"What do you want, Brunt?"
"I’m here to sign up."

On the campaign trail, 2024
1:09:43: Purse lips, cue violins, read off teleprom .... look right, look left, dang, the teleprompter isn't prompting, keep pursing lips, keep pursing lips, read off teleprompter: and here comes the stream of lies. Banks collapsing, begging Venezuela for oil. We just recently heard that Saudi Arabia and Russia will repedoing - ahh - will be reducing their oil production, so sad. We are a nation that is consumed by the left screen new deal. (The new deals on the right screen are better?)
Woohoo - picking up speed
From powerful light inside the body and disinfectant in the lungs (26:30-27:25) to shark attacks, boats so heavy they can't float, "nobody ever asked this question, and it must be because of my relationship to MIT, very smart", shark biting off a young lady's leg, and electrocution by battery (41:12–44:40). Getting lost while reading "The Snake" (29:51) for the umpteenth time: "'I saved you, cried the woman, and you're so tender and so nice. But you know that if I hadn't taken in, your skin would not look so good and you would've bitten me. But why you bit me? Why did you bite me? Please, please tell me. Why did you bite me? You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die.' 'Shut up, silly woman said the reptile with a grin. You knew damn well, I was a snake before I took you in.' And this is what is happening at our border."
Ted Kennedy was a friend of mine
(39:15–40:05) We have higher poll numbers now than we’ve ever had. Too big to rig. That’s what we want, too big to rig, too big to rig, too big to rig. That's what we want. I have higher numbers than we’ve ever had. We're leading this crooked thief of a president, and I would never have said that before. I didn’t speak glowingly. He’s a lousy president anyway, but I would never have said he’s a corrupt, very dumb person. He’s a low IQ individual, and he always was. This is an age. He's worse now than he was 10 years ago. But if you go back 30 years ago, he was considered the dumbest person in the US Senate. Ted Kennedy told me that himself, who was a friend of mine, which is shocking, shocking that he was a friend. He was of a slightly different persuasion Marjorie."
The show
Neal Gabler: "Trump is clever. Nevertheless, he is old, and his show is growing whiskers. He hasn't been able to reinvent himself. He is like the comedian who keeps telling the same jokes again and again or the rock band that has an old catalogue and no new songs. There may be a certain appeal to this ... but it's the appeal of nostalgia for longtime fans who wear MAGA hats and T-shirts. Among everyone else, the non-true-believers, you can feel his celebrity waning. And as he sits in the courtroom, alternately scowling and nodding off, you can feel that the celebrity aura isn't what it used to be either. He's diminished. He even looks smaller."
