| This is an iHeart podcast. | |
| What a great news day this is. | |
| Anyway, glad you're with us. | |
| Thank you, Scott Shannon. | |
| Thanks to all of you for being with us. | |
| Here's our toll-free telephone number. | |
| If you want to be a part of the program, it's 800-941 Sean if you want to join us. | |
| So I was on Fox and Friends this morning, I guess a little before 8:30, somewhere around there. | |
| And anyway, the news just broke that, in fact, Joe Biden came out with a post. | |
| I'm not sure if it was on X. | |
| It was on some social. | |
| I believe it was X. | |
| And what's amazing about this, he put a video out. | |
| Now, here's the funny thing. | |
| It's a very short video. | |
| I think it's about maybe a total of 13 seconds. | |
| And in the video, they must have spliced it, meaning, you know, spliced together each line to make it sound that much more authoritative, which you would never do for a 13-second video. | |
| It's kind of obscene and absurd. | |
| Now, he had said two separate times that he would debate Donald Trump. | |
| He first said it on Howard Stern and then said it again to a passing reporter. | |
| But, you know, oh, this is Joe being really, really, really tough and saying, come on, pal, make my day, pal. | |
| Listen, it's pretty funny. | |
| Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020. | |
| The sense said he hadn't shown up for debate. | |
| Now he's acting like he wants to debate me again. | |
| Well, make my day, pal. | |
| I'll even do it twice. | |
| So let's pick the dates, Donald. | |
| I hear you're free on Wednesdays. | |
| The political coverage. | |
| Look, some of the political players and some of the... | |
| Let me ask a rhetorical question. | |
| Anyways. | |
| Anyway, and apparently they don't want an audience. | |
| I mean, what is part of this behind the scenes? | |
| Is Joe going to want to bring in notes, which has never happened in a presidential debate? | |
| No notes, Joe. | |
| No teleprompter, Joe. | |
| And, you know, okay, so Donald Trump, to his credit, he accepted the offer to debate in June and September. | |
| He agreed, fake news, CNN. | |
| He agreed to an ABC debate. | |
| And then Donald Trump came out with a statement. | |
| And it says, truth, he put it on Truth Social. | |
| Please let this truth serve to represent that I hereby accept debating crooked Joe Biden on Fox News. | |
| The debate will be Wednesday, October the 2nd. | |
| The hosts will be Brett Baer and Martha McCallum. | |
| Thank you. | |
| DJT. | |
| Okay, well, oh, I guess Biden thinks that only he gets to set the standards here. | |
| Really? | |
| Is that how that works? | |
| I don't think so. | |
| Because, by the way, and Donald Trump immediately fired back at Biden and his challenge for debates. | |
| But I guess the Biden people think, well, he gets to set all the terms of the debate. | |
| He only picked four outlets that were acceptable. | |
| What were the four outlets, Linda? | |
| I guess ABC, CNN. | |
| Was it Univision? | |
| I thought it was Paul Patrol, Sesame Street. | |
| All right, can you help me out here? | |
| Only, wait, I got it right here. | |
| Only four media outlets were chosen here. | |
| I'm like, well, hang on a second. | |
| You know, okay, ABC News, CBS News, Fake News, CNN, and Telemundo. | |
| Sorry, but fake news CNN is the lowest rated cable news channel in the country, and they didn't even deal with the issue of whether or not there'll be a pool or whether or not they want to limit it to just one channel, which would lower the viewership and would lower it dramatically. | |
| No, there's details that have to be worked out, and he doesn't get to set all the terms himself. | |
| For example, who will the moderator be? | |
| There can't be any notes. | |
| The fact that I even have to bring that up in the case of Joe Biden, okay, no notes, no teleprompter, Joe. | |
| You don't want an audience. | |
| That actually worked out fine when I did the Biden, the Biden, the Gavin Newsome DeSantis debate. | |
| But Trump blasting the Commission on Presidential Debates is totally controlled by Democrats, but he's willing to debate. | |
| He's willing to go into the lion's den at ABC News and CNN. | |
| Now, I would argue on behalf of my colleagues, Brett Baer and Martha McCallum, that would be a fair debate. | |
| That would not be a slanted debate. | |
| These are news people, and we've seen them moderate debates before. | |
| I personally am insulted that nobody recommended me. | |
| But Linda, do you think that was fair? | |
| I don't think that was fair. | |
| I thought I should. | |
| It definitely wasn't fair. | |
| In the running off. | |
| I would love to see you and Biden have a conversation. | |
| It would be a good question. | |
| Because I'm proud of the debate that we did with Ron DeSantis and Gavin Newsom, and it was very difficult to put together. | |
| I have kept the terms of those negotiations private. | |
| One day I might go public with it, if need be. | |
| But I kept it private because I gave my word that I'd keep it private. | |
| And I believe if you give your word, that's your word is your bond. | |
| That's the end of that. | |
| But who's negotiating for Biden? | |
| I mean, honestly, I mean, Biden can't put his sentence together. | |
| KJP doesn't know what day it is. | |
| Kamala is too busy laughing to have conversations with anybody. | |
| Well, unless you're talking about ovaries. | |
| I mean, beyond that, I mean, really, who are you talking to? | |
| Clay? | |
| Saints? | |
| Okay, so now you've got to think of, okay, so Trump, who over at Fake News CNN? | |
| Now, I don't know everybody over there. | |
| Remember the town hall? | |
| There's a woman, a new person, Collins. | |
| She hosts a show on Fake News CNN. | |
| Nobody really watches it. | |
| But anyway, she did that town hall with Donald Trump, and it actually rated decently for them, good for them, the one night. | |
| And she felt like she was the candidate. | |
| Fact-check, fact-check, fact-check. | |
| I'm sorry, the fact-checking needs to happen by the other candidate. | |
| And the idea, if they're going to shut the mics off, okay, then the person that is moderating the debate, that person needs to, in my view, be the person that asked the question and then shut their microphone off. | |
| And by the way, no putting stuff on the screen. | |
| If somebody wants to challenge something that one of the candidates said, that's up to the other candidate to challenge them. | |
| And then the American people will decide and they can read, oh, fact-check this and fact-check. | |
| Nobody ever fact-checks the fact-checkers because the fact-checkers usually are wrong. | |
| I can't tell you how many times a Washington Post fact-checker screws things up, but they, of course, don't want to fact-check themselves and give themselves Pinocchios, although they should. | |
| But, you know, Trump actually was very quick and said, let's get ready to rumble. | |
| He said, you know, he replied, opening his, you know, Crooked Joe Biden is the worst debater I've ever faced. | |
| He can't put two sentences together. | |
| He agreed to the two proposed debate in June and September. | |
| And by the way, he wants more debates, but I'll read it in full. | |
| He said that Crooked Joe is the worst president in the history of the U.S. | |
| It's time for a debate so he can explain to the American people his highly destructive open border policy, new and ridiculous EV mandates, allowance for crushing inflation, high taxes, his really weak foreign policy, and allowing the world to catch on fire. | |
| I'm ready, willing, and debate Crooked Joe at the two proposed times in June and September. | |
| And I would strongly recommend more than two debates. | |
| And for excitement purposes, a very large venue, although Biden is supposedly afraid of crowds, that's only because he doesn't get them. | |
| Just tell me when. | |
| I'll be there. | |
| Let's get ready to rumble. | |
| All right. | |
| And then he accepted the Fox News debate. | |
| What? | |
| Oh, Joe Biden only wants it on his terms. | |
| Only four. | |
| Oh, Joe says only four media outlets that meet his criteria. | |
| And one of them is the lowest-rated cable channel. | |
| I hate to tell you, fake news, CNN, and the ratings on ABC and CBS, they suck too. | |
| And frankly, you know, I can't tell you how many nights, yeah, Fox News channel beats all of them. | |
| Pretty unbelievable. | |
| You know, Trump did tell Hugh Hewitt earlier today that he thinks Biden, that he thinks the Democrats could still dump Biden, but this kind of locks him in, doesn't it? | |
| If he's locked into a debate in June and September and their party convention is in August in Chicago, although they're so afraid of the own base of their party, they're talking about part of that being virtual. | |
| Can't make that up either. | |
| But think back. | |
| Now, why is it? | |
| Now, you've got to ask yourself why. | |
| Why is Joe Biden calling for debates? | |
| Because Joe Biden is behind. | |
| Joe Biden, they've been saying, oh, they don't believe the polls. | |
| They don't believe the polls. | |
| Oh, they believe the polls. | |
| And this is a bold move. | |
| Also, they want debates early. | |
| Now, I like the idea that you shouldn't have a debate before a single vote is cast. | |
| Even with the Fox News debate, that would give you plenty of time so most votes won't be cast. | |
| But, you know, look at the CNN, New York Times, CNN, I'm sorry, the New York Times poll. | |
| You know, Donald Trump, who lost in 2016 and 2020 in Nevada, he's up by 12. | |
| You know, look at the poll in Arizona. | |
| He's up by seven. | |
| He's up in Michigan by seven. | |
| He's up in Georgia by 10. | |
| He's up, what, it's a dead heat, I'm sorry, in Wisconsin, and Trump is up by three in Pennsylvania. | |
| And then you add to that, a state like Minnesota is now clearly becoming in play. | |
| And I don't know the fact that Trump has already evaporated over 11 points in the most recent poll in New Jersey and is close to the margin of error. | |
| You got to wonder if, Jesus, is New Jersey in play? | |
| You have a poll in Minnesota. | |
| You have a poll in Virginia showing that it's a dead heat between the two of them. | |
| Now, I'm going to tell you what this is also in response to. | |
| I know James Carville. | |
| I've known James Carville for years. | |
| I actually mentioned this this morning, responding in real time to the breaking news on Fox and Friends. | |
| And the amazing part is that I've known James Carville for years. | |
| I've debated James Carville a number of times. | |
| I've actually, in real life, you talk to this guy behind the scenes. | |
| He's funny. | |
| He's witty. | |
| He's sharp. | |
| He's a cool guy to hang out with. | |
| I think you'd like meeting him. | |
| I know that's hard to believe. | |
| He proves definitely that there's life on other planets. | |
| But, you know, James Carville is no, he's a smart guy. | |
| And I say that as somebody, you know, I have a respect. | |
| I don't agree with a thing he says. | |
| He's out of his mind. | |
| But did you see how angry he was this week? | |
| He was apoplectic over nothing we're throwing at Trump is working. | |
| I don't know if we still have that tape. | |
| I'll pull it out. | |
| Nothing we have is working. | |
| And they've thrown everything at Trump. | |
| And I'm telling you right now, even with this ridiculous sham trial in New York, I'm just assuming the worst. | |
| I'm assuming a guilty verdict. | |
| And some people say, Hannity, why are you a defeatist? | |
| I'm just a realist. | |
| I don't believe in being Pollyannish. | |
| And I just don't think Donald Trump can get and ever would get a fair trial in New York. | |
| By the way, and I've been proven correct, a DA that ran on a platform to get Trump, the Trump organization, and get one man, just like the civil case that took place, the Attorney General making the same campaign promise. | |
| A judge in that case valuating Mar-a-Lago at $18 million. | |
| It's a billion-dollar property. | |
| You know, go look on Zillow and see how much an empty lot would cost in Palm Beach on the ocean. | |
| It's like $150, $200 million. | |
| The $150 million one happens to be on a busy corner with, let's see, a road between the beach and the ocean and the house lot, the dirt, actually trees. | |
| I've seen the lot. | |
| It's pretty unbelievable, but that's $200 million. | |
| That's $150 million. | |
| But Mar-a-Lago, 22 acres, not one and a half or two acres. | |
| Yeah, that's only worth, let's see, with pristine property, historic property, pristine condition, two clubs, intercoastal and the ocean. | |
| And, oh, that's only historical property. | |
| That's only worth $18 million. | |
| And the judge got away with it. | |
| The Democrats know Biden is weak. | |
| Did you see this man walking off the stage last night? | |
| Linda, did you see we played it? | |
| It is so scary. | |
| But these brutal swing state numbers that they say they're not paying attention to and had no answer to when Peter Doocy asked about it. | |
| We don't believe the polls. | |
| But these were the same people at this time four years ago that were bragging about the polls that showed that they believe that they can win. | |
| But Biden won't participate in the nonpartisan commission fall debates. | |
| He wants everything on his terms. | |
| That's not how it works, which, by the way, makes me a little suspicious in all of this, that Biden is a gutless, spineless coward. | |
| Just kind of the way he stabbed Israel in the back and emboldened every radical terrorist organization and terror state and hostile regime in the world by surrendering in the war on terror. | |
| And it might just be his way of acting tough and trying to bail out, knowing that it's not all going to be on his terms. | |
| No, there are terms to be negotiated. | |
| But Trump's accepted. | |
| Are you going to show up, Joe? | |
| Or you don't want a crowd? | |
| Oh, you're afraid of a crowd? | |
| Unbelievable times we live in. | |
| Anyway, 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hamm. | |
| And I'm Carol Markowitz. | |
| We've been in political media for a long time. | |
| Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane. | |
| That's why we started Normally, a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity. | |
| We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor. | |
| We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously. | |
| So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass. | |
| You're our kind of people. | |
| Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday. | |
| On the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you listen. | |

| I showed last night on Hannity. | |
| I mean, Biden was just a mess. | |
| They carried it on the White House website, I guess. | |
| They have some website that carries his events live. | |
| He finished his speech and he didn't know what it was. | |
| And then he turns to the right and he waves to like the background and then he waves to like the side where nobody is. | |
| And then he's like looking like, oh, boy, stumbling and really old and barely able to walk, which is why they now surround him when he either is getting on Air Force One. | |
| I'm sorry, Marine One or coming off a Marine One. | |
| They don't want him looking so frail and fragile and old, which he is. | |
| By the way, if these debates happen, can you imagine? | |
| Are we going to get jacked up, Joe? | |
| Or are we going to get usual Joe? | |
| How much caffeine can you possibly give a guy? | |
| Or Red Bull, can he possibly drink? | |
| Or maybe something else that they gave him before the State of the Union? | |
| Because that's not the usual everyday Joe Biden. | |
| Whatever he might have had before that State of the Union, and maybe it's just caffeine pills. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Maybe it's just Red Bull. | |
| Maybe it's just an energy drink of some kind. | |
| Maybe it's whatever energy drink. | |
| I don't know. | |
| But that's not the person we see every day. | |
| Also seemed very angry. | |
| But notice they haven't, you haven't seen Joe like that ever since the State of the Union. | |
| Isn't that odd? | |
| Or is it? | |
| Maybe what he was doing, maybe could be a little bit physically dangerous to have all that caffeine or other in his system. | |
| I don't know. | |
| I'm not a doctor. | |
| I would never play one on the radio. | |
| So last night he didn't know what the hell he was doing. | |
| Now today, Biden just mistaken another brutal spill, catching his foot on a back step as he took the stage at the National Peace Officers Memorial Service at the Capitol. | |
| Remember, he could no longer use the big boy stairs on Air Force One. | |
| He has to use the little boy stairs on Air Force One, and he nearly fell again last week. | |
| Anyway, he managed to reach the microphone without further incident. | |
| Thank goodness. | |
| Before paying his respects to law enforcement officers who have given their lives in the line of duty. | |
| You know, you would think if he really cared about law enforcement officers, maybe, just maybe when videotapes come out of police officers getting the crap beat out of them on the streets of New York where there's no bail laws and, you know, defund, dismantle, reimagine the police policies are in place. | |
| Well, maybe he would speak out and say, refund the police, but not Joe. | |
| Yeah, but you know what? | |
| Here's the problem. | |
| Buscemi gets punched in the face. | |
| I've seen more articles about Steve Buscemi. | |
| By the way, he's the actor. | |
| Right. | |
| He's the actor, former NYFD firefighter between 80 and 84. | |
| Came back, you know, stood by everybody during the 2001, you know, when the Twin Towers fell. | |
| He was there with his fellow brothers, his firefighters, you know, helping dig through the rubble and looking for survivors. | |
| You know, he's a New Yorker. | |
| He's a good dude. | |
| But he's walking down the street. | |
| He gets punched in the face, you know, because he was just like breathing and somebody didn't like it. | |
| So they punch him in the face. | |
| I don't know who he is. | |
| And everybody's talking about it. | |
| Who punched Steve Buscemi? | |
| We're looking at the CCC. | |
| What about the cops? | |
| Thank you. | |
| What about the cops? | |
| What about the cops? | |
| We have a plenty of video. | |
| What about all the cops? | |
| Yeah, what about the mom who got her face bashed in, and they let that judge let that guy out? | |
| She has permanent jaw damage. | |
| Nobody cares. | |
| Old lady going up the church stairs. | |
| She knocked out her ass and fell backwards down the street. | |
| She could have died. | |
| It's unreal. | |
| But the problem is there's no accountability. | |
| We don't lock anybody up. | |
| Nobody takes anybody in. | |
| You raise your hands to a protester or to an illegal immigrant that's attacking you. | |
| It's considered wrong. | |
| Yeah, they take your house, by the way, and steal it and squat it. | |
| And, you know, you're going to get arrested if you're the owner. | |
| One other thing that we're watching here. | |
| Hunter, you know, for all of you Democrats that love lawfare, Hunter Biden, zero experience, Hunter, you know, the guy that made millions and millions of dollars with no experience at a time. | |
| He's admitted to being addicted to crack cocaine. | |
| That guy, well, a Delaware judge denied his request or his lawyer's request to delay the federal gun case, setting the stage for trial next month. | |
| The judge in that case denied the request to push the trial to September, which actually may be a favorite of Biden. | |
| And the defense argued they needed more time to line up witnesses and go through evidence handed over by prosecutors. | |
| And the judge said everyone can get what needs to be done done. | |
| And by the trial start date of June the 3rd, he's facing charges related to the form he filled out, you know, as it relates to the gun charge, which, by the way, other judges have put people away for five years for the same exact offense. | |
| But anyway, so the judge refuses to dismiss that. | |
| Now, let me go back to the issue of debate, the Biden announcement on debates and Trump accepting, you know, he only gave four outlets: CBS, ABC, Fake News, CNN, and Telemundo. | |
| Okay, I don't know much about Telemundo in terms of its political bent. | |
| Is our friend Jorge Ramos, I thought he was on Univision. | |
| Am I wrong? | |
| I'm not sure. | |
| Is he on Telemundo? | |
| Okay. | |
| And I actually, by a personal level, I like Jorge Ramos, but I mean, he's hardcore, you know, on the issue of immigration. | |
| I'm like, you know, this is insane. | |
| Joe Biden's 10 million plus illegal, unvetted immigrants from China, tens and tens of thousands from China, Russia, Syria, Iran, Yemen, Egypt, Afghanistan. | |
| Wow. | |
| It's only a matter of if, not when. | |
| Oh, fake news, CNN. | |
| They just named the moderators. | |
| Oh, okay. | |
| Fake Jake Tapper. | |
| You've got to be kidding me. | |
| And Dana Bash. | |
| Oh, okay. | |
| A guy that hates Donald Trump. | |
| And we'll pull the tape on Hannity tonight and play it for you. | |
| Dana Bash, I guess, I don't remember. | |
| But Dana was nice to you. | |
| You like Dana. | |
| She actually, where did I see her that she was nice to me? | |
| Maybe it was at one of the Republican primary debates. | |
| I don't know. | |
| I saw her once. | |
| Somewhere. | |
| And she came over to me. | |
| Couldn't have been nicer. | |
| Could not have been nicer, which I don't ever expect from anybody in the media mob. | |
| I'm like, she's making her way over to me. | |
| I'm like, oh, boy, here we go. | |
| What's coming up next? | |
| So he only allows, you know, he thinks this is all going to be on his terms. | |
| And Donald Trump also accepted a debate. | |
| He accepted both of them. | |
| But the terms have to be negotiated. | |
| They don't get to announce. | |
| It sounds to me like fake news, CNN. | |
| I wonder if they were tipped off by the Biden announcement. | |
| Awfully, they moved awfully quick. | |
| I checked in with my sources at the Trump campaign. | |
| They had the proposal by 10 a.m. | |
| Wow, that's pretty interesting. | |
| Fake Jake, you're going to let fake Jake tapper? | |
| Seriously? | |
| You can't pick a bigger Trump hater than fake Jake. | |
| Anyway, Biden agrees to this debate. | |
| Now, the Washington Post broke the story, and it was just before my segment on Fox and Friends, as I mentioned this morning. | |
| Okay, so CNN and ABC. | |
| All right, we're going to what? | |
| Jim Acosta. | |
| They didn't pick him. | |
| George Stephanopoulos. | |
| George Stephanopoulos just gave a big lecture about how great the deep state is and how democracy is in peril. | |
| You're going to pick him from the Clinton war room? | |
| Sorry. | |
| He doesn't qualify. | |
| And I don't know. | |
| I can't think of anyone on any of these networks that would qualify. | |
| He proposed the moderator should be selected by the broadcast host from its regular personnel. | |
| This sounds like they had conversations ahead of time. | |
| I'm just guessing. | |
| But with firm limits for answers, equal speaking time. | |
| I'm for that. | |
| You know what? | |
| They're going to cut the mics off of everybody. | |
| You know, alternative turns to speak, microphones that are active only during the candidate's turn. | |
| All right. | |
| If I argue one mistake Trump made in 2020 in the first debate, he was too aggressive. | |
| Let Joe talk more. | |
| The more he talks, you know, and let him have two minutes to answer every question. | |
| I'd let him talk. | |
| No prompter. | |
| No teleprompter. | |
| No notes, Joe. | |
| How much do you want to bet that probably deepened the proposal? | |
| That's where they are. | |
| But anyway, it's no audience. | |
| CNN would have agreed to that immediately, but I'm sure there was no early discussion with CNN about this. | |
| Now, ABC didn't release their qualification requirements. | |
| CNN says you have to have 15% in approved public surveys and on enough state ballots to win a majority of Electoral College votes. | |
| The Biden proposal and letter to the commission, by the way, called for direct negotiations between the Trump and Biden campaigns over the rules, moderators, network hosts for the one-on-one encounters. | |
| Sorry, fake Jake doesn't qualify. | |
| Biden proposed a separate vice presidential debate in July after the Republican nominating convention and before the Democratic nominating convention. | |
| Well, if Trump's going to agree to CNN and ABC, then Martha McCallum and Brett Baer get a debate on Fox News, which Donald Trump has already accepted. | |
| And then Biden's people said this isn't fair. | |
| And Donald Trump is playing games with the debates. | |
| Oh, you mean that he proposed a third debate and he didn't totally agree to your only terms? | |
| That's how insane. | |
| Maybe they don't really want to debate. | |
| Maybe that's the whole point. | |
| Anyway, the Biden campaign chair, General Mally Dillon, cited the Commission's proposed schedule and past struggles to keep candidates from violating debate rules. | |
| The Commission's model of building huge spectacles, large audience at great expense, isn't necessary. | |
| How much do you want to bet they consulted with Gavin Newsom or conducive to good debates? | |
| The debate should be conducted for the benefit of the American voters watching on television at home, not as entertainment for in-person audiences with raucous and disruptive partisan donors who consume valuable debate time with noisy spectacles of approval and jeering. | |
| They're afraid. | |
| They're afraid. | |
| He's never seen a big crowd. | |
| Can you imagine? | |
| Is Joe Biden ever going to get a crowd like Trump got in New Jersey? | |
| No, that's not happening. | |
| Just isn't. | |
| By the way, Stormy Daniels now intending to leave the country. | |
| Her husband said that if Donald Trump is not convicted, I don't think it gets better for Stormy. | |
| I think if it's not guilty, we got to decide what to do. | |
| Good chances we'll probably vacate this country. | |
| Vacate the country. | |
| Anyway, the trial is a no-win scenario for Stormy. | |
| Michael X-Con Cohn admitting to cashing in on Trump with a line of Trump goes to prison merchandise. | |
| Oh, that's pretty nice. | |
| Apparently, after, according to the New York Post, turning against Trump has paid off handsomely, earned about $3.4 million, writing two books, one disloyal, the true story of the former personal attorney to President Donald J. Trump and Revenge, how Donald Trump weaponized the U.S. Department of Justice against his critics. | |
| And Cohn was quizzed about a slew of merchandise. | |
| Convict 45, a pin that sold for 17 bucks. | |
| Send him to the big house, not the White House, coffee cup and shirt depicting Trump in an orange jumpsuit behind bars. | |
| And then he goes on TikTok asking to vent, he says, and asking for gifts. | |
| And Biden's donor judge, Mershon, looked visibly annoyed when Trump's GOP allies showed up yesterday. | |
| Pretty unbelievable. | |
| I mean, you know what? | |
| The thing is clear is Donald Trump takes up pretty much any space that may exist in Michael Cohn's brain. | |
| But revenge was front and center. | |
| That's all this is. | |
| And he admits he wants Trump to go to jail. | |
| And then he comes off as so on lacking in credibility. | |
| It's pretty unbelievable watching this whole thing. | |
| You know, let me play Michael on TikTok. | |
| This is Michael Cohn on TikTok. | |
| Listen to this. | |
| A lot of journalists have been calling me over the course of the last two weeks, asking me, do I think that Donald Trump is insane? | |
| Has the guy gone back crazy and absolutely lost his mind? | |
| Now, look, I'm not a clinical psychiatrist. | |
| I'm not a therapist. | |
| I'm just a guy that worked for this lunatic for somewhere in the neighborhood of 11, 12 years. | |
| And here's what I really believe. | |
| I believe that Donald Trump has actually lost his. | |
| He's lost his marbles. | |
| Okay. | |
| How do you then convict a corporation? | |
| Who's going to be held accountable for it? | |
| And the only person who should be held accountable is this guy right here. | |
| Not me, Donald, if you can't see it. | |
| This guy needs to be held accountable. | |
| And then he talks about, you know, his fixation on all things Trump and a crying little, he called Trump's attorney a crying little bleep. | |
| Even referred to Trump as a dictator D-bag wearing and selling t-shirts in the merch store, Trump behind bars, you know, and then you got all these clips that show his hatred of Donald Trump. | |
| It's just, it's bizarre. | |
| You know, and then you have this exchange about the Trump Moscow project that didn't exist and asked about lying to the special counsel. | |
| I gave information that was not accurate. | |
| Is not accurate information a lie? | |
| Well, is it a lie? | |
| It was not accurate. | |
| Yes, Cohn said. | |
| Was it a lie? | |
| I don't know if it would be, if I'd characterize it as a lie, it was inaccurate. | |
| And it goes back and forth, back and forth. | |
| Okay, you want to call it a lie? | |
| I'll call it a lie. | |
| I wonder how that's going over with the liberal New York jury. | |
| All right, we're going to talk about why is Biden even proposing a debate, if he even really means it. | |
| We'll look at these poll numbers with Matt Towery, all things Bill O'Reilly Simple Man coming up as well. | |
