As the Biden campaign posted, below is a list of the things that pathetic, diminished, and desperate Donald Trump did today after weeks of complaining that his criminal trial was keeping him off the campaign trail. Nothing. A blank post right there. Then the Biden campaign goes after Donald Trump again with the following post, quoting Donald Trump from Trump's Vegas speech, that utter disaster where Donald Trump, again, with the following post, quoting Donald Trump from Trump's Vegas speech,

that utter disaster, where Donald Trump said, I don't care about you. I just want your vote. It's been a disastrous few days for Donald Trump and a disastrous few weeks following his conviction. But just even over the past 24 to 48 hours, some disastrous polls for Donald Trump and some good polls for our democracy. And that may be silencing Donald Trump the way we've seen over the past 24, 48 hours as well. In addition to Donald Trump learning about some very bad polling data for him, a few other things occurred as well. Another bad day for Donald Trump's stock where the actual stock market itself is reaching records high. Convicted felon Donald Trump's stock continues to decrease by significant amounts after their re-audit was announced.

And then you got the data from Ohio's 6th congressional district, where Bill Johnson won that seat by 35 points in 2022, a plus 30 Donald Trump district, while the Republicans are going to win the special election that just took place on Tuesday for Ohio's sixth, it's only going to be a 4.4 point race victory with about 65% of the vote in. So about, say, 4% to 7%, maybe slightly more when all the results are counted. So a massive underperformance, again, and this shouldn't shock us because the macro Republicans are trying to take away our freedoms each and every day.

And President Biden and pro-democracy Democrats are talking about kitchen table issues that actually matter to the American people. So whereas Donald Trump is posting things like this, Professor Alan Dershowitz, I devoted 60 years of my life trying to defend and explain a legal system based on neutral principles. That legal system is gone. The Trump case destroyed it. Or Donald Trump saying the great patriot Charlie Kirk has a new book out. Buy his book. And Charlie Kirk, meanwhile, saying the most horrific and disgusting things on a day-to-day basis. President Biden putting out policies that actually matter to the American people. I'll give you an example. Here is a new big news from the Biden administration about trying to erase negative credit scores

for people who have medical debt in the thousands. Here, just watch this. This is just an issue to help Americans. Here, play this clip. Two out of every five Americans have medical debt, often totaling thousands of dollars. And those unpaid bills, they can take a big toll on your credit score, which can affect your ability to buy a new car, a home, even get a job. Now, in an ABC News exclusive, we have learned that the Biden administration is announcing sweeping changes that could erase that debt from your credit report entirely. Right. I mentioned before as well some of the bad polling data for Donald Trump. I should

show you some of that now. And as you know, I'm not big on talking about polls, but it's important that we rebut this narrative that Donald Trump's up. Trump's down in the polls right now. He's down. Here's the new 538 model, one of the most sophisticated models out there, which has Biden winning 53 times out of 100 and Donald Trump winning 40 times out of 100. So 53 to Biden, 47 to Donald Trump right there. And like she had Jane, and I like the work that he's doing over there too, analyzing these polls. Someone who I follow, he goes, look, it's really hard to make a forecast. And this is one of the only ones that actually use fundamental-based economic data to contextualize the picture today. Look, polls are going to change a lot, and any forecast overly reactive to them right now will be very unstable.

But nonetheless, that's very good polling data for President Biden. Also, the YouGov America Yahoo News poll has a two-point shift in favor of President Biden. They have President Biden up 46 to 44 percent. And in addition, when you start looking at some of the bogus narratives that we've been telling you about, that poll pretty much does a very good job rebutting a lot of those total bogus narratives. And I think it's important that we take a look. For example, with a significant sample size, and this poll has more black voters than the others, not surprisingly, black support for Trump isn't an issue. Less than 10% support that Donald Trump has among black voters, among registered voters, and even among all black adults, Trump is very unfavorable. So let's put this talk to bed. And that's, by the way, what we've said.

That's why I want to share with you at least some of those results so you can just see for yourself that anytime I see, oh, but he's leading the polls. He's not. That is a Trump-pushed, corporate media-pushed, right-wing propaganda-pushed narrative. And again, I'm not big on polls. I think they underestimate the strength of the pro-democracy community and how much the Republican Party has shrunk as it's gone full MAGA and it's become an extremist authoritarian wannabe party.

But nonetheless, let's stop with the narratives that Trump's up because it is false. By the way, some other big actual news. When President Biden promised on March 26th after the Baltimore Bridge collapse, promises kept. President Biden said, we're going to send all the federal resources they need. The people of Baltimore can count on us to stick with them at every step of the way until the port is reopened and the bridge is rebuilt. Well, breaking news, the Baltimore Key shipping channel fully reopens after Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed.

So yet another promise kept by President Biden. Hey, Midas Mighty.

Trump told the probation officer he he is a convicted felon. Trump told the probation officer he does have a gun in Florida. Felons can't possess a gun in that state. So one of the issues here is Trump demanding special treatment about having this gun. He has to turn in the gun before sentencing. But I predicted too that Donald Trump would never follow the rules when it came to that probation officer interview. I do want to show you this as well right here. I don't really want

to play, I hope you will indulge me that I don't want to play any more of those Trump clips from Vegas. I've done a lot of videos on them, enough of those videos. But we did a transcript at the Midas Touch Network of what Donald Trump actually said in Las Vegas, Nevada, when he gave that speech on June 9th, 2024. I think that was a big moment too in the race because I just noticed so many more people were watching it and paying attention and saying, whoa, what's he talking about? Electrocuting himself over being eaten by sharks? Like, whoa, corporate media, why are you acting like this guy's normal? We're seeing that now. So here's the transcript of what Donald Trump said in his speech.

So I'm not going to do his voice, but I'm just going to read it to you normally. Ready? Trump goes, so I said, let me ask you a question. And he said, nobody ever asked this question and it must be because of MIT. My relationship to MIT, very smart. He goes, I say, what would happen if the boat sank from its weight and you're in the boat and you have this tremendously powerful battery and the battery is now underwater and there's a shark that's approximately 10 yards over there. By the way, a lot of shark attacks lately. Did you notice that? A lot of shark. I watched some guys justifying it today. Well, they weren't really that angry.

They bit off a young lady's leg because of the fact that they were not hungry, but they misunderstood what, who she was. These people are cray. He said, there's no problem with sharks. They just didn't really understand. A young woman swimming now really got decimated and other people too, a lot of shark attacks. So I said, so there's a shark 10 yards away from the boat, 10 yards or here. Do I get electrocuted?

If the boat is sinking, water goes over the battery. The boat is sinking. Do I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted? If the boat is sinking, water goes over the battery. The boat is sinking. Do I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted? Or do I jump over by the shark and not get electrocuted? Because I will tell you, he didn't know the answer. He said, you know, nobody's ever asked me that question. I said, I think it's a good question. I think there's a lot of electric current coming through that water. But you know what I do? If there was a shark or you get electrocuted, I take electrocution every single time. I'm not going near that shark. That's what Donald Trump said.

Okay, let's compare what he said there to what President Biden said in his speech today before the Moms Demand Action Group for gun safety in America. Here's what President Biden said today. Play the clip. My predecessor told the NRA convention recently, he's proud that, quote, I did nothing on guns when I was president. And by doing nothing, he made the situation considerably worse. That's why every town, why this summit, why all of you here today are so damn important. We need you. We need you to overcome the unrelenting opposition of the gun lobby, gun manufacturers, so many politicians when they oppose common sense gun legislation. Let me show you one more clip of what President Biden said. Play the clip. After a school shooting in Iowa that killed a student and a teacher,

my predecessor was asked about it. You remember what he said? He said, have to get over it. Hell no, we don't have to get over it. We gotta stop it. We gotta stop it and stop it now. And it's President Biden's stance right there when it comes to common sense gun safety measures that led the Golden State Warriors coach, Steve Kerr, to say, look, that's what I want in a president. Guns are overwhelmingly the cause of death of many kids, the most prevalent cause. So we want someone in office who's going to not be talking about electrocution by sharks, but someone who's talking about issues. Here's Steve Kerr. Tell us why this endorsement? Why now? Well, Stephanie, I mean, it's clear that President Biden is really interested in implementing gun

safety measures, common sense, you know, gun violence prevention measures. I've been doing a lot of work the last 10 years with a lot of different gun safety prevention. People like Brady, Giffords, Sandy Hook Promise, March for Our Lives. I've learned so much and I know that we can prevent lives. President Biden is adamant that he's going to push for common sense laws that can do that. I know that President Trump will not do that. And so it's really a very simple choice for me. So are you voting for Joe Biden or against Donald Trump? No, I'm voting for Joe Biden. But, you know, I think the biggest thing for me is, you know, everybody needs to vote their conscience. I'm voting on a few issues, but this is the main one. I lost my father to gun violence when I was 18 years old. So I know how much pain people go through every single day in this country. I know that gun violence is the number one killer of children in America. And I know that there's so much that we can do about this. And I think most people out there agree with me, whether you're a Republican or a Democrat, 80% of people in this country want

universal background checks, whether it doesn't matter your political affiliation. We can we can do this, but we kind of have to steer the cruise ship there. It's going to take some time, but we need to implement laws that the vast majority of our country want. And President Biden is willing to do the work to try to get those changes. By the way, not only Steve Kerr, you also have Republican Paul Ryan, former Speaker of the House, who's not supporting Donald Trump, who says Donald Trump is unfit. And he said it on Fox too, by the way. Here, play this clip. ... reform in 2016, hoping that there was going to be a different kind of person in office. And I do think character is a really important issue. If you put yourself above the Constitution, as he has done. But what

happened? What turned you on? I think that makes you unfit for office. Was it the whole January 6th thing? That's a part of it. I think it's a contribution of factors. But I think it really is just character at the end of the day. And the fact that if you're willing to put yourself above the Constitution, an oath you swear when you take office in federal office, whether it's president or a member of Congress, you swear an oath to the Constitution. And if you're willing to suborn it to yourself, I think that makes you unfit for office. Does it? Finally, remember I showed you what Donald Trump did post, though, his big support of Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk is Trump's surrogate. So for Pride Month, this is what Charlie Kirk said. Again, he's a

Trump surrogate. He's a Trump ally. Here's what Charlie Kirk just said. Listen to how horrific this is. Here, play this clip. Yeah. And so it's very simple. So how do you love somebody? You love them so much to correct their error. And so let's just take the pride conversation out because people think it's an identification, but it's not. It's just sexual behavior. But if you meet an alcoholic or you meet a drug addict, do you affirm their struggle? No. You say, you're better than this. Let's get you free from that. Let's get you free from that activity.
