Oh, good. Yeah, listen, you want to say better late than never, but that's probably not good enough either. There are journalists, Jake Tapper was one of them, who attacked other journalists who wrote about Biden's mental state. And I think in the reckoning of this, We have to ask some questions. And the basic questions are twofold.
Why did the hierarchy of the Democratic Party and this cabal of White House aides, we're talking about dozens and dozens of people, maybe hundreds, think that this was okay to present the president as a person they knew that wasn't realistic? And the second thing is, and this is what you're getting to, Megan, why did the media go along with it? How did they rationalize so much of the media?
How did they rationalize it to themselves? You know, and what and what are they going to do better going forward? The Wall Street Journal wrote before that debate a story about Joe Biden's diminished capacity was attacked from like the paper was attacked from the white podium by the White House press secretary. You remember this, Megan? And we've talked about on our show.
What are they saying about that now? And they ought to be they ought to be required to answer this on the record.
That's right. But at least but it was before the debate.
Right. It was June. And all these questions. But earlier in June, the debate was also in June. All these questions afterwards. Kamala Harris was never asked even after President Biden pulled out of the race and wasn't run. She was never asked the question.
We the three of us would scratch our heads because the question you want to ask is, Madam Vice President, are you really telling the American people that you saw something on June 27th that you had never seen before? And this was the kind. So this this cover up existed, continued even after President Biden pulled out of the campaign.
Well, that's why you want for real history to have name sources. And then you want to talk to, you know, if you're doing a real history of this and not a quick book, and I'm not trying to criticize these guys. They're not really writing history. They're writing kind of the first draft of this revisionism.
You talk to everybody in the room, and I don't know if George Clinton was the source or not, but is this guy really trying to say that Biden's fine? Because that's not, I don't think people, I don't think that's sustainable.
You can't get rid of a president because he didn't recognize a movie star.
Can we go back to that stutter thing for a minute? Yeah. Do you remember this cropped up, you know, when he was in national office? I covered this guy back in the Senate. He spoke, he'd give Fidel Castro-length speech. I once had a lunch with him and he spoke for 35 minutes without even breathing. I never heard this stutter thing until recently.
And then it was, it was, it was sort of offered up as his excuse. And then, well, he had, he would have a cold. They said in the debate, he was still tired from an overseas trip that happened three weeks earlier.
They just kept coming up with these new excuses. And I mean, to step back a minute from that George Clooney anecdote, what you expect from a press corps is to be more skeptical. And they weren't. And so Tapper's blowing the whistle on that. And as you point out, he's blowing the whistle on himself, too. So maybe all these vignettes aren't perfect.
And I would have liked to see on the record sources. But let's take a step back. You had a president who was compromised and a political party that decided to hide that fact and a mainstream media that went along with it. That's the big story here. And I guess I'm glad Jake Tapper wrote this book.
That's what Tom's been saying.
I think that, I think that what Andy said is right and mild. I don't think it's silly. I think it's ugly. This, this character attacking these people, they, they let in about 50 people or so. That's how many, uh, white farmers are killed every year on their own in their own houses. Um, in this campaign to terrorize them. And so they want to come here to be safe.
And you let in, in the previous administration, four or five million people who are economic refugees, but not refugees in the sense that the law envisions. And these people are. They're afraid for their own safety. And there are rallies, you can find them on YouTube, of South African, a political party calling to kill the Boers. That's what these Afrikaners are called. And these are white people.
Some woman was on the... MSNBC, who used to work in the Bonn administration, said, yeah, they should go back where they came from to Germany. Well, of course, they didn't come from Germany. They came from Holland about 350 years ago. Most of the Afrikaners came to South Africa, you know, 10 generations ago or something. They came before the United States was a country.
This has been their country and they're being they're afraid for their safety. Appropriating land is just one aspect of it, Megan. There are calls for them every day at rallies to be murdered. And many of them are being murdered. And I just I hope I hope a prominent Democrat steps forward and sort of puts an end to this because it's it's it's disgusting and vile.
Racism is always ugly, no matter who's doing it.
