>> Enough of this nonsense.
I mean, paying off loans for people that don't want to.
They wanna have some bizarre basket weaving, a degree and they want all of us
people watching across this country, hardworking men and women to subsidize
their laziness and their inability to even try to contribute to society.
>> Well, basket weaving sounds like a lot of fun.
The preliminary research I've done into the matter indicates that there are no
four-year college degrees offered to individuals who are looking to home,
their expertise on basket weaving, just putting that out there.
But what you just watched was yet another example of a right winger, having a mask
off moment to let the American people know exactly what she thinks about them.
And of course, this is in response to Joe Biden,
agreeing to forgive a modest portion of student loan debt for
student borrowers who make less than $125,000 a year.
Now, she's not the only one who uses these talking points where they
minimize the importance of getting a college degree.
There is endless data showing that individuals who have gone to college,
who have some college degree tend to earn more.
I mean, she, herself went to college and
she went at a time when it was much more affordable.
But anytime, there is any effort to help ordinary people economically.
That's when right wingers and corporate democrats, by the way, lose their minds.
And what I love about this and I think this was an unintended silver lining for
Democrats, I don't think they intended this to happen.
But through forgive some student loan debt, what the Democrats did
is they forced Republicans to get out of their little culture war bubble and
tell the truth about what they think about ordinary people, about working people,
about people who wanna get a higher education and better their lives.
On one hand, they say pick yourself up by the bootstraps.
On the other hand, they'll slap you down, your hand reaches the bootstrap.
Okay, that's who Republicans are and Guilfoyle joined a string of Republicans
who have come under fire in recent days for their snide responses to Biden's plan.
The group includes Ted Cruz who called graduates who will receive their loans
slacker baristas, Lauren Bober who claimed the program funds Karen's
daughter's degrees in dance theory and Marco Rubio who said how easy it was for
him to pay off his own loans just by writing a book.
Everybody, just write a book.
Anyone can do that, right?
Now I also wanna give you another example,
because Sean Hannity on his radio show was salty
about the fact that this might actually help out some of his own employees.
Let's listen.
>> The people that likely will benefit the most are middle class.
Think about it, you get out of college, you're not making a lot of money.
We have a lot of young people that work on my TV show and I'm making 125 grand and
they're now eligible to get in some cases up to 20,000 and
out of the case is 10,000 and this is new green deal radical socialism.
>> Well, thanks for making the green deal and
socialism sound pretty freaking awesome, but think about that junk.
He's mad that the people who work for
him might get a little bit of financial relief.
He thinks that's crazy.
>> Yeah, so there's two elements to this story.
The Hannity part though is kind of is a third one all by itself.
I mean, I hear sometimes that Sean Hannity is a good guy,
because people have seen him tip a lot, right?
Meanwhile, look at what he said about his own employees on air.
You know how much Sean Hannity makes?
He makes $40 million a year and he's begrudging his producers for
having $10,000 in student debt relief.
10,000, he makes 40 million.
What does he do?
He doesn't he gets he gets that money just to kiss Donald Trump's ass.
He talks for an hour on TV and not like us.
He doesn't research.
He doesn't do facts just as propaganda, just those talking points.
It's the easiest job in the world and
he's begrudging his producers who actually prepare the show.
What a sick guy.
There's not a single Republican who's a generous, they're all greedy.
They all dislike other people.
They just want me, me, me, me, me which gets to the point I wanna make.
I think Anna's point is better and I'm gonna come back to that.
Okay, but let's notice their hypocrisy in this story.
So Kimberly Guilfoyle,
he scam that Trump is doing where he's funneling money to himself and
his kids that were contributions given to him by the grassroots.
What Trump refers to as the suckers and losers?
[LAUGH] You donated money to me.
Of course, I'm gonna steal it.
What do you think I was gonna use it for the cause?
So one of the ways that his family stole the money is Kimberly Guilfoyle
gave a speech on January 6 that didn't even last three minutes.
You know how much they paid her for that?
Well, three minutes.
I mean, 10,000 would be outraged, 60,000.
They paid her $60,000 for three minutes of speech, less than three minutes.
And she says, you're getting 10 or
$20,000 relief when you actually went to school work, your ass off, got a job.
You're working your ass off to payback those loans now and she gets money for
nothing.
Just robs your own supporters, but she thinks you're getting too much.
>> Yeah, I gotta jump in because the point about her three minute speech on
January 6th is obviously a devastating point $60,000 for.
That is insane, but what's equally insane is how she and
Don Jr she's with Don Jr., right?
>> Yeah, sorry.
Yeah, she and Don Jr. were raking in $50,000 each
during their little college speaking tour which was funded.
I looked into this which was funded by the tuition and
fees the students at these universities were paying so it's amazing.
Yeah, go ahead.
>> So your student loans went to going went to paying Kimberly Guilfoyle because
a bunch of Republican donors that are probably alumni to that school,
force them to give these gifts to these conmen, these criminals.
And then she has the nerve to say, that was forgiven.
I wanted the kids to pay me the thing I didn't deserve at all, okay?
Now the top criminal Donald Trump, he's declared bankruptcy six different times.
We're talking about $10,000 in student debt programs.
Let me tell you about just one of the six times.
He said, yeah, I'm not gonna pay you.
I owe all this money, I'm not gonna pay.
Okay, he's a deadbeat total utter deadbeat.
Just one of those times Trump.
Hotels and casinos resorts filed for bankruptcy again in 2004
after accruing about $1.8 billion dollars in debt.
So he's like 10,000 amateurs, $1.8 billion.
One of his six bankruptcies in total billions upon billions where
he was like yeah, I took it, I used it and I'm not gonna pay you back, why?
I'm not going to, cuz I'm a freaking criminal.
And they think that the kids are doing basket weaving and that they got too much
of a handout, because after working there ass off for four years in college and
working so hard to pay it back now while they go to their daddy criminal and
and don't notice the billions that he did not pay back.
It's absurd the minute that any republicans said it.
Everyone in mainstream media should have been talking about and
every Democrat should have been talking about the billions and billions and
billions that trump never paid back, but the Democratic Party is completely and
utterly incompetent and the media sucks.
Okay, last thing.
>> Hold on, hold on.
I gotta respond to the last thing you said, because it's half true.
But there was an example last week,
I believe it was from the Biden White House that I actually thought was great.
So when Marjorie Greene was attacking the Biden administration over its
student loan forgiveness plan, they just decided to quote,
Tweet her and they specifically mentioned the amount of money she had
taken from the paycheck protection program and that loan was forgiven.
So I like that they did that and the White House got a lot of positive feedback,
because they were playing hardball which is rare.We don't see that a lot from
the Biden administration.
And so I wanna give them some positive reinforcement, so
they do more of it, because it's powerful.
People like to see democrats fighting back especially if it's on their behalf.
Yeah, so that's a great point.
So the reason why we celebrated that when that first
came out was because it was such an exception.
The reason we celebrate Fetterman all the time is because hey, it's a Democrat
that actually does the bare minimum and fights against his opponent.
We're like yes, yes, finally, right, why?
Cuz the Democrats never do.
Anyway, but in this case, they did do a great job at it.
Keep going keep doing more of that, at least at least the Biden White House.
Now the reason I got frustrated the Democrats in the middle of this story is
because half of them are going out there going, I don't like this.
The Republicans are right.
Sharice Davids that loser in Kansas were never allowed to criticize corporate
democrats.
Tim Ryan is doing a pretty good job against JD Vance in Ohio.
I want them to be JD Vance.
It's really bad, but he comes out and he attacks us for no reason.
They love to punch themselves in the face.
Anyway, and
every Republican is out there talking smack against hardworking Americans.
Ted Cruz called them slacker baristas.
Marco Rubio said, why don't you just go write a book like I did as a senator and
pay off your loans?
Lauren Roberts said that it was programming giving money to quote,
Karen's daughter's degree in dance theory.
So if you went to college, you just studied basket weaving or dance.
But again, this goes to the best point which was what Anna started with.
They're all insulting the average guy out here and
they're insulting tens of millions of Americans.
And so all you gotta do is do the right thing, Democrats.
D do just a little bit of econ.
I would love for you to do a lot of economic populism.
But even when you do a little bit of economic populism,
the Republicans fall right into their own trap.
Please do more of that.
Please be decent and do the right thing, and
you'll be rewarded politically as well.
