Right Wing Pranksters' Washed Up 45 Interview Pulled From YouTube!

Right wing pranksters get their podcast pulled from YouTube because the former president was inciting violence and spreading misinformation.

Why can't the world quit him? 

This guy is living rent free in the heads of cable news agitators, talk radio agitators and even the former president. He is mentioned by the far-right, the left and the lawmakers in Washington. The former president acts like he is the president despite losing the electoral college and popular vote. 

His incompetence swayed 74.8 million Americans. The Republican Party needs to move past him. The junk food media need to stop covering him. I would like for America to stop allowing the former president and the misinformation be televised.

Washed Up 45 is banned on Twitter, Facebook, TikTok, DailyMotion, Spotify and YouTube.

He spreads rampant misinformation and conspiracy theories. He invites violence and can be considered a threat to democracy. So why the hell do they still want his input on the nation and the leadership of his successor Joe Biden.

Washed Up 45 appeared on the most recent episode of the YouTube prank squad Nelk Boys' podcast, Full Send Podcast, which premiered on Wednesday afternoon. The appearance was another sign of the growing reach of the group, who have turned prank and party videos into an influencer empire.

The Nelk Boys are a group of YouTubers known for provocative prank and party videos peppered with crude, bro-culture jokes. Their main channel, which launched in 2010, has over 7 million subscribers and 1.15 billion views. The group has also expanded into additional channels, hard seltzer and merchandise, which their company claims makes them tens of millions of dollars in revenue each year.

Less than a day after the former president's appearance on the podcast, which was titled "Donald Trump on WW3, Talking to Putin and Joe Rogan," the video had already received over 3.8 million views on YouTube.   

The group has ignited multiple controversies in the past. In 2020, their YouTube channel was demonetized after they repeatedly encouraged fans to break COVID-19 social distancing and lockdown rules. The team's leader, Kyle Forgeard, was also briefly arrested in April of last year after allegedly impersonating a mall police officer for a video, but his charges were later dropped. The group was also kicked off a cruise after they repeatedly harassed a speaker at an event under the guise of pranking.

The Nelk Boys rose to fame in the past decade on the back of comedy skits where they performed extreme pranks and said bizarre things to strangers in public. Some of their most popular videos involve members pretending they have cocaine in front of police, ruining wine tours by getting drunk and acting reckless, and crashing live 

The group brands itself as having an unfiltered quality and willingness to go beyond what other prank YouTubers would do. Forgeard told the New York Times in 2021 that "every video, we're swearing, we're doing some stuff that could be questionable or illegal, we're making sexual references or drug references."

Some of the squad's other main members include Jesse Sebastiani, Salim Sirur, and Steve Deleonardis, who also has his own separate channel, SteveWillDoIt, with over 4 million subscribers. The interview was hosted by Bob Menery with Deleonardis, Forgeard, and Sirur, who gave sympathetic talking points and left his statements largely unchallenged.

At one point during the show, Washed Up 45 said he thought there "could be a chance of World War III" because the US is no longer respected. He also partially blamed Russia's invasion of Ukraine on how President Joe Biden's administration dealt with the removal of troops in Afghanistan, and claimed there was "zero chance" Russian President Vladimir Putin would have invaded while Washed Up 45 was still president.
