00:00You have Trump-Durain syndrome, like most people who speak about Donald Trump as though it's just him.
00:06There are multiple layers of government and checks and balances here in America.
00:11We don't have a king.
00:13I mean, even though we now know that Donald Trump is royalty, but he's not a king.
00:20He's an elected official by the people of the United States of America.
00:24So when you talk so heavily about Donald Trump, you can say that because you don't like the man.
00:32You don't know him, but you don't like him.
00:34But you've got to talk about the American people, sir.
00:37It's the American people, praise God, that upholds Donald J. Trump.
00:42It is the American people that elected him to be our representative and our commander-in-chief.
00:47So you need to talk more about America and not so much about Donald Trump, but America.
00:53He is the commander-in-chief.
00:54But it's the people of the United States of America to form a more perfect union.
00:58We, the people of the United States of America, is the power behind Donald Trump.
01:03So you insult America, sir.
01:05When you insult Donald Trump, you insult America.
01:08Have you finished?
01:11Matt, the right to response, Matt.
01:13What an absurd collection of things to say.
01:16To accuse me of having Trump derangement syndrome,
01:18because I have a lot of criticisms of the way that your president has conducted himself,
01:23including, by the way, recently suggesting that Somalis, not suggesting,
01:27saying it explicitly, that Somalis have low IQ.
01:31This is language that approximates the language of white supremacy.
01:35The president has defiled the office of the presidency, in my view.
01:39And guess what, Pastor?
01:40We, like you, live in a democracy, and we get to criticise your president.
01:44He's been highly critical of our prime minister, not just our prime minister,
01:48but our country and of our Royal Navy, describing our ships as toys.
01:52Truly disgraceful comments coming from our allies.
01:57So how dare you level those accusations at me?
01:59You point out that Ukraine is not part of NATO.
02:02Indeed, it isn't.
02:03And so far, Putin hasn't invaded NATO country.
02:07Well, what I will say is when you have an American president,
02:10the leader of the country that is obviously the most powerful in NATO,
02:14describing that foundational alliance as a paper tiger,
02:17it makes it more, not less likely, that Putin might try his hand.
02:22So I'm gobsmacked that you say what you say.
02:25You say that Trump is elected by the American people.
02:29Indeed, of course he is.
02:30He's elected in your great democracy.
02:32But it was your great democracy that President Trump claimed
02:34had delivered the wrong result when he lost to President Biden the first time round.
02:41And I'll also point you to polls that suggest that Republicans
02:44are not exactly looking forward to the midterm elections.
02:48American democracy doesn't stand still.
02:50There is no one American people when it comes to politics.
02:53Your country is deeply divided.
