Homes underwater and over 120 dead after Hurricane Helene ravaged North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. So where's Joe Biden and Kamala Harris? The only leader to show up was Donald Trump.

00:00:14

As you know, our country is in the final weeks of a hard-fought national election. But in a time like this, when a crisis hits, when our fellow citizens cry out in need, none of that matters. We're not talking about politics now. We have to all get together and get this solved. We need a lot of help. They have to have a lot of help down here. We look out for one another. We pull together, we pitch in, we persevere, and we pull it through. And that's why today I've come to Valdesta with Large semi-trucks, many of them, filled with relief aid and a tanker truck filled up with gasoline, which they can't get now. And we'll be working to distribute it throughout the day. I just spoke to Elon. I'm getting him. We want to get Starlink hooked up because they have no communication whatsoever. And Elon will always come through. We know that.

00:01:10

These are the things presidents and vice presidents do. What's the White what's the White House doing? Have you reached out to President Biden about federal relief efforts?

00:01:20

No, I haven't reached out to him. I think he's sleeping right now, actually.

00:01:25

Over 100 Americans drowned, and Biden spent the weekend at the beach. I heard came, Mr. President, why weren't she and Vice President Harris here in Washington commanding this this weekend?

00:01:38

I was commanded. I was on the phone for at least two hours yesterday and the day before as well. I commanded to call a telephone with all my security people.

00:01:47

The media was dogging Joe all day about it.

00:01:52

Do you wish that you would get more resources in North Carolina, knowing what you know now?

00:01:56

And do you wish that you spent the weekend here in Washington, rather than in All that. Come on, stop that game.

00:02:02

When you're in Delaware, it's 90 miles from here, okay?

00:02:05

I was on the phone the whole time working on that.

00:02:08

And the resources, the question is not whether we get more... This is a list of every resource we're getting in there, but the question is how to get it in. Donald Trump has accused both of you of ignoring the- He is lying. Let me get this straight. He's lying.

00:02:25

While Biden was at the beach during the deadliest hurricane of the year, Kamala Harris was hosting fundraisers in California. Days later, she posted a staged photo from Air Force Two. The paper she's writing on is blank, and her earphones aren't plugged in. At least Bush looked out of the window, flying over Katrina. Trump went to Georgia before Biden-Harris. Trump went to East Palestine before Biden-Harris. Trump went to the border before Biden-Harris. Trump spoke to Lake and Reilly's family before Biden-Harris, and he spoke to the Afghanistan Gold Star families before Biden-Harris. They say 80% of life is just showing up, and Biden and Harris have their own jets. So what's their excuse? They can get anyone in the world on the phone in 30 seconds, but they won't even pick it up. Trump goes to you. Biden and Harris hide from you. Trump shows you that he loves you. Biden and Harris take you for granted. We all know people like that. Over the weekend, Trump showed up at the The biggest college football game of the season, Georgia, Alabama, and started slinging chicken nuggets. Usa, USA, USA, USA, USA When they put him on the Jumbotron, the stadium erupted.

00:04:29

I stupidly turned the game off in the second quarter because it was 21-0. But Georgia came back in the second half, and it came down to the last play. Clay Travis was there with 45. Watch. Today, we had kids, Alabama, Georgia. We gave them a Kamala hat and a Trump hat like they do when they decide when they're recruits. Everybody we asked was putting on the Trump hat. I think you're going to kill it with young kids, college kids in a way that you haven't before. Do you feel that momentum?

00:05:12

Well, we see it. We're up by like 30 points with the young people. So that's an honor. Look, they see what happens. They're very smart. And look at the way she berated them. She said they're not smart. They're much smarter than her, I'll be honest. But I think we're going to do really well. There has never been energy like there is now. And I guess it's me. But you know what it is? It's also when they look at what's happened to our country, our country is going bad. Our country is a very dangerous place, but we love our country, and we're going to turn it around, and we're going to make America better, greater than ever before.

00:05:47

With the football game and the hurricane, Trump's all over Georgia's radar, while Kamal is in California with donors. Trump hitting the full spectrum of voters. He's at UFC fights, Formula One races, golfing with Bryson, doing podcasts with Theo Vaughn, enthusiastically courting the youth vote, promising the return of the American dream. Have you ever seen young Americans go crazy for Kamala? Well, today, she did her first podcast since Joe got whacked, All the Smoke, two former NBA players from Golden State. Listen.

00:06:23

I am blessed to have an incredible family and incredible friends. My best friend from kindergarten is still one of my best friends. That's crazy. Stacey Johnson. We used to go to the clubs and hurt Father Seville.

00:06:40

Kamala's best friend in kindergarten is still one of her best friends. How's that crazy? What's so funny? Then Kamala was asked about the coup.

00:06:50

Look, from the time that the President called me and told me he wasn't running, I mean, it just like everything was in speedy, speedy motion, and I was not sleeping so well. And that one morning, I had, I don't know, a few hours sleep, and I'd like to sleep. I just got up. I just went out and got a pork roast and started marinating. See, time to work. Get to your happy place. My family happened to meet in town, so they were very happy about the whole situation. But I just got up and started. Everybody's sleep, I just got up and started cooking.

00:07:22

Barack and Nancy staged a coup, and Kamala started marinating pork roast. That's not what she told CNN.

00:07:30

My family was staying with us, including my baby nieces. We had just had pancakes. Auntie, can I have more bacon? Yes, I'll make you more bacon. Then we were sitting down to do a puzzle. And the phone rang, and it was Joe Biden.

00:07:55

This was the biggest phone call of Kamala's life, and she can't remember if she was making pancakes takes her pork roast or whether her whole family was sleeping or eating bacon. It's like everyone's asking Kamala what her alibi was when Joe got smoked, and she's got a different alibi each time. No, politicians can lie about a lot of things, but Don't lie to me about food. Listen to Kamala when she was asked about her plan for the economy.

00:08:22

What is your economic plan moving forward for people who are living paycheck to paycheck and struggling for groceries and rent and homeowners? Look, I grew up... So my sister and I were raised by our mother. We lived for a long time in an apartment on top of a childcare center. That childcare center was actually owned by a woman who lived two doors down from us, Mrs. Shelton, who was, by all of our accounts and feelings, our second mother. She helped raise us. And so she was a small business owner. I, from a child, I knew who our small business owners are. I mean, you're business leaders, but you're also civic leaders. You take seriously your voice in how you can mentor, how you can grow communities in the sense of communities. I love our small businesses. So I've been responsible for billions of dollars more now going into our community banks because they're in the community, and then they know who's in the community and where the talent is and who's doing good in the community, what the community wants.

00:09:30

Why does she say community so many times? Why? And she didn't even answer the question about making rent and groceries more affordable. She sounds like an actress playing a politician who can't memorize her lines. Can you even win the presidency with buzzwords? We're about to find out. Because every interview, she flops. The New York Times says Kamala is an effective debater, but when you throw her one-on-one in interviews, She often winds her way slowly toward an answer, leaning on jargon and rehearsed turns of phrase, using language that is sometimes derided as word salad, but might be better described as a meringue. Translation, it's all puff. But the left's now saying the President's policies aren't important.

00:10:18

We don't elect a President based on policies.

00:10:22

We shouldn't.

00:10:23

We should elect them for the character because we don't know what's going to come up.

00:10:27

The President's policies aren't important. You just vote for anybody with good character. All right, so Mr. Rogers should be President. We don't know what he believes about inflation or immigration, but it's a wonderful day in the neighborhood. Kamala covered up Biden's decline. Dr. Jabb as borders are, lies about Trump all day, and doesn't even show up to help hurricane victims. Besides that, she's a nice lady. Ask all her staff who quit. They'll vouch for her. Americans want results. This isn't a beauty pageant.

00:10:58

The four years he was in office, we were doing good. Absolutely good. Kamala, she's already in office and ain't shit done.

00:11:06

Trump's stealing the youth vote. He's doubling his support with hispanics. And unions now want to make America great again. Look at where Kamala Harris is today. She's only leading by nine points. That would be the worst democratic performance in a generation. A Michigan Congresswoman, a Democrat who's running for Senate, says Kamala is in big trouble there. I'm not feeling my best right now about where we are on Kamala Harris in a place like Michigan right now. We have her underwater in our polling. Donald Trump is the lead now in the real clear politics electoral map and would win the election if it were held today. But Hillary is predicting an October surprise. You liken yourself to Cassandra, the Greek mythological figure who could see the future and the prophecys, but was never believed. What is something you see happening in the near future that we should be taking more seriously?

00:12:01

I anticipate that something will happen in October, as it always does.
