What are the implications of the Democrat Party's current struggles?

Trump has seen the polling, right? I think this started when he lost the election. I remember that quote of the Republican senator who said right anonymously, who said, let him play golf, let him say the election was rigged. He's not going to do anything. I mean, good people have gone along with this. Republicans who are not who know it's not true. have gone along with it long enough so that they have created a monster. So that that kind of anti-democratic rhetoric has gone on. Yes, we must build election infrastructure that makes it easy and secure for eligible American citizens to vote while preventing non-citizens, including what she calls illegal aliens, from casting ballots. The choice of who to vote for is obviously up to the voters themselves.

Clean up on aisle nine, Angela. Here's the thing. Um... Who are the right people? These are the questions. Who are the right people? For whom do we want them voting for? And furthermore, where is the evidence of the widespread voter fraud? Even the Heritage Foundation has not determined there is widespread voter fraud. Their own data and research says there's not. So is this a case of if they just say it enough, people start to believe it? So I think that's part of it in terms of their execution. But there's something to also consider is that where's the evidence where you can actually find them? There are people. Now, that's not evidence. But the source of it is there's this constellation of right-wing influencers that have been pickled in these lies now for six years.

And they're not just out there talking about it. They're working directly with the Trump administration to say, now it's time, now that you're in power, go back and find proof of the things and the conspiracies that we were pushing five or six years ago. So if you look at what happened in Fulton County, Just a week before the raid in Fulton County, Patrick Byrne, who was in the Oval Office in 2020 with Sidney Powell and Michael Flynn, when Trump said to seize the voting machines, he had to leave a TV hit before it happened to do an emergency meeting at the White House, which apparently was about some upcoming thing related to election conspiracy. So to me, where's the source? It's all of these influencers out there that they are now basically...

How has the rhetoric around election integrity evolved since 2020?

running the playbook around whatever false claim they have been holding on to for six or seven years. And they're everywhere. There's a bunch of people percolating in Maricopa County now in Arizona. And so that's the thing that's sort of giving it some fuel. Obviously, Trump's own narrative and all the externalities for it. But you can really zero in, and that's what you'll find. Europe really needs the US in NATO and all kinds of things. And so there are still European leaders who listen to the Marco Rubio in Munich and think, actually, you know, the US is still with us. This is all going to be OK. But there are others who say, essentially, it's over. We need to assume that we're on our own. And Europe needs the U.S.
Unknown 2:55
as the strong leader slash beacon of the free world, not the direction it's going in now. And the question is, are some banking on history holding? I think that's over. I think in Europe there's a very strong sense that I got from the days in Munich and indeed before in Davos. All this idea of what people call the global world order, the US led over, it is over. The West, I think, is over as a concept in the sense that there are significant differences now between what the United States administration wants and what many people in Europe want. And it is important to be realistic about that. There are areas that we agree on, but the idea that the US is pushing for the same agenda as Europe, think only about look at ukraine as you say secretary rubio is supporting the man who is making it most difficult in europe to support ukraine why are we talking about this

because it's overwhelmingly popular with the public. I remember voting here in Washington, D.C. in 2016 and being told, oh, no, you've already voted.
