The STORY BEHIND JOE BIDEN Supporting Impeachment | Rudy Giuliani | Ep. 106
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Hello, this is Rudy Giuliani with Rudy's Common Sense.
Today's episode is going to be the story behind Biden's supporting the impeachment trial.
Now, remember, he originally was noncommittal and seemed to be raising the suggestion that such a trial might be difficult, might create division.
And since it's a removal of a person already removed, might even create more division as a result of that.
However, several days ago, he made what appeared to be a sudden shift and said that he believes that a trial is necessary in the Senate.
He also suggested that there might not be enough votes to actually result in a removal Or I guess conviction, if you want to call it that, because it's a strange case because they're removing somebody who's already been removed, if you can do that.
Now, here's why this is so important and such a significant key.
To where we're going at a very early stage with Joe Biden.
Let me see if we can go through the background of this because I think it'll tell you a lot more about Joe Biden than just that one switch on what you could consider maybe something just to satisfy his base.
Joe Biden ran.
Really on one theme, and one theme alone, he would be a uniter.
It was to play off what he described as the tremendous amount of disunity and division that the incumbent President Donald Trump created in the United States.
And if there was a theme to his campaign, and it was a very abbreviated campaign, it would be that he would be, I think he called himself the uniter-in-chief.
That's what he would bring the country back together again after the partisan divisions that existed under Trump, and although he didn't say it, under Obama.
Remember the Tea Party movement in 2010 and the big division in America under Obama.
So, whenever he got a chance, he would say, I'm going to unite.
He'd use a few things to suggest how he would do that, but very little specifics.
And then at his inaugural address, I didn't take the time to count the number of times he used the word unite, but he used it quite a bit.
And the theme of that speech clearly was, I'm going to bring you together.
I'm going to unite you.
This is how I define my presidency.
Now, almost every presidency has a theme.
Particularly at the beginning.
Sometimes they live up to it, sometimes they don't.
And sometimes the theme changes as the administration moves along.
Trump, easy, right?
Make America great.
Subtext, clean out the swamp.
Those were the themes of his campaign.
To a large extent, a lot of what he did as president.
Not the only thing.
He made peace.
He straightened out regulatory burdens, things like that.
But the whole purpose of it was to make America great again.
And in order to do that, to clean out the swamp, which later became known as the Deep State.
Ronald Reagan, who I had the honor of serving, his theme was quite simple, actually.
It was to end communism and fix the economy.
He literally had two Almost equal themes.
But end communism would be the more powerful one because it dated back to his very early days and first entry into politics.
So it was significantly a big part of it.
Clinton really was to moderate the Democrat Party.
The Democrats had lost several elections to Republicans, twice to Reagan, once to Bush, largely by the Republicans painting the Democrats as being too far left and out of the mainstream.
So Clinton had been part of this group known as the New Democrats, which included Al Gore.
They were considered to be more moderate because they were southern governors, and he was going to govern from the middle again.
In contrast to what he said was Bush and Reagan governing from the right and the Democrats governing too much from the left.
And then Obama, hard to say really what his theme was because it was a historic election.
The theme was making history with a young man, relatively little experience, but the first African-American president of the United States.
And I would say Although he didn't emphasize it as much in his campaign, the thing that made him famous was his speech at the Democrat convention in which he, in which he, in 04, I believe it was, in which he talked about, there's only one America.
There's no black America and white America and whatever, whatever, just one America.
Not really emphasized as much during the campaign as it was the thing that made him famous, but still not abandoned.
Until maybe he got into the presidency.
So when he started, that was the theme.
So what's Biden's initial theme?
What's clearly Unite?
Over and over again, as I said in the inaugural speech, over and over again during the campaign, and then all the commentators giving him great praise for an inaugural address that was rather pedestrian, very short.
Had no substance, and if it had one piece of substance at all, it was, he was doing it nice.
This would be time to take a short break.

Thank you for returning.
Immediately, he began signing more executive orders than any president in modern memory.
And the executive orders—not all of them, but many of them—were hardly inspiring unity.
They were on deeply divided subjects in which Half the American people feel one way and half the American people feel the other way very, very strongly.
Keystone Pipeline, it might even be more than half the American people.
And also it meant an immediate loss of 11,000 jobs.
One of the things you don't want to do when you're coming off is immediately put people out of work, which is what he did.
A lot of things in that first 30 executive orders went clearly to the left, the situation with athletes, so that many, many people, even on his side, believe that female athletics has been ruined by his adopting the very far left-wing definitions of gender and gender selection and all the complexities of that.
But we could go on and on about those.
That many of them seem to be contradictory to the unity theme, because they're issues on which you divide.
And the mere fact that he was signing executive orders is more or less controversial, at least not accepted.
It means that you haven't consulted Congress.
It means you haven't consulted other people.
You haven't brought them into the process.
Much of what he did Probably should be done by legislation and it'll be challenged.
Some of what he did might be challenged constitutionally, but there was no attempt to bring in the Congress, even the Democrats in Congress.
He just straight out did what no president really had ever done before at that level, at least not since the country began and it needed a lot of executive orders on very, very hot button subjects.
He put down his stamp and did it on day one, didn't talk to anybody, didn't include anybody.
Seemed like a pretty strong indication that he was going to move to the left.
But he continued the unity theme, even though right there you can see the contradiction.
The one thing that he was holding out as a sign of healing and unity was he was not jumping behind the heavy Democrat House enthusiasm for yet another impeachment.
I mean, first words of impeachment began the day Donald Trump took office, and we thought we'd hear the last when he left office.
But the enthusiasm among some House Democrats for impeachment is really quite high.
You could see it with their big march from the House to the Senate, with their masks on, walking through the rotunda of the Capitol, as if they were delivering something really positive for the country.
And then all of a sudden, out of the clear blue sky, Joe Biden announces that he thinks a Senate trial is necessary.
And then I believe he also suggests that he doesn't think the votes are there to win the trial, to convict or to remove.
This is where the story is, right?
Because when you take into account all of the executive orders and the net effect of them, moving the country to the left without any consultation, pretty strongly, on environment, very strongly, on whole idea of gender, very strongly, on the Keystone Pipeline itself, wiped it out, And some pretty clear indications that we're moving to a much higher minimum wage.
Many things like that, way to the left, controversial.
Not things designed to unite.
Not Clinton's policy of triangulation, which is almost take away the agenda of the other side, if not meet the other side in the middle.
And Reagan's.
Policy of if you can get 80% of what you want, you more than willingly give away 20%.
And if you even end up at 60-40, you're not doing so bad.
Totally different approach.
Approach designed to create friction when he says he's a uniter.
But this one, this one really kind of proves that The theme of the administration is a head fake.
You know what a head fake is, right?
I mean, it's used in basketball.
You kind of use it in football, too.
You look like you're going in one direction, and then you actually go in the other direction.
When he looks like he's going in the direction of unity, he ran that way, but wow, is he going in the direction of disunity.
When you do this, we'll be back very shortly.

Thank you for returning to our analysis of what unity means to Joe Biden.
Let's just think about this impeachment for a moment.
This is a president that was hounded almost from the day he became a candidate.
This is a president where the full story of just how much he was framed hasn't yet been told, because it's been hidden by the FBI.
There are more documents yet to come out, and there's a report that will probably take another 150 years to complete, but it will eventually come out, that will show that that whole Russian collusion thing is actually what Hillary did, projected to Trump, in order to destroy him as a candidate, and ultimately to destroy him as a president.
By now, the hard drive has proven that the first impeachment, which was defeated, was a total hoax, and that the conversation with the president of Ukraine was necessitated by everything we learn now on the hard drive and the fact that Joe Biden just told a bold-faced lie when he said he didn't know about his son's foreign business.
And not only that, the hard drive shows that he shared in the money that was coming, according to the words of his son, getting half of the proceeds for 30 years.
So that whole history of impeachment has been a history of dividing the country.
I mean, whether you thought they were justified or not, You'd have to admit they divided the country because half the American people and sometimes more believe the president.
And then in each case, even though the unfair press doesn't accept it, in each case the darn thing fell apart.
No Russian collusion.
Conversation necessitated by clear evidence of crimes committed by the Bidens at the highest level of government.
And now another impeachment on the way out.
About certain incitement and insurrection, using words that were milder than many of the words that Maxine Waters and many, many other Democrats have used any number of times during the summer, even his own vice presidential candidate and It almost looked like the support of the Antifa and Black Lives Matter riots by silence and by constant reinforcement of their cause.
Biden's refusal to admit that Antifa is an organization.
He says it's an idea.
Of course, it's an idea that kills people.
All of that was much worse than anything that Trump did.
Trump actually said the words to act peacefully and politically, or some words like that, at the end.
And incitement is a very defined crime.
It means that the words you use have to not be so bad.
It really depends on the effect of the words on the audience, and the audience remain there.
The audience at no time during the speeches that were made by anyone, any of us, ever started to get violent or started yelling and screaming in violent ways.
In fact, it was a rather sedate audience.
It was an enormously cold day, and it went on for quite some time.
And the speeches were I hope inspiring to those people who believe that there's a real issue we have to solve in this country about election integrity.
But the words that we use, if you want to call them fighting words, were all in the context of political disputes.
The words that I used were about two machines being pitted against each other to see which one is more accurate.
The words that he used are words that he uses all the time for sticking to your agenda.
So a very, very strange impeachment on the merits to start with.
But beyond that, it's an unconstitutional impeachment.
And Biden knows that.
It's an absurdity.
Impeachment exists in the Constitution to remove someone from office.
In this particular case, the President of the United States.
That's what it says, to remove from office.
So the impeachment charges you with High crimes and misdemeanor.
You say, well, they really didn't charge him with high crimes and misdemeanors, but okay, let's get past that.
For a purpose.
Not to embarrass him.
Not to necessarily make his life more difficult.
Not to seek revenge.
It has one purpose alone.
One.
One single purpose.
To remove.
Well, he's removed.
So what do we have an impeachment about?
It would be as if I went to court for an injunction to stop a strike that stopped four weeks ago.
I'd say, Judge, I want an injunction to stop that strike.
The judge looked at me and said, Mr. Giuliani, don't you realize the strike stopped four weeks ago?
And gosh, if they ever come back again.
I said, well, you know, there were other things I could have gotten then.
If we had gone ahead, I could have gotten them fined, or I could have gotten them barred from something or other.
The judge would say, well, that's fine, but you didn't, you didn't, You didn't do it then when you could have done it.
They could have impeached him before.
They could have had the trial before he left.
Could have tried, right?
They didn't.
So that's over now.
You got the main relief that exists.
You got the main and only purpose, really, of the proceeding, which is to remove him from office.
And just because there's some collateral consequences that come about if you properly remove him, It doesn't happen once he's out of office.
It's a pretty clear argument.
I mean, I think you gotta be straining it.
I think this would be a good time for a short break.
I couldn't believe we were evicted from our home that we didn't even sell!
Those are the words of a homeowner, Deborah, when she learned she was the victim of home title fraud.
It's a devastating crime that can cost you your home.
And title fraud is not covered by insurance or common identity theft services.
The only folks to trust, that I know of, to protect your home's title is Home Title Lock.
Cyberthieves have discovered the titles to our homes are kept online.
They forge your name on your deed, stating you sold your home, and they refile as the new owner.
In Debra's case, she didn't even know she was a victim until the eviction notice arrived in her mail.
Home Title Lock protects you and your home by putting a virtual barrier around your home's title.
The instant they detect tampering, they mobilize to shut it down.
Go online to hometitlelock.com and register your address to see if you're already a victim and don't know it.
Then use code Rudy.
That's me.
Thank you for returning.
So why would Biden jump into this if he wants to be the uniter in chief?
And why would he go so far on a keystone pipeline?
Just cut it off.
11,000 jobs gone.
Or on embracing the Paris Accords.
Giving away a lot of money to Europe.
No change in the position of China and India.
They're going to continue to pollute.
Whatever you do to the environment, they're going to continue to do it in large numbers that make almost anything we're doing kind of useless except spending a great deal of money on a cause that has taken on for these left-wing Democrats some kind of like religious-like fervor as opposed to science.
So here's the answer, and here's the story behind it.
Joe Biden's theme of his campaign and the theme of his presidency is not going to be uniter.
He doesn't win as a uniter.
He doesn't win as a uniter because he doesn't have the issues on which you unite us.
These are issues that divide us.
And his left-wing base insists on these issues, and I assume he believes in some of these.
You're not going to unite the American people on doing away with oil.
You're not going to unite the American people about once again becoming energy dependent.
You're not going to unite the American people by doing away with hundreds of thousands of jobs because you want to follow a Paris accord that China and India are not following.
You're not going to unite the American people against America not being first.
I mean, that's another one of his announcements.
America, we're going to abandon the America first thing.
The theme of his administration and the way he won was to divide.
He divided the American people by accentuating whatever there was conflict and making the president and his followers demons.
The theme of his presidency is to divide by demonizing.
Trump needs to be treated like no other president because he's an evil, terrible man, and the people closest to him need to be pursued, harassed, kept at least out of polite society, booed when they go into restaurants, have their jobs taken away from them.
And re-educate it.
So, his theory of uniting is to divide, so you get to your 51-52%.
You demonize the opposition, and then the ones who convert can come into the fold, and the others will be lepers, the deplorables.
Those, you know, misguided or evil people who support the terrible policies of the other side and not your wonderful policies of climate change and eventually much higher minimum wage, eventually health care for the illegal aliens doing away with border control.
I want you to watch this now because this is going to work itself out quite a bit.
It's a great spin job.
Unite, unite, unite, and then support a divisive impeachment.
Unite, unite, unite, and then support a divisive cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline.
Unite, unite, unite, and then reverse America's energy independence.
Unite, unite, unite, and cave into China on tariffs.
The purpose here is to solidify the left-wing base and to make it as strong as possible.
And there was some doubt with the 30 or so orders But the support of the impeachment puts the stamp of approval on it.
A very unwise action on the part of the president.
Not only does it show that we're going to be in for four years of exacerbating the divisions between one part of America and another part of America, but we're also going to make very, very little progress.
Consider that this impeachment trial will take off the agenda, everything.
All of the relief for COVID people that's needed, needs to be considered, the program that has to be continued for distributing vaccines and so many other things, dealing with an aggressive competitor like China.
All that stops as the Senate just spends days and days on removing a man from office who's already been removed and who half the American people love.
Very, very bad sign.
Keep watching because you're being faked.
Not only is it fake news, it's a head fake.
Unite?
Mm-mm.
Divide.
Unite?
Divide.
Unite?
Divide.
Keep your 51, 52, 53 percent base.
See if you can grow it.
And then you take these other people.
And it isn't just Trump who's the monster.
It's the people who support them.
They're just as bad.
If you want to unite, you have to be the one to unite.
You can't say the election was stolen.
You can believe it.
You can see evidence of it.
You can see it in living color.
But you must say the election was not stolen.
Then you're united.
This is an America, ladies and gentlemen.
It is exceedingly dangerous.
I think I've noted at a very early stage, and boy, are we going to follow it, because this isn't going to happen.
This has to be contested.
This has to be stopped.
If we really want to be what we aspire to be, which is one nation under God.
Thank you very much.
And we'll be back very shortly for another episode of Rudy's Common Sense.
