>> yeah, you know, i thought it was actually pretty powerful. it wasn't a frame i had thought of before or heard before, the lost cause. that's -- i grew up in tennessee. some of us are southerners. you know that kind of, we have this lost cause, you look back and you go back over and over again. and it's like a second lost cause is what biden is saying. that the southern confederates were defeated and wouldn't ever admit it. now you have the trump machine defeated and it won't admit it. he's drawing a line between that refusal to deal with reality and the violence of january 6th and the potential violence that could come with this election. for me, i think he's doing a good job trying to get back to his home turf, south carolina, get back to the black base, reminding them of some of the stuff that maybe people have forgotten about and reframing what we're seeing as part of a long tradition of very, very dangerous politics in america.

proof goes, where that persuadable number of republicans can really come into play, and then let's also not forget the verdict of history here. i hope we are at the largest number of people who really, truly believe trump and it's all diminishing from here. that's where i hope we are. if we are there, this trial is going to be an important piece of that puzzle to obliterate this conviction that so many americans have that there was something wrong in 2020. and that's why it's so key to bring this case. >> you know, david, i remember, and i've talk about it before on this program, i remember my dad who, of course, my parents, like your parents, i'm sure, very conservative southerners, southern baptists, grew up shaped -- their politics shaped in large part by the chaos of

with sending fake electors, trying to vote beyond, around the law. >> these weren't fake electors. these are alternate electors, which john kennedy did in 1960. it was a phone call followed previously. >> different situation. >> devin situation, michael, how so? >> really, please. are you provoking me tonight? this so-called alternate electors scheme that john kennedy supposedly followed, according to this ridiculous lawyer who doesn't deserve to be a lawyer if that's the kind of precedent he cites, do you know what that precedent was? in 1960, jon kennedy got 303 electoral votes. a lot of them were from southern states. a lot of southerners were worried, quite rightly, but if kennedy got to be president he would do everything he could to slowly but he would do everything he could to fight racial segregation, which he did with a civil rights act in 1963. so what did the southern

stories out of the music industry. first of all, the tale of jason jason all dean, defending his long try that in a small town, saying it has nothing to do with race, despite it being filmed in a famous lynching, and the lyrics of the song itself, it sounds like a warning, black southerners would have gotten from good old boys in like, 1953, let alone 2023. it's an interesting twist. the company that produced the music video has edited video, cutting out six seconds including the six seconds about black lives matter protests. if it wasn't about black lives matter, why was it in there in the first place? and if it was defensible, why cut it out? here's questions that -- aston's latest post on the

The Lead With Jake Tapper

ignorance around the proud boys and feigned ignorance around david dukes. this is when he ran for president. what i think tommy tuberville is up to is trying to mainstream white nationalist ideology, mainstream the term white nationalism. so in an interview it's sort of confusing because on the one hand he says, listen, racism is bad. white nationalists if you want to call it that, that's not great. but i think that's what he's up to. listen, this is part of a long tradition particularly among white southerners of a certain age down-playing racism in the south, down-playing racism in america, down-playing racists themselves. there he is almost seeming to suggest white nationalists are ordinary americans who love their country. again, listen i don't think it's by accident he's doing something and i think it's something
