Multiple Ohio business owners have abruptly canceled campaign events with Vivek Ramaswamy.
This comes after Ohio's Republican governor urged Ramaswamy to take down his attack ad featuring Dr. Amy Acton's estranged mother.
Vivek Ramaswamy's wife: Apparently, Vivek does not support women. Apparently, he is pro-child abuse. Apparently, he doesn't respect doctors.
Trump does his weightlifting bit for the second time in 30 minutes
Trump: While oil prices are temporarily high, our oil and gas industry is making hundreds of billions of dollars. My people said, "please don't mention that, sir."
Trump: My wife, she said there's numerous things she doesn't like about my performance
Trump: He's a very handsome guy. He's so handsome. He's too good looking
Trump discusses his religious prowess: They said, he might not be able to read the Bible as much. Maybe he doesn't know every single passage in the Bible. But he is by far the best leader for saving religion.
Trump, 10 days before the midterms: "I know more about stone than any human being outside of Italy"
Trump brags that the National Guard “beat the shit out of” people taunting them
Trump on soldiers: I don't care about small or large. They happen to be very large people. They are the best looking people you've ever seen.
Trump: Atlanta is a hellhole
Trump: Why do we always have to take people from shithouse countries? Why can't we take people from like, Norway? Sweden? Denmark?
Trump: That guy is handsome right there! They're all handsome to me
Obama on Abdul El-Sayed: "You see those big guns? That's why he wears those t-shirts. I never campaigned in a t-shirt. I ain't got those big guns."
Obama: They will use lies, and maybe your name or your faith to somehow suggest you are dangerous and less American than they are. We have seen this movie before. I starred in it! I've got a long-form birth certificate to prove it. This stuff didn't work on me, it's not going to work on Abdul.
Obama: Folks say, 'Well, Abdul didn't like some of the things you did as president.' We are not gonna agree on every detail of every issue. You know who else didn't agree with everything I did? Michelle Obama. I'd say about 5 times a day she's like, 'You knucklehead! Why you do that?'
Obama: You hear people say this is somehow radical. What is radical about wanting everybody to have healthcare? Wanting everybody to have a place to live that they can afford—how is that radical?
Obama: What about drain the swamp? The only thing they drained was the Reflecting Pool!
Obama: We've got a U.S. ambassador shaking down a donor to pay off her $100,000 credit card bills. A Venezuelan billionaire wanted a pardon, so he paid one of Trump's personal lawyers $50 million. We have never seen a president excel in straight-up grifting like this.
Obama on Trump's vanity construction projects:
"What's up with the gold? He's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory!"
Obama: Hegseth is laser-focused on important matters, like the jawline and testosterone of our troops. And livestreaming executions, because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit.
Audience member: I LOVE YOU!
Obama: I love you back. I'm going to come give you a kiss after we're done. Michelle won't mind.
Obama daps up Abdul El-Sayed as he greets a fired-up crowd in Detroit
Abdul El-Sayed: Look at the guy running HHS. I think we could use a doctor/senator right about now.
Abdul El-Sayed: We put glasses on kids' faces. Made sure they weren't exposed to lead in their schools. Took on corporate polluters to tackle asthma. Put Narcan in vending machines to take on the opioid epidemic. Canceled millions of dollars in medical debt.
Abdul El-Sayed: In 2008, I watched a guy named Barack Hussein Obama run for the presidency. They said he got a funny name. I got a funny name! They said he's tall and skinny and, well... I'm 5'8"
Abdul El-Sayed: You've probably seen a lot of folks trying to get you to question my love of this country. But let me be clear. No one understands the promise of America like someone who understands exactly what America gave me. I love America enough to call on her to be America for all of her kids.
Abdul El-Sayed: In the richest, most powerful country in the history of the world, it shouldn't be this hard to afford groceries. Shouldn't be this hard to fill up your tank. Shouldn't be this hard to see a doctor.
An enthusiastic crowd goes wild for Abdul El-Sayed as he takes the stage in Detroit
