The Democrats don't have the slightest grasp of persuasion. It's like they've never been introduced to it as a skill, whereas Trump is the best of all time. Anyway, rhyming without policy ideas, it's not going to work. And then lastly, you're wondering, is Rahm Emanuel somebody who could run for office and win? Well, I have mixed feelings. Number one, he's smart enough to alter his approach.

Number one, he's smart enough to alter his approach.
I don't know if he would alter it the way I think he should, but he's definitely smart enough to say, does that work, does that not work, and change his approach. He's very smart and he's experienced, but unfortunately he has crime boss eyes. And I don't know that he can fix that. Now, I'm not saying he's a crime boss. I'm saying his eyes look like he just murdered somebody.

And how are you going to ignore that? You can't really ignore that. So the way I always think of it is, if you were a director and you were casting for your movie and you needed a crime boss, would Rahm Emanuel look like a crime boss who would be good in your movie? Yeah, he would be. And that's not true of everybody, right? Adam Schiff would not look like he could be a crime boss.

You know, Swalwell, not really. Schumer, no, not really. It's kind of unique to Rahm Emanuel. His eyes just say, I just killed somebody and I could kill you next. So, no, I don't know how he gets past that. Well, it's my favorite season, and by that I mean fake protest season. So has it been every year that these NGOs and fake organizations and Soros funds and various Democrat rich guys fund?

It's every summer, right? And they put their muscle on the street, and some of them are Antifa or Antifa-connected. Some of them are communists, literally communists, but they might have names that don't sound too communist. And so here are the things you can kind of expect.

Number one, if you're a Republican and you want to get a jump on things, I would start referring to the Democrat protests as chaos because that's a word that they think works. It doesn't make much difference, really. But I would steal it because they're going to use it as something that maybe the Trump administration doesn't know how to respond. They've got chaos.

So I would say it looks like the Democrats and the NGOs and the protests are designed to bring chaos because they are. They're designed to bring chaos. So here are the things which I think you're going to find out about during the protests. So the protests will probably last a while. They're mostly against, I think, all, against the ICE roundups.

So they're opposed to rounding people up ICE and sending them back. But here are the things I expect you will see. Number one, you'll start seeing evidence dribbling out about which entities are involved. And you'll say to yourself, oh, wow, that's very artificial. Now, it starts out, people look at the news and see people running around.

They say, wow, there's a pretty big movement against these deportations. But is there really? Is there a big movement against deportations? Probably not. It's probably people who are paid to protest, and then some of them get out of control. Some of them are true believers. But you're not seeing anything that would tell you the sizing of the protest. It's probably minuscule, honestly.

Or let's put it another way. If they were not being paid... How many of the protesters would have picked this issue, the ICE stuff, as the thing that they think most needs to get fixed? Don't you think they'd be doing something with climate change or income distribution or stopping war? Yeah. The fact that they've randomly... Not randomly, because it's all fake protests.
