| 0:00.0 | You may be the first president in history to go down because you can't stop |
| 0:05.4 | inappropriately talking about an investigation. I can definitively say the |
| 0:09.4 | presence by the liar. I think it's frankly insulting that that question would be |
| 0:13.6 | asked. Up to now we have no profiles in courage among the Republicans. |
| 0:18.1 | Somebody really speaking out saying Trump is bad to the country. |
| 0:24.0 | Hello and welcome to Trumpcast. The show about the man who doesn't think his |
| 0:29.4 | lawyer will flip and tell the truth to the authorities. Don Trump. I'm Jacob |

| 1:21.4 | then if that weren't enough bracing honesty for one speech, Mulvaney went on to |
| 1:26.3 | tell the truth about his efforts to undermine the government agency he's |
| 1:29.7 | supposed to be running, the CFPB. And this was my favorite part. Quote, I'm trying |
| 1:35.2 | to get in the habit of now saying the BCFP, he said, it's really, really hard to |
