Conson yesterday.
And except for the fact that the administration would not let us have the
bit, we had 50,000,
maybe more people and we were going to do an outdoor rally and we ended up having to do it inside in front of about a the people. We had 50,000, maybe more people, and we were going to do an outdoor rally,
and we ended up having to do it inside in front of about 1,000 people. But we had 50,000 people that showed up, but they didn't want me to be outside. They said they couldn't get us enough
people because they were guarding the United Nations and Iran. The president of Iran is here. But.
Donald Trump is now blaming Vice President Kamala Harris for his very teeny tiny crowd sizes.
Here's what he's been posting over and over again.
Posts like this from the weekend.
He goes, Kamala wouldn't allow for protection to take care of this crowd.
So rather than having 50,000 in a field, we're using a small arena.
But she is not going to stop us.
And everyone knows she doesn't have what it takes.
Join me.
He's very self-conscious of these very small venues that he has.
For example, like when he was in Savannah, Georgia, it was such a tiny crowd.
When he was in Wisconsin this weekend, such a tiny crowd.
When he was in Michigan, such a tiny crowd.
And they're walking out on him in the middle of the speech as well.
I mean, and Vice President Kamala Harris is filling up these stadiums. So ever since
Vice President Kamala Harris during the debate had that moment where she looked at Donald Trump
and looked at the viewers and said, I want you to watch what's going on as people are leaving
these very small crowd sizes. You just don't have the juice anymore, Donald. So during his speeches,
as people are leaving and as he sees the small crowd sizes, he's saying things that are just total lies.
He's like, we have 40, 50,000 people outside, but you know what?
They're just not letting them in here.
This is what he said in Wisconsin from this past weekend.
Here, play this clip.
It's something special.
But outside we have thousands and thousands of people.
Would anybody love to give up their seat? So we were going to have a thing outside someplace
in an area where we could have held the people. And I would say, what do you think, 40,000,
50,000 people at least out there? This went almost all the way to the airport.
And it looked like when Lindbergh landed in New York.
Do you remember that?
He had all the way — the Broadway, the whole —
the way they used to do it. And this looked like it.
But thousands and thousands of people.
And they all could have had a lot of fun.
Instead, now they're probably leaving and walking back home
because we have a nice little room that probably holds 1,500, 2,000, maybe less.
And outside, you have 40,000, 50,000 people
because the administration couldn't give us the Secret Service necessary because they're guarding... Because they're guarding the Iranian president.
And again, speech after speech now.
Before that speech, he gave the speech in Walker, Michigan.
Again, very small crowd there.
And people started leaving in the middle of it.
And he goes, it looks like they're leaving,
but they're not actually
leaving. What you see isn't actually happening. This is in the middle of his speeches. He's saying
this here. Watch this. I want to explain something. The people that you see leaving,
because nobody ever leaves. And when they do, I finish up quick, believe me.
But I couldn't take pictures at the beginning. So I take them at the end sometimes if I'm late, the plane gets late, you get delayed,
lots of things happen.
There's a little hurricane going on in Florida, as you know.
And so what they do is they say, oh, please come up now at the end of my speech.
I said, don't do that because it looks like they're leaving like your husband who owns
this place.
And Vice President Kamala Harris is just so in his head.
Remember at that bizarre town hall last week in Flint, Michigan.
It's close to last week with Huckabee Sanders, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who is the governor of Arkansas, but she's serving as the moderator of this bizarre town hall propaganda thing.
And then he goes, he goes, no one's
leaving. This is bigger than ever right now. And he's so self-conscious. Here, play this clip.
See, she said, I guess I don't think I've ever said this before. So we do these rallies. They're
massive rallies. Everybody loves everybody stays till the end, by the way. You know,
when she said that, well, your rallies leave honestly nobody does and if i saw them
leaving i'd say and ladies and gentlemen make america great again i'd get the hell out okay
because i don't want people leaving but i do have to say so i give these long sometimes very complex
sentences and paragraphs but they all come together i do it a lot i do it with uh raisin
cane that story i do it with the story on the catapults on the aircraft carries i do it with Raising Cane, that story. I do it with the story on the catapults on the aircraft carriers.
I do it with a lot of different stories.
When I mention Dr. Hannibal Lecter, I'm using that as an example of people that are coming
in from Silence of the Lambs.
I use it.
They say, it's terrible.
So they say, so I'll give this long, complex area.
For instance, I talked about a lot of different territory.
The bottom line is, I talked about a lot of different territory. The bottom line,
as I said, the most important thing, we're going to bring more plants into your state and this
country to make automobiles. We're going to be bigger than before. But the fake news,
and there's a lot of them back there. For a town hall, there's a lot of people.
But the fake news likes to say, the fake news likes to say, oh,
he was rambling. No, no, that's not rambling. That's genius. When you can connect the dots,
you got to. Now, now, Sarah, if you couldn't connect the dots, you got a problem. But every
dot was connected and many stories were told in that little paragraph.
By the way, I can show you dozens of clips like this and you've seen them on the Midas Touch
Network. So I'm just going to show you one here from the recent speech he gave in front of a teeny
tiny crowd in North Carolina in Wilmington. 28 minutes into that speech, people were walking out as well. Here,
you'll see them leaving because they're like, what is going on here?
But take nothing for granted. You have to get out and vote. You just have to get out and vote.
We cannot accept it. What they do is, the only thing they do well, they cheat.
And I get it. He's washed up. He's washed up. Like, did you see the speech that he gave
this weekend in Erie, Pennsylvania? You see the speech he gave? Just play this clip.
They don't even think about it. These are rough, vicious, rougher than anything you can imagine.
There is no, and I say it all the time
if you wanted to do a movie on some of
these people that you're going to be looking
at in two minutes
if you wanted to do a movie, there's
no actor in Hollywood
that could play the role
there's nobody that could, these actors
you know, they're a little bit shaky
they can't play the role
they'll bring in a big actor
and you look you say oh he's got no muscle content he's got no muscle we need a little muscle
then they bring in another one but he's got a weak face he looks weak
now these guys have the whole package i mean of course people are going to
walk out when he's doing things like that. Like what in the world is that?
You know, if there's anything I've learned in my career, it's that if someone is given an opportunity, their hard work can pay off. But as with anything in business, some companies do
things the right way and some well don't. That's why I'm excited to partner with a brand that is
doing things the right way and is living up to the true American spirit. And they're called
American Giant. While many companies send jobs overseas, American Giant is pushing back. They make high-quality clothing and activewear
right here in the USA. I'm talking about everything from sweatshirts and jeans to jackets and dresses.
It's all made with care right here at home. I've been wearing American Giant for a bit now,
and the quality is unbeatable. The fabric feels amazing, and the durability? Well, I'm still
wearing the same sweatshirt I got months ago, and it's just getting softer with time. They really do obsess
over every detail and you can tell that it's made to last. And my favorite part, it's more than just
clothes. It's about supporting local communities and American workers. Now, if you're looking for
something incredibly comfortable and durable, check out their French terry collection from
joggers to sweatshirts. It's perfect for that cozy yet put-together look.
I personally love their classic full zip hoodie.
It's the piece that put them on the map.
With custom heavyweight fleece and side panels for mobility, this hoodie is built to last.
I reach for it whether I'm out for a casual day or just lounging at home.

Do you remember the reporting that we did as well? And we gave a big hat tip there to some local Michigan reporters as well. Remember when he was in Potterville and he claimed that there were
tens of thousands of people outside, but there was like four, like there was like four people
outside the venue
and then the local network covered it do you remember that here just here here was our
coverage on that here play this clip this past week donald trump gave a speech in potterville
michigan and during the speech he said that as he was driving up to this small venue in potterville
there were thousands and thousands of people outside as far as the eye could see that were there as he was driving up turns out like everything he says
this is totally false hat tip to channel 6 news wlns some great local reporting they got their
hands on footage of the moment donald trump was driving up to this venue where he gave this
unhinged and very bizarre speech and guess
what there were not thousands and thousands of people as far as the eye can see as he was driving
up there actually weren't that many people outside let me show you the moment donald The You know, outside they won't ever report that they never reported outside you have thousands
and thousands of people they couldn't get in they don't get seats like you guys they didn't get the
seats that you got believe me but you have thousands and thousands of people outside as
far as the eye could see as we're driving up.
So surprised, surprised he's lying. Once again, let's take a look at the report by WLNS. It says,
fact check, Trump claimed thousands lined the streets in Potterville. And it says that he said
that there were thousands of people as far as the eye can see. However, when they got to the footage,
it was obvious that that was not the case. In fact, Potterville has a total population of 3,055 people.
And let me show you again that moment in the debate, which I think was just the key moment.
It's also where Donald Trump started talking about eating the cats and the dogs.
But Vice President Kamala Harris called him out for his tiny crowd sizes,
and he lost it. And that's all he's been talking about and posting since. Let me show it to you.
Play this clip. Harris, thank you. President Trump, on that point, I want to get your response.
Well, I would like to respond. Let me just ask, though, why did you try to kill that bill,
and successfully so? That would have put thousands of additional agents and officers on the border.
First, let me respond to the rallies. She said people start leaving.
People don't go to her rallies.
There's no reason to go.
And the people that do go, she's busing them in and paying them to be there and then showing them in a different light.
So she can't talk about that.
People don't leave my rallies.
We have the biggest rallies, the most incredible rallies in the history of politics.
That's because people want to take their country back. Our country is being lost. We're a failing nation. And it happened
three and a half years ago. And what's going on here, you're going to end up in World War III,
just to go into another subject, what they have done to our country by allowing these millions
and millions of people to come into our country and look at what's happening to the towns all over the United States and a lot of
towns don't want to talk it's not going to be Aurora or Springfield a lot of
towns don't want to talk about it because they're so embarrassed by it in
Springfield they're eating the dogs the people that came in they're eating the
cats they're eating they're eating the pets of the people that live there
and this is what's happening in our country and it's a shame as far as
rallies are concerned as far as the reason they go is they like what I say
they want to bring our country back they want to make America great again it's
very simple phrase make America great again she's's a very simple phrase, make America great again. She's destroying this country. And if she becomes president, this country doesn't have a chance of success.
Not only success, we'll end up being Venezuela on steroids. I just want to clarify here,
you bring up Springfield, Ohio, and ABC News did reach out to the city manager there. He told us
there have been no credible reports of specific claims of pets being harmed,
injured or abused by individuals within the immigrant community all these people until let me just say here this is the people on
television say my dog was taken and used for food so maybe he said that it maybe
that's a good thing to say for a city manager I'm not taking this from
television was eaten by the people that went there again the Springfield city manager says there's no evidence of that.
Vice President Harris, I'll let you respond to the rest of what you've heard.
You talk about extreme.
You know, this is, I think, one of the reasons why in this election,
I actually have the endorsement of 200 Republicans
who have formally worked with President Bush,
Mitt Romney, and John McCain, including the endorsement of former Vice President Dick
Cheney and Congress member Liz Cheney. And if you want to really know the inside track on who
the former president is, if he didn't make it clear already. Just ask people who have worked with him.
That's good stuff.
