Trump, just starting a late speech to the National Religious Broadcasters, sounds quite slurry

now THERE'S a name i haven't heard in a while

you gotta pick one, buddy

Trump: "You heard the J6 hostages. You saw the spirit. The spirit these people have ... they have tremendous spirit."

does Trump ... does he realize that Joe Biden is a devout Catholic?

Trump claims he's leading Nikki Haley by 91 points nationally. I haven't seen every poll but, uh, that seems like a stretch.

"How any Christian can vote for a Democrat is crazy. They've gotta stop." -- Trump

Trump is in his transparently phony "pretending to be Christian" mode tonight

Trump, speaking to a Christian audience, lies about Democrats supporting the murder of born babies

Trump is now confusing the Russia investigation with Hunter Biden's laptop. He's just out here freestyling. The term "I'll have what he's smoking" comes to mind.

i have no idea what Trump is talking about at this point. if a guy sitting next to me at the bar sounded like this i would peace out.

"No one will be touching the cross of Christ under the Trump administration. I swear to you." -- Trump

Trump: "They want you to say what they want you, what they want to have you say. And we're not gonna let that happen. You're going to say as you want & you're going to believe & you're going to believe in God. You're gonna believe in God because God is here & God is watching."

Trump: "I will protect the content that is pro-God. We're going to protect pro-God context and content. To that end, at the request of the NRB, I will do my part to protect am radio in our cars. We like to listen to am radio."

Trump says that Israel is the capital of Israel

Trump has put his audience to sleep. You could hear a mouse farting in this room right now.

Trump's audience in Nashville wakes up as he promises to close the Department of Education (he's speaking to a Christian broadcasters group but just delivering the same speech he always does, only slurrier)

yikes -- Trump shorts out when he tries to say "evangelical"

Trump quickly wraps up his speech without his usual ending. That was really something.

If you appreciate me enduring Trump's bizarre speech tonight in Nashville so you didn't have to, I'd love it if you signed up for my newsletter. I think you'll like it and paid subscribers make my work possible, including these video threads. Thanks. publicnotice.co/subscribe

Biden: "Germany, 1933, Hitler & his Nazi Party rise to power by rekindling one of the world's oldest forms of prejudice & hate- antisemitism. His rule didn't begin with mass murder. It started slowly across economic, political, social, & cultural life. Propaganda demonizing Jews"

Biden: "That hatred was brought to life on October 7, 2023 ... the terrorist group Hamas unleashed the deadliest day against the Jewish people since the Holocaust ... now, here we are, just 7.5 months later, and people are already forgetting that Hamas unleashed this terror."

Biden, speaking at a Holocaust remembrance event, is forcefully denouncing Hamas and antisemitism on college campuses and social media

MARGARET BRENNAN: Did you meet Kim Jong Un?

KRISTI NOEM: As soon as this was brought to my attention, I made some changes and looked at this passage

BRENNAN: So you did not meet with Kim Jong Un?

NOEM: I've met with many world leaders. I'm not going to talk about specifics.

BRENNAN: You never went to North Korea

NOEM: Yes I have. I've been there.

BRENNAN ... you have?

NOEM: There are details in this book that talk about going to the DMZ

Noem tries to portray herself as a victim because Brennan is asking her about egregious lies in her book and also doesn't take responsibility for the errors

"It was largely upbeat" -- VP contender Doug Burgum downplays Trump's remarks comparing the Biden administration to the Gestapo

TAPPER: If Trump becomes a convicted felon, will that affect your support for him?

BURGUM: Well if he becomes a convicted felon in this case, that's just a travesty of justice

TAPPER: It was a little bit more than just checking the wrong box on a form

TAPPER: Does that offend you more than Trump telling a room full of wealthy people that he's gonna cut their taxes? Isn't that buying votes?

BURGUM: I just reject the whole premise of "wealthy donors." The room of people there are all job creators

TAPPER: They're not wealthy?

"These people are destroying our country" -- Trump this morning on the unemployment rate ticking up to 3.9 percent from 3.8 percent (it was 6.3 percent when he left office so, yeah)

Trump complains that he can't go to Ohio tomorrow and Florida on Sunday because of his trial. The only problem is that there is no trial on Saturday or Sunday lol.

Trump: "Read Greg Jarrett. Read Andrew McCarthy. Read Mark Levin, who's been so great. Read all of them. It's incredible. Dershowitz came out w/a very strong article. Jon Turley who's been very powerful just came out w/another article. I don't know these people for the most part"

KAITLAN COLLINS: So you agree that people who break in and vandalize a building should be prosecuted?

JD VANCE: Yes

COLLINS: Ok, I'm just checking, because you helped raise money for people who did so on January 6

JD VANCE: I did not read the president's attorneys as saying the president could order a coup

KAITLAN COLLINS: He said it would depend on the circumstances. What circumstances warrant it?

VANCE: He's just saying that would count as an official act.

KAITLAN COLLINS: You're basically saying that if the president orders a military coup, you believe the only remediation for that is impeachment?

JD VANCE: You're dealing with hypotheticals here
