books. And he said, and look at this one. And one of them, as I recall, was like one of those flip books where you get a moving picture when you flip the pages. Yeah. Not the same type of antique books that I was thinking of. Right. I was thinking more like, oh, this is a first edition Robinson Crusoe, not like, this flip book is from the 70s. That was a first edition of... No, they were old. They were very, very old. No, they were. And it was kind of like, let me dig out some really interesting finds for you. He comes up with these three books. And you know from his opening arguments, Norm prides himself on how well-read he is. I think he cited, you know, the great philosophers and all the way down to Shoshana Zuboff in his opening remarks. And he was talking about her book. As well, not only during his opening remarks, but back in 2019 when I first visited with him. But anyway, so he shows me these three books and I thought, oh, that's really interesting. And then a couple months go by and I read a profile of him in Connecticut Magazine. And the reporter comes in and he says, oh, let me show you my library. Look at these three interesting books. Same three books.

My point is that I think that when you read actual interviews with George Soros, one of the things that you see most frequently is a humility about himself, a sense of humor about his own positions and his place in the world. And his failures. Yeah, and his failures. Yeah. And being forthright about it. It doesn't... He doesn't, if you actually read his words and some of the books that he's written, he doesn't fit the picture that the right-wing media puts out of him.
