planet and donald trump didn t do it either. but laura this is indicative of a bigger problem. everybody does with critical theory and a swipe patriarch garbage, talk to our kids in school, but this is the complete intellectual collapse of a left you are witnessing in live time. we are living through peak stupid with the left and this toxic masculinity of white patriarchy nonsense where they have devolved to judging people exclusively by their gender and skin color is a marker of the total intellectual collapse of the radical left. laura: chris, when you hear a candidate say, well, i have to pick a woman. as a woman, i find that offensive because they are not saying they are picking the best person, who have a black, white, latino, disabled, male, they are saying no, we will check a box because they think and i think it s selfish, they think it is going to help them get
always wanted to hear a candidate say. republicans have tried to turn liberal into a bad word. well, liberals ended slavery in this country. [ applause ] a republican president ended slavery. yes, a liberal republican. what happened to them? they got run out of your party. what did liberals do that was so offensive to the republican party, senator? i ll tell you what they did. liberals got women the right to vote. liberals got african-americans the right to vote. liberals created social security, and lifted millions of elderly people out of poverty. liberals ended segregation. liberals created medicare. liberals passed the clean air act, the clean water act. what did conservatives do? they opposed every one of those programs.
socialist country. [ cheers and applause ] yeah, donald trump is like every other republican businessman in america who hates socialism, except when the socialism is designed to specifically put money in their pockets, like the owners of professional sports teams who force taxpayers to pay for their stadiums. the presidential candidate who is going to beat donald trump on a debate stage is the presidential candidate who knows what to do when donald trump throws around that word socialism as if it is a crime. in the final season of nbc s the west wing when i wrote the live presidential debate episode, i had alan alda throw the world liberal at jimmy smits, and he said, what i always wanted to hear a candidate say. republicans have tried to turn liberal into a bad word. well, liberals ended slavery in this country.

now if you re running japan and you re the prime minister and you heard a candidate say that they re going to have go it alone, we ll have to pull troops out of the region and they re probably going to have to get nukes to protect themselves from north korea, you d be nervous, too. so when you hear him saying i m coming to build trust with the president-elect he s coming to find out what if h is going on. then he wants to build trust. we know one of the aides of the japanese prime minister was talking to the trump team because they were saying japan should arm itself with nukes and this trump aide said, hey, don t take everything mr. trump said on the campaign trail literally, barry. so if he were to take that thought and apply it to many other things he said on the trail, do you think that applies? are we being too literal with mr. trump? i think you have to give him a chance. in the campaign you say all kinds of things.
