Became the flashpoint for americas soul and after North Carolina passed a law to require transgender people to use the bathroom that theyre born with not identify with last week the state quickly found itself in deep, deep, [bleep]. The department of justice said North Carolinas controversial new law that limits protections for lgbt people violates the civil rights act. If it carries out the law it could lose roughly 2 billion in federal funds for Public Schools and universities. Trevor theyre not [bleep] serious . Youre willing to give up 2 billion over bathrooms . There is no one i would not let use a bathroom for 2 billion. In fact, i would be your bathroom for 2 billion no, wait, that came out wrong. That came out wrong. What im saying is i would literally let you [bleep] on me for 2 billion. How is this still a fight . Apparently thats just me because yesterday north didnt react the same way. The department of justice gave the state of North Carolina to monday to throw out the law. Instead North Carolina sued the d. O. J. Accusing them of overreaching. Trevor North Carolina, at what point do you admit you are taking this too far because you realize youve already been sharing the bathroom for transpeople your entire lives and never noticed it and why would you . Its a public bathroom. Youre supposed to go in and get out as fast as you can. If you can i. D. Anyone else who is in the bathroom with you you are paying too much attention. I dont care who elvis could be on the urinal next to me and i wouldnt notice because im looking straight ahead at the wall. He could be gyrating like one for the money two for the show. I wouldnt notice. If you dont like trans people for whenever reason its got down the list of problems pee everywhere is a bigger problem. Why isnt it going where its supposed to go and how come the automatic toilet always flushes before im done. Youre a toilet. You dont have everywhere to be. Its not like you have captain america tickets. Relax. Theres so many other problems. The federal government gave North Carolina an ultimatum and the governor mccrory is its something to do with something theyre not accounting for. They had three days to respond to the threat. This unrealistic deadline by the federal government is amazing to the ninth largest state. Trevor why do you keep saying ninth largest state like its supposed to impress us . I dont think the size of your state is relevant here but even if it was, ninth largest . It doesnt sound that impressive. Like if youre tells you youre the ninth largest guy its not a complement. And the way governor mccory says ninth largest state it sounds like a catchphrase which apparently is the. The nine, largest state. The ninth largest state in america. The ninth largest state. Were number nine. Trevor somewhere the governor of the tenth largest state is like, damn you, mccory. Quick rubbing it in. Were doing our best and takes out a golden number nine and is like, some day. I know which way i think this issue should go but i also get why this is an issue. As progressive as youd like to be you have to acknowledge it must be difficult. The idea of transgender must be confusing. Some people are just getting comfortable with ellen and now were telling the same people, by the way, there are men who used to be women and vice versa or they may be in between and are part of society too and i can see how it may seem a lot to handle but the law exploits the fear and goes beyond bathrooms because it says gay and transgender people cannot be protected as a class which means its okay to discriminate against them in employment, housing and every other situation. Like just yesterday the Justice Department responded to North Carolinas lawsuit by saying you want to go to court, well, ill see you in court. Today, we are filing a federal civil rights lawsuit against the state of North Carolina. This action is about a great deal more than bathrooms. This is about the dignity and respect that we accord our fellow citizens and the laws we as the people and country have enacted to protect them. Indeed to protect all of us. And its about the founding ideals if that have led the country haltingly but in e inexorably. Its about ideals though id be surprised if americas founders saw this debate coming. We should probably put something in here about whos allowed to use which bathroom. Or we could have sex with slaves. I like that idea. Trevor for more we turn to our Senior Legal Affairs correspondent. So adam, in your legal opinion, whats the next move for North Carolina . Well, governor mccrory filed the suit yesterday and they may come up against the title 9 issues. Trevor in simpler terms . North carolinas scared of transgender peepee and poopoo. I think they can negotiate skillfully. Heres three simple tips. First, think big. North carolina dont just sue the government. Swing for the fences, say guess what, [bleep] were keeping all your money and if youre transgender in our state youre not allowed top pee at all and field mice get to vote. Trevor field mice . Okay, ill give you the field mice. See, were negotiating. Next step is about leverage and in North Carolina its not in your favor. If the state continues to enforce the law it could theoretically lose federal education funds. That could be at risk for the state. North carolina seems like youre losing this one but what the fed dont know is youre already ranked 47th in the nation when it comes to teacher pay so you could give a [bleep] about education. When North Carolina students bring their teaches an apple, thats their dinner. So let them cult the money and you drop to 50th and next season you get a firstround draft pick. Trevor thats not how teachers work. I already gave you the field mice. I think im being more than fair. And dont be afraid to use your god given right to go on tv and freak people out. What about the civil rights women who dont want men in their bathrooms. Keep our state straight. What were doing with this type of policy is endangering young girls and women of all ages. I look at the history books and see the history books are filled with people who faced challenges for taking stands. Martin luther king jr. , gandhi, jesus christ and i think im in good company when it can comes to that. Come on, man. Youre way better than those guys. All those clothes preached love and tolerance. Preaching hate is where the challenge is at. Get him a statue or put his face on a cake. Trevor i dont see this working as a negotiation tactic. Im glad you brought that up because you have to know you may lose which brings us to tip three, prepare for the worse. If youre realistic youll have nothing fear. In this situation the worse case is transgender people feel welcome in your state and you kept billions of federal dollars. Nightmare, i know. So North Carolina go in negotiations prepared to lose the game and money thats wha i call winning. Trevor how is that called winning. Seems you know nothing about winning. Its not me. Ever rule comes from a book called the art of the deal. Maybe youve heard of it. And i only have one rule, always consult donald trump on fighting on where to take a dump. Trevor i cant believe you went out and bought that book. Didnt buy it. Someone left it in a public bathroom. Trevor well be right back. man ah i forgot to record that show. woman now we have to wait forever to see it. jon bon jovi with directv, you dont. You see, weve got the power to turn back time. That show you missed, lets just go back and find. And lets go back and choose spicy instead of mild. And maybe reconsider having that second child.

You know, its hard to believe that just last week there were still three candidates left in the gop race or some people would call it hope. You know things are bad because i thought worstcase scenario ill go back to africa but no americans have an africa to go to. People come to my place because i have a couch and some blankets. You can fit you guys. You can come with me but still the election so far has been really tough and here to summit up in her new segment is our very own michelle wolfe. Thank you so much for having me. Though i look like a buy bysexual on a quick date. I had a bad week like good news, youre not pregnant bad news is trump is going to be president. Ted cruz dropped out and he would have been an awful president and now better we dont have to look at his face for four years and that man has a scientifically ugly face. Like hes ugly but theres also something about it where youre like thats not what nature wanted. Its like god messed up when he made it like oh, no, i did this one wrong and went to throw it in the garbage but instead it hit the rim and got more dent and rolled away and then ran for president. The other good news is that john kasich dropped out of whatever race he was running. Think it was a 5k in ohio. He got tired so yeah. And then the bad news, donald trump is all we have left and hes going to win because he does the opposite of whats going to happen. Hes like the engine that could if the book was a horror movie. Now well have an orange president. A president that looks like your fingers after you eat cheese curls and a president that looks like he gets advise from his hair, like muslims are bad. Okay, lets do that today. I think theres only one real solution. One solution to all this is we go back to england and say were very sorry. You were right. We werent ready. Well pay you for the tea. Such a silly thing to throw a tantrum over. Well pay for the tea. You can even beyonce us and make a lemonade and we will stand there and take it like jayz. And just let us come home. Like we were on a rumspringer. Like when the amish leave to join the human world where people live with real haircuts. So you leave for a week or month i dont know how they tell time. I mean you leave for three jars of jam and when youre done you decide to stay in the real world or go back to the amish world which sounds easy because the real world has airconditioning and porn and in amish world they teach you everything is the devil and then you see wife swap and you think they may be right. Its insane for america to think wed be good at the country thing because when england and america were together we were like insync. We like to think were Justin Timberlake but were joey. Were fat and happy but cant do it on our own. So england, what im saying is, were in a jam and we want to come home. And based on the trump supporters, im going to say theres going to be a lot of people pretty excited to call cigarettes fags. Cigarettes fags. Trevor michelle wolfe, when our troops dont come back, someone has to help their families move forward. My family lost so much. It was a shock. It was a void. Special Operations Warrior Foundation was there for me. Without special Operations Warrior Foundation, i dont know how we would all afford to go to college.

Its digiorno. [cheers and applause] trevor welcome back to the daily show. My guest is rowan pope from scandal and turn me loose, please welcome, joe morton. Im such a fan. Trevor thank you for being here. My pleasure. You said theres no logic to bigotry and i think thats generally true no matter the racism. There is none. Trevor you go i hate a thing i need no logic. I was a kid some kids in high school burned a cross in front of someones home and they put the kids on the news and said why did you do that do you hate black people they said no, we just dont like them. Logic, there is none. Trevor thank you for being here. Your character in scandal almost works completely in logic. Hes one of the scariest people its rare to find a character like that. Its just the look in your eyes. Do you ever use that in life to get things done . Like are you at the dm have looking into someones eyes . If i go out and its the dmv theyll say, oh, gee i thought id be afraid of you but im not. Trevor joe morton has had an illustrious career. Youre currently offbroadway playing dick gregory. One of my idols and the greatest comedians that ever lived. Was that a person of significance in your life . I think so because i was aware of his comedy and activism and the behemian diet he came up with several years in his career. When you start reading what this man did and essentially heres a man who went from making 17 a week as a kid coming up in the world and ended up making 17 million a year and then decided he was going to become part the movement and gave it up and became a 7 24 activist and thats all he does. He still does comedy but its all all the money goes to the movement because its part of his life. Trevor as someone who has been through so many periods not just in america but in american acting, its fascinating what is your position on diversity in hollywood . Youre on a show not just run by a black woman but the lead is a black woman and this is a show that is really at the forefront. Do you feel personally theres enough to change or what can be done to make it a better environment . Saveras far as my statement u get close to the wall but never reach progress. With scandal, and all her shows its all about diversity and trying to present a world that we recognize out in the world. I think with movies its a different kind of thing. Movies are still dealing with a star like stable though the stables dont exist anymore but thats how it happens so if you do a movie with a star youll do the casting parts around that character. The problem is for black and brown people in this country theres a ton of materials we can talk about other than slavery and integration and things that have to do with civil rights of the 60s theres other stories we can tell. For us like don cheadle who is not doing a movie on miles davis, thats the thing that makes me happy. Trevor celebrating stories and characters that go beyond the flights of suffering. Exactly. Trevor if you were papa pope in real life. Id have a bodyguard there. Trevor if rowan pope who controls everything behind the scenes in washington, if he was seeing this election taking place right now how do you think he would react . To be honest i think he would do a lot of investigating in term of who donald trump actually is and then decide what needs to be done about that. Trevor i watch the show enough to know not to pry further. The Season Finale is may 12th on abc. Abc. At our house, were always down for more. Case in point our handcrafted skydiving chamber.
