00:00The windmills, the windmills and the dead birds continue to appear on this campaign.
00:07Trump says he's not ranting, but this press conference was a great example of a speech
00:13littered with all the things that he's been focused on for a long, long time.
00:18Is he capable, really, of staying completely on message here?
00:23No, of course not.
00:25This was not a press conference, first of all.
00:27This was a campaign rally speech.
00:30He even had his supporters there at Bedminster.
00:33And he fooled the press again, once again, by claiming he was going to have a press conference.
00:38He spoke for 45 minutes before he even allowed a question to be asked.
00:42And when he did, he was just filled with lies.
00:44He made this comment about, what is it, more than 100 percent of new jobs that are created.
00:50I'll play it. I'll play it, just so you don't have to paraphrase what it was.
00:54Listen.
00:56Virtually 100 percent of the net job creation in the last year has gone to migrants.
01:01You know that?
01:02Most of the job creation has gone to migrants.
01:06In fact, I've heard that substantially more than, beyond, actually beyond the number of 100 percent.
01:15Beyond the number of 100 percent.
01:18I guess I need my calculator so I can go shoplifting with Donald Trump.
01:22Because clearly you can't have more than 100 percent of jobs going to migrants.
01:27You can't even have 100 percent of jobs, of new jobs going to migrants.
01:31It's not only mathematically impossible.
01:33It's just plain stupid.
01:35And how does this guy get taken seriously?
01:37How is it that he is a presidential candidate for the highest office in our country
01:42when he can't even complete a press conference without spewing lies and misinformation and obvious falsehoods?
01:50If you want to talk about misinformation, we can talk about Kamala Harris' Google ads.
01:55Like literally taking headlines from mainstream media and rewriting them,
02:00which should be against Google ads policies.
02:03But what's stupid is being, is allowing people, criminals, to go into stores in California
02:09and not being able to arrest them unless it's $900 or $950 and more.
02:14The problem is that that's not actually what's true.
02:17That's not actually what the law is.
02:18And you see videos of people going into stores in these blue cities and blue states,
02:21stealing merchandise and not being stopped.
02:23We've all seen these videos.
02:25So should Donald Trump not be allowed to go into a store because he's a convicted criminal?
02:29Well, I don't think anybody at this table should be surprised
02:31that Donald Trump stood up for 45 minutes, an hour or more,
02:35taking questions, giving a speech,
02:37because if you're holding your breath for an Oscar nod that he did that,
02:40don't hold your breath because everyone, no one's going to believe you.
02:43This is what he does.
02:44He stands. He gives speeches.
02:46He takes the questions.
02:48He gives the answers.
02:49And to date, more than three weeks in, Kamala Harris hasn't given a single interview.
02:54She hasn't come on your program.
02:56She's not answering questions.
02:57She's not giving speeches.
02:59First of all, it's not Kamala.
03:01It's Kamala, and she's not yet the candidate.
03:03She's only been in office, only been a candidate for three and a half weeks.
03:06She's been vice president for three and a half years.
03:08Yeah, and Trump went a whole primary season without even taking and doing a debate.
03:11And how could America?
03:13It's stupid because the Republicans in this country voted for him, nominated him.
03:18She didn't earn a single vote in the Republican.
03:20It's a false equivalence between what Donald Trump is doing as an autocrat,
03:25as a fascist, as a dictatorial.
03:27He is not a fascist.
03:29The man's aspirations are huge.
03:32But the point is that Donald Trump has...
