Trump Humiliates Himself So Badly, Even Fox Cuts Away
At his press conference yesterday, Donald Trump sounded like he was sleepwalking, or as I like to call this version of him, “xenophobic somnambulant Trump.” Trump repeated his administration’s garbage economic math and continued to push his false narrative that the election will be a fraud. He repeated his “Obamagate” conspiracy theory about how Barack Obama supposedly committed the greatest crime in history and yet we are never told which laws were broken.
Trump’s favorite network, OAN, asked him a total non-sequitur about some Antifa website redirecting to Joe Biden's website. It was merely a setup for Trump to rant about some non-existent link between Biden and Antifa. During his answer, Fox News displayed a graphic saying, “Trump says Biden should denounce Antifa," when of course there IS NO Antifa-Biden story at all. Fox eventually had enough and cut away from the briefing. The event was very weird and in stark contrast to the Biden-Harris event from yesterday.
Trump in Trouble: Biden & Harris Sound Normal at 1st Event
Yesterday, we had the first ever joint event for the Biden-Harris ticket. I covered the event live on YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook, and I have to tell you the event was remarkable in how normal it was — and life has not felt normal in a long time. Biden and Harris were able to stay on topic and put together a simple and coherent narrative about why they should get our support. Trump, on the other hand, rambles during his public appearances and can’t make a coherent case for why he should be reelected.
Both Biden and Harris seem to genuinely like their families, and relate to them as people. They speak in complete thoughts and are able to make convincing arguments about why they offer a better future. If this sounds like a low bar, it’s because it is. It’s only unusual now because Trump and Pence have been the frame of reference for more than three years. From a strategic standpoint, picking Harris may have been a great idea. We’ll find out in November.
From yesterday’s show:
How Trump Plans to Steal the Election
Donald Trump may not need to steal this upcoming election, but he's not taking any chances and he's sure as hell going to try. Trump says this election is going to be unfair, but he’s actively working to make it unfair. Trump says the election is going to be rigged, but he’s the one trying to rig it. Trump says voting by mail won't be reliable, but he's the one kneecapping the Postal Service. We need all hands on deck. None of us should be confident of this election’s outcome and every single one of us should make a plan to vote.

We all need to realize that Putin is going to be interfering with this election. The top 1% wants a new world order. They are pushing it in most countries and trying to destroy the economies. I think Putins people have already been in the US for a while. The groups that are destroying businesses and being violent are very organized. They are probably being paid to do these destructive things. The people that are protesting nonviolently are the citizens of this country and 99% do not want to hurt their fellow citizens. Trump is going to cheat any way he can to win. I'm sure the actual voting is going to be tampered with on a extreme scale. He wants to be like Putin. Dictator.
Can Trump’s sacking of the post office make the difference in the outcome and dicide the election?
