Speaker 1 Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Donald Trump golfed at Mar-a-Lago with his limpy leg.
Speaker 1 Take a look at what Donald Trump was doing over this weekend as he set the world on fire with his disastrous behavior. Play the clip.
Speaker 1 And we could have had her.
Speaker 1
We could have had Vice President Kamala Harris. Here she is and her husband, the former second gentleman Doug M.
Hoffgoes. Oscar Watch Party Prep.
Speaker 1
Even Marco Rubios. Like, what the F? More on him in a moment because he's a spineless coward.
Donald Trump then at Mar-a-Lago as his poll numbers continued to crash.
Speaker 1
His support among independents is almost in the 30s. I think it's at 41 based on a new poll that CNN just released.
Here, Donald Trump is again dragging his leg at Mar-a-Lago. Let's play it.
Speaker 1 But by the way, everybody, this community note on Twitter, now X, wants you to know that this is how people walk all the time. It's called turning.
Speaker 1
While Trump doesn't lift his leg very high, he is doing a maneuver known as turning. He does this to face the person he is talking to.
Okay,
Speaker 1
you know, I always come with receipts here. It's look, it's okay.
Look, Donald Trump's basically an 80-year-old person. Donald Trump is elderly.
I understand that he paints his face orange
Speaker 1
because he would really look like this if he didn't paste his face orange. Yeah, I had to see that.
So you have to see it too.
Speaker 1 That's what his face would actually look like, at least according to that. that rendering right there.
Speaker 1 But remember when Donald Trump dressed up like a garbage man during the campaign because he called Puerto Rico garbage? And so then he dressed like like a garbage man.
Speaker 1 Maybe that was a sign you shouldn't have voted for the guy when he called Puerto Rico garbage and then dressed like a garbage man. But anyway, take a look at his walk during the campaign.
Speaker 1 Play this clip.
Speaker 1 But yes, folks, as the markets are or have were tanking last month, as I'm sure your 401ks are probably down like mine are, although they were up significantly under former President Biden, as Donald Trump's gearing up to put new, you know, the tariffs on Canada and Mexico, as Donald Trump is
Speaker 1 kissing Putin's ring and attacking our allies, Ukraine and Europe and NATO, as Elon Musk is making posts.
Speaker 1 America needs to get out of NATO, is what Elon Musk is basically reposting, messages like that.
Speaker 1 As there's an emergency meeting that took place over the weekend in Europe called by UK's Prime Minister Kier Starmer, who's done an incredible job as a statesman, bringing all of the European countries, or most of them, other than Hungary, and bringing Canada into the fold, although Turkey showed up as well, and showing solidarity with Ukraine, having President Zelensky there.
Speaker 1
Donald Trump was dancing around at Mar-a-Lago to like the YMCA. That's what Trump was doing over the weekend.
Here, play this clip.
Speaker 1
But, folks, all the right-wing influencers want you to know that what Donald Trump was doing there was an absolute boss move. That's what bosses do, yo.
Absolute boss, man.
Speaker 1 That's what Benny Johnson wants you to know. Benny Johnson wasn't one of these MAGA influencers who were at the White House on Friday who got the fake Epstein minder, but he's of that ilk.
Speaker 1 Like, Donald Trump brought a bunch of like ridiculous, dumb MAGA influencers to the White House, and they were given binders that said, transparency, these are the Epstein files.
Speaker 1
They were like the call log from 2021 that was already released back in 2021 during the Ghylaine Maxwell trial. And they were like dancing with it.
We got the files. We got the files.
Speaker 1 The hell is even going on? You know, those aren't the files, number one.
Speaker 1 They're clearly not going to turn over the files because I'm sure Trump's name is likely on them. It was on all the other, it was on a ton of other documents, depositions, flight logs, call logs.
Speaker 1 Trump said Epstein's a great guy.
Speaker 1
I do the Epstein takes a lot, so you could watch the other videos. I do there, but people are making their voices heard.
National parks belong to us, not Trump and the billionaires.
Speaker 1 Thank you for standing up and defending our parkland, as Christopher Webb says. People protesting in national parks, fired national park workers and others.
Speaker 1 Watch this. Let's play it.
Speaker 1 Also,
Speaker 1 in a stunning display of strength, protesters arrived at Elon Musk's Tesla showroom in New York to protest his and Trump's efforts to dismantle our government. Play this.
Speaker 1 Don't buy swastika cars. Don't buy swastikas.
Speaker 1
Don't buy swastika cars. Don't buy swastika cars.
Don't buy swastika cars. Don't buy swastika cars.
Don't buy swastika.
Speaker 1 Don't buy swastika.
Speaker 1 Don't buy swastika cars. Don't buy swastika.
Speaker 1
Don't buy swastika cars. Don't buy swastika cars.
Don't buy swastika cars. Don't buy Swastika.
Don't buy Swastika.
Speaker 1
By the way, lower Manhattan's not the only city and area where protests against Musk's Tesla. You also saw them in Boston.
Let's play it.
Speaker 1 You also saw it in Tucson, Arizona. Let's play it.
Speaker 1 So, while this is going on, what else is what's what was Trump posting about as he was frolicking on stage with his orange pasty face?
Speaker 1 He was posting this: A U.S.
Speaker 1 crypto reserve will elevate this critical industry after years of corrupt attacks by the Biden administration, which is why my executive order on digital assets directed the presidential working group to move forward on a crypto strategic reserve that includes XRP, SOL, and ADA.
Speaker 1
I will make sure the U.S. is the crypto capital of the world.
We are making America great again. Notice in that, there's no, he didn't even list Bitcoin in the first iteration.
Speaker 1 So he's talking about a lot of these like shit coins. I'm not saying that that crypt, that all crypto is scammy but a lot of it is
Speaker 1 um we've seen that repeatedly but isn't it just so interesting that trump has bit has not bitcoin he has his crypto the the trump coin and the meme coins and all of this and now he wants to use our taxpayer dollars
Speaker 1 which can't be spent on health care like they like you get what's going on here right like They're cutting your Medicaid. They want to go after your social security.
Speaker 1
I've showed you a lot of videos where where Elon called it a Ponzi scheme. I'm not going to play it again.
Go back and watch the video. I'll do more videos on that, but he called it a Ponzi scheme.
Speaker 1
They're cutting essential government services. Like they're firing people who are doing the research to create the next flu vaccines.
They're getting rid of NIH, CDC.
Speaker 1 They're getting rid of FAA people.
Speaker 1 They're getting rid of people who work at national parks. They're getting rid of
Speaker 1 government workers.
Speaker 1
Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of government workers are being fired. Your Medicaid's getting gutted.
Farmers are getting destroyed.
Speaker 1 But they want to use your taxpayer dollars to buy up shit coins.
Speaker 1
As Armin Domalewski says, Trump, we simply can't afford to pay park rangers and cancer researchers. Also, Trump, we must spend billions on shitcoins.
You take a look here.
Speaker 1 in terms of a lot of these coins. And
Speaker 1 as Deva Hazarika goes, wow, what a lucky coincidence that Trump's crypto czar is part of this company Bitwise that has
Speaker 1 a lot of these meme coins or whatever the hell it is. Saks company Kraft Ventures has been investing in a startup called Bitwise since 2017.
Speaker 1 And it goes on to say Bitwise is celebrating because the main crypto coins going into this crypto strategic reserve fund, as Derek Martin points out, just so happen to be bitwise's top five crypto holdings would you whoa oh my gosh so you're telling me the crypto czar is now doing a strategic reserve with the coins that he owns while you
Speaker 1 like again how could you be
Speaker 1 unless you're like an evil billionaire how are you rooting for this like they are screwing you no matter what party you are in the ruralest red area are you yeah they're gonna they're gonna buy up solano bitcoin while they squall while they're getting rid of your freaking jobs and gutting your medicaid and taking away your health care and taking away the programs that help you live like what are we talking about here even this guy jason who's uh
Speaker 1 one of the co-hosts with the with the crypto czar guy he's one of these this is like a pod bro these are like pod bros everyone talking about the pod bros this guy only one conservative conservative Trump supporter has come out and said what an insane grift the crypto strategic fund is, as far as I can see.
Speaker 1
But 99% of them are thinking it, but are too scared to disagree with Trump. Let's pause.
If you're too scared to challenge the president when he makes a mistake, where do you think that will lead us?
Speaker 1 What does that say about you? Any other Trump 2.0 supporters want to stand up against this grift, or is it just me and this guy, JT Lonsdale, who went, taxation is theft.
Speaker 1
It should be kept to a minimum. It's wrong to steal my money for grift on the left.
It's also wrong to tax me for crypto bro schemes.
Speaker 1 Efficient defense courts, national parks should fund themselves, prisons, etc., fine. Cut it out with these schemes, guys.
Speaker 1 What the hell is going on here? What's this guy even talking about? I mean,
Speaker 1 you don't want national parks?
Speaker 1 You don't,
Speaker 1 what are we even talking about here?
Speaker 1 I like this from Justin Wolfers, who makes a great and easy point. It was reposted by Carl Quintanilla.
Speaker 1
So you know how Trump and Musk are saying they found all of, Doge has found all of this fraud, right? They're calling it fraud. Fraud is criminal.
If people are engaged in these crimes,
Speaker 1 who's being arrested for the fraud? Huh.
Speaker 1 Right?
Speaker 1 Show me the Doge arrests. Who's been,
Speaker 1 you're saying all this fraud? Well,
Speaker 1 who's the crime? Zero.
Speaker 1 Number of arrests attributable to Doge uncovering actual fraud within the federal government. Zero.
Speaker 1
Love this as well. J.D.
Vance showed up in Vermont where he got a nice Vermont welcome, the two-finger salute. They called him an effing traitor, and he left his vacation early.
Speaker 1 You know who is not vacationing? The Prime Minister of Canada and the leaders in European democracies.
Speaker 1 British Prime Minister Kier Starmer held an emergency gathering in London to support Zelensky, to support Kyiv, to support Ukraine.
Speaker 1 Take a look at this list of dignitaries, presidents, prime ministers who attended.
Speaker 1 Meanwhile, RT, Russian state-run media, is quoting Dmitry Peskov, who's their chief propagandist. He's like, he's Putin's Caroline Levitt.
Speaker 1 And he said, this is amazing.
Speaker 1
The new U.S. authorities are changing political configurations in the world.
The U.S. is now voting with Russia in the U.N., which was previously unimaginable.
The new U.S.
Speaker 1 foreign policy largely matches Russia.
Speaker 1 Donald Trump, meanwhile, posting photos of Elon Musk in emails that he's sending to his supporters, dancing on stage with Elon Musk while they gut your Medicaid and destroy your lives and destroy our government.
Speaker 1 And I'll just leave you with this.
Speaker 1 I always love these political cartoons.
Speaker 1 You see this one right here?
Speaker 1 Trump,
Speaker 1 the art of the kneel with Putin's boots on Donald Trump's head.
Speaker 1 I think the next image would be Trump licking.
Speaker 1 those boots
