Hate to give him the floor, but here it is:
On Thursday, at a supposed economic address in Manhattan, Trump was asked, “If you win in November, can you commit to prioritizing legislation to make child care affordable? And if so, what specific piece of legislation will you advance?”
And here is Trump’s entire, unedited answer:
I found myself reading this nonsense in Christopher Walken's voice and that made it much more enjoyable.
I'm recalling William Shattner doing a free verse version of Rocket Man. It was actually very, very good.
Not to leave out Sarah Cooper
Brad DeLong:
Try to parse Donald Trump’s speech today, and he presents as a random text generator with a ten-word memory: “bacon” leads to “products” which leads to “energy” which leads to “wind” which leads to “when [wind] doesn’t blow” which leads to “problem”.

JD "Yes, I am a human. why do you ask?" Vance laments that school shootings are a ‘fact of life’ in the US as he calls for more security
They're not even offering thoughts and prayers anymore. School shootings are just a fact of life now like the changing of the seasons. Fuck Vance.
The story that will not die apparently has reached the "explain it by trends" stage. This Colorado Sun article:
Is racism fueling the furor over a Venezuelan gang “takeover” of apartment buildings in Aurora?
Others might answer "of course."
It's not even debatable. Racism pure and simple.
