1
00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:08.359
Callaroga shark media from.

2
00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:11.240
The Democratic National Convention in Chicago, where tan suits are

3
00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:13.279
all the rage. This is ballot, that's right.

4
00:00:13.800 --> 00:00:15.800
I busted out my tan suit last night. And let's

5
00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:18.679
just say three words. Hotti's for Harris. Let's hit this.

6
00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:20.800
You know it's a truth.

7
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:24.039
Universally acknowledge that if you're a woman in politics, your

8
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:27.160
wardrobe will be analyzed more thoroughly than a reality TV

9
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:30.960
stars Instagram feed. And Kamala Harris just proved she's not

10
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:33.880
immune to the fashion police, or let's be honest, the

11
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:37.520
fashion paparazzi. So, Kamala shows up at the Democratic National

12
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:40.920
Convention in a tan suit. Yes you heard that right,

13
00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:43.640
not just any tan suit, but a suit that's giving

14
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:46.840
us all flashbacks to Barack Obama's infamous tan suit drama.

15
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:50.880
Remember that Republicans lost their collective minds like he'd shown

16
00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:53.159
up in a Hawaiian shirt and flip flops to discuss

17
00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:53.799
the economy.

18
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.439
Unpresidential, they cried.

19
00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:01.000
Peter King basically clutched his pearls, saying, I don't think

20
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:03.439
any of us can excuse what the president did yesterday.

21
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:07.519
You'd think Obama had declared war on Thanksgiving, but back

22
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:11.280
to Kamala. Was this a masterstroke of trolling or did

23
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:13.319
she just not get the memo that tan suits are

24
00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:17.560
apparently the devil's work. Some folks on x formerly known

25
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:20.560
as the Place where Rational Discourse goes to Die, were

26
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:24.480
quick to speculate. Hashtag tan suits started trending like it

27
00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:28.040
was twenty fourteen all over again. Maybe Kamala was just

28
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:32.280
off duty pulling a casual Reagan move. Yeah, Ronald Reagan,

29
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:35.040
who rocked tan suits like he was auditioning for mad

30
00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:37.799
Men and apparently didn't give a flying fig what Fox

31
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:40.959
News thought. But Kamala is no stranger to sending messages

32
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:44.079
through her wardrobe, whether it's nodding to her sorority with

33
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:46.719
pearls on the cover of Vogue or turning a pair

34
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:48.560
of Converse into a fashion statement.

35
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:50.400
She knows how to work an outfit.

36
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:53.879
And let's not forget the Harris Waltz merch, a hunting

37
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:56.239
cap that raised a cool million bucks in a matter

38
00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.120
of hours, because nothing says I'm your next president like

39
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:03.040
a stylish cap that says I can out fundraise your

40
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:06.560
Maga hat any day. So while Republicans have yet to

41
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:08.960
take the bait on this tan suit. You've got to

42
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:11.680
wonder if they're just waiting for the perfect moment to

43
00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:16.400
declare it the end of American civilization as we know it. Meanwhile,

44
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:21.800
Kamala's just over here looking sharp, collecting campaign dollars and

45
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:25.360
probably laughing her head off at all the fuss, because

46
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:29.080
if there's one thing we've learned, it's that nothing screams.

47
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:35.080
I've got this like a well tailored tan suit. Joe Biden,

48
00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:39.240
remember him. Don't worry, he doesn't either. Well, folks, In

49
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:41.879
the grand finale of Joe Biden's career, the man who's

50
00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:44.599
been saying I'm gonna retire for about as long as

51
00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:48.240
we've all been pretending to eat Kale found himself ironically

52
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:49.439
past his bedtime.

53
00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:53.439
On the East Coast. You can almost hear the grumbling America.

54
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:56.439
I gave my best to you, Biden said, and in return,

55
00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:58.159
you gave me the eleven PM slot.

56
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:00.479
Thanks a lot, but hey.

57
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:03.240
While Joe was busy closing up shop with a speech

58
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:05.400
that should have come with its own dose of melatonin,

59
00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:09.400
the Democrats were busy ushering in the new guard. Kamala

60
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:11.919
Harris is the star of this show now, and let's

61
00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:15.039
just say she's not here for Biden's Early Bird special.

62
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:19.719
Her surprise appearance, complete with Beyonce's Freedom blaring in the background,

63
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:22.039
was like a shot of espresso for the crowd.

64
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:25.360
When we fight, we win, she declared.

65
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:28.599
As the crowd, fully caffeinated, echoed back with enough energy

66
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.240
to power a small city. And then there was Hillary

67
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:34.680
Clinton dropping in to remind us all that the future

68
00:03:34.840 --> 00:03:37.800
is here, as if she didn't spend the last decade

69
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:40.479
being that friend who just won't stop talking about the

70
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:41.479
time they almost.

71
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:42.039
Won the big game.

72
00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:45.280
But we get it, Hills. If anyone knows about the

73
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:49.360
glass ceiling, it's you. And let's be honest, she's probably

74
00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.159
still finding shards of it in her hair. But this

75
00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:55.599
wasn't just the Kamala and Hillary show. The Dems rolled

76
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:58.240
out a lineup so diverse it looked like the cast

77
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:02.199
of a progressive Netflix series. AOC had the crowd chanting

78
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:05.360
her initials like she's a pop star, while Mayor Karen

79
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:08.000
Bass reminded us that she and Kamala go way back

80
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:11.520
before TikTok was even a thing. Labor was there too,

81
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.039
with UAW President Sean Fain rocking a red T shirt

82
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:20.639
that read Trump's a scab subtlety never heard of her. Finally,

83
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.160
Steve Kerr, fresh off an Olympic gold medal win, took

84
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:26.600
the stage to give Kamala Harris a coach's pep talk.

85
00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:29.000
He also gave a shout out to her running mate,

86
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:32.360
Governor Tim Wallas, who apparently used to coach high school football.

87
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.319
Coach to coach, that guy's awesome, Kerr said, and you

88
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:46.759
could almost see Waltz blushing in the background. In other news,

89
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:50.160
Donald Trump has once again demonstrated his unique way of

90
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:54.040
interpreting reality, or rather creating his own version of it.

91
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:58.279
At a rally in Pennsylvania, he casually asked, why are

92
00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:01.959
we having an election after boasting about an imaginary ninety

93
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:06.120
three percent approval rating. Now, in Trump's world, this might

94
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:08.800
seem like a fair question, but here in the land

95
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:11.879
of logic and democracy, it's downright puzzling.

96
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:13.680
Let's break it down.

97
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:17.560
Trump was lamenting the fact that the Democrats, in his view,

98
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:21.439
didn't go through a proper nominating process before rallying behind

99
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:25.639
Kamala Harris. So naturally, his train of thought led him

100
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:29.079
to question why we're even bothering with elections at all.

101
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:31.879
It's almost as if he thinks polling numbers or in

102
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:35.360
this case, figments of his imagination, should be enough to

103
00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:38.680
declare a winner who needs democracy. When you have numbers,

104
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:43.160
you just made up right. Today's winner of the nice

105
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:47.079
Head Award goes to JD Vance. J d's recent comments

106
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:50.399
on Fox News Sunday, where he compared giving Vice President

107
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:54.560
Kamala Harris control over inflation policy to giving Jeffrey Epstein

108
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:58.160
control over human trafficking policy, have stirred up more than

109
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:02.399
just controversy. Following his remarks, a photo of Donald Trump

110
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:05.720
and Jeffrey Epstein, along with their respective partners at the time,

111
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:10.399
Milania Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell, has resurfaced and is making

112
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:13.680
waves online. The photo, taken at Mara a Lago in

113
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:17.720
two thousand, shows Trump and Epstein's socializing, a reminder of

114
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:21.680
their once close relationship. This image, coupled with the recent

115
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:24.439
news that Trump's campaign may have used a private jet

116
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:28.279
once owned by Epstein, has reignited discussions about Trump's past

117
00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:33.319
associations with the convicted sex offender. The resurfacing of these

118
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:37.519
images has gained significant attention on social media, with one

119
00:06:37.519 --> 00:06:40.639
post receiving over eight hundred thirty one thousand views and

120
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:44.360
twenty eight thousand likes. This has only added fuel to

121
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:47.600
the ongoing debates about the former president's connections to Epstein.

122
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:51.879
Despite Trump's repeated denials of any knowledge of Epstein's criminal

123
00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:54.319
activities and claims of a falling out with him in

124
00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:58.240
the early two thousands, the lingering images and past comments

125
00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:01.800
continue to haunt his public image. That wasn't even the

126
00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:04.600
worst thing Vance did. The worst thing he did was

127
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:07.639
asking for Swiss Vance might want to brush up on

128
00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:10.600
his Philly cheese steak etiquette before his next campaign stop.

129
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.199
The Republican vice presidential nominee found himself in an awkward

130
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:17.439
spot when he asked the staff at Pat's King of

131
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:22.519
Steaks why they didn't serve Swiss cheese on their famous sandwiches. Pat's,

132
00:07:22.920 --> 00:07:26.600
a Philly institution known for its classic cheese steaks, typically

133
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:31.000
offers a choice of American provolone or the quintessential Cheese Whiz,

134
00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:35.120
so when Vance, who doesn't even like Swiss cheese, inquired

135
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:38.279
about it, the response was a polite we don't hate it,

136
00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:39.639
we just don't use it.

137
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:41.439
This little cheese.

138
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:43.720
Mishap harks back to John Carey's two thousand and three

139
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:46.240
campaign blunder when he dared to order a cheese steak

140
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:48.600
with Swiss, a move that might as well have been

141
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:52.240
sacrilege in the city of brotherly Love. Locals didn't take

142
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:55.120
kindly to it back then, and while Vance's gaff didn't

143
00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:57.519
seem to ruffle too many feathers this time around, it

144
00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:59.959
certainly earned him a spot in the cheese steak blooper reel.

145
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:03.040
At least, Vance managed to tip well and share a

146
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:05.879
laugh with the staff, showing he could roll with the punches.

147
00:08:06.199 --> 00:08:09.480
Cheese steak faux pas in all portions of today's program

148
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:11.720
were made with the help of Ai and one provolone

149
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:11.920
wit
