Jordan:
A gay couple should have the same rights as a het–.
MAGA Woman 1:
No, I don't. I really don't. I don't think it's fair.
Jordan:
To the gay couple?
MAGA Woman 1:
No, but the regular couple, they work so hard, you know. And the gay couple, they want more.
Jordan:
When you say more, do you mean equal?
MAGA Woman 1:
Yeah, they want equal in that.
Jordan:
And that's just too much.
MAGA Woman 1:
Yeah.

Jordan:
Are you in a better place than you were four years ago?
MAGA Man 1:
Absolutely. Absolutely.
Jordan:
Is America in a better place than it was four years ago?
MAGA Man 1:
I believe, absolutely.
Jordan:
We have higher unemployment. We have 200,000 people dead due to COVID, and we have riots in the streets.
MAGA Man 1:
Let me just tell you this much. I'm doing much better. I'm literally making four times as much as I was making when Obama was president.
Jordan:
What do you do?
MAGA Man 1:
I work for a debt relief company.
Jordan:
Now, as a debt relief employee, you make more money under Donald Trump.
MAGA Man 1:
Yeah.
Jordan:
It's good to be a white debt relief collector.

Jordan:
Read the transcript, right?
MAGA Man 2:
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Jordan:
Did you read the transcript?
MAGA Man 2:
I mean, I've read most of it. There's, there's not some…
Jordan:
You skimmed the transcript.
MAGA Man 2:
Yeah. I don't have time for it. You know, reading all the, you know, impeachment, all that bullshit, you know, but uh…
Jordan:
How long have you been waiting out here for Donald Trump?
MAGA Man 2:
Since eight o'clock.
Jordan:
Hours! A lot of free time.
MAGA Man 2:
Absolutely.

MAGA Man 3:
Read the transcript.
Jordan:
Read the transcript. Did you read the transcript?
MAGA Man 3:
I don't have to. Everyone else I guess. I can read it if I need to.
Jordan:
But yeah, but it's important that somebody reads the transcript.
MAGA Man 3:
It is very important. Pay attention and think for yourself.
Jordan:
Yes, you have. But to be clear, you have not read the transcript.
MAGA Man 3:
I haven't.
Jordan:
But it is just important.
MAGA Man 3:
Yeah. Don't be a sheep. Think for yourself.
Jordan:
But again, just to be very clear, you have not read it?
MAGA Man 3:
I have not read it.
Jordan:
You just trusted somebody else.
MAGA Man 3:
Right.
Jordan:
What are you saying? Don't be a sheep?
MAGA Man 3:
Think for yourself. Do your own research.
Jordan:
Do your own research.
MAGA Man 3:
Right.
