BACKSTAB: Trump officials TAKE each other DOWN | Another Day

Trump filled his White House with a. bunch of vipers. It didn't take long for. them to start strangling each other. This is just another day. [music]. Over the last month, we've watched. tensions escalate between federal law. enforcement and the people of Minnesota. Civilians have been terrorized, 5-year-olds have been rounded up, and. two innocent motans have been murdered. Finally, yesterday, as if the empathy. light in his brain had suddenly switched. on after 79 years on the fritz, the. president seemingly started to give a. Well, I'm looking at that whole.

situation. I loved everybody. I love all. of our people. I love his family. Uh, and it's a very sad situation. The. bottom line, it was terrible. Both of. them were terrible. The other was. terrible, too. And I'm not sure about. his parents, but I know her parents were. big Trump fans. Makes me feel bad. anyway, but I mean, I guess you could. say even worse. They were tremendous. Trump people. Trump Trump fans. >> Even worse. Ah, yes. For so it is. written in the Bible, all human life is. a precious gift from God. But if your.

parents are tremendous Trump fans, your. life is like extra super precious. I. believe that's from the book of Donald. But now that Trump has decided to do his. best impression of a person with a soul. by slightly acknowledging the. incompetence and violence caused by his. own administration, it seems inevitable. that the head of someone who works for. him is going to have to roll. And if a. head's going to roll, might as well be. the one made of plastic, you know, so it. doesn't break. >> DHS Secretary Christy Gnome is facing.

bipartisan criticism so far. Democrats. and even some Republicans, like I said, though, are calling for the removal of. no one as Secretary. An impeachment plan. on Capitol Hill as more than 145. Democrats signed on. Others say. President Trump should fire her. >> Of course, Trump has to fire Gnome. What's the alternative? Fire himself? Who would finish remodeling the. ballroom? You think JD Vance can be. trusted to pick the right curtain. fabric? You think he's going to get us. the best deals on crown molding? Face.

it, without Donald Trump's eye for. design, this nation would fall apart. Still, while it's no surprise that. Democrats want Gnome fired, Republicans. are usually extremely reluctant to speak. out against anyone who has Trump's. backing. So, you know, things are. looking bad for Gnome when she's. catching this kind of GOP shade. >> I've lost confidence in her. I think we. would be we would be better served um. with new leadership in the department. >> She has taken this administration into. the ground on an issue that we should.

own. We should own the issue of border. security and immigration. But they have. destroyed that for Republicans. Something that got the president. elected. They have destroyed it through. their incompetence. >> That's right. The American people. elected Donald Trump because they wanted. competent cruelty. They wanted a. militarized police force that looked. cool rounding up old people and kids. They wanted this, okay, not this. This just makes us look. stupid. Nevertheless, everyone seemed. pretty cool with letting Christy Gnome. take the fall for how the Republican.

party's agenda of inhumity has played. out in Minneapolis. Everyone, that is. except Christine Gnome. >> We have learned Homeland Security. Secretary Christy Gnome requested a. meeting at the White House last night. Sources telling ABC News President Trump. met with Secretary Gnome for two hours. in the Oval Office. She seems to. indicate that everything that she's. done, in other words, people are. pressuring her. She's getting that. bipartisan pressure, but everything that. she's done has been carried out on the. orders of either Steven Miller or the. president of the United States.

>> Christy Juvéderm Dome, I am surprised at. you. Who knew that you were hiding such. a mchavelian mind beneath that synthetic. weave that such cunning words could. spill from those voella lips? Don't play. innocent now by batting that. blleroplasty at me. See, some might. interpret her claim that she was only. following orders as your standard. Nermberg defense. And sure, it's that, too. But I also heard her say, "Stephen, Donald, you know I've got receipts for. all the crazy you've asked of me.

So, around and find out. The buck. got passed to Gnome, and now she's. passing it right back to Donald Trump. and Steven Miller." And not just that, she is threatening them. She's saying, "Fire me, and I'll tell the world all. the other illegal you had me do.". Honestly, this was so predictable. I. never saw it coming. Trump filled his. administration with the most venomous. snakes that he could find. And now that. the is hitting the fan, they're. eating each other. Because guess what? That's what snakes do. Honestly, I don't. think Trump could make Christy know him.

the fall guy, even if he wanted to. But. even though powerful people in his party. are calling for it, it doesn't really. sound like he does. Based on the. reporting that that CBS News has done, uh we're told she is unlikely to lose. her job. Uh this president, especially. in his second term, has been really. reluctant uh to let anyone go because it. creates the impression that um that. there are mistakes being made in this. administration. He's someone who often. doesn't like to uh to admit that.

>> Oh, is he is Donald Trump someone who. doesn't like to admit when he was wrong? I had noticed that about him. Can you. even give me an example? Okay, but that was one time, two times. >> President Trump is refusing to back down. on his claims that the election was. stolen from him. The president released. a new video on Tuesday in which he said. there was a plot to deny him a second. term, but he presented no proof. >> Okay, I'm starting to notice a bit of a. trend here. But the funny thing is, making Christine Nome Secretary of.

Homeland Security isn't the mistake. Trump needs to admit to. The situation. in Minnesota isn't violent and untenable. because Gnome went rogue. It is a. gruesome show because that is what. Trump promised us. Do you remember how. Trump pitched to end property crime on. the campaign trail? But they have to be. taught. Now if you had one really. violent day like a guy like Mike Kelly. put him in charge. Congressman Kelly put. him in charge for one day. One rough hour. And I mean real rough.

The word will get out and it will end. immediately. >> He promised us one violent day. He's. given us a whole year. Trump just comped. us 364 extra days of carnage. No wonder. he's a titan of the service industry. The man knows how to spoil his. customers. And violence wasn't just his. answer to property crime. He explicitly. told us it was his fix for immigration. And when first started to get. violent, he said it wasn't violent. enough. More recently, Americans have. been watching videos of ICE tackling a.

young mother, tear gas being used in a. Chicago residential neighborhood, and. the smashing of car windows. Have some. of these raids gone too far? >> No, I think they haven't gone far enough. because we've been held back by the by. the judges, by the liberal judges that. were put in by Biden and by Obama. >> You're okay with those tactics? >> Yeah, because you have to get the people. out. >> You got to get them out. What choice do. you have but violent ice raids? In fact, that's Trump's solution to getting. everything out. You should see it when.

he can't get the ketchup out of the. bottle. I mean, hell, how did we not. expect this? This is what the White. House tweeted on January 13th. Fear not, great people of Minnesota, the day of. reckoning and retribution is coming. Look, I'd like to use the old when. someone tells you who they are, believe. them cliche. But all this tough guy. toxically masculine doesn't. seem to square with how he reacts when. his strategic violence plays itself out, right? He doesn't pump his fist. He says. this, "Well, I'm looking at that whole. situation. I love everybody. I love all.

of our people. I love his family. Uh, and it's a very sad situation.". >> In fact, he doesn't just call the. violence sad. He disavows it. He denies. it. He deflects it. >> Commander Bavino is supposedly leaving. Minneapolis along with some CBP agents. Is this a pullback? I don't think it's a pullback. It's a. little bit of a change. Everybody in. this room that has a business, you know, you make little changes, you know, Bavino is very good, but he's a pretty. out there kind of a guy. And in some. cases, that's good. Maybe it wasn't good. here.

>> Do you agree with the assessment from. some of your own officials that Alex. Prey is a domestic terrorist or an. assassin? >> Well, I haven't heard that, but uh we. have Tom Hol in there now. We put him in. there. He's great. And they met with the. governor, the mayor, everybody else. And. we'll we're going to deescalate a little. bit. >> Wow. All it took was two people getting. shot to turn Mr. One Day of Violence. into a deescalation beta Look, I. don't think it's a sign of Trump's. weakness to want to turn down the. temperature in Minneapolis. What is weak. is pretending that's what you want. What's weak is saying one thing and. doing another. What's weak is being too.

scared to show your face when you're. brutalizing communities or refusing to. take responsibility for the harm that. you cause. If the tactics ICE is using. on the ground in Minneapolis seem. familiar, it's because they are the same. tactics Trump uses from the Oval Office. In fact, look at the way Trump asked to. be introduced in Iowa today. >> You know, they're playing this song, Macho Man. Every hardworking woman. deserves a macho man. And I see a whole. lot of them all around me. But the number one macho man you're.

going to hear from in a little while. >> Dude, that's a song about gay culture. But how absolutely fitting. Trump really. wants you to think he's a macho man, but. he honestly doesn't even know what it. is. A macho man admits when he's created. a dangerous, chaotic climate of fear and. does what he can to fix it. Did you know. that? >> Well, I haven't heard that. >> I figured. [music].
