a person in mental decline for president of the United States. The whole party must be in mental decline. Yes Jen, that is a normal smart reaction to what you observe. And boy does he stand out. All that normalness is looking crazy.

But I would say it's not so much a mental decline in the way that Biden is mentally declining. I would say that there's a weird denial of reality that happens on the left that is unlike anything I've ever seen. And I believe that they have somehow created a fantasy world they can live in just all the time. So they live in a fantasy world that Trump somehow could conquer the country through the force of his will plus his friends in high places. That's crazy. It's just crazy. They fantasize that they can put together this speed primary and they put that together. No they can't. That's not going to happen. And then they fantasize that maybe Gavin Newsom could come in and be the head of the party. No we can't. If you haven't noticed that Newsom could not possibly skip over the DEI vice president you haven't noticed anything. How could you know anything if you don't know that? No Gavin Newsom was never a possibility to be the head of the ticket. Never. So far away from being possible that it's a joke. But I don't think that's from mental illness. I think that's DEI and inability to see cause and effect and inability to understand human motivation. Inability to see things as systems instead of goals. A complete denial of reality basically. But not mentally incompetent. It just seems some kind of weird selection process.

Anyway here's what CNN quoted Trump talking about Kamala. Now here's a change. How often does Trump get quoted in full insulting Kamala Harris or a Democrat? It's sort of the sort of thing that they wouldn't want to say because it's sort of good for Trump if it's a good insult. So here's what they quoted on CNN. Trump saying whatever else can be said about crooked Joe Biden you have to give him credit for one brilliant decision. Picking Kamala Harris as his vice president was the greatest insurance policy of all time. If Joe had picked someone even halfway competent they would have bounced him from his office years ago. It's so perfect. It's just perfect. I tell you that the Trump campaign, he's just hitting every note that is perfect. It was so perfect that CNN read it on the air because it's perfect. There's no hyperbole in it and yet it comes off as hyperbole but it's literally true. It would be hard to argue with the statement that if the vice president were just clearly a superstar by now the pressure to get rid of Biden would have been through the roof because everybody would say well the superstar can beat Trump better than you can. But people are looking at a degraded mentally incompetent president and saying you know what, well you're still better than Harris. The fact that even that's a conversation shows that she is the perfect insurance policy.

Meanwhile Joy Reid continues her mental breakdown in public. And I don't mean that as a joke. To me her mental breakdown, actual form of some kind of insanity or mental incompetence, is very obvious. And if you tell me but Scott let's see your diploma for being a you know some kind of expert on mental health, have you been alive for the last year? You realize this is the same thing that's happening with the news being surprised that Biden is not mentally capable. Oh how about the fact that you didn't have to be an expert and everybody who wasn't a liar saw it on day one. I mean we've said for years that Biden can't make it two terms and here we are. So don't tell me that Joy Reid is not having a mental crisis. She's having a mental crisis. It could not be more obvious. It's not a difference of politics. It's not a difference of opinion. What it looks like is that she got brainwashed or yeah she looks like she got gaslit by her own team. It looks like she believes her own network. Same with Rachel Maddow. Just listen to her for five minutes and you can see extreme mental health problems that are coming through with her work. And by the way she admits to a lifetime of depression so she does have genuine mental issues and you can see that this is making it worse. So to pretend that these are opinions I'm really so done with that, right? It's really not about their opinions being different. That is just mental illness. Let's call it out.

And by the way Kamala Harris looks drunk to me lots of times when she appears in public. And am I an expert on addiction? Nope. But I can spot a drunk. I think you could too. I do it actually. I do it all the time. I spot drunks on X. I call them out for acting drunk. You'd be surprised how many times they get back to me and say okay you got me I am drunk. Because it's easy to spot. You don't have to be an expert. I've done it in public a number of times recently where I say you sound drunk and then they say okay you got me I'm a little drunk.

All right but don't get cocky. So if you're so smart that you saw Biden's decline and you're celebrating I'm so smart I saw Biden's decline before the news admitted it, did you also think that Newsom had a chance to be the top of the ticket? Because if you're bragging about seeing that Biden wasn't capable but you didn't know that Newsom is a white man who doesn't have any chance of being the top of the ticket, if you didn't know that you can't brag. If you got them both right you could brag a little. I think that would be totally appropriate. If you got the Biden thing right, you got Kamala Harris looks like she has a substance problem, and you guessed that the Democrats can never skip the DEI vice president with a white guy, if you got all three of those right then you're pretty smart. Or you agree with me. That's just as good.

RFK Jr. was asked about reparations. He says that reparations are not legal and that there was a Supreme Court case that would confirm that. And he said the only way it could ever be legal or funded is if you could somehow prove a direct connection like you knew your DNA came from a slave and you knew where you, I don't know what you'd have to know but you'd have to know something specific. It would never be good enough that you're just Black and you live in the United States. So apparently the Supreme Court ruled on something like that that I didn't know about. But RFK Jr. says it's not an option. But he says that systemic racism against Black Americans is deeply embedded in our prison, legal system, education system, job market, access to capital and beyond. So he says the moral argument for reparations is compelling. I disagree. I agree that the systemic racism exists exactly as he described it. That's not connected to the moral argument for reparations.

Yeah here's a better explanation. Everybody's got some wrong. Everybody's got a problem. That's it. The moral argument doesn't exist because we all got problems and all of us could trace it back to somebody else. Yeah you know think I could sue for reparations. I lost two jobs in corporate America for being a white male and my TV show because they decided to have an all Black Monday night lineup on UPN. You don't think I have a case for reparations? Of course I do. Everybody else does too. That we all got problems. We all got problems and a lot of them are somebody else's fault. You just can't run a country where if you got a problem even if it's real and even if it came from the system you can't give everybody reparations for that.

I do agree with the direct ones like the Japanese internment. People were still alive. There were living people alive who were in them. I happen to know several of them quite well.

All right, so Duke Medical School, some new documentation for their Duke Medical School. They claim that white supremacy culture is something you want to get rid of and you want to get rid of things like dismantling racism and advancing equity. The way they're going to do it is get rid of these white supremacy work culture things such as being on time, dressing professionally, your speech and your work style and negative terminologies. So they're going to get rid of all that stuff. It says that white supremacy culture is the idea or ideology that white people and the ideas, thoughts, beliefs and actions of white people are superior to people of color and their ideas, thoughts, beliefs and actions. And that's just wrong, says Duke. It says that America is rigged for the interests of white people who get privileges and they're unquestioned about their earned set of advantages, entitlements and benefits bestowed on people solely because they are white. Well not in the country that I live in. In my country being white and male is about the worst thing that could happen to you and I wouldn't wish it on anybody. But sure, sure your problems are bigger than mine. How about that? Yeah your problems are bigger so we'll do everything your way. This is just dumb. Who got in power, right? Whoever it is who's arguing that to be Black means to not be on time and not dress well for work. It's just, let's not pretend this is some kind of ideology.

Right now there's certainly something to it that there's some systemic whiteness preferences built into some things but there are so many things that the non-white preference is built into it's not even close. At the moment it's probably ten to one against white men. Probably ten to one in terms of the weight of bias. But is there a one? Yes yes there is. There is definitely discrimination and systemic racism that affects Black people and other minority groups. It's just that if you want to be accurate in counting it, this being my theme, my theme is that the data is all motivated. If you actually counted up how many people lost a job this year because of their color white men would win hands down. How many people know that? If you stop somebody in the street and say is job discrimination by race real they would of course say yes because everybody knows it's real. Then you would say all right were there more diverse minority people who got turned down for jobs or more white men? The average person would probably say oh minorities of course. They would probably be wrong by ten to one meaning it's not close. It's not close. It's ten to one. It could be a hundred to one. I don't know. Probably not a hundred to one but it's probably ten to one. I think that's a fair estimate.

All right, Governor Whitmer does that funny thing with body language where she says the fact of the matter is that President Biden is showing that he's up to the moment, up to the job, he's in it to win it. Now my impression of her head while she's saying it, the fact of the matter is the president is showing that he's up to the moment. He's up to it. He's so good. He's up to it. And her head is just shaking no. Yeah that's one of the easy ones. The spot that in the wide-eye thing. I think it was John Kirby who did the wide-eyed thing talking to Bret Baier. Yeah say do you think the president is capable of doing the job? And Kirby first looks down. He's like oh can't make eye contact like he's preparing. He's like oh yeah yeah yeah totally good good. And then he does the wide-eye thing. He looks at Bret Baier, goes he's totally good. Everything about him seems totally normal. I don't even see a problem. He's so mentally acute or whatever that word is. I like to say acuity. It's hilariously bad body language.

So the only hope that the Democrats can win is to unite around some kind of gaslighting idea because apparently the Democratic caucus met and they decided that they all hate each other. So if you are finding yourself disliking Democrats here's the good news for you. Democrats agree. They just think it's the other Democrats that are bad.

All right, last night on The Five on Fox News Greg Gutfeld was amplifying the idea of T
