Donald Trump uses the term "schlonged" to describe Hillary Clinton's 2008 primary loss and mocks her late return to a debate stage following a bathroom break. Reports suggest Clinton's delay was caused by the presence of Huma Abedin or another individual in the facility, leading to Trump's "disgusting" characterization of the event.

Following the release of the Levin Report, there is increasing media speculation regarding the criminal prosecution of Goldman Sachs executives, specifically CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Matt Taibbi and Elliot Spitzer appeared on Anderson Cooper's program to discuss the lack of accountability for the 2008 financial crisis. The theory suggests that Blankfein may be used as a scapegoat to satisfy public demand for justice while the broader financial system remains unchanged.

Elliot Spitzer's interview with Muslim extremist Anjem Choudary is described as a "created piece of crap." Spitzer's lead-in claimed that radical Islam was "conspicuously absent" from the Arab Spring, a premise the hosts find logically flawed. They mock Spitzer's aggressive posturing and the scripted nature of the cable news segment.

The discussion shifts to the $170 million AIG bonus scandal, which is characterized as a distraction from billions in taxpayer funds flowing through AIG to counterparties like Goldman Sachs. Former New York Governor Elliot Spitzer is cited for his analysis of how AIG functioned as an insurance conduit for bad money deals. Questions are raised regarding why the U.S. government only owns 80% of the company rather than full nationalization.
