president trump say that in 2016 i think about the 25th amendment. i raise this many times before. i think he s emotionally troubled. and there is the possibility and it s been raised before, that if he were to be in this particular position, and for some reason god help us all, becomes president again, that we would have to invoke the 25th amendment. there are too many mental issues here telling us that this man should not be in office. but i would have to also say there s nothing that states that he can t run. and there s nothing that states that someone who s indicted cannot run for office. and if it bogs down on democracy, i travel internationally and ask people outside the country. what do you think what s do you think is happening in this country? we ve lost so much credibility around the world because of donald trump. many issues.
countries in the world where there is a vote, but the opposition leader cannot run. yes. and is a very long, a long history of that. and today you have what s called elect tour autocracy, meaning you don t shut down elections but you gain the field. or you take over offending media outlets, opposition media blitz, so the opposition s message cannot even reach people. and that happened in hungary before the 2022 elections. so you have the veneer of democracy, but critics, and other political forces other than yours no longer have any impact, and that is the deal, used to look as though you can say oh, orban calls it illiberal democracy. but there s nothing democratic about it. coming up, how the republican party in the current congress is helping to pave the way for donald trump to take back power, and you get his revenge on his critics. i worry that this particular committee to study committee to
somebody. without doing the things that look like you took democracy away? that s right, that s right. they use what s called lawfare, where you weaponize the judiciary in order to be able to have nuisance suits, lawsuits that financially, and psychologically exhaust people. and we have seen this in our country as well, where trump who always has uses model of harassing people, he has been involved in thousands of lawsuits. this is very common in other countries where you tie somebody up beyond their financial capabilities, and in that way, get them to think that it s not worth it to speak out anymore. one of the things you told me many, many times is that people think as long as a vote exists than they can vote you have democracy, but in fact, it is these ways in which justice and liberty and democracy are eroded. there are, in fact, many countries in the world where there is a vote, but the opposition leader cannot run. yes.
banking giant helped drug cartels through the u.s. financial system and as part of the settlement hsbc admits it allowed prohibited transactions with iran, libya, and other nations under u.s. sanctions but the u.s. stopped short of charging hsbc executives with any crime citing the bank s full cooperation. jesse: trump doesn t did set the option of paying a fine. obama paid a fine. he gets fingerprinted. why because they are terrified of him. rush limbaugh saw it years ago. i know they desperately want trump gone and i know that they desperately want it codified that trump cannot run again because make no mistake, they remain scared to death of you and they remain scared to death of trump. jesse: they are terrified of trump because his movement is a wrecking ball. in 2016, trump destroyed two
president. does that mean after biden s done someone from oklahoma can do the same? there are a lot of embedded issues here, even without them, he could go for a year before you really swear in a jury, with them, who knows. and it might go to federal court. it is really a complicated sort of law school hypothetical. the bottom line though is there is no constitutional reason why the president cannot run with an ankle bracelet and from jail. it s just crazy. but if the 32% stay with them, et cetera, and he becomes the nominee, and he s a convicted criminal, that s what the framers had in mind. unbelievable. but what the republicans are talking about running, with the candidates, now with nikki haley, the possibility of ron desantis, the republicans are not stupid. and if the president is up against those kinds of headwinds, well, they re not stupid. the republicans are not stupid. and if they are up against those headwinds and they are
