Transcripts For CNNW The 20240703

Get one win day. Reporter thats right. Trump had filed this Emergency Motion today, asking for the delay of the trial. But they also wanted a delay of this lower courts decision that cancelled the Business Certificates of the company. The full scope of that is really still unknown. This one judge panel, associate Justice Peter held artemis about 15 minutes. He said he wasnt going to stop the trial, which is now its fifth day. He said he will halt the cancellation of the certificates, because he noted it is unclear if this would include people being forced to sell their private homes based on the ruling. There will be additional legal arguments on this matter. But trumps team is ultimately appealing that ruling that found that trump was engaged in persistent fraud for a decade by filing false Financial Statements to get better terms on insurance and loans. Back to the trial in the building behind you. Trumps son, eric, came up a lot today. What was revealed there . Reporter he did. The former controller of the Trump Organization was on the stand all day. He was in charge of putting together the values for the various properties that were on the Financial Statements. And what he testified that at least in three different properties, specifically the one in seven springs, the Family Compound here in new york, he describes to the judge how he had used the to come up with a value for this, he had included seven mansions that were going to be built on the property but they had not been built yet, yet they included the value of these mansions in the value of the overall property. And he testified that he did that after speaking on the phone with eric trump. He also was talking about some valuations for two other golf courses, and he said that he came up with these valuations, which the state says are inflated, after being on the phone with trump. He is on the stand. And on tuesday, allen weiss, will begin his testimony. Appreciate it. That is just one development in a cascade of news about trumps various legal troubles. Remember, he is facing 91 criminal charges across four separate criminal investigations. Now trumps lawyers are testing new tactics to try to get him out of some of his most egregious charges. The first one is a hail mary. Trump will have to win the 2024 president ial election, assume office, and pardon himself, assuming that would be constitutional. And assuming it is, poof, Absolved Of Federal charged. Though, trump said its, quote, very unlikely he would do that, if you take him at his word. Second scenario, trump would have to not win the election. Yesterday lawyers asked the judge to dismiss all of the criminal charges in that case, citing immunity since he was president of the United States at the time of the alleged crimes. Now, this is untested and unprecedented. But various legal experts say the argument is well laid out and could actually, possibly, work. Take a listen to cnns elie honig. We do know that a president has civil immunity, meaning he cannot be sued for anything he did within the broad parameters of his job. What we dont know, the Supreme Court has said we dont know, is whether that applies to a criminal charge. If he wins, this case goes away. If he was successful in the Immunity Case for this, would this have ramifications for the georgia trials. Oh, yes. If trump wins this one, gets the Supreme Court to say youre immune from prosecution for jack smiths face, fani willis case is all but gone. Interesting. Do you agree with elie . Could this work . If youre talking about trumps likelihood of success between zero and zero. If youre talking about whether hes able to maneuver into the United States Supreme Court, theres a better chance. He would have an outside chance of getting the United States Supreme Court to rule in his favor, which, as we noted, is an untested question thats never before been answered in our nations constitutional history. Obviously if he gets to the u. S. Supreme court, hes got friends there. Hes got a lot of friends there. The makeup of the Supreme Court, conservative majority 63. Right is very much in his favor just from that standpoint. Look, the former president has tried various flavors of the argument before. He was trying to stop his aides, his closest advisers in the white house, from having to testify in congress because he claimed that he had absolute immunity. And that fell short. Ketanji brown jackson, she was at the time appeals court, and she wrote, president s are not kings. And i think, you know, that is something that is, i think, going to be one of the things youre going to hear a lot if this ever makes it to the Supreme Court. It is the question, right . Just because youre the president doesnt mean you get to just do anything you want, right . The argument he makes in this brief yesterday is that because he was overseeing the Justice Department, the Justice Department is in charge of investigating fraud, everything he was doing was trying to execute his office. What jack smith says is that he went beyond that. You disregarded what the Justice Department said, and then you basically were doing this for your campaign. Yeah. And even if oel donny trump rectangles out of that mess, it would not apply to the classified documents case because he was not president in that case. Sarah, there are also developments in that case, the classified documents case. Trump are using the delay, delay, delay tactic. They say theyve been too busy with the new york fraud trial. They have a lot of issues. Donald trump has a lot of legal problems and he deserves to have his lawyers focused on different cases. So, they should come one after another and there is a lot of evidence and a lot of it is difficult to access and youre dealing with classified evidence in this case. Is that going to play with aileen cannon, the judge in this case . It may very well. She seems like someone who has been much more amenable to at least consider and potentially buy in to the trump teams arguments for delays than what we have in washington, d. C. With judge tanya chutkan, who has not been as willing to buy into the trump teams delays. Its a complicated case in florida. Youre dealing with classified information. But if its going to work somewhere, that seems most likely. Do you agree . I do agree. I think on the federal side, on the january 6th thing, trumps decision to push the absolute immunity argument, which i agree its an uphill battle, but i think its smart strategically. Immediately appealable, so that is going to give the trump Team Leverage to argue that the january 6th case needs to be put on hold while the courts of appeals sort out these thorny questions of absolute immunity. Trump, i think, is playing a smart game. He probably knows hes not going to win in the District Court and court appeals, but its going to eat up the clock. There might be a pot of gold in the Supreme Court. Back to the classified documents, there was a Big Development with abc news and the New York Times report on trump, you know, the old saying, loose lips sink ships. Literally in this case. Abc news reported trump allegedly discussed sensitive Nuclear Submarine information with a maralago member after he left office. The australian billionaire, named anthony pratt. Quote, pratt described trumps remarks to at least 45 other people, including six journalists, 11 of his companys employees, ten australian officials, and three former australian Prime Ministers. Who knows who those 45 people went on to talk to. These specific allegations were not included in jack smiths original indictment of trumps handling of classified documents. Could it be added . Of course it could be. Theyve already done one superseding indictment in this case. I think it would be surprising to see them come up with another superseding indictment. At cnn weve confirmed that pratt in this case had an interview by the special counsel office. He is on this very long list of potential witnesses who could come up at trial, people that donald trump is not allowed to talk to directly. So, this could be the kind of thing that we hear about in terms of how donald trump likes to brag about the various information he learned about when he was president. If you look at these stories, talks about sensitive information. We dont know exactly, was this classified information. Is he providing Accurate Information . We do know the member of maralago are apparently very chatty. By the time it got to these people at the Justice Department that tracked down the message, its probably been distorted beyond recognition. Its like a game of telephone. By it made it to the 45th person on the chain, god only knows what people are hearing about our nuclear capabilities. This is among some of the most sensitive secrets there are. And how Cavalier Trump is about handing, his handling of some of the nations most guarded secrets. And i think people like pratt by the way, hes not alone. Theres a number of other people who witnessed this who will be able to be used by the prosecution to make that argument exactly. This is why some people like Maggie Haber Hahn and others say this is the one to watch. This is the one that could be the most exemployees skpif damaging. Good to see all of you. Have a great weekend. Theres what trump does and what were covering that. Theres also what trump says. Next were going to talk about trumps most inflammatory statements in just the last week. Saying that migrants are terrorists, suggesting that looters or shoplifters should be shot. Were going to let you hear for it yourself. Stay with us. In our 2024 lead, we have seen how former President Donald Trump words can have consequential damage. Look at his words on the day of the january 6th insurrection. It is that rhetoric that trump is using once again. I want you to take a listen to the language that mr. Trump uses here, talking about immigration with the national pulse. Its a right leaning website. Hes specifically talking about undocumented immigrants coming into the United States. We know they come from prisons. We know they come from mental institutions, insane asylums. We know theyre terrorists. Its poisoning the blood of our country. Its so bad. And people are coming in with disease. Its poisoning the blood of our country. And then here is trump last week speaking at a Republican Convention in california, talking about shoplifters and looters. If you rob a store, you can fully expect to be shot, as you are leaving that store. Shot. You heard the applause from the Convention Goers there. These are just some of the recent examples of mr. Trump, his rhetoric getting more and more out there. Here to discuss, former new jersey governor, republican president ial candidate chris christie. Lets posit, of course, governor christie, that, you know, obviously crime in this country is a serious issue. Obviously the mess at the border is a serious issue. And i dont want to belittle either of those. But i do i want to talk about the rhetoric here. Does it concern you, Hearing Terms like poising the blood of our country when were talking about immigrants . Yeah, look, this is, you know, one of the biggest problems with donald trump. And, you know, in the end hes taking serious issues, like you said, like immigration and security at the border, like crime and Law And Order in our country, and hes demeaning them and diminishing them by using this kind of stuff. This is what he did in 2016, jake, when he said, you know, about the immigration issue, he was going to build a big beautiful wall across the entire border and mexico was going to pay for it. Set expectations that he didnt come close to meeting, and also at the same time, gave a poisonous rhetoric to it that made the country more angry and more divisive. And, you know, fact is, the problems of looting and robbing in our cities are huge problems. But the way to function them is not shooting people. The way to fix them is to arrest them and send them to jail. Right. Thats not happening with a lot of local prosecutors. And what ive said is, when im president , the Attorney General of the United States will instruct the United States attorneys in these particularly dangerous cities to go in there and enforce the law against Violent Crime like looting and robbery and assault and all the rest, and well prosecute them federally. Thats the way to do it in a system of laws, not vigilante zwris. So, the poisoning the blood language, theres an article in the New York Times today, people talking about that being evocative of language used by hitler in mein kampf. Its been pointed out by the head of the adl that no one thinks donald trump is a historian, although he has there have been reports of him reading mein kampf in the past. But the language of dehumanizing people is one that a lot of individuals find troubling when youre talking about immigrants, that theyre poisoning the blood of the country. All of that type of rhetoric, jake, is beneath the office that he held and that he wishes to hold again. We need a president who shares our values. We need a president who is not going to speak that way. This projects our image all around the world. And its an awful image to project, to be saying those things. And like i said, it doesnt lead to fixing the problems. You know, when i travel around and talk to voters, what theyre most upset about is the governments not fixing their pro problems. When they see the Fiasco On Capitol Hill this week with Kevin Mccarthy being vacated from the speakership, then they hear that donald trump maybe wants to become speaker, then he doesnt, that kind of circus doesnt to the country. Seriously trying to solve the huge problems we have with Law And Order, with immigration, with inflation, with Educational Standards being diminished. There are big problems in this country we have to deal with. And rhetoric like that is not only divisive and ugly, it is counterproductive to us getting the job done. On the subject of immigration, how would you secure the border, while ensuring that any migrant who is legally able to seek asylum is able to do so and making sure that these individuals are treated humanely, if they are able to legally seek asylum . Well, you know, for the people who all say, im going to secure the border and make it stronger but dont say anything beyond that, once again, theyre selling out in a way that is just pandering to people. And there are rightful concerns about the border. So, lets talk about it, jake. Over the last 11 months, the average has been 200,000 apprehensions at the border by customs and Border Patrol. You know how many beds we have for people who we want to detain . 38,000. Total. And we have 200,000 a month people being apprehended. We cant fix this problem right now that way. So, we need to do a combination of things. Id double the number of beds we have available to detain people. I would triple the number of Immigration Judges we have to move these Asylum Hearings along much more quickly. And id add 10,000 customs and Border Patrol officers. And on day one sign an Executive Order to send the National Guard down there to help supplement them, especially on the issue of drugs getting across our border, since we had 110,000 people die last year of overdose. Then, jake, we have to get to a meritbased immigration system, where we incentivize filling the jobs in this country with people who want to come here and work. And we pick them on merit. Places we need help, we bring people in legally to be able to fill those jobs and help to grow our economy. That, all in combination, will help to secure the border because it will disincentivize illegal crossings, will get those people processed much more quickly. We wont just release them for four or five years. Thats the stuff we need to do, jake. And thats a realistic plan, as opposed to shooting people stone cold dead. Right, another comment from mr. Trump. Republican president ial candidate and former thats a comment from governor desantis. That was ron desantis. Sorry. I get them confused. Chris christie, thank you so much. Appreciate it. Up next, the other b word, the one that President Biden likes to use. Stay with us. In our 2024 lead, cue the music. Yes, yes. Its Election Night in america. Not yet. But it will be. President joe biden is trying to make the sell, again, on the economy. The white house has been pushing the bidenomics message for months now. Voters dont appear to be buying it yet. 52 said they would trust trump more on the economy. Only 28 would trust biden more. Those are not good numbers for President Biden. President biden says the media is part of the problem. You all are not the happiest people in the world, what you report. And i mean it sincerely. It gets more legs when youre reporting something thats negative. Im one of the happiest people in the world. Thats not fair. Im very happy. But the point hes making, the new jobs report is very positive. The strong jobs market, however, means that the Federal Reserve might continue to increase Interest Rates because theyre no longer afraid of sending the economy into a recession by doing so. And so many in the white house today criticizing cnns framing in this article, which is on the cnn home page, still. The article says its an analysis. Heres why the shockingly good jobs report is going to cost you. By the way, its an accurate analysis. I get it. You dont like it. You think were nasty. Our panel is here to discuss. Karen finney. Yes. Have at it. Im happy. I know. Im happy youre happy. Look, i get it. We jump on the negative. Its our job. But it is true that a positive jobs report means that the fed wont worry as much and might continue to raise Interest Rates and people are going to continue to feel squeezed by both inflation and high Interest Rates. Unfortunately thats part of the upsidedown world we find ourselves in the economic situation. It is why we have a summer of workers calling for higher wages and striking to get them. The reality is, yes, job creation is very strong. A lot of the traditional Economic Indicators look good. But costs are not keeping up with wages. We know that. Wages arent keeping up with costs. Yeah, sorry. The other way around. But what i would also say is i wish reminding people that part of what President Biden was trying to do was to continue to control the things that he can. So, we reduce costs for prescription drugs. In build back better, that didnt pass, we had child care. We had paid family leave. These are issues that are affecting american people, that are affecting their daily lives. President cant control a lot of costs. Talk about what you can control. That is part of the rationale for reelection. I think Media Criticism is always valid. But one of the things you have to remember is its a terrible message. Thats one of the biggest problems that the white house has right now is really getting a strong offensive message about the economy. And one of the things thats challenging there is that, you know, the, sort of, draw on another phrase is that Public Opinion doesnt have a law degree. It doesnt have an Economics Degree either. Its all about how people feel. They feel with inflation and high gas prices that the economy is not tracking in the right direction. I used to work at a network down the street, rhymes with rocks business. Had on the jobs report. Theyre trying to poke holes in it. The biggest hole youre poking in it is look at the industries where the job growth is coming into leisure and hospitality, government, health care. What about folks in the media sector that have been laid off in Big Companies and stuff like that . Thats where you can poke holes in it. Like you were mentioning, the messaging part of this, they cant seem to get the messaging part of this right. Gas prices are technically going down. I think they may be below 3. 50 to 3. 20 a gallon by the end of the october. Thats the projections. There are good economic predictors for the president. There arent, in terms of the messaging, some democrats have said, maybe he needs to start the campaign earlier. Which is that right now the campaigns position is that they arent going to go out in full force until early next year, potentially march of next year. And hes going out in his president ial capacity, but he doesnt have surrogates going out there. Theyre not, like, full force making the campaign argument. I 100 agree with that. They should be campaigning right now because everywhere else, its starting. Thats a good point. Speaking of the campaigns, florida gov nar ron desantis taking advantage of all the chaos among House Republicans, as a way of contrasting himself. Take a listen. What they have in d. C. Is that the trick theatrics, performative. Im a leader. Im not an entertainer. He got that last part right. Hes not an entertainer. Hes using that to his advantage. Looking at matt gaetz, what are they achieving . I actually am reducing deficits in florida. Im actually achieving stuff. And all of this stuff is just, you know he didnt say clown show. But you know what i mean. Its a circus. Its the right message. The question i have, is it soon enough . Is he doing it at the right time . It might be a little too late. This should have been a message he was carrying from day one, from his announcement all the way through. Thats one of the things desantis has had a problem with. He didnt know all the House Republicans in florida were going to endorse trump. He knew he was going to be facing donald trump and knew he was going to be facing a d. C. Hes going to have to run as somebody whos going to change d. C. And finally drain the swamp. Is this a message hes going to stick to all the way through the first caucuses in iowa. That will be the test. Hes also going after trump on the age thing a little bit. Take a listen. This is him at the end of an event when sheriffs in florida yesterday. We need a president thats got energy. We need a president thats going to be Full Throttle for eight years. We dont need any more we dont need any more president s that have lost the zip on their fastball. Woah. The phillies havent lost their zip thank you very much. I knew that would get you, jake. I love it. I live in florida. Im the florida resident here, right . Desantis is incredibly popular in the state. And i would argue its because of the candidate that ran against him for governor, not because of ron desantis. Back to his policy stuff, i know people in teachers unions. My motherinlaw is a teacher down there. They love some of the things he has done for the teachers union. But he does not translate nationally. I come at this more from the messaging standpoint we were just talking about with democrats. Ron desantis has a huge issue when it comes to primaries outside florida and other states. He is not electable. He doesnt come off with that personality. What you just mentioned, kevin, about him hammering this stuff home from the early. Like yogi berra, its getting late early. He should have been doing this stuff months ago, and thats why people have jumped to the 7 . Raising the age issue is something nikki haley has been doing the whole time. And it hasnt helped her surpass donald trump. And im really skeptical its going to help ron desantis. When were talking about the age issue with President Biden, which some voters have raised to me that ive talked to. On their messaging, im curious if theyre going to lean on what recent generals have talked about, even some of the generals youve talked about, jake, which is theyve come out saying Behind Closed Doors biden has substantive conversations oh, milley said this. Yes. Biden has substantive conversations. Shes sharp. He reads all his materials, something we know trump didnt do, he didnt read his briefing material. So, is the Biden Campaign going to lean in and try to market that. The one thing about trump is he is running his 2016 playbook all over again. And it seems like the republicans in this primary are having the same challenges as the republicans in 2015 16 were having. And still nobody has figured out, how do you go after him effectively. Nikki haley got a little bit of a bump. No one has voted yet. Next, a mass exodus that needs the worlds attention. How one countrys thirst for power has left Tens Of Thousands of innocent people on the run fearing for their lives. Stay with us. In our world lead, a mass exodus sparked by fears of Ethnic Cleansing in a troubled part of the world. The countries of armenia and azerbaijan are bought of russia, and they are longtime enemies. This new crisis involves what used to be a selfgoverning armenian region called nagornokarabakh. It selfcollapsed a week ago. Virtually all of its 120,000 residents have packed up and fled. And theyre wondering how theyre going to survive. Matthew chance is in armenia talking with them. And we need to warn you, some of the video in this report is bloody and disturbing. Reporter this is where the most desperate from nagornokarabakh are surviving, abandoning their livelihoods and homes for the safety of this refugee base. Entire families have come, like the banons who say their remote village was bombarded, forcing them to flee. It was so painful to leave, especially for my children, she tells me. We were farmers. We had everything. But it was a massive war, and we had no choice, she says. In border towns like this, where authorities are distributing supplies to evacuees, some spent a lifetime fighting for a homeland thats now lost. As azerbaijani government says if you live in one of those villages, they will protect your rights. Do you believe them . [ speaking in a nonenglish language ] reporter they will never protect us, theyre lying, suzannah insists. Ill never forgive them for what they did to us, she adds. There are some with far more than emotional scars. We visited one hospital filled with victims of a makeshift Gas Station Blast in nagornokarabakh, where people have been frantically gathering fuel. [ speaking in a nonenglish language ] reporter i can hear screaming now. Whats the screaming . As the doctor described the carnage, you can hear the screams of agony from the wards. Can we go and see that man . Reporter in almost every room here, theres an horrific story of pain and loss. 25yearold victor asked us to hide the burns on his face. [ speaking in a nonenglish language ] it was like hell, he told me, and now i dont want anyone to see. His friend, mikhail, says he lost five members of his family in the chaotic fleeing. But no one seems to care, he tells us. When it comes to us, i think the world must be blind. Well, jake, it is painful to watch what these people have been going through. Its also unfortunately very hard to imagine the dramatic situation that weve experienced in the past few weeks will be reversed. Winter is going to be here soon. Whats going to happen to all the refugees . Reporter well, its going to get tougher. But its not like in other refugee situations, perhaps, where theres tent cities where the weather is more of a problem. A lot of these people have been absorbed into the local Armenian Community in armenia, in peoples Homes N Family homes, in hotels paid for by the government. And those that havent are in the process of doing so. But those are just shortterm remedies. In the longer term, these people are going to need jobs. The children are going to need schools. Theyre going to need to rebuild their lives. And thats a very long road for these people ahead of them. So, armenia and azerbaijan are longtime enemy. They were at war as recently as 2020. How will the collapse of nagornokarabakh, how will it affect the relations . Could this prompt another war . Reporter i mean, it could. And there are lots of concerns in armenia right now that an emboldened azerbaijan, with the military initiative, having, you know, kind of, used Military Force to take over nagornokarabakh, will press forward and will perhaps see some armenia territory in an attempt to connect up some areas of its country. So, thats a real concern here. Theres also a concern about political instability inside armenia. The Prime Minister of the country has been harshly criticized by opponents saying he mishandled this process, this whole situation. Russia also has failed to live up to its security guarantees. So, its a very volatile situation in this unstable region, jake. Thank you so much for doing this report. Cnns Matthew Chance in armenia. Coming up next, opt to another part of the world and an incredibly daring assignment for another cnn journalist. Information youre probably not easily persuaded to switch mobile providers for your business. But what if we told you its possible that comcast Business Mobile can save you up to 75 a year on your wireless bill versus the big three carriers . Its true. Plus, when you buy your first line of mobile, you get a second line free. There are no Term Contracts or line activation fees. And you can bring your own device. Oh, and all on the most reliable 5g Mobile Network nationwide. Wireless that works for you. Its not just possible. Its happening. We are about to get a unique perspective of the famous yet quite controversial Running Of The Bulls in spain. Its a tradition thats been going on for literally centuries. It attracts spectators from around the world. This year david culver will take us to pamplona. Its a bit terrifying because youre starting to think, im committed, im on, im going to stay on. As we gather as a group we kind of find our positioning. Its crazy to think that youre standing your ground after first the bells and then that rocket goes off. And youre holding your ground. Im listening to denniss command. And cnns david culver joins me now. David, what was the experience like . Would you do it again . Reporter it was wild and no. Yeah, once is definitely enough, jake. It was, you know, kind of a gametime position for me if i would actually run. I thought as we were going through this assignment we wanted to understand the cultural traditions behind it, why its lasted after so many centuries. When youre there, you start to feel the adrenaline and the crowds momentum. Theres really eight days of running. Day one i watched. Day two, sure, ill do this. I ended up i think satisfied that once was enough. Physically i couldnt do anymore after that. It was something that i think so many people look at its people that are intoxicated. There are foreigners. What weve found in the documentary you have locals, deeply passionate about this, and then youve got foreigners who are going year after year who carry the same type of respect, jake. So i could talk for an hour about my theory about this, which has to do with the great undiscussed subject of death, which awaits for all of us and theres a thrill in cheating it like sky diving, Bungee Jumping and all of that. Do you think thats why people run with the bulls, the idea of cheating it . From your perspective, how dangerous is it actually . So i can tell you from my perspective, there was no desire to try to cheat death. Im not one to push it. I think i got caught up in the excitement of it all. There are those, youre right, they want to feel it. In fact, its interesting. One of the gentlemen we profile in this, dennis, hes a combat veteran. He had just come off a tour in iraq. As he stepped off there after a year of serving in the middle east, i needed something that felt like another challenge. Youre right. That was exactly the same threshold he was trying to meet. As far as the danger, i mean, i just got out of a boot after a couple of months dealing with a fractured foot and partially dislocated finger. Its very dangerous since its been recorded in the 1900s. Theyve tried to make it safer over the years really. We delve into all of this this sunday. I cant wait to see it. A lot of veterans take up motorcycle riding, which is also quite dangerous. David culver, cant wait to watch it. His report on the whole story with Anderson Sunday Night only on cnn. There is no crying in baseball unless, of course, the Atlanta Braves beat the phils this weekend and i will be quite weepy. Ill explain why my writers felt the need to be clever with that movie line next. As the great philosopher steve martin said, some people have a way with words and other people not have way. For those whose lines from their scripts are remembered forever, perhaps such immortality is their own reward, but if not, maybe this book will help. Youre going to need a bigger boat. Theyre some of the most iconic hollywood one liners. Just follow the money. Living on long after the credits roll. There is no place like home. Lines that make us laugh. One million dollars. Lines that make us cry. You had me at hello. And lines that young people quote today even be if theyre not quite sure where they came from. Im as mad as hell and im not going to take this anymore. And now these quotes are immortalized in brian abrams new book you talking to me . What would be a way to examine all of the movie lines bouncing around in our heads and culture for so long . What started as a Passion Project during Covid Quarantine essentially i went be down a Ran Witt Hole and spoke with the actor and the films editor and Screen Writer and director tell me about it, stud. And just analyzed or over analyzed the meaning, if there is any meaning whatsoever to this line. Ill make him an offer you cant refuse. Now a deep dive book three years in the making. We recognize that there hadnt been a book, or at least for a long time there hadnt been a book that had explored Hollywood History from this angle of movie lines and how theyve affected us. Yippe kiya, mother [ bleep ]. Taking a closer look at movies from the last century. Heres looking at you, kid. And exploring the deep Cultural Impact of them. Nobody gets by this. But as with many things in hollywood aunt em. Some of the lines had to be left on the cutting room floor. I see dead people. I had the most difficult experience making the distinction between lines that, you know, are popular, lines that we love and then lines that actually made some sort of Cultural Impact. Roads, where theyre going, we dont need roads
