"Happened To Turn Black" is such a stunning line that it's overshadowing the other stupid stuff Trump said on Wednesday.

1
00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:09.800
Calaroga Shark Media from Washington, DC, where Trump found a

2
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:12.359
way to get people to stop making fun of jd Vance.

3
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:14.519
This is ballad. That's right.

4
00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:17.039
You'd think that making fun of sleeping with a couch

5
00:00:17.079 --> 00:00:19.760
would be worth a week of jokes, but Trump decided

6
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:23.519
to say at least five ridiculous things yesterday. So let's

7
00:00:23.559 --> 00:00:27.280
hit this good morning in case you missed it. When

8
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:31.000
asked yesterday about Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump claimed Harris

9
00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:34.880
happened to turn black and was only promoting Indian heritage

10
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:38.880
before we covered that in an episode we dropped yesterday afternoon.

11
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:40.679
If you want to go back and grab that episode.

12
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.280
The La Times asks the question Trump offended his black

13
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:49.119
audience mistake or part of the plan. Well, folks, buckle up,

14
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:51.799
because the twenty twenty four election train is barreling down

15
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.200
the tracks, and it seems like everyone's fighting for the

16
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:57.039
conductor's seat, or at least for the microphone in the

17
00:00:57.079 --> 00:01:00.200
dining car. Let's just say it was about as smooth

18
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:03.039
with is a cactus in a sandstorm. But as Doug Haya,

19
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:06.719
former RNC spokesperson, put it, the media is going to

20
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:09.040
go into overdrive over the next twenty four hours of

21
00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:12.000
all the bombshells from this interview, as it has every

22
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:14.599
other time, Trump the matador, waves the red cape, and

23
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:18.879
the media follows. Ah, Yes, the old There's no such

24
00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:21.959
thing as bad publicity strategy. And let's not forget the

25
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.799
linguistic gymnastics on display. Trump's been calling Harris crazy and nuts,

26
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.840
while Louisiana Senator John Kennedy decided to go full playground

27
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:33.560
and call her a ding dong. I haven't heard name

28
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:36.959
calling this creative since third grade recess. At a rally

29
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.439
in Pennsylvania, Trump decided to go full mean girls on Harris.

30
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.519
Don't forget four weeks ago she was considered like the

31
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:48.680
worst and that she had had a personality makeover. All

32
00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:51.040
of a sudden, she's considered the new Margaret Thatcher.

33
00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:52.200
Kamala.

34
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:55.719
Harris, meanwhile, is playing it cool at a sorority event

35
00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:58.159
in Houston, which sounds like the setup for a joke

36
00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:01.000
of its own. She said of Trump's comments, it was

37
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:04.719
the same old show, the divisiveness and the disrespect, and

38
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:08.520
let me just say, the American people deserve better. Now

39
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:12.199
that's what I call a political mic drop. Her husband,

40
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:15.800
Doug m Hoff wasn't quite as diplomatic. He called Trump's

41
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:18.840
remarks a worse version of an already horrible person and

42
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:20.840
added the insults the bs.

43
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.560
It's horrible, it's terrible. It shows a lack of character.

44
00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:25.680
Tell us how you really feel, Doug.

45
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:32.039
Donald Trump has just introduced us to his very own superhero,

46
00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:35.360
the computer genius, who apparently saved his life with the

47
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:42.120
power of PowerPoint picture this. Trump's at a rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania,

48
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.879
waxing poetic about an immigration chart like it's his long

49
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:49.400
lost love. I'm going to sleep with that chart for

50
00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:52.520
the rest of my life, he says. Now, I'm no

51
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:55.520
relationship expert, but I think missus Trump might have some

52
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:57.159
questions about this new bedmatee.

53
00:02:57.560 --> 00:02:59.280
But hey, at least it's not a couch.

54
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.759
Then, in a moment straight out of America's Got Talent

55
00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:06.719
political edition, Trump calls his chart wielding savior to the stage.

56
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:10.919
This shy staffer, this computer genius, walks up, utters a

57
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:14.199
single high and disappears faster than my motivation. On a

58
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:18.599
Monday morning, Trump reveals that this chart, this magical rectangle

59
00:03:18.639 --> 00:03:21.960
of immigration data, is usually on his left side, but

60
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:24.599
on that fateful day, in Butler it was on his right,

61
00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:29.479
and apparently that's what threw off the would be assassin's aim.

62
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:31.800
And just when you think you've heard it all, along

63
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:33.479
comes a moment that makes you want to invent a

64
00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:36.280
time machine just so you can go back and unhear it.

65
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:41.319
Trump was at the rally in Harrisburg talking about Corey Comparatore,

66
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:44.639
the brave former fire chief who tragically lost his life

67
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:49.960
protecting others during the assassination attempt on Trump a somber moment. Right, well,

68
00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:52.400
hold onto your hats, because Trump's about to take us

69
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:55.400
on a wild ride. He starts off okay, mentioning a

70
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:58.840
generous donation to the widow, But then, faster than you

71
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.360
can say inappropriate, Trump drops this gem.

72
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:05.680
Corey's wife said, I'd rather have my husband. Isn't that good?

73
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:08.319
I know a lot of wives that would not say that.

74
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:11.120
I'm sorry they would not say that. Now.

75
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:14.520
I'm no expert in consoling grieving families, but I'm pretty

76
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:17.439
sure your dead husband was better than a million bucks,

77
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:20.920
unlike some wives I know, isn't. In the sympathy cardisle

78
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:26.800
at Hallmark, and the crowd they laughed, They actually laughed.

79
00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:29.199
It's like they were at a comedy club instead of

80
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.720
discussing a hero's tragic death. I haven't seen an audience

81
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.480
this confused about when to laugh, since well since the

82
00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:39.600
last time Trump spoke at a rally. Trump then tries

83
00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:42.720
to salvage the moment by calling Comparatour a great man

84
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:45.680
and a brave man, which you know is nice. It's

85
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:48.519
just a shame it came after essentially saying, hey, at

86
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:50.120
least his wife isn't a gold digger.

87
00:04:50.680 --> 00:04:52.319
The most incredible part of the story.

88
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:59.399
It wasn't even the stupidest thing Trump said all day. Well, folks,

89
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:02.600
it looks like Ted NuGen the self proclaimed defiant middle

90
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:05.519
fingers are of the USA, has decided to give us

91
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:07.800
all a piece of his mind. And let me tell you,

92
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:09.759
it's about as subtle as a cat in a room

93
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:10.759
full of rocking chairs.

94
00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:12.480
So Nugent shared.

95
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:15.720
What he calls a PSA to America on YouTube. Now,

96
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.360
when I think of PSAs, I usually think of Smoky

97
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:21.160
the Bear or McGruff the crime dog, not a seventy

98
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:23.360
five year old rocker telling us he could have wrote

99
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:24.079
the constitution.

100
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:26.959
Sure, but how would the grammar be? But hey, who

101
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:27.839
am I to judge?

102
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:30.480
Maybe the founding fathers just needed a sick guitar riff.

103
00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:34.160
Nugent says voting for Trump is common sense, you know,

104
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:37.040
like wearing socks with sandals or putting pineapple on pizza.

105
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:40.720
He describes himself as a heart and soul asset to America.

106
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.040
I'm not entirely sure what that means, but it sounds

107
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:46.279
like something you'd find on a motivational poster and a

108
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:47.240
dentist's office.

109
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:49.160
But wait, there's more.

110
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:52.680
NuGen claims everybody around the world is looking at America

111
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:56.079
now and going, oh my god, what have you done well?

112
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:56.360
Ted.

113
00:05:56.759 --> 00:05:58.600
I hate to break it to you, but I'm pretty

114
00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:03.120
sure that's been happening since we spray cheese. It's another

115
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:06.240
day in Crazytown where the mayor is my ex girlfriend Norma.

116
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:09.480
But Trump eats up all the media coverage. You'd think

117
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:12.040
for a political podcast, we'd mentioned Joe Biden once in

118
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:13.720
a while, remember him.

119
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:17.720
He doesn't either. Portions of today's program were made.

120
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:20.800
With the help of AI Oh and to the guy

121
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:23.240
who left a review saying we're soft on Republicans.

122
00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:24.639
