Transcripts
but I watched CNN today and they had the
presidential debate the US presidential
debate and maybe some of you saw it and
if you did well it was amazing it was
amazing on every level but what was
especially amazing was afterward they
went to the panel of assembled
Democratic operatives posing as
journalists and all of them were like
shocked to discover that Joe Biden has
dementia like they couldn't believe it
what oh my gosh he's n-compass Menace no
way are you serious
and I'm thinking to myself what year is
it
2024 is middle-aged people identify with
that okay 2024 people are saying it was
2019 that I heard from a friend of mine
who was friends with his sister Val um
that the family was very upset because
Joe has dementia and he's running for
president and well I said this on TV by
the way at the time and was denounced as
a racist or something I mean everything
in the United States like that's just
like the allpurpose term for shut up um
racist he like I think he's white shut
up racist okay anyway
[Laughter]
um but uh but she his sister had told a
friend of mine like an actual friend of
mine one of my neighbors um that the
family was upset and that his son sadly
had passed away by the way not in a rock
fighting a war for freedom but of cancer
um I don't think he's aware of that uh
but sad and that that the family was
convinced he needed to kind of get it
out of his system by running for
president but of course no one's going
to like make Joe Biden the nominee
because we had Pete Buddha judge for
that um who's now it's a joke but at the
time they were like people are going to
love Pete Buddha judge he's incompetent
but he's gay
great and then people are like what no
so they had to uh go to Joe Biden and he
actually became the nominee and then
somehow became the president and but it
was obvious the whole time that he had
no idea where he was and that it was
cruel and that his grasping horrible
wife who like poses as a doctor was
pushing this so she could go to state
dinners and everyone knew this like
there's not one person who didn't know
this and when you travel outside our
borders you know people are always so
nice about other people's countries like
they don't attack you to your face and
obviously I'm the most American person
who's ever lived and I love my country
and I'm going to die there and would die
for it without even thinking that's how
much and I mean that so everyone wants
to be polite to you about your country
and when like if I ever went to New
Zealand I wouldn't mention Jacinda adern
or you know what I mean that would be
rude I wouldn't say like oh that
girl with the teeth is she here
you know I wouldn't that would
be no I
wouldn't
because that's not something a guest
says right you're in someone else's you
know you're having dinner at someone's
house like the food is appalling it's so
good you know what I mean but even given
the high standards of politeness offered
to foreigners in foreign lands
everywhere I've traveled around the
world for the past four years and there
been a lot of countries people are like
um so Joe Biden um how is
he like well I think he has dementia he
certainly
does like everybody knows everybody
knows because they have I can't remember
the
internet and it has video on it and it
takes about 15 seconds to determine the
leader of the most powerful country in
the world with this Mass nuclear Arsenal
involved in two simult anous Wars
doesn't know what day it is and that's
really scary but if you come to the
United States and you're in the media
envelope this like fake worlds created
by this disinformation Specialists who
run our media that's never mentioned at
all it's like everyone pretend be it
would literally be like everyone
pretending jinda adern is like a
legitimate
person which they may have done in New
Zealand I wasn't
there you know what I mean when people
say oh that's the Prime Minister what
it's ridiculous ous
actually but everyone sort of plays
along like it's not happening and this
isn't this the whole emperor's new close
story is based on this phenomenon which
a very human phenomenon but for the
media today to be like wow we just got
the diagnosis this is shocking he can't
run for
president kind of either they're really
stupid like too stupid to breathe uned
or they're Liars they're truly dishonest
they're hiding the obvious from
you and I'm betting on the latter but
even more amazing was the response to
that so remember that our media are not
just observers of reality or describers
of reality people who bring you the
story first on the scene no they're
they're the gate Gatekeepers to reality
you don't know what the world looks like
except through them like they are the
pipeline through which all information
flows
and in the United States they're
political actors they work for a
political party in effect if not
officially like they all work for the
Democratic party and the Democratic
party and I think this is probably true
here has one Mission this season which
is to save democracy which is Gravely in
Peril you may have heard by Vladimir
Putin who was ending our democracy
somehow
and don't
laugh what are you you you Putin
lovers anyway yeah okay that's fine I
don't care it's not my president you can
love anyone you want as far as I'm
concerned because I believe in uh you
know the autonomy of man you can have
your own opinions but the point is in my
country and probably here the
self-described mission of everyone in
the media is to save democracy and
democracy simply defined is the pro the
idea that the people own their country
you know it's their country and they
hire people people to represent them but
fundamentally they are shareholders in
this Enterprise they're owners they're
not surfs they're not renting it this
isn't a rental car it's your car you
change the oil in it because it belongs
to you right and that's what citizenship
is and so in a democracy you know you
don't have to do everything the majority
wants every moment but over time if what
you're doing Bears no relationship to
what the majority wants then you know
for a fact it's not
democracy and you know you can try to
convince people of things you can say
well you know you want this but I think
you should want that and here's why but
you can't ignore them or else it's not a
democracy it's an oligarchy and you see
yourself as the owner and they're the
the tenants the Surfs the
renters and you can just do whatever you
want it doesn't matter what they think
so that's the most anti-democratic
attitude possible right that attitude is
the enemy of democracy and all of a
sudden today these Defenders of
democracy are like well I mean obviously
Joe Biden's got Alzheimer
and he's super unpopular he can't win
therefore we need to replace
him and it's like wait a second he was
already
elected in the biggest Landslide ever I
don't know if you knew that like he got
over a billion votes you know in our
country he got more votes than Black
Jesus and because he's just so
unbelievably popular people just love
Joe Biden it was a landslide literally a
landslide in 20120 and that gives him
the authority to do whatever he wants
whether you like it or not because so
many of your neighbors voted for him you
don't know their names but it happened
okay it happened it's sort of like covid
deaths you never actually met anybody
who died of it but Millions did
die everybody voted for Joe Biden except
you so shut up so he has this mandate
this moral mandate to do literally
whatever he wants import 30 million
people illegally and you're not allowed
to say anything about it
racist and yet at the same time and then
Democratic primary voters just just like
the other day in our system the members
of the party vote for their nominee he's
elected by his own party people actually
went to the polls cast a ballot for him
but all of a sudden because he might not
win against the orange man we need to
take his job away from him by force and
let the donors put someone in there who
can beat the orange man cuz that's
democracy and that made me start to
think for the first time maybe we're
defining the word democracy a little
differently maybe you've got a different
understanding of what that means maybe
you think democracy is when we do
exactly what you and eight of your
friends
want that's what you think it is whereas
I think democracy is when you do the
will of the majority over
[Applause]
