So Fox is continuing to melt down as momentum and energy is with Vice President Kamala Harris. I've never seen Fox in such disarray. They're trying to like help Donald Trump with the talking points. Take a look at this. This is Sean Hannity on his show last night saying, look, don't worry, folks, all of this energy and momentum, it's just the honeymoon period here. Watch this. Now tonight, also the Democratic Party, you need to understand what's happening here. This is Kamala's honeymoon period. She is experiencing a sugar high, a, you know, a feeling of relief and enthusiasm that the guy that can't walk and
Starting point is 00:02:06 talk, that stays and confused, the guy that mumbles and bumbles and stumbles. Oh, thank God it's not him. It's, it's a honeymoon. It's a sugar high, but Mark, my words, it will be short-lived. Then Sean Hannity pivots and says, could you imagine the foreign leaders? They're going to laugh at Kamala Harris because she giggles that that's that's what they're going with, that she she giggles. What are you even talking about here? Play this clip. One thing I can tell you is that, you know, I don't care if it's China, Iran, North Korea, Russia. They never feared Joe Biden. They did fear Donald Trump. They won't fear Kamala Harris. They'll laugh at Kamala Harris
Starting point is 00:02:51 because that's what she does half the time anyway. She giggles away, you know, her time. I don't think they'll take her seriously because I don't think she's a serious person. No, I think the foreign leaders, our allies, laugh at Donald Trump. I think they quite literally laughed at him. I think we actually have footage of Donald Trump speaking at the United Nations where people laughed at him because he was so pathetic
Starting point is 00:03:17 and made the United States look so bad on the world stage. Remember when Trump spoke to the UN and people quite literally laughed at him? Here, play this clip. In less than two years, my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country. America's so true. Didn't expect that reaction, but that's okay. And by the way, while we're on that topic, remember when Donald Trump appointed Ivanka to represent the United States at the G7 and in other kind of foreign conferences? And then Ivanka tried to like get in on the conversations with world leaders.
Starting point is 00:04:03 And they were like, can we get this weirdo family like away from us? Remember this clip play the clip in terms of the whole sort of business. It's been very male dominated. What I like too is that Democrats are now going on Fox and they're pushing back like here is Democratic Congress member Jamie Raskin. He's on there with James Comer and he's just there laughing and mocking James Comer. Magher Republican, I'm James Comer. Here, play this clip. I'll just say, well, I think Chairman Comer did a magnificent job exonerating Joe Biden of all the fraudulent charges that were raised against him in this Congress. And of course, there was no high crime, no misdemeanor. And Joe Biden is a passionate public servant filled with integrity. Nobody's buying that. Nobody's buying what he's selling.
Starting point is 00:05:03 America's buying it. The reservoir of love for Joe Biden is deep and really bottomless in America. You do disagree on a lot of things, as we can point out. Then the MAGA Republicans have to lean into racism because they can't stop themselves. You've got Jesse Waters. And by the way, poor Jesse Waters' mom. Remember when Jesse Waters' mom called in? Jesse Waters' mom's pro-democracy. I hear she's a fan of the Midas Touch Network. And she went on air and basically told Jesse Waters, what are you doing, son? Can you please stop this behavior? Well, here's Jesse Waters saying the only reason Kamala is in is because she's a DEI hire. As racist as you get. Here,
Starting point is 00:05:43 play this clip. The only reason Kamala is in the White House is because of the DEI deal Biden cut with Bernie to seal the nomination. Then Jesse Waters has the excellent idea to bring in Ben Shapiro to the show. Yes, Ben Shapiro, who said that the Barbie movie was going to flop. Ben Shapiro has some great predictions that he makes. He also
Starting point is 00:06:05 said about, well, I won't go there. You know what Ben Shapiro said about his wife. Anyway, here Ben Shapiro says that the reason that young black woman, that this framing of a young black woman against an old white guy, and that she's a prosecutor and a felon, that this is all being manufactured. Here, play this clip. Exactly what do her qualifications look like other than, again, the sort of intersectional magic of Kamala Harris and the fact that Democrats have to manufacture enthusiasm for, I've never seen this much manufactured enthusiasm for anyone outside of maybe Taylor Swift's last album. It's amazing. Me mean, me neither. It's so obvious. You cringe when you see it. Here's Ben Shapiro again. It's so pathetic you're
Starting point is 00:06:52 playing this clip. But I don't know. They like the fact that this is a young black woman squaring off against an old white guy. They like that she's going to all just talk about abortion. And they like the fact that she was a prosecutor and he's a felon. They like that she's going to all just talk about abortion. And they like the fact that she was a prosecutor and he's a felon. They like that framing. By the way, it should be noted as well that J.D. Vance, this was on CNN, is the least popular VP candidate in American history. He has a negative six, negative six point. Here's what they said.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Play the clip. It's a negative net territory. Look at that, negative six point. Here's what they said. Play the clip. It's a negative net territory. Look at that. Negative six points. I will tell you, Aaron, I have gone all the way back since 1980. He is the first guy after immediately following a convention, a VP pick, who actually had a net negative favorable rating. That is underwater.
Starting point is 00:07:41 The average since 2000 is plus 19 points. J.D. Vance making history in the completely wrong way.

Please support our show and tell them that we sent you. And then you have, again, these Democrats going on the offense, like here is Pete Buttigieg on CNN talking about how J.D. Vance was such a regrettable VP selection. I like the way he does it elegantly, right? Regrettable. Here, play this clip. Do you think that there's someone she could pick as her vice president that would make him regret that choice? Well, again, that's going to be her call,
Starting point is 00:10:07 her process. But what I will say is that the choice of J.D. Vance is a regrettable choice because he's somebody who was at his most convincing and effective when he talked about how unfit for office Donald Trump is. And he has not explained any reason other than, of course, his obvious interest in power, why he would have changed his mind on that. Remember, J.D. Vance's whole identity is that he is connected to Appalachia, a place that is being hurt so profoundly
Starting point is 00:10:37 by the opioid crisis. So the fact that he didn't just refer to Donald Trump as an idiot, though he did, didn't just say all kinds of things about how he was terrible, but to Donald Trump as an idiot, though he did. Didn't just say all kinds of things about how he was terrible, but compared Donald Trump to opioids, that is literally the darkest, most negative thing
Starting point is 00:10:53 someone connected to Appalachian could possibly say about a politician. And that was in public, right? In private, he was comparing him to Hitler, reportedly. He has yet to explain why his opinion would be any different other than his own search for power. And then you have Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren. Here's what she had to say. Play the clip. I'll let you go. I have to ask, what do you make of when Republicans call, criticize Harris as a DEI hire, but J.D. Vance, who has much less experience in government,
Starting point is 00:11:21 they don't say the same about him. Oh, are you asking me the double standard question? Yeah. Look, Kamala Harris is enormously qualified to be president of the United States. We are so lucky that she is bringing our party together. She is ready to go toe-to-toe with Donald Trump. And here's the scariest part to the Republicans. She can win on November 5th.
Starting point is 00:11:46 They're going to say everything they can. But the reality is that's what the American people are going to see. And that's what's going to pay off come November 5th. And then you just get this weirdo interview here with Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. It looks so strange where Trump is still talking about provoking war with one of America's biggest trading partners. Just watch this. To get elected. Mexico, are strikes against the cartels still on the table?
Starting point is 00:12:14 Absolutely. Even against our biggest trading partner? Absolutely. This was earlier on Fox. This is MAGA Republican Senator from Montana, Steve Daines. He tried to take a shot at Kamala Harris. Play this clip. Joe Biden was the kid that grew up in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the Irish Catholic kid. Kamala Harris is from San Francisco. She's a San Francisco liberal, a San Francisco radical. And then you had Jessica Tarloff on Fox, and she's an incredible pro-democracy advocate
Starting point is 00:12:47 who they still let on Fox. Here's what she had to say. We are unburdened. We are here living in the context of where, which we are, where we are, what the passage of time, give it, inject all of it into my veins at this moment. I am on the bus and I plan to be there for the next three and a half months. Here's one more clip of Tarlov. Play the clip. And you're seeing the public react.
Starting point is 00:13:10 It's not just Democrats. It's swing voters as well. I mean, $100 million in donations, 1.1 million unique donors, 62% are first-time donors. You know, and so here is
Starting point is 00:13:20 when I had George Conway on the Midas Touch show recently. I interviewed him. He's great. He created a pack called the Anti-Psychopath Pack. And here's what he had to say with the framing of kind of all of these clips that you see. He says the election is very simple. Watch this. I've always thought this election was relatively simple.
Starting point is 00:13:40 2016, Trump won because Hillary became the issue. Somehow they got Trump to read off a teleprompter for a few weeks at the end. 2020, Trump was the incumbent. He was the issue because of his behavior, because of Clorox, because of everything. And what happens again this year is whoever becomes the issue loses. And the problem that we were having over the last three or four weeks was that Joe Biden was becoming the issue. When Donald Trump has to be the issue loses. And the problem that we were having over the last three or four weeks was that Joe Biden was becoming the issue when Donald Trump has to be the issue. And now Donald Trump isn't going to be able to avoid being the issue. I think his campaign has been very wisely trying to keep him under wraps as much as possible, which is hard to do because of his narcissism. And you can't tell him, guys, you're better off if nobody sees
Starting point is 00:14:26 you. So that's what they did during the primary. And then during the trial, the trial in New York actually enabled him to stay off the radar screen. But now he's back on the radar screen. And now people can see him. People can judge him. They saw him Thursday night. He had a good night at the debate. Now he's the old man in the race. Now, after having raised the issue of cognitive decline, he's the only one left to that argument applies to. And so he's got a big problem. And the other thing is, is now that the Democrats have a nominee and are united behind a nominee, this is the time to go right back on offense. This is the way that Trump loses. Trump loses if he is the issue. And the other thing, Trump helps us on that because Trump is a narcissist and he can't help but make himself the issue. He wants to be the issue. He wants to be the center of attention. And that, in the end, I think is what would defeat him. Well, anyway, tell me what you think.
