00:00Thank you, thank you, it's Friday, so you know what that means, Britt Hume's khakis are already in the lobby.
00:25Let's welcome tonight's guest, he loves to taunt Governor Hochul by moving his face, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin.
00:38The only thing bigger than her in the 90s was Carney Wilson, host of Kennedy Saves the World, podcast Kennedy.
00:47He thinks the Pottery Barn catalog shows too much skin, Fox News contributor Tom Shalhoub.
00:55And you can't keep her down unless she's trapped under a feather.
01:00New York Times bestselling author of Fox News contributor captive.
01:05All right, before we get to some news stories, let's do this.
01:11Greg's Leftovers.
01:12It's Leftovers.
01:16Well, I read the jokes we didn't use this week, and as always, it's my first time reading them.
01:20So if they suck, we'll send Joe Mackey to a Manhattan mosque with 300 pulled pork sandwiches.
01:29Investigators say they're closer than ever to solving the mystery of Amelia Earhart's plane crash.
01:34Turns out, it was piloted by a woman.
01:40According to a new study, roughly two-thirds of Americans have planned their funerals, and some have even planned others' funerals.
01:50The Democrats were mocked after their government shutdown livestream only attracted 400 viewers.
01:57Or as CNN calls it, ratings gold.
02:04Kamala Harris said she asked Bill and Hillary Clinton for running mate advice before choosing Tim Waltz.
02:12They reminded her wisely that the best safeguard against assassination is a VP who's an idiot.
02:23It's true.
02:24Bill also told her to pick someone who, quote, might have to swallow a lot of crap.
02:34Well, that's the first time I've heard it called that.
02:39An Alabama man set a world record for having a beard that's three and a half feet long.
02:44Your move, Rashida.
02:45A massive blast at a Chevron refinery in California produced enormous flames visible for miles.
02:54Usually to produce a blast of that magnitude, you'd have to pull this man's finger.
03:01On October 5th, 1,200 people will run the International Taco Bell Ultramarathon,
03:07where competitors stop and eat at nine Taco Bells.
03:10Nice.
03:12Or you could just stay home and s*** in your pants on a treadmill.
03:18According to a new study, one in five pet owners carry at least two grand in debt from taking care of their beloved animals.
03:25And that number triples when you include doctor's bills from retrieving them out of your ass.
03:30I don't get it.
03:36Sonny Hossin said it's odd that Pete Hegseth wants tougher physical standards in the military.
03:41Yeah, easy for her to say.
03:43She's the only one on the view who can still see her feet.
03:49Maxwell House Coffee has a new brand called Maxwell Apartment.
03:54To better reflect where most drinkers live.
03:56They also plan to put out a blend for San Francisco named Maxwell Underpass and Tarp.
04:09Has a nice ring to it.
04:12Major comedians are being slammed for taking money from Saudi Arabia to perform at the Riyadh Comedy Festival.
04:18The royals over there love it, even though every show has a four wife minimum.
04:21Kelly Ripa had to reach down into a cleavage after a microphone fell down there on air.
04:31A similar incident happened to Anna Navarro, but while retrieving it, they discovered three illegals.
04:39An American flight turned into a nightmare after a passenger in the middle seat changed a diaper.
04:44Hey, when you gotta go, you gotta go, said the stinky culprit.
04:47Researchers say waiting in line is actually good for your brain.
04:53Huh.
04:53No wonder people at Kilmeade's book signing are so dumb.
05:00That's funny.
05:02According to the New York Post, President Trump's son, Barron, shut down a whole floor of Trump Tower for a date.
05:08It's quite a change from the Bidens.
05:10After Hunter had a date, hazmat shut down the whole floor.
05:13Finally, a pond in Queens has lost 94% of its depth over the past few years, making it the second most shallow thing in New York.
05:24So, Harvard just hired a drag performer as a visiting professor who goes by the name Lahore Vajistan.
05:44Which, coincidentally, is Larry Kudlow's real name.
05:48Yeah, before he came to America.
05:50Now, Lahore will teach a course or two, but one wonders what the final exam will be.
05:55Maybe instead of open book, it'll be open pants.
05:58So, why even bring it up?
06:00Well, it's part of the reason Trump is changing things.
06:03Harvard, among others, gets huge endowments of government money.
06:06And what do they do with it?
06:07They indoctrinate and discriminate.
06:10This crap doesn't belong in a taxpayer-supported institution.
06:13It belongs in brunch.
06:14So, it was awesome news this week when Trump got Harvard to spend $500 million to launch and operate trade schools after he had temporarily frozen $2.4 billion in federal grants.
06:27So, now when you graduate from Harvard, you can get a real job.
06:32And even better, Harvard's football team may finally beat those brutes in Pop Warner.
06:36So, Mr. P, is it something you're close to finalizing?
06:42This is something that we're close to finalizing.
06:45We haven't done it yet.
06:47But they put up $500 million interest and everything else would go to that account, meaning go to the trade school.
06:55And, you know, it's a big investment in trade school, done by very smart people.
07:00And then their sins are forgiven.
07:03They're going to be teaching people how to do AI and lots of other things.
07:07Engines.
07:08Lots of things.
07:09You know, we need people in trade schools.
07:11Engines.
07:12Think of the implications.
07:14Where the real status symbol isn't a PhD in grievance studies.
07:18It's a diesel mechanics certificate.
07:21You will actually learn to build, not tear down.
07:24And it comes with something those other degrees don't.
07:27And honest days work.
07:29So Trump is making academia great again.
07:31The solution was simple.
07:32Cut off the federal money until academia delivers the goods.
07:36We could be entering a new gilded age.
07:38Except instead of robber barons, we'll have rebar barons.
07:44Instead of giant debt, no skills.
07:46We'll have jobs that can pay the bills.
07:49And he's exposing leftists at the same time.
07:51Remember how much they love class warfare, inflaming the difference between one economic
07:56group with another?
07:57So you'd think Harvard creating trade schools would be embraced by the media for white and
08:02blue collar finally joined together.
08:04But nope.
08:05And why?
08:06Because even though class warfare is easy propaganda from a tenured perch, a plumber or an electrician
08:12isn't going to buy that.
08:14It's funny.
08:15While we focused on Trump building a border wall, he's tearing down others.
08:19And this trade school move ridicules Harvard's snobbery, mocking the elitist currency that
08:24a diploma became.
08:26It's really nothing more than the chance to rub elbows with other rich brats.
08:31But it gets even better.
08:32For decades, the left did what they did to any institution.
08:35They replaced principle with politics.
08:38Instead of learning, you had obeying.
08:39Instead of merit, you got discrimination.
08:42Instead of developing nuclear fusion, they gave us diversity, equity, and inclusion.
08:47That's changing, too.
08:49The White House just told several colleges if they want federal money, they better agree
08:52to certain things, like banning the use of race or sex in admissions.
08:57They left out my clause, which would deny admission to co-eds who are a seven or lower.
09:05But I'll take what I can get.
09:08So where does this all lead?
09:09Well, the new Ivy League power couple won't be hedge funders.
09:12It'll be a dude who can wire your house and a chick who can build one.
09:16And soon parents will be saying proudly, my son went to Harvard.
09:19And when someone asks law or business, they'll reply, hell no.
09:23He's got a real job.
09:24He's a welder.
09:25Lee, isn't this a great, great thing?
09:38Because it accomplishes something and it rubs Harvard's nose in it at the same time.
09:45Here, you've got to do these trade schools and you're not so special.
09:48So it's a brilliant idea by President Trump.
09:51Color me skeptical as far as how much Harvard's going to buy into it.
09:54And if you're trying to look at some of Harvard's recent decisions and try to get an idea, a
09:59clue as to where Harvard wants to take their university, they're hiring Lahore Vagistan.
10:04So this kind of feels like Babylon Bee University maybe or the Onion University, except this isn't
10:10satire.
10:11As you pointed out, this is a leftist indoctrination camp.
10:14And as an award, if you go to a high school somewhere in America and you're valedictorian
10:20number one in your class and you earn an acceptance into Harvard University in return, now what
10:26separates you from your peers?
10:27Well, you went to a gender ethnography class by Lahore Vagistan and that's what separates
10:34you from your peers.
10:35And by the way, if you're looking at a resume and on that class you got an A, I don't know
10:40if that helps your qualification for the job.
10:42Because the only way to get an A in one of these classes is probably sell out what is
10:46left, right, up, down, Chevy, Ford.
10:49You have to buy into all of that.
10:51So I probably want to know that the person who's interviewing for that job in front of
10:55me got an F and that would say something about them.
10:58So yeah, Harvard's going in the wrong direction with all the clues they're giving.
11:01President Trump is showing them the light.
11:03Harvard can get their reputation right back on track, but color me skeptical.
11:07All right, I'll color you whatever I want, Lee.
11:09I don't know about you, but if I was taking Lahore's class, I'd rather get a D.
11:15I don't know about you, Kennedy, but I think we should get our troops out of Vagistan.
11:21You're going to need a mighty big speculum for that, Greg.
11:24So if you're going into the trades, it's a good move.
11:35It's a solid move.
11:35Mike Rowe has been talking about this for the better part of 15 years.
11:39He raises so much money to send people to trade schools.
11:45And a lot of times there are programs that will pay your tuition.
11:47You come out of there with no student debt and you earn an average like $75,000, $80,000
11:53a year.
11:54That's actually a better option than going to Harvard, hating everyone who is teaching
11:59your classes, who intrinsically hates you.
12:03And then you're stuck with a $400,000 bill for your undergrad.
12:06Because Harvard, all in, room and board and tuition, $95,000 a year.
12:11So it's like, you're spending $400,000 a year to learn how to be a welder.
12:16Why not just cut out the snobby Long Island lockjaw middleman and go to a trade school?
12:23Because like Matt Damon said, you could get that same education in the public library for
12:2850 cents.
12:29How about them apples?
12:30Those are great apples.
12:32Yeah.
12:36How about them apples?
12:38That's a core curriculum.
12:39So, Tom, you know what I love about this stuff and about Trump in general and why I have such
12:50a disdain for the old school Republicans and conservatives that we kind of grew up on?
12:54They always wrote books and they complained about the left-wing cesspool of academia,
12:59but they never did anything about it.
13:01No.
13:02They never did any.
13:03They never did this.
13:04Maybe William F. Buckley tried.
13:06But like all the people that we knew, you know, they're like, oh, they're never Trumpers
13:10now, but they never figured this out.
13:13Let me write another paper about this.
13:14Yeah.
13:15Yeah.
13:15I can't believe it.
13:16A drag queen, professors.
13:19In my day, I'm old fashioned.
13:21Really?
13:21Yeah.
13:21We had.
13:22I thought you lived on the edge.
13:23No, no.
13:24When I went to college, professors were white males who hit on their 19-year-old students.
13:30Right.
13:31I'm old fashioned that way.
13:33They did it.
13:33They cashed in their white privilege.
13:35Now they're leaving all the cards on the table.
13:38But, you know, I looked this up.
13:39Hundred billion dollars colleges get in research money.
13:43When I first saw this, I was like, oh, this is another Trump thing.
13:45He's kind of trolling the colleges.
13:47But you know what?
13:48This is like another issue where I think, why not?
13:51Like, Trump kind of opened my eyes to this.
13:53I say cut off the funding.
13:54These schools, it's like, I don't need affirmative action for professors.
13:58But there's no conservatives in these schools.
14:00It's like 98.2% of the professors are left wing.
14:05These colleges are completely ridiculous.
14:08I would cut off all the funding.
14:09No grants at all.
14:10Let them get their funding.
14:12Half of the funding comes from the government.
14:14$100 billion, $50 billion comes from the government.
14:17Cut it all off.
14:17Just like PBS.
14:18You're done.
14:19Yeah.
14:20Cut it all off.
14:26Like Lahore Vagestam.
14:27Yeah.
14:28So, Kat, I'm trying to envision you going to, would you, if you could choose a trade school,
14:34have you thought about this?
14:36Yes.
14:38No, I actually think that no one should want to attend a Harvard trade school.
14:43Really?
14:43Like, why?
14:43Why go to a Harvard trade school?
14:45It's just more expensive, more pretentious.
14:48And honestly, I, the last thing I want to do is invite somebody pretentious into my home
14:54to look at my clogged toilet.
14:56Yes.
14:57They would use so many great words from the thesaurus to describe the clog.
15:01No, it'd be, could you imagine, like, listen, you know how bad it is.
15:04Like, you've got, like, a situation in your toilet.
15:07And you've had that moment where you realize you can't handle this yourself.
15:11Yes.
15:12And, like, you have to, you're like, I gotta make the phone call.
15:16I gotta make the phone call.
15:17You do not, you do not want that person showing up to be an Ivy League grad.
15:21Yes.
15:21Like, dressed like Lee Zeldin.
15:23Yes.
15:23Like, you know, they have, like, a copy of Finnegan's Wake in their toolbox.
15:31I'd be like, you get out of here right now.
15:35They're quoting Sylvia Plath as they're plunging.
15:37Yeah, you don't want that person in your bathroom when you've got a situation in there.
15:42Is there a word, I bet there's a word that describes that feeling you get when you're
15:47hoping that the water goes down.
15:49Yeah.
15:49And it's going up.
15:51I bet, see, that plumber would know.
15:53Yeah.
15:53There'd be some, like, weird, obscure word, oh, that's you, that's not a Cinebop.
15:57That's, like, because, like, you think it's okay.
16:00If you hadn't had a 40 of Miller Lite in the last 11 hours, I don't want to hire you.
16:04Yeah.
16:09I am that way with my Uber driver.
16:14Up next, Trump's hilarious AI memes.
16:18Tonight on We Don't Deserve Him, President Trump is once again trolling Dems with more
16:22AI-generated memes.
16:25First, a parody of the classic song, Don't Fear the Reaper, featuring Trump's budget hawk,
16:31Russ Voigt.
16:31Russ Voigt is the Reaper.
16:34He wields a pen, the guns, and the brain.
16:37Here comes the Reaper.
16:39Down to your babies.
16:41Here comes the Reaper.
16:42Then, in another AI video, he put a Trump 2028 hat on Hakeem.
16:49Okay.
16:50That's better than any Oscar-winning movie.
16:52I need to see that just one more time from the beginning.
16:55All right, Kennedy.
17:04Hi.
17:04How are you?
17:05Hey, Burr.
17:06Why is it that the right can effortlessly, not say the word effortlessly, do this sort of
17:14thing?
17:15And that is, you know, Trump's staff and just people on X, but the left can't figure this
17:20out.
17:20There are no left-wing memes, and I've looked for them.
17:22Yes, it's because the left is so self-serious and so emotional, and being serious and emotional
17:30means that you naturally have an allergy to anything funny or fun.
17:35And, you know, conservatives have realized for a long time, you know, as long as there
17:39has been authors like P.J. O'Rourke, God rest his soul, that it is so much fun trolling
17:43people and making them mad.
17:45It's so easy to do.
17:48It's so predictable, the reaction.
17:50And as long as you're comfortable with that, it's actually quite, quite joyful.
17:54And, you know, going to the Fear the Reaper meme, I'm looking at that going, oh, welcome
18:00to being a libertarian.
18:01Yeah.
18:01Like, you know, this is what we've wanted to do with entire departments and government
18:05programs and the federal budget for decades and probably millennia.
18:09And I'm delighted that there are Republicans who have discovered this.
18:14And it's funny because you can call it something else.
18:17You can call it, you know, a reduction in workforce or whatever.
18:20It's just doging.
18:22And I think it's lovely.
18:23Yeah.
18:24You know, Tom, as a racist, it must be refreshing to see all of this happening.
18:32You know, no, I'm kidding.
18:34But I mean, it's like when he's throwing this obrero, it's not just a joke or a meme.
18:39It's basically telling the Democrats that your tool of branding us as racist for everything
18:45is somehow worn off because you called everything racist.
18:49Now, we don't care.
18:51It's like, that's racist.
18:51No, it's not.
18:52It's just a obrero.
18:53Yeah, I know.
18:53And you labeled it as AI, but we didn't need the AI because you can totally tell it's fake
18:58because Trump is laughing.
19:00He never laughs that hard in his life.
19:02He's having more fun than he's ever had in reality.
19:06And you know what I love about these memes?
19:08Like, now they're actually just politically incorrect for no reason.
19:12Exactly.
19:13Hakeem Jeffries has got a sombrero on.
19:15He's not even Mexican.
19:16I know.
19:16It makes, it almost makes no sense.
19:18No, it's perfect though because they're like, that's racist.
19:20They're like, why?
19:20Why is it racist?
19:21We got to keep this up.
19:23We got to like make it politically incorrect, but get the wrong race every time.
19:26Like, Elon Omar, put her in a Russian hat and she's doing like the Kosek dance.
19:32It's like, you can't complain.
19:34Yeah, it's like, that's racist.
19:35Against who?
19:36And also, if they think it's racist, that means they don't like the sombrero, which makes
19:39them racist.
19:40Yes!
19:41Kat, is this a kind of a weird breakout moment?
19:44Like, we're kind of like breaking, like, it's another wall that came down.
19:48You can't mess with us anymore.
19:49Or are you, we're not scared?
19:51I think that happened a long time ago.
19:54Yeah.
19:55You know, it's funny.
19:56You see this and you imagine like the midterms has, haven't even happened yet.
19:59Yeah.
20:00And it's like, usually after the midterms, the second term president, you'll see them
20:03kind of just like say and do whatever, but he's been kind of saying and doing whatever
20:07the whole time.
20:08We had to catch up.
20:09So great, but could it get more?
20:11Yeah.
20:12That's what I, I'm, could it get more?
20:14And I don't even need to say more what of, because you guys don't know what I'm talking
20:17about.
20:17Yeah.
20:18Put it.
20:18I honestly don't know.
20:19Yeah.
20:20I honestly don't know.
20:20You know, Lee, the Dems keep freaking out.
20:23Then they try to do their own memes.
20:25Hakeem tried and they were just painful.
20:27Just painful.
20:29Is it because they're coming from, they're coming from the position of absurdity?
20:33So it's hard to find truth in anything.
20:35They can't make a joke.
20:36They can't take a joke.
20:38And, you know, and I would say, by the way, you know, being here as the administrative
20:42EPA, a very important announcement, maybe a Fox News alert is that every day the Democrats
20:48continue this Schumer shutdown, that sombrero is going to get 10 feet higher.
20:55When they put out, you know, they then put the sombrero and a mustache on J.D.
21:00Yeah.
21:00And they think that, like, they're getting us back.
21:03And meanwhile, like, if it's funny, like, J.D.
21:05Vance will laugh his ass off because we can make a joke and we can take a joke.
21:10And now, like, the contrast that's starting to exist between conservatives and liberals
21:14right now.
21:15We've seen it all.
21:16You covered it here about wanting our streets to be safe or a border to be some more secure.
21:20Boys shouldn't be competing against girls sports.
21:22But all of a sudden, like, with humor.
21:24Yeah.
21:24Like, the other side is just, they've lost it.
21:28And they will seriously be saying that President Trump is Adolf Hitler.
21:33And if you support him, that makes you a fascist.
21:36And they will push rhetoric that will lead to actual political violence.
21:41And they'll do it all seriously.
21:42Yeah.
21:43And then when there's punishment, they'll be like, oh, no, you guys can't take a joke.
21:45Like, no, because it's not funny.
21:47Now, as far as what the president's posting, now, that's f***ing funny.
21:50Yeah.
21:51Yeah.
21:51You know, it's...
21:53It leads me to a point, and then I'll move on, which is that the media doesn't help the
22:00Democrats because they set up these segments like, have you seen the sombrero meme?
22:06It's like Caitlin Collins, like, we're going to show you the sombrero meme.
22:10I purposely waited till today.
22:12I purposely stayed ignorant on whatever this was about.
22:15Yeah, but it's awesome.
22:17It's like, please, if you have kids in the room, we're going to show a very disturbing...
22:22But then they are like...
22:24So they're upset about a sombrero meme, but they were okay with Hitler and fascists for
22:29six years.
22:30I will echo what Lee said and say, go f*** yourself.
22:34Up next, the return...
22:36Mission to Gaza.
22:37Watch.
22:38My name is Kevin Jimba.
22:39I'm a citizen of Sweden.
22:40If you are watching this video, I have been abducted and taken against my will by Israeli
22:45forces.
22:46Our humanitarian mission was non-violent and abiding by international law.
22:51Please tell my government to demand my and the others' immediate release.
22:57Thankfully, the Swedes now treat her like defective furniture from Ikea.
23:02A broken mess with a few screws loose.
23:05Here's one Swedish journalist responding.
23:07My name is Joakim Lamott, and I'm a Swedish citizen.
23:13If you see this video, Greta Thunberg has been abducted by Israeli forces.
23:18And I have a message from the Swedish people to the Israeli government.
23:23Please keep her.
23:25We have had her so many years in Sweden, and we cannot stand it anymore.
23:29So you are doing us a really big favor right now.
23:32Thank you very much.
23:34Tom, isn't that great?
23:40He said everything.
23:42I love the accent.
23:43It's like, I love a Swedish right winger.
23:47Greta Thunberg, you got to say this for her.
23:49She's not wasting her donor money.
23:52She walks the walk.
23:53She cuts her own hair without a mirror.
23:56She's like, I'm Greta Thunberg.
23:59Speak of donor money.
24:00Well, go ahead.
24:00Why is she getting so old?
24:02She used to be a little kid.
24:03I know.
24:04That's what happens when you're a miserable troll.
24:06I know.
24:07She was a cute little Shirley Temple.
24:09Now she looks like Kathy Bates in Misery.
24:13That's very...
24:14She went from saving the trees to hating the Jews.
24:18That is so true.
24:19She did go from saving the trees to hating the Jews.
24:21It was only a matter of time before she got that haircut.
24:24But that haircut.
24:25For that haircut.
24:26Yeah.
24:26You know what I call those?
24:27What?
24:28Medicare for all bangs.
24:32Right?
24:33You got those bangs.
24:34I know where you stand on that.
24:35Yeah.
24:36But it is interesting.
24:37It's like she was the darling of the climate change movement, Kat.
24:41And then she just, on the boat, she's thrown her cell phones into the ocean, just like she
24:46did the issue.
24:47Right.
24:48Look, I think it's a noble goal to want to bring aid to a war-torn country.
24:54Okay?
24:54The thing about a war-torn country, though, is that the war-tornedness of it, I'm an expert,
25:01it makes it dangerous.
25:04Yeah.
25:04So I feel like everyone on this boat had to expect that this was going to happen.
25:08It was a PR stunt.
25:09Right?
25:09I mean, nobody thought they were actually going to make it.
25:12And also, I don't think there were any supplies on the boat.
25:14According to, I guess, Israeli police, they boarded it.
25:18They found nothing.
25:18So it was just a PR stunt.
25:22And, by the way, do we still know who funded all this?
25:26I mean, I think we know.
25:28It's an empty boat.
25:29So that donation didn't get that far.
25:32The first time Greta went to Gaza, we didn't care.
25:36Then she went to Gaza again, and we didn't care.
25:38And she just went to Gaza again.
25:41And we still don't care.
25:42But the last time that she went, the Israeli military gave her a sandwich.
25:48Yes.
25:48So this time she came back.
25:49She brought some friends.
25:50The problem with Greta not really understanding how this all works is that she went on Yom Kippur.
25:56And all the Jews are fasting.
25:57Yeah.
25:58So this time she didn't even get her sandwich.
26:00Aww.
26:03She is so adorably anti-Semitic, Kennedy.
26:08She looks like Tobey Maguire in a bad wig.
26:13But what does it say that you can just get out of one costume of a social issue and get into another costume of a social issue?
26:23It says they don't mean anything.
26:25Yeah.
26:25They say they don't have any convictions at all whatsoever.
26:28Because if she cared about the earth, you know, to Kat's point, she wouldn't be chucking cell phones into the sea.
26:34So poor little dolphins would choke on them and they wouldn't be able to rape the other mammals in the ocean.
26:41It's very sad.
26:42I think that's a myth about dolphins.
26:44It's not.
26:45They are known as the rapists of the sea.
26:46No, no, no, no.
26:47Yeah, but you know what?
26:48They're probably convictionless as well.
26:51They'll probably switch to the next big leftist thing.
26:54They could probably come here and declare asylum.
26:56That was a social commentary.
27:00It wasn't meant to be funny.
27:01Where is she going to go?
27:03I mean, what's her next thing?
27:04I predict UK celebrity big brother, right?
27:08Reality show.
27:09Yes.
27:10I think she could.
27:11Or something on the ocean.
27:12Maybe one of these, like, I don't know, life at sea.
27:16She, you know, the amazing thing about the Israeli defense forces is they, when they hold you hostage,
27:22they allow you to continue making social media videos.
27:25Yes.
27:25It's amazing.
27:26It's amazing.
27:27I wonder what would happen if Hamas had gotten a hold of her.
27:29Yes, exactly.
27:29I mean, she's making it seem like, oh, this is horrible.
27:32The Israeli Navy, they're holding us against our bill.
27:36Yeah.
27:36And we're all going to die.
27:38It's like, do you think Hamas would have given her, like, 20 seconds?
27:41They should take all of them and make them watch the videos from October 7th.
27:45You know, that should be there.
27:47They say, look, we'll let you go.
27:48But we're going to have, they should have had, like, a.
27:56MSNBC's Joe Scarborough confronted on viral best Biden ever clip.
28:01MSNBC host maintained his assessment based on personal interactions despite pushback from Mark Halperin.
28:08MSNBC's Joe Scarborough was confronted with a viral clip of him deeming former President Joe Biden in the best Biden ever in March 2024 on Tuesday,
28:21standing by his assessment of the former president citing his personal interactions with him.
28:26Speaking to Mark Halperin during his show, Next Up with Mark Halperin,
28:31Scarborough watched the clip of himself where he argued that the former president was far beyond cognate.
28:38I've said for years now, but he's cognate.
28:42But I undersold it when I said he was cognate.
28:46He's far beyond cognate.
28:47In fact, I think he's better than he's ever been.
28:50Intellectually, analytically, because he's been around for 50 years,
28:54Scarborough said during a March 2024 Morning Joe broadcast.
28:58Start your tape right now because I'm about to tell you the truth.
29:01And F you, if you can't handle the truth, this version of Biden, intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever.
29:09After noting that Biden had good days and bad days, Halperin asked Scarborough,
29:14looking back at that, do you say, well, it was misleading to say best Biden ever without caveating it
29:20and saying except on the days when he's not the best Biden ever?
29:25Scarborough insisted he never saw the bad days personally.
29:29Earlier in the conversation, Scarborough detained multiple meetings he had with Joe Biden,
29:51during which the MSNBC host argued that Biden had a better analysis of the situation
29:56related to Ukraine and Russia that he had heard from most people.
30:01Halperin pushed back and told Scarborough, well, you did.
30:05You did because you saw him address a dead congresswoman and you saw him in South Carolina.
30:12Halperin argued he could show Scarborough several clips of days when the former president
30:17was not the best Biden ever and Scarborough pivoted the conversation to Trump.
30:22Scarborough argued he stumbled and bumbled around Mark.
30:27I mean, yeah, he certainly did.
30:29Donald Trump did.
30:30Other politicians did.
30:31And it's actually the same case as a lot of times when I've gone in and talked to Donald Trump.
30:36We go on to Donald Trump and I've heard the media narrative around Donald Trump.
30:40And certainly I've been very critical of Trump.
30:43And when I leave, I have a better understanding, just like Jeffrey Goldberg did a couple of days ago,
30:49a better understanding of where Donald Trump is mentally.
30:53If Donald Trump is losing it, like people have said through the years or not.
30:58And so, again, am I going to look at a clip that's gone viral and pay more attention to that
31:04than two and a half, three hours I had with a guy one-on-one going around the world?
31:10No, I'm just not going to, the MSNBC host said.
31:14Are some of the clips bad?
31:15Yeah, they certainly are bad.
31:18Put into proper context, I'm just not going to freak out and melt down
31:22on one or two clips here and there.
31:25The morning Joe host added.
31:27And again, he bumbled around and he stumbled around.
31:29But he has for quite some time.
31:32That didn't seem to me to get in the way of Joe Biden being able to analyse the most important issues.
31:38Scarborough went after former special counsel Robert Hurt in February 2024
31:43for his report on the former president related to the classified document probe
31:47that showed Biden struggling with key memories, including when his son Buu died,
31:52when he left the vice presidency and why he was in possession of classified documents he shouldn't have had.
31:58I'm just saying, this guy says such random, hmm, Scarborough said at the time,
32:05demanding that Hurt apologise for his report.
32:09Does he hope he gets a judgeship?
32:11I think he does.
32:12I think he hopes he gets a judgeship even if Donald Trump gets elected again,
32:16because he's trying out, because he humiliated himself with that display, Scarborough added.
32:21The audio of her Biden interview was released on Friday
32:25and CNN's Abby Phillips suggested her undersold the extent of Biden's lapses during the interview.
