Willie um you know despite the fact that Donald Trump was doing uh very well last night and and here's his side of of of the ring uh a side that's lost seven years in a row and is sure to lose again this year if Democrats work hard and Independence work hard he kept trashing America like that's Donald Trump's message you know Ronald Reagan would talk about how we were a city shining brightly on the hill for all the world to see Donald Trump's message is America sucks it was America America sucks
before he got elected it's America sucks now he talked about American Carnage even after he got elected he lied about an illegal Invasion when Barack Obama and Joe Biden had rates at 50-year lows when he was going in in January of 2017 for illegal border crossings but last night over and over again we're a third world country oh are we really oh I didn't know that third world countries had unemploy unemployment below 4% two years running for the first time since the 1960s inflation down to 3.1%
historically low you look at our GDP compare that to the rest of the world not third world first world we're doing better than all of our friends we're doing better than all of our allies we're doing better than all of our people who consider themselves to be America's enemies our economy is stronger than ever relative to the rest of the world our military is stronger than ever relative to the rest of the world culturally we are stronger than ever relative to the rest of the world and I'm not b
eing flipped when I say look at Taylor Swift in Australia look at the clothes that people are wearing in China look at the Fashions people are wearing across the United States more powerful culturally more powerful economically more powerful militarily uh than ever before and I I don't know I'm an American so I'm kind of proud of that and we fret about a movement that is based on the proposition that the United States of America sucks that is Donald Trump's message that is something to that is D
onald Trump's message and I will say Fox News goes around talking about how America sucks or Newsmax talks about America sucks they're Liars they are liars they will find a trans athlete that competed in a race two years ago run it all day and forget to tell everybody that jobless rates are lower now or that Donald Trump is inded anytime since the 1960s or they won't talk about the surveys they'll say oh oh my God they let somebody read a poem on a ship we're too woke to fight a war and then the
y will ignore one study after another study after another another study that shows let me say it again the United States militarily far from being woke and weak more powerful relative to the rest of the world's militaries than anytime since 1945 that's crazy thing Donald Trump's campaign is based on so many lies that to me the most offensive is that we're a third world country that our economy sucks that our military sucks that our democracy sucks when in fact just the opposite is true we are th
e greatest in the world I'm proud to be an American this is this is the greatest country in the world and yet Donald Trump wins votes what's wrong with you people why do you hate America why do you vote for a guy that says America is terrible that it's a third world country when Willie all the evidence is is is to the contrary this is why they lose every year cuz they run campaigns dedicated to trashing the greatest country on the face of the Earth and that was exactly to your point his speech l
ast night his victory speech which he looked exhausted by the way I don't know what's going on there I I I feel sorry for kind of muttering said so beaten up muttering through a Meandering speech but that was ex you're exactly right he talked about our economy being a disaster which is actually not true at all yes inflation is too high there's no question about that it's ticking down but still too high but Joe just laid out every metric our economy is not in fact a disaster he said we stopped pr
oducing oil after I left office we're producing more oil than we ever have in this country right now could you stop and say that again because I have yahoos come up to me Fox News says Joe bid not letting us real okay they don't talk that way maybe I'm projecting my voice onto these college I mean like you and I said you'll hear this for people with Advanced degrees and you go no actually could you read the financial time fake news could you read The Wall Street Journal today it will tell you Am
erica is drilling more oil today than ever before and when it comes to Natural Gas our biggest problem is we got too much yeah we got a glut Carnage when you hear it he'll he'll lay out all these pure Carnage he'll lay out all these lies in that room to Applause and cheers so it's resonant in some way people who have access to the facts who can easily know the truth and maybe they do know the truth and it's willful cheering on these lies because but when did rooting against the United States bec
ome a punchline I don't know CLA but the truth is he has no rationale for his campaign unless there's a story that America sucks which it does not

I remember back when all these 'patriots' from the right were yelling "Love it or leave it". Wish they'd all move to the countries whose leaders they admire: Russia, N. Korea, China, Turkey, etc.

Arguing with a tRump supporter is like playing chess with a pigeon... No matter how good you are at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, crap on the board, and strut around like it's victorious..

Suze Orman says the ex-president should give up Starbucks so he can pay his judgments.

@michaelholtzman1463

When discussing inflation, START mentioning corporate GREED! Itโ€™s a huge factor and Biden has no control of that!

@user-dh4fw7be2m

Tell me he is sane after this quote last Saturday โ€œTrump - I spoke to Abdul of Taliban and said stop shooting our soldiers & Abdul replied okay your highnessโ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ hilarious - rest of the world thinks he is a joke - & a threat to world peace - much respect from United Kingdom- hope you keep your democracy ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

@francoisleveille409

All peddlers must create a sense of insecurity. As they say "Perfect is the enemy of good". Trump has to make you feel like you're not okay now even though the jobs and the economy are on the rise and crimes rates are falling which is the exact opposite of how it went when he was in charge.

@stevanr9937

Joe Scarborough is really trying hard isn't he. Lol.

@carlosbarahona8609

America Sucks! But Russia is amazing! O.k. Trump go to Russia then! ๐Ÿ˜‚

@topgundoc01

"Proud of America, Proud of US". That would make a good Biden campaign slogan ๐Ÿ™‚

@Muttinchopsforeverandalways

I fully support President Biden for a second term. And I fully support Mr Trump for prison in solitary confinement for the betterment of the other prisoners

@cycle47hall20

How's LA doing Joe, hows Philidelphia, how,s New York doing lately, 3 dollars for gas 4 dollars for diesel, 3 dollars for Nat Gas, cops getting immigrant gang ambushed, all problems we did not have without the 'help' of democrats.

@memesarentdreams4739

Joe hates trump so much he flipped parties ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

@tubularbill

Letโ€™s see Biden debate Trump.

@johnq.public7019

pretty sad day when a guy trashes his country, where he prospered, and yet wants to be president of that country.

@barbarakrokos-zr5do

Trump did that speech like that because Biden is doing state of union. Wants media to remember anything but what beautiful stuff Biden will say.

@bettyannewilkinson8686

Yes I wish Joe would let Mika talk or join in on conversation

@user-jb2oo8ym9f

America, more powerful culturally,please.

@carloscoleman5634

These people sound absolutely insane.

@catherinerobson5482

Its about his huge tax breaks for those with lots of money, greed, the oil and gas folks ae there.

@tolbaszy8067

When people like Trump get this much attention, America loses stature.
