One of the protesters at Trump's rally wanted to talk a little bit about
the Biden White House and here's what they had to say.
[MUSIC]
>> This is America you guys, this is America and
we can't have somebody in the office that is,
doesn't even know really that he is there possibly.
But also that the oligarch excuse me in his office or
writing all his material and and he's just really.
[INAUDIBLE] just speaking it out and
I don't think he really understands what's happening.
Again similar to what we were talking about before,
there's sort of like a frustrating kind of tenuous connection to reality.
But it's cloaked in absolute insanity,
the idea that he has no idea that he's even in the White House.
Look if that makes you feel better because you've been triggered by your loss in 2020
or whatever, then that's fine.
The fact that you got beat by a guy who has no idea what's going on seems even
more embarrassing but sure go off.
But the idea that oligarchs behind the scenes are largely
determining what political leaders do is in some ways true.
The issue is that she doesn't then connect that to,
well what about when the Republicans are in charge.
Then they're just awesome individualists, you literally are protesting you're
gathering outside the home of a multi billionaire.
He is an American oligarch and you want him back in power,
how do you not make these connections?
>> Yeah, it's because they never got that information John, they listen to right
wing media and right wing media is filled to the rim with absolute liars.
So you could tell proofs in the pudding, right,
we tell you Mitch McConnell has raised nearly a billion dollars.
Nancy Pelosi has raised nearly a billion dollars,
they're raising them from oligarchs, that is completely true.
Both the corporate Democrats and the corporate Republicans are 100% corrupt.
And and by the way, who else raised tons of money from corporations and
oligarchs, Donald J Trump.
So you know, who doesn't Bernie Sanders, so
progressives actually do not take money from corporate PACs.
Donald Trump does, every Republican, sorry, nearly every Republican does,
there are some now populist like Matt Gates who don't, okay?
See we're honest, we're fair and by the way,
that video of that particular woman, it really wasn't that wrong.
I mean, does Joe Biden have any power, no, not really,
I don't think he can veto his own donors at all.
I think his donors can veto him, so then is he really president,
the donors have not, look.
I believe Joe Biden's president the minute he passes a bill that the donors don't
want, it's never happened, it's never gonna happen, okay?
And it's not about Joe Biden, that was also true of Trump,
that was also true of Clinton and Obama, my God, I said Obama.
No, every media person attacked me, I said Pelosi, every media person attacked me.
It's partly this mainstream media has driven the right wing crazy because
our the oligarchs in charge of course they are, right?
And so she just the problem with the right wing media is that they pretend
that the most corrupt people in the country like Mitch McConnell.
Which actually by the way now they're pretending that less to be fair, right?
And Donald Trump somehow when they take corporate PAC their angels
you turn to cable news.
They say what Pelosi takes corporate PAC money, she's an angel,
they're both obviously lying.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah and the most frustrating part about it is this narrative that they
build around like strategy, right?
Like and that's the most infuriating lie because one of the ways that they trick
people like cuz random voters who are centrists.
They say like we really care about health care, we really want all these things.
But you see Nancy Pelosi is such a smart galaxy brain that she has to take that
corporate PAC money you see because it's such a good strategy.
And then they put out these things like the rental assistance program where was
aggressively means tested and end up being very slow.
And with these compromised policies that have these weird random like flaws that
are built into them as sort of compromises actually weaken the policy.
Make them less popular and
lead to even more people feeling alienated and left out by the system.
>> Yeah, I want to say one more thing actually,
I want to give it to one of our members.
Happily Vax wrote it well if Trump is still president,
he cannot run again in 2024.
[LAUGH] That's actually of course constitutionally true but
they treat the constitution as a punchline, right?
They don't even know what a constitution is,
if you ask them is the US Constitution the same thing as the Bible?
I bet you like half of republicans say yes, if you ask them,
is the constitution in the Bible or the Bible in the constitution.
Like 85% of them will answer one or the other not realizing,
it's obviously a trick question, right?
They have no earthly idea, they haven't studied civics,
they don't know anything about our country.
All they want is power and by the way guys, let's note the deep irony of that,
they're like, can you believe the oligarchs are in power?
It should be us, wait, shouldn't it be all of us,
shouldn't it be a democracy, shouldn't we rule together?
Isn't that the whole point of America and
right now the right wing's answer is a resounding no, no.
And again, to be fair, the establishment's answer is also no,
it should only be the oligarchs who completely control policy making right now
