00:07

Melania a very happy birthday be nice to

00:10

00:12

a RI trial it's a RI trial terrible but

00:15

we're doing very well in this rig Tri

00:17

everybody knows it wow yeah it must be

00:20

really hard to be away from your wife on

00:21

her birthday while you're stuck in court

00:23

hey remind us Donald why are you on

00:25

trial right now might it have something

00:27

to do with the fact that while Melania

00:28

was at home you had multiple Affairs

00:31

including with Stormy Daniels and Karen

00:32

McDougall and then in an effort to hide

00:34

those Affairs and keep them quiet so

00:36

they wouldn't hurt you during the 2016

00:37

election you falsified business records

00:40

to hide the hush money payouts from the

00:41

American people so I don't know maybe

00:44

not the best moment to try to use

00:45

Melania to Curry sympathy from people

00:47

because simply enough if you weren't

00:49

screwing porn stars and Playmates you

00:51

would be at home with your wife right

00:52

now it's definitely important that we uh

00:55

don't become desensitized to the

00:57

absolute absurdity of this I think the

00:59

majority of Americans I mean we know if

01:00

you look at the last few elections the

01:02

majority of Americans are democratic

01:04

voters uh the majority of Voters are

01:06

Democrats and I think they look at this

01:08

and they see a person who engaged in

01:10

ridiculous inappropriate conduct and is

01:13

being held accountable for it I don't

01:15

think we should lose sight of also that

01:17

this is the so-called family values

01:19

candidate that is on trial for

01:21

reportedly sleeping with a an adult film

01:24

actress while his wife was at home

01:25

pregnant with his child that is the

01:28

family values candidate and the

01:29

so-called Law and Order candidate is the

01:31

one that's the first former president to

01:34

ever face criminal charges I think I

01:36

think most people see it I think most

01:38

people see that his conduct is

01:39

unacceptable and that he's being held

01:41

accountable for it of course Trump will

01:43

leverage anyone to whine about this

01:44

trial just last week he used his son so

01:47

thank you very much uh we had some

01:50

amazing things happen today as you know

01:53

my son is graduated from high school and

01:55

it looks like the judge will not let me

01:57

go to the graduation of my son who

02:00

worked very very hard and he's a great

02:03

student and he's very proud of the fact

02:05

that he did so well and was looking

02:08

forward for years to have graduation

02:11

with his mother and father there and it

02:12

looks like the judg isn't going to allow

02:14

me to escape this scam it's a scam trial

02:18

if you read all of the legal pundits all

02:20

of the legal Scholars today there's not

02:22

one that I see it said this is a case

02:25

that should be brought or Tri it's a

02:27

scam it's a political WI sh it continues

02:31

and it continues forever and we're not

02:34

going to be given a fair trial it's a

02:35

very very sad thing first of all to

02:38

broadcast just how full of it Trump is

02:40

the judge literally hadn't even ruled on

02:43

whether or not Trump could attend

02:44

Baron's graduation but Trump was so

02:46

desperate to frame himself as the victim

02:48

that he was already exploiting his son

02:50

to Curry pity for himself second if

02:52

judge Maran does rule that Trump can't

02:54

attend maybe Donald will explain to his

02:56

son that he was busy sleeping with other

02:58

women and paying them off for their

02:59

silence and then cooking the books to

03:01

cover up those payments and that's why

03:03

he won't be able to attend the

03:04

graduation because as far as I can tell

03:06

this isn't judge M's fault it's Trump's

03:09

and finally again even if michan does

03:11

rule that Trump can't attend yeah dude

03:14

that's how it works when you commit

03:16

crimes and you have to stand trial for

03:18

them you sacrifice other things in your

03:20

life that might also be important that's

03:23

perhaps a reason not to commit crimes

03:25

but he's not going to Curry sympathy

03:26

from the judge because he has other

03:28

obligations when he decides to break the

03:30

law maybe next time Trump should think

03:32

about what he'll have to sacrifice by

03:33

virtue of his criminal activity and that

03:35

will perhaps be a reason to not do it

03:38

and when he's not using Melania or Baron

03:40

as part of his pity parties it's this

03:42

excuse this is what took me off and

03:44

takes me off the campaign Trail because

03:47

I should be in Georgia now I should be

03:50

in Florida now I should be in a lot of

03:51

different places right now campaigning

03:53

and I'm sitting here and this will go

03:56

for a long time it's very unfair that

03:58

he's stuck in the courtroom and not on

03:59

the campaign Trail well Donald Trump has

04:02

Wednesdays off from court so you would

04:04

think that after all this complaining

04:06

that he can't be in Georgia or North

04:07

Carolina or Florida he would spend his

04:10

Wednesday mingling with voters right not

04:13

so much here's what Trump did on

04:14

Wednesday this week that's right he was

04:17

golfing no voters in sight just Donald

04:20

Trump secluded on the golf course only

04:22

days mere days after he whed in public

04:25

that he wouldn't have any time with his

04:27

supporters who he clearly cares so much

04:29

about it's almost like and I hope you're

04:31

sitting down for this Trump is just

04:33

grasping for straws and looking for

04:34

literally any excuse not to be in the

04:36

courtroom and by the way even if Trump

04:38

actually did want to go to campaign in

04:40

Georgia or Florida or North Carolina

04:42

it's worth repeating this point if you

04:43

want a clear schedule don't commit

04:45

crimes it is not the judge's problem

04:48

that you can't do things that someone

04:49

who is not a criminal defendant can do

04:52

if you want full freedom to live your

04:53

life then don't commit felonies and

04:55

you'll have no problem but Trump who I

04:57

should remind you is a grown ass man

04:59

made the conscious decision to break the

05:01

law and now comes the part where he's

05:02

held accountable for it which shouldn't

05:04

be a foreign concept for someone who

05:06

leads the political party that Brands

05:07

itself the Law and Order party and yet

05:10

here we are or finally at the very

05:12

bottom of the list of desperate excuses

05:14

there's this so we have another day of

05:18

court in a freezing Courthouse it's very

05:20

cold in there for on purpose I believe

05:24

they don't seem to be able to get the

05:25

temperature up it shouldn't be that

05:27

complicated but we have a freezing Court

05:30

and that's fine that's just fine let him

05:33

keep handing it out there's a r trial

05:35

that it's too cold I mean my God is

05:38

there anything this guy won't complain

05:39

about and I'm sorry but this is the

05:41

Republican strongman this is the alpha

05:43

tough guy get him in the room with the

05:45

world's autocrats the guy complaining

05:46

that he's too chilly didn't he grow up

05:49

in New York pretty sure Manhattan in

05:51

December or January is colder than a

05:53

courthouse in April unless of course

05:55

you're a Pampered Primadonna who never

05:56

has a moment of discomfort something all

05:58

of Trump's supporters should probably

05:59

remember the next time he tries to frame

06:01

himself as a man of the people this guy

06:03

is so insulated from real America from

06:05

real life from the discomforts of

06:07

everyday life that in the single

06:09

instance that he's not surrounded by

06:11

luxury he melts down like a Kardashian

06:13

who broke a nail so look Donald Trump

06:16

will whine and complain he'll stomp his

06:17

feet and throw his temper tantrums but

06:19

no one forced him to make illegal

06:21

campaign contributions to Stormy Daniels

06:23

to keep their Affair quiet so it

06:24

wouldn't hurt his chances of running for

06:26

office and then cook the books that was

06:28

him just like no one asked to call

06:29

Georgia Secretary of State briad

06:31

raffensberger to conjure up 11,780

06:34

non-existent votes no one asked him to

06:35

seal classified documents from the White

06:37

House and lie about having already

06:38

returned them no one asked him to

06:40

falsify business records and issue false

06:42

financial statements and engage in bank

06:43

and tax fraud in New York he did all of

06:46

those things on his own so if he's being

06:48

prosecuted now Donald Trump has no one

06:50

to blame but himself and the fact that I

06:52

have to explain that to the leader of a

06:53

party that Brands itself the party of

06:55

personal responsibility really puts the

06:58

hypocrisy on full display so at this

07:00

point there is nothing that Trump can do

07:01

to avoid sitting in the courtroom but if

07:03

he's suddenly so concerned about being a

07:05

good husband and a good father maybe

07:07

actually try being a good husband and a

07:09

good father of course we all recognize

07:11

that that's not what he's trying to do

07:12

he's simply exploiting his family

07:14

members to try and Curry sympathy and

07:15

donations from the Rubes who buy his

07:17

Saab story he's made a career conning

07:19

his contractors his employees his

07:22

friends his AIDS his associates his

07:24

cabinet members his supporters and he's

07:25

using his own family to do more of the

07:27

same the problem here isn't everyone
