This morning, Donald Trump responded to the news about the lack of charges coming Joe Biden's way and the classified documents case saying, wow, fake news, CNN through a leak through the Department of Injustice. See what I did there? Has just reported that no charges will be filed in the much bigger than mine [00:00:18] Crooked Joe Biden documents case. We are living in a very corrupt country, and I feel like that really says everything. I feel like it says everything about the documents. And if you read between the parentheses, it might say even more than that. But he decided to double and triple down true thing, prosecutorial misconduct [00:00:36] and selective prosecution, which I don't even think is inaccurate. But like, yeah, you select who you prosecute based on the crimes they commit. You don't just prosecute everyone like you did. The bad thing I shouldn't be prosecuted for that. You'll notice that they're also not prosecuting Joe Biden for the crimes [00:00:53] of the Trump Organization, or trying to overthrow the government, or that sort of thing, like you did those things. He did a much smaller version of it and was tripping over himself not just because of his advanced age, but also because he wanted to be helpful, whereas you were hiding documents and flying them across the country and handing some over, [00:01:09] and then keeping the rest back, and then trying to get your lackeys to do your dirty work and hiding them in different places like it is such a different case. I get that he has to performatively freak out, but I think that reasonable people understand the difference. First of all, I got to say, John, that your Trump impression is so good that [00:01:28] I was having I was having a PTSD moment. I was just like, oh God, is he really here? Thank you. So thank you. And no thank you for that. But also, yeah, I mean, he's just he's such a whiny like, second grader. [00:01:45] You know, this just reminds me of, like, someone in the play field who gets in trouble for tripping other kids, being like, but he. But he brought peanuts at lunch or something. You know what I mean? [00:02:00] Like, he's just like, dude, it's apples and oranges. Like, stop being like, why? Why am I the one getting in trouble? Because I'm the one tripping people on purpose when he's not. He's getting he's not getting in trouble because he didn't. [00:02:16] Yeah, it's apples and peanuts in that way Sharon I agree. And you know, it said that the white House declined, of course, to comment on this. And I just started thinking, I wonder if there's ever been a time where Donald Trump was asked for a comment and he declined, or if there's ever been [00:02:33] a time where he hasn't just volunteered to say something ridiculous and stupid, these were enough of an investigation. Hunter Biden was even. I'm surprised he didn't bring that up. Hunter Biden was even talked to about the documents and it was like, didn't even live there. [00:02:48] I just used it on my driver's license. So it's going to be what it's going to be. Yeah, yeah. They in total interviewed about 100 aides, colleagues and family members, including, as you said, Hunter Biden. They did a two day interview with the president like 100 people. [00:03:05] It's what did you what was the second day? Sharon, you were so right. This is such a freaking waste of money. You know what I mean? Like, and it's like, we don't have this money. Like, we need this money. There's, you know, there's a billion things that we could have used [00:03:23] this money for that was more useful than spending all this time and effort and taxpayer dollars being like. So, you know, where were you when we found the one rando document. [00:03:41] - Under. - His shoe? And by the way, look, we're going to get to a little bit more of people freaking out, but it's just like you're saying, you're pointing out that it seems unnecessary, that so much time and attention and money should be put into this, but also, like, it didn't. None of this had to be anything like Donald Trump. [00:03:58] Easily could have just complied three months, six months, a year after leaving office. He could have just shipped the documents back and that would have been it. I know this is going to blow the mind of the MAGA world, but the FBI was not like, like chomping at the bit to raid Mar a Lago. [00:04:14] That is politically dangerous in the country that we live in. So he easily could have gotten out of this. And and if anything, like we've made the point from the beginning, I can only speak for myself that if all the different things he's being accused of, like even though he has done way more than Biden, this is not as significant a thing [00:04:32] as some of the fraud, let alone trying to overturn the election or, you know, blackmail Ukraine or whatever. Those are worse things. We didn't need this. Like, this is not Trump Derangement syndrome. This is self-destructive behavior from a person who is so arrogant [00:04:49] and stupid and shortsighted and unable to, like, admit when he's wrong, that he, like, opts into prosecutions that he really doesn't need can. Considering all the other things he's being accused of. So it's just it's so needless. [00:05:04] And if I was a member of the MAGA base, I would be so frustrated with him, with all the things that I want you to accomplish. You know, like there's whole like marginalized communities you could be wiping out and instead you decide to own goal on this. [00:05:20] Dude, it's just it's embarrassing. But that said, before we get into more commentary, I want to give you a little bit more of the reactions from the right. So why don't we launch into Sean Hannity responding to this? According to media leaks, Joe Biden, he's going to get off scot free. Listen to this. [00:05:35] On the classified document case that is now about to come to a close. Joe Biden's own DOJ will not charge him with anything. Apparently, that's not a surprise. We know that they have been politicized and weaponized, but guess why? [00:05:50] Because his name is not Trump. It's not, you know, a conservative. Sad charges against Hunter Biden. Just as a reminder. And also what about her name her the Trump appointed special counsel. Again, it would be one thing if there was a person on the right, be it a Sean [00:06:07] Hannity or whoever in the establishment right or the independent right, which is the exact same thing, who would go through all of what we would list as evidence of what makes these cases different? So Donald Trump spent 18 months trying to avoid giving them back. He'd give some back and he'd keep the rest and he'd lie. [00:06:24] And he didn't want to give the footage and all of the stuff that he did. And then Biden, like going out of his way to try to give the documents back and being super helpful and all of that. If they had any intellectual honesty, they would go through all of that and show how those actually are not like, like differences, distinctions [00:06:42] with a difference, like it doesn't matter. At the end of the day, if Biden was helpful, he still had the documents. It's that they don't engage with any of the evidence, because that would require talking about what Trump did. And it is literally indefensible through their actions, through their unwillingness [00:06:58] to talk about this topic, they're showing that they think it is indefensible and they don't want to have to defend it because they'll look as buffoonish as Donald Trump. So they just complain. They bleed about weaponization and selective prosecution and all that. But reasonable people who are not like rabid Team Biden people, [00:07:16] that is not who I am, can at least see the distinctions between these. Any other comments from from YouTube, starting with you, Helen. I'm certainly not a rabid Team Biden person, but but yeah, this is all ridiculous. And and again, to your point about the special counsel, special counsel her [00:07:36] who is a Trump appointee like, hello, this is not like, you know, this team was stacked with lefties that are like, oh yeah, we're going to give him a pass. Like the guy running the show was a Trump appointee. [00:07:51] Like that should be the end of it. Like the Trump guy was like, yeah, there's enough there's not enough here to prosecute. - Sorry I tried. - Yeah. Period. That should have been the end of it. I just think it's unfair, John, that you want Sean Hannity [00:08:07] to investigate this thing. It's an hour show, okay? The channel's only on 24 hours a day. And these little details. The audience is not interested in absorbing all that. There's no time. You got to get into the nutcrackers and stuff. You know, there's a lot to fit into the rundown.
