| 0:00.0 | On this episode of Neutral, I want to take a totally different approach to what's happening |
| 0:10.1 | with President Donald Trump. |
| 0:12.3 | I want to put Trump in the context of what's happening in America, because I think in many |
| 0:16.9 | ways he's actually a symbol rather than a cause. |
| 0:20.7 | And I would argue that this is about the totalitarian instinct on the left, that if you don't |
| 0:25.9 | absolutely give them total control, they have to destroy. |
| 0:29.9 | Now, that may seem like a strong thing to say, but I think by the end of this conversation, |
| 0:35.3 | you'll realize how I've come to this conclusion. |
| 0:37.5 | It's sort of perfectly captured by Speaker Nancy Pelosi's recent comment that, of course, |

| 1:23.3 | Under that model, the Pelosi argues, all of us are guilty unless we can prove our innocence, |
| 1:29.2 | but that's exactly backwards, because in fact, we're all innocent unless we're proven guilty. |
| 1:34.4 | So let's start with how they literally reverse the American system and turn it on its head |
| 1:40.4 | for their purposes. |
| 1:42.2 | And I think this is why you have to see Trump not as an isolated example, despite every |
| 1:47.4 | effort of the elite news media, but rather as a symptom of a much larger pattern of persecution, |
| 1:55.7 | corrupt implementation of justice, fundamentally dishonest law enforcement, and a whole approach |
| 2:02.0 | that to me is amazing. |
