Donald Trump
This is a real good story about Bronx and his dad, Ryan. Real United Airlines customers.
Political Commentator
We were returning home and one of the flight attendants asked Bronx if he wanted to see the flight deck and meet Kath and Andrew.
Donald Trump
I got to sit in the driver's seat.
Political Commentator
I grew up in an aviation family and seeing Bronx kind of reminded me of myself when I was that age.
Donald Trump
That's Andrew, a real United pilot.
Political Commentator

Donald Trump just had a terrible meltdown of epic proportions during a speech in North Carolina. Let me show you what went down. Donald Trump started doing these hand gestures while discussing chairs. Let's play this clip.
Donald Trump
Politics. I never mention looks anymore. The most beautiful woman can walk right across. I don't even look at her anymore because in politics that's the sign of death. We don't look, but, but I do look at the arm of a chair and I say, I'd say to your artists, they were artists. They were artisans. You know, I'd say, no, no. Can you give a different curve? Can you do a little more carving at the end? They would right in front of me, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing. They were like geniuses.
Political Commentator
Then Donald Trump said how he likes gold thread and not mustard colors. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
Sorry. Apologize. I like that hat. This is nice, actually. Beautiful. Nice thread. Gold thread. I watch that myself I went gold thread, not mustard colored, you know. No, they give you a lot of times they sell you mustard color. Cost them a lot less. We don't accept those hats. When you have a mustard colored thread, don't accept it.
Political Commentator
He then said that they are totally beholden in. He's not making any sense here. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
Because they are totally beholden. I don't love that word. But they're beholden in to they beholden to the insurance companies.
Political Commentator
Next, Donald Trump appears to use the R word either inadvertently or intentionally. Here, play this clip.
Donald Trump
Trump RX but this is the biggest thing ever to happen on drug prices, pharmaceutical prices. It will also tremendously it's going to reduce the cost of health care because health care is.
Political Commentator
Then Donald Trump says do you see the corruption coming out in Mar A Lago? Let's play it.
Donald Trump
Hey, did you see on Mar a Lago? Did you see how corrupt that was? Now it's all come out.
Commercial Narrator
Wow.
Donald Trump
It's all come out. Some life it's all come out. They were totally corrupt, radical left lunatics. Not stupid people by the way. He was. But the people that really ran the country and that really ran the auto pen, they were not stupid.
Political Commentator
He then says he wants to call Hillary Clinton the B word.
Donald Trump
Let's play it 50 or 60 points higher now. Hillary was smart, she was nasty. I wouldn't want to go home to her. She was nasty. Remember, remember she was a nasty person. I was going to use the B word. I said my wife would not be happy. My wife always says, please, please don't use foul language.
Political Commentator
Donald Trump then brags about passing cognitive exams. Let's play it anyway.
Donald Trump
But I've taken now three cognitive tests. I've got, I've aced every single one of them. And, And these are, you know, this is a big stuff. This is Walter Reed. You know, he's got a whole team of doctors all over the place.
Political Commentator
Then Trump talks about there's an obligation to report your health. I mean, what in the world's even going on in North Carolina? Let' this clip.
Donald Trump
But we haven't, you know, I think we have an obligation to, you know, be at least report your health. But I will tell you, to me, because of what happened for four years, I really think having a cognitive test for presidents to take a cognitive test is very important. I think it's very important. I'm hearing that they say it's, you know, not with, with Biden. They said it was not constitutional. That was the least of his problems. But I think it's very important that a president or people running for president and vice president take a cognitive test. I mean, I think it's a very important thing. I don't know. They say, you should do that. It's unjust. It's our Constitution. They say all these things, but I do, I really believe that under Trump.
Political Commentator
Trump then says, he has perfect health. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
They'd say, did something wrong, but I like to do it. But I gave a perfect. I got a perfect health. And they reported his health is perfect. And they interpret that. And the fake news interprets. When the doctor says he's got perfect health, they go, what does he mean by perfect? There's something wrong with the press. These people are sick.
Political Commentator
He goes, there will be a time when he's not 100, but now he is. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
And the fake news interprets. When the doctor says he's got perfect health, they go, what does he mean by perfect? There's something wrong with the press. These people are sick. Now, there will be a time when perhaps I won't be a hundred percent true with all of us, right? And when that time comes, I will let you know about it. In fact, you'll probably find out about it just by watching. But that time is not now, because I feel the same that I felt for 50 years.
Political Commentator
Then he goes and brags about taking cognitive exams. Here. Let's show this clip.
Donald Trump
First day in 28 days. These people are sick. That's why I've taken more physicals, because I think you have an obligation to, you know, report. And I hate when they put out false reports. So they put out a report that Donald Trump. So I took a lot of physicals, and I did something no other president's ever done. I took cognitive tests because I know that. And by the way, not easy. You get to those last questions, those last 10, 15 questions, those nobody on that stand could answer probably any of them. And I got him. I aced him. And no other president's taking a cog. Could you imagine Sleepy Joe taking a cognitive test? I don't think he'd get the. You know, the first question is like, what is this? And they show a lion, a giraffe, a fish, and a hippopotamus, right? And they say, which is the giraffe? So that's the only question. But what happens is it then gets harder. I don't think Joe would have gotten the first question right. He would say, hippo. I want the hippo. But anyway. But I've taken now three cognitive tests I've got. I've aced every single one of them.
Political Commentator

Donald Trump
Let's play it ABC Fake news. I think ABC is the worst. Believe it or not, George Sloppadopoulos he paid me about 16 million. You have George Sloppadopoulos. I heard Chris Christie lost his job. They fired Chris Christie and they have a great young woman taking his place who happens to be Hispanic and happens to be phenomenal. She's going to do a great job. But they fired Chris Christie. I guess you know why? He wanted to eat all the time. No, they fired him. He was bad news.
Political Commentator
He keeps referring to the Affordable Care act as the Obama. Barack Hussein Obama Act. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
Because of. Of health care, the current Unaffordable care Act, commonly known as Barack Hussein Obamacare, was created to make insurance companies rich.
Political Commentator
He then claims that he cut drug prices by 300 or 500%. Let's play the clips.
Donald Trump
Can write a check in two seconds. Take care of it now. Think of it. For $1 more, they said, I can't believe we didn't think of that. Only hours ago, I left a meeting at the White House where we cut the cost of prescription drugs by 300, 400, 500 and even 600%. And I'm doing what no politician of either party has ever done before, standing up to the special interests and demanding lower prices for the American people. This is what we're doing.
Political Commentator
You know, he tells people in North Carolina they would be in the mud if it wasn't for him. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
And we did a hell of a job. Did a hell of a job. You'd still be sitting in the mud if I didn't get elected. You would be. People were sitting in the mud. But I helped rebuild your state. And I didn't get any help from the Democrats. Not your governor, not your man that's running, by the way, for Senate against Michael Whatley, who's phenomenal. Michael Watley is incredible. Your previous governor was a disaster. He's also a radical left person, by the way, his radical left. You don't want him. He doesn't represent you. You just.
Political Commentator
And he goes on this weird rant about Fox. Let's play the clip.
Donald Trump
The morning is excellent. Who? What? What? Which corruption? When? Oh, yeah. Well, we have to. We have to do that. We're going to take care of that. We're going to take care of corruption in our country. I mean, I was talking about Fox. I don't know. He's talking about corruption. No, it's okay because he's on our side, but he's just a little ahead of me. He's talking about corruption. I'm talking about Fox. How good the anchors are. Right. But they are really great. They are very good. But the pollster is no good. You know, he's no good. The pulse is terrible. But we still get good numbers. But the numbers are actually much better than that.
Political Commentator
Then he says something about doom and gloom, but he's economic boom. Play this clip.
Donald Trump
Four years. Four years. The whole term. Less than 1 trillion. In 10 months, I have secured a record breaking $18 trillion more. They gave us doom and gloom and I'm building the Trump economic boom. It's a boom. It's a boom. You know these factories, auto plants, AI plants. We've never had anything like it.
Political Commentator
He goes and attacks Marjorie Taylor Greene. Let's play this clip.
Donald Trump
So she dropped out and then they talk about how brave she is. No, brave would be to stay. And you know, it's one of those things. But she dropped out. I can't believe it that, that people can change so much. But you can't go from being a strong conservative to a stone cold liberal unless you align. You know, you can't do that. I mean, you can stop liking somebody or you can say, I don't know, she's fake. Look, front row Joe. What are you doing in the second row? What happened? What? Well, you're in the front row. That's good. That's front row Joe. I don't know who's been there. The front row Joe's. Are you. It's pretty close, I think. Very different. Hey, very different types. Would you stand up please? In the front. Just stand up. Look at these women.
Political Commentator
Look, he says nothing. This has nothing to do with Trump. It's all about Obamacare. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
It is unaffordable. But it was always no good. But now it's really gone with time. It gets worse. Now it's going to be hit big. Remember, I didn't do this. This is Obamacare. This is Obamacare. This isn't Trump. But you don't need it because let the money not go to the insurance companies. The problem is the Democrats will shut down the government because they are totally beholden. I don't love that word. But they're beholden in two. They beholden to the insurance companies. So I don't know what they can do about it, but you know, they'll probably close down the government. It's so simple.
Political Commentator
He says that he's going to demand insurance companies give him a 50% cut. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
Given his hard time a while ago, but it worked out good. I said, you know what? I'm going to do. I'm going to call these insurance companies fat cats. They are fat cats. I'm going to call the insurance companies and I'm going to set up a meeting with them, all of them. And maybe I'll have the same luck that we had with the health companies, with the pharmaceuticals and the drug companies that we had. So rather than just saying we're not going to deal, maybe they'll give us a deal. I cut the price by 50%, and maybe then it starts to make sense. So I'm going to meet with them. Who knows? Who knows? And I'll either be in Florida. I've gone to Florida. I'll either meet in Florida because I work all the time. So I'll either meet in Florida or I'll meet in Washington the first week after, right after we all come back to going to our wonderful jobs. And I'll sit down with. It's like 12, 13 people. You know, it's basically these big monster companies. 13, 14, if I want to be generous. Get 14 people in a room and let's see what happens. Maybe they'll surprise us, but maybe we'll ask them for a 50% cut and maybe they'll give it. You know, you never know. You saw what happened with the drug companies. They want to give. They're giving free drugs to. I mean, they did. They've been unbelievable. But they do love our country. And I probably think the insurance company guys love our country. They just felt they were dealing with stupid people, so you can't really blame them.
Political Commentator
Then Donald Trump during the speech, talks about someone's undergarments and says, their panties. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
I had these animals trying to attack me at Mar a Lago. They went into my wife's closet. And I'll say this, number one, it's very bad, but it sounds a little strange. They looked at her drawers. You have drawer and then you have drawer. They looked at both. And she's a very meticulous person, you know, like these people. Just like, she'd fit into your group very well. She'd be very happy with her. But everything is perfect. Her undergarments, always nice, sometimes referred to as panties, are folded, perfect wrapped. They're like so perfect. I said, that's beautiful. You know, it's the part of the world she came from. Everything was perfect. No problem. Fold, fold, fold. I think that she steams them. Make sure she said it. We came home. I wasn't there when the raid took place, a raid of a popular president, a former president she opened the drawers, and it was not that way. They were a mess. It was all over the place.
Political Commentator
He then says, After 11 months, prices are down. Let's play this clip.
Donald Trump
So in conclusion Tonight, after just 11 months, our border is secure. Our spirit is restored. Inflation has stopped. Wages are up. Prices are down. Our nation is strong, and America is back. And every single day of this administration, we will keep on working for the hardworking citizens of America. We will fight, fight, fight. We will win, win, win. And with your help, we will make America powerful again. We will make America wealthy again. We will make America healthy again. We will make America strong again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again.
Political Commentator
Then he brags about bringing a lawsuit. Let's play it.
Donald Trump
Let them get away with this.
Political Commentator
We.
Donald Trump
We have all the evidence now. We have all the evidence, and we have to do something about it. We have to do something about it. It's illegal and it's disgusting. You know, I brought a lawsuit, and I'm winning the lawsuit. There's only one problem. I'm the one that has to settle it. In other words, I am suing, and I'm the one that's supposed to settle it. So maybe I'll give myself $1 billion and give it all to charity. Does that make sense? You know, I'll give it to charity. Do you have any nice charities? I have to settle the lawsuit. There's never been a case like this. Trump sued. I sued a long time ago, and it's doing fine. It's a suit. And now, you know, we found all this stuff. Did you see where. The FBI didn't want to do it, but the Justice Department forced them to do it? The FBI guys didn't want to do it, but they. The thugs and the DOJ wanted to do it. So I sued them, and it's. And they do say that, you know, it's never been a case like this. Donald Trump sues the United States of America. Donald Trump becomes president. And now Donald Trump has to settle the suit. I hereby give myself $1 billion. Actually, maybe I shouldn't give it to charity. Maybe I should keep the money. No. A lot of people say, do it. No, I don't want to do it. But whatever happens, it's all going to good charities. Is that okay? It's all going to good charities, but is that a strange position to be in? I've got to make. I've got to make a deal. I negotiate with myself, folks.
