- 0:09SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 0:10SPEAKER_02: Let me just give you a little context.
- 0:11SPEAKER_02: The day before Fannie Willis came clean with her affair with the prosecutor,
- 0:16SPEAKER_02: the next day were you in Atlanta?
- 0:18SPEAKER_00: I do not believe so.
- 0:19SPEAKER_02: What would you say if I had a series of text messages from your team
- 0:23SPEAKER_02: that said you were in Atlanta at a Warrior Hawks game?
- 0:26SPEAKER_02: I don't think you know that we have this stuff.
- 0:28SPEAKER_02: You just took it down really quick, if I could look at that again.
- 0:31SPEAKER_02: I think you've already perjured yourself, but you will go down as a total dirtbag.
- 0:37SPEAKER_02: I recall going to a University
- 0:40SPEAKER_00: of Maryland basketball game.
- 0:41SPEAKER_00: It was Maryland playing Iowa.
- 0:44SPEAKER_02: Could it then be that University of Iowa's the Hawkeyes?
- 0:48SPEAKER_02: Teams, you had the teams wrong, sir.
- 0:51SPEAKER_02: Whose questioning is this, by the way?
- 0:53SPEAKER_02: Are you using your time, sir?
- 0:55[music]
- 1:03SPEAKER_03: We are controlling transmission, if we wish to make it louder.
- 1:10[music]
- 1:28SPEAKER_00: We will bring up the body.
- 1:29SPEAKER_00: We can change the focus to a soft blur.
- 1:31SPEAKER_00: You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas.
- 1:36SPEAKER_00: You've just crossed over into...
- 1:38SPEAKER_03: How am I turning to the
- 1:39[music]
- 1:50SPEAKER_03: to go now that I've gone too far?
- 1:54SPEAKER_00: For your consideration,
- 1:55SPEAKER_00: a nation held hostage by the fragile ego of a man-baby president,
- 1:59SPEAKER_00: you were trapped with in the Twilight Zone.
- 2:02[music]
- 2:29SPEAKER_03: in Donald Trump's face, not
- 2:32SPEAKER_00: to love.
- 2:32SPEAKER_00: Donald Trump is a great disgrace, so we hire, hire, ride in Donald Trump's face.
- 2:39[music]
- 2:51SPEAKER_00: They are crazy,
- 2:52SPEAKER_00: there's no question of matter,
- 2:53SPEAKER_00: they are very crazy people, and I tell them that all the time.
- 2:56SPEAKER_00: They said, you're crazy, man.
- 3:03SPEAKER_00: It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe.
- 3:08SPEAKER_00: They can take out a city.
- 3:10SPEAKER_00: Let them take out Los Angeles.
- 3:12SPEAKER_00: Let them take out San Diego.
- 3:15SPEAKER_00: That's, this is a very small price to pay.
- 3:18SPEAKER_00: Be higher!
- 3:19SPEAKER_03: Higher!
- 3:19SPEAKER_00: Right in Donald Trump's face.
- 3:22Are we not the Superman?
- 3:24SPEAKER_00: Aryan pure Superman?
- 3:26SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he is the Superman.
- 3:27Super duper Superman.
- 3:29SPEAKER_00: Is
- 3:29[music]
- 3:39SPEAKER_00: Donald Trump's world new order.
- 3:42SPEAKER_00: If we want a foreign race, we love Donald Trump.
- 3:46SPEAKER_00: Space when we bring to the world disorder.
- 3:50SPEAKER_00: When Donald Trump says... Maybe you blow him up.
- 3:54SPEAKER_00: Maybe you blow him up.
- 3:56SPEAKER_00: We have to make that decision.
- 3:58SPEAKER_00: We blow him up.
- 4:00SPEAKER_00: We make a deal.
- 4:02SPEAKER_00: But the time is coming.
- 4:03SPEAKER_00: We hire, hire, right in Donald Trump.
- 4:07SPEAKER_00: Space not to love.
- 4:08SPEAKER_00: Donald Trump is the
- 4:09[music]
- 4:25SPEAKER_00: gone straight to number six.
- 4:26SPEAKER_00: F*** that guy.

- 4:56SPEAKER_00: Donald Trump Says Gasoline prices in Alaska are gonna tumble.
- 5:01SPEAKER_00: Be higher!
- 5:02SPEAKER_00: Higher!
- 5:03SPEAKER_00: Riding Donald Trump Space not to love Donald Trump Is a great disgrace, so be higher!
- 5:09SPEAKER_03: Higher!
- 5:15SPEAKER_02: The story is... Pointy man with the map.
- 5:17SPEAKER_02: And then our best friend.
- 5:19SPEAKER_02: So wet.
- 5:21SPEAKER_02: And voting.
- 5:21SPEAKER_02: I think I know this Donald Drumpf is saving the midterms for the Republican Party.
- 5:27SPEAKER_02: Oh, finally answer.
- 5:28SPEAKER_01: I'm going to guess the opposite of what Dave Foley said.
- 5:32SPEAKER_01: The story is President Drumpf is making the midterm elections all about him.
- 5:37SPEAKER_01: And once again, U.S. taxpayers are the ones footing the bill.
- 5:40SPEAKER_01: This week it came to light that Drumpf's Department
- 5:43SPEAKER_01: of Homeland Security has set aside $20 million
- 5:47SPEAKER_01: for pro-Drumpf TV commercials like this one running on Newsmax.
- 5:51SPEAKER_03: He's the toughest, most resilient person that I've ever met.
- 5:56SPEAKER_03: And nothing is going to stop him from fighting so hard for the country.
- 6:02SPEAKER_01: What is so upsetting about that commercial to a lot of people?
- 6:05SPEAKER_02: They put a big thing that says paid for by the American government.
- 6:09SPEAKER_02: And this is a crazy thing.
- 6:11SPEAKER_02: Some people still think it matters that that's illegal.
- 6:14SPEAKER_02: It's criminal.
- 6:17SPEAKER_02: It's a campaign ad.
- 6:18SPEAKER_02: He's making a lot of money while in office, and the people he's trying to excite are broke.
- 6:22SPEAKER_02: They don't have any money.
- 6:23SPEAKER_02: They can't pay for rent.
- 6:25SPEAKER_02: It's a bad move as president of the United States, but it doesn't surprise me.
- 6:28SPEAKER_02: In fact, they used actual footage from his campaign in an ad paid by the government.
- 6:35[music]
- 6:58SPEAKER_02: I think there ought to be a rule that you can't, well, there probably is a rule.
- 7:02SPEAKER_02: You can't spend public money to promote yourself.
- 7:06SPEAKER_03: You can give me a diamond ring, my friend, if it
- 7:09[music]
- 7:24SPEAKER_02: Trump's own lackeys are slamming,
- 7:25SPEAKER_02: his poll numbers are bad,
- 7:26SPEAKER_02: his TV ratings are worse,
- 7:28SPEAKER_02: which is why he's found a new and totally legal way to get his message out.
- 7:32SPEAKER_02: Just air campaign ads on national television using your taxpayer money.
- 7:37SPEAKER_02: The White House today is defending the Trump administration's use of millions
- 7:40SPEAKER_02: of your taxpayer dollars for a series of TV ads promoting President Trump all in
- 7:45SPEAKER_02: the run-up to the midterm elections.
- 7:47SPEAKER_02: And new ads hitting the airwaves this week.
- 7:49SPEAKER_02: Trump administration flaunts what it thinks are some of its biggest accomplishments.
- 7:53SPEAKER_02: But the ads were paid for by the U.S. government, and that's raising concerns on Capitol Hill.
- 7:58SPEAKER_02: Let me just show you one of them, because it's a 30-second spot.
- 8:01SPEAKER_02: On your left is the ad paid for by you, American taxpayers.
- 8:05SPEAKER_02: On the right is the ad paid for by Trump during his last campaign.
- 8:10SPEAKER_00: We will liberate America from these villains once and for all.
- 8:18SPEAKER_02: They literally took a campaign ad they used in 2024 and re-aired it
- 8:22SPEAKER_02: on TV using taxpayer dollars.
- 8:25SPEAKER_02: He's $2 billion richer than he was two years ago.
- 8:28SPEAKER_02: Is there anything this grub won't make us pay for?
- 8:31SPEAKER_02: If you went out to dinner with Drumpf,
- 8:33SPEAKER_02: he would order everything on the menu,
- 8:34SPEAKER_02: then say,
- 8:35SPEAKER_02: I forgot my wallet,
- 8:35SPEAKER_02: then ask you for 50 bucks, then put it in his wallet right in front of you.
- 8:40SPEAKER_02: We're paying for his ballroom,
- 8:41SPEAKER_02: his arch,
- 8:42SPEAKER_02: his fancy new Air Force One,
- 8:43SPEAKER_02: his tuition at the school for men who stand like weirdos.
- 8:49SPEAKER_02: Critics have said using taxpayer money to air campaign ads is unethical
- 8:53SPEAKER_02: and possibly illegal, and even Republicans are speaking out against it.
- 8:56SPEAKER_02: But Drumpf has a foolproof explanation.
- 8:59SPEAKER_02: They can't be campaign ads because he is not running for anything.
- 9:03SPEAKER_03: DHS is spending millions of dollars on new ads about you,
- 9:08SPEAKER_03: and your critics say those ads might violate federal propaganda laws.
- 9:12SPEAKER_03: Why should U.S. taxpayers aim for that?
- 9:14SPEAKER_00: Well, I'm not running for office, first of all.
- 9:16SPEAKER_00: And so the ads are...
- 9:18SPEAKER_00: You know, given by me, but I'm not running for office.
- 9:21SPEAKER_00: When I'm talking about making America great, making our country great, that's a countrywide ad.
- 9:27SPEAKER_00: That's an ad for the spirit of our country.
- 9:29SPEAKER_00: I'm not promoting a candidate.
- 9:31SPEAKER_00: I'm not promoting myself because I'm not running for office.
- 9:35SPEAKER_00: I'm promoting the country.
- 9:36SPEAKER_02: Sorry, that's an ad promoting the spirit of the country?
- 9:39SPEAKER_02: That ominous black and white ad?
- 9:42SPEAKER_02: With you lurking down a hallway while terrifying music plays?
- 9:46SPEAKER_02: If it's promoting anything, it's the spirit of Halloween.
- 9:49SPEAKER_03: I can give
- 9:49[music]
- 10:06SPEAKER_00: We are now less than 30 days away from the midterms, and you better be registered to vote.
- 10:11SPEAKER_00: Drumpf is expected to...
- 10:16SPEAKER_00: He's on the road.
- 10:18SPEAKER_00: He is, um...
- 10:20SPEAKER_00: Expected to travel every day from now until November 3rd as part of his plan to save
- 10:25SPEAKER_00: the Republican majority and his marriage.
- 10:28SPEAKER_00: According to the latest numbers from the failing New York Times,
- 10:32SPEAKER_00: Republicans are in deep trouble in the House and possibly in the Senate,
- 10:35SPEAKER_00: even in states.
- 10:36SPEAKER_00: But fear not,
- 10:40SPEAKER_00: Red Hats,
- 10:41SPEAKER_00: if dear old Uncle Scam can't earn your vote, he's going to buy it from you.
- 10:45SPEAKER_00: Our country is doing so well under Republican leadership that only I can make you this promise.
- 10:52SPEAKER_00: If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate,
- 10:56SPEAKER_00: I'm going to give all adult citizens in the United States of America $5,000.
- 11:04SPEAKER_00: That's right.
- 11:04SPEAKER_00: And Mexico is going to pay for it.
- 11:08SPEAKER_00: Now, first of all, that's our money.
- 11:10SPEAKER_00: You're not giving anyone anything.
- 11:13SPEAKER_00: That's you breaking open Eric's piggy bank and going, hey, dummy, here's your allowance.
- 11:17SPEAKER_00: That's what you're doing.
- 11:18SPEAKER_00: Also, if you're going to pretend to give money away, why $5,000?
- 11:22SPEAKER_00: Why not make it $5 million?
- 11:24SPEAKER_00: So if the Democrats win, you will have an economic depression, much like 1929.
- 11:32SPEAKER_00: If the Republicans win, you will each have $5,000 in your pocket.
- 11:39SPEAKER_00: Well, he's never lied to us before.
- 11:41SPEAKER_00: Let me tell you something, and let me be very clear.
- 11:44SPEAKER_00: Donald Drumpf is more likely to run a 5K than to give it to us.
- 11:49SPEAKER_03: If
- 11:49[music]
- 12:05SPEAKER_00: All right, I'm President Drumpf, and I approve this ramble.
- 12:08SPEAKER_00: We're getting bold out there, but not for long because I have a solution.
- 12:14SPEAKER_00: If the Republicans win,
- 12:16SPEAKER_00: I'll give everyone $5,000,
- 12:18SPEAKER_00: and that is not a bribe because I have no intention of following through on
- 12:22SPEAKER_00: that promise.
- 12:23SPEAKER_00: So just pretend I'm on the ballot, okay?
- 12:26SPEAKER_00: You have to use something called imagination.
- 12:30SPEAKER_00: Imagination makes a MAGA nation.
- 12:34SPEAKER_00: Wow, that's pretty good.
- 12:37SPEAKER_00: I can already see that written on the back of an obese woman's booty shorts
- 12:40SPEAKER_00: in dirty, disgusting Myrtle Beach.
- 12:43SPEAKER_00: What a hellhole this country is.
- 12:45SPEAKER_00: It's full of awful people.
- 12:46SPEAKER_00: So I know it's hard, but please vote for Republicans, okay?
- 12:50SPEAKER_00: And yes, that includes creepy Ken Paxton down there in Texas.
- 12:54SPEAKER_00: Goddamn, I hate that guy.
- 12:56SPEAKER_00: Look at that.
- 12:57SPEAKER_00: I don't know why I don't like him.
- 13:00SPEAKER_00: I do actually.
- 13:01SPEAKER_00: It's his eye.
- 13:02SPEAKER_00: Hate that eye.
- 13:04SPEAKER_00: You can't say that kind of thing anymore, but I can, and I do all the time.
- 13:08SPEAKER_00: Remember this one?
- 13:09SPEAKER_03: No, no, no.
- 13:10SPEAKER_03: Okay, okay.
- 13:12SPEAKER_03: What are you going to do about it?
- 13:14SPEAKER_03: Tell
- 13:15[music]
- 13:24SPEAKER_03: me, Lord.
- 13:27SPEAKER_03: Can't buy me.
- 13:28SPEAKER_03: Can't buy me.
- 13:29SPEAKER_03: Can't
- 13:30[music]
- 14:05SPEAKER_00: I love the inflation.
- 14:06SPEAKER_00: I don't think about American's financial situation.
- 14:09SPEAKER_00: When you have to pay a little bit more, you're at $4.
- 14:12SPEAKER_00: It's okay.
- 14:14SPEAKER_00: I'll never apologize.
- 14:15SPEAKER_00: Nothing bad can happen.
- 14:16SPEAKER_00: It can only good happen.
- 14:17SPEAKER_00: Saudi Arabia and Russia will be...
- 14:22SPEAKER_00: I've done a job as president.
- 14:24SPEAKER_02: Corruption!
- 14:29SPEAKER_02: His self-dealing has become so commonplace in this administration
- 14:33SPEAKER_02: that Drumpf thinks he can just use our money to air his campaign ads.
- 14:37SPEAKER_02: But even Republicans are breaking with him because his poll numbers are just so bad.
- 14:40SPEAKER_02: They're saying to Drumpf, Mr. President, sir.
- 14:43SPEAKER_00: You crazy, man.
- 14:44Can't find
- 14:44[music]
- 15:10SPEAKER_03: it.
- 15:27SPEAKER_01: So here's Drumpf with his defense of using taxpayer dollars.
- 15:31SPEAKER_00: These are ads for the country.
- 15:33SPEAKER_00: These are ads.
- 15:34SPEAKER_00: I'm not promoting, you have to understand, I'm not promoting a candidate.
- 15:38SPEAKER_02: Does that mean we have to send him a thank you card?
- 15:42SPEAKER_01: No, we're paying for
- 15:43SPEAKER_02: the ads.
- 15:44SPEAKER_02: Oh, he needs to send us a thank you card.
- 15:46SPEAKER_01: This is present to us.
- 15:48SPEAKER_01: Now, the ad campaigns are only measured by how effective they are
- 15:51SPEAKER_01: at spreading your message, of course.
- 15:53SPEAKER_01: And CNN has found that so far,
- 15:55SPEAKER_01: the White House has produced at least 13 different campaign-style ads,
- 16:01SPEAKER_01: and one upcoming spot even has the title God Made Drumpf.
- 16:07SPEAKER_03: Out of what?
- 16:11SPEAKER_01: I'm surprised the ad doesn't say, Drumpf made God.
- 16:17SPEAKER_01: Right now, the ad blitz is not working.
- 16:19SPEAKER_01: A new election forecast predicts
- 16:20SPEAKER_01: that House Republicans will almost definitely lose their majority this fall,
- 16:25SPEAKER_01: with anywhere from five to 15 House seats likely to
- 16:29[music]
- 16:46SPEAKER_01: Poll numbers are not in his favor.
- 16:48SPEAKER_01: How are the candidates that have been endorsed by Drumpf receiving him as of late?
- 16:53SPEAKER_02: This week, several Republicans in tight races across the country now distancing themselves
- 16:59SPEAKER_02: from President Drumpf.
- 17:01SPEAKER_02: Among them, Michigan's Mike Rogers.
- 17:04SPEAKER_00: The war with Iran needs to end and end quickly.
- 17:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Mike Rogers criticizing Trump is very notable because he's still polling
- 17:13SPEAKER_01: behind Democrat Abdul El-Sayed in a state that Drumpf won in 2024.
- 17:19SPEAKER_01: What other reasons might a Republican candidate have for not loving Drumpf?
- 17:25SPEAKER_01: He smells like butt.
- 17:27SPEAKER_02: Oh, gas is a gas.
- 17:30SPEAKER_02: The price of?
- 17:31SPEAKER_02: Oh, I thought he had gas.
- 17:34SPEAKER_02: Sorry.
- 17:35SPEAKER_01: Oh, would it be the big... Drumpf.
- 17:36SPEAKER_01: Party in Texas?
- 17:37SPEAKER_01: Points!
- 17:38SPEAKER_01: There we go.
- 17:39SPEAKER_01: Yes, it is.
- 17:40SPEAKER_01: In leaked audio this week,
- 17:41SPEAKER_01: Texas candidate Ken Paxson said that Drumpf convention
- 17:44SPEAKER_01: in Dallas last month actually hurt his poll numbers,
- 17:48SPEAKER_01: and Ken is not lying about Congratulations to Ken Paxton.
- 17:52SPEAKER_01: You have done it.
- 17:53SPEAKER_02: You are the least popular Texas GOP Senate nominee this century.
- 17:58SPEAKER_02: You've managed to do it.
- 17:59SPEAKER_02: And when I was looking at the data, no one else was even in the negative.
- 18:02SPEAKER_02: And you're at minus 16 points at this point.
- 18:05SPEAKER_02: This is record breaking for Texas.
- 18:11SPEAKER_02: I gotta say, it's almost like being a career criminal.
- 18:13SPEAKER_02: It doesn't stand for anything in the Republican Party anymore.
- 18:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it doesn't help at all.
- 18:18SPEAKER_01: Now, what does Drumpf think about the criticism from Kim Paxton?
- 18:22SPEAKER_02: I'm coming back and throwing another party
- 18:24SPEAKER_01: for you.
- 18:25SPEAKER_02: Because it's all about me and it's my party and I'm going to cry if I want to.
- 18:28SPEAKER_02: That's how Drumpf feels.
- 18:30SPEAKER_02: Because he went back.
- 18:31SPEAKER_02: This week.
- 18:32SPEAKER_02: What?
- 18:32SPEAKER_02: And he's like, I don't care.
- 18:34SPEAKER_02: I don't care about you.
- 18:35SPEAKER_02: I don't care about you.
- 18:36SPEAKER_02: I don't care about you.
- 18:37SPEAKER_02: I care about me.
- 18:38SPEAKER_02: No, he would look at the bigger picture and realize that he is the leader of
- 18:42SPEAKER_02: the Republican Party.
- 18:44SPEAKER_00: He could be a pain in the ass sometimes, I'll be honest.
- 18:47SPEAKER_00: Is he here, by the way?
- 18:48SPEAKER_00: Oh, there he is.
- 18:49SPEAKER_00: Good.
- 18:49SPEAKER_00: I didn't even know if he's here.
- 18:51SPEAKER_00: I don't care.
- 18:52SPEAKER_00: They're both such colossal pieces of shit.
- 18:55SPEAKER_00: It's amazing.
- 18:56SPEAKER_01: What do we think, panel?
- 18:58SPEAKER_01: Does Drumpf have the juice to rally his people one last time?
- 19:03SPEAKER_02: I feel confident That Drumpf should be out there on the campaign trail every day, every night.
- 19:10SPEAKER_02: He should not sleep.
- 19:12SPEAKER_02: He should not eat.
- 19:13SPEAKER_02: He should just be out there campaigning and talking about what a great job he's done
- 19:17SPEAKER_02: until these midterms are over.
- 19:19SPEAKER_02: Please, dear God, make him do it.
