45. Hello Moe, how you doing?
I'm doing well. How about still?
Yeah, doing real good. I am so proud of us. Here we are
Saturday doing another show. It will drop on time. Can you
believe it?
I can't actually I'm in a groove. I'm in my routine. So
I'm a routine person. So here we are.
Very good. This is a value for value show, which means you will
not be interrupted by corporate messages or any commercials.
Later on. I'll be thanking the actual executive and Associate
Executive producers and the rest of the producers who have
supported the show, and you're along for the ride no matter
what way you're looking at it. It's value for value, we hope to
bring you some and well, can we get straight into the topic or
what else we got to do?
I have nothing to do but you do.
Here we go. Roll it up. For number 45 More facts with Adam
curry. Let's find out what the topic is. This is the big we'll
have topics where it stops? Nobody knows. Of course no does.
Mo knows. And the topic for episode 45 will be 45 Savage is
the actual term. 45 Savage, which I learned on the last show
that this is. This is now the Official Mo facts name for the
45th. President.
Yes, Mr. Donald J. Trump. It's only appropriate that we talk
about him one year later. If people are not in the know.
Yes, we, you know, I forgot to say although I did text you
yesterday. Yeah. And the 31st. You know, Happy first
anniversary. That's, you know, what an achievement we've done
quite well.
I think we did pretty good. And it's these numbers now. 45 lines
out one in one year. That is and and it brings us back around?
Because I don't think if it was for 45 Savage, this show might
not exist.
The Impossible. 45 Savage definitely made some things
discussable. That's for sure. And by the way, after the after
the last show. I did register 45 savage.com. Did you see that?
No, I didn't know that. Well, that's
if you type in 45 savage.com. You go right to mo facts. Nice.
Yeah. So I can maybe you're redirected to this episode.
Depending I guess we're going to talk about 45. What are we going
to do?
How we're going to start with where we picked off lat picked
up last episode with 44. And then we'll see the beef between
44 and 45. Okay, I'm loving it. Alright, let's jump into number
two there.
Roger Stone was a longtime political adviser to Trump. He
has since been convicted of lying to Congress.
Trump understands among Republicans, there's a very
substantial majority, you will have questions about Obama's
origins and how he just pops up out of nowhere to become a
national figure and whether he was in fact eligible to serve as
president.
We thought that Trump needed an issue that resonates with
people. Diverse certificate meant a lot of different things
to a lot of different people.
Overall,
it talks about how Obama was different. He was a different
kind of person. He was a Manchurian type candidate.
Ah, now we're getting into the really good stuff. Yes, the true
origins of the birtherism conspiracy. I like it.
Yeah, and I want to say this. This was could this could be
perceived as probably the most racist thing Donald Trump has
done or could do, what we're going to talk about in the
motive in this show. And if it was really expected to be
racist, or we're gonna see what the reasoning behind this but I
want to say as a so called black person, this was probably the
you know, just the perception of it that somebody wins. And they
you shot to disqualify him. Right? The narrative behind that
is what really landed wrong, and proudly makes a lot of so called
Black people will not like Donald Trump to this day,
because
they've been told that this was a Trump invention. And
obviously, he went after it. That's for sure. That was that
was his main deal.
And we both know, and I'm sure a lot of our producers know that
this was a democratic invention. But yes, as Roger Stone said in
the clip, he's the one that brought it to the you know, the
mainstream media and you know, became In the face of the
birther movement, but I just want to set set up. This is
where the real beef started between Obama and Trump. No,
this was this. This was the this is the whole thing between them
and you're saying, you know, on a ball of wax,
so it is the bulk of wax. Definitely. Yeah.
That's why I didn't cover it last show. Because this is
transition of power. You got these two forces pulling in
opposite directions. On one side, you have a we laid out
Marxist forces pulling on a 44 and a you have ultra
conservative. I'm not Trump himself. I don't see him being
ultra conservative, but it's he's been enlisted. Oh, yeah.
Why a very people.
To conservative group of people. Absolutely. Yeah.
Right. Um, so we have to investigate this transition for
44 to 45. So I think this is a good point. So I guess we can
get in 1.2.
They released the first one is the Trump was thinking of
running against Obama.
Doesn't matter. Anytime I have doubts. Please welcome my
friend.
He made Himself the face of the birther movement.
Why does he show his birth certificate? I think he's
probably because I have to what everybody else says to what the
show gives me? No, excuse me. I really believe there's a birth
certificate. Why looks you smiling? Why doesn't he show his
birth certificate? Why would President asked to be shown the
birth certificate? You're not allowed to be a president.
You're not born in this country. He may not have been born in
this country. And that was the racist manifestation
of resistance to the President Donald Trump was at the
forefront of it. I think it it rankled President Obama because
the birther stuff was just a pure racism slash xenophobia.
And it was based in nothing.
More than 40% of the population still question whether he's
actually an American or not.
Obama had already released his birth certificate during the
presidential campaign. But the issue wouldn't go away.
Obama was furious wasn't Trump. It was the media. If Trump
couldn't get booked on all those shows, he just be some another
whack job. You know, tweeting about conspiracy theories and
maybe getting booked on Fox. He's Donald Trump is a creation
of the American political news media.
Let me ask you a question. Mo. Yes. When this came up, and I'm
sure you were aware of it, I'm sure I'm sure it in 2012. You
were you were hearing about Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Was there any
feeling of irony that, okay, here's a guy going after a legal
matter, which is deemed to be racist. I don't think he ever
said, Hey, this black man can't be It can't be a true American.
But at the same time, even by the data that we were given,
he's not aid us. Was there that feeling of irony at that time?
For me For Yes, but you have to rewind and look at it through
the lens. So people really didn't look at Barack Obama as
not being aid us. Right. I mean, that he was kind of, you know,
grafted in. And we talked about that on the last show, right?
That can say the real problem is you had a it's like a boxing
match. Right? Yeah. You got one guy? guy, huh. And then it's
like, oh, he's, you know, you know, there's talk of using
performance enhancing drugs or was the dirty. cheated. That's
what, right. That's what really rubbed black people the wrong
way, because you tried to disqualify Obama. And that's why
I said this is Mr. Na, started to even discuss this, but it's
plays an important part. And what we're going to discuss
later of this, for lack of better word match, this was set
up by the media. You heard. Exactly. I will say this. Trump
wasn't no parts of Obama in 2012. He No, he couldn't be
Obama. He could say that. Oh, yeah. I was thinking about
running or, you know, he knew he couldn't be Obama and he was
smart enough not to,
not to pursue it. To set himself Yeah, obviously. Yep.
He was setting himself up because he knew Hillary was
next. He knew she was a weak candidate. So it was like a
proxy war, right. I'm gonna have war on Obama, to set up for
2016.
Yes. And this was, to me, it's always been a very intentional
move. So absolutely.
Yeah. And it's one of the things Donald Trump is always great at
that. He'll pick out a topic to talk about. That way he can come
back and slam you later. And we see this with Kaylee right? I
mean, They pick out the certain these certain topics we get to
the mainstream. It's like, but what about this, and they'll
point to some evidence. But this one, so to reach the audience,
just to
be clear, the searching for the birth certificate was only
deemed racist because of the color of Obama's skin. Right?
And that's to me is what's so interesting. He never said, I
gotta check this guy, because the color of his skin. He had a
weird story, which was the problem, but it was immediately
by the media countered his racist. And I think
race sales. I mean, I mean, I mean, they the media saw as we
can pit, a white man against a black man, they're very
powerful. And it'll be great for ratings. That's why they gave
Trump all the air. I wasn't just Fox News.
No, no, I was everybody, everybody.
Everybody was in on it, because they were like, This is a
sensational story to cover, just for sheer ratings.
And just just as and as a little bit of backstory, maybe we'll
come back to that. But the actual rumor that started with
the Democrats was started by a Hillary Clinton's campaign
managers at the time they started it. I'm sorry, goggles,
or is it okay for me to No, no, no, no, no.
It's perfectly okay for you to say that, because that is the
truth. But it's one thing about doing the work. You got to
realize certain conversations are not even worth having.
Right?
Exactly. Saying that is not worth it. But it's good
information for people to have
not as good information for you to have. But it's if you're
trying to work past something that's not it's like you're no
one is not even worse, not because you're you're not going
to take Obama out of office. They're not me. Nobody's gonna
walk into the White House. Like you don't belong here because of
the diversity of the gate. So it was a nice startup, but I will
say this, it was used by both sides and you're going to hear
in the next two clips for their purpose. War with Trump. He was
setting up for 2016. And we and Obama. Well, let's just as in
the 3.1, to see how Obama used it. Obama reluctantly
released more proof from his citizenship.
Now, as many of you have been briefed, we provided additional
information today about the site of my birth. This thing just
kept on going. Yes, in fact, I was born in Hawaii, August
4 1961. In Killarney hospital, we've posted the certification
that is given by the state of Hawaii,
three days later, it was time for payback.
The President uses the White House Correspondents Dinner that
year with Donald Trump in the room to completely ridicule
Donald Trump in front of this audience that you know that
journalists and lobbyists and government officials and, and
people who at that time Trump wanted to have the respect of
everybody, please have a seat. Donald Trump is here tonight. No
one is happier. No one is prouder to put this birth
certificate matter to rest than the Donald. And that's because
he can finally get back to focusing on the issues that
matter. Why did we fake the moon landing
the fact that that was done at the Washington Correspondents
Dinner was dynamite because the footage belonged to everybody.
And everybody was in the room. It was it was and it was Obama
obliterated him.
He did and it was set up perfectly because here's Trump
under a spotlight. It seemed like it was coming down on him
and Obama was behind, you know, on his own stage behind the mic,
and he's just grilling Trump. And then you see this look on
Trump's face like, I've never been taught to before like this.
And not can't lash out. Right. And by the way, you
fill in the blank, like, here's the Thought Bubble. Some people
saw. I've never been talked to like that, especially not by a
black man. I mean, you can see people
of course, that was the beauty. That was the extent of what how
people spun it. And that may be even be his case, but I don't I
don't think Donald Trump will let anybody that's why they made
the race distinction. I don't think Donald Trump would let
anybody talk to him like that because it just his personality
makeup which we're going to look into deeper in As we did with
Barack Obama on 44 Yeah. But what we have to do is we have to
look at this. Now, this is just my conspiracy theory. I think
this whole birther thing was a limited hangout for somebody to
latch on to, to be at the Republicans and then be may look
like fools. Because if we say what we laid out in the last
show, Barack Obama coming from the intelligence apparatus, or
being a product of George Poppy Bush, he could have had a
perfectly legit birth certificate if they want him to
have one. Where they go out, first of all, first of all, they
fill out this short I never heard of a short, short, short
birth certificate. Yeah, that was kind of I don't even know
what that is. And it
was kind of it was kind of insulting really, it wasn't
really any proof of anything.
Right. But then you you lay that out there as like bait for
people to look into.
Yeah, I like this concept. So what if it since it originated
in the Hillary campaign, that's that was the limited Hangout,
and that would probably could have been bait. Maybe she was
also thinking ahead to 2016 Hey,
no, no, maybe she maybe they expect her to take the bait, but
she didn't because she's snappy with the intelligence agency.
Let me just let me just complete my tea. You know what, they know
how it will land like, right? She's like, I've been around
black people long enough. To know this. This is not going to
work out a good idea, right? But Trump coming along, he needs to
make a splash. So it's like, Okay, I'll take the heat. He
maybe he believed it. I mean, I'm not saying he didn't believe
it. But if even if he didn't believe it, it's like this allow
me to make a splash with the with, with stitcher Wentz that I
want to make a splash with
and the media being complicit, they'll help me. Right, but
I don't think he planned for what he got on that night. What
Obama that was
that was and they had that profile shot of him. And it was
just, it was a beautiful shot. You could just see his hair kind
of melting a little flyer. flyer, you're right, it wasn't
fire. That was beautiful.
I don't think Obama realized what the consequences was going
to be for poking. No poking the bear a billion dollar bear.
Right? Because billionaires have a sense of some I'm not gonna
say all but because, but they have a sense of our crush my
competition. Yes. And certainly. And let's just let we stop at
3.1. Let's go on to three. Let's go into 3.2 display concept.
You Mr. Trump recognized that the real problem was a lack of
leadership. And so ultimately, you didn't blame Little John or
meatloaf. These are the kinds of decisions that would keep me up
at night. Well handled, well handled, but it just
kept going and going and he just kept hammering him. And I
thought, oh, Barack Obama is starting something. I don't know
if he'll be able to finish.
Say what you will about. Mr. Trump, he certainly wouldn't
bring some change to the White House. See what we got up there.
I think that is the night that he resolves to run for
president. I think that he is kind of motivated by maybe I'll
just run maybe I'll show them all. Every critic, every
detractor will have to bow down to President Trump. It's
everyone who's ever doubted Donald. Whoever disagreed.
Whoever challenged him. It is the ultimate revenge to become
the most powerful man in the universe.
Yeah, a big Fu. You huge? Yeah. Okay.
And I think that you now we have to start looking at Trump is a
very sensitive person, and not in the nice term, but he's
highly anything you say to him. He has to fire back 10 times
harder. And I think this lit the fire under him to really, I
think he was always going to run it 2016 Maybe he ran and, you
know, got a few percentage points. But when he had he what
he thinks he's so called peers laughing at him. And his
detractors laughing at him in a room and you have this guy here.
Just beaten the hell out of you with that we were saying with
the microphone. I think this is is what really made him take the
2016 campaign serious.
And at this point in his, in his own personal career, he had
quite a lot of audience understanding under his belt
with with the TV show
The Apprentice Yeah, I
mean, he really he really understood how audiences respond
and how it works with the marketing of the show. And he
understands he understood television very, very well.
And it's one brand of television that he understood very well,
that's just a little teaser, where we're going in the show.
But before we get there, we had to look at the personality of
Donald Trump and ask the question, Is he a narcissist,
Donald Trump's narrative, and he's a self made Superman, who's
smarter and better educated everybody else. But a new book
from his own nice suggests with everyone but his base has
already figured out he's a fraud. I have no problem calling
Donald a narcissist. He meets all nine criteria, as outlined
in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders. But the label gets us only so far. Mary Trump also
portrays her uncle as a traumatized rich kid with daddy
issues. calling him a clinical narcissist. His personality
served his father's purpose. That's what sociopaths do. They
co opt others and use them toward their own ends,
ruthlessly and efficiently with no tolerance or dissent for for
dissent, or resistance, by limiting Donald's access to his
own feelings, and rendering many of them unacceptable. Fred
perverted his son's perception of the world and damaged his
ability to live in it.
And it's always so nice to see television hosts doing
psychological analysis with the DSM four manual next to them.
If they, if they can do it, we can do it. Oh, yes,
we can. Okay, let's, let's,
I want to say this. I think this is the RIP. I'm gonna say this
before we get into the nine signs of narcissism. I think
this is the ISTE that's the ISP that we really should be paying
attention to. Not the other as the that's labeled this Trump
hit label with
the artist versus the end of the narcissist.
Yes, which you can't spell racist. I mean, can't spell
narcissist without racist?
Oh, like that. Very.
Okay. Yeah. Well, I think that trumps because if no pun
intended there, but I think it Trump's the racism because we'll
start to look at if you're self serving, you will step on
anybody to get what you want. Yes. And I think that's what's
misconstrued about Mr. Donald J. Trump. And as you said, in that,
um, one more thing before we get into the little game we're gonna
play a day said Trump had daddy issues. So this is one of those
things where I am what you say you are,
yes, project, total projection.
Because it's the thought is that feminist and people that don't
like the patriarchy have daddy issues. So now they flip this
thing right back around and saying Trump is a very fragile
person because of weight the way his dad brought him up. So now
we have daddy issues being we talked about daddy issues last
show, with the dad not being there right now we have the
domineering father, the abusive. And I want people to understand
this is why we talk about the patriarchy and why a healthy
father child relationship is so important, because it is non
existent or
abusive or toxic. Yeah. And this is not some discovery we've made
by the way.
No, no, it's not. It's just that we just reinforced that with the
characters that that play out in our everyday lives in the media.
Yeah. So with that said, Would you like to play a size of a
narcissist?
Yes. Okay. So I guess how this works is we listen to a clue,
then we decide if it's correct or not. Is that the idea?
Yes, we got on the nine signs that I'm Miss Reed alluded to in
the DSM. All right, and if it's true or not true, or
All right, all right, here we go. Running it down. We start
with sign number one,
the signature characteristics of many personality disorders can
be quite unpleasant, such as the case of narcissistic personality
disorder. Interacting with an MPD sufferer can be confusing,
frustrating, and even hurtful. The NPD individual will often
overlook or ignore many of these traits that make them unlikable.
A cure nine signs which may be a result of narcissism. One,
instead of listening, they're wrapped up in their own opinion.
Instead of listening, they're wrapped up in their own opinion.
What do you think? Well, I've seen, I've seen the President in
when he does, like a listening session with people and he'll
bring in either companies or, or a dividuals. Whenever I see him
in a in a big now it's usually when he's either about to now
announce something or wants to announce something. And he does
seem to listen. But that's only in those cases. So um, I don't
know, I'm, I'm, do you have a what do you think?
I think you're exactly right. It depends on his setting. And we
noticed this with Trump, and depending on his audience, we
get a different reaction. So I would say that it's true. But
not there's some leeway there. Okay, so in his audience, so we
get a
and we get,
it's all wrong. A little bit all wrong. Yes. Okay. All right. All
right.
You know what, I'll let you control the signs and we'll just
keep rolling. Okay, all right. Here we
go. Number two, two,
they tend to cheat in relationships. narcissists, feel
their treasures that are too good for anyone bring this
attitude into a relationship, and you have lightning waiting
to strike. Cheating is often a way for narcissists to build
their ego. That's wrong.
I think that, that in general, I think he's very loyal to people.
Yes, he's had multiple marriages, but that doesn't
necessarily mean that he's a serial cheater.
So I think we're I think we see Trump through two different
prisms. Are we looking at two different people?
Well, yes, obviously. This all depends on where you see him.
But yeah, of course, if at face value. Yes, he's cheated on.
Always cheated on at least one wife that we know of? What we
don't know why when
I say relationships, I'm not talking about just romantic
relationships. Right. But what about business relationships?
You know, you hear the stories about him and contractors. Sue
me. So I think that's very true.
Yes, you're right. I'm gonna give you I'm gonna give you I'm
gonna give you That's true for that one. Okay. All right. Yeah,
I'm in. Let's go. All right, let's go to number three,
three, they constantly need to be admired. If you've seen a
narcissist, maybe you've seen that the almost swagger oozing
conceit and arrogance with every breath, they may look like they
possess tremendous confidence. But it's not enough. They need
constant admiration. The delusion of always being
entitled to admiration is why people around them often find
themselves emotionally drained to them. There's no greater rush
than being put on a pedestal and worshipped by their fans and
followers.
It's true.
That's true. That's a triple true. No argument on that one
triple true, triple true.
I think we I think we agree on that. Well, I would say one
thing though, they said that they're, the people around them
become emotionally drained. I think that's what the fact they
call it the Trump derangement syndrome. That people become
just so drained by his personality that it has a
negative effect on them. Yeah, I
think. I think that's the number one bad trait he has even people
who like him or or are interested in hearing his
policy. get really tired of of his personality. Yeah.
Some pick some people. No, I think I think some people like
the fact is he he's a troll.
Yes. But I think that's a smaller number than people who
are just like, Okay, I don't want to listen to it.
Okay, I'm Michael Moore. I want to talk talk a lot between these
clips. But Michael Morris said one thing he said he predicted
Trump will win, because he said the regular man would see Trump
as a big fu to the establishment for sure. For sure. So that's
that's, that's why I'm coming out with my own. Okay, my angle
so continue on, for
they do not take any criticism. Well. Have you ever commented on
something someone said and they lashed out at you? Maybe the
reaction was more hostile than expected. They think they're
superior to others around them and believe themselves to be
infallible. They react poorly, maybe yelling, throwing a
tantrum, or with another on reasonable response when they
perceive what you've said might be criticism.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, I got that one. Okay.
Not looking too good.
He's pretty, pretty and NPD is let's go to five, five.
They exploit others without guilt or shame. narcissism and
empathy. Don't go hand in hand. narcissists are unwilling to see
the world from the perspective of others. As a result, they're
able to exploit others without any feeling of remorse. They can
manipulate people to fulfill their own needs, without regard
for the consequences that their actions may have on others.
definitely true. definitely true.
So you'd like to add you want to continue on?
No, we can we can go to six,
six, they belittle others. The narcissist thinks they're the
best and brightest. So sing proof that dictates otherwise,
like someone who is more talented than they are at a
particular activity is a rude shock. The response is to make
sure that the person is below them, where the narcissist feels
most others belong. They tried to be dismissive about the other
person to show that they don't really even care about them. And
if that doesn't work, they resort to personal attacks.
That's true.
Think that's birtherism? Right?
Yeah, pretty much, pretty much. Okay, on to seven,
seven. Yes, they see themselves as more attractive than they
really are. Despite the fact that everyone should feel
attractive. There's a fine line between a healthy self image and
being delusional this line is often crossed by narcissists who
believe that they're exceptionally attractive
regardless of having any imperfections the narcissist
uses this perceived superior attractiveness to justify to
themselves why they're too good for everyone.
Oh man is not looking good for 45 Savage right now. Let's go to
number
eight. They gaslight those who are dear to them ever noticed
feeling that you can't remember anything correctly around a
specific person? When you're with that person? Do you feel a
little like you've lost your mind? That's due to gaslighting,
a tactic narcissists use in order to manipulate and gain
power and control over those around them. gaslighting is
frightening, because it's insidious. The manipulation is
lengthy and gradual. So the victim doesn't notice it
happening.
Let's ask the ladies. That's true. Yeah, they know exactly
what's going on. All right, well, number nine, then it's the
last on the list
nine. They put some people on pedestals. It's true. Our last
sign seems oddly contradictory to the other signs, but it is
very logical. And here's why. narcissists believe that they
have to have perfection in everything, including people
they associate with. a narcissist will often cozy up to
someone higher in status, believing that their perfection
will somewhat rub onto them,
man, okay. What did we get? We got I think we got seven.
We got one split vote and pretty much pretty much all true. Okay.
G sounds like he's a narcissist, MO.
And I'm a I'm not a doctor, you're not a doctor, but maybe
miss Maureen bow. Dowd could chime in on this since she's I
can speak on the classical clinical narcissist.
Is that a weakness of that a lot of politicians have that they
like the people who liked them and just like the people who
just liked them,
yes, Trump is just a very extreme version of other
narcissistic, Paul's or, you know, he is, you know, he's a
classic clinical narcissist. So he's missing empathy. He's, he
has no ability to take a punch. You know, if anyone criticizes
him, he can't let it go. He's like a dog with a bone like with
Miss Universe or earlier with Megyn Kelly. So he's just a much
more extreme version of the typical garden variety form of
narcissism. narcissism, you see in DC with politicians all the
time.
Yeah. Okay. But I think that he that's how he won in business.
I'm quite sure of it.
Yeah, it's, he's a creation of himself. And we're talking about
that a little later. But actually Standing here. All
politicians are most politicians are narcissists. Sure. And we've
seen some of the biggest resistance, for lack of a better
word that we've seen for Donald Trump has been the media
personalities with the biggest personalities. Don Lemon, say,
the White House, yes. Hey, everybody. So they're they're
rubbed the wrong way by his narcissism, but it only exposes
their narcissism. There's narcissistic behavior as well.
So it's it's a beautiful mechanism, a strange phenomenon
that he exposes them by being who he truly is. But he's only
truly himself half the time.
Right. Exactly.
So Andrew Cyril and asked, I think it's a cash thing. Yeah,
they have a podcast together. And they discussed is Donald
Trump a racist,
off the gut. There's no facts to back this up whatsoever. But I
think this is what Trump is when it comes to race. I think Trump
is and maybe purposefully so ignorant to the minority
experience in America. And because he is, he doesn't have
the same level of empathy or compassion. That someone who has
watched maybe their black friend get harassed by the cops or
these types of things. So his mind, he's like, No, I just
treat everybody equal. Like remember back in the day when I
was partying with all the rappers and everybody thought I
was cool. Yeah, just treating them like regular guys. And I
think the rappers and stuff back in the day, we're all like,
yeah, he's just some rich dude, we just treat you regular. You
don't even fucking care. I think they were kind of seduced by
that. But they never had conversation with Trump about
like, empowerment in these neighborhoods, and that kind of
stuff like that. So he I don't know if he's hateful of
minorities. I do not think that he's empathetic.
Interesting. One of the signs. Yeah. Yeah. lack of empathy.
Yeah. No empathy.
I think Andrew is speaking to more of your being a narcissist
as well, that he's just oblivious to other people's
feelings. Yeah, it's just my way of the highway. Pretty much we
just understand, take a little time. And this is where I talk
about sometimes Michelle, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective
People. Yes. And one of those is seek first to understand then to
be understood. And this is why Donald Trump became a
fascinating character to me, because I sought to understand
where he's coming from. And it's dependent upon who he's talking
to, hey, he'll change his facts. He's not tied to ideology,
right? It's all about what's best for pushing forward,
whatever, whenever he wants to behave. Yes, whatever he wants
to achieve. And I think, as you pointed out prior, that that did
make him a successful businessman, because he's not
tied to one method of business. It's a does this work? No, okay,
let's go get some more experts. And that's where you see him
constantly. cashing out people, even in his cabinet. It's like,
Oh, these are the smartest people when he brings them in,
and I'll never dump them out. And they just like, bring some
more smart people in six months later. They're dumb. Yeah. And
it's just this constant.
With very evolution very much like the apprentice actually.
Yeah. And I think that's the business model that he accepted.
And I think that just feeds out of you can answer this question
for me. He's brought his sister's a judge. Right. And his
brother I think drank yourself. You're saying into his own
demise? Yeah. Did you have any other any other siblings? I
think he has. I think he has another brother.
And then after that, he's highly successful as well. I believe
so. Yeah. So I think Trump became successful, but in a way,
in a way he knew how. And that's, you know, that's the
being Donald Trump. He's like, I'm gonna be the best at being
Donald Trump. And that's gonna carry me all the way. Um, so I
got a second clip from the same podcast, and they talk about the
brand of Donald Trump.
I actually think he's a marketing genius.
But take that in and like, let's address that. What do you guys
think about I don't
I don't think I think maybe, but he also doesn't care. I think he
is doesn't care is lack of empathy. No, but like, I think
yeah, he's just looking at it as the main thing to me is like, I
know how to win. I know How to market myself as a winner move
when,
like talk about the man like not about winning the election like
truly like, like, remember it really? The light bulb went off
for me when he said to black people use like, what do you got
to lose? Just come to like that was his pitch to black people.
It's pitch black. He was like, we're gonna help you we're gonna
figure out why understand what you go through. I understand the
tough things about this systemic racism, the view the experiences
created these environment. Literally the thing was just try
it.
He had he grew up with three siblings. Okay, three, no three,
three elder siblings Maryanne Fred Jr, Elizabeth and one
younger brother Robert. And so Fred juniors? He's no longer
there. But Robert is. But yes, and I'm sure
that put a lot of pressure on him. Fred Jr. The way he turned
out. And I think that's where he wanted to please his father. So
I mean, is some sure it makes sense of validity there. How
because we have to talk about the know how the raising of
these people shaped who they are. And Donald Trump figured
out I can be the best at being me. And that's all I need to do.
And it'll give me a long way through life.
And it certainly has,
definitely has it, but it rubs people the wrong way. Because
you got to look at who his peers are now in the circles he's in.
They're very highly educated. They, you know, cross the t's
and dot every eye. And it's like how this guy get to the same
place or a lot of these politicians and news reporters
had dreams of being President. Yeah, kind of got derailed along
the way, but then that rubs him even more like this. How did he
do?
How does that work? I bet he's not even a billionaire. Let's go
prove it.
Yep. So I think we're gonna, we're gonna get back to those
comments that he made to those so called black community, but
we need to lay out some things first. And first of all, we need
to figure out how Donald Trump credit Donald Trump before he
was a presidential
candidate.
And I've been saying for years, keep the oil, keep the oil,
don't let him have the oil.
Before he was a reality TV star. You're fired. Donald Trump was a
New York tabloid fixture. All through the 1980s Trump was busy
building something new. And it wasn't a skyscraper
millionaire developer Donald Trump has put his name on a New
York City Hotel shopping center and apartment buildings, as well
as the casino in Atlantic City. And now he's going to put his
name on a big piece of Eastern Airlines.
Trump was creating a public persona, one that could be both
funny and demeaning, arrogant, and somehow in touch with the
common man.
I sort of love and hate him at the same time. I mean, I think
he has, you know, a monumental ego.
He comes off as being very what's the word I'm looking for?
Arrogant? Yeah. He's arrogant. Like, me got everything. He
often did this by picking
fights. You said I think Donald Trump is an artful liar. I think
he is a greedy, vicious and arrogant man.
Well, I don't know. Is that supposed to be a compliment or
not? I'm not sure.
He waged a years long battle with New York City Mayor Ed
Koch.
I hope that New York City has a different mayor at some point
because I think it catches a total disaster. A bad man for
the city. He helped
launch a competitor to the NFL called the US Football League,
and then launched a lawsuit against the NFL when the USFL
failed.
The jury in the case delivered its verdict. It ruled the NFL
did indeed monopolize pro football, but it awarded damages
of just $1
Oh, yeah. So there's your there's your NFL beef.
And it's ongoing. And it's like, okay, if you notice, you know,
Father, Son of a bitch, you know, that kind of now he's
like, now that the NFL has because NFL wasn't taking action
against Colin Kaepernick. And now he came back was like, oh,
you know, I think Colin Kaepernick deserves another
chance. It's like whatever to call chaos.
Gaslight.
That's fantastic. Yeah,
exactly. So we're saying he's not taught to anything, that and
if you understand that about him, and you understand him
greater,
and I guess for everybody, and everyone has a little bit of
narcissism in them. It kind of shows it makes you feel like, oh
my god, that's so ugly. You know, but in your subconscious,
like, gosh, I'm kind of like that, you know, you're
projecting your own ugliness when you recognize it almost is
and,
and the Democrat. I mean, excuse me and the demographics that
hate him the most. The young millennials are the most
narcissists. Everything they do in vain. Like look at me, look
at me like my Post who? Yeah, yeah, look at me, look at me,
you know, do this look, you know, that's life
never
Yeah, living my best life ever. Right? Well, then they have to
stay for him when they it's this weird. Always said the best
thing that ever happened with Donald Trump getting elected
because he kind of pulled back the veil on everything. Now we
have to all the behaviors that he does that we all still do. It
points out people as hypocrites, right? And one of the things I
don't want to do, that's why I don't have a seated hatred for
Donald Trump, when I don't have that for any person, but if I
hold him accountable for something, then I have to hold
myself accountable for it. But I think a lot of people don't do
that. And that's why they can easily hate Trump for
themselves.
Mo Are you secretly a psychologist? Do you have a
degree do you have? Do you have a medical license? I think
you've been a mom
that has, that's a therapy.
So that'll do it. As you screw up per kid, well, good job, Mom.
Let's see. So we stopped off with foreshadow foreshadowed,
though there was one industry that had a huge impact on Donald
Trump. Everybody was saying, oh, was Facebook, it was the
Russians. It was this. It was that why he won the election,
the data collection that he did know that Donald Trump had one
tactic and that was to basically turn the presidential race of
2016 into a wrestling match.
Before he was president, Donald Trump was once part of a world
that celebrated body slams obnoxious, Hans, I'm taller
than you. better looking than you.
In spandex costumes, called Wrestlemania. And during the
2000s, Trump found themselves center stage, playing a
character named, of course, Donald Trump. In 2007, he
appeared in a series of pro wrestling events playing a rival
to Vince McMahon, who was chairman of World Wrestling
Entertainment, also known as the WWE. WrestleMania fights are
scripted, and the climax of their so called rivalry is an
episode where Trump shape McMahon's head. Trump also
hosted WrestleMania events at Trump Plaza in Atlantic City in
the 80s. Recently, he picked McMahon's wife, Linda, to lead
the Small Business Administration. Oh, right now,
he's making the President's wrestling ring. On Sunday. He
tweeted a doctored clip from his 2007 bout showing him wrestling
with CMS. Man, CNN condemned the tweet saying it is a sad day
when the President of the United States encourages violence
against reporters.
It's so clear now when you think of it in these terms, this is
great. This is very exciting. Oh, I have a new look on on the
situation. Although very familiar things. It all feels
familiar.
His whole approach was a wrestling approach the cities
that he stopped that the arenas that he used man gave him the
whole blueprint of life here because in wrestling, here's
your here's your stage on song. You know, when you come out to
here's the one you leave to, here's
the shit you do. Gao when he comes out. He gets
your signature, your signature phrase your signature thumbs.
Oh, yeah. Incredible. And I
think he took this blueprint of how do I reach everyday man? Oh,
well, everyday man and the places that he wants to reach
like pro wrestling. So what did he give him? A pro wrestler show
not knock the hell out of them. I'll pay for I mean, like that
was like that was can you smell what the rock is cooking kind of
thing? Or? The Austin? Yeah, it has everything except the most
raucous. I mean, that's what the word is attached to these
rallies is raucous because it gets the people going. But you
ever watched wrestling? It's very visceral.
It's raucous. But yet it's completely safe for a family
outing. Like a WWE match. Exactly. It's like you can bring
you can bring, bring the wife, you can bring everybody you can
all hang out.
Y'all can yell, y'all can yell and cuss. Wherever you want to
move. We hate you. And he gives them that you have everything
except for the match. Right? Because it's like it's called
the promo. He's in his rallies is the is actually a term in
wrestling. And I identified this because growing up, I'm gonna
say this about a little inside baseball. There's a high
percentage of black people that enjoy wrestler wrestling, and
I'm especially older people. One of my good friends, his grandma
would order every WrestleMania I don't care what she had to do.
She was gonna get WrestleMania and And he tapped into that.
That vein,
that demographic? Yeah. Oh, the demographic
if you know he stops is the same starts where WWE will stop using
this same exact
the same format, the same format the same venue and the venue
places. Oh my goodness. I did not know this. This is great. We
already figured out his strategies plan.
Yeah, and we were even more exposed to a little bit more but
let's get into the second wrestling clip.
Producers and others who worked in and follow pro wrestling told
The Associated Press that Trump's blunt communication
style is similar to his win at all costs wrestling character.
Your grapefruits are no match for my Trump Towers.
Like pro wrestlers, he uses catchphrases, and attaches
insults to rivals names.
Hillary Clinton campaign.
They see echoes of pro wrestling and Trump's appearances to his
backlit slow walk at the Republican Convention and his
tiger like pacing on stage behind Hillary Clinton during a
presidential debate by copays. One former event producers said
Trump employed a classic tactic in a news conference when he
ordered CNN reporter Jim Acosta to be quiet. Taking a page from
what many think of as the fake sport of pro wrestling is gonna
give Trump lashed out,
they kind of you are fake news, sir, go ahead. And you stay
categorically that nobody
you know, and so many so many times, we've talked about
already I know I've talked about that. Trump is like a WWE
wrestling match. But when you really lay it all out, and you
break down the elements of pro wrestling, I mean, we can almost
predict every single thing that's going to happen next now,
not necessarily the outcome, he doesn't control all the all of
the script, but man, he knows, he knows what the audience
wants, as long as he can create that one next media event to
carry them through to the to the one after that. He plays
everybody like a fiddle.
And not only not only wrestling, but he grew up he was very close
with boxing as well. And Boston has the same aspect of you, you
have only have one fight, right Fight Night, but you have to
build up over a matter of three months, six months. That way you
get people engaged and want to say I'm gonna spend this $75 and
pay per view. So this is, this is what I witnessed, and it
really clicked with me. I noticed it, but it really
clicked with me when he came to Leesburg right before the 2016
election. And the people staying it till two o'clock in the
morning for him to show up because he was running late. And
it's like, wow, like, this is amazing that he would like these
people are really they really want their show. There.
Therefore the show is not about politics or policy or none of
that crap. It's about we got our guy that talks to biggest crap.
And you know, he's the biggest baddest crap talker. And I'm
gonna say this, and I might get killed for it. But I honestly
believe one of the things so called Black people have a
problem with is Obama wasn't that for us. That He wouldn't,
you know, just go to the mat, for lack of a better term, but,
you know, just like lay it out there. Um, for my people, you
know, screw y'all that kind of thing, right? And we see
followed up behind him. It's like, wow, why don't why don't
we have that? Why didn't he? Why didn't he ride for us the way
that Trump rides for his base?
Could you give an example of how he would ride? I mean, what what
would the the TV show equivalent of Obama's format be? What could
he okay? This is unique.
So, say for instance, I mean, just being vocal for your base.
That's the thing like with Trayvon Martin, these are the
things he was kind of like, well, we'll have to wait and
see, you know, that kind of thing. Like Trump, he's out.
He's out there. Oh, we gotta get to the bottom of it, you know,
very fine people.
That kind of thing. It's the bulkiness of it. It's not, it's
not even Yeah, we didn't know you could play that way. It's
like, we didn't know you could play President bottles rules. We
got screwed for eight years. I mean, just out of the, you know,
the, you know, just having somebody to know
like, Where was before where was the black version of this guy?
Is what you think, right? I got you.
Because we were always telling you, we got you out to build a
coalition. You got to help the greater coalition this guy like
on for my 40% and whatever they will make my 40% gets Yeah, so
that kind of thing is like we missed out on that. I think
that's I think that's a real sentiment and with Obama. So
yeah, with Obama. Now, here's this is Triple H. And he makes a
statement that Trump may think that wrestling is real. In
Washington, yeah, sure. How worried were you when you
thought Vince McMahon was dead if I hadn't
seen them pre taping we got in and we saw that what kills me is
so many people call I mean the obvious next day like people I'm
not kidding you like and it seems like Trump dolls and
lovers like something happened to
not understand the
magic of television. We gotta get out of your triple A's All
right, so this is something I wasn't aware of what happened
with this this
man had this they had a you know, like gag for lack of
better word, but where his limousine blew up. Obviously
Trump called triple he was like, It's okay.
And he didn't know this. He wasn't in on that day.
I don't believe so. He wasn't No, he wasn't in on it. But it's
just that. What do you want to find out? A lot of people think
wrestling is real. And you get a lot of put uncle that man you he
would kick you out his house. If you say wrestling was fake. So I
mean, it's a real touchy thing. So I'm just laying out the
pathology of the of a typical wrestling fan that they buy.
It's even Trump being a wrestler wrestling fan himself,
he buy into into the scam. Oh, my goodness.
x now we had to get into the nuts and bolts of hollow
wrestling production gets down. Good and love this. So this is
from pro wrestling 101. And this is getting heel heat.
Today I want to talk about getting heel heat. And what I
mean by that is, you know more more than just being heel is
being hated. Too many times. Nowadays, I think fans and
wrestlers want to be a heel. But they want to be liked. They want
to be cheered. They want to be cool. And nowadays, I think so
many guys don't know what it really means to get heel heat.
You know, it's just it just means to me at least being the
worst possible guy the worst possible competitor, you could
be out there. I mean, it's more than you know, guy that you say
be a heel, Indy guys. And even on the big stage. Even in WWE, I
find that and even especially in TNA for guys go out there and
they just cut a promo, and they knock everybody down and they
yell and they scream. And you know, they do the stereotypical
bad guy he'll thing. But it's so much more than that. If you look
at the classics, the real guys that stand out, they cheated to
win. They were ruthless to win. They, you know, they were
whatever the babyface was, they were the complete opposite of
what he stood for. And it meant going forward in there. I mean,
it I mean, it's about kicking somebody when they're down. It's
about doing anything cerebral cerebral, you know, that you
could do to just combat what that baby face is doing. Because
sounds so familiar.
So now let's go back and look at the birther situation through
this lens of the wrestling narrative, okay. Okay, I need to
I need to define a few terms here. So the heel is the bad
guy. And he's said to be the bad guy. And then you have the baby
face, which that's the good guy. And so in the birther situation,
Obama's the baby face, everybody loves zoom, and Trump the heel,
and Trump set himself up to be the hero. how toxic the birther
thing would be, but he's like, No, as the gentleman just laid
out, and then here you have to do the most despicable thing
possible
to be to be identified as the heel in the relationship
according to the audience.
Yes. And then the audience is going to take up for the baby
face of course, where he knew that going in I watched that all
this was planned. Other than I don't think he would think he
wouldn't let baby face bury. I'll get the best of him. So,
baby, so very
okay, so um, nothing that's the only miscalculation he had, but
that was still a fuel for him. Yeah, to drive for the combat
for the
great wrestling has got to come back. You bet.
You got to have the comeback. Well, let's get into heel heat
too.
But it's so much more than that. It's about deliberate, nasty
aggression. It's about just you know, cheating to win. It's
about breaking rules and just doing everything that is not
right. And in sometimes you gotta think about it. It's not
that cut and dry. It's not black and white and more guys aren't
doing it. Because they, you know, it's there's easier ways
out of it. But if you look in history and in today's wrestling
business of guys that have success, and they're very few
today, but as you know, especially back in the 80s, if
you go back and look at some of the classic heels and our
business, you will see what that is. I mean, it could be small
things.
Okay, so who are the classic heels from wrestling?
Well, we got to look at a heel. We got to look at the heel of
all heels. Mr. Ric Flair,
wrestling Ric Flair. And here is the World Heavyweight Champion.
Girls. Why don't you give it to him one more time. We're
standing here today. The World Heavyweight Champion I gotta
talk, we all gotta be quiet. We've only just begun. That's
the end of it. dusty roads. Don't ever make a mistake on
sticking your nose in my business. I'll get up and take
care of myself. So dusty roads. Remember when you walk out here?
Talking Ric Flair. Don't think you can walk into a ring and
give me a hand or trying to help me out and ease the tension in
our relationship. Philadelphia, I've got to tell you that. When
I get the town, we're going to treat all you women, the way
women ought to be treated. And the real men are going to take
that Civic Center apart. And then we are going to be over a
rodeo driving the women Wow.
Then sounds like rally Trump pretty much pretty much
my little Marco.
Exactly. Little Marco bubble boy. You know, I alluded to
before knock the hell out of him. Get him out of here. I
mean, even he even has friendly fire. Right? One guy out there
was overweight. Look how fat he is. And it was actually one of
his own guys, one of his supporters.
And only yesterday remember that? I remember that. Yeah.
And it's the porter even took a picture with Matt.
Yeah, you're right. I needed to get out of a fatso. And let's
take a picture. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's
me out. If I get that baby out of here.
I don't think a lot of people really done this depth of
analysis. Moses is very injured. I love it. And also, you know
the angle you're coming. I'm not I mean, of course. I've watched
wrestling. My daughter loves wrestling. I know people love
wrestling. But now. It's like we get a free wrestling show. You
don't have to pay 75 bucks. For pay per view.
Just have to watch the wrestling part. I want people to
understand the wrestling part, the actual match in the pins and
the moves. That's only a small portion of the show. Yes. I
mean, if you actually come I grew up I was forced to watch
wrestling. Cuz my oldest older brother not my oldest, but my
older brother. He was a huge fan. So he would come in
Saturday mornings. I whenever I'm watching a turn turn it over
to WWF ended up NWA those kinds of things. And so I grew out of
it kind of young I mean, maybe 910 I mean I'm I still liked it
but Ric Ric Flair is like one of my favorite characters period. I
mean not even just wrestling I'm talking about in life because
why he's from North Carolina. He was the Nature Boy and I never
saw anybody talk this much excuse my language cash shit.
And doing so well.
So well. Right.
Everybody else alive? What question girls all around the
world. Keep asking me the same question
and my cousin wanted to know what's causing all this? You
know what it is? intensified beef products you're talking
about? All man? Ric Flair
World Heavyweight Champion?
Totally, totally
after Trump all day, and if you listen to the prior clip to that
when Rick started into named cities, right called a flame,
same Safe Cities Trump coast with his arenas, oh my, but that
it but it is super important that he gets that arena. And
that is kind of his big payoff. It's not, it's not really
complete unless people can come to the arena. And this has been
the problem with the Rona.
And that's why the rallies were so demonized because they
understand that's the, that's the payoff energy where it
happened. That is the energy and I'm gonna lay out something here
and we'll play the next clip that I lay this out. That is not
about Trump either is bigger than Trump. Now, these rallies
have people to go from rally to rally to rally following him
like a rock band like the Grateful Dead. Exactly. So they
don't they're gonna go out and vote just to keep the show going
for another four years. Doesn't matter about his policy. None of
that is like it gives older people something to get out the
house about, you know, he's gonna come and it's gonna
be sure. Oh, it's a free show.
It's a free show. But I bet you they support him value for value
because I mean, it's okay, get the free show. But then they get
he gets the donations versus donations, retweets lecture, he
gets a trade off. But the point I'm trying to make here is not
only do they not want to see Trump leave, they will don't
want to see this phenomenon or this experience of coming to
their city two or three times next four years. They don't want
to give that up like Lollapalooza. Exactly. So let's
get to New Jersey Trump rally.
massive crowds. Look at these gathering in Wildwood waiting to
hear the President speak. Some of his supporters have been
camping out there for more than two days now. We have team
coverage for you. Let's start with news four's Brian Thompson
live in Wildwood among those massive crowds, Brian.
Yeah, the crowds are pretty big out here. I gotta say police
estimating a little while ago at least 12,500 going in or on the
streets here of Wildwood. They open the doors a little before
three. But look at you can still see this kind of through those
people. There's an end of the line there. But my guess is at
this point, they probably won't get in the story all day, the
lines of people waiting and hoping to get in somebody's 400
seat Convention Center. Before you could say you were at the
end of the line. More people got in line behind you. If you don't
get here.
Wow. Yep. It's not a bad thing. Um, here's what the gentleman
said. So it's not even about getting in. It's the, I mean,
you got and I don't want to be ageist here. But you got God's
50 Plus, you know, blue diamonds are flying everywhere, you know,
and it's the next snag and the old chicks was older. I mean, it
gives you something to get the house to, I mean, you're not
going to clubs or bars anymore. It's like when you go I'm going
out to the Trump rally. He's coming to town. Yeah. And that's
why they want to stop it with the Coronavirus.
Yes, that is dammit mo hence, damage. I'm glad it takes a
younger man to teach me stuff about Trump. Thank you.
Alright, so now we can go back to what they alluded to before
about his comments to the black voter, but we have to look at it
through the lens of the heel and the wrestling narrative.
No group in America has been more harmed by Hillary Clinton's
policies than African Americans. No group, no group. If Hillary
Clinton's goal was to inflict pain on the African American
community, she could not have done a better job. So disgrace.
Tonight I'm asking for the vote of every single African American
citizen in this country who wants to see a better future.
Wow. He doesn't have to say what she did wrong. Doesn't even have
to
know is the chaos.
Say it beautiful.
And listen to the talk and listen to the crowd. It will get
worked up. You know, they're getting me on and getting all
lathered up to chance about the comb. Yeah, African Americans
Yeah, whatever he said that I mean, that goes back to the
state when I didn't clip it cuz I mean, everybody knows it. Wow.
100 times.
You heard this before it before the payoff question. When you
You heard this, like, up until this moment, this clip right
here. What did you think?
I'm not he's actually saying that no other politician has the
balls to say that,
that Hillary Clinton did worse for African Americans or just
the fact that he's talking about it at all. We knew
it, but it's no pile. It was kind of like a buddy buddy.
Republicans weren't really sad because they kind of voted for
the crime bill, too. I think this is one of the things where
Trump was similar with Obama with the war and you're saying
the Middle East? He had no part of it so we can be
okay, got it.
Yeah, so he's getting the crowd all worked up. And then we go
into the famous line that kind of brought the show together.
Look how much African American communities have suffered under
democratic control. To those I say the following. What do you
have to lose by trying something new like Trump? When he
unimproved Trump's tasty now with peanut butter?
I say it again, what do you have to lose? Look, what do you have
to lose? You're living in poverty. Your schools are no
good. You have no jobs. 58% of your youth is unemployed. What
the hell do you have to lose? At the end of four years, I
guarantee you that I will get over 95% of the African American
vote, I promise you.
Over 94% This is great. So what we need to do is make sure
everyone knows he's a racist. It's impossible.
And here's the gaslighting from endorsed narcissism. No, you're
not I get 95% of the African 95%. And no, you're going to
swing your for 85% One way 80% One way to 95% the other way,
but no, it's gaslighting. Now here comes the narcissism
again. It's fantastic. Yeah. 95% Guaranteed. Try Trump now with
with fresh new smelling scent.
And the third person you gotta love that. I mean, he'll be him
refer to himself with a single name.
It says it's like, yeah, great product.
It's the brand. It's the brand that we were talking about.
Being a winner. It's a winner and
you should do that more often. Try Trump. That's a really
strong statement.
That is that is a good one. Yeah. So wrestling has not only
had an impact on Donald Trump, but other American originals.
One being Mr. Muhammad Ali.
He was not great. A talker. Tony met Gorgeous George in Las
Vegas. I saw a
wrestler was named gorgeous joy. Plays was down back with people
causes of the mouth. They hated God this guy they want him to
meet but they paid $100 a ringside seat so gorgeous.
George walked out with his pretty silver hair. And he was
walking so proud people's booth are your fans Ah
don't count on the mouse you I can't lose. cuddle my long locks
in the ring. Look at my beautiful blonde hair. If you
mess up this her are killing our knowledgeable I can't move off
the greatest.
I got this gorgeous George. This was a good idea. Look, he's
getting ripped. So I started talking.
I am the greatest. I cannot be beat. I'm too pretty to be a
fighter. What he's doing is he's taking the American culture
what's in the air at the time and he invents something called
Cash is clay the greatest.
Wow. With the hair no less with their hair.
Gorgeous George. Ric Flair. Donald Trump they all have this
blonde hair. I don't know what it is about the blonde hair but
as you heard Ali say and they and Ali took what he learned
from Gorgeous George and that's how you came up with Kashi
Kelly. The biggest understanding one of the biggest jump talkers
there is but he was willing to play the heel.
He'll phenomenon is so good. This is so spot on. Absolutely.
And then a certain point. He just had everybody and then he
You can see it was still the same. Muhammad Ali was still
there had an arrogant thing about him, but everybody loved
him.
And he wasn't as love now as he would mean he wasn't as loved as
he is now back then. Exactly. It's very, very polarizing
figure, want for his war views, but for other reasons as well.
But let's wrap up with the Gorgeous George Couric clip and
then we'll get into some of the other statements that Ali made.
It's a self creation, it's a very American thing. And cashes
claim. Muhammad Ali to me is writ large, one of those self
invented American characters,
Cassius Clay understood that ultimately, we're just hungry
for copy. So if you give us copy, as long as you give us
copy, you can you can pull our strings and we have to write
about you and Cassius Clay was able to frame the story the
narrative was
so the media knows it's like a new Ollie. Yeah, as long as he's
given us copy laws, He's given us caught Wisconsin.
Put him on no matter what he's saying. He's doing poetry flow,
click Float like a butterfly sting like a bee. He's great.
Put them on TV.
And so Trump, I'm sure he's aware of Ollie because of his
involvement in the boxing, you know? Sure. And the wrestling so
he's aware of this creating, you know, the atmosphere of tension
and driving that tension to you to you know, meet your goal. But
yeah, well, I Lee just like Trump if we want to use the
castle cannon, yeah, we can't so I leave for his ratio
integration stamp standpoint. Proof I know he went out now
we're getting into now you can get me Are you getting
into the meat, the meat and potatoes? Exactly. What exactly
was his racial statement?
On immigration? Let's listen. I got a clue.
I understand. Yeah, I do understand. I understand. I
think it's, I think sad that underneath. Because every
intelligent person wants his child to look like him. I'm sad
because I want to blot out my race and lose my beautiful
identity. Chinese love Chinese. They love the loss none of that
pretty brown skinned babies. Pakistan is love their culture.
Jewish people love the culture. A lot of Catholics don't want to
threaten them. The Catholics they want the religion to be
stayed the same. Who want to spot up yourself and kill your
race. You you hate of your people. If you don't want to
stay who you are You shame what God made you. God didn't make no
mistake. We made us all
like my philosophy and disperse this.
Number one. No woman on this whole earth, not even a black
woman in Muslim countries can please me and cook for me and
socialize and talk to me like my American black woman, woman and
last as a white man can really identify with me and my feelings
and the way I act and we are taught.
Yeah, yeah, he Wow, he went really far in that.
Yeah, he would definitely get the council candidate. If he was
living in 2020. Oh, no,
he would be like, here, here we go. They're like, Hey, guys,
look over here.
It'd be all over it be all over. Wow.
And even he even alluded to the difference. I'm gonna just a
small aside, he even alluded to the difference between the
African American and black and blacks and other countries
because he didn't make it a race thing. Because he was like, even
a woman and you know, an African country, she could understand
me. But I'm just saying, if we want to look at the people
through a certain lens, we might start having to get rid of a lot
of American heroes and originals. This was why this is
very dangerous.
Or, or people get used to this and see it for what it really is
and allow themselves to like it, or we get another strong
competitor on the stage. There's more people who can play this
game.
That's true. That's true. But yeah, I just don't think Ali
would. That's, that's that's a tough one because they I mean,
this goes, this goes to back to my statement, I'll repeat often
the man versus the product. The Ollie product is so great now
that he gets a pass on these statements and they kind of like
gloss it over. Because they don't want to ruin how he was
used later on in his life. by people with their own agendas.
So I mean, I said this is a slippery slope when we start
talking about if you just play that clip, I mean or not even if
you just had the transcript of that and take his name off Oh,
no, it would be completely unacceptable. completely
unacceptable
what he said. So now we're being hypocrites. Yep. This goes back
to the thing again, a hypocrite. You know, we're being
hypocritical. And we don't want to start looking ourselves in
the mirror and say, do we judge one person in this way and other
person the other way?
Right. But alright, so it also there's if Trump is doing this,
a new heel can come in the game.
Well, I don't think you have to heels. Well. Can you out hill a
heel? I mean, because they didn't
hospitably possibly.
I think the Democrats try that. That's what you hear the Biden.
I'll take them out behind the woodshed. That kind of thing.
Yeah. Right. And it just doesn't fall right. Because y'all been
baby faces?
Well, for so long. Exactly. That's the right you need a
fresh guy to come in who can be the heel of all heels a new guy
or gal or some who
would that be? Who would that be on the Democratic side? Who
would you
doesn't have to be a Democrat? I mean, maybe we'll have to maybe
kind of maybe Kanye.
But I think Kanye is he's miked up with Trump through the
serpent energy which that's that's gonna write a whole
nother show.
It is I'm just saying and the wolf king in the in the world in
the world of wrestling, you do get new winners that come in.
But I never seen a heel upset or unseated by another heel. It'll
have to be no need another Obama, they'll need another baby
face that you feel so sympathetic for that the heels
taken on and will make you turn against the heel.
Do Okay, well, anyway, just reminiscing. Okay? Hold it up. I
know we will. But since we're talking wrestling, we have
another component of pro wrestling. And that's
storytelling.
So what I really wanted to go over today is, is quite
honestly, you know how to tell a story, doing something
compelling, because let's face it, guys, you know, pro
wrestling. We're storytellers. You know, that's what we do. And
a lot of guys from my era know this better than anybody in the
business. But I think a lot of times the younger generation,
especially translate it to the indie level, guys have a real
hard time. So I always like to start from the finish you know,
what, what is the promoter want from the match? You know, so
I'll get the finish I know hey, you know, I'm going to Tombstone
you 123 That's the finish and then I personally and a lot of
other guys do we like to go backwards? You know and a lot of
guys don't do this as well. Is the comeback of a match is the
most important I mean just picture like a rocky and Apollo
I know I'm dating myself believe me too, you know 70 stuff but
you know Rocky Balboa was getting the crap beat out of
them, you know, the whole the whole night the whole match. And
then finally against all odds, you know, the music starts
playing he makes a comeback uh, you know, through everyone's
surprised he's coming he's coming he fights to stay alive.
And that's what really you know, pro wrestling is it's it's a
story of survival. It's a guy the underdog fighting from
underneath. And then you build and you build I mean, a lot of
guys have a you know, in a comeback. A heel should be right
there for the baby face bump, feed bone feed has to be there
because believe me in that split second. If a baby face does not
have a heel pop and up for him if the heels just lead assing on
the ground and not coming up. You know, the crowd dies, you
lose them in a millisecond.
Oh, my baby face Joe is just perfect, isn't he?
Yeah, cuz they could, they could really write the script for Joe.
They can make him be whatever they need him to whatever
they want him to respond to whatever they want him to say
they can make him do it all because that's the reactionary
nature of, of old fashioned politics.
What in the last 20 seconds of that clip? The media has to keep
Trump because they
they're the show that Trump is the
as the guy said, you can lose the crowd and a slit or even a
millisecond. And if you lose the crowd, you lose your audience.
You lose your ratings. That's it. And if you notice, I want to
point one thing out. If you notice this Trump came alone, we
haven't had any international strong men. No, Osama No. Saddam
Hussein. mean,
you got the one, the one terrorist guy we took him out.
For the fourth time
Baghdadi. Baghdad is dead again, ladies and gentlemen,
what Trump used Trump use them saying, but the media didn't use
them Trump use, I'm saying the media, they're like, Oh, we got
our hill. I mean, because that's all you need to keep people in
game, right?
Exactly. You don't need Kim Jong on you don't need anybody
really.
And actually, they make Kim Jong on the good guy. That's the did
smarter. Ah,
this has been a great education on professional wrestling. In
fact, this could be a college course, professional wrestling,
applied politics in professional wrestling something there's,
there's a whole college course, just doing this as really good.
And I really like it really love it.
So before we continue on, for all the unaware people, and the
people that want to do the work, you can use this next clip to
explain what Mofaz is, when Adam curve is all about, the white
man and the black man have to be able to sit down at the same
table, the white man has to feel free to speak his mind without
hurting the feelings of that negro. And the so called Negro
has to feel free to speak his mind without hurting the
feelings of the white man, then they can bring the issues that
are under the rug out on top of the table and take an
intelligent approach to get the problem solved. What's the only
way we'll ever do it?
And that is in a nutshell, in the words of Malcolm X, exactly
what Moe facts with Adam curry is all about. And we get a lot
of help from our producers who are very aware as they're doing
the work. We're working on our new vocabulary here. I'm kind of
getting used to it, but I like it. Yes. And all we ask is a
very simple question. Did you find any value in your MO facts
with Adam curry episode, and if so how much value was that
that's very different for every single individual. For you, it
could be maybe $5. If you equate it to a night out the movies,
which is also two to three hours, you may wind up spending
a lot more and but you felt that was good value for $50. It's
really up to the individual. And all we want is just enough
people to support us to keep us going. So we don't have no other
way to do this. Clearly these conversations can happen with an
advertising or any other monetization because canceled
culture pops up and we'd never get a chance to talk. So here we
are. We're talking and we'd like to thank our executive
producers, our Associate Executive producers and the
producers who have made episode number 45. Possible. And we
start off with Anonymous, who has a pseudonym Dred Scott. And
he comes in with $1,111.11 111 1.11. And this
according to our new scale, which we're launching today,
makes him an our very first live ally. And He is the Executive
Branch ally. And he is an instant ally, since he's
straight on goes up to $1,000. That's the level any any person
who supports the show, who is a producer, by supporting us with
any amount, once it tallies up to $1,000. Over time, it could
be a year it could be 10 years, you will be an ally that is our
promise to you and you will be named as such. And you can put
it on your on your shirt on your basketball shirt that you wear
around town.
It's your social media profiles. Yes.
Oh, yeah. You're an official ally. And in Yes, and official,
and it proves that you have done the work. And you've completed
ally status. And this is no less official than Robin D'Angelo
giving you a course. Except it's a lot easier to become an ally
here and Dred Scott has noticed this, thank you for your great
work, donation of one for you guys completing your first year.
He says no jingles, no karma, but we really appreciate that.
Dred Scott ain't hence the ally. And I think we have a couple
more people who may have contributed that aggregate
amount. I'm not sure but we'll find out. You got to do your own
administration for now and email us let us know you can find all
the information at mo facts.com. Is that clear? Mo Do you think I
did that? Do you think I made that clear? We're doing Yes.
Perfect.
So just I mean, if I need to tidy up a little bit, I'll do it
all for the people that are not listening to the show. They're
unaware. People are listening to the show are aware. And then you
pick up your ally ship once you hit the numbers and then we have
other levels as well, so, but it goes to show that you're doing
the work. And you could put it in your social media profiles
and push back against people saying, Hey, I am doing the
work, right? Yeah,
it's actually more honest, than the NBA players who have ally on
their shirt. I saw I saw the game was it the Utah Jazz
against who does jazz play?
No, I haven't. You know what, I haven't even watched the NBA
since.
Oh, man, I had played back, I had to watch because I want to
see what they did with the crowds. And it was really weird,
that screens all around the side of the court. So in front you'd
have like coaches and you know, socially distanced people then
on either side, you have cheerleaders sitting there kind
of socially distance. And then you'd have the screens behind
them big screens. It was like the screens where it's a virtual
set. And people were using their webcam to project their image
into their spot in the stands.
Which was going out this all wrong. Really weird.
And then you know, the players had Black Lives Matter say your
name. The one white guy on the floor, his his said, Ally.
You're more ally when you support this show that that to
me was hilarious. Anyway, I digress. Interesting. I've seen
more NBA this season than you have. The world has gone crazy,
I tell you. We dropped down to $200 from Hunter Jennings, who
will be our second executive producer for episode 45. And the
first time Moe fax donor had to after episode 43 And 44 says
Hunter they were super hot fire. Seriously though, amazing work.
I'm sharing far and wide, which means you're making people aware
by doing the work I just made my first donation to no agenda as
well and couldn't leave out this gem of a podcast as well. Keep
doing the work and I will do the same dealer's choice on jingles.
Why don't we just hand out of Mo calm I think that's well
deserved.
Let's see we have our next executive producer is Santiago
Munoz with another another sack of sticks. One One all five ones
in a row. This donation is an appreciation of the education
education you guys have provided me. I'm a Romo convert that's
catching on, which means someone went from Rogen to no agenda to
mo facts and supports all three in the process. I've learned
more about race in this country from the podcast than I have in
the past 20 years of living in Baltimore. I love how you guys
are bringing to light that the establishment is using race to
mask the class oppression going on right now. Oppression truly
is colorblind. There's something I perceive or growing up in
Midian Colombia where classism is very evident. Yeah. Okay,
this is boots on the ground, which leads me to the following
Rona update from down south. I'm getting married in October and
when like for some of my family members to attend. After talking
to my godmother, she informed me that Colombia is not allowing
any domestic or international flights even all the bus
terminals are shut down. The economy is in shambles and they
informed me they've never seen this level of violence before
which is saying a lot for people who survived the violence of the
80s and the 90s Hunger looting is rampant at the moment. I
believe this might be one of the frontlines for the proxy war
against China with the second most aid coming from the US goes
to Colombia just after Israel since a war between Colombia and
Venezuela seems to be inevitable Wow. Okay, that's something that
holy moly very boots on the ground right
yeah, Santiago Santiago thank you so much and and keep us
updated on the situation because that's that's one that is
definitely not something you can find in the M five m we need
some more reporting and thank you for supporting the show and
for being an executive producer. Ryan shears comes in with 109
dot 99 mo This is to make up for the failed pop money transfer.
As they say no good deed goes unpunished. I tried to apply the
no agenda logic and cut down on fees instead of following your
directions. Please give a WUSA to Travis and his daughter

out of the shadows. Each episode gets better and better. Thank

work and please send good vibes for those trying to expand their
families. Oh yeah. The 109 point 99 is for the other attempted
$100 dollar donation. And the 999 is just because thanks and
that is from Ryan and here is the WUSA from A Ryan to Travis
and his daughter her next executive producer,
and let me say something about pot money right quick. They're
giving me such a hard time. I don't think that's a viable
option but we do have xhale which will be rolling out. And I
will be getting a peel box in the near future. Oh good, good,
good. There'll be other ways but pop money. I don't know. They
kind of just admit they're making it hard. Yeah. Yeah, they
like blocked me or something. And I can't get anybody on the
phone to get on blocks. I don't know what's going on.
Brother. Okay. Interesting. If only I had a great idea on how
to fix that.
Then we have our next executive producer $100 from John Knowles.

All right, so we laid off. The last clip was the pro wrestling
storytelling. Yep. And I think this is one of the greatest
strengths that Donald Trump has is his storytelling ability. I
have to admit, one of my guilty pleasures was 2016. And I can't
wait today startup again, is to listen to Donald Trump's
rallies. Whenever he has a rally, I will come in, put my
headphones in and listen to it.
And laugh and just laugh
that you just bring me such great joy to me if you listen to
you. Is it
just the audio or do you do you have to see the video as well?
I always like to see the video because the
whole presentation.
Yeah, I'm hearing him is enough. But we've seen him is just it's
hilarious is he's a slash stand up comic slash wrestlers slash,
I mean, whatever you want to put there, and it's the perfect
heel. And it was even more pleasurable when you everybody
knows my disdain for Hillary Clinton and her policies. So
even to hear that it was like, why are you not getting my vote,
but I will show I'd like to show
you get some tangible shoes and we might can talk because you're
on the right path. But what's your I'm going to show who?
Exactly You got my attention with your show precisely.
And just to show how great storyteller isn't doesn't matter
the subject. He can make dishwashers and appliances sound
interesting.
I brought back the old light, better light for much less
money, if you want
somebody said, Oh sir, don't mention the light bulb. You
know, it's hard to make an elegant speech upset got brought
back the light bulb. So the new light bulb costs you five times
as much and it makes you look orange.
But I'm also approving new dishwashers that give you more
water so you can actually wash your dishes without having to do
it.
910
Anybody have a new dishwasher? I'm sorry for that. I'm sorry
for that. It's worthless. We won't talk about toilets. But
you know, that's it. 50 But we don't talk about that. Because
I've said this three or four times the only subject they ever
talk about is toilet. So I don't mention. But how about the
shower? You go into a shower, and I have this beautiful hair I
need a lot of is a show.
Light bulbs, dishwashers, showers ours?
orange hair, beautiful hair?
Orange lighting or light bulbs make you look if that's not gas
lighting, I don't know what is
syntes? I hadn't heard that one. That's really good.
So going back to the narcissism conversation we were having you
we pointed out depends on who he's talking to. If he displays
those traits of narcissism or not, and I think Dick Gregory
has an explanation why that may be the case. Vote a few weeks
first, to Trump's Okay, the one in the red ties the real one.
The one in the blue ties, not the one you saw last night after
the victory was the blue tie. Now if you would punch up Dr.
Carson, Ben Carson, when Trump called him a pedophile. And the
next day he joined Trump. And the guy asked him seven I mean,
you slipped and he said, Why did you do that? He says to true I
have with to get one just just pointing up when when somebody
interviewed and he said this to Donald Trump's, that's your
that's easy to pull up.
I was Googling Ben Carson pedophile.
I was Googling the wrong. So he called him that today before so
you've only got some morning if you go make him the next day.
See I join you, Dr. Ben Carson, there are two Donald Trump's.
So I had to go back and pull the clip of Trump calling or
comparing being cost Carson to a pedophile. Yes, thank you,
Carson's and an egg bomb. He wrote a book. And he's doing
great in Iowa. He's second in the polls, with all these
professional politicians. I'm first Carson second. And I don't
understand it. I really don't understand it. Because he wrote
a book. And in the book, he said terrible things about himself.
He said that he's pathological. And then he's got basically
pathological disease. If you're pathological, there's no cure
for that, folks. There's no cure for this. And I did one of the
shows today. And I don't want to say what I said, but I'll tell
you anyway, I said, if you're a child molester, sick puppy.
You're a child molester. There's no cure for that. There's only
one cure, we don't want to talk about that cure. That's the
ultimate, you know, there's two, there's death
and the other thing.
And here's the beauty of all he took a knife, and he went after
a friend and he learns, he learns that knife into the
stomach of his friends. But lo and behold, it hit the belt. It
hit the bell, and the knife bro.
I'd forgotten all about that story with the knife and the
belt buckle. Holy crap. We've been through so
much. And it wasn't 24 hours. Now I want to put Ben Carson on
the hook where he did. If somebody likens you to a
pedophile, you can't do business with him. I mean, it's just
gotta be certain rules. But just a rundown a couple of lists
before we get to Ben Carson's reply. Remember calling for your
Reno. Look at her face? Yeah. You had a little Marco. You had
a little mark on the bubble, bubble boy, which he wasn't
talking about, like a bubble. Well, he was talking about the
bubbles. Oh, yeah, Miami parties that
that he used to Damson. And
then Ted Cruz, we are talking about Ted Cruz and his dad
worked with Harvey Oswald. Yes. And all over who came back no
sooner than like a week and are no longer than a week and kiss
the ring
because they want to be they want it's better to be in the
show. Than Not at all?
Yes. It could be that or it could be something else. But
let's listen to Carson kiss the ring.
I think the Republican Party particularly would be very wise
not to adopt, let's stop this guy. And let's promote this guy
policy, but rather, start thinking about what are the
things that are going to be helpful for America. There are
two different Donald Trump's there's the one you see on the
stage. And there's the one who's very cerebral, sits there and
considers things very carefully. You can have a very good
conversation with him. And that's the Donald Trump that
you're going to start seeing more and more of right now.
I think there are two Donald Trump's is the public version.
And people see that and I don't know what they see exactly, but
it seems to have worked over my lifetime, but it's probably
different. I think then the personal Donald Trump, I think
Ben would say that Ben said it very well today. So perhaps
there are two Donald Trump's but well, I you know, I'm somebody
that is a thinker. I'm a big thinker.
Why are there to Donald Trump? Did you at some point make a
conscious decision to behave differently in public for
the good to Donald Trump? So I think there's one Donald Trump
but certainly you have, you know, look, all of this.
Somebody else reads and thinks, and I'm a thinker, and I have
been a thinker, big brain and perhaps people don't think of me
that way. Because you don't see me in that forum. But I am a
thinker. I thought it was very nice what Ben said actually
because it is another side that I'm They're very deep thinker.
Unbelievable.
winning four hours later.
Unbelievable. That is so cool.
And that goes to show you about why we were taking the
narcissism test. We have such varied answers because it's like
which Trump are you talking about? Oh, my rickshaw
driver Trump or public Trump?
Which nothing privately he's very low. Yeah, but publicly, he
puts off air like you crossed me. It's the worst thing you
could ever do. And even Omarosa alluded to that. Yeah. And her
clip about becoming the most powerful man in the universe.
She says, Yeah, wow. This explains a lot of things. But
I'm just trying to figure out what does he say to these
people? That make them being so easy? So we say there's two
Trump's right. And I don't know if you noticed or not, but Trump
saw is a Gemini.
Yes. Which means these two faced
face to face. What are those two faces? The laugh now cry later?
Yeah. Those are the symbols of the gesture.
Mo, you got to stop this now. Would you? Or would you have
done right, I'm just gonna say I'm just gonna take a break.
Everybody slow down. But Mo is doing is empowering. Every
single one of us. And I'm thankful personally, because I'm
tired. You know, I've since 2015. I've followed him, I've,
I've analyzed him. The Rona lock down period became very tough,
especially when he was doing a news conference every day. Tina,
the keeper, she eau de she's like, I can't, I can't handle
any more than narcissism. Once you see it in the context of the
red, the red tie, blue tie, and the context of the show. I think
it's much healthier. For for every once you understand your
stood Yeah, then then you can be at ease and maybe even, you
know, look ahead one step and understand what's going on. This
is great. Okay, so I'm sorry, I just wanted to interrupt you
there. So now we're back to the gestures 38.
So this is really built to this story is built around a jester.
Tell us why what what is the, for those who don't really know,
what is the role of the jester, in literature in you know, in
society throughout sort of, you know, history?
Well, the jester is a strange character that shows up in early
modernity literature of 16th and 17th century, the jester or the
trickster, and he's master of escape. And he's usually a
strange, half funny, and half dark, mean figure who plays
pranks, but then is also great at escaping, and who is also
very good at, well, things like conjuring or dancing, or in the
case of my jester, until Owens people dancing on a tight rope.
So he's a lot about escaping and surviving in very dark times.
And he's someone, I think that might be the most important
thing. You never know what he's going to do. He's kind of
there's always some aura of unpredictability around him, and
anything is possible where the gesture is.
nails it again.
And we talked about dancing. He talks about dancing on that
tightrope. Trump lives day to day is the 24 hour cycle, right?
Wait, yes, in the morning. Yeah. And I noticed this. This is why
I really know is like he's in control of this whole thing,
because he will wake up and this is during election time. I mean,
the election, Trump is a little bit different from Yeah,
governing Trump. So we're remote most of the time, because we're
about to get back into the election. Trump again here,
similar things kind of open up. But what he did is he would wake
up three, four o'clock in the morning, supposedly, or have
some I sent it out or scheduled tweet, and he will say some of
the most inflammatory statement. And by six o'clock news here
walked it back to something something reasonable.
So here's what I was gonna say. Here's a recent example. Shall I
move the election date, which was completely intended to get
the conversation about mailing voting started again? Yes, and
he totally manipulated that and everybody took the bait. He's
crazy. He's gonna push it back, and then they come then he to
Kayleigh McEnany his spokes whole says me By the way, very
irresponsible that was in Iran or some other country, that
they're talking about delaying their election very
irresponsible. That country is doing that. If you could see the
brain freeze happening, like wah, wah,
he always walks you into that trap. So if he has the answer,
or the rebuttal lined up, yeah, it's just and what and what did
he got saved from the wrestling. He said, When you have a story,
you start at the end. So he knows how it's gonna end. And he
works the story up to the beginning. So he's like, what
the birther because I know how it's going to end. I can blame
Hillary Clinton for putting this thing together. I'll kick it out
there. And I'll know how and and he works it back to the
beginning. And it's a beautiful formula that he uses. People
appreciate what they're
Yes, yes. And,
yes, here is another word for Joker's Well, I didn't want that
to be mixed up people. And Joker, Batman, Dark Knight, we
have all these other comparisons, that's when you saw
the movie Joker come out, people were thinking that was going to
be a owed to Trump. So there's something going on there with
Trump and the gestures and the and the Joker analogy and the
trick there.
So it might sound a little bit like cognitive dissonance then
because you talk about, you know, The Conjuring, the magic,
the jest, the jokes, etc. And yet, you set this historical
novel in one of the darkest periods in European history, the
30 year war in the 1600s. What brought you to put till this
gesture at the heart of this novel,
I really wanted to write about this time, this time of darkness
and chaos and the moment in European history when there was
a complete meltdown of all political structure of order of
civilization. And I wanted some kind of guiding character who
could lead the reader through this chaos that Europe was at
this moment. And society was very rigid. People didn't really
move, the people didn't travel. People also didn't move up or
down socially. So people from different social classes didn't
meet. But the jester can, of course, go anywhere, and also
would meet all kinds of people who would also meet kings or
peasants, or anyone in between, because he would perform in
front of them,
man.
Great. Well done, sir. Very well done. Well played.
Can I ask you a question, Adam? Sure. What's the highest card in
a deck of cards?
The ace
the Joker.
I thought it was the old made honestly. But okay.
The joker is the big Joker, little Joker, the ACC King.
You're right. And the reason why the Joker is the most powerful
because he can he can tell him the narrative. And he'll go
educate the commoners.
Wow. So it's interesting when the king is the Joker. Yeah.
Exactly. And he said one more thing I want to point out now in
a previous show, I think oh, no, no. SIBO Yeah, I'm talking about
the media working spells, conjuring spells what he said
about the gesture. He's very good at conjuring Condrey. He
understands the media like the back of his hand. That's his
real brilliance. He understands the media cycle. He understands
how people receive the media, and that he contracts his bills.
Fantastic. You're so right. You sound great.
And the biggest joker of them all is Loki from the Norse
mythology.
In the story, the master builder, owed in the most
powerful North God proposes a wall to keep out the chance and
the trolls. I suppose it made me laugh with the sort of
contemporary political reference to Donald Trump's wall. But also
is it a reminder that mankind has been building walls and
trying to keep the enemy out for centuries in myth as well as in
reality? I mean, how do you think history and mythology
helps us make sense of the great ructions going on in western
politics at the moment?
I mean, is absolutely fascinating that the way you
have this story in which Odin goes we need a giant wall around
Asgard to keep all the Giants out. And actually he winds up
getting a giant to build the wall and is determined to make
the Giants pay for it. So which may well be weird Donald Trump
got the idea.
Holy crap. Are you kidding me now? Are you kidding me now?
So hello Adam. Now let's go with let's go back to the very
beginning if we talked about the birther Obama Trump, so Trump is
Loki then Obama has to be Thor. What was Loki always saying
Touriga all the praise and that's what made Loki bitter.
What do we say about Trump and his relationship with his
father? He always was seeking the praise of God Yeah, I was
looking for the did we see something bigger play out here
and this whole I mean because these people on this level when
we get on that level will also world the stage
also Obama's Dreams from My Father so many different things
in this so many things in this is wrapped up. It's just the
same old darn stories told over again. This is
great over and over and over when will we ever learn
Mo Oh wait, we learned on episode 45 of Mo facts with Adam
curry.
So what we have to look into is more a deeper into who Loki was
and let's look into the myth of Loki.
willscot into a realm of wonders was where the Norse gods made
their home. Their opens Great Hall a vow towered above the
mountains and by frost the Rainbow Bridge anchored itself.
But though their domain was magnificent, it stood undefended
from the Giants and trolls of Yota Neymar, who despise the
gods and sought to destroy them. One day when Thor strongest of
the gods was off fighting these photos, a stranger appeared
riding a powerful grey horse. The visitor made the gods an
astonishing offer. He would build them the greatest wall
they'd ever seen higher than any giant could climb, and stronger
than any troll could break. All he asked in return was the
beautiful goddess throw his hand in marriage, along with the sun
and moon from the sky. The gods balked at this request, and
we're ready to send him away. But the Trickster Loki concocted
a devious plan. He told the gods they should accept the strangers
offer, but set such strict conditions that he would fail to
complete the wall in time. That way, they would lose nothing.
Well, getting most of the wall built for free.
will have 400 Miles done. We got to keep them going.
crap and he said that he will make them figure out how to pay
it
was gonna pay for it? Yes, of course. But it will.
He began his election. And that's how he built he began his
election remember coming out saying about Mexico.
All right, so So when does the snake story fit into all this?
You know his story?
Oh, the Oh, yeah. The Woman Yes.
With the snake that's got to be another part of this. This whole
dynamic?
It does. And that's like I said, that's another story for another
day because that goes to talk about what Herman Cain was
talking about the serpent energy. These people communicate
on a certain level that they understand each other. Because
just in my viewpoint, and this is just my viewpoint, and it may
be Theramin ready, but I think the fact that I think they all
are high level, witches and warlocks and they understand
that they understand the craft.
witches and warlocks
are manipulation. Well,
not only that, but you know, they're, they're really so they
really understand how to how to work this. It's kind of like,
it's another version of the Illuminati symbolism. Only it's
much simpler.
The Illuminati is just a different flavor. It's all
saying stacked up on top of each other. It's just the same story
repeated over and over and over and over again.
I'm enjoying it this time around. I can't wait until
someone tells me the story next time I really enjoy it.
So before we hit his last clip, which is the last clip now let's
keep in mind with what they said about the storytelling. They
said the heel nose and historic tell them the end first, and
then they build the story up to meet the ending right? Listen
how Loki handles the problem with the wall.
With only three days left until summer. The wall stood high and
impenetrable, with only the gates left to be built.
Horrified, the gods realized that not only Would they lose
their fertility goddess forever, but without the Sun and Moon,
the world would be plunged into eternal darkness. They wondered
why they'd made such a foolish wager, and then remembered Loki,
and his terrible advice. Suddenly, Loki didn't feel so
clever. All of his fellow Gods threatened him with an
unimaginably painful death if he didn't find some way to prevent
the builder from getting his payment. So Loki promised to
take care of the situation, and dashed away. Outside Knight had
fallen and the builder prepared to set off to retrieve the final
load of stones. But just as he called Spotify to a mayor
appeared in the field. She was so beautiful that Spotify
ignored his master and broke free of his reins. The mason
tried to catch him, but the mayor ran deep into the woods,
and Spotify it followed. The stranger was furious. He knew
that the gods were behind this and confronted them no longer as
a mild mannered Mason, but in his true form, as a terrifying
mountain giant. This was a big mistake, Thor had just returned
to Oh, Scout. And now that the gods knew a giant was in their
midst, they disregarded their oaths, the only payment the
builder would receive, and the last thing he would ever see was
the swing of Thor's mighty hammer, mule near.
All right, break it down for everybody.
So he, he knew from the very beginning, how to expose this
stranger that came in, agreed to build the wall right. Now, I'm
not saying wall literally in Trump's case, but he's been
doing all his deals with China. He knew that linchpin in the
pool to fully expose them. So I mean, it seems like always
chaotic. The world's coming to the end, but he's like, no, no,
no, no, no,
no, watch this. Hold my beer. What? Right?
I don't know how this is going to end before I even get
started. And it's going to end up being the Chinese flu that
came from a Chinese lab that was lab created. And he allowed it
to happen. Yeah. This is not gonna say that when he for say
40 chests. People like to throw that word around. And this dude
knows exactly what's going on and nothing by accident.
Oh, yeah. You have to say is Loki and the master builder.
That's it. That's all you got to say. And then you got to say, if
you don't understand how Trump relates to loci in the master
builder, you need to be doing the work my friend, I'm
surprised you you have not used your privilege to do the work
properly and become aware by going to mo facts.com
I'm shocked by your unawareness.
It's quite disgusting. Mo very enjoyable episode. This will
this will help a lot of people with their mental state when
they just can't stand it anymore. They'll think back to
this episode, maybe even listen to it again for a refresher. And
it's almost like the Disneyland when you're on the ride and
starts to spin in the tunnel and you like oh if they always say
if if it's spinning if you don't feel good, just look at the
ground and all goes away. That's basically what this episode was.
Just just listen to this. All the spin and we'll stop that's
fine and I personally really appreciate this one.
And the looking at the ground here is as I always say, pay
attention to everything and the truth revealed itself.
