    Trump’s Rose Garden Reality Show | Same Speech, Higher Delusions! #donaldtrump #maga #midterms

    Trump’s Rose Garden Reality Show | Same Speech, Higher Delusions! #donaldtrump #maga #midterms He came to campaign for Republicans. Somehow, it became all about Trump. Donald Trump promised Republicans a Rose Garden pep talk. Andy & Merlin got something else entirely.  On this special episode of WEED THE PEOPLE with Andy & Merlin, we watch and react to Trump's White House Rose Garden speech to Republicans ahead of the midterms—and turn it into a game: Will Trump talk about himself before the candidates he's supposed to be helping? Will he attack Democrats? Blame Biden? Give somebody a ridiculous nickname? Insult a Republican he's supposedly supporting? And just how many times can one man brag about himself in a single speech? Spoiler: Andy & Merlin know their Trump speeches pretty damn well. Along the way, Trump takes some extraordinary detours—including praising Texas AG Ken Paxton while simultaneously criticizing his clothes, appearance and TV interviews; attacking James Talarico; talking about Iran; returning to familiar election and immigration rhetoric; and, yes, finding room for the White House ballroom. By the end, Andy asks the question hanging over the entire episode: What exactly was the message to Republicans running in the midterms? Because after all that… they realize they've essentially heard the same Trump speech before. Same facts. Higher conversations.
