[ cheers and applause ] ♪

>> jimmy: very nice. appreciate that. hello, hello, i'm jimmy. welcome to the show. thank you for watching. thank you for joining us on a big night in the country. we ring in a new season of nfl football. are you excited? are you ready for some football? [ cheers and applause ] well, you won't get any here, i'm sorry. [ laughter ] tonight in kansas city, taylor swift took on the baltimore ravens. [ laughter ] there was a lot of speculation about whether she would be at the game. not only was there speculation, her fans have already done the math based on her tour dates. the swifties believe taylor will be able to make 14 regular season games this year. that's when you know you're really famous, when your fans start working out your schedule for you. [ laughter ] a lot of football. we had the thursday game tonight, we have a friday game tomorrow, then of course, multiple games on sunday, the game on monday, monday night football.

and later in the season, we have saturday games. i guess i should just say good-bye to my family now. [ laughter ] i love you. i'll see you guys in march. [ laughter ] we have one of our nation's most famous fantasy football players with us tonight. the second gentleman of the united states, the former mcdonald's employee of the month, vice president harris' husband, doug emhoff is here. [ cheers and applause ] a little bit confusing. we've had a lot of first ladies, but this is new territory. doug is our nation's first second gentleman. and if kamala wins, he'll be our first, first gentleman. do i have that right, guillermo? >> guillermo: yes, jimmy. >> jimmy: thank you very much, guillermo. i want you to know that you are my first second gentleman. >> guillermo: thank you, jimmy, i love you. >> jimmy: you learned this over the summer, huh? [ laughter ] >> guillermo: something new, yeah. >> jimmy: next week is the debate, which will be held here on abc between kamala harris and donald trump. abc news released the agreed-upon rules for tuesday's duel. each candidate will be given a pen, a pad of paper, a bottle of

water, and a knife. and that's it. [ laughter ] they have nothing else. they will not be allowed to consult with their teams. there will be no audience. though afterwards, trump will claim there were 30,000 fans screaming his name. [ laughter ] back in june, joe biden's team, for their debate, wanted the mics to be muted when it was the other person's turn to speak. and trump's team agreed to that. but kamala's team wanted the mics to be open for this one and trump's team was like, "oh, no, you don't!" [ laughter ] "our guy, we're keeping him muted for as long as humanity humanly possible!" [ laughter ] so, they'll be muted. how great would it be if, 30 minutes into the debate, joe biden runs out and hits trump with a folding chair? [ laughter ] "you forgot me!" one of the strangest things about this debate is that it will be the first time trump and kamala harris have ever met in person. for real. they once had a zoom happy hour over the pandemic, but that was it. [ laughter ] and, of course, trump is already playing the victim. during his town hall with sean hannity last night, he said, “abc is the worst

network.” and i just want to say, as someone who has worked at abc for more than two decades -- thank you. i feel like i played a part in making us -- [ laughter ] -- the worst network. i only wish they'd let me moderate this debate. [ laughter ] trump, of course, not only is he running for president, he is running from the law. in washington today, the return of his election interference case. trump's lawyers entered a plea of “not guilty, but even if i am guilty it's not a crime because i do whatever i want." [ laughter ] this case was supposed to go to trial back in march, but the legal system works in mysterious ways when the defendant personally picked three of the judges on the supreme court. [ laughter ] so it was delayed. the judge now has to decide if the prosecution will call witnesses, like mike pence, the former vice president, which would be -- “mr. pence? show us on the doll where the president wanted to hang you?” [ laughter ] tonight was part two of trump's fox news clown hall. [ laughter ] sean gave trump another vigorous hannity job. as only he can. [ laughter ]

last night, maga-roni and cheese delighted a packed house with his thoughts on a variety of subjects, including this delightfully fictional gem about his kgbff. >> i was the toughest on russia. putin would even say, "you know, if you're not the toughest guy, you are -- you're killing us. i'd hate to see if you if you were really tough." [ laughter ] >> jimmy: that is what i do with children. [ laughter ] like, when somebody introduces me to their kid, i'll put my hand out for them to give me five, then i go, "oh, ow, you're strong, do it easier this time." put my hand out again, "oh, my gosh, you're too strong." we do that ten times in a row. that's what putin does to trump. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] and it works! the russians are doing their best to help trump win the election. yesterday, the department of justice announced indictments and sanctions against russians who paid right-wing podcasters to spread misinformation in an effort to sway american voters.

the russians called it “the good old usa project.” that was really their name. the white house called it “meddling,” which seems too soft to me. “meddling” makes it sound like scooby-doo was involved. [ laughter ] and he wasn't. but trump needs help, and he will take that help from any place he can get it. of all the insults he's been hit with -- the little hands, the baby carrot in his pants, the one that is really making him nuts is tim walz calling him and j.d. vance “weird.” [ laughter ] he hates this so much. he can't stop bringing it up. and now when it comes to tim walz, his defense is “i'm not weird. you're weird!” >> there's something weird with that guy. he's a weird guy. j.d. is not weird. he's a solid rock. i happen to be a very solid rock. we're not weird. we're other things, perhaps, but we're not weird. but he is a weird guy. he walks on the stage, there's something wrong with that guy. and he called me weird. and then the fake news media

picks it up. that was the word of the day. weird, weird, weird. they're all going -- but we're not weird guys, we're very solid people. >> jimmy: right, right. [ laughter ] i'm just a regular guy who lives in a gold house and has an orange face. [ laughter ] a solid -- i mean, would a weird guy say something like this? >> for all of those that want to save tiktok in america, vote for trump. the other side's closing it up. but i'm now a big star on tiktok. we even have tiktok jack, and we're setting records. we're not doing anything with tiktok, but the other side's going to close it up. so if you like tiktok, go out and vote for trump. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: it's like he's running for the student council. [ laughter ] and then we have his buddy, d.j. vance, who say what you will about the man's politics, j.d. vance is crushing it when it comes to policy. >> how will we lower the cost of daycare? >> yes, such an important question, charlie.

i think one of the things that we can do is make it easier for family models to choose -- for families to choose whatever model they want, right? one of the ways you might be able to relieve a little bit of pressure on people who are paying so much for daycare is make it so that -- maybe -- like grandma or grandpa wants to help out a little bit more. maybe there's an aunt or uncle who wants to help out a little bit more. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: right. right. make those old codgers get off their bingo-playing asses and earn that social security! [ cheers and applause ] that is quite a suggestion. “but what if my grandmother is dead?” "bring the kids to the cemetery, plenty of weeds to pull!" [ laughter ] great pick, donny dum dum! you did it again. [ laughter ] another thing trump was yelling about at the town hall is this story about tim walz's family endorsing him. endorsing trump. maybe you've seen this photo of these people demonstrating their abuse of the innocent apostrophe. [ laughter ]

turns out, this one is too much even for fox news to swallow. >> democrat vice presidential nominee tim walz in the spotlight now as his family appears to be endorsing trump. this photo of his family members, extended family, wearing shirts that read, "nebraska walzes for trump." it's gone viral. fox news spoke with them, and they say they consider themselves distant relatives of walz, as they've never met or spoken to him. [ laughter ] are they his family or not? >> jimmy: of course they're his family, that's tim's ninth cousin tenth removed. [ laughter ] meanwhile, this is what tim walz has been up to, mingling with supporters at the new hampshire state fair. >> the creamiest milk of all comes from the jersey breed. it's the richest, and farmers get paid more for that extra butterfat in the milk. and let me tell you -- that is creamy and tasty. >> jimmy: hold on a win. i'm being told that is not tim walz. [ laughter ] but it easily could have been, easily. [ laughter ]

oh -- you know this guy. you know the half man, half amphibian, ted cruz? [ laughter ] ted cruz was spotted at the notre dame/texas a&m football game over the weekend. one thing you can count on for sure, wherever ted ghost goes, he leaves the ladies swooning. [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> jimmy: seems she was goofing around, but i don't know, he may have been wearing his wife's sport jacket, right? [ laughter ] sweaty teddy is in a tight race in texas. colin allred, who's a democrat, is breathing down his neck. ted has an ace in the hole. he has an endorsement from america's most celebrated pillow salesman, mike lindell. >> all right, this cow ain't got no milk and i've been tugging on its pecker for 20 minutes. oh, hi there, it's me, mike lindell. i make pillows and defamatory statements about democracy.

right now this country needs patriots, and there ain't nobody more patrioty-otic than ted cruz. ted just don't love america, he lusts after it. that's why he cranked his pea shooter on twitter for freedom. mike, did you have mustard on your shirt? and also, didn't ted cruz try to ban sex toys in texas? yes to both. because ted cruz knows if you let your wife have a vibrator, the next thing she'll want is two dildos, a st. paul strapalong, a taint thinner, a twin city tickler. you've got to put another toilet in the house. that's how democracy works. [ flushing toilet ] folks say ted cruz should be disqualified on account of him not being a human man. just because he don't have a spine.

or because his skin flaps is soggy. or the fact that he lays eggs in his own salty mouth. or how much his mucous sacs is too swollen because his closest genetic relative is a bacteria that putrifies in septic tanks. or because he squirts ink when you corner him. and his genitals are red and covered in scaly pimples. but us patriots overlook all that, 'cause he's fighting for our right to make it illegal for a woman to see a doctor. whoa, a piranha! this is how my dealer chewy used to smuggle in my mexican dexatrine. here. so this november, we're going to stand by ted cruz the way he stood by and let donald trump call his wife a dog-face. >> i'm ted cruz, and i approve this message. >> not again! [ applause ] >> jimmy: thank you, mike. thank you for your patriotism. we have a great show for you tonight. the second gentleman of the united states doug emhoff is

[ laughter ] i asked for it, though. so -- we're good. >> jimmy: people realize, the law is, if you request a cavity

search -- >> they have to give it to you. it's literally in the constitution. mine, anyway. >> jimmy: did you meet the second gentleman? >> absolutely. >> jimmy: you did, oh nice. >> the sweetest man in the world. >> jimmy: had you met him before? >> no. and i was like, "so i'm coming over for dinner, right?" he's like, "absolutely." i found out that vice president kamala harris is a fan of mine, so i was like, well, i can die now. >> jimmy: nice, nice. >> she apparently also wants me to have bigger roles, so if you are watching, hollywood, she has requested it, and you must follow through. so, yeah. >> jimmy: you're a washington, d.c. insider, right? >> kind of. making me sound like an intel, find of. i did live there when i was a kid. my family is still there. the area is called the dmv, so d.c., maryland, and virginia. >> jimmy: oh. >> we're part of "d." sounds terrible. >> jimmy: the dmv? >> that's what they call it. >> jimmy: really? >> i guess it gives the same kind of feeling as waiting in the dmv.

she had to give my name as next of kin. like, in case she breached security. and i was like, "what does that mean? do they come for all of us? if you mess up?" i get on her all the time. "stay on this job, don't leave this job." they have all our names. >> jimmy: they have all the siblings -- >> i'm going to get killed, jimmy.

[ laughter ] underneath that it literally said, family life. and kamala said, yeah, that's not going to work. [ laughter ] we're going to do that together. why don't you go focus on some issues? you're the first man in this role, how about focusing on gender equity? and then of course, when the dobbs decision came out, i really leaned into that. and she said, you're the first jewish person ever to be a white house principal. there was a rise in hate and anti-semitism. that was another thing that she

really pushed me to use the voice on. >> jimmy: did it take you a minute to get comfortable with that, with advocating for serious things? >> definitely. because i was a hollywood lawyer, an entertainment lawyer right here in this community for 30 years. i loved it, every minute of it. it was a little jarring to go from that to get put on the biden-harris ticket and spend all that time getting them elected. then it's like, okay, what do you do now? going into that -- you know, charlottesville, tree of life. there was just a rise in anti-semitism. so i was already feeling that as a jewish person. and so it was a real natural thing to lean into. and we got the first national strategy ever to counter anti-semitism at the white house.

[ laughter ] >> once she gets elected, yeah, we -- it's interesting. as she's preparing for the debate, somebody asked me, "what's it like debating her? you're both trial lawyers. have you ever --" i said, "i've never won one." [ laughter ] so i'm looking forward to this. >> jimmy: do you actually -- do you help with the practice for the debate with trump? >> no. >> jimmy: you're not -- >> imagine, we're married. we're husband and wife. trying to keep up a really

awesome relationship. >> jimmy: yeah, but you're below her on the org chart. [ laughter ] >> focus on family life. so for me, the last thing i'm going to do is give her advice on things she's really awesome at. and if she asks something, you know, once in a while she asks me something. i will let her know what i think, but we really try to keep that separate. because we're really -- want to be there for each other, be there for our family, our kids, and all that stuff because otherwise -- >> jimmy: you probably have to pick up a lot of that slack when it comes to family and the parents and all that stuff. >> she's still really engaged, even now. even when she's stepped up the way she has. hustling the way she has. she will still find time -- i mentioned in the speech, i walked in, she's on the phone with cole or her godnieces, goddaughter, godson. she's still -- it nurtures her, makes her happy. you know, she needs to stay connected. for her to do the work for all of us. it makes her better.

[ laughter ] and the best one is, a now

60-something-year-old man with a team called butt heads after beavis and butthead. funny when he was in his 20s, and now -- we had the draft last year and i said, "i'm going to burn you on national tv and talk about buttheads." that's him.
