| 0:00.0 | Hi, this is Jen Rubin, and this is Jen Rubin's Green Room. |
| 0:13.8 | If this were President Biden, and he gave a press conference with 162 lies. |
| 0:29.2 | He then posted on social media that his opponent's crowds were a figment of AI. |
| 0:45.7 | And he went on another social platform and began to slur his words, slush around, skip topics, talk as if he were lisping. |
| 0:51.4 | I don't know. It was a little hard to hear. People would cart him away. That's what Donald Trump has been doing. It's gotten worse. Yes, he still leaps from topic to |
| 0:57.8 | topic. Yes, he still makes no sense. Yes, he speaks of himself in grandiose terms, but he's |
| 1:04.7 | discombobulating. He is deteriorating before our eyes, and that's because he's losing. And his worst nightmare, he's losing |
| 1:13.8 | to an African-American, Asian-American woman. That is death for a narcissist and a racist like he is, |
| 1:22.5 | so no wonder he's falling apart. But it's bizarre. You can read the press accounts of the three events that I |

| 1:46.2 | his, albeit bad, debate performance. Each one of these in its own way is worse for Trump than it |
| 1:53.1 | was for Biden. But we have gotten so ignored, or the press has gotten so ignored to Donald Trump, |
| 1:59.3 | and so committed are they to keeping a horse race going |
| 2:03.3 | that the pretense of treating him like a normal sane person |
| 2:07.2 | oblivies everything else. |
| 2:09.8 | And as a result, they are telling a demonstrably false narrative about this race. |
| 2:15.5 | They are still presenting him as the head of a party. They still |
| 2:19.7 | write columns that speak of him advancing ideas, making arguments. No, he rants. He rambles. |
| 2:28.9 | And he sounds increasingly desperate, frustrated. He's going off the deep end. And I would too, because remember, |
| 2:37.9 | if he loses, he not only loses face, loses his entourage, loses the constant attention, |
