	All right, I'm not going to take up much of your time.
	This will be kind of short.
	But I was just putting on a shirt in my closet, which is not important to the story.
	I'm just letting people come in here.
	So I'm going to tell the story like people are bad at telling stories, because I'm stalling until there are more people in here.
	Well, I was putting on a shirt in my closet, you know...
	You know the people who always start with the part that doesn't matter.
	It was a blue shirt. Couldn't find my good green shirt.
	I was putting on the shirt in the closet.
	All right. As soon as there are 3,000 of you here live, I've got to share with you just about the funniest thing I've ever seen.
	I've been laughing so hard.
	I've been crying in my closet about this.
	Well, we're close enough.
	Apparently, President Trump was on Dan Bongino's podcast.
	It must have been last night.
	And Mark Noller tweets this out.
	And so this is a quote from President Trump when asked about the Joe Biden allegations against him.
	President Trump said, quote, I would just say to Joe Biden, just go out and fight it.
	Says President Trump of sexual assault allegations against the Democrat.
	Interviewed on Dan Bongino's podcast, President said of Biden, in a way, you could say I'm sticking up for him.
	All right.
	If that's not the funniest thing you've ever heard in your whole life.
	Now, let me explain why this is so funny.
	Because if President Trump had said, yeah, Joe Biden is guilty, that would totally open up Trump for the same accusations and you know that would just be automatic, right? So Trump didn't really have a play to talk about it at all.
	Because the more he talked about it, the more people would say, well, what about you?
	What about you, President Trump?
	So, once again, this is like the Rosie O'Donnell play.
	And I swear to God, there should be some kind of Hall of Fame for best political plays or something.
	So remember the Rosie O'Donnell play?
	He was asked a serious question about incidents with women, and he just moved it over to something that's so ridiculous and so funny that you can't take your eyes away from it because it's so ridiculous.
	He just said, no, it's only Rosie O'Donnell.
	It wasn't true. It was just ridiculous.
	So you couldn't even remember what the original question was after a while because it wasn't nearly as interesting as that ridiculous thing he just said.
	And what's similar about it is that you couldn't imagine there was any way Houdini could get out of that question before he used the Rosie O'Donnell escape hatch.
	It just didn't look like it was possible.
	And then you see Joe Biden being credibly accused, and this is the funny part because it's so credible, credibly accused of sexual misconduct.
	And the president, again, he's trapped.
	What are you going to do? You can't not talk about it, right?
	That's another thing.
	And you can't go hard at it, because then they just go hard at you.
	And you can't say he might be innocent, or can you?
	Or can you?
	There's nobody else in the world who would have found that path.
	And it's so, so perfect.
	Now I realize I'm totally into fanboy territory here, but I like to keep the fan stuff to the communications part of what he does.
	You can make your own decisions about policies.
	Half the time I don't even have an opinion on a lot of the policies, because what do I know about trade deals and whatnot.
	But when you see communication, or strategy plus communication in this case, and also humor, That is this well executed?
	This is like once in a lifetime stuff.
	You're seeing the best, maybe the best you'll ever see.
	Alright, so let me just finish why this is so brilliant.
	So by taking the unexpected path...
	Trump does what he always does.
	You can't look away.
	Because he refuses to do what you expect him to do and what normal people would do.
	So he decides to defend Biden.
	How in the world could this...
	So he can honestly say, I'm defending Biden.
	What a great guy I am.
	And he has a perfectly philosophically pure argument.
	It's up to Biden to defend himself.
	It's not up to President Trump.
	We do acknowledge that there are lots of false rumors in this world.
	Russiagate, just to name a few.
	And so the president is embracing Biden in the way that Biden would least want to ever be embraced, which is ironic in and of itself.
	So the president is using as a kill shot...
	Just think about the beauty of this.
	The president is using as a kill shot that his opponent is just like him.
	Do you understand how sublime that is?
	Because there's only one person in the race who can survive being just like Trump.
	And it's not Joe Biden.
	So the more Trump says, yeah, we're like brothers.
	We're practically the same guy.
	I lie. He lies.
	I've got some allegations.
	He's got some allegations.
	You know, when you come to think about it, I've got his back.
	We're practically bros.
	Now, you could...
	This is like somebody getting out of the escape room when there's actually no escape.
	You know, when there actually isn't any way to get out of the escape room and somehow he's out.
	Like, how the hell did he find this path?
	In a million years, if you hired the best consultants in the world, think about this.
	The way you know that this came from him And did not come from an advisor or a paid consultant, is that no paid consultant could come up with this plan.
	Because it's just too good.
	And only Trump could pull it off.
	Because I think he's self-aware that there can only be one Trump.
	It's like Highlander.
	LAUGHTER It's like frickin' Highlander.
	There can only be one, and it's not going to be Biden.
	And this comes on the same day that Biden basically confessed that he was guilty of the allegations.
	So it's even more absurd.
	In my opinion, he confessed because of the way he worded it when he said, you know, why is this coming up?
	This? What's this?
	If it didn't happen, why are you saying this coming up 27 years later?
	So, anyway, that was my opinion that he admitted it, not his opinion.
	But on a day when it couldn't get any worse for Joe Biden, and the wheels are completely off, he has to have a caretaker sitting next to him to do his His live streams from his basement, where I think, I don't know if he's quarantined or they've locked him in there.
	They should have taken his phone away because I don't think anybody knows that he's still talking to the world.
	But on the day that nothing could get worse for Joe Biden, he's being accused of maybe trying to hide the records in Delaware.
	I mean, really, it couldn't be a worse day.
	And what does President Trump do?
	It's like, in a way, I'm kind of defending him.
	Oh, it is so over.
	It is so over.
	My God. Anyway, I don't have any other topic.
	I just had to share with you.
	If you're being honest, even his critics, no matter what they think of him, No matter what they think of his policies and whatever they think his mental processes are, no matter what you think of him, this was brilliant.
	I mean, this was just brilliant.
	It's one for the ages, in my opinion.
	And if anybody's new to watching my periscopes, I've been pretty brutal.
	I'm brutal about the president on some of the task force and coronavirus stuff.
	So it's not like I'm just supporting him wildly, no matter what.
	But communication-wise, every now and then, he pulls something like this out of the hat that you just can't even imagine anybody else would have done.
	Anyway, that's enough of that.
