Former President Donald Trump seems to have boundless energy that can't be squelched, despite all the attacks against him and even in the face of two assassination attempts.
He was in New York, on Long Island, for a rally and he took the time out to visit with a little boy with a brain disorder and give him a birthday present. He also, prior to the rally, went on Greg Gutfeld's show. It's hard to imagine, after all that has been happening, how he keeps it all together, but he looked in great shape, very relaxed and he had a lot of fun on the show.

It's something that Kamala Harris could never do because it requires you to be spontaneous and yourself. Meanwhile, Trump is naturally open and funny. The audience loved it as Gutfeld introduced him, "Let's crank it up to 11 for President 45 and 47!"
Gutfeld brought up his golf game. The second assassination earlier in the week had been at his Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. “Well, I haven’t been thinking about it too much lately,” Trump responded. “I always said golf is a very dangerous game,” he joked.
Gutfeld asked if he knew the suspect was there would he have tried to take him out with his 3 wood. Trump said he thought so. He then praised the Secret Service agent who spotted the barrel of the suspect's gun and fired at him.
"We’ve been going through a lot of it,” he said of two attempts against him. “We’re getting very good at it. But I don’t want to say that too loudly.” He praised the woman who realized something was wrong and got the license plate of the suspect, saying she was very "smart" and a "heroine."
Gutfeld pointed out how both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had called him to wish him well and that conflicted with their claims he was some kind of existential threat.
When asked about how he processed the attempts, Trump joked he didn't have a choice. He spoke about how it was a "dangerous job." He said so far he'd been "very lucky" or "something is greater than all of us," as he looked up to heaven. "Something is up there, someone is up there, watching over us," Trump thought. "I think he's voting for you," Tyrus joked.
Trump said the Butler attempt made him think more about God because if he hadn't turned at just the right moment in response to talking about an immigration chart, he might not be here today. "Your ratings might be a little lower, perhaps," he joked with Gutfeld.
Trump described the pinging of the bullet as it clipped his ear, then he explained how he showed the wound to Gutfled at the RNC. "Who am I going to show it to?" Trump quipped. "So if I'm going to show it, let's do it with Gutfled!" Tyrus asked how did you get him to see your ear, since Trump is over six feet and Gutfeld is short. "I sat in a low chair," Trump replied.
Gutfeld brought up how the media tries to blame Trump for the attacks on him, without seeing their own role [in constantly demonizing Trump]. Trump spoke about how unfair the media has been including during the debate. He joked that ABC's David Muir's hair "was better five years ago." Then he pointed out how bad the "fact-checks" from the moderators were including on things he was right on like crime versus not checking Kamala Harris on lies she tells over "bloodbath" and "fine people" hoaxes.
Trump joked about how Joe Biden did so badly in the first debate they had to swap him out and wondering if Harris did badly were they going to swap her out too, "Let's have another one!" He said the only thing maybe he regretted was not going back at the moderators.
Trump spoke about what he'd done to secure the border and the slogan, "Make America Great Again" and how Biden attacked MAGA people. Who could attack wanting to make America great? he asked.

But that's Biden and now Harris. He spoke about the problem of Venezuelan gangs in Aurora, and joked they were becoming real estate developers but "their little card is a bullet."
Trump spoke about Kamala trying to flip-flop on her positions to appear more moderate, suddenly she's flipping on her policies as to things like fracking and guns.

That clip ends as he's talking about the brothers of Barack Obama and Tim Walz supporting him. That's when Tyrus brought down the house.

"To be fair, a lot of brothers will be supporting you," Tyrus said.
Trump also told a story about the only time he spoke to Tim Walz. He said that Walz was nervous about protesters who were carrying American flags [peacefully] around the governor's mansion in Minnesota. Funny, he's more disturbed about that than he seemed about BLM and Antifa folks who burned parts of Minneapolis. But Trump helped him anyway.
President Trump says that the only time he has ever spoken to Timothy Walz was when he became scared when a group of protesters with American flags surrounded the Minnesota Governor's mansion and asked President Trump to save him.😂 pic.twitter.com/cWHHVgDbBe

Then there was this hilarious story about how Trump gave RFK Jr's family a ride to Florida — even though he was suing Trump.

Trump also explained the historic nature of the Teamsters refusing to support Kamala Harris when they've supported the Democratic candidate without fail for decades. He pointed out how he got 60 percent — 59.6 percent specifically — to Kamala's 34 percent in their electronic poll of the members.

What makes that even more eye-opening is that may be a big window into how some of those same folks might be voting in the Rust Belt. If the Democrats lose the rank and file of the Teamsters, that's telling you a lot.
But then Tyrus had a great gift for Trump, giving him a championship belt and thanking him, calling him the "People's champion." I think he was pretty touched by it.
