Speaker 5 Donald Trump was on a rampage right before Thanksgiving. Donald Trump hates holidays because it's a time when people can reflect on things other than his chaos and madness.
Speaker 5 So that's when he always tries to draw attention to himself. Also, Donald Trump horribly mismanaged that tragic shooting in Washington, D.C.
Speaker 5 One of the things that we learned, the shooting involving two National Guardsmen, is that the shooter actually received asylum by Donald Trump in April of this past year.
Speaker 5 Donald Trump spent the time trying to be divisive, attacking former President Biden and attacking Somalis in Minnesota because Donald Trump is a despicable racist.
Speaker 5 Let me just show you what Donald Trump's been ranting and raving about all throughout the evening and into the morning.
Speaker 5 He's posting that South Africa is hereby not invited to next year's G20 because Donald Trump Trump decided to boycott the G20 in South Africa.
Speaker 5 And then President Ramifosa of South Africa said, well, if you're boycotting, then you can't attend the gavel passing ceremony for you to be the host next year because you're not attending the G20 and you've claimed that we're involved in a white genocide, which is malicious and false and just outrageous and racist.
Speaker 5
So then Donald Trump responds at the conclusion. This was Donald Trump's post yesterday.
At the conclusion of the G20, South Africa refused to hand off the G20 presidency to a senior U.S.
Speaker 5 representative from our embassy who attended the closing ceremony.
Speaker 5 Therefore, at my direction, South Africa will not be receiving an invitation to the 2026 G20, which will be hosted in the great city of Miami, Florida next year.
Speaker 5 South Africa has demonstrated to the world they are not a country worthy of membership anywhere, and we are going to stop all payments and subsidies to them effective immediately.
Speaker 5
Thank you for your attention to this matter. You are a despicable human being, Donald.
You made up that there's a white genocide taking place, which is false.
Speaker 5 You had President Ramaphosa showed up to the Oval Office several months back with white Afrikaners who are part of his government. They were telling you there's no white genocide.
Speaker 5 You were putting up these deranged QAnon conspiracy videos, and you made a fool of yourself while President Rama Fosa kept his school.
Speaker 5 President Rama Fosa and the G20 nations, I guess the G19, put on an impeccable ceremony while you were ranting and raving and whining here, deciding not to show up. And then you do this.
Speaker 5
I think that all of the G19 should basically boycott this. Just stop giving in to this pathetic little baby.
Just end it right there. That's what he wants anyway.
Speaker 5 So just let him know that none of you are going to show up to Doral Miami so he can grift once again and enrich his pocket while destroying the current world order and just making a fool of himself.
Speaker 5 I mean, also while there was that horrific shooting yesterday in Washington, D.C., you had Donald Trump making posts like this, Donald Trump remains with strong approval at 50%.
Speaker 5 The McLaughlin poll, Trump remains strong. GOP needs stronger response.
Speaker 5
And then Donald Trump was posting yesterday that he wants to call Republicans T-Publicans or Tropublicans now because it's no longer MAGA. It's T-Publicans.
And again, he's just citing fake polls.
Speaker 5 Every single credible poll has Donald Trump's approval, the lowest in modern presidential history. We all know that.
Speaker 5 This liar needs to be posting about approval ratings while there is a shooting taking place in Washington, D.C.
Speaker 5
of National Guard members, for which we now learn the shooter was actually in the Afghan army for about a decade, working hand in hand with U.S. special forces.
Yes, he arrived in the U.S.
Speaker 5 in 2021, but Trump granted him amnesty in April. And you know what? Didn't the Trump regime gut all of our counterterrorism initiatives within the FBI?
Speaker 5 Didn't the Trump regime put in a 22-year-old right out of college with no experience in the FBI, who previously was a gardener, literally no experience in national security, now leads the FBI counterterrorism division.
Speaker 5 We had all those FBI agents warning that if you put this guy in charge, there could be serious terroristic acts.
Speaker 5 But of course, the Trump regime's like, no, the FBI resources need to be focused on invading Home Depot parking lots and farms and factories and restaurants and places of work and peaceful communities so that the Trump regime can engage in chemical warfare with Greg Bavino and the Border Patrol throwing like chemical grenades at people, while actually
Speaker 5
the terrorists are not being prosecuted. The sex traffickers are not being prosecuted.
Scratch that.
Speaker 5 They're actually being aided and abetted by the PPP, the pedoprotection program that is the Trump regime. Can I just show this for you right now?
Speaker 5 Let me show you this because I want to cleanse this YouTube channel after talking about Donald Trump's horrors and what a grotesque species that he is, or as Governor Newsom calls him, a grotesque invasive species.
Speaker 5 Let's go back to a time when Thanksgiving was led by actual leaders with dignity here in the United States. The Obama Foundation posted the following.
Speaker 5 For centuries in peace and in war, through prosperity and in adversity, Americans have paused at this time of year to gather with loved ones and give thanks for life's blessings.
Speaker 5 Each Thanksgiving during his administration, President Obama reflected on the people, institutions, and organizations organizations that make our country better in countless ways, modeling thankfulness for all of us.
Speaker 5 Today, we share some of these sentiments and invite you to join us in gratitude this week and always.
Speaker 5 Play this clip right here of former President Obama as he guided through the ages of his Thanksgiving tenure. Here, play this clip.
Speaker 6 For centuries, in peace and in war, in prosperity and in adversity, Americans have paused at this time of year to gather with loved ones and give thanks for life's blessings.
Speaker 6 We'll spend some time taking stock of what we're thankful for, the God-given bounty of America and the blessings of one another.
Speaker 6 I'm thankful that my daughters get to grow up in this great country of ours. And I'm thankful for the chance to do my part as together we make tomorrow better than today.
Speaker 6 We're also grateful that this country has always been home to Americans who see these blessings not simply as gifts to enjoy, but as opportunities to give back.
Speaker 6 We give thanks for the men and women who set sail for this land nearly four centuries ago, risking everything for the chance at a better life, and the people who are already here, our Native American brothers and sisters, for their generosity during that first Thanksgiving.
Speaker 6 This is a season not only to be thankful for the incredible blessings that we have, but also to remember the neediest and generously serve those who are not as fortunate.
Speaker 6 It's easy to focus on what separates us, but as we gather with loved ones on this Thanksgiving, let's remember and be grateful for what binds us together.
Speaker 6 I'm thankful that I get to see the best of America every day.
Speaker 6 The courage of our troops and veterans, the resilience of our families, and the basic goodness of the ordinary people who call this country home. Thanks and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Speaker 5 And then let me show you this as well. This is when former President Obama was at food banks on Thanksgiving and he would hand out food.
Speaker 5 Unlike Donald Trump, who's in Mar-a-Lago right now, he left on Tuesday and he's there golfing on the taxpayer dime, throwing great Gatsby parties with half-naked women dancing around in martini glasses with the, what was the slogan at their Halloween party?
Speaker 5 A little party never killed nobody while they were ripping away health care from 30 million Americans, while they are making things unaffordable while building data centers for their oligarchs, making our electricity prices go up.
Speaker 5 pursuing agendas that are leading to the 18 to 29 year olds having no future, making sure sure housing is unaffordable for anybody.
Speaker 5 Americans are psychologically tortured, can't pay their rent, and Donald Trump is grifting off the taxpayers in Mar-a-Lago. Seriously, that's what he's doing.
Speaker 5 Let me show you when Obama would be at the food banks on Thanksgiving, giving back to the community.
Speaker 5 As I mentioned, Donald Trump was blaming the Somali community for reasons that are unclear. The shooter was Afghan
Speaker 5 and to have broad generalizations about anyone based on this other than the fact that the Trump regime wants to scapegoat communities all the time.
Speaker 5 Here's what Donald Trump said about the Somali community in Minnesota yesterday. Play this clip.
Speaker 8 An example is Minnesota, where hundreds of thousands of Somalians are ripping off our country and ripping apart that once great state.
Speaker 8 Billions of dollars are lost, and gangs of Somalians come from a country that doesn't even have a government, no laws, no water, no military, no nothing, as their representatives in our country preach to us about our Constitution and how our country is no good.
Speaker 8 We're not going to put up with these kind of assaults on law and order by people who shouldn't even be in our country.
Speaker 5 Also, one of the things that Donald Trump posted yesterday was a photo of the Lincoln Memorial. And this is what he writes.
Speaker 5 This is the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool before Secretary of the Interior Doug Bergham and I fix it. Study it hard because you won't be seeing this Biden filth and incompetence much longer.
Speaker 5 Is he saying that the Lincoln Memorial and reflecting pool is Biden filth? Is he going to tear down the Lincoln Memorial and tear down the reflecting pool and drain it?
Speaker 5 Is that what this threat is right here? What the hell are you doing right now? It's possible he's going to tear this down. I mean, how else do you interpret this as? And this is what I mean.
Speaker 5 He's a sociopath. On Thanksgiving, you're threatening to tear down the Lincoln Memorial.
Speaker 5 On the eve of Thanksgiving, you're writing about, here's another post that he made talking about Katie Rogers, the New York Times reporter, who wrote a story about Donald Trump not starting events until like 12.08 p.m.
Speaker 5 and Trump looking more fatigued and more lethargic these days, which I think is an understatement by Katie. But Donald Trump says that Katie Rogers is ugly.
Speaker 5 She goes, she's an ugly lady, both inside and out. And come on, I mean, on a day like this, as I gather with my family, my 14-month-old girl, baby girl,
Speaker 5 my nieces and my nephews and my whole extended family, I used to revere the presidency as somebody with dignity, somebody who I could tell my children and tell my family that this is the behavior you should model after.
Speaker 5 And here you are just behaving in this grotesque way, calling a female reporter ugly. What are you? Three years old, three-year-olds would have behaved this way.
Speaker 5 And this follows the other day where you yelled at a Bloomberg reporter and called her piggy and said, quiet piggy.
Speaker 5 Just think about the Obama video I showed you, and/or Donald Trump now saying quiet piggy. Here, play this clip.
Speaker 5 Just another point to talk about here as well. You know, I mentioned earlier in this week, Xi Jinping, I think on Monday, gave Donald Trump a call.
Speaker 5 As I described it, what I expected was going to happen on the call.
Speaker 5 We know is what actually happened, where Xi Jinping told Donald Trump, hey, you better shut up Japan right now because the new prime minister of Japan, takaishi is saying that japan is going to protect taiwan if china tries to take it over because the u.s has completely capitulated its role of protecting taiwan the united states didn't even let the president of taiwan land in the united states en route to south america or central america the u.s is that adversarial to taiwan right now i just want you to think about that because you remember what five years ago seven years ago all the republicans pretended to be china hawks they're like we're china hawks we're so pro-taiwan no you're a bunch of sociopaths who just create frameworks to justify the fact that all you really want is your little kim jong-un style leader because you're such pathetic men who can't even behave yourself in any normal way in civilized society so you need to have some kim jong-un style a sociopath govern your behavior it's so freaking bizarre In any event, I digress.
Speaker 5
Donald Trump is now hearing it from Japan because Trump told Japan, you need to calm down as it relates to Taiwan. Xi Jinping told me to tell you to chill.
And Japan's like, huh?
Speaker 3 The hell are you talking about?
Speaker 5
We're supposed to protect Taiwan. And Donald Trump's like, no, no, no, no, no.
I need China now because China so brutally outmaneuvered Donald Trump by boycotting the purchasing of U.S.
Speaker 5 soybeans by putting export controls on
Speaker 5
their rare earth elements. They've like brought the United States down to its knees in 10 months.
None of this was happening under former President Biden, by the way.
Speaker 5 I'll just mention these two other data points right here. You had Kevin Hassett going on the various shows this week, like Hannity on state regime media, which calls itself Fox.
Speaker 5 And he was saying how, you know, on the Sunday shows, people were saying that Walmart's only featuring generic products right now on their Thanksgiving list. How dare they talk to the American people?
Speaker 5
American people eat generic brands. Yeah, of course we can eat generic brands.
That's not the point.
Speaker 5 The point is that when Biden was in office, the Walmart Thanksgiving list included name brands and 21 items. Now they use generic brands and 14 items.
Speaker 5 The only point we're trying to make here, Kevin Hassett, is that prices are up and you are lying that saying prices are down.
Speaker 5 And one of the ways you're lying is by saying Walmart claims that Thanksgiving is 25% cheaper. So all we're pointing out to you is that they're using seven less items and generic brands.
Speaker 5 Is that really hard for you to compute?
Speaker 5 Or are you just a sociopathic liar who wants to exploit Americans because you believe everybody's just magamush brain and just listens to all of the pathetic things that you spew?
Speaker 5 Here, play this clip.
Speaker 9
Favorite moments on a Sunday show for me last week was on one of the Sunday shows. You can look it up.
I won't attack the poor fellow that was the anchor.
Speaker 9 He criticized the fact that Walmart said that the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by, I think it was about $10 for a typical Thanksgiving dinner.
Speaker 9
And then he said, oh, yeah, but they substituted generic stuff as if like having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks. It shows how out of touch these people are.
I get to say that.
Speaker 9 It's so silly. I'm just saying.
