Douglas Murray on CBS Paying Trump 16 Million Over Deceptively Edited Kamala Harris Interview

[00:00] Joining me now is the best-selling

[00:02] author of groundbreaking books including

[00:04] The War on the West, The Strange Death

[00:06] of Europe, and his latest on democracies

[00:08] and death cults, Douglas Murray. Let's

[00:11] start with another big win and payout

[00:14] from a media organization to Donald

[00:16] Trump. Paramount Global has agreed to

[00:19] pay 16 million to settle a legal dispute

[00:22] with the US president regarding a

[00:24] deceptively edited 60 minutes interview

[00:26] with Camala Harris broadcast on CBS.

[00:30] Let's have a look at example of this

[00:32] deception. Let's have a look at what

[00:34] Camala said in The Real Answer and what

[00:37] 60 Minutes put to air. But it seems that

[00:40] uh Prime Minister Netanyahu is not

[00:42] listening. Well, Bill,

[00:46] the work that we have done has resulted

[00:49] in a number of

[00:52] movements in that region by Israel that

[00:54] were very much prompted by or a result

[00:59] of u many things including our advocacy

[01:03] for what needs to happen in the region.

[01:05] But it seems that uh Prime Minister

[01:07] Netanyahu is not listening. We are not

[01:09] going to stop pursuing what is necessary

[01:12] for the United States to be clear about

[01:14] where we stand on the need for this war

[01:16] to end. Just a subtle difference there.

[01:19] The deception was an attempt to uh tip

[01:22] the scales in favor of the Democratic

[01:24] party was alleged in the presidential

[01:26] election. It didn't work Douglas and it

[01:29] was an expensive exercise.

[01:32] It is extraordinary, isn't it? I mean,

[01:33] you sort of almost have a little bit of

[01:35] nostalgia, Rita, don't you, for uh

[01:38] remembering those days when we had to re

[01:41] to hear Carla Harris uh fudging her way

[01:45] uh through questions as if she was a

[01:47] sort of really, you know, schoolage

[01:50] child desperately trying to cover over

[01:52] for the fact that she hadn't done her

[01:53] homework. I mean, it's just excruciating

[01:57] hearing her, you know, remembering those

[01:59] wonderful camela dialogues, you know,

[02:01] the the that's why we've done things

[02:04] that needed to be done which if we

[02:06] hadn't have done the things might have

[02:08] been done in a very real sense for

[02:10] America. I mean, it's just so

[02:13] astonishing that she was ever uh at the

[02:15] level of candidacy that she was and

[02:18] indeed uh in the position that she was

[02:21] as the second most powerful person uh in

[02:24] the United States. And you know, this is

[02:27] all just a reminder that despite her

[02:30] obvious inadequacy uh for the role of

[02:33] vice president, let alone president, uh

[02:36] there were so many people in the media

[02:37] uh let alone the Democratic party who

[02:39] were just like wafting her upwards,

[02:42] covering for her, telling us like with

[02:44] Biden that she was at the peak

[02:46] performance, the best VEP we'd ever had,

[02:49] totally on top of all issues. And yet

[02:51] you see in the unedited tape what we all

[02:54] knew which was that she was hopelessly

[02:56] out of her depth as indeed was her boss.

[02:58] But the fact that so much of the media

[03:00] was willing to help her in that really

[03:02] is pretty astonishing. And I think

[03:04] anyone who doesn't think otherwise

[03:05] should just think what would it be like

[03:08] if we'd found that a media interviewer

[03:10] had covered for Trump in that way and

[03:12] that he had been floundering or JD Vance

[03:15] had been found totally flounder on a

[03:19] question of geopolitics like this is

[03:21] it's it's it's really extraordinary.

[03:23] Okay.
