OMG: Trump utterly HUMILIATES Mike Johnson | Another Day
Trump's minions rush to excuse his. blasphemous behavior, proving once again. that he is their real lord and savior. This is just another day. >> [music]. >> Our Republican-led Congress has only. been back in session for a few short. days, so they've had a lot to catch up. on. Mostly addressing the recent war our. president has engaged in. Listen, I'm not one to criticize. clerics and and. religious leaders. We we defend free. speech and we certainly defend the right. to free exercise of religion and.
you know, a pontiff or any religious. leader can say anything they want, but. obviously if you wade into political. waters, I think you should expect some. political response and I think the the. Pope's received some of that. >> I'm sorry, you think the Pope received. just some of that? >> President Trump lashing out at Pope Leo, of course, the first American Pope. >> Leo should get his act together as Pope, use common sense, stop catering to the. radical left. >> I'm not a fan of Pope Leo. Donald Trump. dragged the Pope so hard you'd think the. pontiff had called for justice for rape.
victims, but the speaker continued his. take on the Pope. >> You know, I was taken a little bit of. back just honestly, frankly by. something that was said. I think he said. it several days back that. something about those who engage in war, you know, that Jesus doesn't hear their. prayers or something. You know, it is it is a very well. settled matter of Christian theology. There's something called the just war. doctrine. There's a time to every. purpose under heaven. >> Mike Johnson is trying to school the. Pope on scripture. What is happening? That's like me giving tips on how to.
cheat on my spouse and settle a sexual. assault accusation to Pete Hegseth. And. this isn't some politician who merely. dabbles in Christianity that we're. talking about. This is a man so devout, so adoringly biblical that he refuses to. even jerk off without alerting his son. first. Not sure what part of the Bible. that's in, but I'm sure it's in there. somewhere. And Mike Johnson isn't the. only Republican man of faith putting his. faith in Donald Trump. >> I've got a question for you. Are you on. the Pope's side or the President's side?
You know you know what? I'm quite. confident both the Pope and the. President can speak speak for. themselves. But I think that it's. important in the same way that it's. important for the Vice President of the. United States to be careful when I talk. about matters of public policy, I think. it's very very important for the Pope to. be careful when he talks about matters. of theology. I I think one of the issues. here is that if you're going to opine on. matters of theology, you've got to be. careful. You've got to make sure it's. anchored in the truth and that's one of. the things that I try to do and it's. certainly something I would expect from.
the clergy whether they're Catholic or. Protestant. >> Damn. JD is trying to with the Pope. like he's one of his leather sofas. Look, I am constantly surprised at how. willing these guys are to debase. themselves on behalf of men who would. never return the favor. But to go. toe-to-toe with the leader of the. Catholic Church because he had the gall. to say the world needs to hear a message. of peace and coexistence. Like, am I. missing something? Did he say it while. flipping the double bird? All we ever hear from Republicans is. that thanks to the actions of dirty.
Democrats and lecherous liberals, the. moral fabric of our nation is being. degraded by attacks on Christianity. >> I want to say something here. The only thing that has truly served as. an anchor of the United States of. America is that we have been and by the. grace of God we always will be a. Christian nation. Over the last 50. years, there has been a singular focus, a war that has been waged on Christians. and Christianity in the United States of.
America. I guess Donald Trump was right. when he said. >> It's a war from within. So sad. But this rush to excuse Donald. Trump's anti-Christian behavior was not. merely related to the President's. attacks on the Pope. They also had to. find some way to justify his doctored. doctor photo. I talked with the. President about it as soon as I saw it. and. told him that I don't think it was being. received in the same way he intended it. He agreed and he pulled it down. That. was the right thing to do. He explained. how he saw that and I don't think he.
thought it was sacrilegious at all. >> Seriously, Mike? Have some balls. You. know, I'm not really sure where those. stairs even lead to, but chances are. that's not the stairway to heaven. You. don't have to defend this president at. every single turn. Even prominent. members of Trump's own base have known. that. >> Now, even members of the Christian right. who typically support the president were. offended calling it {quote}. inappropriate inappropriate and. blasphemous. One of the president's. closest supporters said {quote} God.
shall not be mocked. But it's clear the. president heard the message because he. took that picture down without apology. Hey, when it comes to Trump, deleting a. tweet is akin to him reconciling with. God. But no matter, he heard the cries. of evangelicals asking him to cease with. all the Jesus based post and finally, finally, Trump did something that he's. so rarely done in his past. He's learned. his lesson. And today another image. reposted to President Trump's social. media account showing Jesus embracing.
the president. >> Ah, maybe not. But that's right. All of these. Christians believe Donald Trump's Jesus. posting was dead, but he has risen. The. reality is all of these people who. proclaim to hold their faith so dearly, for some reason are willing to sell. their souls for Trump. They will. repeatedly claim the president was. joking or that he didn't actually mean. what he said or that Donald Trump simply. has a colorful way of expressing. himself, you know, like a toddler with. finger paint. But the question remains, why? Why on earth would these folks.
continually debase themselves when they. all know in their heart of hearts Donald. Trump is only going to embarrass them. more. There will always be another truth. social post to dismiss, another lie to. cover up, another allegation to brush. off, and even the most cynical part of. me could wrap my head around their. efforts being driven by the desire to. hold on to power, but if that's the. case, I think they're betting on the. wrong horse. Look at this. He's at minus. 28 points as net approval rating on. taxes, down 30 points from term number.
one. New CBS News polling finds many. Americans, maybe quite understandably, worried about the Iran war and skeptical. the United States under President Trump. meeting its. stated goals. Nearly two-thirds of. Americans are feeling negative about the. US economy. We've seen a 10-point drop, a 10-point drop in about a month's time. when it comes to how popular this war. is. It has become even less popular and. it wasn't popular to start off with. Not.
popular to start off with? I think. someone is forgetting all of those. Ayatollah Laboobous that were just. flying off the shelves. But yes, poll. after poll after poll is showing that. the GOP is going to suffer in the. midterms thanks to pretty much every. decision Donald Trump has made. It may. have taken longer than many had hoped, but millions of Americans are suddenly. realizing that voting for an uneducated, money-hungry narcissist falls into the. bad idea column. I think they would get. destroyed in the midterms. I I just I.
get the vibe a lot of people I knew who. just voted for Trump because they. thought it was cool. in like high school are just now just. being like, "I can't stand the guy." Uh. hold on. High school kids voted for. Trump because they thought it was cool? I guess peer pressure has really changed. since I graduated. Say goodbye to drugs. and say hello to MAGA hats. If Donald. Trump's advocates really want us to. believe that the president is a man of. faith and that his bashing of the Pope. or his depicting himself as Jesus or his. post showing Jesus hugging him are all. merely small-time sins for a man who.
truly cares about helping people, then. why won't he show us? Right now, people. in this country are hurting. Americans. are struggling to afford gas and. groceries and healthcare. So, where does. this devout Christian leader of ours. decide to focus his efforts when it. comes to all those poor, hungry, sick. people? As you know, this year we. celebrate America's 250th birthday. In. honor of this historic occasion, President Trump and the Department of. Interior will submit plans for the. United States Triumphal Arc, which will.
be an architectural masterpiece to. celebrate our history right here in. Washington D.C. Uh this is a uh. rendering of the arc for you. Thank you, Peter. Um it's quite beautiful as you can see, and this monumental arc will beam at 250. ft tall in honor of 250 years. >> Oh, I get it. The height of the waste of. money matches the year we wasted all. that money. And that's not the only way. this president has decided to celebrate. the number 250. Trump recently bragged.
about a $250 million offer from mega. donor Miriam Adelson to shred the. Constitution and run for a third term. He cut $250 million in Medicaid to. people in Minnesota as political. retribution. And in Donald Trump's first. year in office, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg got $250 billion. richer. Every single one of these people. can preach their religious bonafides. until they're red in the face, but their. lightning-quick defense of this depraved. president and their condemnation of a. peace-seeking Pope has shown how hollow.
those bonafides really are. To them, we. are all merely fools to be duped, rubes. on the receiving end of their. claim that they value their faith over. their politics. >> And I think that the Pope's received. some of that. Yeah, he sure has. >> [music]. >> Before you go, I'm very excited to. announce that I've written a new book. titled The Day After: How to Wield Power. in a Post-Trump World. The book explores. what is, in my opinion, the single most. important theme that we're dealing with. in politics today and moving forward:
power. Specifically, how Republicans. abuse it and how Democrats refuse to. wield it. This book explains how we got. here and, more importantly, how we. should finally wield power if we're. lucky enough to get it back. It is the. blueprint for progressives who want to. do far more than just restore the status. quo. Please pre-order today by following. the link on this screen.
