1. 0:00There's two clips going viral of Clinton
2. 0:01and Obama. Oh, what's this here? I
3. 0:03understand we are fighting an
4. 0:05ideological battle that is as old as
5. 0:08time.
6. 0:08>> Yep, that's right.
7. 0:10>> There are those of us who are more
8. 0:11comfortable in a more open, tolerant
9. 0:15world. And there are those who have
10. 0:17their concerns about it because they
11. 0:19worry about the impact on existing
12. 0:21institutions like the family, community,
13. 0:24and others. Yes, migration has been a
14. 0:27huge clash point. More people were
15. 0:31deported under my husband and Barack
16. 0:34Obama without killing American citizens
17. 0:37and without putting children into
18. 0:39detention camps Oh, I thought Obama did
19. 0:42that cuz he even made the camps. People
20. 0:44did die under ICE. 56 individuals died
21. 0:47while in ICE custody. This is during the
22. 0:49Obama administration. There is a
23. 0:51legitimate reason to have a debate about
24. 0:54things like migration. It went too far,
25. 0:57it's been disruptive and destabilizing,
26. 1:00and it needs to be fixed in a humane way
27. 1:03with
28. 1:03>> What is the How do you humanely separate
29. 1:06a family and then send that person who's
30. 1:09not supposed to be here back to their
31. 1:10country? We need to do it in a humane
32. 1:12way is just code for we don't want to
33. 1:14deal with immigration. And it before you
34. 1:15talk about oh, well, you could do it
35. 1:17more easily, we did do it more easily.
36. 1:19We allowed people to self-deport. We
37. 1:21give them money to self-deport. They
38. 1:23don't do that. They know they're here
39. 1:25illegally. They stay here and then they
40. 1:27fight with the police. But what is also
41. 1:29true is that we're a nation of laws. We
42. 1:32have borders and we've got to figure out
43. 1:34an immigration policy that is fair and
44. 1:37is enforced in a sensible way. You know,
45. 1:40we've got to accommodate the reality
46. 1:41that the majority of the American people
47. 1:44think that there's a difference between
48. 1:45somebody who's a US citizen and somebody
49. 1:46who's not and that they want
50. 1:48>> using another qualifying statement. The
51. 1:50majority of the American people believe.
52. 1:52He's not using his own words. He's
53. 1:54looking and paraphrasing other people so
54. 1:56he can effectively not have ownership of
55. 1:59this idea himself. Sometimes I think
56. 2:02what happens in the online debate is if
57. 2:04somebody suggests, "Well, we have to
58. 2:05have some immigration enforcement."
59. 2:07Then, somebody's going to point at that
60. 2:09child and say, "Well, so you don't care
61. 2:10about that kid. So, you must be a bad
62. 2:13person." The same would be true, let's
63. 2:14say, here in Los Angeles around the
64. 2:16homeless issue. I think morally,
65. 2:18ethically speaking, it is an atrocity
66. 2:21that in a country this wealthy, we have
67. 2:23people on the streets. Okay, problem
68. 2:25identified. Go get them.
69. 2:27>> We simply say, "You know what? It's not
70. 2:28their fault, and so they should be able
71. 2:30to do whatever they want." That's a
72. 2:31losing political strategy. That a lot of
73. 2:34>> This is another time he's not giving his
74. 2:35own opinion. Talking about this as a
75. 2:36definitional thing. times is the
76. 2:38arguments that are taking place, but
77. 2:40they become sort of performative, and
78. 2:44people start He's right. He's sure.
79. 2:46>> saying, "Oh, you're selling out, you
80. 2:47know, you're being impractical." So,
81. 2:49like, let me just go ahead explain it.
82. 2:51So, this is what you do with the
83. 2:52homeless people. You just go around,
84. 2:53round them up, put them in some house,
85. 2:54put them in some area. If they're
86. 2:55crackheads, you put them in a rehab.
87. 2:57That's it, problem solved. This, by the
88. 2:58way, this is the moral and ethical thing
89. 3:00to do. This is the main thing that
90. 3:01annoys the [ __ ] out of me. Whenever I
91. 3:03see any of this like, you know, Obama
92. 3:05saying this, or Hillary Clinton saying
93. 3:08this. That's a losing political
94. 3:10strategy.
95. 3:10>> It's a losing political strategy because
96. 3:12it's [ __ ] [ __ ] That's the reason
97. 3:14why it's a losing political strategy.
