i learned two things the first of all it wasn't kool-aid. it was a cheap knockoff called flavor aid, it is many as the third of the people who died in jonestown didn't voluntarily drink it. they were forcibly injected so it was mass murder. and the second thing was jim jones had been hit by a car and killed in the late '50s, early '60s he would be considered one of the leaders of the early civil rights movement in america. i felt people sit and i wouldn't beeo alive without jim jones and people's temple. how could he change into what he became? how could hee have attracted suh attention at this timent in america? and why would he driven overseas by bad press decide on this final fatal and historic way of demonstrating his disdain? so i didn't think of myself as writing my follow-up cult book i was writing a follow-up book about someone who unexpectedly achieved great infamy but unlike manson had actually accomplished a great deal of good. how does thatll fit together? >> host: jeff guinn, the survivors of the people who left people's temple

first, it wasn't kool-aid, it was a cheap knockoff and as many as a third of the people that died in jonestown didn't voluntarily t drink it. if jim jones had been hit by a car and killed in the late 50s, early 60s, he would be considered one of the leaders of the early civil rights movement in america. how could he have attracted such attention and this time in america, and why would he have driven overseas by bad press decide on this final fetal and historic way of demonstrating his disdain? i was writing a follow-up book about meone who unexpectedly achieved great infamy and looked like manson accomplished a great deal of good. how does that fit together? at the survivors of the peoples temple are in a way kind of like your extended family. they have squabbles, but up and till a few years ago they would all come together around labor day not just to comfort each other but to know that they were with other people who would understand. they were treated with such great disdain. what's the matter, weren't you thirsty that day? what kind of fool are you that you could follow someone l

as a sport and that was one of the things that took us to a path-a where trump was able to be the kool-aidshing through the wall and offering these people something that felt a little bit more in touch with their grievances. >> were you surprised by the democratic strength in the recent midterms? and wondering if you would comment on the campaign i think you were here covering it. >> i visited with her yesterday in dc. she's doing great and sends her regards. >> what about the messaging, everyone thought she was going to win. >> i was a little bit more bullish than the pendant but i didn't think it was going to be as good as it was and i was worried about arizona in large part i felt like the campaign wasn't particularly strong especially compared to if you look at pennsylvania i felt very strong and what happened here was this method of focusing on t the republican extremism workd in large part because they were so crazy. they had this hubris and confidence because they think that biden has dementia that they could get away with it and so you had to these candidates that were very detache

he is drinking the kool-aid. hopefully, there will be an aerial view of the arraignment. it may biggest arraignment ever. comer is always looking for one whistleblower after the of their. he spent how many years looking for people and he cannot find anybody in what he does, they take off. he says we got it all come with a laptop, the crime family. you are all crazy. trump is a crook. raisi being arraigned? -- raisi being arraigned? host: in the new york times from the headline firm the court of public opinion. former president donald j. trump bases 78: the accounts and three different criminal cases including civil lawsuits and trials alleging all sorts of wrongdoing. at least in the court of public opinion, is a defense can be boiled down to three words, what about hunter? from trump steam to conservative media the republican party leadership, the reaction to the latest blockbuster indictment accusing the former president are nothing short of trying to subvert democracy focused not on the evidence against him so much as the scandals of president biden's son. the real out

but he drank the kool-aid. he really believes these things.he really believes what he said about how the left wants to destroy america. that's what everything else follows. from >> i totally agree with you about that take away, and i think there's something that happens to me where sometimes i see a particular prominent figure, sam alito sometimes giving speeches and, like, i kind of know what media they're consuming. [laughter] >> and look, here's the thing. those of us in the media who feel that it's important as a true things to people, wonder how we reach people outside of that sphere or bubble. if it's getting to john eastman, that's a bit of a challenge. >> thank you very. much still to come, i still want to find 11,780 votes. new subpoenas a new signals. another indictment coming for donald trump, next. >> this was the scene outside the atlanta courthouse this week. the fulton county district attorney's office when investigating donald trump's attempts to overturn the election in the state of georgia. barriers, traffic redirected, bomb-

>> you know, i do believe that there are those republicans who have actually drink the kool-aid, when it comes to the things that donald trump had said. but i think that is a fringe group of the republican -- my republican colleagues. many of them are not afraid of donald trump, but more afraid of that 35% of the base who would follow donald trump anywhere. and as we can recall, as you stated in that impeachment trial, it took two thirds to find him in fact convict him. but it would have only taken a majority of members to bar him from ever running for office again. i can recall going to senators, republican senators. and that is the strange thing about impeachment. the people who are your witnesses in the jury are speaking to you. the republican senators would come to me and say, you actually have incredible evidence against him. this man needs to be stopped. this is terrible. i would say, look, just vote with us on the conviction. and we only need to the democrats for him to be barred from office. demofor the most part, they woud say yeah, i don't think it's enough of us that are go

they drank the kool-aid. i represented one of them. >> i remember. >> so he knows that. and i said this on your show about a week ago. the evil genius of donald trump is he knows how to push the buttons of his followers. and he knows the dog whistles. and that's the evil genius of this man. >> well, listen. while we wait for the epiphany that you seem to be waiting on with bated breath, and i will be glass half empty in that moment, but i'm going to fuel my optimism through paula reid. stand by. i want to go back to paula reid and talk more about this. sources are telling cnn tonight that fulton county d.a. fani willis is expected so seek more than a dozen indictments next week as a part of her overall investigation into the efforts of donald trump and his allies to overturn the state's 2020 election. paula, what are we going to expect to see, what should we expect to see next week in fulton county? >> as you know, the district attorney fani willis has had this long-running investigation into efforts to overturn the election results in georgia. she's interviewed over 75

definition of the pot call the kettle black the anti-trump cult leader says the other side is drinking kool-aid. got it. old nancy must think americans are puppets as well. according to gallup, just 8% of the american public says the biden administration halls excellent ethics. i would love to meet those people while nearly five times as many, 37% feel their ethics are lacking a bit, maybe poor. that might be the understatement of the night. joining me now to react charlie hurt opinion editor at the "washington times" and a fox news contributor. charlie, when trump ran in 2016, he talked about the corruption of the swamp. i mean -- >> -- yes. >> pete: it's only gotten worse. yet, they continue to cover for him. >> no. it's incredible, pete, to stop and think about this. you know, what we have seen over the last two years has proven everything as if anyone was doubting what it was that donald trump was saying about what was wrong with washington and in particular what was wrong with the democratic party and at that time especially the clinton family and hillary clinton. it's all -- you know, eve

just like in the '80s, when the kool-aid man took on the south african government. >> apartheid?e is his nobel prize? robbed. so, the packaging is dumb but harmless, right? not according to fox news host harris faulkner. >> when you look at the package, the women are upside down. and i understand "flipped," but thank you very much, we stand on our own. we don't need to be shown on a package looking crazy, upside down. >> stephen: "no, we need to be looking sane! you know, complaining about candy packaging on a news network!" normal! uh! come on. really! another thing they're upset about was this photo of these two female m&m's mascots. holding hands there. keep in mind, this tweet is from 2015. so, naturally, they were complaining about it yesterday. >> apparently there's new lesbian characters. it's female empowerment. i just didn't know that when i was eating, like, an orange right now, is this orange a man or a woman? >> stephen: easy, pete. it's easy, pete. the ones with an "m" are men, the women have a w. okay? [cheers and applause] lady candy. and come on, pete, we're all a

if they drink the kool-aid. >> danny, i will go back to a point that jennifer made, i thought it was very interesting which is the difference between jack smith and fani willis. jack smith, as far as we can tell, i mean we know it was mentioned the diamond, obviously it superseding indictments that may change this. there is no mention of coffee county the coconspirators are not mentioned by name we don't know how into the weeds he's going into georgia except for some of the items identified in that. that's including the phone call to brad raffensperger walk it through why youth he think he did not pursue the investigation into what's happening and coffee county why might that be different than fani willis is, is it jurisdictional, is there a bigger strategy in terms of the charges he's crafting to go after trump and what fundi bots is. doing >> the short answer is he probably didn't need to he didn't need to get into coffee county to achieve his objectives. by that i mean special counsel jack smith everything about the d. c. indictment signals that jack smith is looking to streamline

i'm saying is that you have a republican electorate that is by and large buying whatever flavor of kool-aid that's really dangerous because as we all know, there are huge issues that could be the republican elected officials could be taking to these voters, putting it in a different way in the post trump presidency, and say, look at biden, he's not addressing cost of living, we haven't got a plan to prevent the next pandemic, and on top of it, why don't we bring back conservatism when it applies to migrants taking asylum within our borders? so, again, the ability to have that capitalization on the issues and the messaging on that, it's unable to happen because of the lay of the land. >> steve, last question to you. we've seen this movement before now. we know how it ends. donald trump said he was gonna do it, then he did it. is there any evidence, as we head into 2024, that because donald trump has followed up on his previous promises with respect to extremity and extreme messaging that that is going to impact anything in terms of how people vote, does that seem to be penetrating in terms o

>> in february march of this year, a six -- great kid 21 years old, he swallowed the kool-aid. i lost, fought like heck. it was very hard to pick a jury took us almost a week the reason is 95% of the voters in d. c. voted against donald trump. can you get a fair trial here? yes, but it is going to be difficult. jury selection in this case is going to take 2 to 3 weeks. the questions and answers are going to be really hard to deal with. but, i experienced it for six weeks, it can be done, my client is going to appeal, but he could get a fair trial. >> yes, i suspect you're right. everybody, standby we have a lot to discuss. up next and advisor to rudy giuliani joins us live, after the former mayor is named as a coconspirator in this case. plus, carrie swisher is here on the very interesting revelation chris christie made to her about jack smith. and presidential candidate vivek is also joining us as he defends donald trump. this is cnn special live coverage. helped me get more sleep. quviviq works differently than medication you may have taken in the past. it's thought to target

the actual 50th anniversary of hip hop with kool herc.as like, okay, we have to really do something special. that night, san jose jazz started in 1986 and now offers music education programing at title one schools in san jose music summer camps grant and a high school all star program from san jose jazz says preserve jazz is crucial to foster artistic traditions and create activity, meaning different jazz players way back when. you know , sunday jazz and sausalito. and i was a young girl and ever since then, i've loved jazz. it's in my blood and i've been saturday night was headlined by anthony hamilton, a grammy winner and platinum selling soul and r&b singer, entertaining the crowds. on sunday was singer and composer patrice rushin and grammy winning jazz singer gregory porter also hit the main stage sunday. we've been around 33 years, so we're well known in terms of the national touring, you know, music community. as long as the best in music keeps coming to the san jose jazz fest, fans like longtime san jose resident leroy barnett jr

friday night was actually be august 11th, the actual 50th anniversary of hip hop with kool herc donethe bronx. it was like, okay, we have to really do something special. that night. well, the festival draws people who are new to jazz and people who have spent their entire lives listening to it. one woman told us she remembers the first time hearing jazz. she was a little girl riding in her father's car, and now she makes a point of keeping jazz in her life. maybe different jazz players way back when, you know, sunday jazz and sausalito. and i was a young girl and ever since then, i've loved jazz. it's in my blood. well san jose jazz festival organizers say you don't have to wait until next summer to enjoy live jazz. they're holding their winter event shortly after the first of the year. and they point out the bay area still has some good small jazz clubs that are open all year round. well, the official numbers are in taylor swift's eras tour stop in santa clara gave a $30 million boost to the local economy. according to the san jose spotlight, the president of sports economics, dan r

the only thing but one of the things that took us to a path in 2016 were trump was able to be the kool-aid man crashing through the wall and offering these people something that felt a little bit more in touch with her grievances. >> are you surprised by the democrats strength in the recent 2022 midterms question i am wondering if you comment on kerry lake a a little bit, her campaign i think you were hereg. covering it. arkansas curate yesterday the governor visited with her yesterday in d.c. >> i visited with her governor she is doing great she sends her regards. [laughter] >> what about their messaging though? why didn't she win everyone thought she was going to win. >> i was a little bit more bullish than your mean pundit how the democrats are going to do in 2022 i didn't think is going to be as good as it was i was vertically worried about arizona in particular about the kerry lake race in large part because i felt the campaign hobbs was running was not particularly strong especially compared too if you look at pennsylvania, shapiro and fetterman very strong campaigns countering maga.

to keep costs low, cindy asked her brother, 18 year-old clive campbell, better known as dj kool herc,provising and playing break beats on two turntables in a continuous loop. and hip-hop was born. to help us appreciate the contributions of hip-hop, i spoke recently with nelson george, author and filmmaker. he served as co-executive producer of vh1's hip-hop honors television show and also wrote the book hip-hop america. i began by asking him about the -- about hip-hop's birth in the bronx. nelson: it was the 70's where the famous headline in the daily news was forward to city dropped dead. there was a huge white flight out of the bronx, the brooklyn particularly in manhattan. you had a lack of city services. the kind of city without a lot of freedom. you had the park were kids learned to breakdance, they played records, and you had graffiti, which was widespread throughout the city. so the things that made people say new york dropdead, some of those things gave a freedom to the city that allowed a lot of street, or you might say folk expressions to happen. amna: the music eventually e

then again, not really that surprising because maga is a cult, and trump is the jim jones to their kool-aidheir blind loyalty is stronger than ever, for a man who is clearly running for president to stay out of prison. joining me is charlie sykes, editor at large of the bulwark, and steven hassan, founder of the freedom of mind resource center, and author of "the cult of trump." i do want to start with you about this, because that poll, that response that trump is trusted as the source of true information more than conservative media, friends and family, and even religious leaders, is shocking but not vising to me. i wonder what you think of it. >> well, you know, the members are programmed to distrust mainstream media, so i'm not surprised at all about that. that those numbers, but from my point of view as a former cult member myself, who has been working for 47 years hoping people to get out of cults, i think we could change our messaging dramatically, and actually maybe get a third away from trump if we're smart with the messaging that we do. >> do tell. how? >> well, so the thing is, wh

one of the things that that kind of took us to a path in 2016 where trump was able to kind of be the kool-aid man crashing through the crashing through the wall and offering these people something that felt a little bit more in touch with their with their with their grievances. were you surprised by the democrats in the recent 2022 midterms, tim? and i'm just wondering if you could comment on kari lake a little bit, her campaign, i think you were here covering. so in terms of message, carrie, yesterday the governor i visited with her yesterday. dc sure. i was. i visited with your governor. she's doing great. she sent some regards. what about their messaging, though? i mean, why didn't wins? everyone thought she was going to win. sure, but i i. i was a little bit more bullish than maybe your mean pundit about the democrats were going to do in 2022. and i didn't think it was going to be as good as it was. and i was particularly worried about arizona and particularly about the kerry like hobbs race, in large part because just felt like the campaign that hobbs was running with was not particularl

great kid, 21 years old, he swallowed the kool-aid. i lost, fought like heck. it was very hard to pick a jury, took us almost a week. and the reason is 95% of the voters in d.c. voted against donald trump. can you get a fair trial here? yes, but it's going to be difficult. jury selection in this case is going to take two to three weeks, and the questions and the answers are going to be really hard to deal with. but i experienced it for six weeks. it can be done. my client's going to appeal, but he could get a fair trial. >> yeah, i suspect you're right. all right, guys, everybody standby. we have a lot to discuss. up next, an advisor to rudy giuliani joins us live after the former mayor is named as a coconspirator in this case. plus tara swisher is here on the very interesting revelation chris christie made to her about jack smith. >>> and presidential candidate vivek ramaswamy also joins us as he defends donald trump. this is cnn's special live coverage. ♪ chevy silverado has what it t takes to do it all. with up to 13 camera views. and the z71 off-road packag

and the trump supporters, if you will, that have kind of been drinking the kool-aid lately, the best part about this is the fact trump knew he didn't win. he didn't buy any of what he was spinning out publicly. he was lying to his supporters. he knows he didn't win. that's going to be laid out. again, it's just shocking to know that we've come this far. it's even more shocking to know this probably isn't the last indictment. this one is extremely severe. i honestly think trump is more nervous about this one, i know he is. we've already talked to people on his team today, he's more nervous about this one than any of the others because so many other folks involved. not just mark meadows. so many other folks involved in that conversation and many of those folks are no longer part of his inner circle. he no longer controls that narrative with these people. he's scared. i think the discussion of when it comes to bear, when the trial actually comes, but he knows this one could really stick. >> yeah. these criminal charges raise very serious questions, governor, about trump's fitness to err

the actual 50th anniversary of hip hop with kool herc in the bronx., okay, we have to really do something special. that night. well the festival draws people who are new to jazz and people who have spent their entire lives listening to it. one woman told us she remembers that first time she heard jazz. she was just a little girl riding in her father's car. and now she makes a point of keeping jazz in her life. meeting different jazz players way back when, you know, sunday, jazz and sausalito. and i was a young girl, and ever since then, i've loved jazz. it's in my blood. san jose jazz festival organizers say you do not have to wait until next summer to enjoy more live jazz. they're going to hold their winter event shortly after the first of the year, and they point out the bay area has some good small jazz clubs that are open all year round and the sonoma county fair was a big hit . the fair wrapped up yesterday and by midday the admission gates had registered more than 142,000 visitors. that's up 9% from last year. the youth livestock auction brought

they are like dry sponges, drinking the kool-aid.rump is being held accountable for some of the illegal and illegal behaviors. he lies all the time. everybody is lying on him. what is wrong with folks on the republican side? biden is working hard to help regular americans. laptop, that is all they talk about. host: this is scott in florida. caller: i do not see how trump can lose in georgia. you hear that he accuses him of two hundred thousand votes when underneath the table in the middle the night. they pulled them out and ran them through the machines. everybody saw that. in the tapes, he claims the 400,000 votes were stolen, which we all saw. hold on. raffensperger says, i am sorry, we do not see what you see. he is perpetrating a fraud by not investigating. i do not see how he loses. host: it sounds like we will hear more of what the former president saw. from an hour ago on his truth social account, this is what donald trump wrote. a large, complex, detailed but irrefutable report on presidential election fraud which took place

this is what irks me because they drink the kool-aid.oing to predict on this day, john, august 2, 2023, donald trump will not win. he will lose worse than before. ok? like winston had the silent majority, there is a silent majority that will keep mr. trump out of office and in jail where he belongs. donald trump's family has come to say one word for him, ok? it is not republican and democrat, it is united states of america voter. people die for votes, to be able to vote. trump will not win. host: that is lou in new york. grant is next in lincoln, nebraska, an independent, as we hear from brent we can hear -- we can show you a few more headlines from newspapers around the country including out of minnesota and florida as well. grant, go ahead. caller: good morning, john. i had a quick reaction and a short thing about drum. i think these indictments are going to boost his numbers. i would be pleasantly surprised if he got convicted of any of this stuff. i think trump is right about d.c. being a swamp, which is the thing he did back in 2016

that is, if you're the jim jones of american politics, sooner or later people will realize the kool-aiden that will dwindle down, because they will not achieve anything. at the end of the day. anyone that was on the trump ticket with them was robbed. he was saying he was robbed. and in georgia, he's saying the republicans that supported him, that voted for him, is he saying they robbed him? they're the runs that refused to give him the 11,780 votes that he said you can say that you recounted or went over it. so, as some point people will begin to realize that he is giving us something that's totally self-serving and was corrupt. i think that will dwindle over time. i think he knows that. at the end of the day, the wizard of oz knew that he was not the wizard. >> he is not a wizard. no one is going anywhere today. we have much more on this unprecedented summer of indictments, and the pileup of criminal exposure facing the disgraced ex-president. and his allies that he's the victim of a two-tiered judicial system. there may be two tiers of justice. and later in the hour, how the biden cam

everybody seems to be drinking the kool-aid this year.rnings in may that really kick started this frenzy. it contributed to more than 1/10 of the s&p 500 total returns through july, so it has really brought a lot of the market along with it and that poses risks as well. in july we have already seen stocks mired in one of the worst slumps since march. we are facing rising yields. a lot of people are questioning, has a.i. mania gone too far too fast? that is what makes these earnings results so important after the closing bell. it does seem that people are fearful of missing out. they want to play short-term gains in the stocks and that is why they are turning to the options market and maybe buying shares ahead of earnings. that helps to explain the 8% shares on monday alone. it looks like the stock is up in premarket trading. some people are saying that if this is the next apple and if this thing continues and a.i. really does change our world, we don't want to miss out. >> thank you. >>> squawkbox will be right back. this is dr. arnold t.
