This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Chris, are you willing to tell Chris? Are you willing to tell the american people tonight whether or not you will support either ending the filibuster or packing the court? Whatever position I take on that that will become the issue. The issue is the american people should speak. You should go out and vote. Make sure you in fact let people know he doesnt want to answer the question im not going to answer the question. Why wouldnt you answer that question because the question is the question: is justice radical left you shut up, man, listen! Who is on your list, Joe Ainsley lets bring in Arkansas GOP member Tom Cotton Good Morning to you good morning, Ainsley Ainsley good morning to you. What was your reaction to that? He would not answer the question. Well, Joe Biden. Obviously, doesnt want to answer the question whether he will pack the court, because his far left flank wants to pack the court. A packed court means that you will lose your right to religious freedom means they will take away your second amendment rights. They will force you to use your taxes to pay for abortion on demand up to the ninth month, maybe even yawkd. They will take your home and
give it to giant corporations to use for a parking lot at their office, complex thats. What Joe Biden is dodging it wouldnt become the issue. If he would have said no, I dont want to pack the court. It would put the issue to rest. The reason he doesnt want to put the issue to rest by simply saying no, I dont want to pack. The court is because the Democrats have become so radical that they are willing to take unprecedented steps to fundamentally restructure the nature of our government to achieve their far left agenda. Brian yeah- and you know what senator you knocked: the moderate Joe who is going to bring a semblance of law and order to the White House and a sense of discipline if you are going to pack the court that makes you radical and he just refused to answer that question. Also its important. Not only did he break decorum by saying, will you shut up? They are making t shirts. That say, shut up man is that the person that is supposedly claim to bring class and continuity back to the White House here is Kamala Harris. On the same question about Joe Biden packing the court. Listen
his answer on court packing, adding more justices to the court. Just sounds like a straight up dodge. Why wont he talk about what he wants to do, what he thinks should happen? Well, I think he is very clear, John, which is that he is focused as we all should be on the next thirty five days and he is focused on one. The process by which we are even having the conversation about the United States Supreme Court, Brian right. She didnt answer either think we all realized that senator have you picked that up yeah thats the kind of clear and crisp answer that Kamala Harris zero delegates and dropping out before the Iowa caucuses. Despite the tens of millions of dollars, the party bosses of the Democratic Party gave to her look. It makes no sense what theyre saying they claim if they answer that question, it will be the central issue of the campaign for the next five weeks, not if they say no, if they simply say no. Chris, no John, we dont want to pack the court. Of course not. We are going to keep the court
of the same size, its been for one hundred and fifty years. It puts the issue to rest. The reason why they dont want to answer it is clearly is in their hearts and they know on their left wing flank. The answer is yes, they do want to pack the court because they want to fundamentally restructure the nature of american government and that that would be extremely unpopular and probably cost them the election. The american people should keep that in mind when they go to vote Steve, but at the same time they dont want to alienate the left flank that thinks court pack something a good idea. Meanwhile, they did clash as well on the topic of violence in american streets, the president said its a left wing problem and Joe had this observation about Antifa watch. Somebody has got to do something about Antifa and the left, because this is not a right wing. Its own FBI. Director said this is a left wing problem. White supremacist Antifa is an idea, not an organization. Oh, you have got to be kidding,
not a militia thats. What his FBI director said, Steve Senator is Antifa just an idea. Yeah hardly Antifa is a radical decentralized network of anarchists and insurrectionists those bricks that you see in the streets, chunks of concrete they dont get there by themselves. Brian, they are on Pallets, Steve theyre, not ideas. Joe Biden refuses to condemn them, Joe Biden. Wouldnt say I support law enforcement. I support the men and women who help keep us safe, who put their lives on the line. This help protect innocent citizens from radical, insurrectionists and anarchists in the street. Again, because is he afraid of alienating far left flank earlier in the debate he said Louis Xivth, the son king. I am the Democratic Party, then, when asked why he couldnt call the mayor of Portland to stop the violence im. Just a
retired politician, not my place, goes to show you how far Joe Biden will go to avoid condemning Antifa and these other radical insurrectionists in our streets. Preview of what will happen the next four years. Should he win this election, Brian Senator? How did the president do? Last night, I thought the president did well in pointing out how Joe Biden has become beholden to radical left flank, whether weather its the green new deal one hand he didnt, support it and slash or the other hand it would pay for itself or start taking health insurance away from people on the job and encroaching on government run healthcare. Of course, talking about pointing out the radical steps, the Democrats would take to fundamentally alter the nature of american Government Tone ACT, their left wing agenda through the courts, not through the ballot box. On all those points, I think the president did well.
