| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. It's Tim Miller from the Bullwark here with my buddy, Andrew Egger, writer of the Morning Shots newsletter. |
| 0:04.4 | If you need a morning newsletter, it's much better than the Politico newsletter. They just gave Donald Trump an award today. I'd recommend signing up for the morning shots at the Bullock.com. |
| 0:14.1 | Edgar, Donald Trump was at the Mount Airy Casino Resort. If he's going to leave the White House and he's not going to go to one of his golf courses, |
| 0:23.5 | you better bet he's going to be at a casino resort in the Poconos. |
| 0:28.7 | And he was there to talk about the economy ostensibly. |
| 0:35.7 | Susie Wiles, who he has a new nickname for. We'll get to in a second. The chief of staff was out there saying, you know, Donald's got to get out there again. He's got a campaign. We're going to get the rallies back going. He's going to get the campaign Donald. We're going to get the juice back. You watched it. We've got a couple clips, but what were your top takeaway? What's your top |
| 0:57.3 | takeaway from watching? Yeah. So I was interested to know what this was going to be like going in because |
| 1:02.2 | Trump has not been doing these. I mean, like I had almost not noticed that he had stopped. But really for |
| 1:07.1 | kind of the first time since he arrived on the scene, Trump has not been doing rallies this year. He did them all through his 2016 campaign. He did them all through all three of his campaigns and all through his first presidential term, right? Yeah. But, but, and there's been some question like, oh, is Trump kind of like losing the ear of his people? Is he not like, you know, having that ear to the ground like he's like he's had in the past. And there's also been questions like, you know, what will it be like now? He's kind of going |
| 1:31.2 | out there in sort of defensive mode with the milk starting to curdle and the mood starting to |
| 1:36.3 | sour. And what was it all? What was it going to be like? And the answer is exactly like every |
| 1:43.0 | single other fucking one of these he's ever done, right? |
| 1:45.6 | Down to all the same laugh lines and all the same kind of boo lines. |
| 1:49.8 | And it really was just kind of like a, my job was on the floor within like five or ten minutes. |
| 1:54.5 | It's just like, I guess for some of these people, it's maybe their first one or whatever, |
| 1:59.0 | or maybe he's just playing the hits by now. |
| 2:00.5 | But like, aren't you a little bored after a decade of like, ah, look at the fake news back there in the fake news pen, everybody pointing boo? Like, is nobody a little bit sick of that by now? Where's the beef? I guess they're having a good thing. Can't get no respect. Donald can't get no respect. You know, it's the same material. |
| 2:34.6 | That's true. I guess I would say this. A top observation I would have, and I just want to cop to this, you said you're going to watch it. I was like, fine. I'll watch it with you. I turned it on. I did a couple minutes, and I was like, I can't. And then I muted it for a while. Then I turned it back out. So I don't want just the whole thing. |
| 2:37.3 | We should note it's ongoing as we speak yeah it's |
| 2:37.7 | we felt like we had it maybe he'll break some crazy news and we'll have missed it we'll have to do |
| 2:42.5 | it in the post let me tell you black people love Trump I got the biggest vote I got the biggest vote with black people. |
| 2:52.8 | They know a scam better than anybody. |
