CNN Panelist 2

Let's start with this. Historically, you know, you talk about Trump being sort of unpopular. What are the numbers showing us?

It's hardly the first time we've had cars on the South Lawn. Here's a video of Joe Biden driving a Jeep Rubicon around the South Lawn.

It's pretty common for the president of the United States to boost American industries, American-made products, and companies that are employing Americans. It's extremely common. He obviously has a close relationship with Elon, who, by the way, is, I think, unfairly under attack. And this company is unfairly under attack.

You have these insane people all over the country chasing people down in their Teslas in New York City. I had a friend who tried to trade his Tesla in New York the other day, and there were protesters screaming at his children.

Donald Trump has completely betrayed Ukraine. And he's stabbed them in the back, and every week he continues to twist it and drive it deeper with a new move that cuts more of their legs out from under them, that kills more civilians, that puts them more in jeopardy, that weakens NATO and helps Russia. Donald Trump does not speak for most Americans. J.D. Vance does not speak for most Americans.

Marco Rubio does not speak for most Americans. The world needs to know that most Americans respect and support Ukraine.

I don't know where you got that. I mean, I don't have time for it.

Here's the thing. Where did you grow up? Did you grow up in a place where you thought the Russians were the good guys? What part of America did you grow up in where they taught you the Russians were the good guys and our allies were the bad guys? That's the flip here that we need to continue to remind people. The Russians are the bad guys. They're raping women. They're killing children.

They're bombing cities. The Ukrainians are the noble good guys. Some ways they're more American than we are over the last couple of years. And we must stand with them in the same way we stood with the allies in World War II and since this country was founded. This is not just about Ukraine. This is about the core and the integrity of American values.

Never mind. Are you sure it's the measles?

A great big smile?

Say hello to my dotted son for me. Tell him I'll bring him some comic books and I'll see you later, dear.

You know, I think one of the things that's so important for politicians is for folks to believe what they're saying and that they're keeping their campaign promises. So I think this gives you a pretty gosh darn good idea of what may be going on. Trump's doing what he promised to do. You go back to April of 2017. It was just 46 percent.

of all Americans who said that Trump was doing what he promised to do. Compare that now to February of 2025. You know, there was a good show that was on during the 1990s called A Different World. That is what's going on right now. We're living in a different world. 70% of Americans say Trump is doing what he promised to do. Again, compare that to April of 2017, when it was just 46%.

When Americans are 24 points more likely to say that You're doing what you promised to do. It's no wonder that your net approval rating is much more likely to be on the positive side of the ledger than on the negative side.

Instead, we're pushing conspiracy theories, and some of them are killing people. It's the same thing that we have coming out of Doge. It's the reason that people are dying. It's the reason that farmers are losing their farms, because we continue to peddle conspiracy theories. It is time for us to say, Mr. President, guess what? Russia invaded Ukraine. Can we at least agree on that one?

Facts matter. Y'all, this is literally potentially putting us into an international crisis. We may be heading towards the next world war because we have a president that wants to pal around with Putin and wants to do everything to make him feel good, including lying about who invaded who.

Can you at least tell us where?

No, I mean like what branch? Like what are you doing?

Okay. Okay. Now, what's up? How are you feeling? Did you get one of those emails? Talk to us.

That's not actually what we said. That's not at all what I said. We said they are upholding the Constitution, the principles of the Constitution. And at times, we have seen... How is Trump shredding the Constitution? My God, he's like... I mean, seriously?

Do we have to give you a civics lesson that we have... I don't know. That we have... That we've put all power in the executive branch. The legislative branch, the FBI, now we're in control of the military. We're silencing media. This is what you do in a dictatorship.

I am suggesting that the president is going to put in charge somebody who is going to contravene the Constitution. And at some near point, this conversation will look very silly for you because it would be obvious. And right now, you're gaslighting. But when we get to the actual rubber of the road of this, it will be clear.

We are in effect a constitutional crisis. Warnings of an impending constitutional crisis ripped through the nation's capital.

More.

So clarifying that the government can limit access to federal funds on the basis of the applicable authorizing statutes, regulations, and terms. Essentially, yes, the government can do so in complying with regulations.

And then that the previous order does not bar both the president and much of the federal government from exercising their own lawful authorities to withhold funding without the prior approval of the district court, meaning...

Again, they can disperse the monies that they were allocated within the law, within the confines of the law, and that the government does not have to seek preclearance from the courts on terminating funding as long as they have the authority to do it.

I cannot tell you how refreshing it was to wake up this morning and hear from other Democrats and see on my post other Democrats who are just as furious and ready to frigging jump ship as I am. I do not, I'm not buying into what they're selling because after what we saw yesterday,

I'm actually glad that they pulled that yesterday because people like me who have been disillusioned by the democratic party for a long time, got to see an evilness there, got to see a diabolical side of the democratic party. Who's basically saying, we want you to fail. We don't care if you fail. It's like the scene in the wizard of Oz when they finally,

go back to see the great Oz and they pull the curtain back. And it's just a little old man just standing there. Like that doesn't have a fucking clue. I'm not going to be afraid to like voice my opinion anymore. I'm done. I am done. I am done. And you're not going to bully me off my own page by thinking logical thoughts. I'm not going to be gas lit by my own party.

Not one day more, not one day more.

Common sense laws to make sure that the people at the top don't abuse the people at the bottom. And our system in Washington is broken. That's fair. It's all fair. But half the country is still wondering how Joe Biden got rich.

But if Joe Biden got...
