It's like you won the lottery, but only because he stole the winning ticket from a seven eleven cashier now learn at all. Tell me more about the Trump won. The election even though he got almost three million fewer votes than Hillary Clinton, and he got understand. Donald Trump has a fragile ego at his comedy central roasting, two thousand eleven he told the comedians were roasting him. There was one thing they couldn't make fun of. You know what that was his enormous ass. His wealth he's got thin skinned, especially when it comes to having less than others. So, rather than admit he won fewer votes than Hillary Clinton. Trumpeted would came natural to him. He live, are you told members

The president repeated during his first official Whitehouse meeting with congressional leaders telling them he lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton only because millions of illegal ballots were cast this same claim he made on twitter.

If you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally to stunning, Ray it's kind of like saying I wanted scrabble, but only because I kicked my opponent in the crotch. I can do the rest of the story. Myself feel just one take off our great M m. Go my grave darker. Every lie start somewhere in this american lie was born in one of the birthplace of american democracy:
Long island massachusetts- number I like them at the state flower- is dumping done its confidence in the state. Songs in Irish, nigh keeping outside of baseball stadium in now This scene has another claim to fame a professor whose work inadvertently ignited the voter fraud controversy fry in chapter, one of the academics behind the study told. CNN trumpets misinterpreting the study, calling trumps claims absurd and not even plausible
Brian chapter. This is brain schaffner for political fire, protection of earthly he's a professor of liberalising the taxi drivers, wire european everything. I say: Chapman Smart Guy, even if he doesn't know her password our principal investigator, for the cooperative congratulate for studying, which are the dataset that have caused all these problems. Every election year. Schaffner scoop surveys, internet users, about their political views, survey, doesn't specifically ask about voter fraud, and yet the question included the fervid, if not really meant to pronounce the defence, but others by about for their response, can select that what I did a five persons and as such, we let the controversy there are over. Thirty thousand responded to the sector
to designate had among that growth there a little over three hundred who identify themselves on fishing for their responded to the server thirty eight of those suppose it knows from claimed overdid. So we ve got this internet survey taken in two thousand now flash murmured front teeth ass, a man that centre Barack Obama of Illinois will be the next president of the union, states. He'd have been to two thousand fourteen year old, Jura, remakes, also known as the hot Phelan, because exact Windows dataset evolves from a curiosity to a flaming political hot potato. This episode of these american lives is brought to buy worthy snarked. Do you find it difficult to come up with the perfect quip, when your bantering, with your friends, try worthy snark? we send you for snappy witticisms that you can try out at home, only keep the ones you fine, clever and incisive

If you listening with your children, you better turn off unless you want those kids to grow up fast. Just ignore him. Ok! So it's two thousand fourteen Jesse rich men, a researcher at all dominion, university or o D. You comes across the survey. Richmond takes the response to that final
I shall not being a citizen and extrapolate that anywhere between thirty eight thousand and two point. Eight million non citizens voted in two thousand eight there's only one problem with Jesse Richmond conclusion justly Richmond has been dead for fifty years now. Here's Brian Schaffner revisiting his two thousand each survey. That became the basis for Richmond Work study where we actually recognised that the people who claim to be not a lot of them when we have the same pushed again changed their answer, that among the people who actually claim to be not for both times, we have none of them were none of them. Brain Schaffner had renounced his own findings, but by this time it's too late right wing media members are using the odious surveyed claim that boat or fraud is an enormous problem, even though its based on one studies, interpretation of it.
large data set. So I guess desi. Just one question remains right: how did this lie? Get to tramp? Oh, I was going to ask. Is fifteen minutes in the microwave too long for a single taco, but that's good to hear your questions get on so it turns out Trump may have been turned on to vote or fraud and his natural habitat. a golf course, five days after trumps inauguration, he hosted dinner for Republicans and Democrats. He tells his guest that he one the popular vote. If it hadn't been for the three to five million illegal boats, according to the New York Times, a democratic, the dinner ass trot where you getting this information and tromp sites, a guy named Bernard longer, I loved him.
DAS Boot Bernard longer, as a german professional golfer, he won the masters of nineteen. I really know sixty years old, so apparently trumpet golfing with longer sometime between election day. Twenty sixteen and this dinner on January, twenty third, two thousand seventeen in on the golf course longer told Trump about his experience on election day in Florida, longer went to vote and was told that he was an eligible to because he's been dead for fifty years. The cause he's german and not a u S, citizen but longer looked at other voters in line who he said, does if they should not be allowed to vote because they ve been dead for fifty, no one. You ve been dead for fifty years, no one Boris Karlov has been dead for fifty years. He died February. Second, nineteen sixty nine complications from pneumonia, Bores Karlov has been dead for fifteen trump. Scottish
idea in his head from longer. People are illegally voting because this german golfer told him so and he's upset the hidden when more votes than Hilary. So, instead of investigating this claim, instead of checking with any election officials, he just starts saying public millions of illegal votes data something that is extremely fundamental to our functioning democracy. A fair and free election. You say: renal launch, an investigation is done well, you have presented so far has been debunked. gold results. I take a look at the pure report. I call the author of the few report last night and he told me that They found no evidence reload and run it erodes the reward. He said no evidence of a right, then why did you read the report? I got into very for the news that Pew report he was mentioning he was probably confusing it with a study from old dominion which leap Frog off the survey from brain Schaffner, which remember has been debunked, which remember, doesn't really matter, because now this
I has been super charge, It continues to make this assertion that there were somewhere between three and five million voters that vote illegally in the last election and he's gotta spokespeople lying citing the server I as I said, I think the president is believed that for a while, based on studies, information he has for that, you need a lot of the nominee lies about voting about wiretapping is repeated, lies above those it He does, I think, he's lying about those issues and you know it and of course, as friends at box news were people. I back to hear President tromp continues to claim that anywhere from fleet of five million immigrants across the country loaded costing them but well. A lot of people think and remember about the presence comment about three to five million votes illegal in this country.
All this because of something that happened on the internet in two thousand. Eight. That's like a scandal breaking today, because the President thought Chuck Norris backed was real Does he I just want to break in here and Warner listeners. The next section of the podcast contains several slurs about the irish and audio taken from a hard core pornographic film from Japan. What script are you reading from anyway? Donald Trump doesn't just like this like out o now in May two thousand. contain he. Does this Donald Trump just sign of executive order, creating a commission election integrity to investigate alleged voter fraud by present my hands in Kansas Secretaries Day Chris Cobalt, wheel, chair it? That's right! This lie created jobs. Real people kiss their kids goodbye in the morning and went to work in service of this life. That's crazy, though people are kissing, their kids sit. It turns out. This commission was a mistake because after a year of work, the commission too spans they couldn't find any
evidence of widespread voter fraud. He formed a commission to investigate his lie. That's like lying to your friend Matthew Way in insisting on stepping onto a scale actually that oh yeah. Now, that is a good metaphor, and then you step off the scale. Kick the guy in the crotch steals Wall nope, you lost it again. Trumps Department of Justice was also investigating and was able to mine, just nineteen illegal voters in North Carolina, so three to five million elite. oh boats in the twenty sixteen election. That's just a lie: a lie with humble beginnings that worked its way from an internet survey to Virginia University, to a right wing website to a german golfer to the President of the United States.
