Nicole Shanahan - Trump Derangement Syndrome

3:28
Trump has been see see Maga which I'm
3:31
learning so much about I I was
3:33
completely misinformed about what Maga
3:36
is I don't know if you've taken any deep
3:38
dives into Maga world but I was just
3:41
under the impression that they were gun
3:44
toing radicals who wanted to come to my
3:47
doorstep and rip my liberal family out
3:50
of my house um and in I don't know do
3:54
horrible things to liberals um and and
3:57
that's how that's how Maga has been sold
4:00
to a huge portion of America by the
4:04
mainstream
4:05
media and um I have to say that what I
4:09
have learned about Maga is that they're
4:10
actually their own party they're their
4:12
own Grassroots organization that chose
4:15
Donald Trump they have so much power in
4:18
deciding where to point their energy and
4:21
support and there are really really
4:25
smart thoughtful intellectual people
4:27
within Maga I've received beautiful
4:29
written notes um from Maga supporters
4:33
and they were you know our base didn't
4:36
know how to engage with Maga our base
4:39
was not um you know Maga oriented in the
4:43
sense of even knowing who and what Maga
4:46
was and what their infrastructure was um
4:49
in many ways it's an online viral
4:51
movement and so the the coming together
4:55
of and they gave us the name Maha make
4:58
America healthy again have you
5:00
yes I've seen it yeah oh my gosh I mean
5:03
we we didn't come up with that we're
5:04
getting hats made but um the coming
5:08
together of of these two groups over the
5:10
last week hasn't even been a full week
5:13
yet but watching that happen um has been
5:17
really glorious because that was always
5:19
the vision of this Unity movement this
5:23
desire to heal the divide and even
5:27
though these are just two pockets um
5:30
within a much larger group of of the
5:33
American demographic they're two very
5:35
powerful pockets and to find Common
5:38
Ground has been um one of the most
5:41
motivating optimistic things I've
5:44
seen in recent in recent political time
5:48
absolutely and amen to that and and it
5:51
promises to be a landslide Coalition uh
5:54
as well now a couple of things that
5:56
struck me about what Nicole just said
5:58
there uh which was was absolutely
6:00
beautiful uh and I'm sure many of you
6:02
are very moved by that uh right now very
6:06
very heartened by by what she just said
6:08
there which was so sincere um but of
6:12
course uh a couple of things do stick
6:14
out one is it reminds me of what Brandon
6:17
struck of the Walk Away movement the
6:19
founder of the Walk Away movement
6:21
reminds me of his testimony of what
6:23
ultimately redpilled him so if you don't
6:25
know Brandon is a gay hairdresser he
6:27
voted for Hillary in 2016 fact part of
6:30
his walk away testimony you could see
6:32
him cringe say it but he even admitted
6:34
to crying on the morning of November 9th
6:37
2016 when he found out that Hillary lost
6:40
but he uh but he noticed that as he
6:44
started to listen to Trump's
6:46
policies uh his uh views on border
6:49
security Economic Security cultural
6:51
security Brandon really found them to be
6:54
quite compelling quite
6:56
persuasive and he started say you know
6:58
what I think I I think I really support
7:00
this and when he would share that with
7:02
his friends particularly his gay friends
7:04
his liberal friends they would all
7:06
basically castigate him like he was a
7:08
traitor like was a heretic and they said
7:11
things like don't you know Mike Pence
7:12
wants to burn you at the stake don't you
7:14
know that Trump wants to throw you into
7:16
prison and that's when he suddenly
7:19
realized what the left
7:21
does it threatens people into compliance
7:26
it threatens people into to submission
7:30
through the mechanism of fear hey gang
7:33
with everything going on right now it's
7:35
hard to say what could happen or what
7:37
will happen and to make matters even
7:40
worse we usually don't find out until
7:42
it's too late
