her name is jane. jane has decided she will only sit on the potty and go if it is on the trampoline in our backyard. [ laughter ] so needless to say i'm exhausted. anyway. i feel like this might be some kind of carlic payback for the man show on the trampoline. years from now when my daughter is old enough to vote and i will have to explain this election to her, i feel she won't believe it. we are less than 70 days away fr president will be. on september 26th donald trump and hillary clinton will face off in a debate at hofstra university. this is interesting. the clinton campaign is using psychology experts to create a personality profile of trump to figure out what his approach might be. which i don't know, are they preparing for a debate or trying to catch the zodiac killer? [ laughter ] hillary clinton said, i'm not taking anything for granted, i don't know which donald trump will show up. she's right, it could be the donald trump we see on cable news, could be the donald trump we see at these rallies, it could be donald trump jr. technically still a donald hillary's plan is reportedly to try to bait trump into saying something that will get him into trouble. they're said to believe he's most insecure about his intelligence, his net worth, and his image as a successful businessman. which that seems obvious. in fact, i don't think they need to do a personality profile at all. if you want insight into donald trump, he's more than happy to tell you everything you need to know about him. >> donald trump is maybe the best interview there is. putin did call me a genius. thdo the blood pressure of a great great athlete who's 20 years old. i'm really rich. i think i am actually humble, i think i'm much more humble than you would understand. nobody builds walls bigger than me. believe me. i write the biggest ovations. society loves me. i went to an ivy league school. i'm very highly educated. i know words. i have the best words. i'm one of the smartest people in the world. it's true. he referred to my hands, if they're small, something else must be small. i guarantee you there's no problem. i guarantee you. >> jimmy: then release the [ cheers and applause ] >> dave: seems like he might be too shy to be our president. unfortunately not everyone is as passionate about donald trump as donald trump himself is. according to a new poll 54% of republican voters don't believe trump was the best choice to be their party's nominee for president, they wished they'd picked someone else. kind of like when you go to buy a shirt. you look around. you see all these shirts, plain patterns, regular shirts. maybe a shirt with pinstripes. they look okay but not exciting. then tucked in the middle of all these plain shirts you see this totally awesome shirt. it's bold. it's different. it doesn't play by the other shirts' rules. you think about what a killer you'd feel like going out with this shirt on. you buy it, you get home, you go in your closet or wherever. you try the shirt on. and you look at yourself in the mirror. and then your wife walks in and says -- >> jimmy: and then you realize you look like a tool with a big capital "t." [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: but fortunately, the store you bought it from has a great return policy. oh, wait, no it doesn't. this is the shirt you're stuck with for four years. that's how the two-party system works. would anyone like to buy a shirt very cheap? [ cheers and applause ] you. please slip that on because i would love to see that as i do the rest of the show. yeah, thank you, yeah. there you go, all right. meanwhile there's a major arrest in west palm beach, florida, yesterday. the ramifications of which are now being felt all around the world. >> vladimir putin is in the palm beach county jail. it's this man who also apparently shares the same name with the russian leader. putin was arrested august 21st at the public store in city place. the store to yell at customers. putin is charged with trespassing. >> jimmy: maybe that's the putin trump has been talking about all this time. [ laughter ] wow, what are the odds that guy would live in florida with that name, huh? hey, this is something parents and students should be aware of now that it's back to school time. researchers at the university of nevada found that students are more likely to pay attention if their teacher is attractive. this is based on a study conducted by van halen back in 1984. [ laughter ] students will pay more attention to good-looking teachers. unless they're home schooled, then it doesn't really apply. it's interesting and it makes sense. already some private institutions are adapting to attract more prospective students to their schools. >> looking to advance your career with a specialized degree? [ narrated in a sexy female voice ] the whispers institute of technology features the most attractive professors. whatever you're into, there's a class for you. corporate accounting. and much, much more. need an extra hand? our private booths give you one-on-one access to every inch of our professors' knowledge. whispers institute of technology. >> located on route 9 in hoboken across from joann fabrics. i'll be waiting for you.

"dancing with the stars" live on abc. we're still doing this. >> jimmy: yeah, i'm looking forward to the swimmer. [ cheers and applause ] ryan lochte was the big surprise. this is part of his plea agreement, i guess. to me the big shocker is how did it take 23 seasons to get vanilla ice to do the show? [ laughter ] shouldn't that have happened in 2004? vanilla ice has a hands. of course he's going to dance to "ice ice baby." you don't want to do this the first episode, you blow your wad. but if you wait too long, you might get eliminated because you're vanilla ice. but i bet he's going to do well. he can dance. i love this lineup. between the election and "dancing with the stars," the american people are now going to get two chances to not vote for rick perry in one year. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] most people have little to no idea what's really going on in the world. so this afternoon we went on the street, asked people how they thought donald trump did on "dancing with the stars" last night. obviously donald trump wasn't on "dancing with the stars" last night. new season doesn't start until september 12th. did that prevent people from giving their takes on trump's imaginary performance? absolutely not. in tonight's "dancing with the donald edition of lie witness news." trump dancing the cha cha last night on "dancing with the stars"? >> i thought it was really funny. i don't know if he's that great of a dancer. >> what was wrong about it? >> he tried. it's all right. he came out for it. he did a good job, i guess. >> as you know, donald trump made that crazy appearance on "dancing with the stars" last night. >> yeah. >> are your friends on twitter and facebook going crazy over it? >> yeah, there's a twitter beef about it. it's been pretty chaotic. >> what did you think about that moment during "dancing with the >> it was hilarious. you know. it was pretty funny. >> what was going through your mind when you saw that? >> he needs to get a new one. >> what did you think about how emotional scott baio got in the audience when he cried? did your heart go out to him? >> yeah, it did. >> describe that moment when he was crying with the one tear. >> seeing him emotional, that kind of got me. it's like, oh my goodness. he's actually really sad about this. >> how do you think donald trump breaking through the wall at the end speaks to his stance on immigration? >> actually, he wanted to build the wall between canada and the states, right? and i think it's kind of funny that he ended up doing that, i guess. >> mexico. between mexico and the states. >> oh. right. >> right. so what did you think about donald trump dancing with hillary clinton at the emmys? were you surprised by their partnership? >> yeah, i was, very surprised. >> did she seem she was doing it reluctantly? >> yes, very much so. >> when he spun her hard do you think he was trying to make her >> i'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt and say no. but again -- it could be -- most likely it was. >> what did you think of donald trump spinning hillary clinton so violently during their tango when she came on? >> i saw it coming. i could feel the tension of the elections so i wasn't really that surprised, honestly. i felt the energy. i felt it was going to happen. >> dave: what was your reaction to that dip? >> oh my god, i was so surprised to see that, i could not believe that. hopefully she's okay. hopefully it's not, you know -- hopefully she'll heal for the elections. we'll see. i hope for the best, you knoill clinton a speedy recovery from being dropped by donald trump? >> hillary clinton, i hope you recover really quick and i hope bill takes good care of you. yeah, you know. go, women.
