- >>> IF GETTING EMBARRASSED BY
- VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IN FRONT
- OF MORE THAN 67 MILLION DEBATE
- WATCHERS BY THE WAY THIS WEEK TC
- MADE DONALD TRUMP FURIOUS, AND
- YOU KNOW IT DID, IT IS CLEAR
- THE REST OF THE WEEK HAS ADDED
- TO THE RAGE.
- LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE THINGS
- THAT ARE MAKING DONALD TRUMP
- VERY MAD RIGHT NOW.
- AND JUST THIS MORNING A POLL D
- SHOWED HARRIS CUTTING THE LEAD
- IN IOWA OF ALL PLACES AND JUST
- TO GIVE YOU A SENSE OF WHAT IT
- MEANS, THE POLL HAD TRUMP
- LEADING JOE BIDEN BY 18 POINTS.
- AND HE GOT IOWA BY NON-POINTS
- -- NINE POINT SINCE 2020 AND
- HASN'T BEEN A SWING STATE SINCE
- 2008.
- YOU MUST NIGHT AT A DINNER IN
- WASHINGTON HARRIS MOCK TRUMP
- FOR THIS LINE IN THE DEBATE R
- ABOUT HAVING CONCEPTS OF A PLAN
- AND ALL WEEK LONG SHE FILLED
- 1:02
- STADIUMS WITH TENS OF THOUSANDS
- OF PEOPLE IN CRUCIAL SWING
- STATES LIKE NORTH CAROLINA AND
- PENNSYLVANIA AND GOT THE
- ENDORSEMENT OF TAYLOR SWIFT,
- WHICH IS CLEARLY STILL DRIVING
- TRUMP NUTS.
- IF YOU HAPPEN TO CLICK OVER TO
- TRUTH SOCIAL THIS MORNING, HERE
- IS WHAT YOU SAW.
- I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT.
- CLEARLY UNDER HIS SKIN.
- IT WAS SO EMBARRASSING FOR
- DONALD TRUMP THAT KARL ROVE
- BASICALLY CALLED TRUMP STUPID
- IN THE EDITORIAL PAGES OF THE IN
- WALL STREET JOURNAL.
- SO, YES, TRUMP WAS EMBARRASSED
- TUESDAY NIGHT AND HAS BEEN
- EMBARRASSED EVERY DAY SINCE.
- IN RESPONSE, HE IS NOT
- RETOOLING HIS CAMPAIGN TEAM ARE
- PLANNING A BUS TRIP ACROSS THE
- UNITED STATES TO CONNECT TO
- 2:00
- VOTERS.
- OF COURSE NOT.
- HE IS GOING BACK TO THE SAME
- XENA PHOBIC AND RACIST PLAYBOOK
- THAT HE THINKS GOT HIM THE AT
- ELECTION IN 2016.
- AND HE IS APPEALING TO HIS BASE
- WITH FEAR OF IMMIGRANTS, BLACK
- AND LATINO COMMUNITIES, AND
- FEAR OF ANYBODY WHO DOESN'T
- LOOK LIKE HIM AND HIS RUNNING
- MATE, JD VANCE.
- THE MOST DANGEROUS STEP HE TOOK
- THIS WEEK IS DOUBLING DOWN ON A
- CLAIM DEBUNKED BY THE LOCAL
- POLICE, THE MAYOR, AND THE
- REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR OF OHIO
- THAT HAITIAN IMMIGRANTS IN OHIO
- ARE EATING PETS.
- IT WAS A CLAIM HITHAT ORIGINATE
- WITH A FACEBOOK POST FROM ONE WI
- PERSON WHO LATER DISAVOWED IT
- AND FAXED DON'T MATTER TO HIM.
- HE PROMPTED THE EXPLOSION OF
- THIS THEORY HIMSELF BY
- ELEVATING IT ON THE DEBATE
- STAGE ON TUESDAY.
- LATER VOWING MASS DEPORTATION
- STARTING IN SPRINGFIELD, OHIO.
- THE RESULT OF ALL THIS IS A PO
- CITY BEING TERRORIZED RIGHT
- NOW.
- TODAY WITTENBERG UNIVERSITY HAS
- BEEN PUT ON HIGH ALERT AS
- PEOPLE THREATENED TO SHOOT
- PATIENTS ON CAMPUS AND
- YESTERDAY A BOMB THREAT
- 3:00
- THREATENED TO HOSPITALS TO GO
- INTO LOCKDOWN IN MULTIPLE
- SCHOOLS AND MUNICIPAL BUILDINGS
- WERE EVACUATED OR CLOSED ON
- THURSDAY AND FRIDAY DUE TO
- SIMILAR THREATS.
- AT LEAST ONE OF WHICH USED
- HATEFUL LANGUAGE S TOWARD
- HAITIANS.
- NBC NEWS REPORTS A NEO-NAZI
- GROUP WHICH PUSHED THE FALSE
- CLAIM IN THE FIRST IAPLACE IS
- DOING THIS TO LOCAL RESIDENTS
- HAVE SPOKEN OUT.
- SURPRISE SURPRISE.
- TRUMP IS DOING ABSOLUTELY
- NOTHING TO CALM THINGS DOWN.
- WHEN ASKED YESTERDAY IF HE
- DENOUNCED THE BOMB THREATS, HE
- DEFINITELY DIDN'T SAY YES.
- >> YOU DENOUNCED THE BOMB
- THREATS IN OHIO?
- >> I DON'T KNOW HEWHAT HAPPENED
- WITH THE BOMB THREATS.
- I KNOW IT HAS BEEN TAKEN OVER
- BY ILLEGAL MIGRANTS.
- THAT IS A TERRIBLE THING THAT
- HAPPENED.
- SPRINGFIELD WAS THIS BEAUTIFUL
- TOWN.
- THEY ARE NOW GOING THROUGH .
- >> WHEN THE QUESTION IS DO YOU
- DENOUNCED BOMB THREATS
- TERRORIZING AN AMERICAN CITY,
- THE ANSWER SHOULD BE
- UNAMBIGUOUS, BUT OF COURSE
- TRUMP'S WAS NOT.
- IN THE NEXT BREATH HE LIED
- 4:00
- ABOUT MIGRANTS WHO WERE IN THIS
- COUNTRY ILLEGALLY.
- AND WE HAVE SEEN THIS PATTERN D
- BEFORE.
- TRUMP STOKING CONSPIRACY
- THEORIES AND COMMENTING ON THEM
- IS THIS A CASUAL OBSERVER AND
- SETTING FIRE TO THE BUILDING
- AND POURS GASOLINE ALL OVER IT T
- AND THEN WONDERS OUT LOUD WHY
- IT IS BURNING.
- THIS IS WHAT HE DOES AND
- DISCUSS ANYONE WHO WAS IN THE
- U.S. CAPITOL ON JANUARY SIX.
- HE MAY BE A BUFFOON WHO WAS
- CRITICIZED FOR HIS COMMENTS AT
- THE DEBATE BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE
- THEM ANY LESS DANGEROUS.
- I THINK KAMALA HARRIS CAPTURE
- THAT DYNAMIC PERFECTLY AT THE
- DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
- >> IN MANY WAYS, DONALD TRUMP
- IS AN PUNSERIOUS MAN.
- BUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF PUTTING
- DONALD TRUMP BACK IN THE WHITE
- HOUSE ARE EXTREMELY SERIOUS.
- >> JOINING ME NOW ARE TWO
- 5:00
- PEOPLE WHO NEVER HOLD BACK AND
- WHO WILL HAVE THOUGHTS ABOUT
- ALL OF THIS IS CONGRESSMAN
- JASMINE CROCKETT AND GEORGE
- CONWAY.
- I WANT TO START WITH DONALD
- TRUMP'S REFUSAL TO CONDEMN THE
- BOMB THREATS AND WHAT WAS YOUR
- REACTION TO THAT?
- >> MY HEART ACHES THAT THIS
- ELECTION IS CLOSE BECAUSE IT
- COMES DOWN TO SOME BASIC NORMS E
- AND PRINCIPLES OF WHAT WE
- SHOULD SEE IN LEADERSHIP FOR
- THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE
- WORLD AND SPRINGFIELD IS GOING
- THROUGH BUT THEY DO BECAUSE THE
- GUY WHO SAYS HE WANTS TO BE THE
- COMMANDER IN CHIEF IS ACTUALLY
- BRINGING THAT TO THE FOOTSTEPSN
- AND HE DECIDED AMPLIFY ALLY ON
- A NATIONAL STAGE HARMING
- AMERICAN CITIZENS AND THAT IS A
- PROBLEM AND WHEN I TALK ABOUT
- MAGA, I TALK ABOUT THE FACT
- THAT WHEN WE FINALLY SWORE IN,
- 6:01
- WE SWORE TO DEFEND AGAINST
- THOSE THAT ARE COMING AGAINST
- US, WHETHER THEY ARE DOMESTIC
- OR INTERNATIONAL.
- RIGHT NOW, I FEEL LIKE MAGA IN
- GENERAL IS A THREAT TO US NE
- DOMESTICALLY.
- AND WE SIT TIME AND TIME AGAIN.
- AND I THINK YOU SEE LEADERS
- COMING TOGETHER THERE IS ONLY
- ONE PERSON QUALIFIED TO BE THE
- COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF AND THAT IS
- KAMALA HARRIS.
- >> A LETTER SIGNED THIS MORNING
- BY PEOPLE WHO WORKED FOR RONALD
- REAGAN AND I WANT TO ASK AND
- TALK ABOUT THIS AS WELL BUT, LK
- GEORGE, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNING
- ABOUT THIS PATTERN, ABOUT
- STOKING AND FEEDING INTO
- CONSPIRACIES AND LETTING IT SIT
- OUT THERE AND DOING NOTHING TO
- CALM IT.
- WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR REACTION AS
- YOU WATCH THE EVENTS OF THE
- LAST FEW DAYS IN THE ABSOLUTE ST
- TERROR THAT HAS BEEN UNLEASHED
- ON THE PEOPLE OF SPRINGFIELD,
- OHIO, AS A RESULT?
- >> WHAT I HAVE SAID FOR YEARS
- IS DONALD TRUMP IS A SOCIOPATH.
- THEY LIE RELENTLESSLY.
- THEY HAVE NO EMPATHY OR CARING
- FOR OTHER PEOPLE.
- 7:01
- WHO REFUSES TO SAY THAT THEY
- CONDEMN A BOMB THREAT? A
- SOCIOPATH OR PSYCHOPATH.
- SOMEBODY WHO HAS NO CARING OR
- FEELING FOR OTHER PEOPLE AND
- ONLY CARES FOR HIMSELF.
- IT IS ALL ABOUT HIM AND HOW HE
- THINKS HE CAN SPUR PEOPLE ON
- INTO VIOLENCE AND SUPPORT HIM.
- HE IS JUST A DANGEROUS PERSON. E
- THAT IS EXACTLY WHY YOU SEE
- CONSERVATIVES LIKE ME AND THE
- 17 PEOPLE FROM THE REAGAN
- ADMINISTRATION AND LIZ CHENEY
- AND SO MANY OTHERS SPEAKING OUTA
- AND SAYING WE CAN'T HAVE YOU
- BACK BECAUSE HE IS A DANGER
- THAT EVEN WHEN HE ISN'T
- PRESIDENT.
- HE IS A DANGER CAMPAIGNING
- CAUSING ALL THIS ESTROUBLE AND
- NOT RIOTING BUT THE DANGER
- HAPPENING IN SPRINGFIELD, OHIO.
- THAT IS WHAT HE DOES.
- >> ONE OF THE THINGS, AND I
- MENTIONED THIS AND I WOULD LOVE
- YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS.
- 8:00
- THIS IS A PATTERN.
- HE LOVES TO GO AFTER -- THIS IS
- HIS PLAYBOOK.
- HE LOVES TO GO AFTER
- COMMUNITIES THAT DON'T LOOK
- LIKE HIM.
- HE GOES AFTER BLACK AND LATINO M
- COMMUNITIES AND THOSE WHO HAVE
- A LARGE NUMBER OF IMMIGRANTS.
- IT IS A FEAR BASED APPROACHED.
- HE DOES IT IN AURORA, COLORADO,D
- AS WELL.
- WHAT SHOULD PEOPLE UNDERSTAND
- AND KNOW ABOUT THAT?
- HAITIAN FAMILIES NDARE KEEPING
- KIDS INSIDE WITH SCHOOLS AND
- HOSPITALS BEING SHUT DOWN. WHAT
- SHOULD PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THAT
- IN THE IMPACT OF COMMUNITIES?
- YOU SEE THESE COMMUNITIES
- IMPACTED.
- >> HE LOVES TO SAY THINGS SUCH
- AS THEY ARE ILLEGAL.
- EVERY TIME HE TALKS ABOUT AN
- IMMIGRANT, HE MAKES IT SEEM AS
- IF THEY HAVE DONE SOMETHING
- NEFARIOUS.
- JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE
- IMMIGRANTS, IT DOESN'T MEAN
- THERE IS ANYTHING ILLEGAL ABOUT
- THEM.
- WHAT IS SO WILD ABOUT ME IS
- THEY NEVER THINK ABOUT THE FACTY
- THAT THEY LITERALLY HAVE
- CHILDREN OF IMMIGRANTS.
- 9:04
- DONALD TRUMP IS MARRIED TO AN
- IMMIGRANT AS WELL AS JD VANCE.
- YOUR CHILDREN ARE CHILDREN OF
- IMMIGRANTS, AND YOU ARE GOING
- OUT AND ATTACKING OTHER
- IMMIGRANTS EVERY CHANCE YOU GET
- . AGAIN, IT COMES DOWN TO BASIC
- DECENCY IN THIS COUNTRY.
- I THINK THE REASON YOU SEE THE
- POLLING NUMBERS YOU SEE AND I
- WHAT IS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE
- WAKING UP THAT WE CAN'T LIVE KI
- THIS WAY.
- THIS CAN'T BE THE GUY SUPPOSED
- TO PROTECT US WHEN IT COMES TO
- PEOPLE COMING OUT AGAINST US.
- THIS IS THE SAME GUY THAT
- COULDN'T SAY ON THE DEBATE
- STAGE HE WANTED TO HAVE UKRAINE
- WIN.
- HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHO OUR
- FRIENDS ARE AND DOESN'T
- UNDERSTAND WHO WE D ARE AS A
- NATION WHICH WE ARE A COUNTRY TI
- OF IMMIGRANTS.
- THE DEMONIZATION OF ANY GROUP
- OF PEOPLE, WHETHER IT IS BLACK
- FOLK AND SAYING, YOU KNOW WHAT?
- WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT
- OFFICERS HAVE IMMUNITY TO GO
- AHEAD AND KILL THEM CRIMINALLY
- OR WHETHER WE TALK ABOUT THOSE W
- HE SAYS, ALL OF THE HISPANICS
- COMING IN, THEY WILL RAPE YOUR
- CHILDREN.
- THE PROBLEM ISN'T THE PEOPLE
- COMING IN BUT THIS GUY AND HIS
- 10:07
- PEOPLE HERE DOING THE BOMB
- THREATS THROUGHOUT OUR COUNTRY
- AND DOMESTIC TERRORISM IS A
- REAL THING.
- HE IS THE GUY WHO TSTARTS IT.
- >> THIS IS VERY MUCH AN
- AMERICAN STORY, THE CITY OF
- SPRINGFIELD, OHIO.
- PEOPLE FORGET THAT.
- THEY NEED PEOPLE TO DO JOBS AND
- BROUGHT PEOPLE IN AND THEY
- ASKED HAITIAN IMMIGRANTS TO
- COME TO THIS TOWN TO DO THESE
- JOBS AND MORE TO SAY ON THAT
- BUT I WANT TO START TALKING
- MORE.
- GEORGE, YOU ARE GOOD AT GETTING
- INTO THE MIND OF DONALD TRUMP. O
- WHAT STRUCK ME ABOUT HIS
- BEHAVIOR IS IT FEELS TO ME
- LIKE, YES, SOCIOPATHIC BEHAVIOR
- TO QUOTE YOU, BUT ALSO
- DESPERATION.
- IT FEELS LIKE DESPERATION WHEN
- HE FEELS UNDER ATTACK, WHEN HE Q
- IS BEHIND.
- HE BEHAVES THIS WAY.
- HOW HAS THAT STRUCK YOU IN THIS
- REGARD ABOUT WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT
- HIS MENTAL STATE?
- 11:00
- >> HE IS REACHING HIS FINAL
- DESTINATION, WHICH IS COMPLETE
- DECOMPOSITION AND
- DECOMPENSATION.
- NONE OF HIS TRICKS ARE WORKING
- ANYMORE.
- WE ARE ON TO THEM.
- THEY DON'T EXCITE ANYBODY
- ANYMORE.
- HE IS LOSING IN THE POLLS.
- HE HAS TO TRY TO MAKE THINGS UP
- IN HIS OWN VICE PRESIDENTIAL
- CANDIDATE BASICALLY SAID WE ARE
- MAKING UP STORIES TO WIN THIS
- ELECTION.
- IT ISN'T WORKING FOR HIM. HE
- KNOWS IT AND HE KNOWS HE IS
- GOING DOWN.
- THE MORE HE FEELS HE IS GOING
- DOWN -- REMEMBER, HE IS NOT WN
- RUNNING JUST FOR PRESIDENT BUT
- RUNNING FROM PRISON AND YOU
- WILL SEE HIM ENGAGE IN MORE
- DESPERATE BEHAVIOR AND THAT IS
- WHAT YOU SEE WITH I HATE TAYLOR
- SWIFT.
- HE IS LASHING OUT AND HIS
- PEOPLE HAVE LOST CONTROL.
- THE ONLY PERSON WHO SEEMS TO E
- HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER HIM AS VE
- THE PERSON WHO IS TELLING HIM
- OR WHISPERING IN HIS EAR OR
- DOING SOMETHING TO TELL HIM
- THAT EVERYTHING
