Trump touts the confirmation of Kavanaugh, calls the "Democrat Party" an "angry, ruthless, unhinged mob determined to get power by any means necessary."
Trump: "Democrats produce mobs, Republicans produce jobs. Hashtag. Right? That's called hashtag. That's a new hashtag. That's a hot one."
Trump, complaining of Democrats' willingness to give driver's licenses to unauthorized immigrants, lies that Democrats also want to "give 'em cars." He adds, "What kind of car will they supply them? Will it be a Rolls-Royce?"
Trump asks supporters to raise their right hands and promise to go vote immediately for Republicans. "You know, a big portion of your state does do early voting, which is surprising. Very unusual. But you're a very unusual state."
Trump calls Nevada Democratic Senate candidate Jacky Rosen "Wacky Jacky," as he does. He adds sarcastically, "That's what we need. We need a Wacky Jacky in Congress. Another one."
"We actually had Obamacare totally repealed and replaced, we couldn't get one Democrat vote," Trump says, which is like the Bills saying "we actually had the Super Bowl totally won, we couldn't get one field goal straight enough."
Trump tells his usual lie about how presidents couldn't get the Veterans Choice health program passed for "44 years" until he came along. (He says "44 years" three times.) Obama signed Choice into law in 2014. The law Trump signed modifies the Choice program. "FORTY-FOUR YEARS," Trump continues to lie about Veterans Choice. "So we're pretty good at getting things approved. We're pretty good at getting things approved." He goes on to tell his usual story about how he independently thought of this idea.
Trump calls Rep. Maxine Waters, a black woman, "a low-IQ individual." She's the only Democratic House non-leader he regularly disparages at his red-state rallies.
Trump lies that California residents are "rioting" in protest of sanctuary city immigration laws: "They're rioting now. They want to get out of their sanctuary cities."
Trump lies that Kavanaugh was "top in his class" at Yale and Yale Law. He was not close to the top as an undergrad. Yale Law's system doesn't allow for rankings.
Trump trollishly suggests that Democrats change their name to the Democratic Party. That is their name.
Trump with some vague conspiratorial thoughts on immigration: "Democrats want caravans. They like the caravans. A lot of people say, I wonder who started that caravan."
"We started the wall," Trump lies. He then claims he secured a nonexistent third $1.6 billion in border security funding to go along with the $1.6 billion this year and the $1.6 billion in the bill for next year.
Trump claims that, in California, "illegal immigrants want to take over the control of the board that runs a town. All illegal immigrants. You know, you would think they're kidding." Dem Gov. Brown vetoed a bill to allow illegal immigrants on boards.
Trump: If the media was "on my side, I think I'd be at 100% right now. You know? 100%. I really believe it. They'd have breaking news: President Trump, his approval rating, has just hit one hundred per cent."
Trump says that the "computer age" has allowed human trafficking to flourish. He adds: "Maybe it was better the other way, right. Maybe. But then you wouldn't have @realdonaldtrump. That wouldn't be so good."
Trump on his 2016 campaign: "That was the greatest political movement in the history of our country, maybe anywhere. And they never question me on that."
Trump lies that there were 45,000 people stuck outside of his rally in Springfield, Missouri. Springfield's public information director, Cora Scott, told me there were "1,000 or so that were unable to get in, due to capacity issues."
Trump claims that he just got official numbers on Biden's Las Vegas rally, and only "193" people were there. The Associated Press said it was "several hundred." Trump is polling the crowd on which nickname for Biden is better, "Sleepy Joe" or "1% Joe." He gleefully notes that a woman suggested "Creepy Joe," then adds, as he does, "I would never do that. I would never insult him like that."
Trump claims that he was the only one on the debate stage who vowed to protect Social Security. He was the most vocal Republican primary candidate against changes to Social Security.
Trump reads his lines about how Nevada was settled by tough pioneer men and women. He ad-libs: "Strong and *beautiful* pioneer women. And I'll also add, who are tougher than the men, actually."
He's been running that "tougher than the men" line for a while - since Kavanaugh's confirmation. That's apparently the best he can do to try to seem sympathetic to women.
"America is respected again. I was at the United Nations, and the leaders of the countries were coming up to me, countries that couldn't have cared less, and they're saying, 'I must tell you Mr. President, America is respected again.'" People literally laughed at him at the UN.That was pretty blah by Trump rally standards. Either Trump's getting tired, or Daniel Dale is getting tired of tweeting them.
Trump is doing rallies Monday in Houston, Wednesday in Mosinee, Wisconsin and Friday in Charlotte.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
