3:36
news which continues
3:38
to be good in kansas state
3:41
that donald trump won by nearly sixteen
3:43
points and twenty twenty voters
3:45
overwhelmingly rejected a constitutional
3:48
amendment that would have allowed the state legislature
3:50
to ban abortion and they did
3:52
so by a margin of fifty eight
3:54
to forty one percent anti
3:57
abortion activists targeted tuesdays
3:59
mary
4:00
because it was mostly republican races so
4:03
they thought that mostly republicans would
4:05
turn out they were wrong turn
4:08
out was twice was large as it was in
4:10
the twenty eighteen primaries nearly
4:12
primaries million voters turned out
4:14
including a hundred thousand independent
4:17
voters who couldn't even cast even
4:19
cast in either party's primary
4:21
their just independent voters who turned out purely
4:25
to vote on this amendment and the abortion
4:27
mehmet results were to the last of
4:29
the twenty twenty presidential results in
4:32
every single county the
4:34
even the most rural areas of kansas
4:36
dan how did this happen
4:39
i mean about this new york times today
4:41
there was like a times compilation of national polling
4:44
before the that showed
4:46
forty eight percent of kansas voters said abortion
4:48
should be mostly legal forty seven percent
4:50
said mostly illegal they also showed the twenty
4:52
twenty cooperative election study also
4:55
showed an even split in that state
4:58
the went up ha
5:00
had had to happen one day john the polls
5:02
will be wrong the
5:06
now i walk i think
5:09
it is more of just saying a moment to
5:11
feel really good about this the
5:13
mean this is kansas this
5:16
is not the state it's
5:18
not a purple stay where novel just it is a state
5:20
so republicans that was the most famous
5:22
books written about republicans is called what's
5:24
the matter with kansas i ,
5:26
a doubt doubt everyone making your what's the
5:29
matter with kansas jokes on twitter
5:31
we we've seen it was seen unless they
5:33
are said as it is that's it no of
5:35
apartheid my answer
5:37
for every single fucking person has some my
5:40
on what's the matter of kinda some like none of them none of
5:42
them are they are they rank up
5:44
there with c b s
5:46
de jokes around the inflation reduction
5:48
as if elsa sign of how old you are the
5:51
way of asus for you dig
5:53
deep democratic party problems in the early
5:55
aughts that is this your neighbors your
5:57
with that book is called it anyway sorry
5:59
there are getting sky sports
6:02
like this like this voted out by fifteen
6:04
points i think
6:06
it is worth
6:08
step back and feeling good
6:10
about it in part because it
6:12
shows the power
6:15
of this issue because when we have i guess we're stuck
6:17
in this mentality that it's and it's
6:20
reasonable and well worn that's
6:23
nothing matters or era or even when things
6:25
do matters like marginal chefs right
6:27
donald trump sparse it insurrection
6:29
he goes down to points in the polls compelling
6:32
evidence of donald trump committing crimes
6:34
means they were up to a whopping two ten
6:36
republicans you think you should go to jail right
6:38
eat out a tacit and chromium poplar tax cut
6:41
nothing really changes
6:43
the not even
6:45
in a foreign country think she's your the martin matter
6:47
matters a lot
6:49
the way this is played out does far since adopt
6:51
season suggested big shifts
6:54
can happen
6:55
i think it's we have to abortion is not
6:58
just a new health care bill a new tax
7:00
minimum wage passes it does it's it
7:02
the fact that two thirds of this country
7:05
the born after the road
7:07
decision which means to their the middle of
7:09
their entire lives for you and a constitutional
7:12
right to make a fundamental decision about
7:15
your own bodies that and i
7:17
know my good group of six people most
7:20
of whom by people who got less votes than
7:22
it's their opponent processor
7:24
elections took away that right
7:27
this is something about it's about the board issue of abortion
7:29
it's it's about and he clearly
7:32
has sparked something very
7:34
powerful in the electorate and so
7:36
i think status how we ended up here this is not
7:38
this is not an access is not a low turnout
7:41
situation were sometimes these situations once
7:43
the side where the passion is turn out more people
7:46
and it doesn't reflect the large electorate this
7:48
is a high turnout primary
7:50
and so it's says lot about what
7:53
were politics is shifted since the supreme
7:55
court decided to metal people's rights
7:58
the turnout was too
7:59
it's of the twenty twenty presidential
8:02
election two thirds of a presidential
8:04
election for a mostly
8:06
republican primary in
8:09
the middle of august in a midterm
8:11
year that's unheard of and will not
8:13
let us that wait for season and
8:18
registered democrats turned
8:20
out at higher rates and registered republicans
8:22
which almost never happens in american politics these
8:24
days ah steve cranach you crunch the numbers
8:27
one fifth of all the no
8:29
votes know to the amendment
8:31
which is the pro choice position i came
8:33
from republicans one
8:35
fifth came from republicans so you
8:37
know speaking of republicans like should
8:40
these results scared the shit out of every republican
8:42
candidate memory competitive race on the country
8:45
yes yes they should they absolutely
8:47
should and i think you hit on in your interests
8:50
the number this is getting the most which is a
8:52
, thousand independence
8:55
turned out only to vote on this issue
8:57
they had no other reason for not they were barred
9:00
by law firm voting on any other offices not
9:02
a case of there is a hotly
9:04
contested gubernatorial primary gubernatorial send
9:06
a primary the cause of much we will turn out and they
9:08
voted on abortion they turned out in
9:11
a they'd never turned out and before they
9:13
have no history voting a primary some cases as a
9:15
closed primary process and they voted
9:17
because they believed this
9:20
was worth voting on and worth
9:22
their time mj and i think that's to
9:24
be very very alarming to really of
9:26
why i also think it's worth noting
9:29
that
9:30
about every republican candidate
9:32
in the most high profile competitive
9:35
races in the country they've
9:37
taken a position on abortion that is so
9:39
extreme and so out of step with
9:41
most of the country and
9:44
it didn't necessarily have to be like that after
9:46
dogs we remember after dobbs has
9:48
decided ah republican
9:51
with as was the that are and c or the nrsc
9:53
or one of those official committees are
9:55
put out a bunch of talking points because they could
9:57
they be new the danger in
10:00
this issue and they tried to try to tell
10:02
their can a to take a middle middle path
10:04
here and say yeah of course we're we're against
10:06
abortion but you know there should
10:08
be exceptions and we would never wanna
10:11
arrest doctors are women or anything
10:13
like that probably is bullshit talking points around the
10:15
were bullshit but
10:17
the homepage republican candidates
10:19
whether it's and we're gonna talk about some of the other
10:21
results but whether it's you know masters
10:24
or are tutor dixon in michigan
10:28
they've taken positions taken positions that say we're
10:30
going to criminalize all abortion with
10:32
exceptions by the way some states
10:34
are trying to say if if the of abortion is banned
10:37
in one state are you try to travel of
10:39
state to get an abortion somewhere else we're going to criminalize
10:41
that too thick to these positions
10:43
are so out of step with most
10:46
people the share of republicans republicans
10:48
this is not all voters the share of who
10:51
believe that abortion should be illegal
10:53
in all cases is now
10:55
only eighteen percent eighteen
10:58
percent of republicans so we're going
11:00
back to that first whole lot
11:02
but i read you that you know forty
11:04
eight percent of kansans saw
11:07
oh abortion should be mostly legal forty
11:10
seven percent mostly illegal
11:12
you know the mostly is doing a lot of work
11:14
there and has been for a while after
11:17
dobbs republican politicians
11:20
decided that they were going to polarize the issue
11:22
as much as possible on the wrong
11:24
side of public opinion by saying
11:27
we want abortion illegal in
11:29
all cases everywhere that position
11:32
is normally out of step with country is autistic with
11:34
most of the people in their parties and parties
11:36
don't i think they fully realized remember they
11:38
just don't care what i would have
11:40
horrible political mistake they
11:42
have made by taking by taking
11:45
you know when we third times when republican
11:48
politicians our lying
11:50
the purpose of appealing to primary voters
11:53
like their w some true believers in
11:55
the in the big why some of them got
11:58
nominated on tuesday but
12:00
a wanted him to protect because it's price of
12:02
admission to mega voters to endorsement
12:05
all of that
12:06
that on this one this is where real
12:09
position this is what they have always believed
12:11
it has always be other position that abortion
12:13
be should be illegal in every
12:15
instance
12:16
rape incest wife of them
12:19
that is their beliefs and they were givens
12:21
or permission to avoid acting that belief
12:24
in a world and which row in to
12:26
see where the a lance now that they
12:28
are not they are they are a while
12:30
to whether extremists flag flies
12:33
and push these incredibly cruel
12:35
and irresponsible and very unpopular persistence
12:38
yeah and look i mentioned i'm
12:40
like masters in arizona and
12:42
tutor dixon is running for governor michigan
12:45
ah this is also going to be a and
12:48
the governor's race where
12:52
the dog mess around over said that if if
12:54
he is gov he'll sign an abortion ban into
12:56
law it's just shapiro is governor
12:58
he will not abortion we protect in that state
13:01
it's a very clear cut decision in
13:03
pennsylvania ah you can
13:05
have this issue in arizona you're gonna have it in michigan
13:07
there's gonna be a ballot initiative likely in michigan
13:10
much like there was in kansas where
13:12
in there in the midterm election gretchen whitmer
13:15
the governor of michigan will be on one side
13:17
be in pro choice i've the ballot initiative and
13:19
to dixon will be on the other side that will probably
13:21
get more people to vote as or hopefully
13:23
it should in georgia or
13:26
there's a very close senate race herschel walker
13:28
again as said that he would
13:30
ban all abortion no exceptions
13:33
whatsoever ads in georgia and
13:35
then there were lots to be direct ballot initiatives in kentucky
13:37
and montana dan you were running
13:40
a democratic mid term campaign
13:42
right now what advice would you be giving
13:44
your candidate about two things
13:47
one to talk about abortion access
13:49
and to how to prioritize
13:51
abortion as an issue in this midterms
13:54
i think we have to recognize
13:56
that public opinion on abortion
13:59
the overwhelming on the side of access
14:01
to abortion but it is quite nuanced view
14:04
, majority of people who say who
14:06
identify as pro choice you support supported
14:08
row who its overturning overturning
14:11
that majority about according to lot of
14:13
holes and up three in ten of those
14:15
people who identify as for a choice or angry
14:17
about the dot decisions will tell pollsters
14:19
they themselves are personally opposed
14:21
to abortion you find that some with the
14:23
limits that are well
14:26
below the extremists and was you put forward
14:28
the ones that forward the of democrats disagreement
14:30
ourselves opposed more popular
14:33
than strictly overturning were were banning
14:35
abortions and so what i think we have to recognize
14:38
his the people
14:40
in kansas city excellent job
14:42
ed how they frame
14:45
their messaging and are some twitter threat to go through all
14:47
of the raza recherche bill see or from
14:49
politico i think has one of those two
14:51
threads worthwhile is it we
14:53
have to have a message that is broadly
14:55
appealing to that majority right
14:58
in a polling shows that the
15:00
most popular message by far in
15:02
that case is government
15:05
interference in the
15:08
personal decision to have an abortion
15:11
i did you gonna politicians government
15:13
except are involved in that and that is the one
15:15
that works for people who are identify
15:18
as pro choice personally and for the
15:20
product many who identify as
15:23
opposed to he gets to that hundreds that lot of those
15:25
hundred thousand independence we talked about this
15:27
is broader issue freedom and
15:29
i think the
15:31
message and going to be a little bit different in every
15:33
state because some teeth if you had
15:35
this broad coalition of who are
15:38
much more progressive other side and others you can
15:40
see who had dead if i as mater on the issue of abortion
15:43
but do not have so far the
15:45
overturning of row or the outright bannings
15:47
the mix that those two groups
15:49
is going a different state by state i imagine in kansas
15:52
it means more heavily towards the people within a fires
15:54
markets are getting more republican versatile
15:56
who have spent their wives voting for politicians
15:59
to identify
15:59
the anti choice
16:01
that was it may be different in a it's boy
16:03
were more purple state the second
16:06
is i think it's absolutely essential
16:08
that we center the issue
16:11
of abortion here and there are two ways to do that one
16:13
if you're running for federal office is
16:15
you make sure that everyone understands
16:17
to sex once if republicans
16:19
get control of the and senate
16:22
will ban abortion nationally
16:25
so if you are in one of those states they could decide
16:27
the election but
16:29
he has but where abortion remains legal
16:32
that not a given for the rest of tuck california
16:34
for example this is one
16:37
of the most progressive states where comes to abortion access
16:39
it has the makings of a sanctuary state we talked
16:41
to our friend assembly woman but puffy
16:43
wix about that a few law a month or so ago
16:45
by we need people turn
16:48
out in the house races they could are our
16:50
only chance of preserving our majority as
16:52
if abortion was abortion the line for themselves
16:54
as well because it is and the half
16:57
that argument is that if you send to more
16:59
pro-choice anti filibuster democratic senators
17:02
to the senate and we made him a house weekend
17:04
codified we can make abortion legal ever
17:06
my clarify and so i think
17:09
that's worth for see can if is can be different
17:11
can either do with what is on the ballot and that states
17:13
will who you're running against bites
17:16
we have to center it and then the last piece
17:18
of this is we have to make it
17:20
about free is
17:22
that your person for a sec eight anti
17:24
to this larger narrative one you have articulate on spot
17:26
as many times about a republican
17:28
party he wants politicians and the government decide
17:31
whether you have an abortion or can help
17:33
here you can get few should marry what
17:35
books you can rebut teachers can say what companies
17:37
can why on
17:39
and on and on and making and part of that larger
17:41
extremists agenda of the
17:44
of the far right in right mack republicans
17:46
yeah i'm you can imagine you
17:49
don't have to imagine i've been i've talked to the voters
17:52
somewhere , the for the vagus nerve the wilderness
17:55
voters who feel cross pressured which are most
17:57
voters even though we don't we don't think that and
18:00
they are horrified by dogs and
18:03
they're very pro choice but they are
18:06
upset about inflation they're
18:08
disappointed and i don't think anyone washington has done
18:10
anything for them and i think
18:12
that the way that the selection
18:15
becomes a choice
18:17
and not a referendum on
18:19
biden and democrats is
18:22
by pointing out the
18:24
ample examples of republican
18:26
extremism over the last several
18:28
months year two years and
18:31
abortion and the positions that they have taken
18:33
on abortion i believe are central
18:36
to that case you can then talk about
18:38
them coming for same sex marriage coming
18:40
for contraception coming for interracial
18:42
marriage i'm coming for
18:45
kids gay and trans kids
18:48
are book banning you talk about all that i
18:50
think abortion central it's the central example
18:52
since they have now moved to
18:55
ban it criminalize it with no exceptions
18:57
in states all across the country and
18:59
i think making that central
19:02
to your campaign about republican
19:04
extremism republican extremism because
19:06
on the other side of this if
19:08
you're worried about an mit you know you're also worried about inflation
19:11
and you are worried about when
19:13
you say look which which
19:15
party who do you trust to fight for
19:17
you you you think you think
19:19
the republicans are going to fix inflation and
19:22
cost of living when all they've been doing
19:24
for the last several months is trying to a
19:26
tell you when you can start a family tell
19:29
you who you can marry who you can be who you can
19:31
love how many kids you can that
19:33
that's what that's what they've been concerned about for last
19:36
are several months they haven't been concerned about
19:38
inflation they haven't concerned about the cost of women
19:40
or you want to go
19:42
with the party that has been fighting
19:44
for a couple of years to make sure that you can
19:46
have all freedoms and also by the way
19:49
are trying to pass to pass to make
19:51
sure that your energy bills or lower that your prescription
19:53
drug a lower that your healthcare premiums are lower
19:55
than that we're going to try save the planet and
19:57
save democracy which each
19:59
pair the think gonna fight for your what that and
20:01
that's the truth and that to me is the
20:03
best chance to get out of the whole referendum
20:07
frame which is usually what happens in happens midterm election
20:10
know this election should be everything
20:12
we possibly can to make it make referendum on republican
20:14
extremists
20:15
and there's obviously a fear
20:18
here that's where it it overly
20:20
simplistic we read the results of the selection
20:23
in and say it's just say
20:25
abortion as many times as password just say
20:27
pro choice or just say we're we're just say dot it's
20:29
it's this singular issue and of self
20:31
and it it is a preemie to issue it
20:33
absolutely has for mendis towers and
20:36
we should lean into it but it has a
20:38
more nuanced story
20:40
it's people's position on abortion a signifier
20:43
something about them it's every campaign
20:45
boils down to a over
20:47
convincing voters you're going to fight for that
20:49
who is a politician going to stand for when they get to washington
20:52
and the fact that you did his can
20:54
it will take these extremists positions
20:57
is a sign that are not going to fight for you
20:59
on every issue right on abortion
21:02
on healthcare on inflation to add
21:04
stat like did this is why it's important
21:06
to raise it but it doesn't just eatery you're
21:08
not the candidate says ravi
21:10
way the most times is not win this election
21:12
is more is more sophisticated
21:15
well i think you know what's true about abortionists has
21:17
been true about other issues as well you
21:19
what a challenge we've seen in the past as the ballot
21:21
measures like minimum wage or
21:23
medicaid expansion when
21:26
in red states where democratic
21:28
candidates who support those policies loose
21:32
or , thing with are in florida with and
21:34
franchising voters ah who's been
21:36
who who spent time in prison and
21:39
i think the question of how can avoid
21:41
that dynamic on an issue
21:43
like abortion were if it's a standalone
21:46
ballot measure does very well just like minimum
21:48
wage and medicaid expansion all these policies we
21:50
care about but somehow when the democratic
21:52
candidate runs we don't ah
21:55
now i think that you know that the initial
21:57
reaction would be well my we have had city
21:59
democratic it it but i
22:02
, it's a little more complicated met partly because like
22:04
i think one caution in kansas here is
22:06
we talked about had the rate of democratic turnout was hired
22:08
and republican turnout the midterms
22:10
more republicans turn out for other reasons
22:13
when it's not just abortion on the right there might
22:16
some republicans who abortion isn't
22:18
the issue the get them to the polls or maybe they're
22:20
maybe they're pro choice republicans or maybe they're just
22:22
republicans who don't want to banned in all circumstances
22:25
but in a midterm election when there are a whole bunch of other
22:27
issues there that may get more republicans
22:29
to turn out so how how should democrats handle
22:31
that
22:32
challenge i think that's
22:34
largely about tissue syrians
22:37
my base of example we've given recently
22:39
is the minimum wage ballot initiative
22:41
got these to the in florida and twice
22:43
when he got to the sixty percent threshold got
22:46
like forty six percent to the states which
22:48
means that there are six year there's a huge majority for
22:50
many ways but they did not think the minimum
22:52
wage was central to their presidential and
22:55
so this is where if you want to
22:57
narrow that delta between
23:00
what peeved the book the pro choice
23:03
majority in this country in the democratic vote sheriff's
23:05
you have to make the the
23:08
the congressional votes to give us more about
23:10
the state legislative vote beats around
23:13
that if she would have to be high in voters' minds
23:15
when they think about it and when the thing about who they vote
23:17
for that if he wants abortion
23:19
if want access to want to be legal in states
23:22
than you have to are in this country
23:24
you have to vote for a democrat and south's
23:26
it's about raising the science of raising is that
23:28
avidly science is very high right now but that it's
23:30
certainly change over the next two and a half months until
23:32
the election
23:33
and i do think to the point about messaging that
23:36
republican extremism has also
23:39
given democrats space
23:42
much more space to talk to a broader audience
23:44
of voters which certainly they
23:46
did in kansas city mentioned
23:48
the ads like to add that are interesting
23:51
one they both the no side
23:54
one was say no to government
23:56
mandates which you mentioned that even mention
23:58
the word abortion in the they
24:00
just say no to more government mandates and
24:02
they actually superimposed over a picture of
24:04
a coded mask mandate sign is
24:06
is clearly not an ad for for
24:08
democrats even for independence against
24:10
an ad for republicans no more government mandates
24:13
made your cupboard thing but again affective
24:15
in turning out some republicans to vote for this measure
24:18
so okay it works there another
24:20
when i very powerful and and
24:22
it was a woman who
24:24
is a mother of a three year old boy who talked
24:26
about how she would have died she
24:28
hadn't had an abortion and
24:30
again there are places all over
24:33
this country right now where
24:35
when they say no exceptions they mean no exceptions for
24:37
the life in the health of the mother as and
24:39
think for people who feel conflicted
24:42
about abortion which again of all the
24:44
people who support making sure
24:46
that abortion is legal a third
24:48
of those people personally oppose abortion
24:50
even though they wanna make sure that it remains
24:53
legal that group of people
24:55
you see an ad like that and that's probably pretty
24:57
powerful so i do our understanding
25:00
that you are messaging not
25:02
always different parts of the country but to different groups of people
25:05
and their messages the can hold larger
25:07
coalition together cause
25:10
of the extreme positions that republicans have taken
25:12
is important for democrats remember as well
25:15
them
25:16
you know millions of dollars were
25:18
spent on each side of this ballot initiative innings twelve
25:21
million dollars altogether organizers
25:23
were on the ground for months
25:25
the for dobbs was even announced i remember
25:27
far before the supreme court kathleen
25:30
sebelius use former governor of kansas served
25:32
in the above ministration with us was
25:34
telling us to talk about the sun on
25:36
pod save america and telling us this was coming
25:39
and are talking about how they've been organizing
25:41
rent it for a long time like are there any
25:43
lessons other organizers
25:46
should take from from the success
25:48
of this this this organizing f
25:50
the up i mean obviously is
25:53
this kinda when and cases it can win anywhere
25:56
and i think that's just term that's on a whole
25:58
host of progressive issues that if do
25:59
the
26:00
the hard work of politics
26:03
the organizing the registry the grass
26:05
roots canvassing exeter use
26:07
fact the have real success but i think
26:09
was in this this camp comes through in
26:11
what the stories heard about how people
26:14
organized around it in the ads that we're done
26:16
is persuasion yeah
26:19
was all about for switch persuading
26:21
people that it mattered persuading people what it was about
26:23
stay wasn't just be never going to find
26:25
a bunch of based democrats france and piece of mail readers
26:27
homicides murder to his belt persuasion
26:29
and i think it's like that applies
26:32
to everything database of strategic
26:34
well thought out long term
26:36
organizing where they persuasion mentality
26:38
anything is possible impulse
26:41
yeah never give up on voting never
26:43
give up on organizing never give up on persuasion
26:46
all three of those things and gets it's that's what sad
26:48
that with the and by the the , is
26:50
not over in kansas this november i'm
26:52
all but one state supreme court justices
26:55
on the ballot ah and currently there's
26:57
approach was majority this is the majority that actually
26:59
has ruled that there is a
27:02
right to an abortion in the kansas constitution so
27:04
ah anti abortion activists are now going to be
27:06
are targeting the court so
27:09
our in and elsewhere this fight isn't over
27:11
which is another thing to keep in mind as we
27:13
we win these victories and we okay great
27:15
now everything's protected we go home you
27:18
can in is an ongoing battle
27:20
because of the forces arrayed
27:22
against us here are not gonna quit and we can either
27:24

30:42
tuesday's primaries bruner
30:44
as he says yeah we did good stuff
30:46
or in arizona just about every
30:48
statewide candidate is now a mega republican
30:51
who wants the last election overturned
30:53
blake masters will be the nominee for senate
30:56
mega media star carry lake will
30:58
likely be the nominee for governor though hurry hasn't
31:00
officially been called yet and mark fincham mark
31:02
member of the fucking oath keepers
31:05
the oath keepers they the the domestic
31:08
, group that was charged with seditious
31:10
conspiracy for january six
31:13
he's going to be the nominee for secretary of state
31:15
unbelievable arizona's top officials
31:18
that's election that's that's the nominee of on their public
31:20
insights on the democratic side obviously
31:22
martelly be are senate candidate that secretary
31:25
of katie hobbes will be the nominee
31:27
for governor and for maricopa
31:29
county recorder adrian font as is leading
31:31
in the race for secretary of state
31:34
before we get to the mega bozos what
31:37
do you think about hobbes and fund has his candidate
31:40
i think they're both very very interesting
31:42
candidates i kitty hobbes was
31:45
thought for a long time as a democrat the best
31:47
chance to win this governorship she was the secretary
31:49
of state's ah who stood up
31:51
against the big lie believers and insurrectionist
31:53
in the sides cyber ninjas in a twenty twenty elections
31:57
military of i stood up stood the cyber
31:59
nemesis that are the sodas my
32:02
last the ad will that there
32:04
would be the cari like sided with a cyber dangerous
32:06
and she fought on buses springs
32:08
i've heard a just of and
32:10
funds as as america county recorder county
32:13
also in with someone has to do with
32:16
dealt with the election issue when
32:18
is when is when someone who are
32:20
you know by all reports and for folks
32:22
in arizona is a very strong candidates
32:24
you know arizona's a tuscan the
32:27
a half year but he's a good democratic
32:29
candidates against incredibly flawed republican
32:31
ones so we absolutely have
32:33
a shot in winning the arizona governorship
32:37
and secretary of state would really
32:39
stop insurrection stop point out point it's
32:41
tracks and losing it
32:44
would have the exact opposite effect and
32:46
would raise real questions about the ability to actually
32:48
legitimately it's town the electoral
32:50
votes works joe biden or democrat
32:53
to win arizonans twenty four
32:55
yeah remember the i'm is the job about
32:57
the the governor of arizona and the secretary
32:59
of state of arizona to certify
33:02
the election results something
33:04
that's about the that secretary of state
33:06
jobs and ah gov
33:08
republican gov doug do see and
33:11
twenty and the
33:14
lake mark mention the basically
33:16
said that you know they'll only sort of i
33:18
have they want to survive so very dangerous
33:20
stuff or looks like about the way the
33:23
democratic candidates to frame their opponents on
33:25
let's start with mark kelly and blake masters there
33:27
are obviously a lot of contrast for kelly to choose
33:30
from ah here's his first out
33:32
of a gate just released this morning
33:35
about blake masters cyclist
33:36
wait masters has made his dangerous
33:39
ideas on abortion easy to
33:40
ma'am
33:49
for bleach taking away healthcare freedom
33:51
for arizona women is just
33:53
the beginning i actually think we should comforter
33:55
so every seven years
33:59
going you punish the doctor blake
34:02
masters too dangerous for arizona
34:05
we were
34:06
the as an excellent as ah what i
34:08
think like masters is
34:11
perhaps the most dangerous republican
34:13
candidate on the ballot in a very long time
34:16
when judy vance is an absolute
34:18
fraud doing karaoke
34:20
every want like you conceive a flop sweat
34:22
from him trying to be something he is it he may win
34:24
anyway it's but he is just
34:27
of us the masters
34:29
is is a far
34:31
right through believing
34:34
militant cultural revolutionary who
34:36
believes what he thinks mag as a
34:38
slogan to trump it is a philosophy
34:41
for like masseurs he believes this country's
34:44
is in an apocalypse a downward
34:46
spiral because the country's demographically
34:48
women have many rights the lgbtq
34:51
plus community has too many rights he is trying to return
34:54
america it's me assessors
34:56
through the power of state to
34:58
a different era he talked about the
35:00
front of women staying home from work about
35:03
taking away people's freedoms about
35:05
getting rid of marriage equality and
35:07
he does all of that we had bunch of
35:09
really stream robinson it's there for
35:12
their they all sorted they're all like
35:14
brains tickled fox news right herschel
35:16
walker you know by
35:19
the accent or us like masters
35:21
is young he is deep ties in arizona
35:24
he is dangerously smart and
35:27
he has the a he knows what he is doing
35:29
and he knows the ways in which he's going to try
35:31
to san the edges of
35:33
his incredibly radical
35:35
extremists philosophies and were
35:37
to win this election
35:39
the i mean you've already started doing that first
35:42
ad without this morning
35:44
and it's just an ad of his wife and
35:47
she's subset of but the
35:49
direction of the country there's inflation there's
35:51
they do they gas station shot and
35:53
then there's blake pushing his three kids on a swaying
35:56
and it does not seem like a
35:58
mega extremist kind
36:00
of thing it all seems like you just your typical
36:03
white middle class family in arizona
36:05
everything seemed fine it's like very
36:09
it it worried me a little bit only because of my go
36:11
they he he's not you're not going
36:13
his true beliefs here knows ,
36:15
knows he has to san the edges down the
36:18
de se si had an had
36:20
out before mark kelly that about masters
36:22
that was to martelly that but when broader than
36:24
abortion it had the i think
36:26
it's demonic quote but it also talked
36:28
about they a quote from him saying up
36:30
like master saying maybe we should privatized social
36:33
security we have to cut the not sometimes
36:35
i , that's gonna be pretty effective
36:38
ah arizona has an older up population
36:41
and i don't think gonna like or the privatizing
36:43
social security again that doesn't sound
36:45
extremists to some of the that that you mentioned
36:48
but i think for a lot of people who i
36:50
don't follow politics closely and don't who
36:52
peter thiel is and don't know
36:54
what like you know blake masters philosophy
36:58
hearing that he wants to private as of security is probably
37:00
going to be a pretty damaging hit
37:03
nervous took his i've been doing this myself i'm like guys coming
37:05
up peter thiel proteges but like
37:07
i don't have a lot of people know who peter deal is or how
37:10
i can use his you
37:13
know like unless you fall the stuff closely right
37:15
you can read plenty of this what a good pieces
37:17
out there that i have been recently about
37:19
how fucking scary peter teal is and
37:21
blake masters and their philosophy your eight have the
37:24
guts to trump in their view same out there bell
37:26
wrote a great one of the or times about this like trump
37:28
in their view was like the disruptor ah
37:31
he was his break and everything apart but they actually
37:33
have apart very specific of
37:36
are you know why we need to get
37:38
rid of democracy essentially
37:39
the they're sort of three types of
37:42
republicans in this era
37:44
there are the ones who
37:48
trump is a doofus by do not have
37:50
any sort of morality or shame so they just pretend
37:52
like say like him as a vehicle for their
37:56
right extremists conservative views
37:58
are sort of like all ambition there
38:00
are true trump
38:02
believers who believe in the may and
38:04
donald trump right that is yup
38:06
herschel walker or that is cari
38:08
weights probably more fincham
38:10
and then there are the people the
38:12
quake masters you view trump is nothing
38:14
more than a vehicle for their even more
38:17
extremist views they disagree with
38:19
trump on a lot of things that help from can elective
38:22
heterodox views on preserving social security
38:24
like you know her trump's a wanted private i saw security
38:26
it's preserving medicare sorts
38:29
things they just they were trapped
38:31
in of as you said he was that he was a disruptor he
38:33
was they were going us ah you
38:36
know stay in here okay with think
38:38
of that which is the most and or ah what's
38:40
the racing analogy for
38:43
when you dropped your when you dragged behind some once
38:45
by so and the i only this
38:47
was f one some i go find other ways of that's
38:49
what liberals nascar as i just that his
38:52
arms to see here nor there
38:54
but i think he is ah masters
38:56
is deeply deeply dangerous in addition to the same
38:59
other belt is no time to an incredible
39:01
mother jones piece from a few weeks ago there was
39:03
they've dug deep into into
39:05
masters his writings and he was in college
39:07
that are is very much reading
39:10
with week and fincham how much would you
39:12
focus on the prospect of them refusing
39:14
to certify the democratic
39:16
during arizona
39:17
i think their belief in the big why
39:19
and their promises to not
39:22
allow arizona voters to pick the next
39:24
president's is a is once again a
39:26
signifier their radicals any
39:28
is much more important from racer be much central
39:30
from our insurance because he's efforts in jersey
39:32
lox election apparatus but for most
39:35
people do not believe most political attacks
39:37
are you have to give them reason to believe it and
39:40
i think the big why white the
39:42
board for total ban on abortion and overturning routes
39:45
is a proof point to disperse really
39:47
is of touch which will then allow them to
39:49
leave a whole bunch of things like privatized of
39:51
security it's stealing elections
39:54
on policy is etc etc
39:57
the winter mine on degree of to complicate the simple harry
39:59
like the guy the the of keepers violent
40:01
extremist group has been charged with the dishes conspiracy
40:03
around january sixth he he wants
40:06
to decertify the last election and
40:08
he marched to the fucking capital he
40:10
was he marched to the capital
40:13
on january six that
40:15
the it is not more difficult than that that's who that
40:17
guy is flush against the insidious politics
40:20
being a member of a right wing terror
40:22
organizations a plus it a primary latino
40:24
guy marries a downside in general we suspect
40:27
governor general so did it was a
40:29
pretty good night for trump in other
40:31
races as well most of the maggots
40:33
had it's he endorsed one including john gibbs
40:35
in michigan who defeated representative peter meyer
40:37
one the ten republicans who voted to
40:39
impeach trump or in missouri senate
40:42
race trump the last minute endorsement
40:44
of eric may have been the booth
40:46
at needed to put eric over the top
40:49
that's right there were erickson the race missouri
40:52
attorney general eric schmidt the and
40:54
former missouri governor missouri governor the loser
40:57
and donald trump decided to pick between them putting
40:59
out a press release that said he
41:01
was endorsing quote eric
41:05
i can't decide if this if this of the dumbest
41:08
trump stories yeah

41:16
i mean did you read the politico article about
41:18
it that it is an article by
41:20
alex eisenstadt so i'm sure who was sure who reporter

41:27
should be a museum for journalists
41:29
trying make current
41:32
absolute insanity see my something
41:34
normal like it you will
41:36
like the you you can i can tell the
41:39
reporter pregnancy like what the is wrong people
41:41
because it was like say has a scene
41:43
where trump has been every sisters
41:45
is amazing service he's a bedminster his
41:47
club in new jersey says it's too hot to be immoral ago
41:50
and this is a sweater i imagine

there for writings and then trump
42:37
has his idea that he's going to earth is erickson
42:39
his
42:40
you know it's like through these moments of the stories
42:42
were trump because morphs into homer simpson
42:44
and he's like sure it's france as he likes
42:47
seriously wants to confirm like three times
42:49
that they spell eric the same way so
42:51
that the ploy will that
42:53
, that smear the funniest part of whole story
42:56
is the trump's like wait a minute wait a minute or
42:58
they both e r i c because of one of
43:00
he are i k this whole fucking
43:02
plan is is not gonna work now
43:06
if another they're both with a c because
43:09
of , if it
43:11
if a story that's funny and done because it does like
43:14
not just the political sorry but than other reporters
43:16
are asking both of the eric's about it
43:18
and like when you asked the carriage about
43:20
it he feels like it if it makes one
43:23
fucking dumb meter
43:25
, us without are talking about
43:28
about is such a dumb stories
43:30
of people are of the he couldn't indoors the carrots
43:33
but they're both their names were eric that he just
43:35
said i i all
43:38
both of them inset of that you'll
43:41
be happy with my statement and
43:43
they assume they were getting bigger dorset had a subsurface
43:45
it's just said eric it's this said
43:49
up until tuesday the
43:51
dumbest indoors in the history of politics
43:54
was when the new york times and doors to candidates in the primary
43:57
ssssss so
43:59
far exceeded
43:59
right now he if
44:02
i beat out those eggheads just
44:05
a thought wow
44:07
well how do you feel about the in are all
44:10
kidding aside how do you about the fact that air lost
44:13
his even grains mean see again air
44:15
great and horrific human
44:17
being accused ,
44:20
both sexual assault and physical assaults
44:23
assaults the hidden app is of kidnapping
44:25
some was to recently us on sex result
44:27
from your and physically assaulting his former
44:30
his ex wife his children i'm
44:32
just a horrible person but
44:35
of but republicans the rnc thought that if greatest
44:38
one either they lose
44:40
the missouri senate seat or senate the very least
44:42
that have to put have bunch money in missouri they it
44:45
out to win other races for republicans
44:47
like that
44:48
are in see and in that store the told run
44:50
him again or did not want i'm not
44:52
wine or grains to win has
44:54
a how you feel about the fact that he was because of i would
44:56
have been better for democrats if he won't
44:59
even have rented one i think of of an absolute
45:01
long shot for democrats to win the race better
45:03
chance sense brightens on the
45:05
ballot but i am skeptical that's
45:08
democrats would have a time energy and money to
45:10
try to take advantage of that long shot like the
45:12
rule better without eric brightens controlling
45:15
anything power yeah probably i wasn't
45:17
agatha by the end of the day i just
45:20
is this think this think this of whether zoc about the reason missionary
45:22
else is the true danger to the mattress
45:24
not the individual republicans who are an office
45:27
is republicans controlling
45:30
the reason their control government is because
45:32
i not necessarily give
45:35
voters are go are coming out to vote for them
45:38

popular internet phrase of shit is
47:24
fucked up in bullshit yeah and the
47:26
idea is to basically take people

seriously when they notice

are alarming to them are troubling of them
47:36
and acknowledge that in many

and out at but also did give
47:42
them an ability to kind of grasp them more fully
47:45
that they don't become demoralized
47:47
deflated or assume that we're just
47:50
basically on a road to hell and
47:52
that in that you're no good can come

49:33
thank you to everyone decided to me the
49:35
run the washington post the titled
49:38
most third parties have failed fears
49:41
, hours won't so
49:43
right off the bat the opening line the pieces political
49:46
extremism pieces political our nation apart the two
49:48
major parties have failed to remedy the crisis
49:51
then there's out some stats about how the
49:53
lot americans way the country's has in the right direction
49:56
in their more independence never then
49:58
we get this quote
49:59
the
49:59
that is state badly needs a new political
50:02
party one the reflects the moderate
50:04
commonsense majority they'd
50:06
outdated parties have failed by catering
50:08
to the fringes as a result most
50:11
americans feel they aren't represented the
50:14
for as to wrote it i'm gonna going
50:16
out and there's a easy mode and hard mode here because
50:18
it was written three okay
50:21
serving at all three
50:23
do you get a bonus point i guess
50:25
i know i can get one got to i think
50:27
we're guy but i can't regret the third even though
50:30
my i remember seeing the headline
50:33
and the and the byline and i can't the
50:35
andor yang i wasn't that was other
50:38
season gray todd whitman you to
50:40
be there and and i don't know the third and
50:43
you have a third as because it jill stein
50:45
ah janeiro smash specific
50:47
as specific do ah
50:49
david roth was the
50:51
first name is correcting of the last name it as name
50:53
david
50:55
mark hey the duke this assisted
50:58
says david jolly david
51:01
o of msnbc
51:03
as having a literal msnbc job
51:07
i feel like the the take
51:10
that didn't make the cut of take was in the writers
51:12
write up of this op ed was
51:15
, it's the party which
51:17
is centrist has specific policies
51:19
yet it say it is thursday launch
51:22
how will we solved the big issues facing america
51:25
not left not right
51:27
forward
51:29
you know what
51:32
this is our adena you guys feel about this one
51:34
but in the true spirit of take appreciate his
51:36
would you give the full playbook for
51:38
people who really tried to
51:40
be as troll as as possible i
51:43
want to give us only two because
51:45
i feel like it's so lazy
51:47
like a specific from what brian cited
51:50
in the reuters feasts like they they're not even
51:53
trying of eleven to wear to
51:55
wear party who just wants to who
51:57
just to take on the big issues as
51:59
know there was no they're okay
52:02
so i agree that
52:04
on the flipside it is like the ultimate
52:07
tate around it like do i believe jim
52:09
vandehei almost launched a third party debbie
52:11
underrated part right right and so so
52:14
as like uno mas to the to the game
52:16
i i think i'm going to give it the ball
52:18
playbook your the innovate yea if he
52:20
wanted to launch of innovation party but instead he just
52:23
wrote a book called smart brevity a
52:25
has a success further and
52:27
for maxi as somebody about
52:29
at your local bookseller simply accept that
52:31
is david roberts or somebody else i
52:34
forget who said
52:37
, the thing that i most about this
52:39
this like annual ritual of of the
52:41
centrist third party the doesn't have like
52:43
a specific plan whatever that they eventually
52:45
get bullied into putting out a policy agenda and it's
52:47
like the party policy agenda
52:50
arm and they just didn't realize
52:53
they've been democrats all along on
52:55
a brand themselves differently than what do you think
52:58
i'm a give one politico i
53:01
appreciate brandstater think anytime
53:03
we can breed bring up the innovative party that
53:05
is a good for last so i supported it's on a great
53:07
moments because all forget the innovation
53:09
for a ticket was mark zuckerberg and jim mattis i think
53:11
white guy on my god wow
53:13
good good memories you
53:16
know that other than i have a subsidiary
53:20
the wrists but it gets one play bought
53:22
for the room for the room one for the reason john yard
53:25
is like they're not even trying this even trying
53:27
air a shell corporation for
53:29
yeah angel yang relevance that's what of this
53:31
the ah yes i mean again the articles
53:34
titled here's why our third party won't fail
53:36
and the reason they side is because there are more independence
53:39
now than ever
53:40
the independence or a block or
53:43
a mistake and okay this nice one
53:45
is a suggestion from our friend john bothered you guys
53:47
know him hard , good as
53:50
is article is a bit all of us a weekly
53:53
weekly after i haven't gotten
53:55
a variety zone my that is
53:57
articles my old but he said we should do it just for brian
53:59
and i'd agree it's from the hell
54:02
it is a piece titled prosecuting
54:04
trump will ruin our nation
54:06
and neither her home accountable
54:09
fears physicists affairs
54:12
acquired ah there may be ah
54:14
viable criminal case that from corruptly
54:16
of second congressional proceedings namely
54:18
january six
54:20
but that is highly debatable the
54:22
justice department brought such case much of the
54:24
country would condemn the indictment as political
54:27
paybacks such prosecution of former
54:29
president can take years and messing the federal
54:31
courts in unprecedented president
54:34
trump's should be held to account prosecution
54:36
would be the wrong vehicle here's hoping cooler
54:38
heads prevail
54:40
the marijuana yes you read that
54:44
andrew mccarthy wow yeah ah
54:48
very good from downtown
54:50
very manly mccarthy so
54:53
i was actually assumed i was wrong about that
54:55
because if but i thought if i'm right about that
54:58
than that's like the greatest indication we
55:01
have that trump is hyper
55:03
guilty of all these crimes and definitely that of approximately
55:05
i have because any mccarthy is like yeah
55:08
sort of very right wing legal writer
55:11
for national view whose job seems to be
55:14
painting over rams republicans
55:16
commit in explaining why there there's actually nothing
55:18
wrong there so if he's basically saying yeah
55:20
trump did it but would just be really you'd
55:22
be really for the country to do anything about it
55:25
then i i think the jig is basically
55:27
up like there's nobody was even a scotia
55:30
credibility on the right who can say no actually
55:32
everything he did here is like by the book there's
55:34
no laws against any of it trump's fine
55:38
i would say that i'm equal parts
55:40
impressed ryan
55:43
can a den of fi and andrew mccarthy
55:45
a lot several months ago it's and
55:48
alarmed if really i don't know
55:50
it ranges on sunday mornings when i really
55:52
think he needs a wasn't a the spot i've read i read
55:54
the hill day or every day of the we started
55:57
out as they would so president it is that
55:59
like as you said
55:59
the national review take i would start
56:02
having any mccarthy is one of my thoughts but the fact
56:04
that any mccarthy in the hill yeah
56:06
which was just they publish trash
56:08
and attorney ,
56:11
know that is know that okay for ratings
56:13
on this one because he decided
56:16
not to do here is the legal
56:18
case why trump shouldn't be prosecuted but did the
56:20
he might guilty but it'll tear the apart
56:23
that's get meta i'm i'm at
56:25
like three and a half i'm at three and a half on
56:27
that
56:28
the
56:29
i want band to go first
56:31
i'm still thinking i'm gonna say two
56:33
and a half just because we're doing enterprises
56:35
right rules here of arms and
56:38
i want to leave room for some full play box later
56:40
on but it's it's a bad was in particularly
56:42
stupid takes
56:45
the in my mind you get more politicos
56:48
as you get more silly
56:51
or troll you barrel homeless
56:53
death ah moxie yeah
56:55
this isn't like a different family of
56:58
like really offered in
57:00
good faith like running interference for
57:03
republicans cause it's pretty clear
57:05
that any mccarthy's really worried that
57:07
if trump gets prosecuted the really
57:10
give a shit what happens to trump he does he
57:12
know that that will reflect poorly on the right
57:14
and republicans and you
57:17
know if it was
57:19
david brooks or somebody making the same point
57:21
which
57:22
we'll get to at some point i'm certain i'd
57:24
give it three four that
57:27
i'm gonna give this one too because
57:30
it's it's it's it's not coming from a place it's wrong
57:32
it's coming from a place of fear and
57:35
gotcha i mean brine do you think is gonna get prosecuted
57:38
do you think about know he should
57:41
should
57:42
you know who don't think he's gonna get prosecuted more likely
57:44
than not is this week's positively
57:46
dreadful guest our
57:49
i'm a mirror girl intercept not suffer
57:53
for , a good or better voters
57:56
are just died at maybe i should maybe the hanging maybe
57:58
people would think that our the attorney don't know
58:01
i guess , week was pete struck
58:04
struck wow and and we got
58:06
to talk all about this basic
58:08
issue plus surrounding issues the
58:10
complexity of charging former
58:13
president whether it makes sense
58:15
to approach the investigation
58:17
away merrick garland has or not from
58:20
ah from a guy who has
58:23
you're one of the few people the country who was done investigations
58:25
along these lines it
58:28
was very interesting conversation that's great yeah
58:30
employer into employer n n know i just
58:32
gave away the stupid the show
58:34
is that he thinks just too much criminal
58:37
activity out there in there open to for
58:40
from two hundred zero indictments the
58:42
rebellion is media firemen brand you have
58:44
to put you have to put the best scenes israel
58:46
has that especially especially if the
58:48
ponderous judge or who runs
58:50
the or jays listening subset of us
58:53
, to make sure he tunes that's or it allows
58:55
you got one more force yes i do occur of
58:57
big know here to ask how how do you guys think the segment
59:00
is going so this
59:05
is , in such large spots
59:08
the hiding his guys just cooking food
59:10
gets think it's going to this
59:13
is the best take appreciate it if ever there
59:15
are just as of now that you know that are i was
59:17
a very nathan fielder sort of move right there
59:20
have , like as a realises
59:22
have been assessed as a lot
59:24
of a ride on reversals have a my house i
59:26
mean so ah alright so
59:28
this last one is true take appreciate
59:31
his takes it's not takes
59:33
you're take per se so
59:36
this is from the a p a rare
59:38
offender on the segment a piece titled
59:40
election skeptics rise
59:43
in g o p races to run
59:45
state elections how
59:47
this piece as a valet really intense elections
59:49
in ours are winning primaries as you
59:51
as discusses news segment of references dog
59:53
mastery i know it references mark sentiment
59:56
arizona his balls others as
59:58
a recap our offense or part
1:00:00
of the oath keepers and was outlawed sex
1:00:03
riot my guess is that don't
1:00:05
have case for you this language here's a quote
1:00:07
election experts say candidates who
1:00:09
dispute the results of a valid election
1:00:11
and which there's no evidence of widespread
1:00:14
fraud or manipulation voting systems pose
1:00:16
a danger from interfering in future
1:00:18
elections they warn a could trigger chaos
1:00:20
if they refuse to accept results they don't like
1:00:24
where think of that kind of reporting
1:00:26
good
1:00:28
yeah to that election of the experts man
1:00:31
that if you are if you deny
1:00:33
an election and one overturn it that could be bad
1:00:36
yeah as a
1:00:38
a
1:00:40
mostly retired reporter i
1:00:44
feel a little
1:00:45
i feel a little for whoever broke
1:00:47
the story through the zeke can
1:00:49
, get off of this said
1:00:52
no not at all is
1:00:54
disease is always hard to tell from
1:00:56
the store and you're right it depending
1:00:59
on the byline on the i wanna take it back for the but
1:01:01
ah but know whether
1:01:03
the instinct and the pressure
1:01:06
to couch all that
1:01:08
one hundred voices of experts instead
1:01:10
of just saying with obviously true could
1:01:13
have been pressure on them by the
1:01:15
company or their editor or whatever
1:01:17
they're stupid rules are tried
1:01:20
, them election skeptics is also a that
1:01:22
that cut out your either other story
1:01:24
gravity skeptic injured after walking
1:01:26
out of a second for for specific
1:01:29
gravity experts say that walking onto
1:01:31
the second story window without believing
1:01:33
gravity could kitty officer
1:01:35
either sir isaac newton claimed what a what
1:01:39
john it was not as easy as well as a as
1:01:42
a hero does so you don't
1:01:44
know them married with married to the
1:01:46
system for a to rare founders
1:01:50
one hundred their have lower little rough
1:01:53
the mere so in a p were in and i also
1:01:55
you go what he's a politico said saw
1:01:57
bob christie and cast him as her
1:01:59
family
1:01:59
i don't know and they're not even those are
1:02:02
needed that , others are up but others
1:02:04
are those are far as or dallied generated
1:02:08
like i remember what
1:02:11
reporting sound climate change was like ten fifteen
1:02:13
years ago and it was all like this it was all reporters
1:02:16
who knew that climate change was a
1:02:19
real thing arm and that
1:02:21
essentially knew what it's effects would be if left unchecked
1:02:24
but always compelled by
1:02:26
the sort of
1:02:27
you know that the rules of the of
1:02:29
the outlets they worked for to
1:02:32
pray that is experts our climate experts
1:02:34
say it
1:02:35
care that off the
1:02:38
some industry group saying it's own it's all over blogs
1:02:41
and it was a tenure process or
1:02:43
of like bullying
1:02:45
the mainstream outlets out of doing that and just basically
1:02:48
saying you can't leave
1:02:49
settled science
1:02:51
he said she said framework an
1:02:53
unfortunate faith active during the same thing
1:02:56
for ah for democracy
1:02:58
and there's like the timelines much shorter
1:03:00
the i work i remain a skeptic
1:03:03
that bobbing christie a real people but if are
1:03:05
this is likely not their fault it's the fault
1:03:07
of their editors in the associated press's
1:03:10
absurd , sides his own balance
1:03:12
over accuracy sort of approach by
1:03:15
so when we were attacked him personally but the as
1:03:17
you can't call the election skeptic
1:03:19
is that as a
1:03:21
serious offense and i get for a foreplay
1:03:24
about what is a one for one for bob and christie
1:03:27
three , the address epithet
1:03:29
activists for a full playbook
1:03:31
