Donald Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday was full of racism sexism and profanity uh it included
00:00:06
speeches from Melania Trump which was calm by comparison Elon Musk who was wearing a hat that used Nazi font that
00:00:13
was nice and a Trump's childhood friend David Ram who called vice president Harris the Antichrist speakers at the
00:00:20
rally uh also made insulting comments towards Puerto Ricans Jews and Hispanics in his speech including calling Puerto
00:00:27
Rico a pile of garbage which was a comic I get it but it wasn't funny and of course everything was vetted in his
00:00:34
speech Trump said the US is uh quote now an occupied country and again describe Democrats as the enemy from within which
00:00:42
JDM spent a lot of time pretending he didn't say um what do you think about that rally it was I mean I know why he
00:00:49
did it because he loves attention and he wants to dunk on people but that was felt like that 1939 Nazi rally that was
00:00:56
at the Madison Square Garden it was very strange I thought actually the energy i
00:01:01
i to the Republicans credit I thought them turning out that many people and sort of what is arguably the bluest of
00:01:07
blue in Manhattan was a good move I was shocked how much energy there was how many Trump supporters there are in
00:01:15
Manhattan and I realize you can take a train they're not from Manhattan come on well they were in Manhattan um yeah and
00:01:22
but I look I I thought it was generally speaking the turnout was positive I think that and I
00:01:29
might be over estimating it but I think we might have our uh October surprise that helps the Democrats and that is uh
00:01:38
I think his name is Tony Hinchcliffe the comedian yeah yeah well that's a broad term he's one of those people that moved
00:01:44
to Austin to be around Joe Rogan one of those hanger Hors but go ahead well he is a comedian and I generally believe
00:01:50
that comedians deserve a really wide birth and art is what was it Andy bhal said art is getting away with it I like
00:01:58
it when comedians are irreverent even inappropriate in the context of trying to soften the beach and get us to think
00:02:06
and I I I cut them a really wide birth I think Dave Chappelle has said some offensive things but Bill Burr when he
00:02:13
talks about he's a pro-life guy but when he talks about he makes you know if just
00:02:19
because a pie is Half Baked doesn't make it a pie I think these are I think comedians actually play a really
00:02:23
important role Michelle wolf who offended a lot of people okay can I finish yeah thank you well Michelle wolf
00:02:30
makes what a lot of people think is offensive comments I think we cut her a wide birth this guy his joke about
00:02:38
Puerto Rico being a you know a big pile of trash in the ocean it not only didn't
00:02:43
land it was just so incredibly tactically stupid at this point in time because in
00:02:51
Pennsylvania there are 400,000 Puerto Ricans and if just 5 or 10,000 of them get motiv ated not even to switch their
00:03:01
vote but to vote for Harris and actually kind of souls to the Po's feet to the street that could swing the entire
00:03:07
election and I thought what he said was so it just landed so poorly and it was so really offensive there was nothing
00:03:16
funny about it it was just sort of feeding into this Zeitgeist that Trump is just deep down his DNA is racist and
00:03:23
he's not your guy unless you're are you know from northern Europe it it is exactly and I don't know if you saw this
00:03:30
but immediately post the rally every Republican who's running for something dist themselves from the comments well
00:03:37
you know I I'm agreeing with you on look it landed in the room of energetic people who I'm Sor in the
00:03:46
room in any case it wasn't funny I don't mind irreverent Comics if they're funny
00:03:51
this wasn't funny and also it was vetted by the Trump people oh was yes it didn't
00:03:56
just do it off the top it was in a teleprompter they knew what was coming so they knew what he was saying they
00:04:02
could have easily said look Joe or whatever his Tony whatever his unfunny name is um they could have said you know
00:04:09
what dial it back on the it just was he totally wanted to do it so he could get liberals going oh my God you believe
00:04:15
that that that's that that's their favorite juvenile tactic in order to get people mad but it was just pathetic and
00:04:21
especially since that was the and it didn't just end with that it was was like a range of things about Jews about
00:04:29
none of which were funny like I get it I get the idea that Comics should be funny
00:04:34
and you they should be able to say things even David Chappelle and I think he goes on and on about trans people in
00:04:39
a way that's not funny but um ultimately it's initially it's funny and then it's
00:04:44
not um because he overdoes it by by an hour at least but um that's his business if he wants to do that um in this case
00:04:52
the T it's time and place right they did not have to have this guy there and he wasn't funny and he's H and sure he's a
00:05:00
comic but it's a that's a broad term for this fell if I went back and looked at his stuff he's just unfunny he's just
00:05:06
wildly unfunny as a comic not very talented so why pick him but it wasn't just him it was his friend it was
00:05:12
calling Hillary Clinton a or something like that it just went on and chucker Carlson is so strange I don't
00:05:19
even know what to say Elon wearing you know Nazi font on his hat like they were just all trying to like get the libs
00:05:26
going which is their favorite thing and they're tasteless and horrible people I don't know I'm sorry I just you could
00:05:32
attract all kinds of people to I've been in Madison Square Garden with conservative groups when there's sports
00:05:38
events where there's wrestling it's like it it that whole area attracts lots of different people so I'm not surprised he
00:05:44
got people there it's only 19,000 people by the way that fit in um anyway I think
00:05:50
it does turn off undecided voters and it's just typical of what we're going to get if he wins this is going to be a
00:05:56
Non-Stop hate Fest um and let's tell stupid jokes about women's boobs for four years or and black people and what
00:06:04
black people in watermelons are we back to that that joke black people in watermelons it's so funny yeah but just
00:06:11
just tactically speaking as we go into the last eight days it it I'm I'm focused on how she you know what happens
00:06:20
here like who actually wins and the the races the the dog whistles the weirdness
00:06:25
the awkwardness the inappropriate I feel like the market is already absorbed that
00:06:30
I'm speaking very tactically there are 400,000 Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania if 5,000 of them decide to
00:06:38
get off the couch who were going to support Harris but maybe might not have made it to the polls see that and
00:06:44
everyone seeing that clip get motivated to turn out it could literally decide who's President and for just I think
00:06:52
it's our I care I think it's our October surprise I think that I think you're going to hear that guy Tony hinch
00:06:58
Cliff's name a lot more I think that was the October surprise because there's 400,000 Puerto Ricans in
00:07:06
Pennsylvania also Bad Bunny suddenly uh who's one of the most famous bans 45 million followers JLo like and they're
00:07:15
all gonna you you're going to see so much on Tik Tok yeah they um it was interesting Mike Madrid who writes about
00:07:21
Latin uh he wrote a great book on Latin voters Latino voters um said that it's just going crazy it's sort of suddenly
00:07:30
has been like I don't know why people don't get this this guy's a full-on racist Donald Trump is anyway I'm sure
00:07:36
he thought it was funny he said something earlier in the podcast I didn't realize I've just been blissfully
00:07:41
ignorant over the past over this weekend he he had you think that the the font on
00:07:48
his hat was purposely reminiscent of Nazi propaganda it just happened to be I looked at it it's called factor or
00:07:54
something like that it's it's a it's a font it's it's a on his hat uh look like it look like the Nazi font to me anyway
00:08:03
um uh you know I always think of this the thing that really got me I'll tell you was that that they did this Madison
00:08:11
and we'll finish up with this the Madison Square Garden thing just miles from the Statue of Liberty right where
00:08:17
on the Statue of Liberty there's a poem which is called um uh what's it called it's called um The New Colossus right
00:08:25
it's a sonnet by Emma Lazarus right she wrote the poem in 1883 to raise money for construction of it
00:08:32
and the last part keep your ancient lands your storied pomp cry she with Silent Lips give me you're tired you're
00:08:38
poor your huddled mass is yearning to breathe free this is the part I think is important The Wretched refuse of your
00:08:44
teeming Shore send these the homeless Tempest tossed to me I lift my lamp besides the golden door I mean honestly
00:08:51
what is my grandfather came in on that on a ship he was a wretched refug he was nobody and he made a company he he
00:08:59
raised children um you know it's just it's so depressing it's so depressing to watch these people thank
00:09:08
you that's my poetry um we're going to move on H that's why I'm really bothered by this um it's just grotesque I think
00:09:16
and they're so they're so lucky these people who are doing this they're so rich they're so they've got everything
00:09:22
and they still can't be generous it's astonishing and they're so hateful
