5. Media Relations and Trump’s Actions at Davos

• Andy Frisella (13:24): "He's just a typical rhino, warmongering Republican weirdo."
• DJ CTI (15:05): "Donald Trump's got an eye for cool."

• DJ CTI (24:03): "Hundreds of Donald Trump supporters... were freed."
• Andy Frisella (25:16): "You can't logically think that that one is okay and one is not okay unless you just have an agenda to destroy the country."
