On Thursday’s New Day, CNN co-host Alisyn Camerota brought on deranged, Trump-obsessed contributor Michael D’Antonio to make absurd claims about the President and defend Hillary Clinton.  D’Antonio proclaimed that Trump’s rhetoric about rescinding an Obama housing policy was “a racial dog whistle or trumpet blaring” and sympathized with Clinton because “it's a remarkable thing to see this first really prominent female candidate for president emerge from all of this terrible criticism and constant badgering.” The Democratic hacks began by attacking Trump’s housing policy decision:     CAMEROTA: I mean, do you -- is this a change for Donald Trump in terms of being this explicit in terms of being this overt about saying those -- you -- you won't ever have to worry about those, you know, nasty, poor people.  D’ANTONIO: Well, it's not a change when you consider his behavior as a real estate man. Everybody by now knows that the U.S. government had to sue the Trump organization back in the 70s to get them to obey the bare minimum of the regulations for civil rights laws and for renting to minorities. And this isn't really a reference to income levels. They made that same argument back then, too. And it's really a racial dog whistle or trumpet blaring, and it is explicit. The claim that Trump rescinded the policy was a blatant lie. Conservatives, including Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson, have long opposed the Obama policy. They opposed it because it enabled the federal government to bypass local governments and homeowners by charging the federal government with planning their neighborhoods for them. The policy increased local taxes by requiring towns to build larger water and sewer lines, add mass transportation, and increase school sizes and social services. Stanley Kurtz of the Ethics and Public Policy Center wrote that the policy perverted the intention of 1968 Fair Housing Act through “federal overreach on steroids” which “nullifies the very idea of legislative democracy.” D’Antonio then made a series of bizarre claims about Trump: But I think it reflects what's inside the man. You know, you read that beautiful piece that was written by John Lewis that revealed this soulful, full heart. And I think in Donald Trump, we see the exact opposite. This is a vacant man who really is just concerned with himself. And so he's sewing division. He refuses to acknowledge the beloved community of John Lewis, and instead wants to put up walls and exclude people. Camerota and D’Antonio then attacked Trump for beliefs held by a doctor he promoted: CAMEROTA: He wanted her message out to his followers. Has he always been this susceptible to magical thinking or conspiracy theories or at this level of gullibility? D'ANTONIO: Well, the President doesn't think very carefully about what he sees and what he hears. The only reference that he has is what can I do with this material? So in this case, he thought, well, I could promote this wacky theory and all of these crazy ideas because it somehow fits in with what I'm promoting. Camerota also asked D’Antonio about his new book on Hillary Clinton. The Democratic shill responded by empathizing with Clinton: She spent the first five or ten years of her life in this strange position where people were talking more about her hair and clothes and makeup than -- than they were about her as a person or about her husband's policies. So it's a remarkable thing to see this first really prominent female candidate for president emerge from all of this terrible criticism and constant badgering. And you learn, you know, what it is like to come from a minority, you know, women are a minority in terms of power in our country and to have to carry the weight of all these expectations and criticism through life. Ah poor Hillary. It must have been so difficult coming from a rich family and attending an Ivy League School. And to paint her as a victim was nauseating. Victims are those she let die in the Benghazi attack and the women she enabled her husband to molest. CNN only cares about bashing Republicans and will protect Democrats, no matter how evil their actions. This Democratic propaganda was brought to viewers by Liberty Mutual and Procter & Gamble.

He’s also the author of the new book The Hunting of Hillary: The Forty-Year Campaign to Destroy Hillary Clinton. And Michael we’ll get to your book in a moment but first, let's just talk about the things that we have seen in the past basically week with President Trump. First, he puts out this tweet that appears -- is supposed to, guess, appeal to suburban voters. He says, I am happy to inform all of the people living their suburban lifestyle dream that you will no longer be bothered or financially hurt by having low-income housing built in your neighborhood. Your housing prices will go up based the market and crime will go down. I have rescinded the Obama/Biden affordable housing rule. Enjoy, exclamation point. I mean, do you -- is this a change for Donald Trump in terms of being this explicit in terms of being this overt about saying those -- you -- you won't ever have to worry about those, you know, nasty, poor people.  MICHAEL D’ANTONIO (CNN CONTRIBUTOR): Well, it's not a change when you consider his behavior as a real estate man. Everybody by now knows that the U.S. government had to sue the Trump organization back in the '70s to get them to obey the bare minimum of the regulations for civil rights laws and for renting to minorities. And this isn't really a reference to income levels. They made that same argument back then, too. And it's really a racial dog whistle or trumpet blaring, and it is explicit. I -- But I think it reflects what's inside the man. You know, you read that beautiful piece that was written by John Lewis that revealed this soulful, full heart. And I think in Donald Trump, we see the exact opposite. This is a vacant man who really is just concerned with himself. And so he's sewing division. He refuses to acknowledge the beloved community of John Lewis, and instead wants to put up walls and exclude people. So it is who he is, but it is explicit. CAMEROTA: Michael, how about what we saw this week, where the President endorsed that doctor who believes that alien DNA is being used in our medications, and believes that people are engaging in astral sex with demons -- I mean, I'm not making this up. This is truly what her belief system and what she propagates is. And he called her very impressive. He wanted her message out to his followers. Has he always been this susceptible to magical thinking or conspiracy theories or at this level of gullibility? D'ANTONIO: Well, the President doesn't think very carefully about what he sees and what he hears. The only reference that he has is what can I do with this material? So in this case, he thought, well, I could promote this wacky theory and all of these crazy ideas because it somehow fits in with what I'm promoting. And that idea of not wearing masks, you know, this doctor, who does say some awfully wild and incredible things, declared that we don't need masks because somehow the President's magic elixir that he says will cure everybody with coronavirus, works. Now, just think about that for a minute. Forget the preventative measures that would keep you from getting sick, she's saying. Let yourself get sick, burden the healthcare system with that, and you'll be better because this magical potion works. And -- CAMEROTA: Yeah -- D'ANTONIO: -- our president is endorsing it. CAMEROTA: And that's the least nutty thing that she said. D'ANTONIO: It is. CAMEROTA: Michael, I had an opportunity this week to sit down with a group of voters who voted for President Trump in 2016. Some of them now regret their vote. And one of them talked about something that she fears that you're beginning to hear a lot of people talk about. So let me play that moment for you. (Cuts to video) MONICA HAFT (FORMER TRUMP VOTER): And so when this election occurs and if it's not -- the result isn't in his favor, I don't think the man’s going to leave and that scares me. (Cuts to live) CAMEROTA: So Michael, what about that? I know that President Trump doesn't like to lose, I know he never admits defeat, but when he is defeated, does he stick around? Or is he more likely to go back to his old life in Trump Tower and leave, you know, the White House and the responsibilities of the presidency behind? What do you think? D'ANTONIO: Well, I actually think he'll try and make himself bigger. He'll -- I'm sure have a massive media presence, he's going to comment on everything, and he'll attempt to be even more disruptive than he is today. Because you know, he -- he's not going accept losing all the attention that he's received in the last four years, and it's been massive. So, we're not going to be through with him, I don't think, until he passes away, and he may leave a message like John Lewis, but it'll be a chaotic, negative, divisive message. CAMEROTA: And I'll cry for a different reason. D'ANTONIO: Yes. CAMEROTA: Michael, tell us about your book, The Hunting of Hillary. How long she was vilified and why? Just tell us what you found out in the book and the -- and the gist. D'ANTONIO: Well, the most remarkable discovery I think I made was this now 42-year-old videotape of a very young Hillary Clinton who was the wife of the new Attorney General and she was interviewed and the entire interview on television was about the fact that she was a woman who called herself Hillary Rodham and was from the east and had a great education. And well, people in the heartland aren't going to accept you. She spent the first five or ten years of her life in this strange position where people were talking more about her hair and clothes and makeup than -- than they were about her as a person or about her husband's policies. So it's a remarkable thing to see this first really prominent female candidate for president emerge from all of this terrible criticism and constant badgering. And you learn, you know, what it is like to come from a minority, you know, women are a minority in terms of power in our country -- CAMEROTA: Yeah. D'ANTONIO: -- and to have to carry the weight of all these expectations and criticism through life. CAMEROTA: She continues to be such an interesting character to explore and -- D'ANTONIO: She does. CAMEROTA: -- you do that in your book. Again, The Hunting of Hillary: The Forty-Year Campaign to Destroy Hillary Clinton. Michael D'Antonio, thank you very much for all of the insight.
