They mock the joyless, scolding tone of the Harris-Cheney rally, discuss John Kelly's fascism comments as sour grapes from a fired employee, and reframe 'threat to democracy' as simply meaning the media dislikes who voters chose.
- Kamala Harris gives the affect of a VP who's called the troublesome kid into her office to scold him for laughing at Trump jokes.
- Warnings that this will be the final election with no more democracy if Trump wins—coming from Goldman Sachs, the Cheney family, Defense contractors.
- Guest rolls his eyes at being called racist for border policy criticism; working-class Latino voters actually oppose open borders more than rural Ohio voters.
- Running against Kamala Harris with Donald Trump, who maintains humor about the prosecutions despite more attacks than any presidential candidate in his lifetime.
- In October with two weeks left, every single day brings articles claiming Trump said something Hitlerian or about Hitler.
- Media puts stock in disgruntled ex-employee John Kelly; people in the room when he allegedly made fascist comments say it's totally made up.
- Dick Cheney—the single worst vice president, who destroyed the country through Iraq and Afghanistan—is now portrayed as a human rights hero because media hates Trump.
- Tim defines threat to democracy: when the American people vote for somebody the media doesn't like, which is actually a fulfillment of democracy, not a threat to it.
