| 0:00.0 | A new week and more Maga Mike humiliating himself. |
| 0:03.0 | He goes through this humiliation ritual every morning now. |
| 0:06.5 | Donald Trump puts him up to it. |
| 0:08.0 | He goes and does these horrific press conferences where he makes things worse for the MAGA Republicans as they're on vacation during this disastrous government shutdown. |
| 0:19.0 | So Maga Mike goes on to say that the reality is, |
| 0:23.1 | is that the Republicans don't control government. |
| 0:26.3 | It's the Democrats who control government right now. |
