Lefties Losing It: Robert De Niro can't cope living in Trump's America

But it's time for Lefties Losing It. And the man nobody asked for. Remember when he said Donald Trump would come after him if he was re-elected?

If he wins the election, you won't be on the show anymore. He'll come looking for me. There'll be things that happen that none of us can imagine. That's what happens in that kind

of a dictatorship. Well Donald Trump was re-elected, it can be Robert and it was and somehow incredibly Robert De Niro. It's about right and wrong period. The guy's a monster, it's beyond wrong. Yes all the horrible things Donald Trump is inflicting on America like bringing back Manifat, Wanda and the Congo and several others just in recent months. But while Robert De Niro rants like a demented fool, here is another perspective from the

acting world. This is Hollywood superstar Chris Pratt. See if you can detect the subtle difference between the deranged De Niro and what Chris has to say.

I'd hate to be so mired in hatred for the president that any success from his administration is something I'd have an allergic reaction to. To be like, oh, well, if they do it, I don't want it to happen. I'll feed my, I'll put Clorox in my children's cereal myself. You know, say, come on come on have some be reasonable here There's certain things that would be a good thing to have I want them all to be successful now

Let's marvel at Charlie Kirk embarrassing Oxford students during a debate about whether Donald Trump has gone too far I could play you a whole program of this sort of content, but this next 25 second clip sums it all up.

Trump has deported American citizens to camps without fair trial, but the opposition will still tell you he has not gone too far.

I'll give you a thousand pounds right now if you could tell me the US citizen that was deported under Donald Trump. Yeah, the US citizen that was deported under Donald Trump. Can anyone tell me? A thousand pounds, I'll give it to you right now. Yeah, name? Wrong, not a US citizen. A citizen of El Salvador. Anyone else? US citizen, deported under Trump.

Nope, that was a lie. You should know better than that. You go to Oxford.

Perhaps Oxford can welcome this next academic who is fleeing America to do her science, as she calls it, in a better country. I'm an associate professor at the University of California Institution.

And I'm starting TikTok because I'm gonna leave the United States with my family to start a life and do my science and study climate change

and sustainable seafood.

To DC now, and here is a masterclass in how to handle lefties losing it. You point at them, you explain why their position is absurd and then you laugh. Let's see Vice President J.D. Vance and Defence Secretary Pete Hegzett demonstrate that perfectly. This is the guy who thinks people don't deserve law and order in their own community. Superb work. That guy thinks people don't deserve law and order in DC.

And you know who else thinks that? It's the media. And here, JD Vance treats a stupid question from the media with the disdain it deserves.

Polls show that a majority of DC residents don't support the guard here

so what's your message to the majority of DC residents? I'm highly skeptical that a majority of DC residents don't want their city to be to have better public safety and more reasonable safety standards within Washington DC. I don't know what poll you're talking about, maybe the same polls that set Kamala Harris

from the popular vote by 10 points.

And White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller had a word of advice for, and I quote, the stupid white hippies who are demonstrating against the law and order crackdown in DC.

All these demonstrators that you've seen out here in recent days, all of these elderly white hippies, they're not part of the city and never have been. And by the way, most of the citizens who live in Washington DC are black. This is not a city that has had any safety for its black citizens for generations. And President Trump is the one who is fixing that with the support of the Metropolitan Police Department,

the support of the National Guard, and our federal law enforcement officers. So we're gonna ignore these stupid white hippies that all need to go home and take a nap because they're all over 90 years old, and we're gonna get back to the business

of protecting the American people

and the citizens of Washington DC.

Joining me now is President of the Center of the American Experiment John Heiderecker. John we will get to the peace talks shortly, but let's start with the Democrats and they are in crisis mode with data showing the party is bleeding support. The New York Times reports that in the 30 states that track voter registration by political party, Democrats lost ground to Republicans in every single one between 2020 and 2024 and in some states by quite a lot the four-year swing towards the Republicans adds up to 4.5 million voters. John that

is grim for the Democrats with the Times also reporting that the party saw some of its steepest declines in registrations among young voters and Donald Trump has been instrumental in that. Rita the Democrats

really are panicking in part because that report comes from their newspaper the New York Times and as you, 30 out of 30 states, it's a nationwide trend, and it's strongest among young people and also among minorities. And that's a key point too,

because the Democrats' strategy has been to build a permanent winning coalition that's based primarily on minority voters. That strategy right now is not looking good at all. And so yeah, the Democrats really are in a panic.

John, the New York Times analysis also shows that this trend is not new. It's been evident for months, for years. In fact, in 2018, Democrats accounted for 34% of new voter registrations nationwide. Republicans were only 20%, but by 2024, Republicans were overtaking the Democrats among new registrants.

Can the Republicans maintain this momentum beyond Donald Trump?

I think so, Rita. Donald Trump is really the candidate of common sense. And I think there are others who can pick up that mantle and carry it effectively. The Democrats' problem isn't so

much Donald Trump as it is the fact that they've gone crazy on the issues. They're pro-crime. They have this whole trans thing going on.

Absolutely no restraint when it comes to spending. And so it seems to me that even after Donald Trump is gone, in order to come back, the Democrats are going to have to become a more mainstream party on the issues.

Well talking about going crazy, let's hear from MSNBC pundit Molly Fast If the Democrats listen to this advice John then they deserve what's coming

Why are Democrats not? Why are the polls bad? Why are they not breaking through and I think it's a couple things I think one is the people who are breaking through are brave, right? They talk like humans, they make the case. Chris Murphy, Sherrod Brown, Mondami, these people, AOC, they're not all exactly the same politically but they are the same in the fact that they're brave and they break through.

I'd argue they are all the same politically. John, there you go, you got Mamdani and AOC. Are they the solution to the Democrats' problems?

Yes, Rita, they're the same. They're socialists. We've got one here in Minneapolis, where I live. There's a guy named Omar Fatteh, who's an avowed socialist, who's running and is now the favorite

to become the mayor of Minneapolis. And I don't even understand the idea of being a socialist. I mean, America is not going to become a socialist country and New York is not going to become a socialist city. You know, this is a kind of a luxury that certain voters who are limited to blue urban areas can indulge.

But outside of that handful of blue urban areas, there is no support for this kind of far leftism.

John, we should have given a trigger warning before this discussion, because I think Democrats are gonna be pretty disturbed by what they're gonna hear next.

Breaking tonight, Texas Republican legislators have just won their fight over redistricting. Just moments ago, the state house vote is now final. The bill aims to provide five additional congressional seats for the GOP.

John, how significant is this redistricting and are the states looking at doing the same

thing?

Well, Rita, of course, what's going on here is that the Democrats have been gerrymandering for decades. And now that the Republicans are trying to catch up, they're all up in arms about it. But democratic states like California, Illinois and Massachusetts and Maryland and others are already heavily gerrymandered.

Texas isn't gerrymandered at all. And so it's going to be very difficult for the Democrats to respond effectively to this because they've already rung about as many seats as they can out of the states that they

control.

That is exactly true and the absolute meltdown over the Republicans starting to do what they've been doing for years has been very amusing to observe. Now let's discuss the extraordinary talks of the past week starting with the Alaskan summit between President Trump and Vladimir Putin that saw European leaders fly to the White House within 48 hours and in the hopes that a lasting peace agreement could be

struck between Russia and Ukraine. But VP JD Vance has made it clear that it is Europe that must carry the burden that cannot continue to rely on the US to play the leading role.

Well I don't think we should carry the burden here. I think that we continue to rely on the US to play the leading role?

Well, I don't think we should carry the burden here. I think that we should be helpful if it's necessary to stop the war and to stop the killing. But I think that we should expect, and the president certainly expects Europe to play the leading role here. But no matter what happens, no matter what form this takes,

the Europeans are going to have to take the lion's share of the burden.

John, is Europe up to the task?

Not yet, Rita. To be fair, they've made significant strides, really, since the first Trump administration. He's been leaning on them to improve their defense capabilities, and they have made some pretty serious efforts in that direction. But I think the more significant point as far as Ukraine is concerned is no, the Europeans are not yet ready to really take on that burden, but the United States is participating

in the security guarantees that are being given to Ukraine. We are not going to have soldiers on the ground, but I believe that the agreement is going to provide that the US will provide air cover to protect Ukraine and Rita no one wants to mess with the United States Air Force.

No, absolutely not. What do you think about the plan to bring Putin and Zelensky together? Donald Trump has said he wants them to have a face-to-face meeting to hash this out. Do you see that as feasible? Well it's really up to them

Rita but I think it should be feasible. They are the ones that have to solve this problem. They are the ones, they hate it, they both hate you know having to make a peace agreement but they've got to do it. They're the only ones who can do it and I think Trump is right to say that the time has come for these two guys to sit down face to face and hammer out an agreement that neither of them is going to like but that both of them can live with. John let's hear from Keir Starmer

now who bizarrely claims that there is not a family in the UK that has not been personally impacted by the Russian-Ukrainian war.

The war in Ukraine has had a huge impact particularly on the Ukrainians who bore the brunt of it but it's also had an impact on Europe and on the United Kingdom. There's not a family or community that hasn't been affected.

John, these European leaders have had three and a half years to do something about ending this war. It looks like the Trump administration will have to play a leading role in securing lasting peace.

Well, Rita, we need to have a lasting US presence. You know who else had three and a half years to address this problem? Joe Biden did, and of course he didn't have-

Well, of course, yeah.

Nothing.

And nobody thinks that people like Starmer and Macron are really going to be able to contribute a great deal here. You know, at that session they had at the White House a few days ago with all of the European leaders present, the president of Finland said, we've made more progress in the last two weeks

than we'd made in the preceding three and a half years. And Georgia Maloney, who I like a lot, said, yeah, something has changed. Well, I think we all know what the something is. The something is Joe Biden is off in a rest home somewhere and Donald Trump is in the White House.

And I'm hopeful, Rita. It's up to the parties. It's up to Ukraine and Russia. They're the ones that have to make the deal. But I'm hopeful that we are finally going to see peace in Ukraine.

I'm hopeful too. I'm hopeful too. John Hinderaker, thank you so much for your time tonight.
