Ep2 - Media Incompetence & the Iran Deal

Welcome to the Public Perspective. I'm Jim Perrin, and last week we talked about incompetence and comp— named a few professions like doctors and weatherman and all that kind of stuff, but I forgot to, to bring up mainstream media and how many of them are very incompetent, and some of our elected officials sadly are very incompetent. They spew all this hatred all the time, and I don't know under— I don't understand it. Just if you're keeping up with current events, just last week at the White House, there was a UFC event, and I guess they arrested 5 guys, had a terror plot to go ahead and they had drones, they had snipers, they had it all planned out. And 5 of them are in custody in there. I guess there was 23 altogether.

They're still looking for the others.

But the thing is, they got one of the guys' phones, and on his emails— and his text messages, I should say— to each other, he talked about illegitimate government, illegitimate president, and all this kind of stuff to do as much damage to to the wealthy people, to the oligarchies. Where does this come from? This comes from the mainstream media and our elected politicians spewing this nonsense that our president is illegitimate and rich—

being rich like Elon Musk is bad, is a bad thing, not a good thing.

Used to be celebrated in this country. Now it's a bad thing. Okay, they got these guys anyway, and I hope they go to jail for a long time. But the thing is that, like I said, it's a Democratic talking point is basically what it is. And it's just gotta be put a halt to it at some point. I don't understand because when they do all this, they are radicalizing our youth in particular.

Okay.

They're telling them all this nonsense. And some of them are act like lone wolves and take it into consideration.

It's always been dangerous. Abraham Lincoln, for example, was shot by a Democrat. John F. Kennedy was shot by a Democrat. Robert F. Kennedy, his little brother, was shot by a Democrat. Martin Luther King was shot by a Democrat. Yes, that's right, he was shot by a Democrat. Okay, Ronald Reagan was shot by a Democrat. Donald Trump has been shot by a Democrat. Charlie Kirk was shot by a Democrat. Even Steve Scalise, playing softball or baseball game for the Capitol, was shot by a Democrat.

So this notion that the right wing all has all the violence is just fake news media.

It's not true.

Is there violence from the right?

Sure, no doubt about it.

White supremacy is bad. Are there groups out there that are racist and white supremacist?

Sure, sure there are.

But all the bad is coming from the right.

That's just not true. That's fake news.

That is totally fake news. Just so you know what Donald Trump's talking about and what he's had to deal with, the stupid media. They are so incompetent, it is incredible. But they have Trump Derangement Syndrome. And that's a problem. Even some Republicans have it. And I can't wait, but pretty soon I expect to see some claims made and some people put in for some prescriptions from, and have Medicaid and Medicare pay for it for TDS. I guess if it happens, it'll, the doctors will prove it's a real condition. It causes people not to be able to relate to one another. It causes hate.

It's divided our country in half.

Half the people love Donald Trump, half the people hate Donald Trump.

I don't know the answer. I just know that it should be America, especially coming up on the verge of our 250th birthday.

This country's been great. The truth is that more people have come in this country this racist, terrible, awful place. More people have come here over the last 250 years than any other nation in history. And we are a total nation of immigrants. But we, we're legal immigrants. People come here legally. They don't come here illegally and break in and then cause chaos. And our kindness has been betrayed a little bit because because we've let a lot of people in, and some are very good people. Most are very good people, but you get some bad apples in here who don't— who are in the country that don't like this country. They don't like America. They don't like Americans. They don't like our way of life.

They take advantage of it, okay? They take advantage, complete advantage of it.

Anyways, I don't know what's going on, but it seems the Trump Derangement Syndrome is Like I said, very real. Now we're going to get into the Iran thing a little bit later, but see, the— when he was bombed, when, when Trump administration was bombing Iran, and the Democrats and the media hated war, they hated it. Now we signed a peace agreement and they hate peace.

I don't—

I'm confused. I don't know which is it.

You hate war or you hate peace?

You can't have both. See, Donald Trump was bombing and then he stopped, and now you hated the bombing. Now you hate— you can't— you just can't go both ways with this, okay? Even a lot of Republicans— there's some congressmen like John Cornyn down in Texas and Bill Cassidy in Louisiana, and another one over in North Carolina, Tom Tillis in North Carolina. They're on their way out and they're doing everything they can to bash Trump and badmouth Trump. They never liked him in the first place. Heard me an idea the other day from a guy I like, and over in Europe, I didn't know this, but in Europe they have four, four different parties. Like we've got independents here as a third party, but it never does nothing as far as elections go.

It's either Democrat or Republican.

We know that. But he had an idea.

Why don't we go ahead and split and make it four parties?
