So Donald Trump had this really bad press conference in the Oval Office today, and I say this with my full chest, what we just watched was a five alarm fire for our country. Not just our democracy, but our country. Clearly, this man is a wannabe dictator, an authoritarian who is going after our fundamental rights. Well, simultaneously being completely lost. He has no idea what's going on in these meetings. He was almost falling asleep again in front of the entire country. This is an emergency for the United States. We cannot have somebody like this in the Oval Office who really shouldn't be president. He should be in a psych ward. So I want to show you some clips from the press conference today. But of course, I want to start with something that really is just an ongoing crisis for our country, which is Donald Trump falling asleep. Why is this just like accepted? Republicans just do not care that the president of the United States falls asleep in all of these meetings. Check this out. Aaron Rupar alert the press. It is not normal for the president to be unable to stay conscious during televised events in the Oval Office. Look at this. This is Trump today.

$64 billion that President Trump said. That's money back into state's budgets to fund other needed priorities. Our state partners have shared with us that they expect this to help them expand access to drugs and preserve access to needed medications. That's something that benefits the most vulnerable members of our society, the mother with a child who needs access to a treatment. The person with a disability who depends on Medicaid. And look at him nodding along. Look, he's just nodding along. He's pretending that he's awake. He's like, yeah, he's out of it. He is out of it. He has no idea what's going on. He is very clearly, very, much struggling to stay awake in this Oval Office meeting. And I think Aaron Rupar is right that this is not normal. And it just drives me nuts that nobody has asked Donald Trump himself to his face on camera like, hey, why are you always falling asleep in these meetings? I mean, look, if he's going to attack the press, you might as well get the questions that we want to know out, right? And then check this out. He started to rant and rave like a lunatic. This is a minute straight of Trump's brain randomly firing

from topic to topic as he just went off on this incoherent rant. Check this out. Very concerning stuff. Even Laura, when I left Iowa just before I started this, I had no choice. I said to my people, I'd have to do an excursion down to Iran, the Islamic Republic of Iran, because they're going to have a nuclear. If we don't hit them with the B2 bombers, they right now would have a nuclear weapon. And if they had it, it would be a matter of days. I equated somewhat to the Democrats. If they ever got into power, they will terminate the filibuster, and they will immediately have DC as a state. They will immediately have many other things take place. But DC and Puerto Rico would become immediately that gives them four more centers, that gives them lots of other things like 12 congressmen. They want to have, ideally, 21 Supreme Court justices. They will have everything they ever dreamed of.

And frankly, Republicans should terminate the filibuster. Because if you don't do it, they're going to do it. And you end up. So to be clear, he started that answer by talking about how he was in Iowa. And then said, Iran is going to have a nuclear weapon and then said Democrats want how many Supreme Court justices, like 13, 12, whatever he said, which by the way, making DC a state, Puerto Rico a state, sounds good to me. So we don't have to pretend about that. I think we should. I mean, DC is literally taxation without representation and idea that we fought against in the Revolutionary War. But nonetheless, that sounds great. But what's not great is the fact that the president of the United States doesn't have a stream of thinking. He can't stay on topic. He's going from thing to thing. And when he speaks on these topics, he's completely incoherent. And it didn't stop there because then he got confused with a question, a reporter asking very clearly, very simply, Polish leaders have expressed concern that Russia may attack Ukrainian allies. And I guess that was too complex of a question

for Donald Trump to understand. Check this out. The president, Polish leaders have expressed concerns that Russia may attack Ukrainian allies. Agree with that assessment. Well, I think they already have attack Ukrainian allies. They've been attacking Ukrainian allies for approximately five years. So I do agree with that. I think everyone agrees with that. On Congress? Yeah. Yeah, that guy. Did you mean Ukrainian or not? I can. So Poland is going to attack. You mean they're concerned that they're going to attack Poland? Yeah, thank you. Well, you have a great president. He was a big Trump fan. What? What is going on with this guy? So he didn't understand. Oh, my god. He is out of it. This guy is cooked. He didn't understand the question. And it was very clear. Poland is, are you crained and Poland? They're concerned that Russia may attack Ukrainian allies. And then Donald Trump says, well, they've been attacking Ukrainian allies for five years. What is going on in this guy's head? The answer is nothing. That's what's going on. Here's a good meme about this.

This person says you mean five dimensional chest, right? That's a funny meme about it. Yeah, Trump is playing five dementia chest. That is absolutely what's going on. His favorite game, five dementia chest. And here's another one where Trump, just once again, is rambling completely off topic. He was asked, you're speaking to the United Nations next week, what's your message? And then he starts talking about his teleprompter operator. And then he says that they turned off the escalator.

I just, I don't know anymore. Can you tell me for you when you agree with him? No, no, please. You're speaking to Ainda next week. What is your message? It's last year you said that the United Nations was like hoping Ainda was back. Well, last year, they wouldn't let my person in the teleprompter room. Remember that? My teleprompter operator was banned from the room. He went out, came back and they wouldn't let him in. So standing there without a teleprompter, is it nice to have a president? And actually, he said it was one of my best speeches. I don't know how that happened. They're introducing ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of the United States, and I'm looking at the teleprompter screen, it was totally blank. And it was for more than half the speech. Somehow they let him in about half the speech. Probably they did that on purpose. But he should have been leaving the room for him. He had to leave the room, come back. But you remember that? They turned off the escalator. Fortunately, my first lady was very strong. And I was able to grab her back or another part of her body.

It was actually a little bit lower than the back. And it kept me standing tall. I was standing very tall. But you remember I was going up in the, and it kept you a dead stop. And this was, I built a lot of escalators. I put it a lot of escalators. You're going to have some beauties right over here. What? There's escalators at the White House. No, there is not. What is he talking about, dude? What's your message to the UN? Very simple question. What's your message to the UN? A question that quite frankly, every president, regardless of your beliefs, should be able to answer. What's your message to the UN? Your message is what your teleprompter guy was banned from a room apparently in the escalator stop when you stood on it, and you grabbed a Melania's behind to keep yourself up? Hi, this is bad stuff. This is really, you know. And then it gets even worse. I mean, if you can even imagine it, I, he starts talking about Mount Rushmore

and putting his face on Mount Rushmore. He urges the governor of the state to put his face on the monument. I just think this was just good, common sense leadership on your part. So thank you, Mr. President, for your leadership on this issue. Well, I'm being very nice to him because maybe he'll get my face on that beautiful wall. That's a beautiful wall that I've been looking at. Come on, Larry. Let's get going. You're going to get going there. You want to go on crazy horse? Thank you. Oh, man. Yeah, that'll lower prices. Well, everybody, don't worry. You can't afford a house. The interest rates are high. Grocery prices are high. Gas prices are high. We're in a war where Americans are dying, being injured. Our bases are being blown up. And our standing around the world has diminished tremendously. But don't worry, everybody. Remain calm because Trump's face is going on Mount Rushmore. That solves it. Deal over. These people and like all these slimy Republicans standing behind them, you have Sarah Bahuckabee standards,

Dr. Oz, RFK Jr. Tate Reeves, the governor of Mississippi, a racist, by the way. All these people stand around him. Ha, ha, ha, it's so funny. Really? I don't think any of this is funny, actually. I think our country and people suffering is very serious. It requires serious people, serious solutions. None of these people are offering any of that. Their only solution is, let's throw his face on Mount Rushmore, huh? My God, I'm so pissed off. You know what I mean? I think we're in the same page. Then Donald Trump claims that his, his, Trump Apollosa, the midterm convention he had in Dallas, had four times the audience of the NFL opener, which is of course not true. And then the final thing I want to show you after this clip is his blatant attacks on the first amendment. I mean, kicking media outlets out of the Oval Office. Media outlets that are reliable, that we talk about on the show often. We use his sources on the show often. We're talking about that in just a moment. But this is Trump once again coping with his minuscule attendance and viewership for his midterm convention. I'm out of the other show up here. You'd be happy to see. The other thing that just came out is that the first ever midterm

R&C, if you look at the convention that we just had, it's just announced we had over 100 million live stream views. Everyone is amazed because the NFL was our opponent on that one. And the NFL had 25 million. So we had for the convention 100 million live stream views, which is a record. All right. Well, look, if he had 100 million live stream viewers for his midterm convention, then I have a trillion, bazillion, gillion subscribers on YouTube. And matter of fact, I'm also president, and I'm King of England. And I'm actually actually, I'm King of the world. Because we're just making stuff up. I'm also getting drafted number one to the NFL. By the way, I don't know if you knew that. We're just making stuff up, right? So we can all do that. It not just him. 100 million people. He thinks 100 million people. Watch that crap. You know, here, let me just quickly give you a fact check here.

This is CNN, media outlet that he's targeting. Trump said the GOP's midterm convention outperformed the NFL, rating show otherwise, of course. There were two big events on television Wednesday night, Donald Trump's speech at the R&C convention. And the NFL's 25, 26 season kickoff game between the Seahawks and the Patriots. The NFL game drew more than 25 million viewers, which is a lot of people. Trump's speech reached around 3 million. So he's just, he's off very slightly. Just very slightly. He's off by 97 million people. Actually, matter of fact, he said over 100 million. So he's off by even more than 97. But give or take 97 million people. He's off by. But you know, it's a close difference, right? It's right there. Look, the final thing I want to show you is Donald Trump's blatant attacks on the first amendment. It just got dropped today by him and his administration. They're bragging about it. Republicans are bragging about it. By the way, these are the same people who said they're free speech warriors. Isn't that right? They love the first amendment. They love speech even if it's speech that they disagree with. And this is what Donald Trump is saying.

I am proud to announce that effective immediately. I am banning fake news CNN MSNOW, who recently changed their name from MSNBC and Politico, the recipient of an illegal and ridiculous $8 million subscription all time record directly from the US government, which also by the way, Trump did that as well. From the White House, as a result of their constant reporting, fake news media outlets shouldn't be able to constantly write or report fiction and lies when they're covering the president of the United States, the Trump administration, or the United States of America. Other fake news media outlets to follow. Thank you for your attention to this matter. So this is so blatantly and so obviously against the first amendment. It's so obvious. And I imagine that these outlets are going to challenge this in court like that. They've already put out statements standing by the reporting, standing by their journalists, which is great to see. These are hardworking folks who are in the White House every single day. But this is so anti-free speech. It makes me want to puke. I won't do that on the video. We don't need that. I don't need that. But it makes me want to puke how anti-free speech this is. And Republicans are somehow defending it. Donald Trump is somehow defending it.

He was asked today, you posted that you intend to ban CNN, Politico, and MSNOW from the White House. Every president takes an oath to uphold the Constitution, which includes the First Amendment. How do you justify this? Trump says because they're fake news. They may or may be others to join them. Now, theoretically speaking, fake news, if MSNOW is reporting something that Donald Trump deems fake or doesn't like, that is protected by the First Amendment, even if he doesn't like it. That's the definition of the First Amendment. It's speech that can't be prosecuted by the government, even if the government doesn't like that speech. And that's exactly what Donald Trump is doing. He was also asked about this in another clip. Freedom of the press is enshrined in the First Amendment. Are you trying to intimidate the press from doing its job? And this is what Trump said in response to that question. I'm going to be there. Is there any of the press enshrined in the First Amendment? Are you trying to intimidate the press from doing the job? No, no, no. I dislike dishonest press. Like you. I think you're terrible. But I dislike dishonest press.

You have to be careful. Wow. This guy is a total piece of crap. I'm stating the obvious here as if we didn't know that already. But just man, like these Republicans can never, ever, ever take a moral high ground or attempt to take a moral high ground ever again. Now that ship has sailed. I mean, that ship is across the Pacific already. But especially now when it comes to free speech, I mean, they tried to claim the Biden administration and the Democrats were censoring people. We were throwing people in jail because of their speech, which was obviously fictional. But also he's literally banning outlets from the White House because he doesn't like their reporting and they're reporting on Iran or they're reporting on the Epstein files. You name it. He doesn't like it. So he just bans them. It's against the First Amendment. And I assume and presume that not only are lawsuits coming and they'll probably be filed like tomorrow or first thing Monday morning, but that they'll be successful in their lawsuit. So look, I will leave the video there. That was madness. But thank you so much for being on the roller coaster with me. I appreciate you being here.
