Right now, this is what Donald Trump is posting. He posts an AI photo of a cat holding a sign that says, Kamala hates me. Donald Trump is posting an AI photo of kittens that says, don't let them eat us. Vote for Trump. Donald Trump is reposting. He's doing this right now.
Starting point is 00:01:48 This is what Trump is currently doing. He's reposting Elon Musk's repost of the House Judiciary GOP account, the official Republican Judiciary House of Representatives account with an AI image of Donald Trump hugging a kitten and hugging ducks and geese. That's what Donald Trump is posting right now. Donald Trump is posting an AI image of himself with cats and kittens saying cats for Trump. Donald Trump is reposting an image of himself holding a cat wearing eyeglasses, running away from black people. And it says, vote Trump 2024 to save me from being eaten. He also reposts this AI image of Elon Musk that says D-O-G-E. Also on Donald Trump's social media platform, he posts, or this is what's being advertised when you look at the post that he's making, it says bulletproof Trump whiskey glasses, assassination edition glasses that he's selling.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Also a dream singles post where you can find mail order brides. That's what's being advertised on the Trump social media. Ted Cruz, by the way, MAGA Republican Senator from Texas is saying, please vote Trump so Haitian immigrants don't eat us. How weird, how dangerous. I always say this, this should not be a political issue. The leader of a political party or a leader of anything, a company that you work for, whether it's small, big, medium size, a nonprofit, a social organization that you're a member of, this is not how adults should behave. This is not how adults should behave. Also today, there was the news that the city hall in Springfield, Ohio had to evacuate because of Trump amplifying these racist, debunked conspiracy theories about migrants,
Starting point is 00:04:07 the city manager, the police in Springfield, Ohio, have said repeatedly, Haitian migrants are not going around eating people's cats and dogs and pets. That is not happening. And Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans are spreading vile conspiracies like this, attacking hardworking Americans each and every day and just attacking migrants in xenophobic ways every day to try to divide us. You all know what Donald Trump said at the debate. I don't need to show you what he said there, but I will show you what the latest Reuters Ipsos poll, one of the first post-debate polls show, and we're going to see a lot of these coming in. Vice President Kamala
Starting point is 00:04:59 Harris has now opened up a five-point lead against Donald Trump. Anybody who watched that debate performance and watched and takes a look at Donald Trump's post who goes, yeah, that's that guy, that's the guy I want, you must genuinely despise, you must not like yourself or have very little self-respect because that behavior is just objectively odd and weird. I'll just show you. Here's what Donald Trump said at the debate also. And now he's doubling and tripling down on that. Play this clip. In Springfield, they're eating the dogs, the people that came in. They're eating the cats.
Starting point is 00:05:39 They're eating the pets of the people that live there and this is what's happening in our country and it's a horrific horrific stuff it's that time of year football season is kicking off and prize picks is the ultimate way to amp up your game day experience as america's number one daily fantasy sports app prize picks makes it incredibly easy and exciting to play.

And I do want to show you this segment right here on PBS, though, that talks about the hardworking Haitian community in Ohio that Donald Trump is disparaging and saying that these individuals are eating pets, cats, kittens, going into waters and just eating ducks and geese. Here, play this clip.
Starting point is 00:07:56 It started slowly. We had an application pool that was a little bit different. People coming to work here. People looking for jobs. What he's welding here again are welded axle components. Jamie McGregor is the CEO of McGregor Metal, which makes welded parts for the auto and farm industries. Right now, about 10% of his workforce is Haitian, over 30 employees. I wish I had 30 more.
Starting point is 00:08:21 Our Haitian associates come to work every day. They don't have a drug problem. They'll stay at their machine. They'll achieve their numbers. They are here to work. And so in general, that's a stark difference from what we're used to in our community. McGregor acknowledges the sudden arrival of so many new immigrants is a challenge on multiple fronts.
Starting point is 00:08:42 But he believes this is partly how the industrial Midwest can regrow. We want more jobs in our community. And in order to fill those jobs, some jobs need to be people who are not originally from here. A community of more than 80,000 emptied out to less than 60. That is, until the last few years. Our churches, we've seen new people.
Starting point is 00:09:07 In the pews. Yes, absolutely. Wes Babian was the pastor at First Baptist Church for almost 20 years. For years we've lost people. But you hope somebody else will come and take their place. That hasn't happened here. Until now. Because there are folks from Haiti who are coming to church.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Lukens Merzus, who, among his many other jobs, mans the soundboard for Sunday services, is one of those new Haitian members. Why Springfield? Of all places. Merzus, with his wife and daughter, were among the first Haitian families to arrive here in 2018. I got a decent job when I was in Haiti, and then to make a difficult decision to leave,
Starting point is 00:09:52 it wasn't easy. Now, this is being amplified by all of MAGA. Here's Marjorie Taylor Greene at a hearing saying it. Play this clip. Wait, can we add in that there's haitian illegal migrants taking over towns eating people's pets but yet there's not a government show of force against that however it is against these people that protest the election they're not as dangerous sorry to interrupt no i just wanted to interject that thing of that 80 and then on cnn um the kind of trump maga person who they put on a panel and again you don't need panels for everything doubling and tripling down on you know what just
Starting point is 00:10:36 being ignorant to this and saying oh you know i just don't know i don't have enough facts i mean all these maga people want to spew all the lies each and every time they can but when they're confronted with donald trump lying about this they go oh why are you asking me these questions i don't know you're put on a panel and you spread lies so answer for it here play this clip is the real question yesterday when he said when he said when he said that he wasn't being uh sarcastic he wasn't being hyperbolic. He was amplifying a conspiracy theory that I think you would agree puts a target on the backs of Haitian immigrants
Starting point is 00:11:13 and that it is based on racism. Would you agree on that? Anti-black racism would be more pointed. Do you think that if there were 20,000 Scandinavians that had been sent to Springfield, people would be saying that they're eating cats and dogs and geese? I'm not going to answer for him, for his memes, or
Starting point is 00:11:33 anything else. No, no, but I'm asking you, do you think that conspiracy is based on racism? I mean, it's an NECN, yes or no? Because I'm not going to answer. I don't know. That was a long pause, Scott. Because I don't know the answer, and I'm not going to sit here and answer't know. I don't know. That was a long pause, Scott. Because I don't know the answer. And I'm not going to sit here and answer for somebody. I don't talk to Donald Trump about what the motivations are. And I don't answer to you either.
Starting point is 00:11:54 But Scott, what is the answer for you? But the bottom line is... I'm trying to give you a thoughtful answer. But the bottom line... I'll just share this with you as well. Here is... This is currently going viral right now. I've seen lots of videos like this of people playing the song for Donald Trump and just mocking him. Here, play this clip. Here's a group of people watching that moment live at a bar. Let's play this clip. Talk about it because they're so embarrassed by it.
Starting point is 00:12:19 In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. So again, I think that objectively, again, this should not be a political issue. This should just be a human being thing and you know when this republican voter was asked on cnn why are you voting for vice president kamala harris i think her response just says it best she's like i don't know because she behaves like a human like the other guy doesn't behave like a human here play this clip will you vote in the presidential election? Yes. Can I ask who you'll vote for? Congress. Were you Democrats before? Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Lifelong? I'm a Republican. You're a Republican and you're going the other way. Yes. Why? Because she behaves more like a human. Aside from the fracking issue? Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Yeah. And here's another former Trump voter, a Republican, and she's like, yeah, am I going to vote for this? I mean, who behaves like this? Just the behavior is disqualifying. Play this clip. But it also sounds like this debate cemented for you that you will never vote for former President Trump, at least again. Is that right? Yeah. I mean, I think that people want to separate policy from character, and I just don't see how you can do
Starting point is 00:13:57 that. I can't get behind somebody who maybe I agree with certain policies on, but their character is atrocious and lacks complete leadership. There you have it. We'll keep you posted with more. Hit subscribe. I want to get to 4 million by the election together. Thanks.
