Starting point is 00:01:45 Trump left his very tiny crowd in Michigan waiting at the location for more than three hours while he recorded a podcast with Joe Rogan. Hundreds of attendees left before he even took the stage. Meanwhile, momentum, momentum, momentum. Vice President Kamala Harris held a historic rally in Houston, Texas in front of over 30,000 people with Beyonce, Willie Nelson, Colin Allred, Jessica Alba, and more. It was her biggest rally to date. My name is Brett Mycelis with the Midas Touch Network. Remember to hit subscribe and help us get to 3.5 million subscribers. First, I got to show you the crowd, 30,000 people in Houston to see Kamala Harris. Watch this.
Starting point is 00:02:40 And by the way, even that doesn't even tell you the full picture. More than 1.5 million people registered for the event and online millions and millions and millions of people were watching. You can look at the top streams right here for the Kamala Harris event and for Trump's event people watching live on that one stream alone, while Donald Trump only had 14.7 thousand. Quite the difference. And as Matt McDermott says, quite the juxtaposition to watch 30,000 people fired up for Kamala Harris in Houston while people flood out of the Trump rally in Michigan because he's three hours late and doesn't actually care about his voters. As Aaron Ruppar put it, Kamala Harris rally in Houston, Beyonce, Kamala Harris, Donald Trump rally in Michigan, freeze for six hours, get a video of Trump from his private jet explaining that he'll be at least three hours
Starting point is 00:03:35 late when he's already an hour late, then leave. I want to show you just the vibes at the Kamala Harris rally because the vibes are really good. This was before the rally. Check out how much fun the crowd was having. A reporter who was in Houston at the event said inside the Harris Houston rally as the stadium fills covered quite a few rallies from 2016, 20, and 24, and haven't quite seen anything like this. Meanwhile, after Donald Trump was already over an hour late, he sent in this video to play in front of his crowd, letting him know that he would be at least three hours late for his speech. And I think you will. It's a Friday night, so we can sit around. We'll do an extra special job when we get there.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I think we land in about two hours. And we're stepping on the gas. But it's all about winning. And we had to spend some extra time with some people. And lots of people, actually. But we are going to do a special performance. And we'll be there. And I think you'll see the plane land and the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:05:04 And we really appreciate it and hope you can stay around. We'll be about two hours. I should land around 10 or a little before that. And I appreciate it very much. We're going to have a good time tonight. See you in a little while. Donald John Trump en route. Why is he so red? Anyway, CBS reporter Ed O'Keefe reported Trump's decision to spend hours with Joe Rogan not going well with Michiganders, some of whom are leaving as they learn that the former president is still more than an hour away. Here's one of the videos of people leaving the rally.
Starting point is 00:05:43 Watch this. And here's another video of Trump rally attendees heading to their cars. Watch. All right, can we play that video from Kamala Harris's event just one more time of the crowd just to compare? And while Trump was on his private jet heading to the rally that he was three hours late for, while his followers were leaving in droves, Donald Trump took to his social media app to disparage a retired U.S. general and his former chief of staff, John Kelly. Donald Trump wrote, John Kelly's tarnished reputation keeps getting worse.
Starting point is 00:06:46 He is a stone cold loser, always has been. And I'm glad I didn't have him involved with the ISIS caliphate, which I won in record setting time. If he was involved, we would have lost. I mean, what a loser. He's so mad that John Kelly exposed him for all of his comments about Hitler that he continues to lash out at one of our revered military generals. When Donald Trump actually arrived to Michigan to the rally, it was the most bizarre scene imaginable. He took the stage and for over seven minutes, he just kind of waddled on stage and walked around aimlessly while The Undertaker's theme song played from WWE, like The Wrestler, The Undertaker. He just kind of waddled around, walking around while this very kind of disturbing
Starting point is 00:07:31 music played underneath him. It was just like very odd. People were very confused. And then Donald Trump told the crowd that he had some other more important things to do, and that's why he was late. Watch. It's, you know, it's quite something, and we had some other things really important. Then Trump, in front of the crowd in Michigan, started crapping on Detroit. It's a developing area. You can't say Detroit is exactly, you know. When I said the other day, last time I was here, I said, we got to bring Detroit.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Because honestly, for 45 years, I've been hearing Detroit, Detroit. We're going to make it great. But when I sort of gave it a little knock, I said, let's face it, we've been ripped in Detroit. We got to make Detroit. They said he was disparaging. I'm not disparaging. I'm telling you the facts. Then Trump attacked Beyonce for being at the event with Vice President Harris. Joe Biden is asleep. Kamala is at a dance party with Beyonce. Then a Trump supporter passed out in the crowd and Trump instructed his crew to start playing Ave Maria again. It just got so weird. Watch. Should we listen to a nice song while we wait? Okay, Ave Maria by Pavarotti.
Starting point is 00:08:48 You want to do it? We'll listen to a song. I want the doctors to take their time. Sing a prayer. All right, that's enough of him. Now I want to show you some of my favorite moments from Vice President Harris's rally. Here was Beyonce saying that she was not there as a celebrity, but she was there as a mother.
Starting point is 00:09:11 H-Town. We are so happy to be standing here on this stage as proud country Texas women supporting and celebrating the one and only Vice President Kamala Harris. A woman who's been pushing for what this country really needs right now. Unity. It's impossible not to feel the energy in this room. The positivity. The community. The humanity.
Starting point is 00:10:02 We are at the precipice of an incredible shift. The brink of history. I'm not here as a celebrity. I'm not here as a politician. I'm here as a mother. A mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in. A world where we have the freedom to control our bodies. A world where we're not divided.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Our past, our present, our future merge to meet us here. Imagine our daughters growing up seeing what's possible with no ceilings, no limitations. Imagine our grandmothers. Imagine what they feel right now. Those who have lived to see this historic day. Even those who are no longer physically with us. Imagine all of their sacrifice. The sacrifice is made so we can witness the strength of a woman standing in her power.
Starting point is 00:11:21 The big focus on Vice President Harris's event in Houston was on reproductive rights because Texas is the epicenter of these awful abortion laws that are a result of Donald Trump overturning Roe v. Wade with his Supreme Court justices. So Vice President Harris spoke about how the Attorney General of Texas is suing to get their hands on the private medical records of women, while Donald Trump won't even let anybody see his own medical records. Now, the Attorney General of Texas is suing the United States government. So that Texas prosecutors can get, check this out, so that Texas prosecutors can get their hands on private medical records of women who leave the state to get care. Now I'd ask everybody here, please do see the irony. Okay, listen to this. On
Starting point is 00:12:10 the one hand, Donald Trump won't let anyone see his medical records. I gave up mine. And on the other hand, they want to get their hands on your medical records. Simply put, they are out of their mind. And I thought this next part was so important. Kamala Harris spoke about the consequences of this election on the Supreme Court. If Donald Trump is president again, he will likely get to appoint at least one additional Supreme Court justice. Remember who we appointed, call her Justice Katonji Brown Jackson. But if he were if he were reelected he'd probably get to appoint one if not two
Starting point is 00:12:59 members to the United States Supreme Court, at which point Donald Trump will have packed the court with five out of nine justices on that court who will sit, but think about that, who will sit for lifetime appointments shaping your lives and the lives of generations to come. And that is among the many critical contrasts in this election. Look, Donald Trump doesn't trust women, but I do. We trust women, and we understand what's at stake. And with Colin Allred in the United States Senate when Congress passes a bill to restore reproductive freedom, I will proudly sign it into law as President of the United States.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Proudly. Proudly. Let's face it, after a night with drinks, I don't bounce back the next day like I used to. Hey, I gotta be honest with myself, right? It feels like I have to choose between having a great night or a great next day. That is until I found pre-alcohol. ZBiotics pre-alcohol probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. Here's how it works.
Starting point is 00:14:20 When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut. It's this byproduct, not dehydration, that's the blame for your rough next day. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. Just remember to make Z-Biotics your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly and you'll feel your best tomorrow. Every time I have pre-alcohol before drinks, I notice a difference the next day. For example, after a fun night out with friends at like a local bar wherever we go i could still get up the next morning and hit the gym and i'll admit i was skeptical at first but i tried it at a dinner party with some friends the next morning i felt great ready to tackle the day ready to do more videos here at the midas
Starting point is 00:14:58 touch network i kept hearing about pre-alcohol and wondered what it was actually like now that i've tried it i I get the hype.

Meanwhile, earlier in the day, former president Barack Obama was speaking in North Carolina and he was speaking about North Carolina's Lieutenant Governor, the Republican Mark Robinson, who is running for governor in the state. Watch this. Josh's opponent believes other things. I do not know where to start with movement crap. Called LGBTQ people filth. Self- not need a governor who makes Donald Trump look almost normal. You deserve somebody who's going to work every day and fight for you. Somebody who has shown that he is up for the job. Somebody like Josh Stein. He's been doing it his entire career. And earlier in the day, J.D. Vance was in North Carolina also.
Starting point is 00:16:53 I feel like they've been kiting J.D. Vance these past few days or weeks, right? He hasn't been out there very much, but J.D. Vance was out there. And J.D. Vance, I guess, forgot that he's supposed to pretend like Mark Robinson doesn't even exist, even though that he endorsed Mark Robinson. Watch what happens when he realizes he wasn't even supposed to say Mark Robinson's name. And Mark Robinson was not at his event, but he accidentally had this kind of Freudian slip. Watch. I want to give a shout out to you guys have a great lieutenant governor.
Starting point is 00:17:21 Sorry. We've got. Sorry. Mark isn't here. What happened, JD? You and Donald and Mark Robinson, you all used to be such good friends. What happened? Why are you so afraid to say his name? Anyway, I want to get serious for one second because Donald Trump did write a really troubling message on his social media app yesterday. And I think this speaks to his fear and panic about the election. You see his panic ramping up as we approach election day, and Vice President Harris has the momentum. So Donald Trump wrote this, I, together with many attorneys and legal scholars, am watching the sanctity of the 2024
Starting point is 00:17:57 presidential election very closely because I know better than most the rampant cheating and skullduggery that has taken place by the Democrats in the 2020 presidential election. It was a disgrace to our nation. Therefore, the 2024 election, where votes have just started being cast, will be under the closest professional scrutiny. And when I win, those people that cheated will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, which will include long-term prison sentences so that this depravity Now, this is horrifying stuff. be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels unfortunately never before seen in our country. Now, this is horrifying stuff. This is straight up fascism, authoritarianism. This is Donald Trump saying that he intends to lock up all of his political enemies and anybody who opposed him.
Starting point is 00:18:56 That could mean me. That could mean you. That means politicians. That means election workers like Ruby Freeman and Shea Moss. That means people like Jack Smith. That means election attorneys like Mark Elias. This is really serious stuff. And this needs to be highlighted that Donald Trump is using this rhetoric. So when you have people like Mike Johnson and people like Mitch McConnell writing letters saying Kamala Harris needs to turn down the rhetoric, she shouldn't be speaking and calling Donald Trump a fascist and an authoritarian. Well, maybe Donald Trump should stop saying such overtly authoritarian things and making threats just like this, which are quite representative of what happened in Nazi Germany. This is horrifying stuff. Anyway, I want to show you some of the data, which actually bodes quite well for Vice President
Starting point is 00:19:41 Kamala Harris. And this goes against a lot of the conventional wisdom out there because we're seeing these polls that are neck and neck, right? But it's interesting. In all these polls that we are seeing, when they actually poll early voters, people who have actually placed their ballots already, Vice President Kamala Harris actually has a sizable margin, which I think is showing that there are a lot of independents and Republican voters out there who are voting for Vice President Harris because a lot of the early votes in the states are actually have more Republicans than Democrats doing early voting in some of these states.
Starting point is 00:20:13 So let me show you this. This is the Marist poll of early voters, people who have already submitted ballots. In Arizona, they have Harris up 55 to Trump 44. In North Carolina, Harris up 55 to Trump 43. In Georgia, Harris up 54 to Trump 45. And the CNN poll found something similar. They say Harris has likely banked more votes than Trump so far, given the Democrats' higher propensity to vote early or by mail, according to the poll. The poll was fielded October 20th to the 23rd, after early and absentee voting was well underway across the country, and found the 20% of likely voters who say they have already cast their ballot break 61% Harris to 36% Trump, while those who say they haven't yet voted break in Trump's favor by a smaller margin, 50% to 44%. And the New York Times found something similar as well.
Starting point is 00:20:58 The New York Times poll found that 9% of Americans who said they had already voted leaned heavily towards Ms. Harris, 59% to 40%. That is consistent with the Democrats' advantage that they've historically had in early voting and mail voting, though there are signs that the Republicans may have cast early ballots in unusually heavy numbers. I think we're seeing a big crossover vote this year, and I want to be monitoring this to figure out what all that data means and see how many crossover voters that we have from the Republican Party, how many independents are voting for Vice President Kamala Harris and
Starting point is 00:21:30 Governor Tim Walz. We saw another Republican yesterday endorse Vice President Harris. Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt says he's voting for character, competence, and commitment. He's voting for Vice President Kamala Harris and said this is a moment where he has to pick country over party. What's Donald Trump's final pitch to people other than what I just showed you? Well, Donald Trump is going to hold a rally on Wednesday in Wisconsin with former Packers quarterback Brett Favre. Brett Favre, as you probably know, is embroiled in a massive scandal right now where he's accused of stealing Mississippi state welfare funds. This is what the biggest corruption case in Mississippi state history that he is embroiled in right now. So I guess it's fitting for a Trump rally for, you know,
Starting point is 00:22:16 criminals got to hang out with criminals. And that's not all. At Donald Trump's Madison Square Garden event, by the way, Madison Square Garden is actually a smaller venue than where Kamala Harris was with Beyonce on Friday night. These are the people who are going to be on stage with Donald Trump at MSG. Elon Musk, Stephen Miller, Tucker Carlson, Speaker Mike Johnson, Dana White, RFK Jr., then some campaign people. I mean, it's just a who's who of grifters and criminals and the weirdest people on the planet. I mean, they're definitely not beating the weird allegations.
Starting point is 00:22:48 And I think it just shows you right now, though, Vice President Kamala Harris is finishing strong. She's going to be holding this rally on the ellipse at the site of where January 6th happened. I think that is going to be so impactful and powerful. She's making the contrast very clear with Donald Trump. And Donald Trump also continues to kind of screw himself over with the way he is treating people, with the way he's handling these various events, with his low energy delivery, with his threats. And I think America is waking up to it. But here's what we got to do, right?
Starting point is 00:23:18 We could have all this data. We could see all these clips. That's fine. But we all need to get to the polls and we got to vote. So we're counting on you for that. And what I want to hear, I want to hear your voting stories. Share them with us in the comments.
