Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown
of Muslims entering the United States.
Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners,
when somebody disrespects our flag,
to say, get that son of a bitch off the field right now.
Out. He's fired.
He's fired!
Please step up to the congregation.
Yes, you are a W.
When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best.
They're bringing drugs.
They're bringing crime.
They're raping.
These are jackass.
Hey, man, I'm just here to piss MAGA off.
Don't care.
The day for Monday, November 4th goes to the 45th president of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump.
Tomorrow is election day.
And, you know,
I will never lie to you
and tell you that
who you vote for
will solve all your problems.
That is just not true.
That is just not accurate.
But who you vote for
can make your life
a little bit better
or it can make it a lot worse.
And I don't know about y'all,
but I'm tired of the country
flirting with fascism.
Okay, we at some point
have to realize
the nuclear weapons
that we are playing with.
I started to say fire, but we're not playing playing with fire we're playing with something a lot worse
and i don't understand why so many of us can't see how this man donald trump just continues to
play in our face i will never understand why republicans chose this man to represent them
again it's mind-boggling to me i mean damn near any conservative could have represented the gop
better than this but instead they continue to prop
up the most divisive president in American history I really have asked myself what is God
trying to show America through Donald J Trump and I really believe in my heart of hearts that he is
just a reflection of so many people in systems in this country just a whole outdated way of thinking
all together it is my sole belief that Donald J Trump is the Frankenstein monster of white supremacy okay white people don't even know what to do with Trump this is my sole belief that donald j trump is the frankenstein monster of
white supremacy okay white people don't even know what to do with trump this is what happens when
that privilege and power goes unchecked it eventually cannibalizes cannibalizes the very
system that created it okay that's another story let's get back to why trump is getting donkey of
the day to date okay over the weekend he made a couple of statements that would be disqualifying
for anyone else but not trump by the way i don't even know what disqualifying means anymore because there is no real qualifications to be president
and trump has shown me there is nothing you can do to not be able to run for president either
but this weekend trump said two things uh first one when folks like myself would say if people
uh when folks like myself would say what he said people would say I was overreacting and I was talking crazy.
But I always said, Trump isn't leaving the White House if he loses in 2020.
He damn sure tried not to leave by leading an attempted coup in this country.
But this weekend, he said the quiet part out loud. Let's listen.
On the last Sunday rally before Election Day.
We had the safest border in the history of our country the day that I left. I shouldn't have left. Former President Donald Trump
told a crowd of supporters that he shouldn't have left the White House
after the 2020 election and took an aggressive jab at the media while
describing the protective glass around his podium on stage. I have this piece
of glass here but all we have really over here is the fake news.
And to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news.
And I don't mind that so much.
Trump's campaign quickly put out a statement after the Lancaster rally,
saying in part the president's comments weren't about the press,
but instead about his own personal safety in light of two assassination attempts against him earlier this year.
A lot to unpack there.
Eddie, isolate the second part for me about the media.
I want to come back to that.
I want to talk about the first part of what he said.
Now, maybe he meant he shouldn't have left as in voters shouldn't have voted him out but when you look at the fact he
tried to stage an attempted coup on january 6th uh 2021 and you look at the fact now that he's
projecting and by projecting saying how democrats are going to steal the election even though the
only people currently doing everything they can to suppress the vote is the Republicans. All right. They are already purging voters and trying to restrict the 2024 U.S. election vote in Georgia.
They are suing to block hand returned mail ballots.
They just lost two back to back lawsuits in North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
Republicans were challenging voter registration procedures.
They are the ones trying to manipulate the election.
But we will get to that after Tuesday because it's going to be a lot of that after tuesday trust me because donald trump
is not going to accept the results of this year's election just like he didn't accept him in 2020
it's just this time it'll be a lot worse but i will say nobody will ever deprive the american
people of the right to vote except the american people themselves and the only way they could do
this is by not voting you know who said that fdr okay now the other reason trump is getting
donkier today is simply because he said he doesn't mind reporters getting shot at you just heard it
the man has already said he wants to jail journalists uh he's suing cbs right now for
10 billion dollars the man once sued bill maher in 2022 at a rally. He said that
if reporters don't reveal their sources, he will put them in prison until they do.
And now he said he don't mind if reporters get shot at, listen.
I have a piece of glass over here, and I don't have a piece of glass there.
And I have this piece of glass here.
But all we have really over here is the fake news, right?
And to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news.
And I don't mind that so much.
I don't mind.
I don't mind that.
Trump's campaign spokesperson said the president's comments weren't about the press,
but instead about his own personal safety in light of his two assassination attempts. The president's statement about protective glass placement
has nothing to do with the media being harmed or anything else.
It was about threats against him that were spurred on
by a dangerous rhetoric from Democrats.
President Trump was stating that the media was in danger
and that they were protecting him and therefore were in great danger themselves
and should have had a glass protective shield also.
The man said, to get to me, they would have to shoot through the press but I don't mind that
right but yet his campaign said he was stating that the media was in danger
yeah they in danger because you putting them in danger by encouraging people to
shoot through them if they want to shoot at you this is the type of playing in
our face that I'm over okay nothing to see here folks i'm tired of flirting with fascism doing this dance
with authoritarian rule y'all not tired we keep talking about all this violent divisive rhetoric
coming from politicians but it's only coming from one person and then you have everybody telling the
truth about that one person now my favorite thing about these comments is how trump supporters right
now right now as they listening to me they are playing games of Twista by themselves, trying to justify why he said what
he said. That's why I'm not talking to them. Okay. I want to talk to us. What are we doing tomorrow?
Abraham Lincoln once said elections belong to the people. It's their decision. Sadly,
it's up to us to stop all of this. Okay. Personally, I don't think you stop dictatorship
through votes, but since Merrick
Garland and the DOJ didn't do what they were supposed
to do a long time ago, here we are.
Okay, Naomi Klein
once said, democracy is not just
the right to vote, it is the right
to live in dignity.
Tomorrow, we get to
show the world if we are indeed
a dignified country.
Are not? Please donald trump the
biggest hee haw we shall see that's the same thing he did with january 6 he said all that stuff and
it was like i don't know why that happened i didn't say it like that it's unbelievable and
then people died and then the man literally said he wouldn't mind if people shot through the reporters to get to him.
And then his campaign, people said, well, that's not what he said.
I guess if we didn't hear what he actually said.
Right.
All right.
Well, thank you for that donkey today.
