00:00Hello, everyone. I'm Dana Perino, along with Emily Campagno, Piers Morgan, Charlie Herding,
00:07Greg Gutfeld. It's five o'clock in New York City, and this is The Five.
00:18For President Trump, tussling with the liberal media for his big return to 60 minutes. This is
00:23five years since his last sit down and one major lawsuit settled. It was a news tornado on many
00:29fronts, including this exchange on ICE raids. More recently, Americans have been watching videos
00:36of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood,
00:42and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far? No, I think they haven't
00:48gone far enough because we've been held back by the by the judges, by the liberal judges that were
00:53put in by Biden and by Obama. You're OK with those tactics. Yeah, because you have to get the
00:59people out. The president doing some of his classic media sparring after he got asked this
01:04question on whether the U.S. military is ready to strike targets inside of Venezuela.
01:10And this issue of potential land strikes in Venezuela, is that true? I don't tell you that.
01:15I mean, I'm not saying it's true or untrue, but I, you know, I wouldn't. Why would we do it? I wouldn't
01:19be inclined to say that I would do that, but because I don't talk to a reporter about whether or not I'm
01:24gonna strike. President Trump also clashing with CBS over the Democrats going after his political
01:29opponents and how he thinks about the job he's doing so far. We have been acknowledged to have
01:36the greatest nine months. You know, it's nine months, the greatest nine months in the history
01:40of the presidency. So if I can keep that going, I'll be very happy. James Comey, John Bolton,
01:45Letitia James were all recently indicted. There's a pattern to these names. They're all public figures
01:51who have publicly denounced you. Is it political retribution? You know what? You know who got
01:56indicted? The man you're looking at. Schumer is a basket case. Schumer is a basket case and he has
02:03nothing to lose. He's become, I just left Japan. He's become a kamikaze pilot. All right, Charlie,
02:10the president set me up for this comment perfectly just there because he said, I just got back from
02:15Japan. In the way, way back machine in June of 2024, Biden went overseas. He went to Europe and
02:22had a meeting and then he took 12 days off before he had the debate on June 27th with President Trump
02:30that basically exposed everything for what it was. President Trump has been in Israel and then he just
02:36got back from an Asia trip which used to knock me on my butt for a week or so before I could get it
02:42together. I think he had a good interview and if you want to read the entire thing, you can, but he
02:47also seemed to get along okay with Nora. Yeah, and of course, J.D. Vance over the weekend talked about
02:52what a curse it is to have to go on these trips as a staffer with President Trump on one of these
02:56international trips because he never takes a nap. He doesn't sleep. He never sleeps. He sleeps maybe
03:00like a couple hours. Nobody knows when. It's like at his desk chair or something like that and then
03:05he's back at it three hours later and nobody can keep up with him. But I loved his answer. I loved all of
03:11his answers, but I loved his answer about ICE. It reminds me of Trump's first inaugural address
03:17when he went out there after winning the election in 2016 and he said what you're never supposed to
03:22say in Washington, which is, yeah, I ran this campaign, I talked about all these things and I
03:27meant every word of it and I'm going to do everything I can to get every single one of these things done.
03:32And as you remember, the Washington Post said within minutes of that, they posted a story saying
03:38that the impeachment proceedings began against him because he's not kidding around. These are
03:46issues, you know, what brought him here were the issues. He intends to take them seriously. We
03:51focus on how funny he is and some of the more outrageous things that he says, but when it comes
03:56to the issues, he's very serious about them. And when it comes to trying to undoing what the Biden
04:02administration did for four years with open borders, he's not kidding around. He wants to,
04:06he wants to fix that problem. And I wouldn't say there was a ton of breaking news out of Emily,
04:11but what it did do is set the Republicans and President Trump on a better course for the week
04:15where the Democrats want him to take the fall for the shutdown. He was driving the news on a Sunday.
04:20That was smart. Yes. I felt like it was this sort of tone setting mission to your point, right? That
04:25he was coming out of the gate, uh, charging out and demonstrating what leadership looks like.
04:29It was such a calm confidence. And I felt like he was sort of stress testing the establishment
04:33media, right? And he's, he doesn't need the outreach. So to me, it was almost like a victory
04:38lap. Like he was sort of coming out there on his own terms as a power flex. I mean,
04:42saying on their own network, yeah, you had to pay me a lot of money. Uh, and two policy points. I
04:46think it's important with the Venezuela stuff, that sort of deliberate, uh, vagueness. That's
04:50an important deterrence tool that we saw in the first administration. And here it's been backed up,
04:55obviously by decision. So I liked that he was vague because that's not something that he,
04:59uh, has to share in that regard. It goes a lot further in this moment for him saying essentially,
05:04you know, mess around and find out and you'll find out when you need to. And then on the border
05:09and with ice, I think that's important to reset the baseline that him saying, you know what,
05:12they haven't gone far enough. Like he's not stooping to the level of hysteria of them enforcing
05:17the laws. What he's saying is now we are back in this climate to enforcing the law, to supporting
05:23our law enforcement, to protecting Americans. I won't apologize for it. And there may be more
05:28to go. So yeah, I give it, um, an absolute a plus. And I think that tone that I talked about
05:33sort of shapes it's as always, it's me against the institutions. Hear a lot of wheeze from him
05:38about him and the American people and the Republicans going into hopefully the end of
05:42this shutdown. Speaking of institutions, Piers Morgan is with us. What is the view from across
05:50the pond? Well, I don't know what the view was from somebody who's come across the pond to New York
05:54and sat and watched it all last night. I watched the edited version on television. Then I watched
05:59the whole thing. And I was really struck. I texted him to say this. I said, you know,
06:02I was really struck by the fact that not only was it enjoyable to watch, unusual for a Trump
06:09mainstream media encounter, normally very acrimonious, very adversarial. Um, I thought it was mutually
06:15robust, but also it had a civil tone to it. I thought everyone was the winner from that interview.
06:21That's how presidential interviews ought to be conducted. It's what not happened in his first
06:26term. And I always wonder if the mainstream media hadn't been so hostile to Trump because they hated
06:33the fact he'd won. If they actually had been like Nora was, I felt last night, more respectful to the
06:40office of the presidency, you know, robust in challenging him, but not just going bonkers as
06:45they did the first time around. Would Trump have been less controversial, adversarial himself? I
06:51think he might've been. He said, you know, we've all known him a long time. I've known him nearly 20
06:55years. He's someone in his book, the art of the deal. He says, if you, if you whack me, I'm going
06:59to whack you 10 times back harder. That's his natural pugilist New York style. So I liked the fact
07:04that last night I watched it and it was, it was a mutually engaging conversation between people
07:11where you didn't felt one hated the other. Um, but also the other, I think wider point politically,
07:17you know, where Trump stands on things. There's a real clarity. And I always said about the first
07:22time you won, if you asked a hundred people in the streets of America, give me five things Donald
07:27Trump stands for. They'd probably be able to tell you if you ask them what Hillary Clinton stood for,
07:32they wouldn't same with Biden, same with Kamala Harris, you know, Trump, if you ask me what people
07:37in Britain think. There's an interesting poll came out recently that said they're not massively keen
07:41on his rhetoric and how he talks and stuff in the UK, but they do like Trumpism. What's that?
07:47Fewer wars, fewer taxes, fairer trade, strong border, tough on crime. These are big, big messages,
07:55which as Charlie said, he promised he would do. He's delivering on. There's a clarity to Trumpism,
08:00which simply doesn't exist with the Democrats, which is why they are currently in what we would say in
08:06the UK in the cart. I remember years ago, you told me that you hated that tick, tick, tick sound
08:12of I love it because it would mean that was 60 Minutes was on. And you said that meant school
08:16on Monday. It just shows you the difference between me and you. That means, oh boy, it's
08:20going to be Monday soon. And I'm like, oh, God, it's going to be Monday. I didn't see that as an
08:25as an interview. I saw it as a as a victim offender mediation. Remember, you know, when they take
08:32the criminal and the person he robbed, they bring him together. That's restorative justice.
08:38Trump's vibe is all of us regarding legacy and traditional media. He's reversing the charges.
08:47We all feel this way now when now when he shows up, the media shows up, they have to be on their toes,
08:53not you. This is how I feel. I've been interviewed recently. I don't I feel like they owe me something.
08:59I want to see their community service. I want to know until further notice. This entire industry
09:04is on probation. The media is like that that lazy, terrible student jock that blew off four years of
09:13classes from 20 to 24. So now they're back. They've lost all privileges, all benefits. They're in the
09:21doghouse. They're grounded because of the loss of credibility from the fine people hoax, Russian
09:27collusion, laptop. Of course, the biggest scandal of all, which was the Biden brain cover up.
09:33They're under house arrest. They have to do a lot to get to get us to trust them again.
09:39We're hurt. You know, and by the way, Fox is exempt. We fell for none of the hoaxes and we were mocked
09:45for challenging them. I am not surprised. I'm surprised that none of us have been poached.
09:50Like, why am I not being why am I not being like pursued to be president of CNN?
09:57Right. Don't you think, Dana, that that would say I mean, look at what CBS is doing under Barry
10:02Weiss. That is what all the networks should be doing is like bring in new blood, get rid of the
10:08old corrupt blood. It's a confession and a penance and a promise to repair all in one thing.
10:15You don't have to apologize. Just in your actions, make something new. I have yet to get a phone call
10:20about taking over MSNBC, which they know I would change. I would love to see that.
10:26I'm not saying I'm available. I love Fox. It would be the first thing you did as president of MSNBC.
10:31Oh, my God. It would be four hours of dog and poop videos from eight to twelve. That's the
10:38prime time. P.M. or P.M. P.M. P.M. Yes. All right. You know, they might take you up on that.
10:44They might be listening just across the street right ahead. The Barack signal going up.
10:48Former President Obama hitting the campaign trail to bail out the Democrats.
10:54It's election eve in America and the Dems are calling in the big guns to bail them out. Barack
10:59Obama back on the trail in Virginia to pump up the privileged white lady running for governor
11:05over the black woman racist. You make the call. Then to New Jersey, where he's stumped for
11:13the candidate there, and he talked about poop.
11:17I'll admit it's worse than even I expected, but I did warn y'all. They never miss a chance
11:25to scapegoat minorities and blame DEI for every problem under the sun. You got a flat tire?
11:34must be DEI. Your wife kicked you out? DEI. The weird videos of a U.S. president with a
11:47crown on his head flying a fighter jet and dumping poop on American citizens. It's literally explaining
11:59a meme. You hate when I do that. I know. Barry O. also tapping into his socialist roots by calling
12:07Zoran to praise his campaign and offering to be a sounding board. Well, he is sounding board.
12:16Trump also weighing in on Zoran the commie and his looks.
12:19Some people have compared him to a left wing version of you. Charismatic, breaking the old
12:26rules. What do you think about that? Well, I think I'm a much better looking person than him,
12:31right? But what if Mondami becomes mayor? It's going to be hard for me as the president to give
12:36a lot of money to New York. Because if you have a communist running New York, all you're doing is
12:43wasting the money you're sending there. So I don't know that he's one. And I'm not a fan of Cuomo
12:48one way or the other. But if it's going to be between a bad Democrat and a communist,
12:53I'm going to pick the bad Democrat all the time.
12:57Yeah, it's impressive seeing Obama just so quickly after winning the New York City Marathon.
13:03Dana, it's always a Kenyan. It's a joke. It's a joke. Maybe Obama can explain it. I got it. I had
13:11so much stuff about Obama. But then I heard that thing where she goes, there are some people
13:18that are. Don't you hate that? Like name the some people. Yeah. Right. Who said it? Yes. There is
13:25no some people. Can I talk about Obama, though? Yeah, of course. So if he had coattails, then Kamala
13:31Harris would be president. Yeah. President. They can't call upon the energy in the party right now
13:38because the energy in the party is a socialist. Yes. And he's likely to win the New York City
13:42mayor's race. So that would be bad for Mikey Sherrill in New Jersey, which is the closer of
13:48the two races that we're going to be watching tomorrow. And Jack Cittarelli only lost by,
13:52I think, three points the last time around. And he's likely to at least give this a really good
13:57go tomorrow night. His team thinks it's actually going to happen for them. President Obama also,
14:03he called Mom Donnie, didn't appear with him. And it was like, hey, all good. So basically,
14:09then he's covered if Mom Donnie wins. But then he can have distance from him if he loses. Because
14:14the Democrats' intra-party problems right now are so interesting to see. Mom Donnie, for example,
14:20one of the things that he, if you would look back to his past statements, what was he's obsessed with?
14:24Jewish people. And then he works his way up and he says, but actually, I'm going to give you free
14:30health care, free buses and a free apartment, but also the Jews. Yeah. Right. So now that party,
14:37the Democrats, haven't never dealt with that party. They just stood by. The Republicans are
14:42having a rip-roaring fight about it right now. And that's more healthy, I think, in the long run.
14:46President Obama, I think that these are both bluish states. If Obama was going to get it across
14:53the finish line, then what happened, yes, this weekend would not have happened. My last point is
14:58this. And over the weekend, so at this event that you're looking at right now, apparently it was
15:03supposed to be at a much bigger venue, but they had to make it, they had to change the venue to make
15:08it look like there were more people because, you know, people are watching football. They're not that
15:12engaged. Oh, that's a nice way of putting it, Dana. Charlie, obviously Barack Obama chooses this
15:19white woman. Her name is Spanberger, who supports men in dresses and women's locker rooms
15:26over a black successful woman. Why does Obama hate black women? Because that's what he would say
15:33about you if you didn't choose the black candidate. Well, there, and there's the difference between
15:39him and me. I'm not going to say that about him, but it is a very good point. Thank you. And, uh,
15:45and he is, no, I mean, he is, uh, uh, pulling for, uh, you know, he, one of the things that he did in
15:5220, whatever in 2020 was, or, uh, yeah, 20, no, 2024 was he lectured, especially black male voters
16:00saying you need to vote for the black woman on the ticket. And now he's pulling for the lady that he
16:08agrees with, as opposed to the black woman who is extraordinarily successful. He also, at that same
16:14event that he did in Norfolk, he campaigned for Jay Jones and lectured the rest of us about how
16:22politics has turned so dark and divisive. And we need to stop our dark, divisive politics as he's
16:28campaigning for a guy who advocated assassinating his political opponent because he didn't like his
16:34political opponent and their kids and their kids. Um, in terms of him being the cleanup guy,
16:40he's not a very good cleanup guy. Uh, Barack Obama costs Democrats over a thousand seats during the
16:46course of his career, uh, his eight years in the white house. He's really good at getting himself
16:51elected and then ruining everybody else around him. Um, and I think that, uh, and I agree with what
16:59you said, Dana, you know, New Jersey and Virginia are blue States. They should clean up on Tuesday.
17:06Um, if they don't, it'll be because they don't, I mean, if they do, it'll be because that's the way
17:11the sort of trend goes. If they don't, that will be a five alarm fire for the Democrat party.
17:17Hmm. Piers, what did you make of Obama's kind of like riff on DEI, which was, I have to say it was
17:26kind of funny, but does he realize how everybody feels about it at this point? I have literally
17:32written a book about it. It seems kind of irrelevant right now. Well, it's interesting
17:37because I've written this book called woke is dead and people said, it's not dead. I said,
17:39no, it's not dead. It does. Cause the people who perpetrate it don't actually realize everybody
17:43else has killed it off. When I watch Obama, when I watch Mamdani, when I watch AOC, I watch all this
17:48thing. What I'm actually seeing is a very weird existential crisis for the Democrats. I think
17:54you have a liberal chair here and it's great, right? You have somebody here that disagrees with all you
18:00guys. And I get put in this chair, but I'm kind of nothing to do with where the liberals have gone.
18:06I have nothing in common with the progressive left whatsoever with wokeism. You're going to need
18:11two chairs here. You're going to need old fashioned people who identified as liberals, Bill Maher,
18:17Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, RFK. There's a whole load of people, me, people who would have happily said,
18:22I'm a liberal, but who now think, well, that doesn't describe what liberalism is to me.
18:27They'd become the new fascists. And the idea that New York will now be run by a genuine socialist
18:34is extraordinary to me, but also a massive political gift to the Republicans. Because if
18:41he gets to become mayor of New York, it cannot work what he's proposing. You cannot just give
18:47everything away without actually making other people pay for it. People are going to get taxed to hell
18:52in New York. And this will become a referendum on the Democrats. But meanwhile, he's the most
18:57charismatic person they have. And so he's out there as the flag waver now for the Democrats.
19:02That's a disaster for them politically, I think. They need desperately somebody to come through in
19:09the center ground, center left, somebody who could actually reach out to appeal to a cross-section of
19:14Americans. That's not Mandani, but he's now the face of the party. So Obama's come out,
19:20of course, he knows this. That's why he's not endorsing him. And then you look at Obama,
19:24I did laugh at the DEI stuff. He's a good, charismatic talker, always was. But the idea
19:29that he puts his moral halo on about Trump is pretty nauseating. This is the guy who was the
19:35bomber in chief. I think I'm right in saying that he dropped a bomb every three hours when he was
19:40president of the United States. More bombs in one year and more often illegal drone programs than have
19:46been run by any other president in history. He was also the deporter in chief. Let's not forget,
19:51deported three million people in his eight years. And yet here he is with this moral halo. He was so
19:57concerned about the law that when he campaigned in 2008 over closing Guantanamo Bay, at the end of
20:04his eight years in power, it was still open. So, you know, it's a bit of a phony, Barack Obama.
20:09And I think that applies to all of them. I think Mamdani is a phony. He's a guy that wanted to
20:14defund the NYPD, call them a bunch of racists. Now he says, I didn't mean it. You know, you look at
20:19someone like Gavin Newsom, who says, I never use any of that woke stuff. I never said Latinx. And
20:24then we find a thousand examples of him saying Latinx and so on. They are a bunch of phonies.
20:29And until they find somebody who's authentic, Trump for them, because Trump, whether you love him or
20:35hate him, he is incredibly authentic. All right, Emily, tomorrow, big day.
20:41What are your thoughts on what could happen? Do you feel it's going to be a Zoran?
20:49Well, the problem is, as you guys know, I am an eternal optimist. However, I am terrified,
20:56like hide under the bed, terrified that this city can essentially fall to ruin, which is what would
21:01happen if Mamdani wins. And what I'm not quite sure is when you have President Obama coming out
21:06and making the call, and sure, not making a full-throated endorsement, but it was a dang
21:12substantive step in that direction. Who is Mamdani's biggest challenger at this moment?
21:18Andrew Cuomo, a strong establishment Democrat, whose policies align pretty perfectly along with
21:24President Obama's. Incremental progressive reform within financial and fiscal responsibility,
21:29climate action, affordability, LGBTQ rights, etc. But yet, he has not said anything about Andrew
21:38Cuomo. And instead, he's caught up in the energy of Mamdani, a blatant anti-Semite that refuses to
21:46condemn Hamas or talk about the terrorism threat on this soil. And he is somehow implying, in my
21:54opinion, that the optics of supporting Cuomo, you know, the sexual harassment cloud and the shame,
21:59the optics of this aging out Democrat established person, regardless of the Cuomo family, is somehow
22:04more of a taint than Mamdani. That is all you need to know about the Democrat Party, that they have
22:10completely sacrificed ideals and prioritizing. Remember, they were the party of values.
22:15Everything out of their mouth is about skin color and gender until the person is actually rooted in
22:21common sense, like Winsome Sears. And then it is crickets. And who I blame, too, are those ridiculous,
22:27self-serving and self-satisfying upper class, you know, white women like Mikey Sherrill,
22:32Mickey Sherrill, I can never pronounce her name, who's sitting there being like, mm-hmm, as Obama is saying
22:37these comments. You are most of the problem. And now Obama is just the mouthpiece for it. But that phoniness
22:44that you talk about that has riddled and addled the Democrat Party. All right. Up next, Gavin Newsom
22:51hates politicians who lie.
22:57Even more dumpster fire headlines for the dumpster fire Democrats. According to new research,
23:01working class voters think Dems are, quote, woke and weak. And Democrats are hitting a record high,
23:0855 percent unfavorable rating in the latest CNN poll, which is their worst showing since they
23:15started asking this question two decades ago. And the candidate who will save them? The governor
23:22who can't talk without his hands doing the Macarena. I hate when I, nothing I dislike more than the
23:31politician that sits there and lies to you. And we all just sit there rolling our eyes going,
23:36give me a break. Did you ever have concerns, governor, about his capacity to serve another
23:43four years? I never had that direct. I just talked to the president. I spent almost two hours with him
23:48in December, right before, during the transition in the Oval Office. And my experience, his expression,
23:57gave me no pause, no doubt. So, Greg, you know, we look at that and we see this old,
24:04what is the word? Ogielanius? I'm just trying to get that head tilt. Yeah. When he's like,
24:14he's basically, you're saying you're not going home with me? I don't think so. Or it's like,
24:18you're going to be leaving here in a new Porsche. It's like this weird, I can't look at that. It's
24:25amazing. It's like, that's, you don't even need the sound on. It's, look at that. I could look at
24:33that for hours. Honestly, that is, here we go. Here we go. Anyway, okay. That's all I have on him
24:45working. I mean, the guy lives in his own blind spot. We all have a blind spot about one or two
24:50things. His entire existence as a blind spot, the working classes were sacrificed on the altar of
24:57luxury beliefs. These are the beliefs, the virtue signaling beliefs that all the wealthy white
25:01libs could handle, but everybody else couldn't. A plumber has no time, you know, or patience for
25:07queers for Palestine, or the secret racism of roadmaps, or drag queen acceptance at public
25:14library children's time. It became an affront to their senses. It's okay if luxury beliefs are
25:20benign, recreational beliefs, like you believe the world is flat or UFOs, or even like paper straws
25:28and reusable bags, luxury beliefs. But their luxury beliefs were destructive. They're suicidal. You
25:36talk about perversion and recidivism. You have the trans delusion that they pushed on kids, and then
25:43you have repeat offenders that are let out because of no cash mail. These are all luxury beliefs that
25:47actually hurt people that invade their family lives and compel them to obey certain destructive
25:53things. That's not a that's that's worse than a luxury belief. It's a luxury destruction.
25:58Yeah. So Emily, you're from California. You've seen this guy for a long time. Is it a blind spot that
26:03he has, like Greg says? Or does he does he know something that the rest of us don't know that people
26:09aren't really as like put off by this creepiness? No, I think that in his case, his ego has just
26:17eclipsed everything else. And we see that we see that in Democrat Party form often. We just talked
26:23about it last block, where someone says, No, no, no, let me speak for you, person of color, minority
26:30member of a community that I purport to represent and articulate your needs better than you. That is
26:35Gavin. And that's why it's so funny that you were like, come home with me, because whenever I see
26:39him, I think of that greasy, disgusting person in the bar in an 80s movie. You know, the prep school
26:45kid that always gets his way and gets what he wants come hell or high water. But I think that writ large,
26:51first of all, the fact that the majority of working class voters in the Democrat Party view their
26:55party as elite. That is why, to your point, watch it on mute. And you're telling me that that person
27:01does not think he's better than you, in all respects, and knows better than you in all
27:06respects. The other thing is, you can't fake happiness. So when he talked about that, what
27:10he sees is the vulnerability of the party is weakness. And he said, you can be, you know,
27:14weak and right. Like, that's not it at all. I think, frankly, that the miserableness of the
27:20Democrat Party and the libs, the Trump derangement syndrome, the fact that they don't have God so
27:25often, that shows in everything. Like, take it from me. I'm the happiest person you know.
27:29And when someone is literally, like, figuratively speaking, suicidal about their party,
27:36no wonder people have no hope. They have given up. And so the members of that party see that.
27:41You're not the happiest person. I am.
27:45As the happiest person, Dana, do Democrats, is it a messaging problem or is it way more?
27:51I think it's a governance problem and a competence problem. And the proof is just in the
27:57number of people who want to move into your state and the people who want to leave your state.
28:01I think that's very simple. And I think blue state governors and blue city mayors are seeing
28:06this all across the board. That's why they have to constantly say that we will raise taxes and they
28:10don't want to deal with the consequences of what that means. So if you have people that want to move
28:14to your state, it is probably governed well. If you have the highest number of U-Hauls that want to
28:19leave in a one way from California to Arizona, Nevada, Dallas, Florida, Nashville, pretty much
28:29anywhere else. And that's the sad thing is these two know. And I lived in San Diego for three years.
28:34That's one of the most beautiful places on earth. And people don't want to be there. So I think it's
28:38a governance issue. I think it's also the fact that a lot of these coalitions are changing.
28:42So on the Democratic side, the Republicans have gone through this a little bit and Trump's holding
28:47it together. In fact, I think that Trump is holding the Democrats together right now, too.
28:52That if he's not there, then what do they rally around? Is it Gavin Newsom? I don't know. But can
28:58Gavin Newsom force the socialists and the progressives and the moderates and the rural farmers to the
29:07extent that there are any? Can he keep them all together? They're trying to do it by force rather
29:13than from the ground up. Do you know who I finally figured out? Gavin Newsom reminds me,
29:17of somebody who roofies himself. He meant to put the pill in the dates cup and he just
29:23is like, whoa, dude. Anyway.
29:26So, Piers, as a shrewd outside observer, do you have any faith that Democrats are going to
29:32be able to figure out? Well, more than that, I'm a California resident for a lot of the
29:35year. I have a home in California and he's the biggest charlatan. He is such a charlatan.
29:41Only this week he was posting about Trump having this great Gatsby party. While there's a
29:46shutdown on him, he doesn't care about the people when there's a shutdown on while he
29:51parties. And I had to point out to him, I replied. I said, Mr. Newsom, I said, can I
29:56remind you that during the pandemic, when you yourself had ordered a literal shutdown of
30:02your citizens or residents in California, you were caught at the French Laundry, one of the
30:07most expensive restaurants in America, having a big party with your chums. So we won't take
30:12any lectures about partying during shutdowns from you. Well, I was watching him with that
30:16expression, which Greg loves, which is fantastic. Doesn't it remind you of the Bill Clinton one?
30:21When he goes, I hate lying politicians, and then immediately says afterwards, I did not
30:27have any cerebrally concerning conversations with that man. I did not. I did not. And you know he did.
30:35If he spent two hours with Joe Biden in December, you know you did. You big Pinocchio.
30:40What does he get for saying that Biden was terrific? I don't understand what he gets from
30:46that. They're all doing it, aren't they? They're all doing Kamala Harris. I mean, the Kamala Harris,
30:51Kareem Jean-Pierre book tours, which are the worst book tours in history, by contrast to my own,
30:56very successful book tour. But all of them are just plowing this ridiculous furrow of Biden was
31:02completely compus mentis and absolutely fit to serve. That's why we had to get rid of him.
31:06It's preposterous. Well, he's probably drawing a distinction, too, from Kamala,
31:10who now in her book is distancing herself from Biden. So he's probably coming out to the donor
31:14class to say, I'm the older child. It's not going to work long term. They're
31:17going to have to figure out a way to distance themselves. All right. Up next,
31:20Jennifer, actress Jennifer Lawrence is breaking with her fellow TDS suffering Hollywood celebrities.
31:28Jennifer Lawrence is breaking with her fellow TDS suffering celebrities.
31:31She's done talking politics. And here's why. Watch.
31:36Celebrities do not make a difference whatsoever on who people vote for. And so then what am I doing?
31:44I don't want to start turning people off to films and to art that could change consciousness or change
31:52the world because they don't like my political opinions.
31:56Here's so. Hallelujah. Yeah, exactly. I mean, right. Finally, the penny is dropping in Hollywood
32:04that nobody cares. It doesn't work. Hillary, Kamala, they all rolled out all the big stars. It made no
32:12difference whatsoever. Finally, some self-awareness from Hollywood is kicking in, probably because
32:17they're realizing it damages their own business models. If you alienate more than half the country,
32:23you know, when Trump had that clean sweep at the election, if you carry on just publicly whacking him,
32:28you're basically turning away more than 50 percent of your entire market.
32:31So I'm pleased to see it. I just wish people like George Clooney
32:35listen to that and get the memo because there he is really interesting this week, isn't it?
32:40He's out there explaining at great length why he felt the need to play kingmaker about who should be running the Democrats.
32:46Well, why is it down to you? If you really want to be in the political game, George Clooney, get in the game like Trump did.
32:53Put your neck on the line, run for office and be judged accordingly. But the idea that you sit there writing your op-ed to the New York Times
32:59trying to force the hand of political parties is crazy. I applaud Jennifer Lawrence.
33:04You know, I mean, she's saying that a celeb should stay out of politics, but then she's giving a political interview. It's kind of funny.
33:10I think it's refreshing. It's good. All of that just reminds me of right after 9-11 at the Oscars that next year,
33:17Tom Cruise opened it up and he said, I know that a lot of people might feel like, you know,
33:22that what we do isn't as important as what, you know, what they're doing fighting.
33:27But I dare say it's more important than ever. And I'll never forget Peter. And I were like, oh, my God.
33:34So when I hear that, I'm like, oh, OK, 25 years later, it's kicking in.
33:37Yeah. Do you think this is going to start a trend or represents a new trend?
33:40I don't feel any like goodwill towards this at all.
33:45She's saying that she's going to stop with her left wing commentary because it's no longer a low risk.
33:52She had no skin in the game. So while we would talk and we would get either canceled or harassed,
33:59she could say whatever she want. No skin in the game.
34:02Now she realizes, oh, it could hurt my career. Maybe, you know, maybe movies can change the world.
34:07Yeah, I saw no hard feelings. The only thing that's going to change the world is your nude scene on the beach,
34:12which, by the way, was amazing. That's the best thing Jennifer Lawrence has ever done is the nude fight scene in no hard feelings.
34:19Other than that, utterly forgettable, utterly forgettable.
34:22And by the way, Jennifer Lawrence, good luck. I'm not answering your calls.
34:25We had fun that summer. Get over it.
34:28Everyone is now Googling that scene.
34:31Okay, up next. Some Gen Z men are giving up on dating and the reason why will shock you.
34:36That's next.
34:37She has a revamp.
34:38For retirement, but...
34:41No, no, no.
34:44No, no, no.
34:47No, no, no.
34:48You don't forget, we're lost in the sky
34:55What's in you is a small life
35:00But don't forget, until the moon is preserved
35:04In my life, until the moon will still be able to
35:07The walls of the last summer
35:14welcome back some gen z men are now avoiding dating altogether because they're afraid of being
35:34filmed and humiliated online by people turning others misfortunes into online clout dana i
35:40actually feel sorry for gen z yeah i think this is i think there needs to be a phone etiquette
35:47truce for dating and if you really actually want to come actually i hate when people say that
35:53put the phones down have agreement phones are away have the date and then walk away and if you want to
36:01have a second date then you can maybe think about taking a selfie maybe second maybe third
36:05it's great it's about men being humiliated by young female influencers who have recorded when
36:12they're rejected this is not real this is a completely made-up story by would-be male
36:20serial killers who want you to leave your phone at home so they go i don't like to be filmed and then
36:28they take you out to the palm desert horrible things happen they don't find you so whenever
36:34any man says you know i prefer that you leave your phone at home serial killer if i were you stab
36:39them i distance myself from that entreaty to commit crimes um charlie do you have sympathy with young
36:47men these days because i do i have i have a lot of having to date these days i have a lighter take
36:51than greg's mine is lighter than murder yeah yeah that i mean inherent in dating is like humiliation
36:58and rejection that's part of dating but not shared publicly online okay maybe not but i mean what
37:05makes a good somebody good at dating is getting really used to rejection until you don't get
37:11ridiculous enormous experience i was really good at rejection
37:15that i feel like we are in like the the a much lower level of the seven layers of hell with this for
37:24guys it's not just about rejection it's about them getting memed and their reputation's exploded and
37:29living forever on the internet so shame on the girls that are doing this i think they are the
37:33ones where it's going to boomerang and they're the ones that are going to have it be affected
37:37permanently because every guy is going to be like i'm not even touching that one because she's going to
37:41put me on blast women can be cruel they can i suspect men are doing this too by the way uh anyway one
