Admit whether or not he is going to concede the election. How is this guy still so close in the race . I cant explain it. The other thing is that he is at 46 and that is his ceiling. The real question is, and im sure youll get into this in your show, can President Biden make up the ground in his seeming lack of support . There is more than the polls register. It becomes more crystallized whats at stake for our democracy. Theres too much at stake, too much to lose this time around. Great to see you. Enjoy your evening off, and good evening, tonight. We are now six months from the greatest and most important test of our democracy. If it survives depends on you, the voter. Congresswoman dean on the demand that by the do more to stop the war in gaza. Israel shatters al jazeeras operation in israel. Their Managing Director is here. Lets do it. We are officially six months from the most consequential election of our time. Donald trump through a private donor event last night at mara lago and compared the Biden White House to the secret police force of nazi germany, calling it a gestapo administration. Thats precious in the wake of his bombshell Time Magazine interview where he outlined his ambitions for a second term which includes mass deportation of immigrants, sending the National Guard to city struggling with crime, and stacking his cabinet with election deniers. We get it. This whole, i know you are but what am i thing is not surprising. Its not new. We know that trump is a master of deception, a master of projection, as well. Its a sad state of affairs, when six months to an election, the front runners are labeling the other authoritarian. Its not trump. As the New York Times reports, a change of a second trump turn term feel so real that many are wondering where he might go if he wins. Portugal, says a former member of congress and australia says a former agency director. Canada, says a Biden Administration official, france, says liberal columnist, poland, says the former investigator. A lot of this is Gallows Humor but some of these people are serious and they have every right to be. A slight 46 to 44 lead over President Biden, and in that same poll, 64 of registered voters say they are interested in the upcoming election. Thats the lowest number in nearly 20 years. Even if trump loses, we know, and his cronies know, that they will not accept it. They did not last time, so why would they now . Heres his daughterinlaw and the rnc cochair going after mailin voting in nevada earlier today. I see that the rnc and the Trump Campaign are filing a lawsuit in a Battleground State to stop counting ballots past election day. You can have ballots counted after elections are over. We want election day to be the last day those ballots can be counted. The mac then you have this guy, South Carolina senator, tim scott, doug burgum, who are both leading contenders for trumps vp and he refused to commit to accepting a 2024 results and wont admit what happened in 2020, that donald trump lost. Will you accept the Election Results of 2024 . I look forward to donald trump as president. I believe that joe biden won the election, because of covid there was a huge number of irregularities because we changed a bunch of rules in certain precincts. We pressed tim scott six times to answer that question. Both of those are in contention, with election day in six months we should ask ourselves how its possible how this race is even a dead heat. A deeper question, they have a very realistic shot at the white house. We have a penalty kick off the show. A former gop communications director. This gestapo comment from trump, again, not a surprise. He knows no lows with how he talks about our political leaders and our system but is this really the narrative, is it done with a specific tactic in mind . We know that donald trump is the master of projection. He always does this, he accuses his opponent or critics of the exact same thing hes doing, so what this does is that it inoculates his followers from the attack and he will repeat it over and over again because most of them have no idea what hes actually accusing his opponent of. He bragged about low information voters. They are fed this flow of lies, constantly. Repetition creates reality and perception is reality. Thats why trump does this. He knows these are legitimate and he attacks his opponent. This wont work, i dont think. The people who decide this election. A couple of Percentage Points of people, this nonsense from trump, i dont think they will believe that, but unfortunately , those behaviors are normalized. This is not the time to shrug it off, okay . We cannot normalize what trump is telling us. It dictators will lie about what theyve done and will tell you the truth. We need to believe them and trump is telling us every day and we need to believe in. We see this very embarrassing, humiliating way, had Donald Trumps conditioning the nominees he will select. A handful of Potential Trump Vps include folks like marco rubio, tim scott, doug birdman, this unhinged private donor event, when you see how they debase themselves at some point or the other. A part of being, the crowd of sycophants. All of these are a requirement and the consequence is next time around, you might not have mike pence, who gives the democracy away forever. This is a litmus test, right . Making sure the issues he faced with mike pence in terms of not anointing a loser of the election, he is making sure it doesnt happen. They are doing this charade where they have to basically prove themselves as supplicants to trump. Tim scott did it today and he refused to answer six separate times and its a sad state of the Republican Party that they would not accept any results of elections where they do not win but that is what you have to do. Tim scott knows he has to go out there and debase himself and its a race to the bottom with everybody else. There is no deaths, in terms of what depth these people will go to, to prove themselves loyal to the guy. It may not move the needle and you know this better than i do but if you play enough for democrats, youll hopefully get some democrat who may want to get this election out, who may not feel the risk is as serious as we all think and believe it to be. That is who you need to target in the selection to make sure the folks on the democratic side are not passive and just sit this out thinking the other side are normal people and we can survive four more years of trump. Correct. Its not only does democrats but its also, we call them the bannon line republicans, nikki haley, those who are uncomfortable with the direction the party has gone in but they look at the democrat and dont like whats going on over there, either. They could feel disenfranchised and we cannot afford that either. Particularly, with moderate women. Women, the rights of womens bodily autonomy and whats happening with a womans right to choose, this has become a major issue for moderate women, and the fathers of daughters looking at whats going on and im not comfortable with a donald Trump Presidency or republicans are trying to do with my daughters rights and healthcare. These are the people that decide this election, wisconsin, arizona, north carolina, michigan, elena, these are the people who will decide and i cautioned folks not to get discouraged when they see the polling. Six months out, all kinds of things could happen and most americans are not paying attention. They are living their lives and not paying attention to things the way that we are but there is a responsibility and im glad President Biden did this saturday for the media to make sure they continue, and you guys are doing this, explaining the stakes because that is most important, depending how the media shapes things, the horserace and treating this like a traditional election is doing a disservice to voters and democracy. All of these things combined to make a difference when folks have to really understand the choice. I think they will come home to the side of democracy but we must stay diligent. Ryan, im curious to get your thoughts on how you see it as well. How are we in such a dead heat of a race even after january 6th and multiple trump indictments and everything we know that donald trump and the state of the Republican Party . What the Republican Party benefits from is this ecosystem that completely makes up for, compensates for what nixon would have had to go through in office. They saw that and said this will never happen again, we will make sure to run cover for our guy if he is steeped in the criminality that donald trump is and from the moment trump was found out after the election for what he had done, they basically engaged in this whole disinformation campaign. It cost fox news 780 million and still, they barrel ahead. Of course its not enough and the fact that 46 of Americans Still believe what is being shoveled to them by fox news and rightwing media and by donald trump himself is a testament to how effective they have been. It wasnt enough for the Average Fox Viewer but enough for tucker carlson, they cut him loose pretty quickly after he cost them that money. Stick around, we have more to discuss. Next, marjorie try their green Marjorie Taylor green will try to oust the speaker again and she is being called an idiot for doing so. Every time i dried it only takes a minute.

But uncontrollable movements called td, tardive dyskinesia, started disrupting my day. Td felt embarrassing. I felt like disconnecting. I asked my doctor about treating my td, and learned about ingrezza. Ingrezza ingrezza is clinically proven for reducing td. Most people saw results in just two weeks. People taking ingrezza can stay on most Mental Health meds. Only numberone prescribed ingrezza has simple dosing for td always one pill, once daily. Ingrezza can cause depression, suicidal thoughts, or actions in patients with huntingtons disease. Pay close attention to and call your doctor if you become depressed, have sudden changes in mood, behaviors, feelings, or have thoughts of suicide.

Report fevers, stiff muscles, or problems thinking as these may be life threatening. Sleepiness is the most common side effect. Take control by asking your doctor about ingrezza. Ingrezza this week, far right congresswoman Marjorie Taylor green is that to bring her motion to vacate Speaker Mike Johnson to the floor. If only she had support for it. Two House Republicans are backing the motion as of tonight. Here is where things get interesting. Republicans are turning on ntg, calling her ridiculous and an idiot and democrats might help wieder out by vowing to save johnsons speakership and not put frontrunners in an awkward place because now, they have to either oust their party leader who just got a stamp of approval from donald trump or toss out there All Or Nothing approach to politics and finally do what they should be doing in the first place, working with democrats for the greater good of the country. Lets start with the motion to vacate, another humiliating, all but guaranteed for her in that wing of the party. I would say so. I think that at this point, the rest of the Publican Party is recognizing that it will be more difficult for them to make this pitch to the American People that they should get another majority in the house if all theyve accomplished, this entire term is kicking out one of their speakers, a bill to save gas does that were never in danger, and a 16 month investigation into hunter biden that amounted to exactly nothing and was an abject humiliation for their party. I think getting embroiled In Another Speakership Battle A few months before election, even for these people who often take an All Or Nothing approach and recognize they would rather burn it down then even bother governing for a moment, even they recognize six months out this probably wont be to their benefit. What you make of this Unlikely Alliance . Is it too hopeful to think this could usher in a new era of bipartisanship, is this democrats basically telling mike johnson, whos your daddy . Whats at play . This is a classic, the enemy of my enemy is my friend and democrat are looking at the situation and saying okay, republicans demonstrated that they are incapable of governing. Its utter chaos, its miserable, we are accomplishing nothing, unless we can work out bipartisan deals which they have , and all these things that are important and stop the government from getting shut down again because the American People dont like this. In my opinion, democrats and the people ive talked to made the calculation that they would rather lay the blame on the chaos on republicans so they can say, we tried, we are trying to govern, we are the adults in the room and are willing to keep this weaker because we need the speaker even though mike johnson is a problematic extremist, but hes their guy and hes what weve got so we need to make it to the end of the session so we can do the peoples business which is what we were sent here to do. The congressmen were not sent there to be trolls, fox news stars, q and on Conspiracy Theory lunatics like Marjorie Taylor green always has been. It was just a matter of time before she went too far. The mean girls are not having a good week. They are having the worst week ever. Did democrats win by standing with johnson . Hayes brown wrote, saying that Marjorie Taylor green seems to be doing Hakeem Jeffries a favor because it will elevate in in the eyes of the public, hes the man who was willing to compromise to save speaker johnson. I think at this point, really, if you want any semblance of function in the house right now, its the only option. The alternative is to devolve into whatever Marjorie Taylor green wanted to be and i think democrats recognize that mike johnson will be a better option than whatever Marjorie Taylor green has in mind which would be, we are talking more extreme than mike johnson, so i think if you ask anyone the better option, its to stay far away from Marjorie Taylor green and whatever else she offers. What happens to Micah Johnson . Do you think and staying in this position with the help of democrats hurts his standing with trump and Republican Voters . So far it has not, right . Donald trump stood with him at couple weeks ago in the middle of this and it was a rebuke to Marjorie Taylor green because the blowback on donald trump and his election is Something Big dont need. It makes him look bad and i think that we have to remember that donald trump is surrounded by more professional Campaign Operatives this time around who understand how things work so in this instance i think that mike johnson was willing to take the risk because he was given assurance from trump, for now. We know that that can change at any moment but for now, he seems to
