The video says (transcribed automatically):

I tell you, the nightmare scenario is one that we're warning people on the trail, because if this group of insurgent left Democrats, they are Marxists in their ideology, they're telling you what they're for, abolish the borders, abolish prisons, defund police, defund the Department of War, but they also want to go after, they want to do lawfare on steroids. So if this group took over, heaven forbid, Dana, they would turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body. They'd spend every day investigating the president, the first family, the cabinet, you know, donors to the party, leaders in business and industry. the cabinet, donors to the party, leaders in business and industry. It would roil the markets and it would empower our enemies around the world at the worst possible time. We just simply can't. And they're running.
