Red Alert Politics‘ Ryan Girdusky appeared on The Big Picture with Thom Hartmann Monday and fireworks immediately exploded when the progressive host started asking about Donald Trump’s video tape leaked last Friday and the debate on Sunday night.
Girdusky, a Trump supporter, insisted that the Republican nominee won the second presidential debate and excited the party base enough to help with down ballot candidates.
“It was a very good day, and I think that going forward the Republican base that are so badly needed from down-ballot race onwards will show up and Independents can pick and choose what they want to do,” Girdusky said.
Joel Silberman of Democracy Partnership disagreed insisting that Americans were “reeling” from the videotape featuring Trump making lewd comments about women.
“America is not reeling from this videotape, America reels from things like Hurricane Katrina; they reel from all the wars that Hillary Clinton supported,” Girdusky clapped back.
“I think they’re pretty grossed out,” Hartman said in response.
“They might be outraged, but they are not reeling from this,” Girdusky continued. “There is no one at home saying ‘I just can’t get out of bed today because of that videotape.'”
The Red Alert Politics writer pointed out that the most searched term on Google about Trump the day of the debate wasn’t even about the tape; it was about who played him on Saturday Night Live (Answer: Alec Baldwin, in case you didn’t know).
“I don’t remember any Democrats saying that America was reeling when Bill Clinton shoved a cigar up a 19-year old interns vagina, smoked it, and said ‘tastes good,'” Girdusky said, reminding the Leftist panel of their level of hypocrisy of words vs. actions.
Girdusky said that the Wikileaks email revealing that Clinton supports fracking worldwide was much more substantial than a conversation about an 11-year old videotape, “but apparently to Democrats this election, pussy matters a lot more than policy does.”
Things got even more chaotic when Silberman insisted that Girdusky was offering up a “word salad,” a phrase he repeated three times and Girdusky shot back, “Is this the Food Network?”
