>> Are you a Republican speaking to a bunch
of people? Do you need to keep a straight
face while telling the world a bunch of lies?
Then you'll need and you'll need my lie serum.
Hi, I'm Cy Sherun with Cy Sheerun's Lie Serum,
this is my serum. You've heard of truth serum,
well, this is the opposite.
One sip of this, and you'll tell whoppers
just like the opposite of Lincoln, maybe Washington.
I don't remember, whoever did the with the
tree. One little bit, and you'll be lying
like a Trump.
>> Biden has pledged to defund the police.
>> No, he didn't, explicitly didn't. Lie serum,
lies, lies, lies, we engineer them with Cy
Sheerun's Lie Serum.
Let's hear them, we got tax-cut lies.
>> President Trump cut middle-class taxes,
putting tens of thousands of dollars back
in the pockets of working-class Americans.
>> Yeah, the top 1% got 50k, sure, but middle-class
families only got $500, that's less than under
Obama. But you got lie serum, mm, now snortable.
We got lies about North Korea, where Trump
said he'd bring the fire and the fury. Here's
our prized client Mike Pompeo.
>> In North Korea, the president lowered the
temperature and, against all odds, got the
North Korean leadership to the table.
>> Except North Korea has always wanted to
meet with our top executive, hell, they settled
for our top rebounder.
Lie serum, lie serum, you want the truth,
no, that's not what this is, this is a lie
serum, it's for lying. Our truth serum is
so powerful, you can lie about how Trump's
doing on coronavirus. After all, we have way
more infections than anyone else in the world,
and that's per capita.
We also lead the world in deaths, and here's
all the places Americans can't go because
we're so disgusting, we're a disaster. But
watch this, our top customer Larry Kudlow
is gonna convince people that it's all over.
Hit him with that Cy Sheerun's Lie Serum.
>> Presidential leadership came swiftly and
effectively with an extraordinary rescue for
health and safety to successfully fight the
COVID virus.
>> Score one for the liars, and don't keep
score of the die-ers. You're so good, just
sit on my face with more lies, MAGA, lie serum.
I'm not gonna lie, except I am with all this
lie serum. So there will be some side effects,
like unhinged, crazy-ass screaming.
>> The best is yet to come!
>> Lies, why fear them, let's cheer them,
don't jeer them, I got serum. I'm Cy Sherun
of Cy Sheerun's Lie Serum, you're gonna love
it, I guaranteer them, order now.
>> That was so good, Brett. If you tried to
sell that on Alex Jones's whatever he's on
these days, I think people would buy it.
Even though it's a joke, I think they'd buy
it.
>> I'm convinced, I wanna buy this lie serum
now, Brett is Oscar, Emmy-worthy. Yeah, and
if you actually saw the convention, I could
stomach five minutes of it, I had the exact
same thought, so thank you, Brett.
>> Yeah, yeah, no, it's incredible, and that
shirt, I can't get over the shirt and the
gold chain.
It's very Better Call Saul-lesque, it's very
good. But yeah, I mean, and the thing that
I can't get over, every once in a while we
might get something wrong. And I'm always
mortified when that happens, right, because
I have no interest in lying, I wanna tell
the truth to the audience.
The fact that the right wing, not just politicians
but members of the media, just lie to their
own supporters with a straight face on a regular
basis. And it's intentional, right, It's not,
I got a fact wrong. It's just intentional
lying, like with Steve Scalise editing the
audio of Ady Barkin's conversation with Joe
Biden.
That's totally fine for them, they do it all
the time, don't care. It's the asymmetrical
situation that we find ourselves in politically,
right? Because you have one side that revels
in its fascistic propaganda. And then you
have the other side, if we're just talking
about liberals, Democrats, the Democratic
Party, they don't really fight back.
They still treat the Trump administration
and right-wing media as if it's any old election,
like it's the 1990s, it's an election against
bob dole. No, we're in a different time, and
this election needs to be treated differently.
I don't know what the exact solution or answer
is. But it is frustrating to see all this
propaganda on one side and this feckless behavior
on the other.
>> Yeah, and I don't know if the Democrats
haven't had this kind of neutral, harmonious
Kumbaya message for quite a while. Like under
Barack Obama, when they did win, it was under
this message of hope and change. Maybe people
will be so over Donald Trump that it's like,
whatever.
It doesn't matter what the Democratic messaging
is. It's fine, but I do think that it's something
they have to think about. And just be clear,
I don't endorse candidates, I don't endorse
parties, I consider myself an independent.
So this is not me trying to strategize for
the Democratic Party.
But if they want to maintain power beyond
these four years if Biden gets it, you can't
get it by avoiding the divisions that already
exist. You can't get it by avoiding the fascism
and the turns of fascism, the fascism that's
coming from the right wing. You can't get
it by avoiding the power dynamics that is
really disempowering and oppressing millions
of people.
Because there's a lot of people who they might
go to Biden, but a lot of people will just
stay home. And so if you're still just talking
about unity, like up until over the summer.
People are still talking about unity and just
coming together with Republicans and having
all these Republicans speak on their platform.
You're not dealing with the fact that they're
actually harming people's lives. And if your
policy either contributes to it or does nothing
about it, you're gonna lose people. And I
know this is not really the point of this
segment, but I just wanted to say that anyway,
somewhat tangentially related.
>> No, that's a great point, and I think it's
an important point to make, right? I mean,
I wish they would take your advice as opposed
to Rama Manuel's advice. Who sees this election
as not a transactional election between Trump
era, I mean, Bush-era Republicans in the Biden
campaign.
He specifically said he wants this to be a
transformational election for the Democratic
Party, where we cater to Bush-era Republicans
for years to come. And I think that is a terrible,
terrible piece of advice not only for this
upcoming election but for the future of the
country overall.
I think that's an awful piece of advice, so
I'm really glad you made that point.
