	Did you ever think you would make it?
	I feel I'm supposed to take sweet victory.
	I know this life meant for me.
	Why would you bet on Goliath when we got bet David?
	Value payment, giving values contagious.
	This world of entrepreneurs, we get no value to hate it.
	I didn't run, homie, look what I become.
	I'm the one.
	Okay, so tell me, are we live or no?
	Is this officially live?
	Yes, no, yes?
	Okay.
	We got a crowd here in the house.
	Make some noise.
	Awesome.
	So we did it slightly different today.
	We said we're not going to sell tickets, but it's only 25 people that bought merch.
	We're able to bring a friend with them today, which is great to have you here today.
	We got some friends from the VT team that are also here.
	And then obviously tonight's the heavyweight matchup between two guys, right?
	One guy whose name is Joseph Biden, he's going to be going up against a guy named Donald J. Trump, which that's tonight.
	It's going to happen in and out.
	It's filled with a ton of people in audience.
	Really, they got nobody.
	This is zero.
	One person is going to be able to click.
	If you see your light go off, they can't hear you anymore.
	There's a bunch of rules they created.
	We'll talk about here in a minute, but there's a matter of fact, why don't we do this, Rob?
	Can you show us the rules on what they're going to be doing tonight during the debate, which showing the button, you're quiet, you're all this stuff.
	Watch this clip here.
	Tell me how you feel about this.
	Go ahead.
	Green lights.
	When they're on, they signal to the candidate his microphone is on.
	When the green lights are off, they signal to the candidate his microphone is off.
	Now I want to give you a sense of what it will look like for viewers at home if a candidate whose microphone is off interrupts a candidate whose microphone is on.
	So I'm standing at one podium and I'll ask Phil to come in and take the other podium.
	And so let's say I'm answering a question.
	My light is green and I'm speaking.
	Phil's microphone is off and his green lights are not illuminated.
	He's going to interrupt me as I'm speaking and this is what it will sound like.
	My volume remains constant while Phil's interruption can be difficult to understand.
	It seems like an airline opposition.
	My microphone is now on.
	Victor's microphone is off and he's going to interrupt me.
	My volume remains constant while Victor's interruption can be difficult to understand.
	CNN's production team has shared this demonstration with the campaigns earlier today and we're sharing it with you, our viewers, so everyone fully understands how tomorrow night will work.
	Now, we should note, by agreeing to participate in this debate, both campaigns and candidates have also agreed to abide by these rules.
	The CNN presidential debate airs live tomorrow night at 9 p.m. Eastern.
	What do you think about this?
	How do you feel about it?
	Tell me why you think it's lame.
	Why do you think it's lame?
	Free speech.
	Free speech?
	So what's wrong if they want to turn it off and you don't speak to be able to interrupt each other?
	Is that a bad thing?
	Is that a good thing?
	Actually, say it.
	I'm curious.
	What do you think?
	It depends if they control Trump.
	Who actually thinks it can be good, the fact that they're muted?
	Tell me why you think it can be good.
	I think that everyone needs a chance to express their opinion.
	And I think Donald Trump, who may be a little too much.
	Too pushy, is what you're saying.
	Okay, what would you say back there?
	I think it's going to help Trump because he's going to isolate Biden by himself to speak.
	He's going to embarrass himself.
	Okay.
	So then this is a question for you guys to be asking yourselves is how many of you buy into the idea that this was created with these guidelines by the Biden administration speaking with CNN to bring this guideline and this setup to Trump knowing he was going to say no to say that Trump's avoiding a debate.
	Who thinks that could have been the reason?
	Who actually believes that?
	Do you actually believe that?
	Okay.
	So you guys think this happened because they thought Trump was going to be so pissed that he was going to say, there's no way I'm doing this.
	And they're going to say this guy's bailing.
	He doesn't want to debate Trump.
	And then he didn't fall for the, that's kind of what you guys are thinking.
	What do you think, Vinny?
	What do you think?
	Well, first of all, I want you guys to know that for this entire week, have you ever heard this before?
	The president of the United States has not been presidenting.
	He's been at Camp David practicing for this one thing, to be the president.
	And I think when it comes down to this, history has shown I want to see, especially if it's a one-on-one, I think it shows you can argue, you could combat.
	Because think about it.
	Presidents are in rooms with leaders and Xi Jinping or Puin.
	You want some quiet mic.
	There's no mic shutting off.
	There's no, hey, I talk.
	Hey, you talk.
	I want them to go at it because guess what?
	I want to hear, I want to see the gloves come off.
	Because at the end of the day, this is a fight.
	We've seen four years of Trump.
	We've seen four years, almost four years of Biden.
	I want to hear it.
	Because if they're moderating and they're going to be shutting off, I don't think it's going to be a fair fight.
	I don't.
	I genuinely, I don't.
	And who knows what drugs and people, guys, and people always say they set the bar low.
	Who knows what they're going to be pumping into to Biden?
	Because guess what?
	If you drug him up, you give him Adderall, you give him whatever, B12 shot, whatever the hell they're on, and he's good for the debate.
	And Adam, I know what you're going to say because you want, you're like, give him the drugs.
	Give him the drugs.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Which is, which is, which is fun every day, not just today.
	But hear me out.
	It's fun.
	And we laugh or whatever.
	But if that's what you need to just make it for 90 minutes, you have no business being the president of the United States.
	Have you ever been to Miami?
	No, I have been to Miami.
	Half the people in Miami need that every single day.
	Yes, but think about it.
	I'm not respect out there.
	And say what you want about Trump.
	Say what you want about Trump.
	All of us have been seeing this guy travels the freaking country and stands up there.
	He just did a thing in Philly.
	I want to say a week ago.
	He was up there for 90 minutes just freeballing, like spitting, just talking to people and doing this thing.
	And I think this country, guys, we're not dumb.
	Like whoever you are, whoever you're voting for, you guys don't feel and see what's been like, you don't see it.
	Like enough of the playing games, he can do it.
	Oh, he's an old man.
	Oh, his son.
	It's a love for his son.
	No, no.
	It's a shit show.
	We have to say it for what it is.
	And I would listen, put Trump 1,000%.
	That's it.
	I'm going Trump.
	Well, we know that, Vinny.
	No, I'm saying even the debate.
	The debate tonight.
	Who do you think is going to win?
	Who do you think is going to win?
	It's not who's going to win or who do you want to win.
	The name of the game tonight is don't lose.
	So if you're Biden, look somewhat alive.
	Oh, shit.
	He made, he did it.
	He spoke.
	He was there.
	He did it.
	Like, don't literally fall down the stairs.
	Don't stumble.
	Don't just put it in.
	But isn't that set the bar low?
	The bar has already made it.
	He made it.
	Well, no, the bar is not low for Trump because he's a dude.
	What are you talking about?
	Look at all the shit that he's gone through from 2016 to get to where he's at right now on the stage.
	All their tactics failed.
	How many felonies and this and collusion, all that bullshit?
	We are here now.
	He made it.
	He survived to say that, hey, at least, you know, Biden looked alive tonight.
	What the hell?
	I don't want my leader to just be like, oh, one night he looked good.
	When 364 days, he looks like shit.
	Yeah.
	Obviously, the audience agree with that?
	Okay.
	I understand.
	That's why there's a lot of people who are politically homeless these days.
	So this is people know this, but let me just state the obvious.
	This is now beginning what is called the kickoff of the general election, right?
	So up until literally today, it's been primary season.
	And how do primaries work?
	You play to your base.
	So Trump is rallying up the base.
	He's going to the rallies.
	He's doing his thing.
	He's having parades.
	He's signing chicks' tits.
	It does his thing, okay?
	And God bless you.
	Biden's out there, you know, looking, you know, doing the robot, standing, standing still.
	He's breakdancing.
	Like that, you're playing to your base.
	He's telling girls, you know, we're going to support you.
	Abortion, Roe versus Wade.
	But this is the beginning of when you have to pivot and move to the middle and begin what your election, your general election strategy will be.
	We all know that 40 plus percent of America is already in Trump's camp.
	We know that.
	And we already know that somehow 40 plus percent of America is in Biden's camp.
	Do the math.
	There's actually something called the double haters.
	This is the election where more people hate their two options than any election in modern history.
	People are not happy with their options.
	This is what we got, America.
	I've been betting everybody left and right that Biden will be there on stage and here he is.
	People are going to have to pay.
	But what's the point?
	At this point, you're going to have to, what's called move the movable middle.
	There's how many people voted in the last election?
	I think 81 million for Biden, 76 million for Trump.
	A lot of dead people, too.
	A lot of deceased people.
	Allegedly.
	Allegedly.
	This time around, people are not excited for this election.
	So what we know is that there's six swing states.
	You don't have to win millions of people's votes now.
	Listen, bro, you got to move 100,000 different people in six different swing states.
	So people in Pennsylvania, people in Michigan, people in Wisconsin, people in Georgia, people in Nevada, you know what's up.
	By the way, those people, there's going to be hundreds, follow the money, hundreds of millions of dollars of ads playing both sides the greatest hits.
	January 6th, Trump's a criminal.
	Those people are going to be inundated with indoctrination if they'd already noted it.
	And then there's also Trump's going to do the same and just show Biden losing to a staircase again or Biden losing to a bicycle.
	So let me ask you a question.
	Okay, so we already know that the gameplay of the tactic of Joe Biden is going to be January 6th, insurrection.
	What's another one?
	Abortion.
	No, abortion, but then convicted felon.
	But Joe Biden, what is Joe Biden going to say that he has achieved?
	What has this administration accomplished?
	If it's letting illegals come in from all walks of life to raise up crime, to literally, this is in the news, every single day I see this, every single day.
	I know you guys do too.
	Girls, 13, 14, 12 being raped and murdered by illegals and nobody says shit.
	How many times is Alejandro Mayorkis going to go to Congress and they're going to sit there and be like, you did this, you did this.
	Zero answers, questions answered, and nothing happens.
	Let's play devil's ass, Adam.
	You're Joe Biden's camp.
	What are you telling him to tout that he's done that's positive?
	No, no, leave Trump out of that.
	I don't want to hear anything about Trump, COVID, economy, nothing.
	What has he done?
	Well, there's a phrase in politics that if you have to sell what you've done, you probably haven't done a good job.
	So it's pure emotion at this point.
	So people, if you ask the average person out there, what's inflation in America?
	People are like, bro, inflation's like 25%.
	It's actually 3.5%.
	Did you know that?
	The stock market.
	The stock market is pumping.
	Well, the stock market's actually up 25%.
	So people don't feel that it's actually going the right way in America.
	People don't actually feel that things are actually improving in America.
	But if you look at the data, things are doing okay.
	Unemployment is at 4%.
	Stock market's doing all right.
	But they also say there's a difference between Wall Street and Main Street.
	And Main Street just ain't feeling what Joe Biden is doing with Bidenomics.
	And I see what you're saying, but and I get that for, and this is my opinion.
	That's people that are making the money.
	The average person, the people that I know, the people that I talk to, they are struggling when their groceries are four times as much.
	I don't know if you guys saw this video that was going viral yesterday.
	This dude filled up a cart at a shopping, like a Publix or something at his house, and he didn't buy it.
	He went back, Adam.
	It's been almost three and a half years.
	And he went to go click.
	He's like, oh, there's still stuff in that cart.
	It was four times what it was.
	And he obviously didn't buy it.
	But nothing, dude, nothing is going right.
	Now you're walking to kind of what I do for a living, which is follow the money and personal finance.
	Following it.
	I'll tell you one thing.
	That guy, he wasn't just rich and life was great four years ago.
	Now he's broke.
	No.
	Two-thirds of America lives paycheck to paycheck for the last 50 years.
	So yeah, he cannot afford groceries today, but I guarantee you wasn't exactly bawling out at Whole Foods four years ago.
	So he's complaining where he is today, but he wants to blame the president.
	He wants to blame what people want to blame Trump.
	People want to blame Biden.
	Don't worry about what's going on in the White House.
	Worry about what's going on in your house.
	Control the controllable.
	And that guy right there is complaining about what's going on in America.
	But what did he do with it?
	So let me ask you a question, Adam.
	You were, and let's just, really quick, we're going to pull back the clock.
	You voted.
	And by the way, I'm not talking crap or judging.
	I'm just trying to figure, like, you know, you were anti-Trump.
	You voted for Hillary.
	You voted for Biden.
	But where you are, Adam, right now, is your life better today than it was when Trump was in before COVID?
	Bro, my life was great under Obama.
	My life was great under Trump.
	My life was great under Biden.
	And my life will be great regardless of who's the president.
	And that's what people have to understand.
	It's called personal development.
	It's called personal finance.
	It's called personal responsibility.
	It's called self-esteem.
	If you think Joe Biden or Donald Trump or Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton is going to change your life, you're dead wrong.
	Change your own life.
	At the same time, I can recognize that if you take the four years of what Biden has done, compare it with the four years of what Trump has done, it's a no-brainer.
	Like Biden has failed the American people.
	Yes.
	But I'm not relying on Trump to come in to start having success.
	You got to do it on your own.
	Well, I mean, he's.
	But speaking of success, PBD's back.
	How are you doing, PPD?
	So I want to show you guys a video.
	How many of you guys remember when Zidane, who knows who Zidane is?
	Anybody know Zidane?
	So who is Zidane?
	Who is headbutt guy?
	What do you know about Zidane?
	Who knows?
	What's okay?
	So what's the famous moment with Zidane?
	What's the famous moment with Zidane?
	He headbutted a guy that apparently said something about his family.
	Do you guys know that?
	Anybody knows?
	In the World Cup, after they beat Brazil, he headbutts a guy in the championship final, and it ends up costing them the, what do you call it, World Cup to France?
	Does anybody know why this guy headbutt the other guy?
	Do you know it?
	So don't say it.
	You know the story.
	Does anybody else know the story why he did?
	Okay, I want you to watch this video, Rob.
	I send it to you.
	And you're going to see what I'm going to bring up with this and the debate tonight.
	Rob, I just texted the video.
	If you do have it, if it's ready, watch this.
	And it is emotional at the end, but there's a lesson in it as well.
	And I never knew this until about a week ago.
	Go ahead and play this clip.
	Stop him.
	So they used the most ridiculous.
	Go back a little bit, Rob.
	Go back a little bit.
	They couldn't stop him.
	So they used the most ridiculous ploy in football history.
	How could they stop a man who had destroyed a top Brazilian team before the final?
	The entire Brazilian team declared, We didn't play against France.
	We played against Zidane.
	How could they stop a man who had scored a penalty against the best buffon with a penenka in the World Cup final?
	Their coach asked Madarazzi to mark him throughout the match, but he couldn't stop him.
	He knew there was only one way to stop him.
	In the 110th minute, Matarazzi grabbed Zidane's jersey with his hand.
	Zidane said to him, Do you want my jersey?
	He was just joking with him.
	But Matarazzi insulted his sick sister, who was in the hospital at that moment.
	Zidane couldn't control himself.
	He head-butted him and was sent off with a red card.
	Sure, Italy won the match, but with Zidane, they couldn't have won that World Cup.
	But he chose to be a legend who defended his family's honor.
	So what do you think?
	Wow.
	Did you know that story?
	I thought it was something about religion, but by the way, who's taking the discussion?
	You knew that?
	You knew that story.
	So his sister's in a hospital and he says, you want my shirt?
	Apparently, the guy says, no, I want your sister.
	Oh, my God.
	Okay.
	So how many guys are men here who has a sister?
	Who's got a sister?
	Who's watching this and you got a sister?
	What do you do if somebody like this says something about your sister with punching?
	How many of you guys just right now, your temperature?
	I'm turning red.
	You've got a punch in his face.
	Your temperature goes up.
	You're like, oh, where is this guy?
	I want to find him right now.
	Let alone if he's in hospital.
	So my guess is when they asked Biden, coin toss, you want to be on the left side or the right side, he went right side.
	And then when they said, Trump, you get to pick and choose who goes first, who goes last, Trump's fixed what?
	Last.
	Now, do you really think Biden cares whether he's standing on the right side or the left side?
	He's just happy to be standing.
	Do you really think anybody cares if he's on the left side or the right side?
	Us, no.
	The public, no.
	Who cares which side you're like, do you have an edge?
	Like, you know, sometimes like some women, they're like, no, it's my better side.
	It's my this side.
	When you're a guy, you're screwed up.
	So you're like, whatever side you want, I'll take a picture with you, right?
	But this is not like Biden's like, I'm 81 years old.
	My better side is a right side.
	I'm convinced they did that.
	So Trump would pick.
	They know what Trump's going to pick, not going first.
	Of course.
	Trump's a counterpuncher.
	So they're going to pick.
	Trump's going to go last to do what?
	To do exactly what they did to Zidane, to get under skin.
	So then the question becomes the following.
	I just ran a poll a minute ago, and this is a question I asked.
	And I'm curious to know what you guys are going to be saying.
	The poll I ran, if you can pull up the poll, Rob, so everybody in the audience can see this.
	I ran a poll saying, how many times do you think President Biden is going to use the phrase convicted felon tonight?
	Not once, three times, four to six times, above six times.
	What do you guys think?
	Who here says zero to three times?
	Like someone around one or three times.
	Who says four to six times here?
	Okay.
	Who says six plus times tonight?
	Okay.
	So Rob, just click on one of those to see.
	76% agree with you on how many times he's going to use it.
	I think the only strategy that they have tonight, if they want to be Trump, is to try to find a way to get under his skin.
	If they do, and Trump gets caught up in the emotion and reacts the way that he does, then there's going to be ways of, see, see what happened because historically, how many guys here watch debates of previous years?
	Who actually watches debates of previous years?
	Okay.
	My son is sitting there, right?
	And my son and I, we like to watch older debates.
	And we'll kind of sit there and we'll go through it.
	In every debate, there is a fumble.
	Brandon and I, I don't know where Brandon's at.
	Brandon and I were just talking about this right now about the fumble.
	Can anybody tell us what was the fumble with Kennedy and Nixon debate?
	I can tell you.
	Go ahead.
	It was the first presidential debate that was televised.
	That's right.
	The revolution will be televised.
	And if you were watching on TV, you thought that JFK won because he was good looking and Nixon was sweating a little bit.
	A little stubble five o'clock shadow.
	But if you were listening on radio, like half of America was, they actually thought that Nixon won the debate.
	Yeah.
	So that was the biggest thing right there.
	So, in other words, you would look very good today if you were debating.
	But you got a five o'clock shot.
	I'm a little bit of a Nixon.
	I'm a JFK Democrat.
	Melon Monroe, what was the moment with Bush Sr. and Dukakis?
	Oh, Bush Sr. and Dukakis.
	There was a couple of them.
	Oh, that was the commercial Dukakis?
	Right.
	No, not the hate.
	He did it in the debate.
	They asked him a question about the death penalty and his wife.
	You remember that moment?
	What did he ask?
	This is a President Dukakis.
	If there's a death penalty and your wife is kind of caught up and she is guilty and she's going to get the death penalty, he gave the logical, cold answer.
	And women are like, wait a minute, if this guy was my husband, he would.
	He said he was going to kill his wife?
	Because he had to be politically.
	I got to kill my wife.
	I'm sorry, guys.
	I got to do it.
	Then we asked Bush against Clinton.
	Senior against Clinton.
	Does anybody know what the fumble was there?
	Bush Sr. versus Clinton.
	What was the fumble?
	Do you remember?
	Yeah, that he allowed Ross Perot on stage?
	No.
	The fumble was when he did this.
	He checked his African-American lady asked a question about national debt.
	And he says, you don't think I feel the debt, Rob.
	Is this the one?
	No, this isn't the one.
	That's Dukakis.
	That's a death penalty.
	Oh, can you play this?
	Oh, by the way, it's three minutes and 21 seconds.
	Can you find where it's at?
	Because this answer is so cold, it's insane.
	So anyway, Bush Sr. goes like this.
	Cold-blooded.
	While the lady's asking a question, he goes like this.
	And they're like, wait a minute, you don't have time for a voter to kind of tell him your situation, your position.
	He says, you don't think I feel what the national debt is?
	You don't think I feel the problem?
	And then you have Ford versus Carter is when Ford says, Soviet Union will never have domination over Eastern Europe.
	And the moderator's like, uh-uh, President Ford, you sure you're saying that the Soviet Union doesn't have any control over Eastern Europe?
	What are you talking about, right?
	Okay, that's game over.
	Al Gore against Bush.
	Does anybody remember Al Gore against Bush?
	When Al Gore comes and stands over Bush and he's kind of trying to bully him and Bush does this one look.
	He looks at his feet and he goes back to the debate.
	Yeah.
	Right.
	And then what's the Clinton-Trump one?
	What was the highlight of the Clinton-Trump?
	This is an easy one.
	What about you?
	You'd be in jail because you'd be in jail.
	That's the best one.
	And that was it.
	That's my job.
	It's over.
	By the way, tonight, that moment can't happen.
	Exactly.
	Because tonight, he can't do because you'd be in jail.
	None of that stuff works because he's muted.
	Anyways, we can get a couple of these other guys.
	My only feedback would be: if Trump stays on four years to four years, he's going to do his counterpunch stuff and entertains and is kind of in the playful mode that he's in right now.
	I think it's going to be slam dunk tonight if he doesn't let Joe Biden get under his skin tonight.
	Pell, let me ask you a question.
	How much of what happens tonight?
	Because, you know, I don't think it's going to be that unless Joe Biden literally falls apart.
	And I think, I don't know, either they're hoping for it.
	I mean, we saw Gavin Newsome was in the building at least.
	We saw him.
	I saw him on X showing up to the building.
	How much of tonight and the success of what happens tonight is actually going to make voters go, you know what?
	I'm still going to go, regardless of everything that's happening and the country's falling apart, the fact that Joe Biden survived and did well, I'm going to vote for him.
	Like, how much do you think that's going to actually change their vote on what's happening with the country?
	So, meaning, like, even if he shows up and he crushes it, is he still going to win the vote or not?
	He's not going to win your vote.
	I honestly, there's a, and by the way, Dukakis, let me correct myself.
	On Dukakis, Dukakis was so anti-death penalty that they said, what if a man rapes your wife?
	Yeah.
	What would you want?
	And he's like, no, I'm anti-death penalty.
	That's the thing.
	He didn't want to kill his wife.
	Yeah, yeah.
	He was kind of like.
	You wouldn't want to kill the guy.
	No, no, no.
	I get it was more that.
	So correction, I wanted to put that out there.
	But you know, there's a part of people that are saying what tonight is all about is the fact that this is a like a tryout for Biden to see if he's going to stay in it or not.
	Like, meaning if he, because you know who else showed up tonight to the debate?
	Did they show you the video yet or no?
	Slick, the slick.
	You know, show him the clip, Rob, who showed up to the debate tonight.
	He was like, if he.
	Here's who's in a debate tonight.
	Vinny showed this to us in the back room and got it.
	This guy was.
	Look at this little snake in the grass.
	Look at him.
	Look at him.
	Like the snake that he is.
	Look at him.
	That's the future guy.
	Allegedly.
	Allegedly, Vinny.
	So he's there tonight.
	So what is he doing there tonight?
	Tonight was a draft pick.
	By the way, Bronnie James is going to the Lakers.
	Yeah.
	LeBron James.
	Second Bronnie.
	We'll be playing this.
	It's altogether coincidence.
	Not Branch.
	LeBron had no say in this matter.
	He actually didn't even know they were drafting him.
	That's right.
	He wasn't even watching.
	So then the question becomes: maybe the backup center showed up tonight.
	Knowing if he doesn't make it, the next first-round draft pick is there ready to go.
	Light it up.
	Opening statement.
	I feel President Biden's been one of the greatest presidents we've ever had to overcome the challenges that we had the last few years after COVID with the travesty the previous president did.
	And I've been loyal to him since he's been such a great loyal man.
	And he called me and he asked me if I would be willing to do this.
	I said anything for you, Mr. President.
	And I've never even thought about becoming a president.
	And I love being the governor of the state of California.
	But if you ask me to have kind of a responsibility, even though my wife and I, we talked about it, we really didn't want to do this because we got a great life in California, but anything for the country, you, Mr. Biden.
	And yes, I will gladly be the nominee for the Democrats.
	Can you visualize that script?
	That's what actually happened.
	I was actually getting mad at you because I pictured him.
	I'm like, I hate him.
	And, Pat, you know what he's going to say?
	I guarantee he's going to say, I don't want to run for president.
	I have to.
	Yeah.
	And then his tongue's going to come up by me.
	But here's the question, though.
	Here's the question.
	Let me give you my weird side.
	I am hoping Biden does good tonight.
	Why?
	Because if he does good tonight, I would much rather go get you want the face off to be against Biden.
	That's what you want history to be.
	I hope Biden does good tonight.
	I hope, I don't know, people are speculating he's going to be on DECA, D-Ball, TRT, HRT, Clenbutyrol, and Show Roll on whatever he's going to do.
	Whether he is or not, this is no drug testing, and this is the NFL or the, you know, all these other sports.
	But I hope he has maybe a nice cup of coffee and whatever else he does in it.
	And I hope it's a good show.
	I mean, Pat, they found cocaine in the White House.
	What makes you think that's his or his son?
	Why would you assume automatically maybe someone left it there?
	You actually make it.
	And you know what?
	You're right.
	Because none of the cameras are.
	How naive could you be?
	Yeah, you're right.
	Why would you be so spec, you know, naive and just jump into conclusions?
	I sit here correctly.
	You're missing that.
	Seriously.
	Hunter Biden.
	Guys, forgive me for Vinny taking that position right there.
	It's so offensive sometimes.
	I'm sorry.
	I don't know why you do that.
	You missed the ball on that one.
	Hold it together.
	Hunter Biden would never do cocaine.
	He's a crack guy.
	You're doing cool.
	It's not his thing, bro.
	You do have a point.
	I have a little respect.
	You do have a point.
	But somebody sent me, by the way, somebody sent me all the images.
	I didn't want it.
	I'm just a vessel.
	They just sent me stuff.
	I saw the contents of the Hunter Biden laptop.
	And Adam, you're wrong.
	There was cocaine everywhere.
	It was bad.
	He was cooking.
	No, it was.
	Turn into.
	Yeah, I think, you know, if you're watching BBD podcast, you know that I've been vocal that I do not think that there's going to be a great switch.
	I don't think that there's two Joe Bidens.
	I think that they are riding with Biden.
	Whether they lose or win, they're going with this guy.
	And if you go down the rabbit hole and if you think that this is one big bait and switch, I can see why that would be.
	And it's actually a makes him an even weaker candidate.
	The fact that there's still this ongoing conversation of what this switch will be.
	But if you ask anybody on the inside, you know, the calls coming from inside the house, everybody in the White House is like, no, that's that's our guy.
	Like, stop talking about this.
	This is our guy.
	So I do agree that there's going to be a great test today.
	And it's not just so easy.
	Like, hey, Biden, you're out.
	Can we get the right-handed pitcher?
	Gavin Newsom, you're in here.
	There's something called delegates.
	There's something called super delegates.
	They actually got to go through the states.
	It's not as easy as just like bringing the backup pitcher.
	It'd be easier for the Democrats to do that.
	And I also agree with you that Trump, based on approval ratings, net approval ratings, has actually surpassed Biden at this point.
	Not a good look for Biden.
	People are saying, people are saying that these are the only two candidates that each other could beat.
	Meaning, if Joe Biden ran against DeSantis or a Vivek, the age and the energy would be so palpable to see.
	They're like, oh my God, we can't vote for the old guy.
	All right, let's keep Trump in there.
	Like there's Democrat strategists who have basically said, no, no, no, we want Trump.
	And there's clearly Republican strategists that are like, nah, we don't want Gavin.
	We don't want Michelle Obama.
	We want the old decrepit guy.
	So that's why they call it the double hater election.
	That these are the only guys each other is going to actually beat.
	This is what we got.
	How hard would it be?
	Let's just say, how hard.
	We see what he does tonight.
	Let's say he falls apart and the Democrats are just like, he's not the guy.
	How hard would it be to release something from like the laptop or something and be like, yo, he actually has done illegal stuff and they put a charge on Biden.
	They impeach him.
	And they're like, yo, we're moving on.
	It's not that hard.
	You make it as if the bait and switch is like, oh, look over here.
	Look at Gavin.
	Gavin Newsom is at the bottom.
	It's not hard to do what?
	The bait and switch.
	But I'm saying, it's not hard to say, oh, by the way, the Hunter Biden laptop, which now they have said for a fact is real.
	It's taken them seven, eight years.
	So eight years.
	You already got to bring Israel into this, bro.
	Did I say Israel?
	But what I'm saying is, how hard is it?
	Oh, you said it's real?
	It's real.
	How hard is it for them now?
	In two senses, just what?
	Adam, in a month, in a month.
	Whatever that happens on this debate, in a month, they go, oh my God, look what we found on the laptop.
	He did all this stuff with.
	It's fun to speculate, but I try to be a pragmatist and actually face reality in the face.
	Well, what do you mean?
	Who's always debating tonight?
	We're about to see in an hour how he does.
	Less than an hour.
	And by the way, it could be as simple as him being in the audience, just like Trump said the VP nominee will be in the audience today.
	Yes.
	So Trump's got about 82 people in the audience to throw everybody off to the match.
	It's one of the 82, you know, and it's like, which one is this going to be?
	In regards to being the VP.
	Do you have any kind of thoughts on who the VP is?
	Obviously, I know it's going to be a guy.
	You think so?
	So Stefanik is out.
	Tulsi is out.
	But mind you, though, I wanted, I don't want Stefani.
	I wanted Tulsi Gavin.
	All right.
	If I had to guess, and it's a very strong guess, I would guess.
	And I know Adam's guy is the Burnham, Doug?
	Doug Burnham.
	Don't say his name right, buddy.
	Doug Bergham.
	I would say, I'm going to say if wegram Maswami is going to be his VP pick.
	Take it to the bank.
	What do you think?
	Look at those odds real quick.
	Tim Scott is at the top.
	Doug Bergham is second.
	This is Vegas.
	JD Vance is third.
	Rubio, then Carson, then Huckabee, then Tulsi, then Elise Stefanik Vivek is 25 to 1.
	I'm taking that bet.
	Yeah.
	I'm taking it.
	I'm taking it, PPD.
	Why am I going to go?
	I'll tell you why it doesn't matter.
	I don't think it matters who Trump VP is because Trump more than anybody does not get into the identity politics game.
	Trump could be like, you, Chick, hi, Jake.
	You're my new running mate.
	Like, hey, buddy, what's your name?
	You're my, like, it's Trump.
	It's Trump.
	It's Trump.
	Whoever he selects, whether it's Sleepy Ben Carson or Excitable Vivek or my guy, Doug Bergam, who got his ankle broke to playing basketball in the presidential elections and was out there with one leg up like he's in doing a dance in Miami.
	He doesn't care.
	He'll run with Pence.
	Run with any single person on this thing, with the exception of Nikki Haley.
	I don't think he's picking her.
	So I do think it's going to be this guy, Bergham.
	I don't think he cares if it's a man or a woman.
	I think he wants someone who's loyal and down for the cause and is going to be a flag carrier for the Trump 2024 campaign.
	On the flip side, we know that Biden plays identity politics.
	He basically said, I don't even want the best man for the job.
	I don't want the best woman for the job.
	I'm picking an African-American female who checks the DEI woke checklist.
	And calmly, if you talk shit about me on stage, you're my gal.
	So it's just totally different.
	Trump doesn't really play identity politics.
	However, it's ironic that he's labeled the racist.
	He's labeled the sexist.
	It's kind of interesting to see what the media has done to disparage Trump, even though he's not the one doing what they say he is doing.
	As a die-hard Donald Trump supporter, how does that make you feel?
	I mean, look, you know, Pat, I've been red-pilled.
	What do you want from me, buddy?
	I mean, come on now.
	Yeah.
	Not that kind of red-pilled, guys.
	But can I show you something?
	This might be a good time.
	Here we go.
	You know that there's no props.
	Getting married.
	Yes.
	Get married, guys.
	Sir, sir, would you come out of your game, man?
	There's no props in the debate tonight.
	His future wife in the room.
	Is there somebody here who's going to finally meet this girl?
	No, there's this.
	This is actually a pretty big deal.
	I brought you something, PBD.
	You know, they said there's no props.
	Vinny, can you?
	You don't know how to read, do you?
	No.
	Okay, so I'm going to have pictures.
	Are there pictures in it?
	This is something.
	This is my voter identification card.
	I want you to see this because I think it's a testament to where we're at in America today.
	You want to read it or do you want to read it?
	What's the pat?
	What's my party affiliation?
	I know what it is.
	No, but it's the difference between seeing and believing.
	And what year did I register for that?
	National Socialist Party.
	Yep, there it is.
	Yeah, I mean, that makes sonjo.
	You caught me.
	03.
	Socialist, is that what you want me to say?
	Yes.
	If you want to zoom in, you want me to come zoom in to see the socialists?
	Let's see.
	But it's got your social on there.
	I don't want to do that.
	I don't want to do that.
	But anyway, so what's going to read it?
	Just from the fact that you're part of the socialist party.
	What do you want me to do with that?
	You're funny.
	Who actually believes this guy was a part of the socialist party?
	Look at that.
	Even they're believing it.
	There's a good one.
	There's one guy with good teeth.
	Independent party.
	A guy who doesn't know what's left from his life.
	The Independent Party of Florida as of 03.
	Yes.
	So I think it's by the way.
	Get a dozen, maybe like a couple cookies from the back.
	Yes.
	That's okay with you.
	Maybe this guy's looking for a good.
	Now, here's a question, though.
	How many points?
	How many times have you voted for an independent president or Republican president?
	What do you mean, an independent president?
	Exactly what I said.
	You're part of an independent party.
	You're part of an independent party.
	PBD, I see what you're doing.
	And you're walking right into my trap.
	You walked right into it.
	Do it.
	You did it.
	Go ahead and do it.
	Because you're saying, how many times have you actually voted for a Republican?
	Yes.
	President.
	You know the answer.
	How many times?
	The answer is zero.
	Okay.
	But things have changed.
	Right.
	You know, the most powerful things in the world.
	You got to be careful who you're hanging out with because they can have influence over you.
	That's true.
	By the way, I keep my voter registration card, Independent Party of Florida, in my Declaration of Independence, Vinny.
	Here we go.
	Read this.
	Give it to me.
	Yeah.
	That's right.
	The Declaration of Mention of the Constitution.
	There it is right there.
	But I think it's a sign of the times, PBD, that there's a lot of people who have seen what's happened to the Democratic Party.
	Like RFK, I would love to see this guy on stage tonight.
	Would love to see.
	How many guys would want to see RFK on stage tonight to talk to both candidates?
	No?
	All right.
	All right.
	Somebody's forgot how to clap out there.
	I get it.
	But I think there's a lot of people in America who were JFK Democrats or even Clinton Democrats who are like, what is this party all about these days?
	Like, you're more concerned about abortion, chicks with dicks, and DEI than the economy and immigration and actually getting our country together.
	And I think that's the problem with the Democratic Party.
	I didn't realize they were having fun.
	I know it's still prior to the muffs.
	Come on.
	Seriously.
	Are you just as offended as I am?
	I'm so mad at him.
	Tico.
	Tico, did you hear the bad words?
	Tico's one of the smartest kids I know.
	I'm super proud of your son, Tico.
	But I think there's a lot of people like me who were not exactly excited about Biden in 2020, but they're like, ah, there's so many people who are just over Trump.
	But I think what we've realized, if you can remove emotion from it and actually act like a stoic and be like, yeah, Trump talks so much shit and he's annoying.
	I love it.
	But the policies is kind of where you got to focus.
	And if you look at Biden's policies, there's three wars going all around the world, potentially something else going on.
	Whether you want to talk inflation, want to talk economy, the border is an absolute mess.
	But they're worried about democracy.
	And I think there's a lot of people that are like, yeah, don't believe your lying eyes.
	We're not.
	There's a lot of people who are, whether they're independents or Democrats.
	Say it.
	If you want the press secretary job, just do it.
	Look at the camera and say, President Trump, I think I would be one hell of a press secretary for you.
	My name is Adam Sawsnake.
	Which camera?
	Which camera I got?
	Pick out any one of them.
	Donald Trump, if you're never able to make it to the stage, then one day you'll be.
	I'm here for you, buddy.
	I think there's a lot of people that are waking up today.
	So, Adam, if the vote happened today, Biden or Trump, who are you voting for, being dead serious?
	I would vote for Trump.
	Yes, Adam.
	And you know what?
	And you might tell them, what is this?
	A fraternity hazing party?
	Like, okay.
	You got me, guys.
	It's cool.
	I get it.
	And to all the Democrats, we're doing the elephant walk in the back of the club, guys.
	To all the liberals out there, that they're crying and they're screaming and they're so mad, PBD, that Trump, he can come.
	He's going to win again.
	And he's Hiller.
	If they didn't cheat and they didn't mess with him, they didn't do all the shit that he did, that they did, he'd be leaving in November.
	You would have been done.
	You never would have heard from Trump again.
	But now it's payback time because now it's now everybody's watching.
	And thank God for Elon Musk.
	If it wasn't for Elon Musk, you wouldn't be able to see videos of like a Gavin Newsom show up or videos of them if they're going to do any cheating or anything.
	Because now we have that platform and now we could see it.
	Here's a clip of what Newsom had to say when he was asked about why he's there.
	Go ahead, Rob.
	Look at that hair.
	Perfect.
	He's got great hair.
	I don't even understand the context of that.
	This is the president of the United States running for re-election.
	He's our guy.
	And that's part of the diversion tactic to continue to sort of muddy the waters on all that and that nonsensical speculation.
	It's just like the absurdity of who's going to get an injection shot.
	I mean, this is farcical.
	It's serious stuff.
	Democracy, free liberty rights.
	And to see it trivialized as we're trivializing and even having these conversations.
	What a snake.
	Really distressing to me as an American citizen, not just as a Democrat.
	Governor, do you?
	Ugh.
	How good of a poker player do you think he is?
	It's so...
	So good.
	How good of a poker player like to be able to look at you as good as he does and it's like, this is serious stuff with him.
	How do you not realize this is serious stuff?
	You're asking me silly questions like that.
	Why would you ask me a question like that?
	But yeah, I mean, listen, who knows?
	Everything is about speculation.
	Tonight, we're going to find out if, I guess one of the main questions is, do you remember Megan Kelly opening question?
	Okay, Rob, can you pull this up?
	This was like a mic drop moment, okay?
	Where he kind of goes like this.
	And you know, when he's doing this, you know, everybody's going to be.
	He's loading up the guns.
	When somebody's like, your hand goes like this, they're about to swap.
	When he goes like this, I mean, it's coming, right?
	Watch his shoulders tonight when he goes like this.
	He wants to say something.
	That's his tail.
	Like in Peter.
	It's Trump's tail, right?
	But the question was asked, Rob, can you?
	You've called women dogs, pigs, this, that, the other.
	And then he's like, only Rosie O'Donnell.
	Rob, do you have it or you can't find it?
	I'm looking right now.
	Okay.
	It should be somewhere around there.
	I think this is it, Rob.
	This it?
	I think so.
	Okay, go ahead and play this clip.
	I mean, this is obviously greatest hits.
	Go ahead.
	Mr. Trump.
	One of the things people love about you is you speak your mind and you don't use a politician's filter.
	However, that is not without its downsides, in particular when it comes to women.
	You've called women you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting.
	Your Twitter account?
	Only Rosie O'Donnell.
	No, it wasn't.
	He just won the election right there.
	Let me.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	So again, but guess what?
	Today, that can't happen.
	Which I don't like.
	By the way, and here's a part, though.
	Here's a part.
	Okay.
	I want you to think about, you know, they know they're professionals.
	They know most people are not going to watch the entire debate.
	They're not.
	Most people are going to watch the first 15, 30 minutes, like a video you make, the first, you know, 10 minutes, 15 minutes they'll watch, or even a shorter video, the first eight seconds they'll watch, and then they're gone, right?
	So if you really want to embarrass the guy, what question do you ask Trump?
	As the moderator is the first question.
	I want you to.
	Oh, I already got it.
	I want you to put a be the devil.
	I know it's going to be hard for you to do, but be the devil's advocate and think about the ugliest question to ask Trump as the first question to get under his skin.
	Your name is Jake Tapper or Dana.
	What question do you start off with?
	All right.
	You want to go first or go first?
	I'm thinking no.
	I think Adam's got this.
	Let's see what he's going to do.
	President Trump, we're so grateful that you were able to make it here today.
	We know that there was a good chance that you could be in jail right now.
	We all know that you've been convicted of 34 felonies in state of New York.
	So how does it feel to be here on stage in this wonderful auditorium with no crowd, able to debate for the presidency?
	By the way, what happened on January 6th?
	We'll come back to that later.
	Anyway, explain yourself.
	There just might go right there immediately.
	What do you think?
	I don't know about that.
	Vinny, what do you think?
	I mean, if the moderator wants to crap on him 100%.
	Not crap on him.
	Immediately, you want to get under his skin right off the bat as a question because you know it's going to be only the first 15 minutes, so you got to get him in the first 15 minutes.
	What do you ask?
	So President Trump, going back, some say that you were colluding with Russia.
	You're a Russian asset.
	Up to the January 6th insurrection, a book came out where it was known fact that you cheated on your wife.
	This is in the book.
	You cheated on your wife.
	Again, you did hush money with Stormy Daniels.
	Okay.
	I'd list all those things and I say, if you do win, what's to say that you're not going to do that again when you win the presidency?
	Because if you want to get under his skin, you bring up all the dirt about his personal life and then you just give it to him.
	I actually think he would overcome each of those one by one by one.
	And I think he would welcome that.
	I actually think he would welcome that question.
	I think you have to be more creative than that to hit him somewhere that's going to really piss him off.
	Do you have one in mind?
	No, I, I, uh, you're on to something.
	I'm actually, no, no, I'm nowhere.
	I'm just kind of like, we're being creative right here.
	This is how our meetings go by the way.
	Don't sell yourself short because I'll tell you why you are right.
	In news, in journalism, in broadcasting, there's something called don't bury the lead.
	So they're not going to bury the lead if they're asking Trump.
	Adam went to Columbia School, studied journalism.
	I was at Columbia.
	He's a joke.
	I was kidding with you.
	One guy about it.
	He believed Florida State.
	Go ahead.
	Florida State, okay?
	Football.
	Nibai football.
	No, they're not going to bear.
	If they're going to the first question, Trump, they're not going to bear the lead.
	They're going to ask a very poignant, direct question because they know that that is going to be the most watched part of the debate.
	So you are onto something.
	I just don't know what that question is going to be.
	Yeah, but I do think strategically, if you're thinking about your enemy, what your enemy is going to try to do, how many hours do you think they sat in the room, Tapper, Dana, with their crew saying, and all the liberal students that just got out of Columbia, that just got out of all these schools, that hates Trump at the highest level, right?
	Can't stand this guy.
	Come up with the top five question.
	I'll give you $1,000 bonus.
	Whoever comes up with the best question to ask as an opening question to get a piss them off right off the bat.
	What would that question be?
	If we use your question, it's $1,000 bonus.
	We give you whatever the number they give them, right?
	You come up with that question.
	And then in that room, they sit there and say, I actually really like that question.
	What's your name?
	Mary.
	How long have you been with us?
	I'm an intern.
	Who do you work with?
	Okay, write that question down.
	What do you have?
	I think you got to start off right off the bat, rattling him.
	And then from there, you know, you see where he takes it.
	But you got to find, and I'm sure they're dark enough and deceptive enough, have enough access to resources to know what question to pose.
	Question becomes, is it going to work or not?
	See, the one thing I see about how Trump is lately, you guys ever seen somebody when you get out of phase and when anything that happens, they're always pissed.
	Have you ever been in that phase before?
	I know I have been.
	Have you ever been in a phase where almost it takes this much to piss you off?
	Have you ever been there before?
	Oh, we got a bunch of saints here.
	Guys, can you please pray for me afterwards?
	I mean, I'd love to be a saint like you.
	Okay.
	So, but have you also ever been at a phase of your life where nothing can get under your skin, where you're just like, okay, high as a kite?
	That's where I'm at right now.
	Are you really?
	High as a kite.
	Oh, you said that?
	That's because you were smoking weed and smelling garlands.
	I can't get under the skin.
	And then a cop pulls you over and is like, do you know why I pulled you over?
	Yes, officer.
	Why did I pull you over?
	I was going 120.
	65.
	I was going fast.
	I deserve a ticket.
	Excuse me?
	You should give me a ticket.
	Go ahead.
	You need my license and registration.
	Is everything okay?
	I just had a daughter, bro.
	I don't give a shit.
	Give me a ticket.
	You know, I'm so happy right now.
	And the cop's like, oh, you know, those moments that we have, right?
	Trump is flowing right now.
	So that's the thing.
	So what I mean is, I don't think anything's going to work because he, to me, he has the mojo that he had in 2015, 2016.
	He did not have in 2020.
	In 2020, I think he lost the mojo.
	He was angry and it didn't work well.
	It didn't work well.
	I think right now he's dancing.
	He's having fun.
	He's enjoying this.
	So I actually don't think there's anything they can ask that's going to get under his skin.
	If I was an intern in there, I would say, I'm so sorry.
	I didn't go to Columbia.
	I went to Glendale Community College.
	And maybe my opinion has no credence here.
	I actually think you guys want to make sure the first 15 minutes is as boring as possible so people switch.
	Because if it's not boring and they watch the whole thing and Trump kills it, you guys are dummies and you will lose.
	So ask the stupidest questions the first 15 minutes so you lose the audience and they walk away.
	That's what I would do if I were you.
	And so that's the part because I think he's dancing right now.
	He's having way too much fun right now.
	I actually agree with you and I'll tell you why.
	Trump relishes.
	We got 10 minutes.
	We got 10 minutes till the debate.
	I'll tell you why.
	Trump relishes being the underdog.
	So in 2016, he was the underdog.
	I mean, nobody thought Trump was even going to be able to do it.
	Not one pan out of my head.
	I mean, he came up there in 2015 and 2016 when he was campaigning and in the Republican primaries and boom, low energy, Jeb, you're done.
	Okay.
	Little Marco, boom, you're done.
	Left and right.
	They're out of there.
	2020, he was the president.
	It's kind of hard to be the underdog when you're the incumbent president.
	And he also had COVID.
	So kind of, you know, something to deal with at that time.
	Right now, even though he's kind of favored in the polls right now, he could still play the underdog.
	They're trying to lock me up.
	They're trying to go after my freedom.
	They're trying to take your freedom away.
	I'm your fighter.
	I can do this.
	I'm representing you.
	So he can kind of play that card.
	And I think he does well being that guy other than being the incumbent president.
	So I think you're absolutely right on that.
	Vinny, Vinny, please be skeptical and disagree because this is getting boring.
	Okay?
	I like a good fight.
	Call it out.
	Say you guys are wrong.
	I disagree.
	Listen, come after him, by the way.
	Enjoy being the guy that disagrees once in a while.
	There you go, Vinny.
	Is Rumble down?
	Yes, according to the.
	I just saw Steven Crowder tweeted that he's leaving Rumble to go on YouTube.
	Not leaving Rumble.
	He went to YouTube because Rumble is down.
	Correct.
	Downdetector.com has them down.
	And if you take a look at the screen right here, as I refresh, it's not loading.
	Wow.
	So either they had so much traffic coming in or somebody wants to.
	Interskepticism.
	I'm saying what a combination of.
	How many of you guys disagree?
	Who disagrees with what I said?
	You're like, no, I don't think that's what it is.
	Okay?
	You think that what?
	That.
	You think so?
	Absolutely.
	Who's there?
	You're talking about Rumble.
	Oh, you think Soros is behind Rumble being down?
	You fully believe that.
	Can Rumble, you're not a fan of Jorge.
	don't think he's a sweet noble gentle man you think they're gonna take Biden off the field tonight Yeah.
	Or they're going to ride within 15 minutes.
	Okay, so let me ask you this.
	Go back to what I said, that they're actually maybe even the first 15 minutes.
	By the way, this is one of the ways to get under his skin.
	You ready?
	Thank you so much for being on the stage, President Biden.
	And Mr. Trump, thank you so much for being on the stage.
	Did you catch that too?
	Mr. Trump.
	Yes, sir.
	President Trump.
	That's right.
	That's the one way to do that.
	Disrespect sprinkled.
	President Biden, great to have you here.
	Mr. Trump, it's great to have you here.
	If they do that, that's actually such a dirty way of taking it that can actually backfire.
	It's actually, I don't know if it's a good idea.
	By the way, if they do it, it's a bad look on CNN.
	1,000%.
	Now, again, you can never be surprised.
	You always got to be kind of like ready on what the enemy could do.
	Can I flip it on you?
	You can flip it all your way.
	I think CNN, just how, you know, what I've learned from PBD after every single debate, you give scores for everybody, not just Trump, not just Biden.
	You give scores for the commentators.
	You give scores to the hosts.
	You give scores to the networks.
	You give score to the VPs.
	CNN has a unique chance tonight to turn the tide of people being like, yeah, they're just clearly leftist stooges in the Democratic Party's camp.
	Meaning, if they actually do a good job, if Jake Tapper and Dana Bash are actually legit down the middle and are even to both sides, that would help credibility a little bit.
	If they really wanted to do that, they would have allowed the press secretary, the spokesperson for Trump the other day, when she said Jake Tapper compared Trump to Hitler and they cut her off.
	That would have been a good story.
	Yeah, but that's not, that's, who was that?
	Casey Hunter, Allison Camerado, whoever was doing that.
	You're representing the brand.
	That's not world stage, PBD.
	Now we're going to disagree.
	Now we're going to disagree.
	That's the brand.
	That's the brand.
	You're representing the brand and you're saying that.
	But that's different from during the presidential debate versus a random story.
	So let me ask you a different question.
	Let me ask you a different question.
	America, what American voters want.
	Rob, was there one of the slides of what the topics was?
	I think one of the stories that we had on what the stories people wanted to talk about.
	Okay, so there was one thing about issue.
	Okay, so immigration.
	Speed reading.
	Immigration.
	Is that question?
	Will that be asked in the first 15 minutes?
	Probably not because it's going to hurt myself.
	It shouldn't be for CNN.
	For sure.
	When should you ask immigration question?
	At the end.
	In the last 30 minutes.
	Again, think about all these things.
	What will they ask in the first 15 minutes?
	Abortion.
	Okay.
	Abortion.
	Roe versus Wade.
	Okay, so now we're talking about strategy.
	Now we're flowing.
	Why don't the chances for the first 15 minutes going to be Roe versus Wade?
	Abortion.
	First 15 minutes.
	First 30 minutes.
	If they have an agenda, very high.
	Okay.
	So we're going to see this year collectively together.
	Okay.
	What are the topics you think?
	We got five minutes.
	What are the topics you think will be brought up in the first 15, 30 minutes?
	January 6th, Insurrection 1000.
	Okay, so let's go through it.
	Jay.
	100,000%.
	Abortion.
	What else?
	Convicted felon.
	Committed felon.
	Convicted felon.
	APAC?
	Payback.
	COVID.
	COVID handling.
	Payback.
	We found a guy with a more conspiratorial nature than you, buddy.
	Okay.
	So now let's do this.
	What do you think will be talked about the last 30 minutes?
	We said immigration lasts 30 minutes.
	Immigration, the economy.
	What was that?
	Climate.
	You think climate change has lasted 30 minutes or earlier?
	I think climate change could be in the first 30 minutes.
	First 30.
	You have called climate change a hoax.
	Mr. Trump.
	Pop, up, up, up.
	In the beginning, yeah.
	728 scientists have said.
	Yeah.
	Right?
	So, okay, so climate change.
	What else do you think will be in the last 30 minutes?
	Like, this is when people are going to sleep.
	They're done.
	What about LGBTQ?
	I think you got to bring that.
	Yeah, I think you got to bring anything that's a bad look on Trump.
	You got to bring you the first 30 minutes.
	That's what they're going to do.
	So that's what you have to watch out for because, you know, that's the strategic move.
	It's called strategery.
	Strategy.
	Strategy.
	But you made a great point, Pat, because I know we're wrapping up.
	You made a great point.
	He's loose.
	He's dancing because now he has ammunition.
	Now he's had.
	Now he's going to say, you guys have seen four years.
	You saw my four years.
	What do you want?
	You choose.
	You choose what you want.
	Any predictions.
	Any predictions you want to make.
	Joe Biden walks over and punches him and loses his mind and they kick him off.
	No, that's not a prediction.
	That's an ideal situation for a comedian.
	That's what you would want.
	Adam.
	Joe Biden just comes in.
	I think the least crazy candidate should win, will win.
	Like present yourself as the least crazy.
	I think Trump is going to have a lot of ammunition to call out Biden's record.
	Listen, you know, you might say I've mean tweets.
	How do you like those orange?
	You miss those orange tweets now kind of a thing.
	Look at what's going on in the world.
	He's a lot of ammunition.
	I think Biden has very little ammunition.
	I think he's going to go to the criminal thing.
	I think he's going to the January 6th thing.
	And I think he's going to use this one term that I've been researching.
	By the way, I told you I brought props.
	Here's another thing.
	A practical guide to defeating MAGA.
	Did you write it?
	No, I didn't write it.
	I co-authored it.
	You call on.
	This is actually online right now.
	And do you know the only term in terms of the Republican Party that has a lower approval rating to Democrats than Donald Trump?
	MAGA.
	Donald Trump's approval rating within Democrats is in the 20s or 30s, but MAGA is actually lower than that.
	So look out for this.
	How many times they say MAGA extremists, right-wing MAGA extremists?
	Just so you know that, guys.
	Trump has a higher approval rating than MAGA.
	Just keep that.
	Threat to democracy, you're going to hear at least 10 times.
	For sure.
	What other predictions you got?
	What other predictions you got?
	What else do you think that's going to be?
	Joe Biden is actually going to be there, finish the debate, be the nominee, and most likely lose to Donald Trump in the general election.
	But he will be the candidate.
	That is my prediction.
	I think Donald Trump mops the floor with him in this, even though they have the buttons and all that.
	You can't compare.
	Again, you cannot compare four years ago to right now.
	The people aren't stupid.
	And that middle that he's talking about, those middle people are going to see right through the BS.
	1,000%.
	What do you think, PBD?
	Predictions.
	I think you have to, the editors that are on Trump's team are creative editors, okay?
	Where they can make good clips and get it out there as soon as possible.
	And he's going to have moments.
	And Trump, Trump doesn't need somebody to write like, here's seven lines to use as comeback.
	Trump's a rapper.
	He's a New York rapper.
	He's a rapper.
	Trump could have been a rapper.
	Trump was, you know, a poor father away from being a rapper, okay?
	Yo, what?
	Yo, hey, yeah.
	He would have been the first MMM.
	You got to find the drink.
	Hotline bling Trump video.
	So I don't think Trump's lacking.
	To me, when you're so confident in your ability to be witty and debate, like you're feeding this moment.
	I feel like he's been waiting.
	Like, you know how it's like you're eight years old and it's Christmas and you can't say, I don't want to become a gift act.
	I want to wait for this.
	I feel like he's like, dude, let's go.
	I want to do this already.
	I feel like he's there right now.
	I'm telling you, when you're in flow, he's in flow.
	It's very interesting because when it was against Biden, he wasn't in flow.
	I'm going to give you one quick step.
	Unfair.
	This is unfair.
	This is unfair.
	This is like, no, no, now you got what you wanted.
	You saw four of mine.
	You got four of his.
	How you like me now?
	How you truly do what it is.
	Again, he's a rapper.
	So, Rob, if we're ready, and by the way, with your permission, CNN, we're going to watch you, but you can do whatever you're doing.
	We're going to watch it with our crowd here and we'll be reacting to the debate.
	Rob, if it's up, you want to put it up and the audience out there while you're watching this, I think it's 90 minutes.
	There will be two five minute breaks, and then at the end, we'll come back and we'll react to it the last 30 minutes to an hour, and then we'll bid you a good evening.
	Now, we're hoping there's some fireworks tonight when this thing gets started, but we'll see.
	By the way, wasn't there an event where Biden was late 15, 20 minutes?
	The State of the Union.
	He was late.
	He was late 45 minutes because of traffic.
	The protesters, and he was dapping up everybody in between.
	Can I give you one little piece of data?
	Yeah, real quick.
	By the way, Tom, if you're watching, shout out to the business.
	Kelly, we'll keep going until this thing, they're on the stage.
	We'll go.
	So, Adam, keep going.
	By the way, Tom is somewhere in the world.
	Yeah.
	He's somewhere in the world.
	Tommy, can everybody say, Tommy, we love you.
	We love you, Thomas.
	And by the way, Tommy, we truly love you, and he knows it.
	Go ahead, Adam.
	Well, Tom, this one's for you, Tom, because everybody knows that Princess, yes, words talk.
	On behalf of Tom for sure.
	I know it upsets you a lot.
	It rolls off my back.
	No, it upsets me.
	I'm not going to be skin at this point.
	Pat, shout out to Tom, wherever he is in the world right now with his family.
	But he always says, Words talk, numbers scream, right, Brandon?
	I got it right this time.
	You talk about Trump flowing doing his thing.
	Here's some numbers for you.
	Stats for Tom out there.
	Joe Biden, this is going to mark his 30th national debate.
	30th.
	I'm talking.
	He ran for president in the 80s, 90s, 2000s.
	This is his 30th.
	It's more than anybody.
	But by the way, Donald Trump, this is his 15th presidential debate.
	So they both have more than anybody in particular categories right now.
	So these are guys are not lightweights, inexperienced.
	There's 50 years of government and 50 years of business.
	Let's see what we got.
	Here we go.
	An additional minute for follow-up, clarification, or response is at the moderator's discussion.
	When it's time for a candidate to speak, his microphone will be turned on and his opponent's microphone will be turned off.
	Did a candidate interrupt when his microphone is muted?
	He will be difficult to understand for viewers at home.
	At the end of the debate, each candidate will get two minutes for closing statements.
	There is no studio audience tonight.
	Pre-written notes, prompts, or contacts with campaign staff are not permitted during the debate.
	By accepting our invitation to debate, both candidates and their campaigns agreed to accept these pools.
	Now, please welcome the 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden.
	His hands.
	Boo.
	Joe.
	Hey, hey, hey.
	Oh, my God.
	They didn't give him that much drugs.
	Very pale.
	Uh-oh.
	Look at him.
	Look at him.
	Yeah.
	Look at that tie.
	Boss.
	Yeah, don't even look at him.
	Don't even look at him.
	Let's start with the issue that voters consistently say is their top concern.
	There it is.
	Inflation has slowed, but prices remain high.
	Since you took office, the price of essentials has increased.
	For example, a basket of groceries that cost $100 then now costs more than to start with this.
	And typical home prices have jumped more than 30%.
	What do you say to voters who feel they are worse off under your presidency than the city?
	Mr. Trump, are you kidding?
	Oh, God.
	Oh, my God.
	Does not look good.
	His voice.
	That's exactly what we were going to do.
	Dude, did he cough within the first seven seconds?
	He's not drugged.
	Look at his chin.
	Can we turn this volume up a little bit?
	Look at his hands.
	Wow.
	They didn't.
	They didn't drug him.
	Can you guys understand what he's saying?
	It's over.
	Look, he's coming.
	Oh, my God.
	Oh, my God.
	Oh, no, they didn't give him drugs.
	Done.
	done Other countries were counting us.
	We got hit with COVID.
	And when we did, we spent the money necessary so we wouldn't end up in the Great Depression, the likes of which we had in 1929.
	Our dictionary.
	A lot of credit for the military, and no wars, and so many other things.
	Everything was okay and good.
	But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess.
	He created mandates.
	That was a disaster for our country.
	But other than that, we had given them back a country where the stock market actually was higher than we call it.
	And nobody thought that was even possible.
	The only jobs he created were for illegal immigrants and balance that.
	He was not very good job and doesn't say that they can still live in our country.
	It is absolutely killing us.
	Thank you, President Biden.
	Well, if the greatest is found in the world, it wouldn't be doing like this one.
	I don't want anybody else to do something.
	I don't want anybody else to do something.
	That's insane.
	His country's economy rewarded the wealthy.
	He had the largest tax cut in American history, $2 million.
	Larger than any president has in any one term.
	He's the only president other than Herbert Hoover who's lost more jobs than he had when he began.
	It's Herbert Hoover.
	Talk about Herbert Hoover.
	And the military.
	You know, when he was president, they were still killing people in Afghanistan.
	He didn't do anything about that.
	When he was president, we were still finding ourselves in a position where you had a notion that we were this safe country.
	The truth is, I'm the only president this century that doesn't have any, this decade, that any troops dying anywhere in the world like he did.
	President Trump, I want to follow up if I can.
	You want to allow you to respond to him?
	Well, I'm going to ask you to follow up.
	You can do whatever you want with the minute that we give you.
	I want to follow up.
	You want to impose a 10% tariff on all goods coming into the U.S. How will you ensure that that doesn't drive prices even higher?
	It's not going to drive them higher.
	It's just going to cost countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China.
	It's going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things.
	But he made a statement.
	The only thing he was right about is I gave you the largest tax cut in history.
	I also gave you the largest regulation cut in history.
	That's why we had all the jobs.
	And the jobs went down and then they bounced back.
	And he's taking credit for bounce back jobs.
	You can't do that.
	He also said he inherited 9% inflation.
	No, he inherited almost no inflation, and it stayed that way for 14 months.
	And then it blew up under his leadership because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn't know what they were doing.
	And they don't know what they were doing.
	It was almost the worst administration in history.
	There's never been.
	And as far as Afghanistan is concerned, I was getting out of Afghanistan, but we were getting out with dignity, with strength, with power.
	He got out.
	It was the most embarrassing day in the history of our country's life.
	President Trump, over the last eight years, under both of your administrations, the national debt soared to record highs.
	And according to a new nonpartisan analysis, President Trump, your administration approved $8.4 trillion in new debt.
	Well, so far, President Biden, you've approved $4.3 trillion in new debt.
	So, former President Trump, many of the tax cuts that you signed into law are set to expire next year.
	You want to extend them and go even further, you say.
	With the U.S. facing trillion-dollar deficits and record debt, why should top earners and corporations pay even less in taxes than they do now?
	Because the tax cut spurred the greatest economy that we've ever seen just prior to COVID.
	And even after COVID, it was so strong that we were able to get through COVID much better than just about any other country.
	But we spurred that tax spur.
	Now, when we cut the taxes, as an example, the corporate tax was cut down to 21 percent from 39 percent plus beyond that.
	We took in more revenue with much less tax, and companies were bringing back trillions of dollars back into our country.
	The country was going like never before, and we were ready to start paying down debt.
	We were ready to start using the liquid gold right under our feet, the oil and gas right under our feet.
	We were going to have something that nobody else has had.
	We got hit with COVID.
	We did a lot to fix it.
	I gave him an unbelievable situation with all of the therapeutics and all of the things that we came up with.
	We gave him something great.
	Remember, more people died under his administration, even though we had largely fixed it.
	More people died under his administration than our administration, and we were right in the middle of it, something which a lot of people don't like to talk about.
	But he had far more people dying in his administration.
	He did the mandate, which is a disaster, mandating it.
	The vaccine went out.
	He did a mandate on the vaccine, which is the thing that people most objected to about the vaccine.
	And he did a very poor job, just a very poor job.
	And I will tell you, not only poor there, but throughout the entire world, we're no longer respected as a country.
	They don't respect our leadership.
	They don't respect the United States anymore.
	We're like a third world nation between weaponization of his election, trying to go after his political opponent, all of the things he's done.
	We've become like a third world nation, and it's a shame.
	The damage he's done to our country, and I'd love to ask him and will why he allowed millions of people to come in here from prisons, jails, and mental institutions to come into our country and destroy our country.
	President Trump, we will get to immigration later in this block.
	President Biden, I want to give you an opportunity to respond to this question about the national debt.
	He had the largest national debt of any president in a four-year period, number one.
	Number two, that $2 trillion tax cut benefited the very wealthy.
	What I'm going to do is fix the tax system.
	For example, we have 1,000 trillionaires in America, I mean billionaires in America.
	And what's happening?
	They're in a situation where they, in fact, pay 8.2 percent in taxes.
	If they just paid 24 percent, 25 percent, either one of those numbers, they'd raise 500 million dollars, billion dollars, I should say, in a 10-year period.
	We'd be able to wipe out his debt.
	We'd be able to help make sure that all those things we need to do, child care, elder care, making sure that we continue to strengthen our health care system, making sure that we're able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the COVID, excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with.
	This is really bad.
	Wait, what's he doing?
	If we finally beat Medicare.
	Thank you, President Biden.
	President of the United States.
	What the hell was that?
	He's right.
	He did beat Medicare to death, and he's destroying Medicare because all of these people are coming in.
	They're putting on Medicare.
	They're putting them on Social Security.
	They're going to destroy Social Security.
	This man is going to single-handedly destroy Social Security.
	These millions and millions of people coming in, they're trying to put them on Social Security.
	He will wipe out Social Security.
	He will wipe out Medicare.
	So he was right in the way he finished that sentence.
	And it's a shame.
	What's happened to our country in the last four years is not to be believed.
	Foreign countries, I'm friends with a lot of people.
	They cannot believe what happened to the United States of America.
	We're no longer respected.
	They don't like us.
	We give them everything they want, and they think we're stupid.
	They think we're very stupid people.
	What we're doing for other countries, and they do nothing for us.
	What this man has done is absolutely criminal.
	Thank you, President Trump.
	Dana?
	This is the first presidential election since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
	This morning, the court ruled on yet another abortion case, temporarily allowing emergency abortions to continue in Idaho, despite that state's restrictive ban.
	Former President Trump, you take credit for the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which returned the issue of abortion to the states.
	Correct.
	However, the federal government still plays a role in whether or not women have access to abortion pills.
	They're used in about two-thirds of all abortions.
	As president, would you block abortion medication?
	First of all, the Supreme Court just approved the abortion bill, and I agree with their decision to have done that, and I will not block it.
	And if you look at this whole question that you're asking, complex but not really complex.
	51 years ago, you had Roe v. Wade, and everybody wanted to get it back to the states.
	Everybody, without exception, Democrats, Republicans, liberals, conservatives, everybody wanted it back, religious leaders.
	And what I did is I put three great Supreme Court justices on the court, and they happened to vote in favor of killing Roe v. Wade and moving it back to the states.
	This is something that everybody wanted.
	Now, 10 years ago or so, they started talking about how many weeks and how many this, getting into other things.
	But every legal scholar throughout the world, the most respected, wanted it brought back to the states.
	I did that.
	Now the states are working it out.
	If you look at Ohio, it was a decision that was an end result that was a little bit more liberal than you would have thought.
	Kansas, I would say the same thing.
	Texas is different.
	Florida is different.
	But they're all making their own decisions right now.
	And right now, the states control it.
	That's the vote of the people.
	Like Ronald Reagan, I believe in the exceptions.
	I am a person that believes.
	And frankly, I think it's important to believe in the exceptions.
	Some people, you have to follow your heart.
	Some people don't believe in that.
	But I believe in the exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother.
	I think it's very important.
	Some people don't.
	Follow your heart, but you have to get elected also, because that has to do with other things.
	You've got to get elected.
	The problem they have is they're radical because they will take the life of a child in the eighth month, the ninth month, and even after birth.
	After birth, if you look at the former governor of Virginia, he was willing to do this.
	He said, we'll put the baby aside and we'll determine what we do with the baby, meaning we'll kill the baby.
	Yup.
	What happened is we brought it back to the states and the country is now coming together on this issue.
	It's been a great thing.
	Thank you, President Biden.
	It's been a terrible thing, what you've done.
	The fact is that the vast majority of Constitutional scholars supported Roe when it was decided, supported Roe.
	And this idea that they were all against it is just ridiculous.
	And this is the guy who says the states should be able to have it.
	We're in a state where in six weeks, you don't even know whether you're pregnant or not, but you cannot see a doctor and have him decide on what your circumstances are when you need help.
	The idea that states are able to do this is a little like saying we're going to turn civil rights back to the states.
	Each state have a different rule.
	Look, there's so many young women who have been, including a young woman who just was murdered, and he went to the funeral.
	The idea that she was murdered By an immigrant coming in, they talk about that.
	But here's the deal.
	There's a lot of young women to be raped by their in-laws, by their spouses, brothers and sisters.
	It's just ridiculous.
	And they can do nothing about it.
	Rapes and women.
	And they try to arrest them when they cross-state lines.
	Thank you.
	There have been many young women murdered by the same people he allows to come across our border.
	We have a border that's the most dangerous place anywhere in the world, considered the most dangerous place anywhere in the world.
	And he opened it up and these killers are coming into our country and they are raping and killing women.
	And it's a terrible thing.
	As far as the abortion is concerned, it is now back with the states.
	The states are voting.
	In many cases, it's frankly a very liberal decision.
	In many cases, it's the opposite.
	But they're voting, and it's bringing it back to the vote of the people, which is what everybody wanted, including the founders, if they knew about this issue, which, frankly, they didn't.
	But they would have everybody wanted brought back.
	Ronald Reagan wanted it brought back.
	He wasn't able to get it.
	Everybody wanted it brought back.
	And many presidents had tried to get it back.
	I was the one to do it.
	And again, this gives it the vote of the people, and that's where they wanted it.
	Every legal scholar wanted it that way.
	Staying on the topic of abortion, President Biden, seven states, I'll let you do that.
	This is the same topic.
	Seven states have no legal restrictions on how far into a pregnancy a woman can obtain an abortion.
	Do you support any legal limits on how late a woman has to late pregnancy?
	I supported Roe v. Wade, which had three trimesters.
	The first time is between the woman and the doctor.
	Second time is between the doctor and an extreme situation.
	The third time is between the doctor, I mean between the woman and the state.
	The idea that the politicians, that the founders want the politicians to be the ones making decisions about women's health is ridiculous.
	That's the last, no politician should be making that decision.
	A doctor should be making those decisions.
	That's how it should be run.
	That's what you're going to do.
	And if I'm elected, I'm going to restore Roe v. Wade.
	So that means he can take the life of the baby in the ninth month and even after birth, because some states, Democrat-run, take it after birth.
	Again, the governor, former governor of Virginia, put the baby down, then we decide what to do with it.
	So he's willing to, as we say, rip the baby out of the womb in the ninth month and kill the baby.
	Nobody wants that to happen, Democrat or Republican.
	Nobody wants it to happen.
	That is simply not true that Roe v. Wade does not provide for that.
	That's not the circumstance.
	Only if a woman's life is in danger, she's going to die.
	That's the only circumstance in which that can happen.
	But we are not for late-term abortion, period.
	Period, period.
	Under Roe v. Wade, you have late-term abortion.
	You can do whatever you want, depending on the state.
	You can do whatever you want.
	We don't think that's a good thing.
	We think it's a radical thing.
	We think the Democrats are the radicals, not the Republicans.
	For 51 years, that was the law.
	51 years, Constitutional Scholarship said it was the right way to go.
	51 years, and it was taken away because this guy put very conservative members on the Supreme Court.
	He takes credit for taking it away.
	What's he going to do?
	What's he going to do?
	In fact, if the MAGA Republicans, he gets elected and the MAGA Republicans control the Congress and they pass a universal ban on abortion period across the board at six weeks or seven or eight or ten weeks.
	Something very, very conservative.
	Is he going to sign that bill?
	I'll veto it.
	He'll sign it.
	Thank you.
	Let's turn now to the issue of immigration and border security.
	President Biden, a record number of migrants have illegally crossed the southern border on your watch, overwhelming border states and overburdening cities such as New York and Chicago, and in some cases causing real safety and security concerns.
	Given that, why should voters trust you to solve this crisis?
	Because we worked very hard to get a bipartisan agreement that not only changed all of that, made sure that we were in a situation where you had no circumstance where they could come across the border with the number of border police there are now.
	We significantly increased the number of asylum officers, significantly.
	By the way, the Border Patrol endorsed me, endorsed my position.
	In addition to that, we found ourselves in a situation where when he was president, he was taking, separating babies from their mothers, putting them in cages, making sure the families were separated.
	That's not the right way to go.
	What I've done since I've changed the law, what's happened, I've changed it in a way that now you're in a situation where there are 40% fewer people coming across the border illegally.
	That's better than when he left office.
	And I'm going to continue to move until we get the total ban on the total initiative relative to what we can do with more border patrols.
	There's so many phone calls happening right now.
	Asylum officers.
	President Trump.
	I really don't know what he said at the end of this.
	I think he knows what he said either.
	We have the safest border in the history of our country.
	All we had to do was leave it.
	Well, we have a good day to leave it.
	He decided to open up our border, open up our country.
	What was he saying?
	What was he saying?
	People that are from prisons, people that are from mental institutions, insane asylum, terrorists.
	That was the most largest number of people coming into our country.
	Let's see what he says.
	All over the world, not just in South America, all over the world.
	They come from the Middle East, everywhere.
	All over the world, they're pouring in.
	And this guy just left it open.
	And he didn't need legislation because I didn't have legislation.
	I said, close the border.
	We had the safest border in history.
	In that final couple of months of my presidency, we had, according to Border Patrol, who is great, and by the way, who endorsed me for president, but I won't say that.
	Look at the leave.
	Who was me for president?
	Brandon, just speak to him.
	But look, we had the same.
	Brandon, just destroy it!
	Now we have the worst border.
	You called them Brandon.
	There's never been anything like it.
	And people are dying.
	I call them Brandon.
	Including the people that are coming up.
	President Trump.
	President Biden?
	The only terrorist who's done anything crossing the border is one who came along and killed three under his administration, killed an al-Qaeda person, come in and his administration, kill three American soldiers.
	This is the same.
	This is the worst debate in the United States.
	That's the former terrorists.
	This is uncertain.
	They're giving up on it.
	This is the shit idea.
	They're emptying their prisons.
	They're giving up on them.
	They didn't drug them up.
	It's simply not true.
	There's no data to support what he said.
	Once again, he's exaggerating.
	He's lying.
	President Trump, staying on the topic of immigration, you've said that you're going to carry out, quote, the largest domestic deportation operation in American history, unquote.
	Does that mean that you will deport every undocumented immigrant in America, including those who have jobs, including those whose spouses are citizens, and including those who have lived here for decades?
	And if so, how will you do it?
	Just one second.
	He said we killed three people.
	The people we killed are Al-Baghdadi and Salome, the two greatest terrorists anywhere in the world.
	And it had a huge impact on everything, not just border, on everything.
	He's the one to kill people with the bad water, including hundreds of thousands of people dying, and also killing our citizens when they come in.
	We are living right now in a rat's nest.
	They're killing our people in New York, in California, in every state in the Union, because we don't have borders anymore.
	Every state is now a border.
	And because of his ridiculous, insane, and very stupid policies, people are coming in and they're killing our citizens at a level that we've never seen.
	We call it migrant crime.
	I call it Biden migrant crime.
	They're killing our citizens at a level that we've never seen before.
	And you're reading it like these three incredible young girls over the last few days.
	One of them, I just spoke to the mother, and they just had the funeral for this girl, 12 years old.
	This is horrible what's taken place.
	What's taken place in our country?
	We're literally an uncivilized country now.
	He doesn't want it to be.
	He just doesn't know.
	He opened the borders.
	Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
	And we have to get a lot of these people out, and we have to get them out fast because they're going to destroy our country.
	Just take a look at where they're living.
	They're living in luxury hotels in New York City and other places.
	Our veterans are on the street.
	They're dying because he doesn't care about our veterans.
	He doesn't care.
	He doesn't like the military at all.
	And he doesn't care about our veterans.
	Nobody's been worse.
	I had the highest approval rating for veterans taking care of the VA.
	He has the worst.
	He's gotten rid of all the things that I approved, choice that I got through Congress, all of the different things I approved, they abandoned.
	We had by far the highest, and now it's down in less than half because he's done all these great things that we did, and I think he did it just because I approved it, which is crazy.
	But he has killed so many people at our border by allowing all of these people to come in.
	And it's a very sad day in America.
	President Biden, you have the mic.
	Every single thing he said is a lie.
	Every single one.
	For example, veterans are a hell of a lot better off since I passed the PACT Act.
	One million of them now have insurance, and their families have it.
	Their families have it because what happened, whether it was Agent Orange or burn pits, they're all being covered now.
	And his group opposed that.
	We're also in a situation where we have great respect for veterans.
	My son spent a year in Iraq living next to one of those burn pits, came back with Stage War glioblastoma.
	I was recently in France for a D-Day, and I spoke to all about those heroes that died.
	I went to the World War II cemetery, World War I cemetery he refused to go to.
	He was standing with his four-star general, and he told me, he said, I don't want to go in there because they're a bunch of losers and suckers.
	My son was not a loser, was not a sucker.
	You're the sucker.
	You're the loser.
	President Trump?
	Wow.
	First of all, that was a made-up quote, suckers and losers.
	They made it up.
	It was in a third-rate magazine that's failing, like many of these magazines.
	He made that up.
	He put it in commercials.
	We've notified him.
	We had 19 people that said I didn't say it.
	And think of this.
	Who would say I'm at a cemetery or I'm talking about our veterans?
	Because nobody's taken better care.
	I'm so glad this came up and he brought it up.
	There's nobody that's taken better care of our soldiers.
	Look at Biden's face.
	To think that I would, in front of generals and others, say suckers and losers.
	We have 19 people that said it was never said by me.
	It was made up by him, just like Russia, Russia, Russia was made up, just like the 51 intelligence agents are made up, just like the new thing with the 16 economists are talking.
	It's the same thing.
	51 intelligence agents said that the laptop was Russia disinformation.
	It wasn't.
	That came from his son, Hunter.
	It wasn't Russia disinformation.
	He made up the suckers and losers, so he should apologize to me right now.
	Four-star general standard side was on your staff who said you said it, period.
	That's number one.
	And number two, the idea, the idea that I have to apologize to you for anything along the line.
	We've done more for veterans than any president has in American history.
	American history is not a problem.
	I don't even look at them.
	They're now in their family.
	The only sacred obligation we have as a country is to care for our veterans when they come home and their families and equip them when they go to war.
	That's what we're doing.
	That's what the VA is doing now.
	They're doing more for veterans than everyone.
	Otherwise, no, they're not.
	All right.
	Thank you so much.
	Let's move to the topic of foreign policy.
	I want to begin with Russia's war against Ukraine, which is now in its third year.
	Former President Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, says he'll only end this war if Russia keeps the Ukrainian territory it has already claimed and Ukraine abandons its bid to join NATO.
	Are Putin's terms acceptable to you?
	First of all, our veterans and our soldiers can't stand this guy.
	They can't stand him.
	They think he's the worst commander-in-chief, if that's what you call him, that we've ever had.
	They can't stand him.
	So let's get that straight.
	And they like me more than just about any of them.
	And that's based on every single bit of information.
	As far as Russia and Ukraine, if we had a real president, the president that knew, that was respected by Putin, he would have never, he would have never invaded Ukraine.
	A lot of people are dead right now, much more than people know.
	You know, they talk about numbers.
	You can double those numbers, maybe triple those numbers.
	He did nothing to stop it.
	In fact, I think he encouraged Russia from going in.
	I'll tell you what happened.
	He was so bad with Afghanistan.
	It was such a horrible embarrassment, most embarrassing moment in the history of our country, that when Putin watched that and he saw the incompetence that he should, he should have fired those generals like I fired the one that you mentioned.
	So he's got no love lost, but he should have fired those generals.
	No general got fired for the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country, Afghanistan, where we left billions of dollars of equipment behind.
	We lost 13 beautiful soldiers and 38 soldiers were obliterated.
	And by the way, we left people behind too.
	We left American citizens behind.
	When Putin saw that, he said, you know what, I think we're going to go in and maybe take my, this was his dream.
	I talked to him about it, his dream.
	The difference is he never would have invaded Ukraine.
	Never.
	Just like Israel would have never been invaded in a million years by Hamas.
	You know why?
	Because Iran was broke with me.
	I wouldn't let anybody do business with them.
	They ran out of money.
	They were broke.
	They had no money for Hamas.
	They had no money for anything.
	No money for terror.
	That's why you had no terror at all during my administration.
	This place, the whole world is blowing up under him.
	President Biden?
	I've never heard so much malarkey in my whole life.
	Look, the fact of the matter is that we're in a situation where, let's take the last point first.
	Iran attacked American troops, caused brain damage for a number of these troops, and he did nothing about it.
	Not when he was president.
	They attacked.
	He said they're just having headaches.
	That's all it is.
	He didn't do a thing when the attack took place, number one.
	Number two, we got over 100,000 Americans and others out of Afghanistan during that period.
	Number three, we found ourselves in a situation where if you take a look at what Trump did in Ukraine, this guy told Trump, do whatever you want and do whatever you want.
	And that's exactly what Trump did to Putin, encourage him.
	Do whatever you want.
	And he went in.
	Listen to what he said when he went in.
	He was going to take Kyiv in five days, remember?
	Because it's part of the old Soviet Union.
	That's what he wanted to reestablish.
	He didn't evade.
	Kyiv.
	And he, in fact, didn't do it at all.
	He wasn't able to get it done.
	And they've lost thousands of purposes.
	500,000 troops.
	President Trump is a good idea.
	I never said that.
	For one minute, I just want to go back to my original question, which is, are Putin's terms acceptable to you?
	Keeping the territory in Ukraine?
	No, they're not acceptable.
	But look, this is a war that never should have started.
	If we had a leader in this war, he led everybody along.
	He's given $200 billion now or more to Ukraine.
	He's given $200 billion.
	That's a lot of money.
	I don't think there's ever been anything like it.
	Every time that Zelensky comes to this country, he walks away with $60 billion.
	He's the greatest salesman ever.
	And I'm not knocking him.
	I'm not knocking anything.
	I'm only saying the money that we're spending on this war, and we shouldn't be spending, it should have never happened.
	I will have that war settled between Putin and Zelensky as president-elect before I take office on January 20th.
	I'll have that war settled.
	Single.
	People being killed so needlessly, so stupidly, and I will get it settled and I'll get it settled fast before I take office.
	Mr. Biden, you have a minute.
	The fact is that Putin is a war criminal.
	He's killed thousands of thousands of people.
	And he has made one thing clear.
	He wants to reestablish what was part of the Soviet Empire, not just a peace that wants all of Ukraine.
	That's what he wants.
	And then you think he'll stop there?
	Do you think he'll stop if he takes Ukraine?
	What do you think happens to Poland?
	What do you think of Belarus?
	What do you think happens to those NATO countries?
	The hell is he saying?
	And so if you want a war, you ought to find out what he's going to do because if in fact he does what he says and walks away, and by the way, all that money we give Ukraine from weapons we make here in the United States, we give them the weapons, not the money at this point.
	And our NATO allies have produced as much funding for Ukraine as we have.
	That's why we're strong.
	Thank you.
	Moving on to the Middle East.
	In October, Hamas attacked Israel, killing more than 1,000 people and taking hundreds of hostages.
	Among those held and thought to still be alive are five Americans.
	Israel's response has killed thousands of Palestinians and created a humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
	President Biden, you've put forward a proposal to resolve this conflict, but so far, Hamas has not released the remaining hostages, and Israel is continuing its military offensive in Gaza.
	So what additional leverage will you use to get Hamas and Israel to end the war?
	You have two minutes.
	Number one, everyone from the United Nations Security Council straight through to the G7 to the Israelis and Netanyahu himself have endorsed the plan I put forward, endorsed the plan I put forward, which has three stages to it.
	The first stage is trade the hostages for a ceasefire.
	Second phase is a ceasefire with additional conditions.
	The third phase is the end of the war.
	The only one who wants the war to continue is Hamas, number one.
	They're the only ones standing out.
	We're still pushing hard to get them to accept.
	In the meantime, what's happened?
	In Israel, we're finding the only thing I've denied Israel was 2,000-pound bombs.
	They don't work very well in populated areas.
	They kill a lot of innocent people.
	We're providing Israel with all the weapons they need and when they need them.
	And by the way, I'm the guy that organized the world against Iran when they had a full-blown intercontinental ballistic missile attack on Israel.
	No one was hurt.
	One Israeli was accidentally killed, and it stopped.
	We saved Israel.
	We are the biggest producer of support for Israel of anyone in the world.
	And so that's certainly two different things.
	Hamas cannot be allowed to be continued.
	We continue to send our experts and our intelligence people to how they can get Hamas like we did bin Laden.
	You don't have to do it.
	And by the way, they've been greatly weakened, Hamas.
	Greatly weakened, and they should be.
	They should be eliminated.
	But you've got to be careful for what using certain weapons among population centers.
	Just going back to Ukraine for one second.
	We have an ocean separating us.
	The European nations together have spent $100 billion or maybe more than that, less than us.
	Why doesn't he call them and say, you've got to put up your money like I did with NATO?
	I got them to put up hundreds of billions of dollars.
	The Secretary General of NATO said Trump did the most incredible job I've ever seen.
	They wouldn't have any, they were going out of business.
	We were spending almost 100% of the money was paid by us.
	He didn't do that.
	He's getting all, you've got to ask these people to put up the money.
	We're over $100 billion more spent, and it has a bigger impact on them because of location, because we have an ocean in between.
	You got to ask them.
	As far as Israel and Hamas, Israel's the one that wants to go.
	He said the only one that wants to keep going is Hamas.
	Actually, Israel is the one, and you should let him go and let him finish the job.
	He doesn't want to do it.
	He's become like a Palestinian, but they don't like him because he's a very bad Palestinian.
	He's a weak one.
	Hold his mouth.
	You have a minute?
	I've never heard so much foolishness.
	This is a guy who wants to get out of NATO.
	You're unbelievable.
	He's going to pull out of NATO.
	The idea that we have, our strength lies in our alliances as well.
	It may be a big ocean, but ever able to avoid a war in Europe, a major war in Europe?
	What happens if, in fact, you have Putin continue to go into NATO?
	We have an Article 5 agreement.
	Attack on one is attack on all.
	You want to start the nuclear war he keeps talking about?
	Go ahead.
	Let Putin go in and control Ukraine and then move on to Poland and other places.
	See what happens then.
	He has no idea what the hell he's talking about.
	And by the way, I got 50 other nations around the world to support Ukraine, including Japan and South Korea, because they understand that this kind of dislocation has a serious threat to the whole world peace.
	No major war in Europe has ever been able to be contained just to Europe.
	President Trump, just to follow up, would you support the creation of an independent Palestinian state in order to achieve peace in the region?
	I'd have to see, but before we do that, the problem we have is that we spend all the money.
	So they kill us on trade.
	I made great trade deals with the European nations because if you add them up, they're about the same size economically.
	Their economy is about the same size as the United States.
	And they were no cars, no, they don't want anything that we have, but we're supposed to take their cars, their food, their everything, their agriculture.
	I changed that.
	But the big thing I changed is they don't want to pay.
	And the only reason that he can play games with NATO is because I got them to put up hundreds of billions of dollars.
	I said, and he's right about this.
	I said, no, I'm not going to support NATO if you don't pay.
	They asked me that question.
	Would you guard us against Russia at a very secret meeting of the 28 states at that time, nations at that time?
	And I said, no, if you don't pay, I won't do that.
	And you know what happened?
	Billions and billions of dollars came flowing in the next day and the next months.
	But now we're in the same position.
	We're paying everybody's bills.
	Let's turn to the issue of democracy.
	Former President Trump, I want to ask you about January 6th, 2021, after you rallied your supporters that day.
	Let's go.
	Some of them stormed the Capitol to stop the constitutionally mandated counting of electoral votes.
	As President, you swore an oath to, quote, preserve, protect, and defend, unquote, the Constitution.
	What do you say to voters who believe that you violated that oath through your actions and inaction on January 6th and worry that you'll do it again?
	Well, I don't think too many believe that.
	And let me tell you about January 6th.
	On January 6th, we had a great border.
	Nobody coming through, very few.
	On January 6th, we were energy independent.
	On January 6th, we had the lowest taxes ever.
	We had the lowest regulations ever.
	On January 6th, we were respected.
	We were all over the world.
	All over the world, we were respected.
	And then he comes in, and we're now laughed at.
	We're like a bunch of stupid people.
	What happened to the United States' reputation under this man's leadership is horrible, including weaponization, which I'm sure at some point you'll be talking about, where he goes after his political opponent because he can't beat him fair and square.
	Yes.
	You have 80 seconds left.
	My question was, what do you say to those voters who believe that you violated your constitutional oath through your actions and inaction on January 6, 2021, and worry that you'll do it again?
	Well, I didn't say that to anybody.
	I said peacefully and patriotically.
	And Nancy Pelosi, if you just watched the news from two days ago, on tape to her daughter, who's a documentary filmmaker, as they say, but she's saying, oh, no, it's my responsibility.
	I was responsible for this.
	Because I offered her 10,000 soldiers or National Guard.
	Yep.
	And she turned them down.
	And the mayor of, in writing, by the way, the mayor in writing turned it down, the mayor of D.C., they turned it down.
	I offered 10,000 because I could see, I had virtually nothing to do.
	They asked me to go make a speech.
	I could see what was happening.
	Everybody was saying they're going to be there on January 6th.
	They're going to be there.
	And I said, you know what?
	There's a lot of people coming.
	You could feel it.
	You could feel it too, and you could feel it.
	And I said, they ought to have some National Guard or whatever.
	And I offered it to her, and she now admits that she turned it down.
	And it was the same day she was, I don't know, she can't be very happy with her daughter because it made her into a liar.
	She said, I take full responsibility for January 6th.
	President Biden?
	Well, here you go.
	He encouraged those folks to go up on Capitol Hill.
	Number one.
	I sat in the dining room off the Oval Office.
	He sat there for three hours, three hours watching, begging, being begged by his vice president and a number of his colleagues on the Republican side as well to do something, call for a stop, to end it.
	Instead, they've talked about these people being patriots and great patrons of America.
	In fact, he says he'll now forgive them for what they've done.
	They've been convicted.
	He says he wants to commute their sentences and say that no.
	He went to every single court in the nation.
	I don't know how many cases, scores of cases, including the Supreme Court.
	And they said, they said, no, no, this guy is responsible for doing what was done.
	He did do a damn thing.
	And these people should be in jail.
	And they should be the ones who are being held accountable.
	And he wants to let them all out.
	And now he says if he loses again, such a whiner that he is, that there could be a bloodbat.
	Thank you, President Biden.
	President Trump?
	What they've done to some people that are so innocent, you ought to be ashamed of yourself.
	What you have done, how you've destroyed the lives of so many people when they rip down Portland, when they ripped down many other cities.
	You go to Minnesota, Minneapolis, what they've done there with the fires all over the city.
	If I didn't bring in the National Guard, that city would have been destroyed.
	When you look at all of the they took over big chunks of Seattle, I was all set to bring in the National Guard.
	They heard that.
	They saw them coming and they left immediately.
	What he said about this whole subject is so off, peacefully patriotic.
	One other thing.
	The unselect committee, which is basically two horrible Republicans that are all gone now, out of office, and Democrats, all Democrats, they destroyed and deleted all of the information they found because they found out we were right.
	We were right.
	And they deleted and destroyed all of the information.
	They should go to jail for that.
	If a Republican did that, they'd go to jail.
	Thank you, President Trump.
	President Biden, I want to give you a minute.
	The only person on this stage who's a convicted felon is the man I'm looking at right now.
	And the fact of the matter is, he isn't, what he's telling you is simply not true.
	The fact is that there was no effort on his part to stop what was going on up in Capitol Hill.
	And all those people, every one of those who were convicted, deserves to be convicted.
	The idea that they didn't kill somebody, just went in and broke down doors, broke the windows, occupied offices, turned over desks, turned them over statues.
	The idea that those people are patriots?
	Come on.
	When I asked him the first two debates we had, the debates we had first time around, I said, will you denounce the proud boy?
	He said, no, I'll tell them to stand by.
	The idea he's refusing to, will you denounce these guys?
	Will you denounce the people we're talking about now?
	We denounce the people who attacked that Capitol.
	What are you going to do?
	I'm going to give you a minute, President Trump, for a follow-up question I have.
	Ignore them.
	After a jury commented on you of 34 felonies last month, you said if re-elected, you would, quote, have every right to go after, unquote, your political opponents.
	You just talked about members of the select committee on January 6th going to jail.
	Your main political opponent is standing on stage with you tonight.
	Can you clarify exactly what it means about you feeling you have every right to go after your political opponents?
	Well, I said my retribution is going to be success.
	We're going to make this country successful again because right now it's a failing nation.
	My retribution is going to be success.
	But when he talks about a convicted felon, his son is a convicted felon at a very high level.
	His son is convicted, going to be convicted probably numerous other times.
	Should have been convicted before, but his Justice Department let the statute of limitations lapse on the most important things.
	But he could be a convicted felon as soon as he gets out of office.
	Joe could be a convicted fellow with all of the things that he's done.
	He's done horrible things.
	All of the death caused at the border, telling the Ukrainian people that we're going to want a billion dollars.
	You change the prosecutor.
	Otherwise, you're not getting a billion dollars.
	Have I ever said that?
	That's quid pro quo.
	That we're not going to do anything.
	We're not going to give you a billion dollars unless you change your prosecutor, having to do with his son.
	Yes.
	This man is a criminal.
	This man, you're lucky.
	You're lucky.
	I did nothing wrong.
	We'd have a system that was rigged and disgusting.
	I did nothing wrong.
	Thank you, President Trump.
	President Biden, you have said, I'm coming right to you, sir.
	Well, you want to respond?
	Go ahead.
	I'll give you a minute to respond.
	The idea that I did anything wrong relative to what you're talking about is outrageous.
	It's simply a lie, number one.
	Number two, the idea that you have a right to seek retribution against any American just because you're president is wrong is simply wrong.
	No president's ever spoken like that before.
	No president in our history has spoken like that before.
	Number three, the crimes that you are still charged with.
	And think of all the civil penalties you have.
	How many billions of dollars do you owe in civil penalties for molesting a woman in public, for doing a whole range of things, of having sex with a porn star on the night while your wife was pregnant?
	What are you talking about?
	You have the morals of an alley cat.
	Give me a minute, sir.
	I didn't have sex with a porn star, number one.
	Number two, that was a case that was started and moved.
	They moved a high-ranking official, a DOJ, into the Manhattan DA's office to start that case.
	That case is going to be appealed and won.
	We had a very terrible judge, a horrible judge, Democrat.
	The prosecutor were all high-ranking Democrats, appointed people, and both the civil and the criminal.
	He basically went after his political opponent because he thought it was going to damage me.
	But when the public found out about these cases, because they understand it better than he does, he has no idea what these cases are.
	But when they found out about these cases, you know what they did?
	My poll numbers went up way up.
	You know that because you're reporting it.
	And we took in more money in the last two weeks than we've ever taken in in the history of any campaign.
	I don't think any campaign has ever taken.
	Hundreds of millions of dollars came pouring in because the public knows it's a scam and it's a guy that's after his political opponent because he can't win fair and square.
	Thank you, President Trump.
	President Biden, you have said, quote, Donald Trump and his MAGA Republicans are determined to destroy American democracy.
	Do you believe that the tens of millions of Americans who are likely to vote for President Trump will be voting against American democracy?
	The more they know about what he's done, yes.
	The more they know about what he's done.
	And there's a lot more coming.
	He's got a lot of cases down the road coming on.
	He's got a whole range of issues he has to face.
	I don't know what the juries will do, but I do know he has a real problem.
	And so the fact that...
	It is.
	Could you ever think you hear any president say that I'm going to seek retribution?
	Do you ever hear any president say that I thought Hitler had some good ideas?
	What got me involved to run in the first place after my son had died in Iraq because of Iraq, I said I wasn't going to run again until I saw what happened in Charlottesville, Virginia.
	People coming out of the woods carrying swastikas on torches, torches, and singing the same anti-Semitic bile they sang back in Germany.
	And the young woman spoke to the mother.
	And they asked him, they said, what do you think of those people?
	The people who got killed, the one that tried to stop it, and the ones, he said, I think they're fine people on both sides.
	What American president would ever say, Nazis coming out of fields carrying torches, singing the same anti-Semitic bile, carrying swastikas were fine people.
	And this is a guy who says Hitler's done some good things.
	I'd like to know what they are.
	What?
	The good things Hitler's done.
	That's what he said.
	This guy has no sense of American democracy.
	President Trump.
	Jake, both of you know that story has been totally wiped out because when you see the sentence, it said 100% exoneration on this.
	So he just keeps it going.
	He says he ran because of Charlottesville.
	He didn't run because of Charlottesville.
	He ran because it was his last chance.
	He's not equipped to be president.
	You know it, and I know it.
	It's ridiculous.
	We have a debate.
	We're trying to justify his presidency.
	His presidency, without question, the worst president, the worst presidency in the history of our country.
	We shouldn't be having a debate about it.
	There's nothing to debate.
	He made up the Charlottesville story, and you'll see it's debunked all over the place.
	Every anchor has, every reasonable anchor has debunked it.
	And just the other day it came out where it was fully debunked.
	It's a nonsense story.
	He knows that.
	And he didn't run because of Charlottesville.
	He used that as an excuse to run.
	President Biden.
	And debunked.
	It happened.
	All you have to do is listen to what was said at the time.
	And the idea that somehow that's the only reason I ran.
	I ran because I was worried a guy like this guy could get elected.
	If he thought they were good people coming out of that forest, carrying those woods, carrying those torches, then he didn't deserve to be president.
	Didn't deserve to be president at all.
	And the idea that he's talking about all this being fabricated, we saw with our own eyes.
	We saw what happened on January 2nd.
	We saw the people breaking through the windows.
	We saw people occupying his own vice president.
	Look, there's a reason why 40 of his 44 top cabinet officers refused to endorse him this time.
	His vice president hasn't endorsed him this time.
	So why?
	Why?
	They know him well.
	They serve with him.
	Why are they not endorsing him?
	Thank you, President Biden.
	We're going to be right back with more from the CNN presidential debate.
	DBD.
	You're going to pause it.
	By the way, are we going to discuss this?
	Rob, do me a favor, Rob.
	Go to my Twitter account.
	Go to my Twitter account.
	Yeah.
	You're standing up in the middle of the camera, guys.
	Yo, you're fine.
	Guys, go to the bathroom.
	You can do your thing.
	We're here.
	If you do need to, I'm going to show you right now.
	Rob, go to my last tweet.
	Guys, if you can do me a favor, you can walk around, but don't make a lot of noise.
	Yeah, not too much noise, guys.
	You guys can go to the bathroom.
	Just keep it down so the audience can hear us.
	This is because you'd be in jail moment and it's over after this.
	Go ahead, Rob.
	This is it.
	This is what it was done with.
	The total initiative relative to what we're going to do with more Border Patrol and more asylum officers.
	President Trump?
	I really don't know what he said at the end of this.
	I don't think he knows what he said either.
	It's over.
	It's done.
	By the way, this is, I don't even know what word to use.
	This is done.
	This is embarrassing.
	And the most important question every voter has to answer is the following.
	Okay.
	What is the likelihood that China, Russia, and Iran's watching this right now?
	100%.
	Let me ask you a question.
	If they could somehow, some way participate to manipulate our election, which one of those two do you think they would prefer winning the election?
	Joe Biden, not even Joe Biden.
	That's the only thing you, if the only way you vote, if you're trying to make sure the country is safe for you, your wife, your husband, your kids, ask the question, do you believe China, Russia, and Iran hate America?
	If they do, do you believe they would prefer to go up against a Trump or a Biden?
	Based on whatever your answer is, vote accordingly.
	Wow.
	And I genuinely think, because we all, we know, everybody here knows what they just saw.
	That's them not giving him the drugs.
	That's them shifting off of him, Pat.
	This is proof from the state of the union to right now.
	That's exactly what they wanted.
	That's why Gavin Newsom's ass is at the debate.
	I'm telling you guys right now, this is everybody shifting off of Adam.
	That moment, that switch and bait and whatever you called it, that is it.
	There's no, and his voice is rasp because for a week, they've been making him practice and yell and scream and whatever.
	And this is the result.
	I don't know what you're talking about.
	I thought he looked great.
	Yeah.
	No, I thought Biden looked sharp.
	I thought he looked on point.
	Would you agree, though?
	Because what happened to the drugged up, you know, giving him the stuff?
	And that's not the same guy.
	Meaning figuratively and not whatever.
	That's not the same guy that was at the State of the Union.
	That is the most embarrassing shit I've seen.
	Yeah, I'll actually be serious right now.
	This is a watershed moment in American history.
	I've watched every single debate, every single presidential debate since 1992, because Bill Clinton was my guy.
	And this is literally the worst debate performance I've ever seen.
	This is embarrassing for America.
	This is embarrassing for the Democratic Party.
	This is embarrassing for Joe Biden, if he even still doesn't know what's happening right now.
	It's not a good look.
	And they're going to have to go back to the drawing board literally after this bathroom break and say, what the hell are we going to do for now?
	They spent a week prepping for this.
	This is what you get.
	16 people.
	They supposedly were going to give him drugs and drug him up.
	Why didn't you do it, guys?
	I said at the beginning of this podcast, the goal of Joe Biden should not be to win the debate.
	It was to not lose.
	You showed, dude, do a C, pass the test.
	This is an F minus.
	He's failed.
	It's embarrassing.
	I'll tell you this.
	He used the convicted felon line twice, you know, with the over-under was three.
	I'd rather have a convicted felon than a certified vegetable, a certified vegetable in the White House.
	How can, here's a message to any Democratic friends of mine that are watching this and to the blue no matter who crowd.
	How can you possibly vote for this?
	Put away all your feelings about Trump, all the, you know, both sides, all the stuff, January 6th.
	How in the world can you say, yep, he's got my vote?
	It's embarrassing.
	And I mean this sincerely.
	Joe Biden.
	Thank you for your 50 years of contribution to America to a record low presidency.
	Black families still earn far less than white families.
	Black mothers are still three times more likely to die for pregnancy-related causes.
	And black Americans are imprisoned at five times the rate of white Americans.
	What do you say to black voters who are disappointed that you haven't made more progress?
	They acknowledge they made a lot of progress, number one.
	The fact of the matter is there are more small black businesses that have been started than any time in history.
	Number two, the wages of black unemployment is the lowest level it's been in a long, long time.
	Number three, we find them providing housing for black Americans and dealing with the segregation that exists among these corporate operations that collude people out of their houses.
	And in addition to that, we find that the impact on the choice that black families have to make relative to child care is incredibly difficult.
	When we did the first major piece of legislation in the past, I was able to reduce black child care costs.
	I cut them in half, in half.
	We've got to make sure we provide for child care costs.
	We've got to make sure because when you provide those child care protections, you increase economic growth because more people can be in the job market.
	So there's more to be done, considerably more to be done.
	But we've done a great deal so far, and I'm not letting up, and they know it.
	You have 49 seconds left.
	What do you say to black voters who are disappointed with the progress so far?
	I say I don't blame them for being disappointed.
	Inflation is still hurting them badly.
	For example, I provided for the idea that any black family, first-time homebuyer, should get a $10,000 tax credit to be able to buy their first home so they can get started.
	I made sure that we're in a situation where all those black families and those black individuals who provided had to take out student loans that were ballooning, that if they were engaged in nursing.
	Did he just say ballooning?
	Anything having to do with ballooning?
	They paid their bills for 10 years on their student debt.
	All the rest was forgiven after 10 years.
	That's quick confidence from that.
	And we're going to do a whole lot of black families.
	Thank you, President.
	And he caused the inflation.
	He's blaming inflation, and he's right.
	It's been very bad.
	He caused the inflation, and it's killing black families and Hispanic families and just about everybody.
	It's killing people.
	They can't buy groceries anymore.
	They can't.
	You look at the cost of food where it's doubled and tripled and quadrupled.
	They can't live.
	They're not living anymore.
	He caused this inflation.
	I gave him a country with no, essentially no inflation.
	It was perfect.
	It was so good.
	All he had to do was leave it alone.
	He destroyed it with his Green News scam and all of the other, all this money that's being thrown out the window.
	He caused inflation.
	As sure as you're sitting there, the fact is that his big kill on the black people is the millions of people that he's allowed to come in through the border.
	They're taking black jobs now, and it could be 18, it could be 19, and even 20 million people.
	They're taking black jobs, and they're taking Hispanic jobs, and you haven't seen it yet, but you're going to see something that's going to be the worst in our history.
	Thank you.
	President Biden?
	There was no inflation when I became president.
	You know why?
	The economy was flat on its back.
	15% unemployment.
	He decimated the economy, absolutely decimated the economy.
	That's why there was no inflation at the time.
	There were no jobs.
	We provided thousands and millions of jobs for individuals in ball communities, including minority communities.
	We made sure that they have health insurance.
	We have covered, the ACA has increased, I made sure that there are $8,000 per person in a family to get written off for health care.
	But this guy wants to eliminate that.
	They tried 50 times.
	He wants to get rid of the ACA again.
	And they're going to try again if they win.
	You find ourselves in a position where the idea that we're not doing any, I've put more, we put more police on the street than any administration has.
	He wants to cut the cops.
	We're providing for equity, equity, and making sure people have a shot to make it.
	There's a lot going on, but in inflation, he caused it by his tremendous mouthfeasance and the way he handled the pandemic.
	Thank you.
	Another persistent challenge is the climate crisis.
	2023 was the hottest year in recorded history and communities across the country are confronting the devastating effects of extreme heat, intensifying wildfires, stronger hurricanes, and rising sea levels.
	Former President Trump, you've vowed to end your opponent's climate initiatives, but will you take any action as president to slow the climate crisis?
	Well, let me just go back to what he said about the police, how close the police are to him.
	Almost every police group in the nation from every state is supporting Donald J. Trump, almost every police group.
	And what he's done to the black population is horrible, including the fact that for 10 years he called them super predators.
	We can't, in the 1990s, we can't forget that.
	Super Predators was his name.
	And he pulled it to him.
	And they've taken great offense at it.
	And now they see it happening.
	But when they see what I did for criminal justice reform and for the historically black colleges and universities, where I funded them and got them all funded, and the opportunity zones with Tim, as you know, Tim Scott was incredible.
	He did a great job.
	Great senator from South Carolina.
	He came to me with the idea and it was a great idea.
	It's one of the most successful economic development acts ever in the country, opportunity zones.
	And the biggest beneficiary are blacks.
	And that's why we have the best numbers with them in maybe ever.
	They're saying ever.
	I read this morning wherever the best numbers.
	He's lost much of the black population because he's done a horrible job for black people.
	He's also done a horrible job for Hispanics.
	But when you see these millions of people pouring into our country and they're going to take the jobs, and it's already started, and you haven't seen anything yet.
	It's a disaster.
	You've 38 seconds left, President Trump.
	Will you take any action as president to slow the climate crisis?
	So I want absolutely immaculate clean water and I want absolutely clean air and we had it.
	We had H2O.
	We had the best numbers ever.
	And we did all using all forms of energy, all forms, everything.
	And yet, during my four years, I had the best environmental numbers ever.
	And my top environmental people gave me that statistic just before I walked on the stage, actually.
	I don't know where the hell he's been.
	The idea today he said is true.
	I passed the most extensive, most extensive climate change legislation in history, in history.
	We find ourselves, and by the way, black colleges, I came up with $15 billion for HBCUs, historic black universities and colleges, because they don't have the kind of contributors that they have to build these laboratories and the like.
	Any black student is capable in college of doing what any white student can do.
	They just have the money, but now they'll be able to get those jobs in high-tech.
	We're in a situation where the idea that he is claiming to have done something that had the cleanest water, the cleanest water, he hadn't done a damn thing for the environment.
	out of the Paris Peace Accord, Climate Accord.
	I immediately joined it because if we reach 1.5 degrees Celsius at any one point, there's no way back.
	The only existential threat to humanity is climate change.
	And he didn't do a damn thing about it.
	He must undo all that I've done.
	The Paris Accord was going to cost us a trillion dollars and China nothing and Russia nothing and India nothing.
	It was a ripoff of the United States.
	And I ended it because I didn't want to waste that money because they treat us horribly.
	We were the only ones.
	It was costing us money.
	Nobody else was paying it to it.
	And it was a disaster.
	But everything that he said just now, I'll give you an example.
	I heard him say before, insulin.
	I'm the one that got the insulin down for the seniors.
	I took care of the seniors.
	What he's doing is destroying all of our medical programs because the migrants coming in, they want everybody.
	And look, I have the biggest heart on the stage.
	I guarantee you that.
	And I want to take care of people.
	But we're destroying our country.
	They're taking over our schools, our hospitals, and they're going to be taking over Social Security.
	He is destroying Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
	The idea is that we, in fact, we were the only ones of consequence who were not members of the Paris Accord.
	How can we do anything?
	The United States can't get us under control.
	One of the largest polluters in the world.
	Number one.
	We're making significant progress.
	By 2035, we will have cut pollution in half.
	We have made significant progress, and we're continuing to make progress.
	We set up a climate corps for thousands of young people who will learn how to deal with climate, just like the Peace Corps.
	And we're moving in directions that are going to significantly change the elements that cause of pollution.
	But the idea that he claims that he has the biggest heart up here and he's really concerned about pollution and about climate, I'm not seeing any indication of that.
	And by the way, with regard to prescription drugs, one company agreed that they would reduce the price to $35, which I was calling for, one, voluntarily.
	I made sure every company in the world, every pharmaceutical company, cannot have to pay.
	And by the way.
	Cut them off.
	So every day millions of Americans struggle just to make ends meet.
	For many older Americans, Social Security provides a critical lifeline.
	President Biden, if nothing is done to Social Security, seniors will see their benefits cut in just over 10 years.
	Will you name tonight one specific step that you're willing to take to keep Social Security solvent?
	Yes, make the very wealthy begin to pay their fair share.
	Right now, everybody making under $170,000 pays 6% of their income, of their paycheck, every single time they get a paycheck from the time of the first one they get when they're 18 years old.
	The idea that they're going to, I'm not proposing that everybody, they pay, the millionaires pay 1%, 1%.
	So no one after, I would not raise the cost of Social Security for anybody under $400,000.
	After that, I began to make the wealthy begin to pay their fair share by increasing from 1% beyond to be able to guarantee the program for life.
	So you still have 82 seconds left.
	Are there any other measures that you think that would be able to help keep Social Security solvent or is just is that one enough?
	Well, no, that one enough will keep it solvent.
	But the biggest thing I'll do is we defeat this man because he wants to get rid of Social Security.
	He thinks there's plenty to cut in Social Security.
	He's wanting to cut Social Security and Medicare both times.
	And if you look at the program put forward by the House Republican caucus that he high fully supports is in fact want to cut it as well.
	The idea that we don't need to protect our seniors is ridiculous.
	And by the way, the American public has greater health care coverage today than ever before.
	And on the ACA, as I said, you're in a circumstance where 400,000 people, I mean 40 million people would not have insurance because they have a pre-existing condition.
	Only that allows them to have that insurance is the fact that they, in fact, are part of the ACA.
	And by the way, the other thing is, we're in a situation where I talk about education for black communities.
	I've raised the number, the amount of money for Pell Grants by another $8,000.
	So anybody making under $70,000 a year is going to be able to get $15,000 toward their tuition.
	He just doesn't know what he's talking about.
	Thank you, President Biden.
	President Trump.
	So I've dealt with politicians all my life.
	I've been on this side of the equation for the last eight years.
	I've never seen anybody lie like this guy.
	He lies.
	I've never seen that.
	He can look you in the face about so many other things, too.
	And we mentioned the laptop.
	We mentioned Russia, Russia, Russia, Ukraine, Ukraine, everything he does is a lie.
	It's misinformation and disinformation.
	The losers and sucker story that he made up is a total lie on the military.
	It's a disgrace.
	But Social Security, he's destroying it because millions of people are pouring into our country and they're putting them onto Social Security.
	They're putting them onto Medicare, Medicaid.
	They're putting them in our hospitals.
	They're taking the place of our citizens there.
	What they're doing to the VA, to our veterans, is unbelievable.
	Our veterans are living in the street, and these people are living in luxury hotels.
	He doesn't know what he's doing.
	And it's really coming back.
	I've never seen such anger in our country before.
	President Biden?
	The idea that veterans are not being taken care of, I told you before.
	And by the way, when I said suckers and losers, he said he acknowledged after that he fired that general.
	That general got fired because he's the one that acknowledged that that's what he said.
	He was the one standing with Trump when he said it.
	Number one.
	Number two, the idea that we're going to be in a situation where all these millions and millions, the way he talks about it, illegal aliens are coming into the country and taking away our jobs.
	There's a reason why we have the fastest growing economy in the world.
	The reason why we have the most successful economy in the world.
	We're doing better than any other nation in the world.
	And by the way, those 15 Nobel laureates he talked about being phony, those 15 Nobel laureates, economists, they all said that if Trump is re-elected, we're elected to have a recession, and inflation is going to increasingly go up.
	And by the way, worst president of history, 159 presidential scholars voted him the worst president in the history of the United States of America.
	President Biden, thank you so much.
	Let's turn to the cost of child care, which many American families struggle to afford.
	President Trump, both you and President Biden, have tried to address this issue, but the average cost of child care in this country has risen to more than $11,000 a year per child.
	For many families, the cost of child care for two children is more than their rent.
	In your second term, what would you do to make child care more affordable?
	Just to go back, the general got fired because he was no good.
	And if he said that, that's why he made it up.
	But we have 19 people that said I didn't say it, and they're very highly respected, much more so than him.
	The other thing is he doesn't fire people.
	He never fired people.
	I've never seen him fire anybody.
	I did fire a lot.
	I fired Comey because he was no good.
	I fired a lot of the top people at the FBI, drained the swamp.
	They were no good.
	Not easy to fire people.
	You'd pay a price for it, but they were no good.
	I inherited these people.
	I didn't put them.
	I didn't put Comey there.
	He was no good.
	I fired him.
	This guy hasn't fired anybody.
	He never fires.
	He should have fired every military man that was involved with that Afghan, the Afghanistan horror show, the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country.
	He didn't fire.
	Did you fire anybody?
	Did you fire anybody that's on the border that's allowed us to have the worst border in the history of the world?
	Did anybody get fired for allowing 18 million people, many from prisons, many from mental institutions?
	Did you fire anybody that allowed our country to be destroyed?
	Joe, our country is being destroyed as you and I sit up here and waste a lot of time on this debate.
	This shouldn't be a debate.
	He is the worst president.
	He just said it about me because I said it.
	But look, he's the worst president in the history of our country.
	He's destroyed our country.
	Now all of a sudden he's trying to get a little tough on the border.
	He came out with a nothing deal, and it reduced it a little bit, a little bit, like this much.
	It's insignificant.
	He wants open borders.
	He wants our country to either be destroyed or he wants to pick up those people as voters.
	And I don't think we just can't let it happen.
	If he wins this election, our country doesn't have a chance, not even a chance, of coming out of this rut.
	We probably won't have a country left anymore.
	That's how bad it is.
	He is the worst in history by far.
	Thank you, President Trump.
	President Biden.
	We're the most admired country in the world.
	We're the United States of America.
	There's nothing beyond our capacity.
	We have the finest military in the history of the world, the finest in the history of the world.
	No one thinks we're weak.
	No one wants to screw around with us.
	Nobody.
	They think you're one.
	Not we.
	Number two.
	The idea that we're talking about worst presidents, I wasn't joking.
	Look it up.
	Go online.
	159 or 58, don't hold me the exact number, presidential historians.
	They've had meetings and they voted who's the worst president in American history, one through best to worst.
	They said he was the worst in all of American history.
	That's a fact.
	That's not conjecture.
	He can argue they're wrong, but that's what they voted.
	The idea that he is doing anything to deal with child care, he did virtually nothing to child care.
	We should significantly increase the child care tax credit.
	We should significantly increase the availability of women and men or single parents to be able to go back to work.
	And we should encourage businesses to hold.
	President Trump, the question was about what would you do to make child care more affordable if you want to take your minute.
	Just so you understand.
	We have polling.
	We have other things that do.
	They rate him the worst because what he's done is so bad.
	And they rate me, I'll show you, I will show you.
	And they rate me one of the best, okay?
	And if I'm given another four years, I will be the best.
	I think I'll be the best.
	Nobody's ever created an economy like us.
	Nobody ever cut taxes like us.
	He's the only one I know.
	He wants to raise your taxes by four times.
	He wants to raise everybody's taxes by four times.
	He wants the Trump tax cuts to expire so everybody, including the two of you, are going to pay four to five times.
	All my life I blow up and I see politicians talking about cutting taxes.
	When we cut taxes, as I said, we did more business.
	Apple and all these companies, they were bringing money back into our country.
	The worst president in history by far, and everybody knows it.
	President Biden.
	Look, the fact of the matter is that he's dead wrong about he's increased the tariff.
	He's increased, he will increase the taxes on middle-class people.
	I said I'd never raise a tax upon anybody making less than $400,000.
	I didn't.
	But his tariff is 10% tariffs.
	Everything coming in the country, you know what the economists say?
	That's going to cost the average American $2,500 a year more because they're going to have to pay the difference in food and all the things that are important.
	Number two, he's in a situation where he talks about how he has not raised.
	He somehow has to do with the purpose of the purpose.
	This is all on purpose.
	The president has been devastated by you.
	Now you want a new tax cut of $5 trillion over the next 10 years, which is going to fundamentally bankrupt the country.
	You had the largest deficit of any president in American history, number one.
	Number two, you have not, in fact, made any contact, any progress with China.
	We are at a lowest trade deficit which Trump's lost since 2010.
	Thank you, President Bud.
	Thank you, President Bud.
	Let's discuss an epidemic impacting millions of Americans that both of you have made a top priority in your first term, the opioid crisis.
	And for both of you, the number of overdose deaths in this country has gone up.
	Under your term, it went up.
	Under your term, it has gone up.
	Former President Trump, despite the efforts that both of you have made, more than 100,000 Americans are dying from overdoses every year, primarily from fentanyl and other opioids.
	What will you do to help Americans right now in the throes of addiction who are struggling to get the treatment they need?
	To finish up, we now have the largest deficit in the history of our country under this guy.
	We have the largest deficit with China.
	He gets paid by China.
	He's a Manchurian candidate.
	He gets money from China.
	So I think he's afraid to deal with them or something.
	But do you notice he never took out my tariffs because we bring in so much money with the tariffs that I imposed on China?
	He never took them away.
	He can't because it's too much money.
	It's tremendous.
	And we saved our steel industries and there was more to come, but he hasn't done that.
	But he hasn't cut the tariffs because he can't, because it's too much money.
	But he's got the largest deficit in the history of our country, and he's got the worst situation with China.
	China's going to own us if you keep allowing them to do what they're doing to us as a country.
	They are killing us as a country, Joe, and you can't let that happen.
	You're destroying our country.
	So, President Trump, you have 67 seconds left.
	The question was, what are you going to do to help Americans in the throes of addiction right now who are struggling to get the treatment they need?
	Jake, we were doing very well at addiction until the COVID came along.
	We had the two and a half, almost three years of like nobody's ever had before, any country in every way.
	And then we had to get tough, and the drugs pouring across the border were it started to increase.
	We got great equipment.
	We bought the certain dog that's the most incredible thing that you've ever seen, the way they can spot it.
	We did a lot, and we were getting very low numbers, very, very low numbers.
	Then he came along.
	The numbers, have you seen the numbers now?
	It's not only the 18 million people that I believe is even low because the gotaways, they don't even talk about gotaways, but the numbers of the amount of drugs and human trafficking in women coming across our border, the worst thing I've ever seen, at numbers that nobody's ever seen under him because the border's so bad.
	But the number of drugs coming across our border now is the largest we've ever had by far.
	President Trump, thank you, President Biden.
	Fentanyl and the byproducts of fentany went down for a while.
	And I wanted to make sure we use the machinery that can detect fentanyl, these big machines that roll over everything that comes across the border.
	And it costs a lot of money.
	That was part of this deal we put together, this bipartisan deal.
	More fentanyl machines, more to be able to detect drugs, more numbers of agents, more numbers of all people at the border.
	And when we had that deal done, he called his Republican colleagues and said, don't do it.
	It's going to hurt me politically.
	He never argued it's not a good bill.
	It's a really good bill.
	We need those machines.
	We need those machines.
	And we're coming down very hard in every country in Asia in terms of precursors for fentanyl.
	And Mexico is working with us to make sure they don't have the technology to be able to put it together.
	That's what we have to do.
	We need those machines.
	Thank you, President Biden.
	President Trump, and again, the question is about Americans in the throes of addiction right now struggling to get the treatment they need.
	Well, this because this does pertain to it.
	He ended Remain in Mexico.
	He ended catch and release.
	I made a catch and release in Mexico, not catch and release here.
	We had so many things that we had done, hard negotiations with Mexico, and I got it all for nothing.
	It's just like when you have a hostage, we always pay $6 billion for a hostage.
	Every time we say it's a hostage.
	Now we have a hostage, a Wall Street Journal reporter, I think a good guy, and he's over there because Putin is laughing at this guy, probably asking for billions of dollars for the reporter.
	I will have him out very quickly.
	As soon as I take office, before I take office, I said by literally, as soon as I win the election, I will have that reporter out.
	He should have had him out a long time ago, but Putin's probably asking for billions and billions of dollars because this guy pays it every time.
	We had two cases where he paid $6 billion for five people.
	I got 58 people out, and I paid essentially nothing.
	Thank you, President Trump, Dana.
	Let's turn to concerns that voters have about each of you.
	President Biden, you would be 86 at the end of your second term.
	How do you address concerns about your capability to handle the toughest job in the world well into your 80s?
	Well, first of all, I spent half my career being criticized as being the youngest person in politics.
	I was the second youngest person ever elected to the United States Senate.
	And now I'm the oldest.
	This guy's three years younger and a lot less competent.
	I think that just look at the record.
	Look at what I've done.
	Look, I've turned around the horrible situation he left me.
	As I said, 15 million new jobs, 800,000 manufacturing jobs, more investment in America, over billions of dollars in private investment in enterprises that we are growing.
	By the way, we brought off a lot of people.
	The whole idea of computer chips, we used to have 40% of the market.
	We invented those chips.
	And we lost it because he was sending people to find the cheapest jobs overseas and bring home a product.
	So I went to South Korea.
	I convinced Samsung to invest billions of dollars here in the United States.
	And guess what?
	Those fabs, they call them, to build these chips.
	Those fabs pay over $100,000.
	You don't need a college degree for them.
	And there's billions, about $40 billion already being invested and being built right now in the United States, creating significant jobs for Americans from all over the world.
	President Biden, you have 40 seconds left.
	Would you like to add anything?
	Yeah, I would.
	The idea that somehow we are this failing country.
	I never heard a president talk like this before.
	We're the envy of the world.
	Name me a single major country president who wouldn't trade places with the United States of America for all our problems and all our opportunities.
	We're the most progressive country in the world in getting things done.
	We're the strongest country in the world.
	We're a country in the world who keeps our word, and everybody trusts us, all of our allies and those who he coddles up to, from Kim Jong-un who he sends love letters to, Putin, et cetera.
	They don't want to screw around with us.
	Thank you.
	Former President Trump, to follow up, you would be 82 at the end of your second term.
	What do you say to voters who have concerns about your capabilities to serve?
	Well, I took two tests, cognitive tests, I aced them, both of them, as you know.
	We made it public.
	He took none.
	I'd like to see him take one, just one, a real easy one.
	Like go through the first five questions.
	He couldn't do it.
	But I took two cognitive tests.
	I took physical exams every year.
	And, you know, we knock on wood wherever we may have wood that I'm in very good health.
	I just won two club championships, not even senior championships.
	To do that, you have to be quite smart and you have to be able to hit the ball a long way.
	And I do it.
	He doesn't do it.
	He can't hit a ball 50 yards.
	He challenged me to a golf match.
	He can't hit a ball 50 yards.
	I think I'm in very good shape.
	I feel that I'm as in good a shape as I was 25, 30 years ago.
	Actually, I'm probably a little bit lighter, but I'm in as good a shape as I was years ago.
	I feel very good.
	I feel the same.
	But I was willing to take a cognitive test.
	And you know what?
	If I didn't do well, I aced him.
	Dr. Ronnie Jackson, who's a great guy when he was White House doctor.
	And then I took another one, a similar one.
	And both, one of them said they'd never seen anybody ace him.
	Thank you.
	President Biden?
	You can see he is 6'5 and only 220 pounds, or 20, 35 pounds.
	Well, you said 6'4 ⁇ , 200.
	I remember spending a six-year-old.
	Well, anyway, that's it.
	Anyway, just take a look at what he says he is and take a look at what he is.
	Look, I'd be happy to have a driving contest with him.
	I got my handicap, which when I was vice president, down to a six.
	And by the way, what happens if they both carry your own bag?
	You can do it.
	That's the biggest one.
	He's a six-handicap of all.
	I was an eight-handicap.
	Now they're arguing about golf.
	Golf fighting.
	You swing.
	I know you swing.
	Let's not act like children.
	President Trump, we're going to go to the bottom.
	Let's not act like children.
	To a specific concern that voters have about you.
	Will you pledge tonight that once all legal challenges have been exhausted, that you will accept the results of this election, regardless of who wins, and you will say right now that political violence in any form is unacceptable?
	Well, I shouldn't have to say that, but of course I believe that.
	It's totally unacceptable.
	And if you would see my statements that I made on Twitter at the time, and also my statement that I made in the Rose Guard, you would say it's one of the strongest statements you've ever seen.
	In addition to the speech I made, in front of, I believe, the largest crowd I've ever spoken to, and I will tell you, nobody ever talks about that.
	They talk about a relatively small number of people that went to the Capitol and in many cases were ushered in by the police.
	And as Nancy Pelosi said, it was her responsibility, not mine.
	She said that loud and clear.
	But the answer is: if the election is fair, free, and I want that more than anybody.
	And I'll tell you something.
	I wish he was a great president because I wouldn't be here right now.
	I'd be at one of my many places enjoying myself.
	I wouldn't be under indictment because I wouldn't have been his political opponent because he indicted me because I was his opponent.
	I wish he was a great president.
	I would rather have that.
	I wouldn't be here.
	I don't mind being here.
	But the only reason I'm here is he's so bad as a president that I'm going to make America great again.
	We're going to make a nation because of him.
	His policies are so bad.
	His military policies are insane.
	They're insane.
	These are wars that will never end with him.
	He will drive us into World War III.
	And we're closer to World War III than anybody can imagine.
	We are very, very close to World War III.
	And he's driving us there.
	And Kim Jong-un and President Xi of China, Kim Jong-un of North Korea, all of these, Putin, they don't respect him.
	They don't fear him.
	They have nothing going with this gentleman.
	And he's going to drive us into World War III.
	You want a World War III?
	Let him follow and win, and let Putin say, do what you want, NATO.
	Just do what you want.
	There's a thing called Article 5.
	Attack on one is attack on all and required response.
	The idea, the idea.
	I can't think of a single major leader in the world who wouldn't trade places with the job I've done and what they've done.
	Because we are a powerful nation.
	We have wonderful people.
	It's because of the people, not me.
	It's because of the American people.
	They're capable of anything and they step up when they're needed.
	And right now, we're needed.
	We're needed to protect the world because our own safety is at stake.
	And again, you want to have a war, just let Putin go ahead and take Kyiv, make sure they move on, see what happens in Poland, Hungary, and other places along that border.
	Then you have a war.
	President Trump, as I come back to you for a follow-up, the question was: will you accept the results of this election, regardless of who wins?
	Just to finish what he said, if I might, Russia, they took a lot of land from Bush.
	They took a lot of land from Obama and Biden.
	They took no land, nothing from Trump.
	Nothing.
	He knew not to do it.
	Not going to play games with me.
	He knew that.
	I got along with him very well, but he knew not to play games.
	He took nothing from me.
	But now he's going to take the whole thing from this man right here.
	That's a war that should have never started.
	It would have never started ever with me.
	And he's going to take Ukraine.
	And, you know, you asked me a question before: would you do this?
	He's got us in such a bad position right now with Ukraine and Russia because Ukraine's not winning that war.
	He said, I will never settle until such time.
	They're running out of people.
	They're running out of soldiers.
	They've lost so many people.
	It's so sad.
	They've lost so many people, and they've lost those gorgeous cities with the golden domes that are a thousand years old, all because of him and stupid decisions.
	Russia would have never attacked if I were.
	The question was: will you accept the results of the election, regardless of who wins?
	Yes or no, please?
	If it's a fair and legal and good election, absolutely.
	I would have much rather accepted these, but the fraud and everything else was ridiculous.
	And if you want, we'll have a news conference on it in a week, or we'll have another one of these in a week.
	But I will absolutely, there's nothing I'd rather do.
	It would be much easier for me to do that than I'm running again.
	I wasn't really going to run until I saw the horrible job he did.
	He's destroying our country.
	I would be very happy to be someplace else in a nice location someplace.
	And again, no indictments, no political opponent stuff, because it's the only way he thinks he can win.
	But unfortunately, it's driven up my numbers and driven them up to a very high level because the people understand it.
	Let's see what your numbers are when this election is over.
	Let's see.
	Let's see.
	Oh, wow.
	You're a whiner.
	When you lost the first time, you continued.
	You appealed an appeal to courts all across the country.
	Not one single court in America said any of your claims had any merit, state or local, none.
	But you continue to provoke this lie about somehow there's all this misrepresentation, all this stealing.
	There is no evidence of that at all.
	And I tell you what, I doubt whether you'll accept it because you're such a whiner.
	The idea, if you lose again, you accepting anything, you can't stand the loss.
	Something snapped in you when you lost the last time.
	We'll be right back with more from the CNN presidential debate live from Georgia.
	Rob, how long is this debate?
	Is it an hour and a half or two hours?
	I thought it was only an hour and a half.
	They're going to keep you through.
	They want to sell a little ad time commercial time.
	All right.
	They're going to come back and say, all right, wrap up.
	I want to ask you guys a question.
	I want to ask you guys a question.
	If I can get your attention, please.
	Can you go on Twitter real quick?
	Let me tell you guys what's the weirdest thing I just wrote down here that I'm a little bit confused with.
	If you can please.
	So a few things.
	Go back to how many of the debates we've done in the past, right?
	Especially with Trump.
	How often did moderators interrupt Trump every time?
	Yep.
	How often did moderators debate on behalf of his opponent every time?
	How often did moderators correct Trump on something he said every single time?
	Why did tonight's moderators start off with inflation?
	Why did they start off with economy first?
	While that's the main pressure point, you should not be covering that first.
	Why has Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, why have they been so fair tonight?
	Why?
	Do you think they're sitting there like, yeah, you know, this is great?
	They're almost acting like they work for Fox News.
	They almost act like they're Republicans, like they're going to vote for Trump.
	So we know that's not the case.
	So what else could it be?
	Is it the fact that they're embarrassed, like they've already accepted the loss?
	Like, I can't wait to get the hell out of here.
	Please hurry up, sell the effing at time so I can get the hell out of here because this is simply embarrassing.
	Or maybe they know something we don't know.
	Maybe behind closed doors, this is what I would do.
	If you're my candidate and I'm one of your people working for you, I'm one of your campaign guys.
	I'm a heavyweight decision maker on the political party.
	I'd come right before him like, where is he?
	He's in a room.
	I want to talk to him privately.
	He's right there.
	Okay, let me go talk to him.
	Joe, how you doing?
	Joe, Joe, how you doing, Joe?
	Joe, how you feeling, Joe?
	No, no, no, no, hang on.
	Because we know, I'm actually not trying to be funny.
	There's bosses of bosses.
	Then I'd go out and say, guys, it's done.
	Where's Gavin?
	Let me talk to him.
	Let's go to the back.
	Take him to the cigar lounge.
	I'm sitting there saying, all right, Plan B is here.
	We're going to know within the first 30 seconds.
	In 1986, Mike Tyson had his fastest knockout ever, 30 seconds.
	The guy named Marvin Frazier.
	Donald Trump broke that record from 1986 tonight.
	It's over.
	So if you and I, as a competitor myself, who is not oblivious to think that the opponent is going to just sit there and say, nah, let him win this one.
	It's okay.
	They know what's going to happen if he gets in there.
	He's going to fire everybody.
	The one point he made, who have you fired, Joe?
	How come you've never fired?
	What a point to make.
	Who have you not fired, right?
	So I think behind closed doors, if you're somebody that thinks the Democratic community, the establishment is super competitive, which I believe they're formidable opponents.
	There's no way in the world they're going to let Jake Tapper and Dana Bash sit there, act like they're Republicans.
	I've never seen anything like this before.
	There's something going on we don't know about behind closed doors, or they've simply thrown in the towel.
	And I simply don't buy the fact that they've thrown in the towel.
	I just don't.
	By the way, that's the knockout, if you're wondering, go ahead and play this.
	They're back to the basement.
	Let's go back to the baseback.
	Let's go back.
	By a coin toss, we're going to begin with you, President.
	What is this, Russia?
	Okay.
	They kept you through a commercial break and they're wrapping up.
	We've made significant progress from the debacle that was left by President Trump in his last term.
	We find ourselves in a situation where, number one, we have to make sure that we have a fair tax system.
	I ask anyone out there in the audience or anyone out watching this debate, do you think the tax system is fair?
	The fact is, I said, nobody even making under $400,000 had a single penny increase in their taxes.
	And if I'm re-elected, that'll be the case again.
	But this guy has increased your taxes because of the deficit.
	Number one, he's increased inflation because Left after the way he handled the pandemic.
	And he finds himself in a position where he now wants to tax you more by putting a 10% tariff on everything that comes in the United States of America.
	What I did when, for example, he wants to get away with, get rid of the ability of Medicare to the ability for us to be able to negotiate drug prices with the big pharma companies.
	Well, guess what?
	We got it down to $35 for insulin instead of $400.
	All on purpose.
	No, more than $2,000 for every senior, no matter how much prescription they need.
	You know what that did?
	That reduced the federal debt by $160 billion over 10 years because the government doesn't have to pay the exorbitant prices.
	I'm going to make that every senior, all the bombers happening now, and everybody in America.
	He wants to get rid of that.
	I'm going to make sure that we have child care.
	We're going to significantly increase the credit people have for child care.
	I'm going to make sure we do something about what we're doing on lead pipes and all the things that are causing health problems for people across the country.
	We're going to continue to fight to bring down inflation and give people a break.
	Thank you, President Biden.
	President Trump, you now have two minutes for your first season.
	Like so many politicians, this man is just a complainer.
	He said, we want to do this, we want to do that, we want to get rid of this tax, that tax.
	But he doesn't do anything.
	All he does is make our country unsafe by allowing millions and millions of people to pour in.
	Our military doesn't respect him.
	We look like fools in Afghanistan.
	We didn't stop Israel.
	It was such a horrible thing that would have never happened.
	It should have never happened.
	Iran was broke.
	Anybody that did business with Iran, including China, they couldn't do business with the United States.
	They all passed.
	Iran was broke.
	They had no money for Hamas or Hezbollah, for terror, no money whatsoever.
	Again, Ukraine should have never happened.
	He talks about all this stuff, but he didn't do it.
	For three and a half years, we're living in hell.
	We have the Palestinians and we have everybody else rioting all over the place.
	You talk about Charlottesville.
	This is 100 times Charlottesville, 1,000 times Charlottesville.
	The whole country is exploding because of you because they don't respect you and they have to respect their president and they don't respect you throughout the world.
	What we did was incredible.
	We rebuilt the military.
	We got the largest tax cut in history, the largest regulation cut in history.
	The reason he's got jobs is because I cut the regulations that gave jobs, but he's putting a lot of those regulations back on.
	All of the things that we've done, nobody's ever seen anything like, even from a medical standpoint, right to try, where we can try space age materials instead of going to Asia or going to Europe and trying to get when you're terminally ill, now you can go and you can get something.
	You sign a document.
	They've been trying to get it for 42 years.
	But you know what we did for the military was incredible choice for our soldiers where our soldiers, instead of waiting for three months to see a doctor, can go out and get themselves fixed up and readied up and take care of themselves and their living.
	And that's why I had the highest approval rating in the history of the VA.
	So all of these things, we're in a failing nation, but it's not going to be failing anymore.
	We're going to make it great again.
	Thank you, former President Trump.
	President Biden, stay with us because we have full analysis of this debate.
	Anderson Cooper and Aaron Burnett starts now on CNN.
	How much do you want to make a bet that they're going to be interviewing Gavin Newsom right now?
	How much do you guys think?
	They don't have a choice.
	They have to.
	President Biden looked exceptional tonight.
	He looked like a caring man who loves his country versus a man who all he cares about is himself.
	That's the script.
	But guess what?
	You can't, listen, you can manipulate anybody for an hour.
	Some for a day, some for a month, some for a year.
	You cannot manipulate majority of the people for three and a half years.
	And the voting base that you need for them to vote for you, the ones independent, libertarian, right in the middle.
	What is the typical quality of an independent and a libertarian?
	Think about the profile of those who vote in the middle.
	Not the left, not the right.
	You got the angry patriots, right?
	And you got the leftists, LGBTQ, all this other stuff.
	Both of them put them aside, right?
	What do libertarians and independents have in common?
	What's the one thing they're capable of doing and why they're always going like this?
	Why do they always go like this?
	I'll tell you what it is.
	What are they willing to do?
	They have the ability to reason.
	That's it.
	That's the only thing.
	And they have to say, all right, let me, all right, I'll give this guy a chance.
	Let me keep my emotions out of it.
	Let me think logically.
	So the libertarian and an independent voter is one that doesn't want to be fooled, right?
	So they're kind of like, no, I'm not going to let this guy fool me because they've been fooled before, right?
	That audience that's watching tonight, they're like, what is going on tonight?
	No, you lost the most important people you needed to win over.
	Tonight wasn't about you winning Democrats over.
	Tonight wasn't about winning Republicans over.
	Tonight was a race of whether Trump or Biden is going to win the independents and libertarians over and Trump won them over tonight.
	Newsom can say whatever he wants to his base.
	He can say whatever he wants to his base.
	No one cares.
	The independents and the libertarians can think for themselves.
	You're not getting their vote.
	And Trump, let's be honest, Trump hasn't missed a step.
	He looks the same that he was seven years ago.
	Same points, same this, same everything.
	And I'm just embarrassing.
	But let me ask you a question, though.
	Let's just say, PBD, I think this is exactly what we said, Adam.
	We had a $100 bet.
	I wouldn't mind upping it because after seeing this, they're definitely going to do the switch.
	Do you, how, how difficult do you think a debate with a snake like Gavin Newsom is going to be?
	Trump has no history with him.
	He can't blame him for everything.
	If Newsom steps up, PBD, how's that debate going to go?
	Phenomenal.
	No, it's phenomenal.
	It's phenomenal.
	It's paper.
	It's Conor McGregor against Khabib.
	It's Joe Frazier against Ali.
	You're talking about like Chicago Bulls against the Pistons the year he beat them.
	It's the Lakers against the Bulls.
	It's the Yankees.
	I mean, this is, if that happens, if that happens, okay?
	If it happens, yes.
	Who said Yanks?
	My man.
	Absolutely.
	But here's the thing.
	You can say snake all you want and you can use all of these things.
	Totally get it.
	Trust me, for those who want Trump to win, you want Biden to stay as the candidate.
	That's what I'm saying.
	I'm telling you.
	Yeah.
	You want to sit there and say, I thought he did a great job.
	Please.
	What a phenomenal job he did tonight.
	Did you see how exceptional he was?
	Wow.
	He seemed like such a noble, prolific debater.
	Did you notice his style?
	His style was to mumble, to be able to confuse his opponent.
	And he was gaslighting his opponent.
	And it's such a creative way.
	That's called genius.
	He's the greatest debater of all time.
	Like, you got to gaslight those people to say, get this motherfucker in there.
	You know what I'm saying?
	Like, one of those things.
	But listen, Obama is one of the most formidable guys in the space of politics, maybe ever.
	In our lifetime, he's there.
	There is no way a brain like Obama, who's a strategist, who understands what's at stake, he knows this next time around Trump's coming for his last four years, it's going to be very different than his first four years.
	Trump's last four years, he doesn't give a shit about getting re-elected.
	See, the first term, you have to play a little bit nice.
	So are we going to do this?
	And because you'd be in jail, and then you become president, like, okay, we ain't doing that shit in the first term.
	We're going to do it on the second term because we got to get re-elected, right?
	Then when you go into the second term, you're like, I don't give a shit if you don't vote for me because this is it for me.
	Guess what?
	Do it all.
	Makes sense.
	That's it.
	It's done.
	So let's say that's what he's going to be doing.
	Guess who's shivering right there saying, dude, whatever we do, we have to delay this guy for four more years to not win because in four years, Trump's going to be 82.
	He's done then.
	We can't let this guy into the White House because if there was Twitter files, what if he hires somebody that does the FBI files?
	What if he brings somebody that's going to be the CIA files?
	What if you bring somebody that's going to do the IRS files?
	What if he finds paper trailing emails in FBI and say, what if he doesn't?
	Guys, there's no way we can let this guy win.
	We got to bring somebody else in.
	So unless if Barack Obama, the Clintons, have nothing to hide and they have nothing to fear, they're going to let this guy go and be the candidate.
	But if they did participate in any of this stuff and they feared that a guy like him that's going to come in, that now's got the, you know, he's got all these people that are backing him up, they can't let him in and they can't let this guy stay.
	This is at the inauguration, when he gave the speech at the inauguration, we did the podcast.
	I was like, this guy actually did a great job.
	Yeah, the state of the union.
	The state of union was like how many months ago?
	Six months ago?
	Yeah.
	We were like, it's actually pretty good.
	He's like, boom.
	And he was debating with the Republicans when they were like, oh, really?
	But why did you do this?
	And why did you do that?
	You're like, oh, shit, he actually looks co, he actually looked coherent and there.
	Yeah.
	No, bro, this is, you can't mark it.
	The Ari Emmanuel, who is maybe the greatest manager representative agent in the history of Hollywood, who could turn a regular guy and sell him as if this guy's going to be the next big Tom Cruise.
	Even Ari Emanuel, if he chose to be this guy's agent, he couldn't even help this guy become a mayor of a small town today.
	I agree.
	That's how bad he looked today.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, when he did the State of the Union, the headlines and the tabloids and every single website, every single news outlet was, you know, the old man still got a little fight in him.
	You know, here we go.
	He's back kind of a thing.
	Tonight, it's going to be very interesting to see what all the headlines and all the news outlets come out with because there's no way to spin this performance.
	You were talking about sports and the Bulls and the Yankees and all that.
	I'll give you a sports analogy.
	This was a blowout of epic proportion.
	And it started in the first quarter.
	If you want to just do a football analogy, dude, by the end of the first quarter, it was 28-zip.
	Okay.
	By halftime, he snuck in a little.
	And you're a convicted criminal.
	It's 35-3 at halftime.
	And by the way, if you're a football fan, 35-3 at halftime, there's no pep talk in the locker room to get you back from that.
	By the time that they come out on the field after the third quarter, Trump's still just throwing the ball around.
	You know, he's connecting.
	Biden's just fumbled, turnover, pick six, bingo, bingo.
	By the end of the game, they're just dancing in the end zone.
	Final score is 72 to 3.
	It's an embarrassment.
	And it's not even close.
	And you're talking to somebody who voted for Biden, who actually beat Trump in the debates in four years ago.
	Trump literally had COVID during the debates, if you remember that one.
	This, like, just as just look from a China.
	Thank you.
	Because it was COVID.
	Forget about who you like.
	Forget about Joe Lake.
	Just look at this complete unbiased.
	This was an embarrassing, tragic performance by Joe Biden.
	Here's where we go from here, by the way.
	The RNC is, I think, mid-July, July 15th in Milwaukee.
	The DNC is mid-August in Chicago.
	And the next debate, here's what actually we have to pay attention to.
	Go ahead.
	The next debate is mid-September.
	I think it's September 10th.
	It won't be Joe.
	Just before 9-11.
	The question will be: will Joe Biden be debated?
	Do you think so?
	Now I have to say that.
	Based on this performance, I wouldn't elect Joe Biden dog catcher to do anything about it.
	But would you horrible?
	No, no, what he's doing is he switched his position.
	Yeah, no, I switched it, but I'm saying you made a, didn't you make a bet with Tom?
	You did make a bet with Tom.
	Yeah.
	But every Vinny, understand something.
	This is a monumental moment in American history.
	I agree with that.
	Our sitting president showed up at the Super Bowl.
	The playoff just happened.
	There was.
	He showed up the day before.
	He showed up at the Super Bowl and laid a goose egg.
	This is embarrassing on epic proportions.
	Yes, everything changed.
	Yes, change your position.
	Everybody, you know, save people are running the asylum.
	Get out while you can.
	And Pet Pippini, one of the best, one of the, and you guys remember one of the best things I think is I wrote it down what Trump said.
	He said, which I think just came out of nowhere.
	He said, I wish Biden was a great president.
	He goes, I wouldn't be here.
	I don't want to be here.
	Powerful.
	Oh, my God.
	He said, I have to be here because of how bad he did it.
	And I'm just, it makes me happy that, like, I like you talk about those people in the middle.
	There's no question right now.
	If you're just floating in the middle and you don't know where to go and you have questions on why the country has gone to shit, you just saw it firsthand.
	That's the guy that's running the country.
	Absolutely.
	By the way, see this headline?
	You see what Drudge is?
	Was it Operation Reply?
	Democrats scrambled.
	See what CNN has to say.
	See what CNBC, see what MSC, see, Rob, see if you can see every single webinar.
	Rob had something else that Pat Pettit.
	You put something in the chat, right?
	Yeah, what was the other one?
	By the way, Border Patrol.
	To be clear, we have never, we never have and never will endorse Biden.
	Border Patrol Union.
	By the way, that's a union.
	Who do unions think?
	Who do unions typically vote for?
	Left.
	Democrat.
	That's the Border Control Union saying, nah, I'm good.
	Guys, this next 130 days is about to get now.
	You've been saying this.
	Get ready for this year.
	It's going to be this.
	Guys, as of tonight, mark tonight.
	Now it's going full force.
	There's no way they're going to ride in with Biden.
	It's over.
	Next.
	Here's MSNBC.
	Left.
	Biden stumbles.
	Trump.
	Caveax election results question.
	Of course, they're going to say, you can accept the results.
	He said, yes, if it's fairly illegal.
	Yeah.
	But at least they're acknowledging the fact that Biden stumbled.
	Stumbled is a nice way to put what he did tonight.
	He stumbled, bumble, fumbled, and just fell across.
	It was a butt fumble, if you remember that thing from Mark Sanchez.
	Horrible.
	So, and there goes everybody that would question people like us that we would say, he's not running the country.
	When he says they, the they are scrambling right now behind the curtains.
	You know, scrambling.
	He said, raise taxes, right?
	He says he wants you to believe, he wants to raise taxes on all of you, including the two of you.
	Oh, yeah, to mad.
	And then he says he's going to let the Trump tax cuts expire, right?
	And then when he talked about the golf game, the sense of humor is like, yeah, I'm a six-handicat.
	Oh, yeah, yeah, I've seen you swing.
	You're six handicaps.
	Can't take the yards.
	And then, but one of the things that I pulled up here, and I, Rob, I want to send this to you.
	I want you to show this.
	And I know you guys are going to think, what a weird article to pull up.
	Is okay.
	You ready?
	I'm going to send this to you.
	Rob, can you pull up?
	Can you just go up and look up the early signs of dementia?
	You know the saying when they say, you know, when they say, what did you say, Adam?
	You said when you, when age, and then it's a sudden decline, right?
	Yeah, you're fine.
	Everything's okay.
	And then there's just one slip and boom.
	You hear this saying, like, when there's a sudden decline.
	Yeah.
	And you're like, yeah, I don't know about that.
	I mean, you see them baseball players sometimes, all of a sudden, it's like, bam, 307 batting average, 313, 328, 298, 317, 262.
	What the hell happened with a sudden decline?
	So memory problems.
	Look at the second one: confusion.
	He looked confused half the time.
	Getting confused about time and place and losing your weight.
	Difficulty concentrating.
	Changes in behavior or personality.
	Trouble with daily tasks.
	He had a basic task today to go through.
	So a part of it here is we can disagree with Obama on policies.
	We can disagree with Bush on policies.
	You can disagree with Clinton on policies.
	You can disagree with Senior, with Reagan, with Carter, with Trump.
	But let me tell you, there's no way this is a good look for America as a country.
	Correct.
	Correct.
	There's no way, like, you know, for the people in America who love America, who are not necessarily left and right, who are very trusted and people actually listen to what they have to say, those people need to have some conversations with everybody else and say, listen, this is a, if I'm the enemy right now, if my name is Putin, Xi, or, you know, who is it right now?
	Kim Jong-un, whoever it is, even the guy that replaced Raisi, if I'm any of those guys right now, if you've ever had a chance to capitalize off a weak nation, you got 130 days.
	Go at it.
	If you've ever had an opportunity to get what you want now, you know what it's like?
	It's like this.
	This is a Louis Vuitton store.
	Okay.
	You find out the boss and the employees are at lunch for the next hour.
	Nobody's at the shop.
	They're opening it up till 10 o'clock.
	The shop is wide open back door.
	You know the door is open.
	It's 9 o'clock in the morning.
	You have one hour.
	No one's in there.
	Go take everything you can.
	This is a way of telling the enemy: guess what?
	China, Russia, Iran, whoever else that doesn't like the greatest country in the world and they despise it, you got 130 days.
	This is your opportunity.
	Come on, Louis Vuitton, store a bunch of purses out there for you because this guy's not putting fear into anybody.
	What do you say?
	He says, he says, how is it the basic, like the way Trump explains it, a sixth grade, or my son here who's in sixth grade going into seventh, he says, okay, there's an ocean, ocean between us and Europe.
	So you mean to tell me the European countries who are directly affected by what Russia is going to do to Ukraine, they only give $100 billion and we give $200 billion?
	Why don't you tell them to pay more?
	Why don't you at least look at him and say, pay more?
	Anybody can understand what the hell he's saying.
	That is very basic stuff.
	Why don't you say more?
	He says, at least I got you to start spending a little bit more money because the NATO thing that came up.
	How come you didn't do that?
	How come you haven't fired anybody?
	How come you haven't fired a guy that's doing the border?
	You think he's doing a good job?
	What do you think about the guy?
	So this guy's saying, yes, I fire a lot of people.
	That's what I do if you don't do the job.
	How come you haven't fired anybody?
	Why haven't you fired anybody?
	Every one of these arguments, the way he makes it is so simple that the average person can just sit there and say, I don't have to like him, but I get what he's saying.
	Whether you're left or right.
	So my only concern is I hope this 130 days comes as fast as possible to get somebody else in there because even if they bench him, the person behind him scares me even more than he does.
	So neither one of them scare anybody.
	But anyways, there's two sides to me, guys, that I always, and I'm going to wrap this up because it's 11 o'clock.
	There's two sides that I always have.
	One side is the overly optimistic guy.
	We're going to take over the world.
	Oh, we're going to do this.
	Oh, we're going to, the future looks bright, baby.
	Everything is great.
	And this always is 51%.
	It's always a little bit more than this side.
	But this side is only the paranoid survive.
	Most Republicans, including Trump, are going to go home tonight and do what?
	High-fiving.
	Oh, my God.
	We crushed it.
	Pump the brakes.
	Pump the brakes.
	You know, it's like guys that close their first $10,000 commission check.
	They're in the car celebrating.
	And then they don't know right behind them is New York Life or another company coming in to take that commission away from you.
	And you're already high-fiving.
	Nothing is done until they've done their blood work, until they've done EKG, until you've filled out the paperwork, until you've delivered the policy, until you explain what the policy is.
	None of that stuff is done.
	We still have a lot of work to do.
	And for me, double down on security, because you know what today did?
	Here's what tonight did.
	Tonight increased the chances of people believing he's going to win now.
	And tonight look like it's not him winning slightly.
	This could be a 40, 43, 45 state type of situation where it's absolutely embarrassing.
	This is Reagan Carter type of embarrassing moment.
	At least Carter could speak.
	At least Carter was a nice guy.
	At least Carter was an honest man.
	At least Carter was a smart guy.
	He was a terrible president.
	But today, this is so embarrassing that the people on your side politically that are going to vote for you are not even willing to come out to vote for you.
	They're not going to vote for Trump.
	But tonight, people are not even willing to come out because they're embarrassed because they don't believe you're even going to win.
	So if that happens, so future looks bright.
	Only the paranoids survive.
	And my only message to everybody is, let's do both.
	More here than this, but let's stay paranoid.
	130 more days left.
	God is in charge at the end of the day.
	Had a great time with everybody here tonight.
	What is this, Rob?
	This is, oh, you completely throw me off.
	I'm going to announce this on Thursday.
	Okay.
	On July 30th.
	You can go back to on July 30th.
	I'm hosting a webinar in regards to AI, Adapt, Innovate, Dominate.
	It's a webinar about business entrepreneurship and AI.
	We're going to give everybody a free white paper.
	If you want to register for it, that's the QR code.

	God bless everybody.
	Take care.
