Charlamagne pushes back against Democratic narratives: 'I don't even know if I believe it anymore'

Radio host Charlamagne tha God and Comedian Andrew Schulz pushed back on a number of Democratic narratives on their podcast "Brilliant Idiots" on Saturday.

"Until smart Democrats like Chris start having honest conversations about the party, and what they do, nothing is going to change," Charlamagne said. Referencing Trump's "hell to pay" message to Hamas on releasing the Israeli hostages before his inauguration on Jan. 20, Charlamagne said, "From the time Trump said that, that's when conversations started to speed up. And I mean Israeli TV is saying the same thing."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised Biden and Trump for their roles in advancing the negotiations. Netanyahu thanked Biden for his commitment and lauded Trump's assertion that Gaza should never again become a "haven for terrorism." 

Schulz then jumped in and asked, "But why are they all hanging out and chumming it up with Hitler? I don't get it."

"That's my point," said Charlamagne, adding, "my point is, if you're going to have that rhetoric, keep that same energy."

Charlamagne continued to rip into Obama for being friendly with Trump, saying, "You said this man was a threat to democracy. Right? You said these things. You're the last real leader of the Democratic Party. You tell me if that's good political optics, why should I, like I said, I said this last week, why should I believe anything that comes out of Democrats' mouths?"

The radio host expressed that he "never called Donald Trump a fascist based off anything I heard from Democrats. I said that because of the things I heard come out of Donald Trump's mouth. Right. But guess what? I don't even know if I believe it anymore," adding, "But only because of how they're, only because of how they're acting. I'm like, well, God, maybe it ain't that much of a threat."

"Exactly, they lied to you," Schulz responded.
