display, publicly. trump being trump, he has already done that, according to political comedy duo, the good liars. they visited the trump tower and spotted a classified folder being used as decoration. but however questionable trump s handling of highly sensitive documents, he could still win over a florida judge with his request for a special master. that judge, such a rule at any moment whether trump gets his wish. joining me now, andy crowl, investigative reporter for propublica. and author of a death on w street, the murder of seth rich and the age of conspiracy. along with ali, congressman for the daily beast and author of go back to where you came from and other helpful recommendations on how to become american. i want to begin with you. last night, trump borrowed a phrase straight from biden and accused democrats of, quote, assaulting democracy. we have seen the sort of
them back. this is american voices. hello, everyone i m julio castro in for alicia menendez. we begin this hour with president trump s rage against democracy. and those calling it what it truly is, a danger to democracy. saturday in wilkes-barre, pennsylvania, trump ranted for more than two hours at a rally for pennsylvania s gubernatorial candidate doug mastriano and gop senate candidate doctor oz. it was the former guy s first public rally and speech since the fbi search at mar-a-lago last month. as you can imagine, it quickly devolved into nothing more than a tirade against the man who beat him, president joe biden. he called biden an enemy of the state and the fbi and the department of justice, vicious monsters. well it s pretty much always the case, trump is clearly more angry at biden-than-normal
