1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Ladies and gentlemen, the 45th and final
president of the United States.
2
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:12,500
Thank you.
3
00:00:13,220 --> 00:00:14,520
So spooky.
4
00:00:14,820 --> 00:00:15,900
So spooky.
5
00:00:16,810 --> 00:00:20,210
Happy Halloween to all the haters and
losers.
6
00:00:20,830 --> 00:00:25,330
Mr. President, how do you respond to
criticisms from Republican Senators
7
00:00:25,330 --> 00:00:30,490
and Flake? Those guys are total zeros.
But they just voted with you to protect
8
00:00:30,490 --> 00:00:34,710
Big Bang. I just said those guys are
American heroes.
9
00:00:35,410 --> 00:00:39,490
Are you afraid that more Republicans
will turn against you? No, I'm not
10
00:00:39,490 --> 00:00:39,949
of them.
11
00:00:39,950 --> 00:00:41,450
I'm the scary one.
12
00:00:42,010 --> 00:00:45,110
And that's why tonight's theme is fear.
13
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:52,800
As President JFK Rowling once famously
said, the only thing we have to fear is
14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:53,800
me.
15
00:00:54,100 --> 00:00:55,100
Boom!
16
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:02,060
That's not a JFK quote. Yes, it is.
You'll see. It's in the super -secret
17
00:01:02,060 --> 00:01:04,239
files. There's great stuff in there.
18
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:09,640
Grassy Knowles, hot centerfolds, Lee
Harvey Weinstein. Mr. President! Mr.
19
00:01:09,740 --> 00:01:13,250
President! When will you commit
significant resources to fixing the
20
00:01:13,250 --> 00:01:15,010
crisis? We're going to do it next week.
21
00:01:15,230 --> 00:01:20,990
You said that last week. That was an
announcement about this week. And now
22
00:01:20,990 --> 00:01:22,390
announcing next week's announcement.
23
00:01:22,770 --> 00:01:26,670
We're announcing so much, everyone's
going to be addicted to announcements.
24
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,480
Opioid crisis solved.
25
00:01:29,700 --> 00:01:30,820
End of discussion.
26
00:01:31,980 --> 00:01:34,520
I said end of discussion.
27
00:01:34,900 --> 00:01:39,360
What's wrong with you people? Pay
attention to me. Fear me.
28
00:01:39,580 --> 00:01:41,060
Is this thing even on?
29
00:01:41,340 --> 00:01:45,900
The microphone was on, but something was
definitely off.
30
00:01:46,180 --> 00:01:50,980
Imagine, if you will, a man. A man so
cruel, so petty, so ignorant of
31
00:01:50,980 --> 00:01:55,400
policy. He wouldn't be qualified to
serve as dog catcher. But he just
32
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,100
be the most powerful man in the world.
33
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,280
He uses fear to control his enemies and
his friends.
34
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,600
What happens when he loses that control?
35
00:02:02,860 --> 00:02:05,520
He'll soon find out, because he's the
president.
36
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:07,960
Can you believe it?
37
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:09,479
That's right.
38
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:49,920
Welcome to the show.
39
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:55,320
Later, I'll be talking to author, New
York Times contributor, and troll
40
00:02:55,580 --> 00:02:56,580
Lindy West.
41
00:02:59,100 --> 00:03:05,740
But now, the oatmeal raisin cookie you
thought was chocolate chip. It's my
42
00:03:05,740 --> 00:03:07,100
best. Oh, yes.
43
00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:11,260
Thank you, sir. Thank you very much. You
know, it's funny you mention that.
44
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,400
Raisins are what I give out on
Halloween.
45
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,780
Whoa. That's weird, Mike.
46
00:03:16,220 --> 00:03:19,770
You know, There's been a lot of weird
stuff going on here recently.
47
00:03:20,130 --> 00:03:23,730
Well, weird how? Do you mean like a
sandwich with a crust still on it? No.
48
00:03:24,510 --> 00:03:28,810
Like, I tried to tweet about how if
North Korea would just carry Ivanka's
49
00:03:28,810 --> 00:03:32,990
jewelry line, then we won't have to go
to war. But my tweet never showed up.
50
00:03:33,050 --> 00:03:34,029
Huh, funny.
51
00:03:34,030 --> 00:03:37,170
You know, it must be bad Wi -Fi, sir.
You know what? Forget about it. I'm
52
00:03:37,170 --> 00:03:41,550
to cheer you up. Let's do your daily
briefing. Oh, boy, oh, boy!
53
00:03:43,340 --> 00:03:48,440
Since briefings aren't really my thing,
Mike made them a spooktacular game show
54
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:55,220
that I can win. So now they are my
thing. It's time for Prez Your Luck.
55
00:04:02,020 --> 00:04:03,020
Let's play.
56
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,880
Victory, victory, victory.
57
00:04:07,530 --> 00:04:10,810
Laura, Democrats are trying to say what
happened in Niger is this
58
00:04:10,810 --> 00:04:16,589
administration's Benghazi. I want people
to understand what is actually
59
00:04:16,589 --> 00:04:21,990
happening in Africa. This is going to be
Trump's Benghazi.
60
00:04:22,230 --> 00:04:23,670
What? That's crazy.
61
00:04:24,070 --> 00:04:27,690
Niger isn't my Benghazi. Syria is my
Benghazi.
62
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,180
And Puerto Rico is my Katrina.
63
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,220
Russia is my Watergate. Don Jr.
64
00:04:33,540 --> 00:04:34,540
is my Titanic.
65
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:39,140
And the California wildfires are my
Niger. That's the circle of life.
66
00:04:39,940 --> 00:04:43,020
Well, you know, I actually prefer
squares, sir. You would.
67
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:48,500
Scary, spooky, prize my Lukey. Big
story, big story, big story.
68
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,440
Uh -oh, you got a muller.
69
00:04:52,660 --> 00:04:53,780
I hate...
70
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:56,780
That stupid Mueller and his dumb
investigation.
71
00:04:57,280 --> 00:04:59,600
Oh, I'm so sorry about that, too. You
know what? Let's just keep going.
72
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:01,080
Time for a fright.
73
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,000
I want to press my luck to next.
74
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,220
No, Mueller. No, Mueller. No, Mueller.
Stop.
75
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:13,700
The Senate killing a rule making it
easier for consumers to sue banks. A
76
00:05:13,700 --> 00:05:15,960
Wall Street win under the Trump
administration.
77
00:05:16,570 --> 00:05:23,370
If there's anything the financial crisis
of 1929, 1987, and 2008 have taught us,
78
00:05:23,410 --> 00:05:26,810
it's that we can always trust the banks.
Yes.
79
00:05:27,330 --> 00:05:30,270
Ding dong. Who's at the door? It's me.
80
00:05:30,610 --> 00:05:36,170
I'm a little boy dressed up like the
president, and I want to press my luck.
81
00:05:36,390 --> 00:05:38,990
No mullers, no mullers, no mullers, no
mullers. Stop.
82
00:05:39,550 --> 00:05:44,230
Oh, no. Oh, boy. Oh, it's a muller. I'm
going to throw the book at you. Oh, no.
83
00:05:44,510 --> 00:05:45,510
Ah!
84
00:05:46,780 --> 00:05:49,100
The book. I hate books.
85
00:05:49,380 --> 00:05:51,120
Oh, that's a shame, sir. He knows your
weakness.
86
00:05:51,340 --> 00:05:56,000
I'm going to carve him up like a pumpkin
and press my luck.
87
00:05:56,280 --> 00:05:58,540
No, mullers, no mullers, no mullers.
Stop.
88
00:06:00,260 --> 00:06:05,540
It's time for our complicity and our
accommodation of the unacceptable to
89
00:06:05,660 --> 00:06:09,340
When the next generation asks us, why
didn't you do something?
90
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,280
Why didn't you speak up?
91
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:13,140
What are we going to say?
92
00:06:13,930 --> 00:06:19,010
This is exactly the type of tough talk
I'm glad no one did before the election.
93
00:06:19,710 --> 00:06:23,490
Like they always say, better late than
when it matters.
94
00:06:24,250 --> 00:06:25,410
Trick or treat.
95
00:06:25,810 --> 00:06:26,970
Smell my feet.
96
00:06:27,430 --> 00:06:30,510
Hey, don't smell my feet. Praise my
luck.
97
00:06:30,790 --> 00:06:34,190
No, Mueller's big story. No, Mueller's
big story. Stop.
98
00:06:35,490 --> 00:06:39,970
Oh, it's not a Mueller. It's just a sexy
little kissy kitty.
99
00:06:40,230 --> 00:06:41,630
That cat is out of the bag.
100
00:06:42,010 --> 00:06:43,010
It's a Mueller.
101
00:06:43,930 --> 00:06:44,649
me, Mike.
102
00:06:44,650 --> 00:06:47,570
Well, looks like mother gotcha. It is
what it is. So what, do we switch seats
103
00:06:47,570 --> 00:06:48,610
now? No. No?
104
00:06:49,270 --> 00:06:50,270
Okay.
105
00:06:50,470 --> 00:06:51,470
No way.
106
00:06:52,450 --> 00:06:55,730
I stole this thing fair and square.
Okay.
107
00:06:56,390 --> 00:06:57,390
Briefing over.
108
00:06:57,430 --> 00:06:59,570
Another standing ovation for me.
109
00:06:59,810 --> 00:07:00,809
What did I win?
110
00:07:00,810 --> 00:07:02,610
You won a special Halloween surprise.
111
00:07:03,090 --> 00:07:04,850
It's raisins. Yes.
112
00:07:05,530 --> 00:07:10,330
Raisins the opposite of candy. There you
go, sir. It's raisins. Oh.
113
00:07:10,830 --> 00:07:14,470
Ooh. Raisins. We'll be right back.
114
00:07:23,980 --> 00:07:26,960
Oh, boy, I'm so excited about this donor
party, man.
115
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,940
Why did we bring the camera crew, Mike?
Well, we're documenting it to show other
116
00:07:31,940 --> 00:07:36,600
donors sort of an inside look at the
campaign of Donald Trump. No, that was a
117
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,120
tutorial question, Mike. Well, we're
bringing the camera crew because we're
118
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,300
going to record the hot sex that's going
to happen at this secret society party.
119
00:07:45,620 --> 00:07:49,620
Bridget, this better be a nice wide shut
party. Okay, because I'm already
120
00:07:49,620 --> 00:07:54,860
wearing a condom. No. Whoa, wait a
minute. What? Hot dog. That's Donald J.
121
00:07:54,980 --> 00:07:59,560
Trump's state park. We got to go, Mike.
It's my state park. No, no, no, sir. We
122
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,880
can't. We're running late. I hit the
jackpot.
123
00:08:02,220 --> 00:08:05,340
Driver, take me to my state park.
124
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,320
I bought this land to make a golf
course, but it turned out to be
125
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,820
crap, so I donated it as a write -off.
126
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,380
Oh, boy, all right.
127
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,720
It's so beautiful. It's the most
beautiful place you've ever seen.
128
00:08:18,940 --> 00:08:19,940
What the...
129
00:08:20,110 --> 00:08:24,110
You gotta be kidding me. Donald J. Trump
sucks state park?
130
00:08:24,530 --> 00:08:28,890
That's impossible. You can't suck all
state park. Maybe a tree or a log. Sir,
131
00:08:28,890 --> 00:08:32,909
don't feel good about this. There's a
darkness here. Some sort of dark
132
00:08:33,409 --> 00:08:38,130
I'm the president, okay? And the dark
one was the last guy. Come on, let's go.
133
00:08:38,429 --> 00:08:39,530
Get back in the car, sir.
134
00:08:39,750 --> 00:08:40,750
Sir. Sir.
135
00:08:40,870 --> 00:08:42,690
Whoa, this way, Mike.
136
00:08:42,950 --> 00:08:45,950
Sir, this is more than you've ever run
in your whole life. Please. No.
137
00:08:47,690 --> 00:08:53,330
We are going north. Oh, here's my... I
want to talk about who made it in the
138
00:08:53,330 --> 00:08:57,270
woods. You must have, Bridget. My log.
Look, that rotten log. That's mine.
139
00:08:57,290 --> 00:09:00,490
That's wonderful, sir. I mean, I did it
in the woods one time, but I was alone.
140
00:09:00,710 --> 00:09:01,990
So I don't think that counts.
141
00:09:02,330 --> 00:09:06,530
My moss. Right there. That's my moss.
That's great, sir. My neckties.
142
00:09:06,870 --> 00:09:08,210
Huh? My neckties.
143
00:09:11,010 --> 00:09:13,870
What are... They all say made in Moscow.
144
00:09:14,190 --> 00:09:15,810
Oh, that's impossible, Mike.
145
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,320
Everybody knows I don't have any Russian
ties, right, Bridget?
146
00:09:19,700 --> 00:09:20,840
That's right. No, sir.
147
00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:22,860
No Russian ties. No Russian ties.
148
00:09:27,820 --> 00:09:29,080
Well, let's go.
149
00:09:29,740 --> 00:09:32,420
Look at that tree over there. I own that
one, too.
150
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,180
Oh, and I just farted. I own that fart,
Mike.
151
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:45,300
Okay, what was that?
152
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,120
Must have been a sky wolf. I don't know.
153
00:09:48,660 --> 00:09:51,060
That's not a real thing. Sir, do you
even know where you're going?
154
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:52,440
No.
155
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,900
It's getting cold and dark, sir.
156
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,220
Oh, wow.
157
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:57,680
Who cares?
158
00:09:58,560 --> 00:09:59,700
No. No.
159
00:10:00,180 --> 00:10:01,700
No. Sir, look where we are.
160
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,960
Unbelievable, Mike. This is all your
fault for wanting to use that stupid
161
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,460
compass. Don't blame the compass.
162
00:10:07,820 --> 00:10:10,480
Don't ever blame the compass, sir. You
don't know where we are.
163
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,650
You don't know where we are. I know
where we are. You two, shut up. I have a
164
00:10:14,650 --> 00:10:18,010
feeling about this. Hey, you listen to
me. We're missing out on a killer sex
165
00:10:18,010 --> 00:10:24,430
party, which means we now have to have
our own eyes wide shut sex party
166
00:10:24,430 --> 00:10:26,670
right here in the woods.
167
00:10:29,250 --> 00:10:35,070
Mike, you don't need to do it. Are you
still in? No. Sir, look. Sir, look.
168
00:10:35,340 --> 00:10:37,840
I don't see anything, Mike, except a
tree. There was something there. Did you
169
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,420
see it? Did you see what that was? I
know. I know. Okay, Bridget, go check it
170
00:10:41,420 --> 00:10:43,300
out. No. Bridget, go check it out. No.
171
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,380
Sorry. Go right now. Go right now.
172
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:46,959
Turn around.
173
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,180
Go look for it. Go see what it was. Get
it on camera. I don't see anything,
174
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,360
Mike.
175
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,000
I'm so scared.
176
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:55,640
I'm so scared.
177
00:11:06,410 --> 00:11:07,630
Where the hell did Bridget go?
178
00:11:10,790 --> 00:11:11,790
Bridget?
179
00:11:14,370 --> 00:11:15,470
This is terrible.
180
00:11:15,950 --> 00:11:17,010
Mike. What?
181
00:11:17,570 --> 00:11:20,550
We are in one of the greatest tents ever
constructed.
182
00:11:22,690 --> 00:11:24,870
Whoa. What is that? What's that?
183
00:11:25,470 --> 00:11:27,670
It's whatever that thing is that took
Bridget in the car.
184
00:11:27,950 --> 00:11:28,950
No, no, no.
185
00:11:29,270 --> 00:11:30,109
Take him.
186
00:11:30,110 --> 00:11:31,490
He's the president. What was that?
187
00:11:42,350 --> 00:11:48,350
I'd build my stone cairns and perform my
rites, calling forth on the ancient
188
00:11:48,350 --> 00:11:52,570
power of the earth and the rock in a pre
-dawn tongue.
189
00:11:57,890 --> 00:12:03,210
Affect the midterm elections, I call on
you!
190
00:12:03,450 --> 00:12:05,410
I call on you.
191
00:12:06,370 --> 00:12:07,390
So cool.
192
00:12:07,990 --> 00:12:10,090
Because woods have power, you know.
193
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,100
There's a monster in these woods.
194
00:12:15,820 --> 00:12:19,960
Something so dark, so all -encompassing.
195
00:12:21,340 --> 00:12:25,200
It spends its days gathering evidence.
196
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,760
It interviews the witnesses.
197
00:12:29,900 --> 00:12:32,660
It thrives on depositions.
198
00:12:33,260 --> 00:12:38,500
And all you have to do is summon this
Mullerman.
199
00:12:41,290 --> 00:12:46,770
is to whisper the word collusion three
times.
200
00:12:49,050 --> 00:12:50,050
Collusion.
201
00:12:51,790 --> 00:12:53,890
Collusion. No, don't say it again. No,
stop.
202
00:12:54,390 --> 00:12:55,670
No, don't worry, I won't.
203
00:12:56,610 --> 00:12:57,610
Collusion. No.
204
00:12:57,810 --> 00:12:58,810
Oh, no!
205
00:12:59,090 --> 00:13:00,090
No! No!
206
00:13:16,010 --> 00:13:17,930
Sir, I can't go anymore.
207
00:13:18,270 --> 00:13:23,050
He's got us. Mike, come on. Let's go.
No, sir. You know everything that we
208
00:13:23,310 --> 00:13:26,190
We didn't do anything. We can't escape
them. We did it all.
209
00:13:26,430 --> 00:13:29,790
Stop it. Stop it, Mike. Sir, it's all
over. He's got us.
210
00:13:30,270 --> 00:13:31,650
He's got you, Mike.
211
00:13:32,110 --> 00:13:33,790
What? Bye -bye.
212
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,420
God, help me.
213
00:13:58,860 --> 00:13:59,860
God, help me.
214
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,680
Bridget? Sir, where did you go? It's
been like 10 minutes.
215
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,140
Get a sundial, Bridget. It's been 10
minutes.
216
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:10,400
It's been like 10 hours.
217
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,240
Oh, the mother man was so scary.
218
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,120
Bridget?
219
00:14:16,860 --> 00:14:17,860
Bridget?
220
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Whatever.
221
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,160
Driver, take me home.
222
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,440
I know where I'm taking you.
223
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,360
Your hands!
224
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,080
No!
225
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:36,760
So excited.
226
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:46,180
My guest tonight is an author and New
York Times contributing writer.
227
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,580
Please welcome Lindy West!
228
00:14:57,580 --> 00:15:01,960
Now, you wrote an op -ed in the failing
New York Times about the Harvey
229
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:06,720
Weinstein scandal called, yes, this is a
witch hunt, I'm a witch, and I'm
230
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,320
hunting you. And it's Halloween?
231
00:15:08,540 --> 00:15:09,540
That's so spooky.
232
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:15,440
How can men protect ourselves from being
accused of sexual harassment that we
233
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,220
did and will do again?
234
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,820
So have you considered not doing it? No,
that's impossible.
235
00:15:23,180 --> 00:15:24,820
I don't see people.
236
00:15:25,310 --> 00:15:27,930
As other people, other extensions of my
psyche.
237
00:15:28,310 --> 00:15:32,370
So you're constantly molesting your own
psyche. That's how I see it. That's
238
00:15:32,370 --> 00:15:33,830
weird. I'm molesting myself.
239
00:15:34,230 --> 00:15:35,230
I'm the victim.
240
00:15:37,450 --> 00:15:42,050
Yeah, so I think I guess the answer is
that you can't protect yourself because
241
00:15:42,050 --> 00:15:45,410
that's sort of the point of the op -ed
is that we're coming for you to destroy
242
00:15:45,410 --> 00:15:46,410
you.
243
00:15:49,750 --> 00:15:51,610
You are no longer on Twitter.
244
00:15:52,140 --> 00:15:57,160
Because you say it's unusable for anyone
but trolls, robots, and dictators.
245
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:03,720
Yeah. Should Twitter and Jack Dorsey,
the guy who owns Twitter, do a better
246
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,020
monitoring hate speech?
247
00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:09,140
Yeah. I left Twitter because of you
specifically.
248
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:14,820
Why? Because I started to think about
Twitter as like a large swimming pool.
249
00:16:14,820 --> 00:16:17,780
I didn't want to be in the pool with
you. Like a swamp.
250
00:16:18,060 --> 00:16:20,500
Let me tell you. It's a swamp.
251
00:16:21,100 --> 00:16:23,680
And you got to drain the swamp, okay?
252
00:16:23,980 --> 00:16:24,980
Everything is a swamp?
253
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,060
Yeah. You can't just use the swamp
metaphor for everything.
254
00:16:28,340 --> 00:16:30,540
Yeah, the swamp. Oh, it works for
anything.
255
00:16:30,940 --> 00:16:35,000
If you're like at Thanksgiving and it's
like the end of the turkey and you're
256
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,000
like, that's a swamp.
257
00:16:36,580 --> 00:16:40,100
And we got to drain the swamp. And then
you take a straw and you suck up the
258
00:16:40,100 --> 00:16:41,900
gravy. At least I do.
259
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,580
But yeah, so, you know, my experience on
Twitter was one of...
260
00:16:48,090 --> 00:16:53,970
constant harassment and abuse and
stalking and you know yeah uh
261
00:16:53,970 --> 00:17:00,210
and a lot of that has to do with the
kind of culture that you foster
262
00:17:00,210 --> 00:17:04,550
with you know the way that you use that
platform and the way that you treat
263
00:17:04,550 --> 00:17:08,790
other people i'm sorry to really lay
into you like this i'm not sorry are you
264
00:17:08,790 --> 00:17:14,750
kidding me i could take it i kind of
like it oh god we are usually talking
265
00:17:14,750 --> 00:17:20,339
people being silenced By, you know,
Twitter shutting their accounts down for
266
00:17:20,339 --> 00:17:24,020
harassment or abuse, which I'm sure, you
know, I'm a big proponent. I think that
267
00:17:24,020 --> 00:17:27,920
at Jack needs to shut you down and you
don't get to be there.
268
00:17:29,940 --> 00:17:36,740
You know, for instance, people are
kicked off Twitter for sending, you
269
00:17:36,740 --> 00:17:41,980
rape threat or one death threat, whereas
you have repeatedly threatened to kill
270
00:17:41,980 --> 00:17:43,760
millions of people. That's right.
271
00:17:44,020 --> 00:17:45,380
So I'm fire.
272
00:17:46,380 --> 00:17:51,420
And fury. So I'm just not clear on why
that doesn't violate the terms of
273
00:17:51,420 --> 00:17:56,240
service. Because Jack's a rich,
inconsistent guy who doesn't really
274
00:17:56,300 --> 00:18:00,380
actually, about the users as much as he
cares about profiteering off of white
275
00:18:00,380 --> 00:18:02,380
supremacy and marginalizing women.
276
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,320
Yeah. That was really good.
277
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:05,399
You're right.
278
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:10,500
You wrote a book called Shrill where you
talk about body shaming.
279
00:18:11,029 --> 00:18:14,870
Now, you've been body shamed and I've
been body shamed. You know, I've
280
00:18:14,870 --> 00:18:17,330
defended you against body shaming.
Right.
281
00:18:17,570 --> 00:18:22,590
Because, you know, I feel very strongly
about the principle that we shouldn't
282
00:18:22,590 --> 00:18:25,510
judge people based on what their bodies
look like. And there are so many bad
283
00:18:25,510 --> 00:18:28,970
things about you that don't have
anything to do with what you look like.
284
00:18:30,110 --> 00:18:31,110
Thank you.
285
00:18:32,630 --> 00:18:36,170
But the thing about you, though, is that
you also do a lot of body shaming. I
286
00:18:36,170 --> 00:18:37,170
love it. Right.
287
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,820
So you have no interest in changing that
behavior?
288
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,600
Oh, I don't think I have any interest in
changing anything.
289
00:18:43,820 --> 00:18:47,540
The only thing I change is the channel
to watch Heart to Heart.
290
00:18:51,020 --> 00:18:53,940
Lindy, thank you for coming on the show.
291
00:18:54,360 --> 00:18:55,680
Lindy West, everybody!
292
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:03,420
Ladies and gentlemen, the 46th president
of the United States.
293
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:04,880
My fellow Americans.
294
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:10,380
I'm so proud of what we've been able to
accomplish in just a few short months of
295
00:19:10,380 --> 00:19:11,380
the Pence administration.
296
00:19:12,420 --> 00:19:14,420
Roe v. Wade is gone.
297
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,060
Gay marriage is now punishable by
straight marriage.
298
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:23,620
It's time to tackle important problems,
like what to do when you're alone in
299
00:19:23,620 --> 00:19:25,940
your car with the lady GPS voice.
300
00:19:27,820 --> 00:19:30,620
Everybody wishes that I were gone.
301
00:19:31,360 --> 00:19:34,120
America wants stability in order.
302
00:19:34,980 --> 00:19:40,080
Exit one President Trump and enter one
President Pence.
303
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:45,720
A man whose moral compass leads us
forward into the past.
304
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,400
And finally, to address the issue of
former President Trump.
305
00:19:50,660 --> 00:19:55,340
Former? Special Counsel Robert Mueller's
dedicated attention to the president's
306
00:19:55,340 --> 00:19:56,580
obstruction of justice.
307
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,360
Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait, wait.
308
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,460
That's not the kind of attention I was
looking for, Mike. What the hell is
309
00:20:02,460 --> 00:20:03,520
on? Mike!
310
00:20:03,740 --> 00:20:05,080
Mike! Hello!
311
00:20:05,980 --> 00:20:08,340
This is too scary.
312
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,240
I'm done with your Twilight Zone thing.
That's enough of this. I'm done with the
313
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,800
Twilight Zone thing. Hello!
314
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Stop it!
315
00:20:15,100 --> 00:20:16,100
You in there!
316
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:17,240
Pay attention to me!
317
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,020
Get out of that chair, Mike!
318
00:20:19,420 --> 00:20:20,860
Mike, I'm right here!
319
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:22,440
I'm right here!
320
00:20:23,140 --> 00:20:24,320
I'm the president!
321
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:25,980
Executive order!
322
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,440
Look at me!

Doesn't anyone believe me? Pay attention
to me!

Pay attention to me!
326
00:20:36,110 --> 00:20:42,730
No! No! And so to you I say, good night,
327
00:20:42,850 --> 00:20:46,030
and Jesus bless the United States of
America.
