You know what's on Donald Trump's mind 14 days to go to the election? Transgender people playing sports against people born women. This seems to be on his mind. How do I know it? Because he was just at the today, a Hispanic, what was supposed to be, it was billed as

Latino Americans for Trump Hispanic roundtable in Miami, which is already going to skew tremendously Republican because of the nature of the Cuban community there and others that have joined and the work that the Republicans have done since Barack Obama won the state twice to convert people to their brand of being Republican. Now we'll talk about, and he's in the safe confines of a hall that's inside of a city that has a very close relationship with his own golf course, which is also named Doral. So this was not going into the belly of the beast by any means. So he's got this captive audience, right? Latino Americans for Trump, or as I saw in a recent Cywell roll here, no Americans for Trump. That's what it looked like on the mobile version when I watched it.

I sort of agreed with that. It caught my interest. Then I realized that was just sort of a cropping, editing typo. Now, during this speech that you would have thought could have focused on a lot of things, raising up the Hispanic community, the Latino community, and helping them with business loans and immigration policy issues and have a more dignified and humane immigration policy from the countries that they came from. Most of them do not share a border with the United States. There are some Mexicans in Miami, of course, but it's Argentinian and Venezuelan and Brazilian and Cuban make up the vast majority.

70% of Miami-Dade County is Hispanic and 50% or more of that is Cuban American, which has always since the Cuban Missile Crisis, the 1960s is Republican, died in the wool, died red Republican, even before MAGA. So for those out there in America and globally who watch us, who are thinking, that's weird. These are Hispanic Republicans? I mean, there are some, but overall in the country, 70% of Hispanics are Democrats or

Progressives. But of that 30%, the bulk of that comes from this Miami community that Donald Trump has run up. And so he thinks in this community that's there to support him. Maybe religious issues, maybe reproductive rights issues, maybe issues related to the small business community, things like that. He's got the chairman of Goya Foods. So when your next time you're shopping, think about that. Goya Foods chairman and owner, big supporter of Donald Trump, and you got a guy there who's, all right, I'll give him credit, successfully, apparently, owns a lot of oil and gas companies and or gas stations.

And that sort of pulled Donald Trump because he was so exhausted and fatigued that all he did was keep pointing out to the gas station guy and to the Goya beans guy instead of getting down to policy and things that mattered. He so wandered off into some weird world that even the moderator was like, all right, well, there's any questions. He spent the bulk of his time, I did the math, talking about two things. People who want to take their gender identity and get surgery

to align it with their thought of who they are and use that as a negative. And then about energy policy, which I mean is interesting, but Florida doesn't have oil fields. I know there's issues with solar and wind, but this should not have been the dominant feature of his speech. Let me roll the clip first of him talking about a man apparently apparently, who became a woman. And then he said, congratulations, and talked about a volleyball game. This will give you a little bit of an audit of what being in the room with him today was like.

Let's roll the clip. And as you know, there are 15 different elements of policy that she changed. She was in favor of sex changes for prisoners at their will, paid for by the government. And now she says, no, I don't think that would be a good idea. She was totally, I mean, when you talk about fracking, she's had no fracking under, I mean, we have 25 commercials. We put, sometimes we put them on simultaneously.

She's just, and now all of a sudden... I love Fracken. I think it's wonderful. Although today, though, it came out, they had a bad thing come out today. One of her people said she's essentially against Fracken. And it's very interesting when that came out. It was sort of a big story. One of her top people said that, Carlos, has anyone come up to you and say, we insist on having men play in women's sports?

I saw a volleyball match this weekend where a man who transitioned, this is the way I'm very politically correct now, because you lose your whole... You lose in politics if you say slightly off, a man who transitioned into, congratulations, a woman, hit a ball. He was like four feet up in the air. He smashed a ball so hard that these young ladies that were all top players,

they said, we've never seen anything that hit her in the head. And people have been very badly hurt in that sport and in other sports. Swimming the records is ridiculous. The records are being broken by numbers that nobody's even thought possible. The greatest is weightlifting. You see weightlifting records. Take a look at some of these records where a record that stood for 18 years and they put an eighth of an ounce and an eighth of an ounce and it said...

And these guys are walking in and breaking it. It's so sick that you actually say they hate our country. But think, has anybody has anybody approached you and say, we want to really fight hard so that men can play in women's sports? I don't think so. So now you might be thinking, and the rest of the people in the room, you don't hear clapping. You don't hear cheering. You just see a lot of wide-eyed people like, what are we doing here? I mean, that's what happens at most of his rallies. He gets about 10, 12 minutes in and then just wanders off into some weird stew of his mind and takes the audience with

him until they get tired and they leave because Cause they're like, how is this? I mean, I get that they want to support him and that's okay group. This is first amendment. You want to support somebody, that's fine. But do it for the right reasons. So let's roll, we'll just roll a best of, of him talking about for no reason, no good reason,

except in the room was a Latin owner of gas stations. And then this became a off the cuff discussion of Donald Trump about energy policy, about electric cars, about wind and about solar. Let's run the best of clips. They went into a situation where they were putting windmills all over the place and the wind wasn't blowing so much.

And if they kept that process going, Germany would right now be bust. That's one, I guess, one of the primary reasons that Angela is not there anymore. They tried it. They had solar. He wants to go all electric. And all electric cars, you know, they want to have all electric cars. And they're wonderful. You know, I think they're great. They have an application, but we want gasoline propelled cars. We want hybrids.

We don't want hydrogen max because they blow up and you are no longer recognizable. Max, this guy owns more gas stations than any guy. He owns so many gas stations, he doesn't know what to do with it. All right. Then he finally turned at some point to talking about his other favorite to scare the crap out of people to vote for him, which is immigration policy. Rather than talk about if I'm elected,

I will create a dignified humane immigration policy that's eluded the American people from both sides of the aisle for the last 50 or 60 years. And that will be my mission. That will be my big thing when I get into office. No, it's always about this country's going down the drain. This country is in vast decline. Everybody laughs at us.

And we've got criminals being led out of mental asylums, mental hospitals, and the Congo, because why not scare people with the image of a black murderer from another country coming into this country and elect me because the other person's low IQ. Let's roll all of those crazy clips about his view of immigration,

this dystopic view of immigration policy. Let's roll that. They've allowed our country to be destroyed. They're allowing thousands of murderers and drug dealers and terrorists and people from mental institutions. They're emptying out their jails into our country. They're emptying out their jails. And by the way, their crime rates all over the world are going down.

They have many people now coming from the Congo and Africa. It's not just, you think about South America, they're emptying out their jails in the Congo, and they're delivering them to the border, and they're saying, congratulations, here's America. And we have 21 million people at least over the last little while. And if they got in, they're gonna have open borders,

100%, just like they tried to trick everybody. They said they tried to tighten it up a little bit just to make it because they have an election coming up. It didn't work much, but they forgot to tell you that they continue to fly big, beautiful Boeing jets over the right over the border with hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants landing in the Midwest and other places. They forgot to stop those planes coming in. They thought they were going to put a little bit of a show on in the border and they could show something.

They didn't do it. I think it's the single biggest problem because our country is loaded up right now with murders. You bring up something that people don't talk about, the press doesn't talk about. I think if it were on the other side, it would be one of the great scandals in history. It's actually 325,000 children are missing, sex slaves, slaves, or dead.

One of those four things, slaves, sex slaves, slaves or dead. One of those four things. Slaves, sex slaves, missing or dead. And think of what 325,000, you know, we say it as the number of blah, blah, blah. Stuck into a reporter before I said 325,000. Oh, what else is now? He's going like, let's go to the next question. I'm saying to myself, can you believe it? A bad sort of a reporter, I tell them he is.

But think of it almost like, you know, let's get on with the interview. Think of what 325,000, we have religious leaders up here, think of what 325,000, how many times can you fill a nice big stadium like a Yankee stadium with that 325,000. How many times can you fill a nice big stadium like a Yankee stadium with that 325,000? They're missing.

I think many of them are dead. Most of them possibly are dead. It's so sad. Our country is so sad. And then you wake up to the news that we've given the entire Israeli game plan to the enemy. Who could imagine this? Who could imagine this? I would say Israel's not too happy about that, right? Okay. Now, so you've got mental institutions and immigration policy mixed together almost in the same breath with solar and wind and energy policy mixed together with transgender people

and athletes playing against women and apparently hitting the ball very hard. I'm so excited to share with you guys an incredible scientific breakthrough to support our long-term health and wellness. C15 is the first essential fatty acid to be discovered in 90 years. And get this, studies have confirmed that it's three times better, broader, and safer

than omega-3. It's pretty simple. Essential nutrients keep our cells healthy, which keeps us healthy. If you want to get sciency about it, studies show that C15 works by strengthening our cells, improving our mitochondrial function, and protecting us against damaging free radicals. The result? Better long-term metabolic liver and heart health.

It turns out many of us are deficient in C15, which results in weaker cells that make less energy and quit working earlier than they should. All of that makes us age faster, sleep poorly, feel sluggish. Is this sounding familiar? Fatty 15 is a Science-Fact Award-winning vegan and pure C15 supplement. By replenishing our cells with that essential C15 nutrient, Fatty 15 effectively repairs cells

and restores our long-term health. Go science! Fatty 15 is made from a patented, pure, and oxidation-resistant C15 powder. Derived from plants, it's vegan-friendly, free of flavors, fillers, allergens, or preservatives. C15 is the only ingredient in fatty 15, 100% pure. C15 works in multiple ways.

It repairs age-related damage to cells, protects them from future breakdown, boost mitochondrial energy output, and activates pathways in the body that help regulate our sleep, mood, and natural repair mechanisms that support our overall health. This functionality leads to a myriad of exciting benefits

now and as we get older, namely improved metabolic liver and heart health, smoother functioning joints, deeper sleep, and healthier hair and skin and nails. Now that's essential. It comes in a gorgeous reusable glass bamboo jar, and refill capsules are shipped to your door quarterly in pouches made from recycled materials. Fatty15 is on a mission to replenish our C15 levels and restore your long-term health. You can get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription starter kit

We just came off of a weekend where Donald Trump had so few things to say out loud that this entered the transom of his mind a comment about Arnold Palmer The legendary golfer being apparently so well endowed that other golfers in the shower Marveled at it. I mean, how is this inappropriate? marveled at it. I mean, how is this an appropriate,

he's always talking about the size of something, the size of the crowds at his fill in the blank, the size of his, you know what, the size of his manhood, the size of his hands, the size of somebody else's manhood. I really don't get it. How is this attractive or appealing? I mean, I get that there's a group of people

in this country that are gonna vote for Donald Trump. I'm not an idiot. I know that there's, and it people in this country that are gonna vote for Donald Trump. I'm not an idiot. I know that there's, and it's in the tens of millions of people. And whether he gets 46% or 47% or 48% or 49%, as long as he stops there, we're all fine. But how has he been making, somebody explain this to me and put it in the comments.

How has he been making any new votes for him from the independent or taking Biden votes and making them Trump votes? How has he been doing that exactly? I see how Kamala Harris has been reaching across the aisle and she's doing apparently according to polling exceedingly well, exceedingly well at converting Biden voters that had left

and were considering going to Trump, she's got him back voting for Harris. I get that. Or had left and voted for Trump in 2016, she's got him back. But no one, leave a comment, I wanna read it, I wanna hear it. How is he manufacturing new votes?

I mean, his MAGA, his red, the ones that he scares the crap out of can only vote once. You need more than that to overcome an 80 million vote gap by Joe Biden, right? And to overcome the gaps needed in the battleground states, you just do. And instead, this out Latin outreach today got so unhinged that the God love them, the Hispanics and Latins in the room had to take it over and make it into a prayer

session and hold hands and pray and treat him like he is the second coming. And at one point, somebody said, one of the leaders up there said, and God took his hand and turned it so that he survived Butler, Pennsylvania, Donald Trump, and then prayed for him to win like God has a stake in having Donald Trump prevail. Let's run the clip of the end of the prayer session. This is not a war between the left and the right. This is a war between good and evil. So we can't combat that. We can't fight that in the natural. We need spiritual weapons to fight it. So prayer is one of them and I believe President Trump is here because

there's a purpose, there's a higher assignment for him to finish with this nation. So we're gonna pray, prayer, the Bible says that let's pray for the will of God to come. Meaning, what's the will of God? The Bible says God sets up kings, he removes kings. We're gonna pray for the will of God for him to be the next 47 presidents. Do you believe that? I want you to stretch your hands toward him. That was just a cover because for an hour and a half, Donald Trump made no sense. And it was just a wallpaper over. What we're watching is the incredibly shrinking Donald Trump as a candidate, as a person, becoming more unhinged, untethered to reality, more exhausted.

Whereas you have Kamala Harris, you know, in sneakers and no sneakers, running around in every battleground state, pitching a tent and asking and earning your vote. And while Donald Trump tries every trick in the book in order to try to avoid being prosecuted any further by the criminal justice system, that's all we're watching. He has no interest whatsoever at really serving as the president of the United States. All he wants is for you as a voter to give him a boost so that he can get to the tree first before special counsel

Jack Smith and claim that, you know, like a game of tag or hide and seek that he's safe on the tree. He gets into the presidency, he's going to dismiss all the prosecutions that are federal against him. He may start jailing people based on his own comments and threats, and he's gonna pardon the rest. And that's the only reason he's running. And the only reason the Federalist Society

and the MAGA that are inside the shadow government in exile, these various think tanks and institutes like the Heritage Foundation, which is just a front for about a dozen other organizations that are the true levers of power for the Republicans, all run through Leonard Leo and other shadowy figures and donors you've never heard of and we'll do more reporting on. They don't care about him. He's a meat puppet for them. He just wants them to get it. They just have mutual interests. They want him to get elected

because they know he'll hold the door open and let them all in to the administration and fill 5,000 civil servant jobs and every cabinet position top to bottom. And that will affect the next 20 years of our life. And they just want to make sure that the federal courts are firmly made into the Trump and their image. And that the Supreme Court for the next two

generations, the next 20 years, becomes right-wing conservative and then they can sleep at night. The rest of us won't be able to sleep at all, but then they'll be able to sleep at night. And so I wanted to use the Hispanic, sort of got my dander up because I know this group well, I've worked well with this group of Hispanic Americans, Latino Americans in Miami, count many of them to be my got my dander up because I know this group well. I've worked well with this group of Hispanic Americans, Latino Americans in Miami. Many of them to be my friends. I knew a lot of the people he shouted out to, Mayor Frank Suarez. All right, Francis Suarez. I know you. I see you. But I wanted people outside of Miami to understand the Miami Latino community and how it's subdivided and divided and how right-wing it has

always been since the 1960s as they abandoned the Democrats in Kennedy after the Cuban Missile Crisis. And then they brought these other new groups along with them, scaring the crap out of them, telling them that Democrats are socialists, that Democrats are Marxists, our Democrats are going to be dictators. That's why you hear this rhetoric. That's Donald Trump sending a love note to all of these groups whenever he says fascist and he says Marxist and he says socialist. By the way, those are different things. Which one? Which one is it? But to them, that's what we left. That's what we left in our home countries. There's also this kind of nostalgia for dictatorship that comes from some people when they come to this country.

They miss the strong man. Oh, he's a strong man, must vote for him. He's God's choice, must vote for him. Right? There's an old saying that Bill Clinton used to repeat, which is it's better to be wrong and strong than weak and right. And this group likes wrong and strong.

And they find that appealing. And that's why you've got to work around them in voting in Florida. You've got to run up the vote totals in South Florida to overcome the natural Miami tendency to vote Republican and then run all that up. Kamala, let me make it clear to people who don't know Florida politics. Having lived there, having worked in it, been drank the water, drank the cortadito,

I mean, I know it. Kamala Harris has to overperform in Palm Beach, Broward and Dade County to offset the rest of the state which goes heavy red. From the panhandle down, the only other strip of blue ends up hopefully being the Hispanic dominated I-4 corridor through Orlando, which is more Mexican American and Puerto Rican American, which tends to go Democrat.

That's it. She's got to run it up down here so that she can overcome Donald Trump winning a lot of Florida, the red counties, including in that panhandle leading out to Alabama and down, you know, what we call North Georgia. You know, there's an old joke about Florida. The more South you go, the more north you are because of all the

Immigration, especially after kovat of northerners coming down and settling in South, Florida Whereas North Florida is like southern, Georgia and we got our hands full of Georgia, too Continue to follow it break it down for you right here with my expertise on Legal AF and on the Midas Touch Network and our new channel Legal AF on the YouTube at Legal AF MTN.
