Speaker 1: By all accounts, Donald Trump
suffered the worst Labor Day of his political life yesterday. And this was not just, oh, Kamala
Harris is holding a rally with Joe Biden. But I'm not really sure what Trump is up to. This was
not oh, Tim Walz is holding a rally in Wisconsin, but I'm not really sure what JD Vance is up to.
It was noticed even by corporate media that as the Harris Walz ticket was out there meeting with
workers, speaking to workers in critical states, particularly for organized labor. Donald
Trump is just kind of missing. And here's an MSNBC report about exactly this.
Speaker 2: To see Donald Trump or frankly, to not see Donald Trump on the campaign trail.
Seems like a real unforced error or something. You know, if you want to stand with labor,
you show up on Labor Day, right? That's kind of the mission. You contrast that with
what we're seeing from the Harris campaign, which is a very intentional rollout for the first
time together in this new formulation, with Harris at the top of the ticket and Biden no longer on
it, is the president and the vice president as a ticket showing up for a campaign event here.
Speaker 1: So, listen, we are going to get to this a little bit later because some people wrote
to me over the weekend about the Bernie to Trump pipeline and the fraught nature of populist
messaging that often doesn't have progressive policy with it. So we're going to get to it.
But this is something much more superficial. It's Labor Day and Trump events are missing
while Harris walls are in key labor states. I am going to put up on the screen what Donald
Trump put out. Donald Trump put out a truth untruth social for Labor Day, where he said,
Happy Labor Day to all of our American workers who represent the shining example of hard work.
By the way, there's random capital letters all over this thing, shining example of hard work
and ingenuity. Under Comrade Kamala Harris, all Americans are suffering during this holiday
weekend. High gas prices. Transportation costs are up and grocery prices are through the
roof. We can't keep living under this week and failed leadership. That's Trump on Labor
Day. And meanwhile we saw Vice President Harris in Pittsburgh. We're going to look at a
little bit more of that now. We're going to look at Tim Walz. Here is Vice President Kamala Harris
reminding us the race will be tight to the end. But labor knows the way we win this thing.
Speaker 2: So friends, 64 days until the most election of our lives and probably one of
the most important in the life of our nation, truly. Yeah. And we know this is going to be a
tight race to the very end. It's going to be a tight race to the very end. So let's not pay too
much attention to those polls. Yeah, because as unions and labor knows best, we know what it's
like to be the underdog, right? And we are the underdog in this race. And we have some hard work
done ahead of us. But here's the beauty of us in this room. We like our work.
Unidentified: Hard work is good work. Hard work is joyful work.
Speaker 1: So Kamala Harris reminding the audience, no matter what you see in the polls, and
we will look at the polls in a moment, we've got to work to the very end. Tim Walz in Wisconsin,
similarly with the sort of unity message. Speaker 2: We respect differences. That's your
opinion. Look, we're sitting here together. Brewers and twins fans, Vikings and Pac. Book.
We respect it. But on things like health care and what books I read and democracy, we
all live by that very simple golden rule. Mind your own damn business. Mind your own.
Speaker 1: Business. Tim was continuing to be really, really good at connecting with crowds
in this way. And here's a little bit more from Tim Walz in Milwaukee, Wisconsin yesterday.
Speaker 2: This guy has made it clear how he stands. He's sitting down at Mar-A-Lago after
he got elected president. And this was his exact quote. He's talking to a bunch of folks
at Mar-A-Lago. You're rich as hell. And we're going to give you a tax cut. At the same time,
he was telling workers, they get paid too much already. That's who this guy is. You tell me
who in Wisconsin is sitting around saying, damn, I wish they'd get billionaires tax cuts and screw
me over. Damn, I wish they'd take my health care away. I wish they'd underfund my public school.
I wish they would make my job more difficult, more dangerous. And then at the end of the day,
I wish they'd make me work till I'm 75 years old. No one's saying that. No one's asking for that
agenda. What they're asking for is to be treated fairly, with dignity. That's what we have.
Speaker 1: Sir Tim Walz very much on message on Labor Day, as I mentioned, Joe
Biden also speaking, and Biden seemingly also connecting with the crowd.
Speaker 2: Should be a historic pro-union president. Yeah. So, folks, I got one
more job to do together. Let me ask you, are you ready to fight? Are ready to win. Are
ready to elect Kamala Harris, our next president. Speaker 1: A very different image of a guy in
Joe Biden who genuinely likes his vice president, as Harris does, was very different than Trump,
who seems to have growing contempt for J.D. Vance, the guy that he reportedly only selected, contrary
to almost everyone around him preferences, only because Don Jr and Eric Trump told
him, hey, here's the guy that you should pick. So where does this leave us? On this
disastrous Labor Day for Donald Trump? Well, it leaves us with Kamala Harris's biggest national
lead in the polling since this thing started. Now, wait, David, didn't you say last week that her
lead had peaked at 1.5? And didn't you tell us the week before that she had reached a 1.0%
lead? And didn't you tell us the week before that it had shifted from a small Trump lead to a
small Kamala Harris lead? That the answer is yes. We have seen a linear trajectory where Kamala
Harris went from being down a couple of points when she took over for Joe Biden on the ticket to
leading by half a point, to leading by one point, to leading by a point and a half and now leading
by 1.8 on average in the national polling, the largest lead she has had so far, so far.
Now it is still, as they've been saying, 60 plus days until this election. But if we look at
Labor Day and we look at the largest polling lead she's held so far, and we look at Trump missing
on Labor Day, except for a stupid message on Truth Social compared with what Harris walls are
up to. You have to like the position you're in, but you still do have to execute. So let's take a
break. We're going to get caught up on everything from the long weekend. I will address this Bernie
to Trump pipeline thing that I heard from many of you about. Make sure you subscribe to the YouTube
