  • all right.

  • First part of the argument is that we should agree with the obvious.

  • This is corruption.

  • I've got this thing and it golden, and I'm just not giving it up.

  • That is the signature sound of former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich, former because he was impeached.

  • Ah, 114 to 1 for talking about the Senate seat that used to belong to Barack Obama as a commodity.

  • Profanities aside, is it so different from I would like you to do us a favor, though, and everything that came after and when a lot of you then heard bloody out Blagojevich and the other powerful political figures who were either free to forgiven by Trump media screamed.

  • And so many of you echoed.

  • Trump is trying to normalize corruption.

  • No, he isn't, I argue.

  • Trump absolutely thinks corruption is already normal.

  • He's not tryingto make it into anything.

  • He believes it is that already something to be played to advantage the same way he played so many of you with this idea.

  • Do you want America to be ruled by the corrupt political class?

  • Or do you want America to be ruled again by the people?

  • Yeah, the read most of that, then Pence the Great Echo intoned the following echo.

  • The American people are sick and tired of pay to play politics in Washington, D.

  • C.

  • And Donald Trump and I are gonna bring it to a crashing halt.

  • I argue.

  • Trump has done on Lee the opposite.

  • He asked Russia to interfere in our elections, now a san just saying he was promised a pardon if he said Russia wasn't behind it.

  • I don't know that we should believe a sand, but you know who did Donald Trump remember?

  • Trump said when he was after corruption with Ukraine, and then he tried to blackmail its president.

  • Stone, convicted of lying about his efforts to mess with corrupt foreign players to help who trump.

  • His campaign, was cited for attempting to do the same thing.

  • The list goes on and on.

  • Why?

  • Because this is who Trump is more proof.

  • Remember what he said about Goya?

  • Vich back in August.

  • Here it is.

  • He's been in jail over a phone call where nothing happens.

  • I would think that they have been many politicians.

  • I'm not one of them, by the way that have said a lot worse over the telephone.

  • For the record, the call was the crime.

  • See, the fact that you don't complete a bribe doesn't make it okay.

  • And the reason he didn't complete it is because he got caught.

  • Say, Trump sees that I argue as no big deal because he did the same thing.

  • He wouldn't say anything like that over the phone.

  • He was impeached for doing the same thing, attempting a bribe.

  • But I also argue that Trump is not trying to get you to see abnormal things as normal.

  • He actually sees things like corruption, obstruction of justice, perjury, tax fraud, even bribery as part of the game.

  • And it's only wrong if you get caught.

  • Maybe so.

  • He grants clemency to about three dozen people, and they have overwhelmingly been people with a direct line to the White House or who served as political chits.

  • Carrick, Milken are peo D'Souza.

  • What's the big difference between them and the trump?

  • You know, the one thing is, Trump can't be prosecuted, at least not right now.

  • In fact, his party has made it clear he could do whatever he wants.

  • So is someone guilty of normalizing the abnormal?

  • Yes, but It's not Trump.

  • It's the GOP.

  • Here's exhibit A.

  • I'm saying, Mr President, the phone call was okay with me.

  • Exhibit Bay.

  • You really think he was serious about thinking that China's gonna investigate?

  • Uh, the Biden family Exhibit C.

  • Because Russia interfere.

  • The media pretends nobody else did.

  • All the main GOP ears are willing to blame the scrutiny of Trump on anything but the obvious.

  • Listen to this because you just don't like the guy you damn in line team since November of 2016.

  • No, he's got it backwards.

  • You guys were the ones who didn't like him back then.

  • Cruise without the beard.

  • Graham basically called Trump thoroughly corrupt when they were campaigning and worse, your whole field and they're elected friends called him a cheat and a fraud and promised that Donald Trump would bring disrespect to the office.

  • So what changed?

  • Trump hasn't.

  • Not a bit.

  • What changes The party is now feeding off the teat of fealty.

  • I argue the GOP is no longer grand.

  • The Mighty Packard ERM is packing it in.

  • In fact, Trump is not a member of the GOP.

  • You are all now part of the Trump organization.

  • You sound more like representatives off his failed casinos than people elected to check his power.

all right.
