We are used to bashing Germans for allowing Hitler and Nazism to come into power. And here we are.

[wmnokzs]

This just can't happen! Vote Democrat in 2024! Biden isn't perfect, but he's a good man!

[garyovermyer]

"I'm hopeful because, during the insurrection, there were good people who stood up and did the right thing." Hmm, as i recall, there were good Germans in Germany in the 1930's too...

"He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him."

― C.G. Jung, on Hitler and the Shadow

Let's be clear here, I'm sorry JK, with all due respect don't be the apologist for 45. He means exactly what he says. If he did not, then he would have done something about J6 when told there is serious danger for people to get hurt. He did nothing.

[sandradfr]

I don't think he means violent (sic)?? Of course he did - and he does

[catalinacurio]

Vote so that the ground shakes all the way to the voting booths America and don’t vote alone, take friends and family, make it a celebration! 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙💙💙💙

I have already added his new book to my list. I need to get through a couple of other books, one of which is Rachel Maddow's "Prequel." But I respect Jonathan Karl. I loved his other book, "Betrayal: The Final Act of the Trump Show." So this one is a definite must read. And the fact that he is still optimistic makes me feel hopeful that there are enough sane, rational, voters to prevent the "Return of the Trump Show: The End of Democracy in America."

[Crissy_the_wonder]

If people are concerned about a Trump MAGA extremist (miss)administration in 2024, we need to be politically active, talking to people, and NOW! Voting is vital but not enough by itself

[trillium..]

The fact that the former president influenced who became the Speaker of the House is alarming. I'm hopeful that good people will continue to do the right thing.

[patriciabagby]

Why are so many downgrading Biden? Because of his age? He is a GREAT President!

[NewMessage]

True enough... there's a few good eggs out there yet. Some hope is better than none.

[Daneki]

His final note of "good people stood up and did the right thing" would mean more if it wasnt preceded by him (in the first segment) talking about how all the people who stood up and did the right thing around J6 got purged out of the republican party.

[BryanbFLYin]

We cannot let this orange dude become president again.

[karenvans]

Trump knows exactly what he's doing. And he tells right to our faces . Wakeup and smell the coffee 😊

[palehorse]

To the honored guest, and with respect: No, I’m afraid you still don’t understand. He does know and he DOES MEAN for people to do violence on his behalf. That way he isn’t ‘responsible’. Because no one called him out on this same type of rhetoric to any extent BEFORE he ‘won’ the election in 2016. You all give him such an out, like “oh, he’s really just too dumb to realize his words lead to violent actions by his supporters on his behalf.” ARE YOU JOKING?! OF COURSE HE KNOWS!

[mandydavidson]

Stephen, please bring back JK and let him speak more.

[AnthonyMoss-pmvc]

Would you put him (T rump) in charge of your local church fundraiser, or leave him (T rump) alone with your wife or daughter...

[tytn]

Once again, I think of the adage that "for evil to triumph, it only requires that good people do nothing"! So long as Good People stand up against those who would destroy their democratic rights and freedoms, evil will be defeated. The recent State elections suggest that there ARE Good People, and thus that there is still hope!
