Anderson Cooper on Donald Trump: ‘An Obese Turtle on His Back, Flailing in the Hot Sun, Realizing His Time Is Over’
The president’s speech at the White House Thursday, charging that the presidential election was being stolen from him, shocked CNN anchor Anderson Cooper…


On Thursday night, after a series of incendiary tweets over the past 48 hours questioning the validity of the Nov. 3 election results, many of which were flagged by Twitter for their inaccuracy, the president took to the White House shortly after 6:30 p.m. — just in time for the network news programs to carry him live — to declare his own victory in the 2020 presidential election.
No matter that the latest tallies in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada showed Joe Biden closing in on 270 Electoral College votes, with the former vice president having a realistic chance of clinching the presidency by night’s end.
Donald Trump was having none of it. “If you count the legal votes, I easily win,” the president falsely claimed. “If you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us.” Speaking for about 20 minutes in a emotionless monotone, and offering no evidence for his accusations, Trump said “This is a case where they’re trying to steal an election, they’re trying to rig an election, and we can’t let that happen.”
It took the major networks just a few minutes to realize that the president was going off the rails, with all three cutting away from the White House while the speech was still in progress. On NBC, Lester Holt said, “We are watching President Trump speaking live from the White House and we have to interrupt here because the president made a number of false statements including the notion that there has been fraudulent voting. There has been no evidence of that. Allegations by his campaign but his campaign spokespeople unable to provide any evidence. He also has suggested that the polls and many of which were incorrect were somehow the product of election interference.”
On CNN, shortly after the president finished his speech and strode back into the White House without taking any questions, the anchors looked shocked at what they had just witnessed. “What a sad night for the United States of America,” said Jake Tapper, “to hear their president say that, to falsely accuse people of trying to steal the election, to try to attack democracy that way with this feast of falsehoods, lie after lie after lie about the election being stolen. No evidence for what he’s saying, just smears about integrity of vote counting in state after state.” Added Tapper: “We knew the president was not going to lose graciously if he lost. But frankly watching him flail like this is just pathetic.”

A$AP Rocky Turned An Entire Manchester City Kit Into His Album Rollout
A$AP Rocky doesn’t do album rollouts quietly, and this one recruited an entire Premier League club to help. Manchester City, PUMA, and Rocky teamed up on a limited apparel run tied to “Don’t Be Dumb,” his 2026 album, timed around his September 5th show at Co-op Live.
The centerpiece is a long-sleeve PUMA King jersey in black and archive gold, with “DON’T BE DUMB” running down the sleeve and AWGE branding worked in throughout. A bold “MANCHESTER” graphic covers the back. Fans could also add limited “A$AP 11” name-and-number printing onto the club’s actual Home, Away, or Third kits, while supplies lasted at retail.
There’s a players-only version too, and it never went up for sale. That one sticks closer to City’s usual sky-blue identity, with its own sleeve detailing and back graphic — the kind of piece that exists purely because a handful of people got lucky.
The whole rollout kicked off with a one-night pop-up on September 4th, when PUMA turned a spot in Manchester’s Northern Quarter into a pop-up cafe for the night, mixing football, music, and street style into one room before the wider release hit the stadium store the next morning. Some of those jerseys even came with golden tickets to the concert or that Saturday’s match.
Rocky has called the project true to his own design language, and it’s not even his only club collaboration this cycle — a similar drop with AC Milan landed around the same time. At this point, the line between fashion week and matchday has basically disappeared.

Quavo And Lids Are Going All In On Atlanta With Their New Cap Pack
Quavo has never been shy about his hat obsession, and Lids just gave him another outlet for it. Their new “Atlanta” pack drops September 12th, marking another round in a partnership that’s been running strong since 2019.
The collection is a love letter to the city, spread across three very different caps. One mashes up pinstripes, script lettering, and Braves branding into a single design, working navy, red, white, and light blue into the mix. Another goes the opposite direction entirely — fully iced out in crystal detailing, done up in black and red, with both the Falcons and the Braves showing up in the design. The third strips things back to an old-school “ATL” trucker cap in red, white, and gold, the kind of understated piece that lets the city’s name do the talking.
None of this is new territory for Quavo. He’s talked before about waiting on hat releases as a kid, and that same excitement seems to be what’s kept this partnership going years past most celebrity collabs. His earlier Lids run leaned on one moment — the Braves’ 1995 World Series win — but this pack pulls from the city’s whole sports history instead of just one highlight.
Lids has called Quavo one of the rare voices who can blend music, fashion, and sports without it feeling forced, and this drop backs that up. Given how fast his past releases have moved, Atlanta might want to set an alarm for September 12th.
