Anti-Trumpers Tell Me To Read The News
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Or, like she says, pulling kids off the street.
Can you give me an example of who's that happening to?
Watch the news.
I just want an example.
If you could tell me the example you see it every single day, they see the similarities.
People are age and older.
They saw what the Nazi regime did.
These things have happened before in history.
And it's eerily similar and it's frightening.
And so when people are scared, they do use labels and lash out.
Welcome to the Farmer's Market.
We're filming a YouTube video.
Sorry, I'm right in.
I didn't mean to.
No, hold hands, hold hands.
That's great.
That's great.
That's beautiful.
Right there.
Right there.
It's great for the video.
We're asking people on a scale of one to 10, 10 being the highest, how would you rate Donald Trump's drop so far in a second term?
Oh, you don't know.
Something lower than zero.
I got a negative 50 today.
There you go.
All right.
Why negative 50?
He's just a deplorable person in about every measurable way and doesn't deserve to be our president.
Okay.
Don't like the way he's taking our country.
Okay.
What way is he taking our country?
We're not together anymore.
We are not.
I don't think people are free to say what they feel like.
Especially when you're talking about locking up this person and beating up that person for an opinion.
Just because they differ from him, you know.
Yeah.
Do you think it's divisive when we have a lot of people on the left claiming Trump supporters and everyone in the Trump administration to be Nazis or ICE agents or the Gestapo or they're going to bring fascism to America, Project 2025, and that there's a lot of wild and really scary accusations against the right wing and Trump supporters in his administration.
Do you think that can cause radicalization?
Yeah, that's a problem as well.
Perfect.
Absolutely.
Do you think you would see that it comes more from the left or more from the right?
Well, I feel it more from the right because I feel like when the president tells me that I'm a terrorist because I'm liberal or I'm a Democrat or I voted for a certain point.
He's made those comments.
I don't heard of that.
If you could just tell me maybe the context or when he said it or what exactly he said.
The context was on a YouTube video that I heard it.
Okay.
Yeah.
If I had to guarantee you, he probably was talking about Antifa, which are violent, radical, left-wing people.
That's the way you interpreted it.
Yeah.
But when I hear, when I hear the weird, when I hear the words come out of his mouth, I take it personally.
Okay.
And when I hear him, you know, say that I'm un-American or I'm radical or crazy, or I think he's used the term terrorist.
Can I clarify that?
Do you go out there and put a mask on and wear all black and throw Molotov cocktails at ICE agents?
Of course not.
I don't think he was talking about you.
He was talking about those violent protesters.
He labeled them a terrorist organization because they are engaging in terrorism, violence for a political end.
I'm just a Trump supporter.
Okay.
Well, and what you're doing is you're putting your interpretation on what he said.
I think there's only one interpretation.
I have my interpretation on what he said.
If you could correct me, he did not say that Democrats and people who vote for the Democratic Party are terrorists.
That's not what he said.
If you could give me any proof and like, maybe I'm wrong.
But that wouldn't have to be the only example to how he's devised it, though.
You have to admit.
Yeah, he likes to troll.
He likes to get under people's skin.
I think the divisiveness, excuse me, is coming from the left wing.
When they accuse people like me of being a Nazi or a fascist or they're creating all this dangerous, violent rhetoric that radicalizes people, especially against ICE agents, police officers, and just people wearing MAGA hats out there.
I think the divisiveness is primarily coming from the left wing.
I think that you're going to definitely have to admit that it's on both sides.
100%.
I don't think so.
And until you can admit that, then I don't think you can truly understand the problems of this country.
There's no.
I see people I used to be friends with and know get shot in the neck with bullets written on their anti-catch this fascist.
That's something that I get called all the time.
I just left a protest of about 20 people naming everything that the Trump administration has done as fascism.
People are scared because people are genuinely believing this radicalization and this rhetoric that Trump is a fascist.
And that's a very scary thing to think about, right?
And that radicalizes people to violence.
The reason they use that term is because they see the similarities.
People our age and older and people that have studied history, you know, they saw what the Nazi regime did and how they spoke.
And, you know.
So what similarities are there from the Nazi regime and Trump and the Trump administration?
Well, I think when you start to delegitimize the courts, that's the first step.
I think when you start talking about locking up your enemies, that's one of the steps.
When you start trying to demonize the media, that's another step.
These things have happened before in history.
And it's eerily similar, and it's frightening.
And so when people are scared, they do use labels and lash out.
But I think when we use labels like Nazis and fascists, that's dangerous.
That radical, well, he just, well, you say you don't do it, but he just compared Trump and the Trump administration to the Nazis in Germany.
No, no, no.
And I just want to explain.
No, no, no, there's nobody.
You said that there are similarities.
You brought it up.
Did you say that there are similarities?
You asked.
And I'm trying to explain to you why people might use that term.
Right.
Yeah.
And I want to explain to you guys.
I didn't use that with me calling him.
Did you say there are similarities?
Yes.
I said that there are similarities between what the Nazis did before they went to as they were as they were getting power.
And that's frightening.
And I pointed out those similarities.
I'm not going to go over it again.
Using the courts.
So like when Trump was persecuted and they tried to jail their political opponents, right?
In January 6th, they locked up thousands of people for walking into the Capitol building.
I know somebody who was in jail for 13 months.
He's a photojournalist taking pictures.
He did.
He was taking pictures in a line of people and they locked him in jail for 13 months and he faced up to 20 years in prison for that.
That is using the courts against your political.
I'm not going to be in prison.
I think it's a disgrace.
I think it's a disgrace that he pardoned those people.
All of them?
With a blanket pot.
Yes, he should have done it case by case.
Now, maybe there are situations where somebody was not as a whole.
Right.
And just to say these are my people and this was wrong and pardons for everybody.
Well, I think it's interesting.
He pardoned all of those people.
And the violence that we're seeing in this country is primarily coming from the left wing, not from those people who were called insurrectionists.
They're violent.
They want to take over the country and they want to get Trump as a dictator.
It's really interesting that those aren't the people that we've been warned about.
They're not the ones committing the violence today.
The left wing are.
Can you tell me?
Can you tell me any right-wing violence?
Because I can list off to you.
Sending the National Guard into these cities where there's really no disregard?
Well, if there's no disregard.
So when they send an Olympic, I think he's over.
And it's only in Democratic cities.
That's where the crime is the highest.
If you could prove me wrong, you could let me know.
You know, Rudolph.
Okay.
That's right-wing terrorism.
Okay.
There's an example for it.
Okay.
Okay.
Can you name anything more recent?
Come up with more, something more recent.
Well, I can name like five things of left-wing terrorism going in left-wing violence just in the past few months.
There's been about 30 violent assaults just in the last few months against ICE agents, police officers assisting them, or federal officer building.
They're doing a job that they shouldn't be doing.
None of those people are not going to be able to do it.
When you're pulling children off the street and you are pulling agents violence or like she says, pulling kids off the street.
Families off the street just because they look a specific way.
Can you give me an example of who's that happening to?
Watch the news.
I just want an example.
If you could tell me the example, you see it every single day.
it's on every news station ice agents every day are going down the streets and just picking up people because of their that's a really scary terrible thing that you told me that's happening and if you have proof i do want to see because if that's happening i want to stand against it my advice to you is to never agree with whatever side you're on 100 percent of the time i don't i think i think that deportations should should increase i think we should have more
deportations you can't come up with five things that you don't like about the right wing you didn't ask me i can or okay if you if you can that's good then i think then i think you're on the right track i can do the same thing with five things that i don't like about my advice to you would be tone down the when you're comparing nazis and our president and his administration because people are getting hurt because it's radicalizing people with that rhetoric because imagine someone who might be susceptible to
fear and anxiety being told oh your president is very similar to a nazi just wait to see what happens because people are lying about him People think that because they're lying and people are getting hurt because they think we're trying to put a Nazi in as a dictator.
And that's not true.
He's not a Nazi.
He's not a fascist.
How is he acting like a dictator?
How is he acting like a dictator, though?
I don't know where you got all warm and fuzzy about.
How is he acting like a dictator?
If it's not his way, it's no way.
And that is the way he has been for a long time.
He doesn't compromise.
He doesn't, I mean, he's he just needs to pull people together from both sides.
He just brokered a peace deal with Palestine and Israel with compromises.
So that's literally proves you wrong.
Our own people.
Yeah, the courts have been blocking almost everything that he's done.
And he has.
The Israeli conflict is over.
Is that what you're telling me?
No, they just started.
This has been going on.
No, there's a lot.
There's thousands of years.
That's great.
Well, I would love to explain.
Well, then, I guess you could give Trump credit, right?
I didn't know.
Yeah.
So he brokered a peace deal to release the hostages have been their houses have been caught on fire.
They've been shot at or they've been.
He never, you know, he never apologizes to them.
He never says he's sorry to any of them.
Why would he need to apologize for that?
Why would people need to apologize for James Kirk?
It's a horrible thing.
It's Charlie Kirk, number one.
And I'm not asking for anyone to apologize for what happened to him except the person and the people who are responsible.
What I'm asking for, ma'am, what I'm asking for is the rhetoric to be toned down and people to stop labeling people like him a racist, a fascist.
It does not, it's not both sides.
It's not both sides.
You know what was written on a bullet that was meant to shoot Charlie Kirk?
Look, I'm sure that.
Hey, fascist.
Catch.
People lie about Trump supporters being fascist.
He does either.
But Charlie Kirk does either.
There's people that don't like what a Democrat does.
But people were radical.
It's not on both sides.
Can you point to where there have been multiple dozen, dozens and dozens of attacks against right-wingers?
I'm sorry, against left-wingers.
This kind of turned into a really contentious discussion.
And I don't know if that's what you want.
I don't know if you just ambushed us to try to get that.
I'm just asking for proof that he's a dictator and I don't have any.
And then I'm asking you guys to stop saying that because it's getting people like me killed out here and it's getting us assaulted and it's getting ICE agents hurt.
And violence against ICE agents, I am watching, has gone up a thousand percent.
People are trying to kill them.
That doesn't get anybody hurt.
It does.
And we see that with Charlie Kirk calling him.
Trump didn't call anybody a dictator.
You're right.
You're right.
People called him one.
And they called him a fascist.
And they called his president a fascist.
And they call all of us fascists.
And then they go and they kill us for it.
You're really connecting dots that aren't there.
Okay.
So I'm just what killed Charlie Kirk?
I'm sorry about Charlie Kirk.
Yeah, so am I.
I don't know who he was.
Obviously, it was somebody you cared about.
Nobody deserves to be shot.
I appreciate you saying that.
Okay.
Yeah, and I mean that.
No, I know you mean that.
I don't believe that you think he deserves that shit.
That's not really, that shouldn't have any effect on how I feel about President Trump.
So I'm not asking it to affect how you feel about President Trump.
I'm asking it to affect how you talk about the right wing and Donald Trump in general.
And I'm, hold on, just let me finish.
Just let me finish.
One second.
All I'm asking you, I don't ask you to care about Donald Trump or like him or vote for him.
I'm just saying maybe chill the rhetoric when it comes to likening him to Nazis or saying that he's acting like a dictator.
Because then when we vote for him, then you're saying that we support a dictator and we're fascists and we're putting everybody in this country in danger by voting for a dictator.
And that gets people killed.
I think people voted for Trump because they were lied to.
And I think that time will show that I'm right on the dictator thing.
Now, I don't go around stopping people on the street and telling them, I think Trump's a dictator.
What do you think?
Okay.
I'm not out looking to trigger anybody.
Cool.
But don't tell me to tone down my rhetoric when you ask me for examples of how Trump is acting like a dictator, and I give you three.
Okay.
Yeah, I don't think you gave me any proof.
I asked you for proof on that, but you didn't give me, but that's okay.
We don't have to go into it.
We're at a farmer's market school.
I appreciate you.
I appreciate you as well.
I appreciate you as well.
Thank you.
And tell your wife I said I appreciate her as well.
I will.
Thank you.
As you guys can see, I'm trying to come out here in the public square and just kind of de-radicalize people.
Please stop calling us these things that are getting us killed and us hurt and attacked.
Because they just won't stop.
I'm asking you guys to go to patreon.com slash Caitlin Bennett.

All of it goes to my security to keep me safe out here.
Until they stop with their violent rhetoric that radicalizes people, I can't be without security.
