MATT WALSH (HOST): This is the difference between Trump and his opponents. It's maybe the key difference. Of all the many differences, this is maybe the key difference. There's so much incessant discussion about Trump's rhetoric, his insensitive language, his crass comments, etc, etc — which, by the way, and we just heard from Joe Scarborough that Trump says shocking things all the time. When's the last time he even said anything shocking? You know, I mean, even by their — obvious, it's hard to shock me with, but even by the standards of Joe Scarborough. Like, Trump actually has not said anything really all that controversial, or outlandish, or edgy this time around. We know there was plenty of that in 2016, but really this time — I mean, all — this whole controversy over the Puerto Rico joke, Trump didn't say that. So, you know, and that's an interesting thing about the whole story of this campaign is that Trump has been remarkably restrained, in fact.
But regardless, all this conversation about Trump's rhetoric, the truth is that Trump reserves, you know — if he does use harsh language or harsh rhetoric, which he does, he reserves all of that kind of language for the elites, for the powerful people who oppose him, for his political opponents, his enemies in the media. He never expresses any contempt for the American people, even the 50% of the country that hates his guts. You never hear him say anything demeaning about those people, about the voters. When's the last time Trump insulted, you know, Joe Biden's voters or Kamala Harris's voters? He doesn't. He just never does.
