  • uh huh.

  • Now the top story, Americans are gleefully watching the inspirational story of a president who wouldn't let 12 court losses get in the way of his dream of completely embarrassing himself.

  • Meanwhile, Trump's attorneys continued to abandon him like he was his own sons, forcing him to hire Harrisburg based attorney and overlap before and after photos of Chuck Todd Mark a scare in G before becoming Trump's attorney.

  • Scavenge E.

  • Said this.

  • There really are no bombshells that are about to drop.

  • That will derail a Biden presidency, including these lawsuits.

  • At the end of the day, in my view, the litigation will not work.

  • It will not reverse this election now, Alex, despite all of Trump's setbacks, is there still a path to a coup for him?

  • I don't think so.

  • But there is a technical path, and I've been concerned about.

  • It has to do with certain state Republican legislatures sending a different set of electors from their state, but I don't think it's very likely I think it's divisive for the Democrats to come out so strongly against the coup.

  • They may not have voted for him, but he is still our president for life.

  • I mean, this kind of feels like that subway where I point at the pepperoni is and they give me cucumbers.

  • And how is that, junior?

  • I mean, that's about my pay grade.

  • I don't think anybody should be making fun of the president.

  • The backbone of our nation's landmark court cases was a Siris of smaller, frivolous cases argued by attention seeking dopes.

  • Absolutely not.

  • Meanwhile, in Georgia, the Republican secretary of state faced pressure from Senator Lindsey Graham to carefully review every ballot with a fine tooth wood chipper.

  • I just want to be clear on this Mr Secretary, you say Senator Graham wanted you to find ways to get rid of legally cast ballots because CNN asked him about these allegations.

  • He denied them.

  • He says, That's ridiculous.

  • Well, Justin, implication that look hard and see how many ballots you could throw out and on.

  • I think that they were looking at that as part of a court case, and one actually was subsequently filed, wasn't it that normally be the scandal of the decade?

  • But the country is maturing and taking a much more measured approach to throwing out black people's votes.

  • Alex, you've got to treasure these moments, huh?

  • I'm not sure I'm in a mood to treasure them.

  • I think what Lindsey Graham did was close to a felony.

  • Lindsey Graham might just have been trying to lighten the secretary of state's recount load by getting rid of ballots.

  • It's like how I limit how many dishes I have tow wash by putting all of my food for the whole day in one big popcorn tub.

  • And actually, cheating is one of the cornerstones of Western democracy, with the other three corners being lying, bribing and murder could always count on you to keep it light.

  • Doctor, thank you for that.

  • Now, Alex, your new documentary, Totally Under Control, documents Trump's tireless effort to make the pandemic go away by depriving it of attention.

  • Now Trump wants credit for a vaccine that's being developed tweeting.

  • Another vaccine just announced this time by modern, A 95% effective for those great historians.

  • Please remember that these great discoveries which will end the China plague all took place on my watch.

  • Alex, how do you make your documentary so compelling?

  • Considering the protagonist didn't take any action at all?

  • Well, I think that's what the documentary was all about the idea that our chief executive, in the face of a global pandemic did absolutely nothing, which put us all at risk and indeed cost the lives of over 200,000 people, you know, historically, white men have been reluctant to take credit for something they played no role it.

  • So it is nice to see Trump breaking the mold, that's for sure.

  • Not White House coronavirus adviser Dr Scott Atlas is making the offer gotten point that there's more to life than stopping are imminent death.

  • This kind of isolation is one of the unspoken tragedies of the elderly who are now being told.

  • Don't see your family of Thanksgiving.

  • For many people, this is their final Thanksgiving, believe it or not, what are we doing here?

  • It's not about just stopping cases of co vid.

  • We have to talk about the damage of the policy itself.

  • Now I don't want to step out of line here, but it seems to me the White House coronavirus advisers should not be advocating for the spread of coronavirus.

  • Alex, does the doctor have a point?

  • No, on.

  • We wouldn't be in this situation.

  • There were a lot of last Thanksgiving for people on account of the administration's policies of not reckoning with the coronavirus.

  • Alex, I gotta push back.

  • He's right to point out the damage of the policy.

  • I don't think loneliness actually existed before.

  • Social distancing.

  • Yeah.

  • I mean, what if the rial coronavirus was loneliness all along?

  • Is that something?

  • Maybe?

  • No.

  • I guess it's some kind of virus.

  • Okay, now we're out of time.

  • Sorry we didn't get time to speculate on whom Republicans will refuse to recognize this.

  • Joe Biden, Secretary of the Interior.

  • Thank you to our analysts and guests.

  • Alex.

  • Kidney.

  • Thank you so much, Alex.

  • Thank you.

  • Good to be with you.

  • And do not forget to tune into my Twitter stream on Thanksgiving to see me pound a gallon of shops and cry that I'm not related to Current Russell.

  • Goodnight, everyone.

  • Now, Alex, you must get sick of hearing pitches all the time.

  • But have you thought about doing a documentary about World War Two?

  • You gotta look into it.

  • I saw this documentary about this war, and it's it's just nuts.

uh huh.
