This Donald Trump meltdown has reached a new phase of just complete absurdity. Donald Trump now posting AI videos of himself and Elon Musk doing weird dances together. And then Donald Trump posted this first thing in the morning around 7 a.m. Donald Trump posted Kamala Harris wants nothing to do with Crooked Joe Biden. They are throwing him out on the Monday night stage known as Death Valley. He now hates Obama and Crazy Nancy more than he hates me. He is an angry man as he should be.

They stole the presidency from him. It was a coup. This is very, very strange behavior by Donald Trump. Since Donald Trump wanted to use the AI of him and Elon Musk dancing, we created this AI image of Donald Trump holding President Biden's photo in bed. Donald, he's just not into you. Or how about this AI of Vice President Kamala Harris putting the cuffs on Donald Trump? Donald Trump's meltdown accelerating this morning also due to some really good news for the country. As our country receives good news and Vice President Kamala Harris receives good news. That is bad for Donald Trump. Donald Trump wants to cause harm to our country. So just take a look at the headlines that I woke up to, that you woke up to. U.S. retail sales surge in July. The Biden administration

cuts Medicare drug prices, reducing 10 prescription drug prices significantly now that Medicare can directly negotiate prescription drug prices. The Biden administration achieves U.S. oil export milestone. There's been more drilling right now in United States history than ever before in any country in the world. Then President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris significantly are focused on climate change. Some other headlines, J.D. Vance faces backlash over his post-menopausal remarks where he very in a creepy way and strange way agreed with this podcaster who says the role of post-menopausal women are to basically be good grandmothers and watch kids. It's, you know, again, just this strange misogynistic

weirdness that he's spewing. And then, of course, there was a new poll out this morning from Emerson, one of the top rated polls out there that has Vice President Kamala Harris pulling ahead 50% to 46% and strengthening her support among young voters who shifted by an additional nine points to her. And she's also taking the lead now by three points over Donald Trump in voters who are over 70 years old. Donald Trump, meanwhile, is desperately trying to move the criminal sentencing date in the Manhattan criminal case against him. Justice Mershon previously said that he would be having the sentencing of Donald Trump after being convicted on 34 separate felony counts in the Manhattan criminal case taking place on September 18th.

Donald Trump just filed a emergency motion to try to postpone the sentencing of his Manhattan criminal conviction. Look, as Donald Trump is posting these weird kind of delusional, fictional scenarios in his mind about President Biden being angry and President Biden being this, I just want you to know that Donald Trump has been consistently making posts like this. He's imagining in his mind in a prior post just the other day, he goes, President Biden's going to show up at the DNC and he's going to go and take the stage and he's going to go, I'm not leaving. I'm going to be the nominee. Meanwhile, I mean, President Biden's out there posting the most humble and supportive messages towards Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Walz,

President Biden's posting, just what a great guy Governor Walz is. President Biden's posting how Vice President Kamala Harris is doing an incredible job and how proud he is at our, you know, normal supportive stuff. Remember Donald Trump's speech though recently where he was again kind of talking about this like fictional scenario in his mind. This was Donald Trump in his recent speech in Montana where he fantasized about what he thinks Biden's convention speech should look like. Here, play this clip. Now he's seeing what the competition is. I hear he's going to make a comeback at the Democrat convention. He's going to walk into the room and he's going to say, I want my presidency back. I want another chance to debate Trump. I want another chance.

Yeah, what's up with that? I mean, that's some strange stuff right there. Here was Donald Trump speaking yesterday in Asheville, North Carolina, before a very small crowd. Remember, Donald Trump picked like the smallest venue, one of the smallest venues in North Carolina. He went to Asheville, the venue held less than 2,500 people. And Donald Trump started complaining that President Biden was not getting a prime DNC speaking spot. Very strange, very strange indeed. To have a candidate, you know, we spent probably $100 million on beating him. Then we had a very good debate and we beat him.

And they said, well, instead of letting it go, who knows what happens, right? It's the world of politics. They say, we want him out. Joe, you're getting out now, Joe. Well, I want to get out. I have 14. You're getting out now, Joe. We can do it the nice way or we can do it the hard way. And he's getting out. He's getting out. In fact, they're not even giving him a good spot to speak. You know, when he's speaking on Monday, Monday is not that's the worst day, but that's what they do. And it's their own form of,

it's just another, I guess, relatively, it's a minor form of cheating by comparison to what they really do, right? Everything Kamala Harris touches turns bad. It all turns bad.

I subscribed to that list so you don't have to, but I just want to show you the strange things that he sends to his supporters every day. Here was the one from this morning. Ben, where should I ship your signed MAGA hat?

And then it says, congratulations, I'm giving you one of this was sent at 640 a.m. Just so you know, 640 a.m. You get an email from the Trump campaign. Congratulations. I am giving you one of the last all gold MAGA hats in existence. Ben, I've even signed this one just for you. Win a limited edition gold MAGA hat signed by Trump. Donate to enter. Whether you wear it proudly or put it in a display case

for all your friends and family to see, this piece of Trump history is perfect for you so you're not really giving anything you have to donate and then you have a chance and then what do you do with this you you put it in a display case I mean if anyone's putting this in a display case they've got real serious issues but you could also get here's what Trump sent once again, the official Trump gold USA flag. It's the American flag, but Donald Trump's name plastered on it. Donald Trump writes in this email to his cult followers, Ben, I know what I will be wearing the day we take back the White House,

a Trump gold USA flag pin made right here in America. I saved this one just for you. A Trump gold USA flag pin made right here in America. I saved this one just for you. So Donald Trump took our flag, we the people, he took our American flag and he slopped his name Trump on it, on our flag, on our flag. He slopped the name Trump on it, disgraced it, demeaned it. That's our flag. That's our flag. How dare you? Donald Trump then goes, MAGA hat from Trump. Ben, you've hit the jackpot. Oh, again? This is the one he sent yesterday. And I hit the jackpot to get this. Our final offer was yesterday, but now apparently

the offer extended one more day to win a rare all gold MAGA hat personally signed by Donald Trump. Donald Trump then post this Kamala Harris team and Google caught manipulating headlines and stories creating fake news. This is not legal! Exclamation point, exclamation point. So now he's saying that Kamala harris colluding with google with google to manipulate the headlines and the stories wow this is someone in stuff and donald trump posts

this the great dana white the great dana white and then it's somebody wearing a shirt that says donald trump matters with some like weird creepy selfie selfie of Dana White who runs the UFC. What in the world is this? This is, again, strange, strange behavior. Take a look at the success of Medicare in negotiating these lower drug prices. Here's how it was announced by the Center for Medicaid Services. Biden-Harris administration delivered on their promise to deliver lower prescription drug costs for Americans. In a historic moment that will help lower prescription drugs

for millions of people across America, Biden-Harris announced that it has reached agreements for new lower prices for all 10 drugs selected for negotiations. These negotiated drugs are some of the most expensive and frequently distributed drugs in the Medicare program and are used to treat conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. The new prices will go into effect for people with Medicare Part D prescription drug prices beginning January 1st, 2026. If the new prices had been in effect last year, Medicare would have saved an estimated $6 billion or approximately 22% across the 10 selected drugs. These negotiated prices

range from 38% to 79% discounts off of list prices. About 9 million people with Medicare use at least one of the 10 drugs selected for negotiation. And you can see right here just a chart of some of the new prices. Post that chart right there, the new prices. This is real stuff that helps people. While Donald Trump is posting his stupid name on the American flag and selfies of Dana White, you got Biden and Harris doing things like this. And by the way, because of just the timing of things, the earliest this can kick in is like in a year and a half to

two years. But they're doing it for the American people because that's what they were put in power to do. That's what they were put in power to do. Also, look, jobless claims fell to their lowest level since July 6th right now. And here we know that U.S. crude oil production officially hit a record 13.4 million barrels per day. Daily oil production has increased by 22% over the last four years. I mean, just think about it. The U.S. is the world's largest oil producer, and we have real important attention being paid to climate change. So those are your updates right now.
