You know, I realize that Donald Trump has been terrified to do any real interviews recently,
and it's funny because that used to be his attack on Vice President Kamala Harris.
But lately, Donald Trump keeps canceling interviews like the 60 Minutes interview, And it's funny because that used to be his attack on Vice President Kamala Harris.
But lately, Donald Trump keeps canceling interviews like the 60 Minutes interview, and he's hiding deeper and deeper in his safe spaces.
And so last night, he went on Newsmax and delivered what was an interview I could only
be described as maybe psycho is the word I will use for this.
It was utterly deranged.
I want to break it down for you.
My name is Brett Mycelis here with the Midas Touch Network. Remember to hit subscribe, help us get to 3.5 million subscribers.
And if you haven't yet hit the like button, let's go through some of this. I think it's important
that we see what he's telling his cult followers on these networks. We'll start here where Donald
Trump claims that if we had honest voting, he thinks he would win California. Just utterly
delusional. Watch this.
Internal polling shows you plus three in Wisconsin, which, as I see it, is one of the toughest swing states for you to win. You've got a rally in California this weekend, as I understand it.
Just your final thoughts. Well, I heard about that. Wisconsin, they say, is tough, but I won
it one time, and I think I did even better the second time. We didn't get the decision, but I will tell you, I think I did a lot better.
A lot of bad things happened.
I'm going to California.
We have a really big one coming up in California.
And only because if we had honest voting, I believe I'd win California.
I think I'd win a lot of states that we don't know.
And we have to straighten out our elections, and we have to straighten out a lot of things in our country, but we have to have borders and elections to start.
And we have bad borders. I built hundreds of miles of wall and I would have built.
And I should note that with fewer than 30 days until election day, Donald Trump has actually
scheduled a rally in the Coachella Valley in California. Seems like a bit of a waste of time,
but you do you, Donald. Spend all
your money in California and New York and New Jersey. Let's see how it works out for you.
The host of the show brought up that Kamala Harris keeps saying she's going to make the
rich pay their fair share. Donald Trump stepped in and said, no, no, no, you don't tax the rich.
Watch this. Blame always seems to go on her end to corporate price fixing and vilifying the corporations and the companies in this country.
And when asked how she's going to pay for the agenda last night on 60 Minutes, she just keeps saying she's going to tax the rich.
Even Bill Whitaker on 60 Minutes is saying, well, we live in the real world.
How are you really going to do that?
Well, you don't tax the rich because the rich are going to look.
The rich pay most of the tax in the country. First of all,
you know, people hate to say it. They hate to hear it. But you take a certain very small percentage
and most of the tax is paid by the rich. But the problem that she has is she's going to the
communist method, take all incentive. And you know what the rich do and the corporations do?
They leave the country and they go to another country that's more friendly from a tax standpoint and other standpoints like a regulation standpoint.
Her agenda will bring us in to a 1929 style depression, and it's guaranteed.
She has no idea what.
Is that really a winning message for the working people of this country?
I don't think so. Trump on Newsmax also claimed that many stock analysts
are saying the only reason the stock market is up and reaching record levels is because of his
polling, which is actually not very good. Watch this.
This economy here in the United States is the hottest in the world.
They say our inflation is lower than other countries.
How do you respond to that as their position?
Well, it's so ridiculous first of all the
economy is not good the only thing good is the stock market and it seems that every time i go
up in the polls that's where the stock market's going you know you have some of the number
the top stock analysts saying that the reason the stock market's good is they think we're
going to be elected i'm going to be elected And interestingly, we are leading very substantially in a lot of these polls.
And, you know, by now, I'm sure you've already seen legendary reporter Bob Woodward's reporting that Donald Trump has been in touch with Vladimir Putin at least seven times since he left office.
And in addition to that, that when we were short on testing during the height of the covid pandemic. Trump had sent our COVID tests to Vladimir Putin
so he could use them personally. Trump flat out denied Woodward's reporting on Newsmax. Watch this.
I do. I believe she'll be aware. Let me just ask you one more thing about the Woodward book,
because they're going to their favorite subject, which is, of course, Russia. They're alleging
that you have had several phone calls with Vladimir Putin over the last three and a half years.
Can I ask if that's true? That's wrong. That's absolutely wrong. Look, I know Bob Woodward, you know, I'm suing him
because he used tapes and he sold the tapes. He didn't just sell the book. He sold the tapes.
He's not allowed to do it. He even says in the tape that he's not allowed to do it. And he sold
the tapes. And I just think he's a bad guy. So I thought I'd have fun with it. I think he's a very
bad guy, but he's got a tremendous liability.
I gotta say, who do we trust here, right?
Legendary reporter Bob Woodward or legendary liar Donald Trump?
I think we all know where we stand.
And it hurts Donald Trump's case even more that he's basically flat out come out and said this
multiple times over the past few months.
Like, this was just recently in Juneau, Wisconsin,
when he made a comment that Americans who don't support him are, quote,
more dangerous than dictators like Putin. Watch. The enemy from within, the crazy lunatics that
we have, the fascists, the Marxists, the communists, the people that we have that
are actually running the country, not her. She's not running it and Biden's not running it either.
And you all know that those people are more dangerous, the enemy from within, than Russia and China and other people.
Recently on Fox News, Trump said that he told Putin that it's a shame because
we could have done lots of business together. Watch this.
But we were having a problem. You had Adam Schiff and all these bad people, including Hillary
and others coming up with this Russia hoax.
And I told Putin, I said, you know, it's a shame because we could have done a lot of business, the countries together.
But with this whole fake thing that's going on, and he understood that, he said, it's a fake deal.
He said, he actually said to me, he said, it's tough to make a deal now.
I said, you're right, it's tough.
They created a fake narrative, this Russia, Russia, Russia hoax. It was a hoax.
And we could have had a much different relationship with Russia.
Trump released the video a few months back saying that Putin putting soldiers on Ukraine's border
showed that he is a quote, good negotiator. Watch.
Never happened. Russia was not going to attack Ukraine. As soon as I got out,
they started to form along the lines. And I thought that Putin maybe, well, he's a good
negotiator. I thought he was going to be doing that for negotiation purposes. Then all of a
sudden they attacked. And I said, what's going on here? Now, I want you to take notice of what
Donald Trump said here back in February. He said that he talks to Putin a lot and says he gets along with him well. And I want you to notice the tense of what he said. I talk to Putin a lot. Not that I talked to Putin. I talk. Watch.
I talked to Putin a lot. I got along with him well. he's not beating the allegations here. This episode is brought to you by Hexclad. They've

Israel to bomb Iran's nuclear sites. Let's just also remind everybody that Donald Trump is the
one that got us out of the Iran nuclear deal that President Obama had negotiated.
Watch this. He actually said, don't go after their nuclear. Well, that's going to be the problem
at their nuclear, because they're going to have nuclear soon. And it's going to be a much
different world. We're not going to be able to do that. It's just the opposite of what he said. And I said that very strongly.
I said, you you must be kidding when you did. He really say that because the answer to the
question was what that he made that statement. It was just after he made it. And I said,
it's just the opposite. You have to go just the opposite with Joe. You know, I call him Crooked
Joe. I call him Sleepy Joe. call him sleepy joe but trump was asked
about reporting from bob woodward's book in which woodward said that biden had called trump and
quote effin a-hole here's what trump had to say about that uh in this one he portrays biden is
very angry he says biden calls you a effing a-hole calls netanyahu a son of a and a a effing a-hole, calls Netanyahu a son of a bitch and a bad effing guy.
And to me, it just it was it's rings so true because I think that's who Joe Biden really always was.
And then they kind of just gave him this makeover into this friendly statesman for this presidency.
But but this is kind of how Biden always was, wasn't it?
And what do you think of the of the phrasing that he uses?
Well, I think that Woodward's a real jerk.
And I think he's sort of way over.
I mean, I think he is.
Last time I spoke to him, which was a long time ago,
I think he's sort of out of it, to tell you the truth.
I think he is really bad.
But I do believe he probably said that about me.
I would say that Biden probably did say that about me.
And things were not going much better with J.D. Vance.
Vance was in Michigan and behind stage.
He was giving this interview and he was asked once again about his view on the 2020 election.
And once again, he gave a non-answer.
Watch this.
What do you have to say to moderate Republicans who are disappointed with your stance on certifying the 2020 election results?
Yeah, well, what I'd say is that, first of all, the 2020 election is in the past.
Let's go back to Trump. Here's Trump saying that our military is bad,
our generals are bad, and that they should all be fired. Watch this.
You know, why wouldn't they want to have a strong border? Why wouldn't they want to have
good elections? Why wouldn't they want to have good schooling, good, you know, so many different things. The military is bad. We have generals that
do such a bad job. They never get fired. I mean, they should have been fired.
Trump then completely makes up that he got the Mexican government to give us their military
free of charge. No idea what he's even talking about. Watch this.
I built hundreds of miles of wall and I would have built another 200 miles, far more than
I said I was going to build. And it worked. And then I got the Mexican government to give us their
military free of charge by doing certain things. It's free of charge. We had the best border in
the history of our country four years ago. And now we have the worst border in the history of
the world. No country has ever had a border like this. Trump then continued to spread lies about Springfield, Ohio, the migrants there, and
Aurora in Colorado.
Remember, Aurora was like the original Springfield in terms of Donald Trump spreading lies and
saying that migrants had invaded the whole community.
He just continues to lie.
And in this comment, I want you to notice when he says they're literally taking over
cities and other cities and towns,
even if they haven't arrived yet. So he's acknowledging that this isn't happening, but is also trying to say that it's happening. Watch this.
You look at Springfield, Ohio, you look at Aurora in Colorado, where the governor has no idea what
to do. I mean, they're literally taking over cities and other cities and towns, even if they haven't arrived yet, are just, I mean, they don't know what is going on.
They are so scared.
Trump then claimed that the legal Haitian immigrants in Ohio are actually illegal as far as he's concerned.
Watch this.
To our people.
I mean, look at Springfield where 30,000 illegal immigrants are dropped. And it was they may have done it
through a certain little trick, but they are illegal immigrants as far as I'm concerned.
They're destroying the town. They're destroying the whole they'll end up destroying the state.
We cannot let this happen. This is the worst president and vice president in the history of
our country. And we cannot let them get away
with this stuff. They're destroying our Trump has asked a question about hurricanes and he rants
about electric cars for some reason. Watch says that you and Republicans are lying about FEMA
siphoning their funds to send it to the to the migrant crisis that this administration has
created. What's your answer to that? Well, he's paid billions of dollars he's giving money away to
illegal aliens as you would say or illegal migrants you can call whatever you want
the name is the same the people that come into our country illegally many of them are murderers
many of them are drug dealers and gang members the crime rates all over the world are going down
because their criminals are being dumped into our country at levels that nobody's ever seen before.
It's an absolute outrage what they've done to our country at the border and what they've done with respect to inflation and energy and stupid electric car mandates where everybody's going to have an electric car in a short period of time.
And they don't want all electric cars.
And by the way, electric cars are fine
for a certain percentage of the market,
but you have to have gasoline-propelled cars.
You have to have, I would say, hybrids are very good,
and new things are coming out.
But it's just ridiculous.
These people truly don't know what they're doing.
I'm just glad that people are speaking up
against the blatant lies being spread by people like Trump and Vance and Fox.
It's really despicable.
And it's one thing to just kind of lie in general.
That's bad enough, right?
But during a crisis where people's lives are on the line, it is just reprehensible and it is just completely beyond the pale. Mitt Romney spoke out yesterday. He was at a conference and he was
speaking about the disinformation not just being put out by the Russians and the Chinese, but by
people like Donald Trump. He called Trump out directly about his lies about the FEMA aid.
Watch Mitt Romney break it down. They will make a heroic effort to try and do so. I actually don't
think that's going to significantly impact the election. But the amount of disinformation is really extraordinary, although it's not just
being put out by the Russians and the Chinese. I mean, former President Trump told us that the
people in Springfield are eating dogs and cats. All right. I mean, you know, he likewise said that
FEMA money, our emergency money, instead of helping the people that have been
hit by the hurricane, is being used to help illegals. I mean, he just makes it up. And
so he is able to spew enough disinformation that the Chinese must be smiling.
So that's what Donald Trump was doing yesterday, speaking to his MAGA base on his propaganda networks, not reaching any new voters whatsoever, just spreading his same old grievances and
lies and racism and hate and xenophobia.
It's disgusting.
It's psychotic, quite frankly.
And I know you are all sick of it because I know I am very sick of it.
But we got to be sharing this, right?
We got to let people know what he is saying, what he is doing. And we're going to do that here at the Midas Touch Network. We're not going to
cover our eyes and close our ears to the reality. We're going to present you the unvarnished reality
so that you can form your own opinions. Thank you so much for watching. Remember to hit subscribe,
