♪ ♪ ♪ >> Stephen: ONE THING WE DO
KNOW IS THAT TRUMP IS DEFINITELY GOING TO LOSE BLACK VOTERS
TONIGHT.
AND HERE WITH HIS THOUGHTS ON WHY THAT IS, HOST OF THE
BREAKFAST CLUB," CHARLAMAGNE THE GOD.
THANKS FOR BEING HERE, CHARLAMAGNE.
>> STEPHEN, THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME, MY BROTHER.
WHAT'S.
>> Stephen: NOT MUCH.
ELECTION.
YOU'RE NO STRANGER TO ELECTION NIGHT SPECIALS.
IN 2016, YOU WERE ON THIS SHOW WHEN TRUMP WON, AND YOU SAID
THIS: >> CONGRATULATIONS AMERICA, YOU
(BLEEP) THIS ONE UP.
WHERE'S THE LIE, THOUGH?
SOMEBODY WAS RIGHT.
THAT WAS ME.
>> Stephen: AND THAT IS TRUE.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.
THERE ARE NO COMMERCIAL BREAKS HERE, SO, WHILE I GO CHECK
OUT WHAT NEXT IS COMING DOWN THE PIKE FOR THE ELECTION,
CHARLAMAGNE, WHY DON'T YOU TAKE A MINUTE TO TALK ABOUT WHAT THAT
( BLEEP ) UP FROM FOUR YEARS AGO MEANT FOR ALL OF US.
AND I'LL BE BACK IN JUST A MINUTE.
IT'S YOURS, BUDDY.
>> ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU, STEPHEN.
GOTTA MAKE SURE HE'S REALLY GONE, THOUGH.
ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND OUT-- "LORD OF THE RINGS" SUCKS!
HE'S REALLY GONE.
HELLO, AMERICA.
DID YOU NOT HEAR ME THE FIRST TIME.
LET ME REMIND YOU HOW TRUMP SOLD HIMSELF TO BLACK VOTERS IN
2016-- PAY ATTENTION, PLEASE.
>> WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?
TO THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY, I SAY, "WHAT THE HELL
DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?" VOTE FOR ME.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?
>> WELL, TURNS OUT A LOT, OKAY.
IN FACT, I MADE A LIST.
♪ ♪ ♪ >> CHARLAMAGNE THE GOD'S LIST OF
THINGS WE HAD TO LOSE.
>> NUMBER ONE, VOTING RIGHTS.
I'M TALKING VOTER I.D. LAWS, PURGING VOTER ROLLS, LONG LINES
AND PREDOMINANTLY BLACK DISTRICTS IN GEORGIA SOME VOTERS
EXPERIENCED WAIT TIMES UP TO FIVE HOURS.
FOR ONE WHITE LADY THEY PUT A BALLOT BOX ON THE INTERNATIONAL
SPACE STATION.
AT THIS POINT YOU COULD GO BACK TO SCHOOL, GET A DEGREE IN
ASTROPHYSICS, GO TO ASTRONAUT TRAINING AND STILL VOTE FASTER
THAN A BROTHER IN MACON COUNTY.
THAT'S ( BLEEP ).
NUMBER TWO, HEALTH CARE.
WE KNOW SINCE TAKING OFFICE TRUMP HAS BEEN DOING EVERYTHING
HE TO UNDERMINE THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACTS.
OF COURSE HE DISLIKESES OBAMACARE-- IT'S A COMBINATION
OF THE TWO THINGS HE HATES THE MOST, OBAMA AND CARING.
NUMBER THREE, BOZEMAN.
IT HAPPENED ON HIS WATCH.
IF HE CAN TAKE CREDIT FOR OBAMA'S ECONOMY, A BLACK MAN'S
ECONOMY HE CAN TAKE THE BLAME FOR THE DEATH OF THE BLACK
PANTHER AND I'M HOLDING HIM PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
LOSS OF ARETHA FRANKLIN, KOBE BRYANT, AND KANYE WEST.
I MEAN, KANYE DIDN'T DIE, BUT HE'S CERTAINLY LOST.
SPEAKING OF DYING, ANOTHER THING WE'VE LOST ARE ( BLEEP ) LIVES.
REMEMBER, THERE'S STILL A PANDEMIC GOING ON.
FUN FACT: BLACK PEOPLE ARE DIZZ PROPORTIONATELY AFFECTED BY
CORONAVIRUS.
THIS IS SO TYPICAL.
A WISE MAN ONCE SAID, WHEN AMERICA GETS A COLD, BLACK
PEOPLE GET CORONAVIRUS, THEN AMERICA TAKES AWAY THEIR HEALTH
INSURANCE.
YOU KNOW WHO SAID THAT?
ME ( BLEEP ).
OKAY, IT WAS ME.
ALL RIGHT, WHAT A BLACK PERSON CAN'T QUOTE THEMSELVES.
TELL ME WHAT ELSE I AM NOT ALLOWED TO DO YOU RACIST.
NUMBER 10: MOVIES.
UNDER TRUMP, THE ACADEMY NOMINATED BLACK KLANSMAN AND
BLACK PANTHER BUT THEY GAVE THE OSCAR TO "GREEN BOOK"
DO YOU KNOW HOW BLACK PEOPLE FELT ABOUT "GREEN BOOK?"
ME, NEITHER.
WE DIDN'T WATCH.
THAT'S NO SURPRISE.
AMERICA HAS ALWAYS IGNORED BLACK IN FAVOR OF GREEN.
FINALLY, NUMBER 11, MY TIME.
SEE, THAT'S IMPORTANT MOVEMENTS LIKE BLACK LIVES MATTER, ALL
THAT MARCHING TAKES TIME.
ONCE WE ARE FINISHING CONVINCED WHITE AMERICA WE ARE, INDEED,
HUMAN BEINGS IT WOULD BE NICE TO DO THINGS HUMAN BEINGS ENJOY
LIKE JOG, THROWING A BARBECUE, OR GOING BIRD WATCHING WITHOUT
SOME NUT-ASS KAREN CALLING THE COPS.
IT'S NOT JUST WHAT WE'VE LOST.
IT'S WHAT WE STAND TO LOSE IF TRUMP HAS ANOTHER FOUR YEARS.
>> CHARLAMAGNE THE GOD'S LIST OF THINGS WE STILL HAVE TO LOSE.
>> NUMBER ONE, ALL THE ( BLEEP ) THAT I JUST SAID, BECAUSE AS BAD
AS IT IS, IT CAN ALWAYS GET WORSE.
TRUMP APPOINTED THREE SUPREME COURT JUSTICES.
HE'S LIKE THANOSE.
AND REPUBLICANS JUST GOT THE LAST AFFINITY STONE THEY NEED TO
TAKE AWAY EVERYTHING WE FOUGHT FOR.
WE'RE ONE SNAP AWAY FROM "GREEN BOOK TWO" TOO GREEN, TOO BOOK.
NUMBER TWO, SPORTS.
YOU THINK TRUMP'S GOING TO AT KAEPERNICK.
HE'S COMING FOR ALL THE KNERLS IN ALL THE LEAGUES.
IN FOUR YEARS THE N.B.A. IS GOING TO BE A GAME OF HORSE
BETWEEN J.J. REDDICK, AND LUCA DON ITCH.
AND NUMBER THREE, THIS ONE ISN'T SOMETHING BLACK PEOPLE HAVE TO
LOSE.
IT'S SOMETHING WE ALL HAVE TO LOSE-- OUR SOUL.
BLACK PEOPLE HAVE LONG BEEN THE SOUL OF THIS COUNTRY.
BECAUSE WE HAVE TO BELIEVE IN THE PROMISE OF EQUALITY AND
JUSTICE THAT AMERICA PROVIDES.
JUST LIKE A BELIEF IN A HIGHER POWER FOR BLACK PEOPLE,
AMERICA'S PROMISE IS SOMETHING THAT IS NOT VISIBLE BUT WE HAVE
FAITH IN THAT PROMISE.
AND THAT FAITH IS A MOLD FOR ALL AMERICANS.
SO WE WILL CONTINUE TO SHOUT AND DEMAND TO BE TREATED EQUALLY IN
THIS COUNTRY.
BUT WE CAN'T DO IT FOREVER.
AND IF AMERICA LOSES ITS SOUL, LORD HAVE MERCY, IT'S GAME OVER.
THE LAND WILL STILL EXIST, BUT THE NOBLE HUMAN EXPERIMENT,
THAT'S A WRAP.
I'M SURE THAT WOUND WILL BE SOOTHED AND HEALED BY THE
RELEASE OF "GREEN BOOK THREE: ELECTRIC BOOINGALY"
TRUST ME, IT CAN AND SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.
>> Stephen: I'M BACK.
CHARLAMAGNE I DIDN'T CATCH ALL OF YOUR PIECE, BUT DID YOU SAY
THERE'S A NEW "GREEN BOOK?" I LOVE THAT MOVIE.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME, STEPHEN.
ALWAYS A PLEASURE.
>> Stephen: CHARLAMAGNE THE GOD, EVERYBODY.
