NOW: @SteveDoocy opens @realDonaldTrump's latest @FoxandFriends phone interview by asking the thrice-divorced POTUS for advice for his just-married daughter. Trump (wisely) says "don't listen to my advice" on marriage.

. @realDonaldTrump still has not explained what a "clubhouse politician" is.

He's now claiming that NY voters don't know if @CarolynBMaloney won her primary (the race was called for her last night). None of the Fox hosts correct him.

"the post office will never be equipped to handle [vote by mail]," @realDonaldTrump says.

. @realDonaldTrump now lying about @HillaryClinton not accepting election results (she called him to concede that night, which we know in part because @DanScavino posted a video online).

Trump now lying about @JoeBiden trying to duck out of debates and attacking the @debates commission as "left-leaning" and "Clinton-Obama" type commission (the co-chair is a former RNC chair)

. @realDonaldTrump claims Portland protesters would have burned down the post office.

Asked if the federal government will provide assistance to states for polling places (cleaning supplies, etc), @realDonaldTrump falsely states that the administration will do "all those things and more" (he and @senatemajldr oppose any funding to help states conduct the election)

"Joe will drive the [stock] market into a depression," says @realDonaldTrump, under whom the economy has posted the biggest GDP drop since record-keeping began.

. @realDonaldTrump claims he has the "absolute right" to suspend payroll taxes (only Congress has the power to tax)

Trump claims his administration has "set a record" on job numbers (highest unemployment/jobless claims since depression).

He's once again accusing Democrats of wanting to keep schools closed to damage him politically.

. @realDonaldTrump is now claiming credit for creating the Abbott Labs rapid COVID-19 test.

"...most states are coming down, way down...most states are coming down you look at a map and white means good — most of the most of the map is in the white color," @realDonaldTrump says of COVID cases in states.

This is not even close to true.

"This thing is going away. It will go away like things go away and my view is that schools should be open," @realDonaldTrump says, completely delusional.

" I've watched some doctors say they're totally immune [to COVID]," @realDonaldTrump says of children. No doctor has said this.

"Plaaaaaaahhhhhsma"

"The plaaaaaahsma, so valuable, so important to us..." — @realDonaldTrump, discussing the precious bodily fluids on @FoxandFriends

. @realDonaldTrump falsely claims that Russia would not want him to be re-elected.

Trump is now once again suggesting that NATO is a protection racket.

. @realDonaldTrump appears to have settled on delivering his political convention acceptance speech from the White House South Lawn.

. @realDonaldTrump on @BarackObama's John Lewis eulogy: "I thought it was a terrible speech, it was an angry speech that showed this anger there that people don't see he lost control, and he's been really hit very hard by both sides for that speech that speech was ridiculous...

...I think the answer is they both are just in a state, they, you know, it's just one of those things...I thought that speech was totally inappropriate, very bad...I thought his speech the other day at the funeral was a terrible, terrible representation of what our country is...

... all about. I thought it was absolutely terrible."

@realDonaldTrump also claims that he did not run for president because @BarackObama mocked him at the 2013 White House Correspondents Dinner.

. @realDonaldTrump now claiming that Democrats and George Soros are funding antifa because "they have signs that were made in a high class printing shop."

He is also claiming credit for having "re-instituted" the Veterans' Memorial Preservation and Recognition Act of 2003.

"It's nice that [ @JoeBiden's] wife tries to defend him," @realDonaldTrump says.

. @realDonaldTrump repeating his frequent lie that China has paid "billions and billions of dollars" in tariffs, which are taxes collected from American companies and consumers.

"If you buy [TikTok], the United States, which is making it possible to buy...should be properly compensated with a very big payment," @realDonaldTrump says, describing how a mafia protection racket works.

Trump falsely claims that @microsoft and other potential TikTok buyers have agreed to kick a vig back to the @USTreasury

. @kilmeade: "Mr President, China really steamrolled Hong Kong, and we condemned, we sanctioned but we did nothing. What if they move on Taiwan next, what are we prepared to do?"

@realDonaldTrump: [describes sanctions already imposed on China]

Trump on NBA players kneeling: "I think it's disgraceful. We work with them very hard trying to get them open, I was pushing them to get open. And then I see everybody kneeling during the anthem, it's not acceptable to me when I see him kneeling I just turned off the game...

... I have no interest in the game and let me tell you this plenty of other people out there too, and Black Lives Matter, nobody's done better for our black community than me nobody and that is with the possible exception of Abraham Lincoln it's true."

. @realDonaldTrump now repeating false claim that protesters have been chanting about "pigs in a blanket" at recent #BlackLivesMatter protests.

"Our country is respected and other countries, including our allies I say sometimes our so called allies, because they rip us off more than the enemies. But, but these allies are respecting us again," @realDonaldTrump lies.

. @ainsleyearhardt: "Is there something that you can say, to help our country with the race division, with the inequalities?"

@realDonaldTrump: [rambles about Black unemployment numbers pre-COVID]. "Success will bring us together."

And we're done. [end thread]
