“Morning Joe” shows a crazy supercut of Donald Trump’s rally in Arizona

The Good morning, Joe began Friday with a montage of some of the wildest moments from Donald Trump's first rally since his debate with Kamala Harris.

The compilation used a clip from Tuesday's debate in which the vice president invited viewers to go to one of Trump's rallies, saying such events are “really interesting to watch.” Harris said during the ABC News duel that viewers would hear Trump talk about Hannibal Lecter and see people leaving the event out of boredom, but they would not hear Trump “talk about your needs, your dreams and your desires.”

The Good morning, Joe supercut has interspersed Harris' words with clips from Trump's rally in Tucson, Arizona. The footage shows him dancing to “YMCA,” imitating a weightlifter (a number his wife Melania Trump “hates” because it's “so unpresidential”), and reiterating his baseless claims that Haitians eat cats, dogs and other animals in Springfield, Ohio, which he himself made during the debate.

“They're taking the geese!” the Republican candidate told his supporters at the rally. “They know where the geese are, in the park, in the lake. And they're even running away with their pets. My dog ​​was kidnapped!”

The montage also included Trump grumbling about David Muir, one of the moderators of the ABC News debate, whom Trump now accuses of being biased against him and of being “not serious” as a reporter. “I'm not going to look at him,” Trump said at the rally. “And his hair isn't as good as it used to be, you know?”

“Yes…” Good morning, Joe Co-host Mika Brzezinski said in response to the supercut, “I really want to talk about hair,” before addressing Trump's statement that he does not want to have another debate with Harris.

“I think they could have waited another week or two,” Brzezinski said. “But he must have been so traumatized by the terrible beating that he just didn't want to think about ever having to be on stage with Kamala Harris again.”

“Yeah, I mean, he got objectively thrashed at the debate three nights ago,” Willie Geist replied. “He knows that. His advisers know that. Republicans who support him have generally said that on TV – the Fox News hosts say that. He knows he got thrashed, and so he's putting it this way now: 'The debate was unfair to me, the moderators were too mean, I'm not going to do that again.'”

Trump claimed at his rally that Harris only asked for another child because she had lost her first.

“When a prizefighter loses a fight – you've seen a lot of fights, haven't you? The first words out of that fighter's mouth are, 'I want a rematch!'” Trump said. “That's what she said – I want a rematch. The polls clearly show that I won the debate against my comrade Kamala Harris.”

His analysis was contradicted by several polls conducted after the debate. After Trump posted on his Truth Social account that there will be “NO THIRD DEBATE,” Harris campaign manager David Plouffe publicly referred to Trump as “Chicken Man.”
