Trump is NOT TAKING THIS WELL…

Donald Trump is spiraling this morning. off the news that only 13% of Americans. strongly approve of his regime. Also, there was a new PCE inflation readout. It came in hotter or far worse than. expected. Donald Trump has caused the. United States economy to be in absolute. shambles right now. People are pissed. So, what does Donald Trump do? He goes. on a right-wing podcast and he says, "I.

don't even know what the word. affordability means." Here, let's play. this clip. >> And then from the first day they started. using the word affordability. They. looked at me affordability. It was a new. word. Nobody ever heard the word. It was. a new word that they devised because. they're quite good at that. They're not. good at running a country, but they're. good at I guess good at politics. I. don't know. They they have some awfully. bad policy for people. Then Donald Trump. starts attacking Canada and he says, "They don't have anything that we need.

or we want and we need to teach Canada a. lesson." He continues his attacks on. Canada, our closest ally, because he's. literally demonic and an idiot and he. will only cause further inflation in the. United States. Play this clip. >> Won't do anybody. In other words, we. won't trade. They don't have anything. that we have to have. Okay? we can get. by. I mean, there are a couple of things. that would make it a little. inconvenient, but we could get them.

elsewhere. Uh, and it's time to teach. Canada you can't do this anymore. We. lose $60 billion and and really more. than that. 60 billion a year with Canada. >> has noted inflation surging. US July PCE. inflation has come in hotter than. expected. That's the Fed's preferred. inflation metric. It hit 3.7% above. expectations of 3.6%. Core PCE inflation was 3.3%.

The second highest reading since October. 2024. But as Heather Long, economist. says, the biggest story in the PCE data. from this morning is the consumer. consumer fatigue is starting to show up. In July, personal consumption was only. 2%. Once you adjust for inflation, personal consumption was flat. You can. see consumers straining to pay the. basics, especially health care and. utilities. Meanwhile, they are cutting.

back everywhere they can, especially. anything home or car related. There was. a modest rise in personal income, but. we'll have to see if it's sustained is. what she says over there. So then what. Donald Trump does next, he starts to say. that uh you know Dolly Parton who you. know tragically passed away yesterday, she really liked me. She loved me. She. wouldn't say it out loud but she. absolutely loved me. I mean she didn't. but this is how he frames the story of. Dolly Parton's legacy around him. He is.

a real sicko here. Play this clip. >> She really liked me, I will tell you. But she also wanted to stay very, you. know, she she was of the opinion, you. know, the 50% who needs to lose. I don't. think it's 50. I think it's probably 20%. of the fans, okay? Not 50, but she was a. great person and she was just a nice. person, you know. I I liked her a lot. and I I thought it was a natural thing. to lower the flags. >> Then he continues to attack Canada even.

more and says, "We're taking them on. We're taking them on hard. We're going. to crush them. What are you doing? There's no American who wants this. Like, y'all are really just a bunch of. lunatics. And Canada is united. Prime. Minister Carney is very popular among. the people. There are 75% and rightfully. so because he's fighting back against. your despicable regime and all you're. doing is hurting the American people. Here, play this clip. >> Was terrible. >> Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. >> But they have taken advantage of the.

United States for many decades. actually. they charge tariffs that are. unbelievable like on milk 400%. and on and I just said we're taking them. on and I took them on at the beginning. but we had so many other things to do. because the country was a mess but I. said we're going to take them on we're. going to stop it and you saw the lake. Ontario you know people thought I was. kidding maybe I wasn't because the last.

one you saw was the Gulf of Mexico is. Gulf of America. >> I know. I know. I know. >> But now we have a Gulf and we have a. lake. Okay. You know, it's very simple. But but look, I don't want to go into. great detail because it's maybe boring. to people, but to me it's not boring. Uh. they charge tariffs. They take advantage. of us uh as though they were a state and. they're not a state. And they've taken. our car industry and they've taken our. agriculture industry. You know, the. farmers can't sell anything in there. because the tariffs are so enormous. And.

yet they want to sell in us without. >> Now state regime media Fox had to report. on the latest awful inflation numbers. that just came in this morning. Listen. to what they said. >> and we can kind of talk about this and I. want to get your thoughts on what we're. seeing here. And uh the market actually. pulled back about 40 points or so 50. points on this one. Uh all right so July. PCE we came in a little bit hotter than. expected monthtomonth a gain of 210 of. monthtomonth. The expectation was. 1/10enth. Uh 3.7% year-over-year. This.

is July. PCE. >> That's hot. >> That is a hot number. Yeah, the. expectation was 3.6. Core came in line. at 210 of a percent up. And then core. year-over-year came in in line with. expectations 3.3. But we have seen a. reversal in future. >> And then you had California Governor. Gavin Newsome address the Canadian. people. Here's what he said. Play this. clip. I I've I've I've enjoyed from my. days as mayor of San Francisco. relationships with your council general. Uh I've seen prime ministers come and.

go. I had a good relationship with your. last prime minister. Uh I I've had the. pleasure of being up from my early days. up in Hudson Bay and uh and uh and and. out there with the Beluga Wales and uh. great memories in some of the great. cities in uh in Canada. So I I I love. your country. I love the people. I love. the investment. Uh and so for me, this. is just, you know, who I am. I I'm I'm. proud of the work I've done as governor. I'm proud of relationship we've had with. your country. Uh and I just want folks. to know California is a stable partner.

Uh we do not uh in any way, shape, or. form condone the behavior of this. president as it relates to how he's. treated you. And uh and just in the. condescending terms. U I'm I'm I'm. disgusted by it. And I just want folks. up north to know uh that there are a lot. more Americans like me than there are. like Donald Trump. More Trump regime. officials this morning attacking Canada. You have criminal Peter Navaro going on. right-wing propaganda network saying the. following. Play this clip. It.

>> starts with the fact that China, excuse. me, Canada cheats us. They cheat us on. dairy. Uh they cheat they won't let us. sell our alcoholic beverages there. Lumber's a mess. Yeah. Um and we we gave. them we gave them a a really good deal. That deal was so good that that it kind. of made me a little bit nervous cuz it. was it was a good deal. It was a fair. deal. >> Mhm. >> Jameson Greer negotiated it well, but it. was right up to the edge where you want. to be about being as fair to your.

trading partner as you possibly. And. that Carney, >> he said he he went off on his Trump. derangement thing. And here's the rule. here. There's the there's a rule here. The higher Carney goes in his polling in. politics. appealing to this Trump derangement. syndrome. Yeah. The lower their economy. is going to fall. >> Senator Angus King put out the. following. Uh he's from Maine. This is. the statement that he put out. He warned.

that a trade war with Canada could. devastate many industries, particularly. as it relates to Maine, the lobster. industry, noting Maine lobsters could be. pinched twice since much of it gets sent. to Canada for processing before being. reimpported to the US. The potential. tariff double whammy is a concern that. Alex seats Wald, he's a reporter in the. area that he's heard from lobstermen who. tend to be pretty right-wing along with.

questions about what trade disputes mean. for foreign lobster demand, imported. fishing gear, diesel prices, and more. Well, I'll answer it for the lobster men. in Maine, many of who I know watch this. show. It's going to make the prices. significantly more expensive. It's going. to make the input prices significantly. more expensive. It's going to cut off. export markets as well. And it's going. to cause again all of the prices to. increase this. And it's also going to.

harm tourism, which it already has as. Canada's gone elbows up and they've. boycotted American goods and services. and they've boycotted hospitality and uh. traveling to the United States. So, with. all of this going on, what else is. that's Donald Trump doing that podcast. this morning. Well, guess what else you. have? You have the right-wing extremist. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. sitting down on a podcast with MAGA. Republican extremist Senator Ted Cruz. I.

mean, what the hell is even going on? I. mean, that's why the name of our book is. WTF America. As one person notes, a. sitting Supreme Court justice doing a. buddy podcast interview with a sitting. senator. I guess they don't even pretend. to keep the Supreme Court above the. political fray and nonpartisan, but. let's be clear who the they are. It's. MAGA. It's Trumpism. It's these. rightwing extreme fascists. That's who.

it is. This isn't normal politics. This. isn't the way it used to be. This is. what Trumpism and MAGA fascism has done. in this country and the United States of. America is so much better than this. crap. Just take a look at what Ted Cruz. and Clarence Thomas were doing. This is. the teaser here. Play this clip. Justice. Clarence Thomas. It is entitled Going. Further: The Incomparable Clarence. Thomas. And Justice Thomas very kindly.

agreed to sit for 9 and 1/2 hours of. one-on-one interviews with me over the. past year. So, I have to tell you about. this gamechanging product I use before a. night out with drinks. It's called. pre-alcohol. You have to have. pre-alcohol before you go out. I love. getting together with friends on the. weekend, but I also want to be up early. the next morning with my family and. ready to go. Ziotics pre-alcohol. probiotic drink is the world's first. genetically engineered prebiotic. It was. invented by PhD scientists to tackle. rough mornings after drinking. I. seriously could not go out without this.

Here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic. byproduct in the gut. It's a buildup of. this byproduct and not dehydration. that's to blame for rough days after. drinking. Pre-alcohol produces an enzyme. to break this byproduct down. Just. remember to make pre-alcohol your first. drink of the night. Drink responsibly, and you will feel your best tomorrow. I. got to say, I was a little skeptical at. first, but I tried it before meeting up. with friends for dinner and drinks. The. next morning, I was up early making. breakfast, hanging out with my kid,

getting on with the day exactly how I. wanted. That made me the ultimate. believer. Mondays don't move for anyone. Pre-alcohol works overnight, so you. could have a real weekend and still show. up sharp. So, do this for me. Go to. ziotics.com/idas. and use code midas for 15% off your. first order. That's zbiotics.comus. code Midas for 15% off your first order. zbiotics.com/midas. code midas mi d- a s.

and then I followed this as well. What. were they saying on podcasts in Israel. for the Netanyahu regime? one of. Netanyahu's top adviserss um said uh the. Israeli diaspora affairs minister said. what do we do with the Palestinians. let's start by defining it as enemy. because the moment you don't know how to. say that that you have an enemy you. start confusing yourself first of all.

you have to understand what this thing. called an enemy actually is and then. Netanyahu said on Iran I want to tell. you We still have challenges ahead of. us. The challenge of Iran has not ended. We also have to finish the challenge in. Gaza, in Lebanon, and in other arenas, and we are determined to do it. You mean. the genocide for which you are a war. criminal under the international. criminal courts to which the Trump. regime, in order to help you have.

sanctioned the president of the IC, Tamokco Akani. And I just want you to. hear those words from the Netanyahu. regime as our farmers are suffering here. in the United States. Our manufactur all. Americans are suffering. Gas prices are. at record high. Diesel prices are at. record high. People can't afford homes. here. People have had their healthcare. ripped away. American people are. struggling right now all across the. board here. We saw that in the inflation.

readout. We're getting into these. never-ending wars because of Netanyahu's. uh destruction in the area. It's and and. it's it's it's sick. It's sick. And then. we sanctioned the United States. sanctioned the International Criminal. Courts President Tamokco Aconi. I mean, this is a I mean, this again, this Trump. regime is a sick group of people. This. is what ICC President Tamoko Aconi said. on the US sanctions against her. This is. what she said this morning. They will. not change the way I approach my.

judicial duties, nor will I allow myself. to be pressured by these threats. We. will make every effort to ensure that. the sanctions do not impair our work in. the slightest. Justice will and should. prevail. That's what you have to do to. stand up to this despicable Trump. regime. Going back to that weird Trump. podcast appearance from earlier. So, what was the Trump CIA Putin meeting all. about? Although in Russia they claim. that Putin didn't even want to meet with.

CIA director John Ratcliffe and it was. just Ratcliffe meeting with Russian. intelligence. Donald Trump's like, "Well, I don't want to disappoint. people, but it was just a pretty routine. meeting." And then Donald Trump blabbers. about whatever. He can't speak in actual. sentences, so he just blabbers about. whatever else is on his mind. So you're. But by the way, didn't you see a lot of. people go after my reporting and they. were like, "Ben, no. Ratcliffe is going. there to stand up to Putin and he's. going to tell Putin, "We've got.

Ukraine's back, man. And Donald Trump is. giving you a final warning, Putin." I'm. like, I'm like, "What would lead you to. believe that? Trump is a Putin. bootlicker. He has always been a Putin. bootlicker." And so, what would make you. think that the Trump regime is going to. stand up to Putin? I'm like, it's the. most ridiculous cosplay fantasy that you. have in your mind that that's what the. meeting was actually about. And it. wasn't. It was a It was Trump. It was a. routine meeting and it was probably to.

kiss Putin's ring. Here, play this clip. right here. >> Got him. Can you tell me why our CIA. director flew in the middle of the night. to meet with the Russians? >> Well, none of the above. He's there on, you know, very sort of semi-rine. I hate. to disappoint people. Uh we would like. to see the war with Ukraine end. That's. a war would have never started. Glenn if. I were president. That's one of the one. that's one of the negatives of not. having it done that way. I think this. way is actually turned out to be bigger. in many ways. But you wouldn't have had.

the war with Ukraine and you wouldn't. have had 25 million people coming into. our country like they did. Just come in. like uh we were a bunch of fools. It was. so sad. But they, you know, 20 and I. think the number is higher than 25. frankly. but they came in from prisons. and they were drug dealers and they were. murderers and everything. >> Then Donald Trump goes on with how we've. really dominated Iran right now. We're. really showing them here. Let's play. this clip. >> B2 bombers a little more than a year ago. where we knocked out the nuclear to the. president. We have really dominated.

really truly dominated. >> Um and Donald Trump lies and says when. he opens up his mouth he's lying. We've. got rid of their minds. We've demined. the straight of Hermuse, man. Everybody. knows we control the straight of. Hermuse, man. I know that's the opposite. of I don't want to do a Trump impression. with his voice. Uh, what do you mean we. we didn't demine the straight of Hormuz? You need naval ships that do demining.

Then they weren't in there. Just stop. being so freaking dumb, man. Just stop. We didn't demine it. Iran controls the. straight of Hormuz. If we controlled it. and there was so much if there was so. much uh crude coming out then the then. the price of oil would drop. It's supply. and demand man. Obviously that's not. what's taking place. There's a reason. why we we're at these salt caverns of. our strategic petroleum reserves tank. bottom. It's because we run out of we've. run out of crude because of you because. the straight of Hermuz is closed. Just.

stop lying. Every stupid thing that you. say is a freaking lie. It's just so. dumb. so dumb to have the leader of the. United States. Every word's a freaking. lie. I mean, he's like us. He's actually. a psychotic thing. Like, we just have to. write. He's a psycho. He's a psychotic. thing in the Oval Office. It's. ridiculous. Here, play this clip. >> The minds are gone. You probably saw. that. We put it out yesterday. All the. mines. We got rid of the mines. But the. straight, it's functioning. It's a. functioning straight. Uh yes, every once. in a while there'll be a drone or a.

rocket or something shot, but it is a. very functioning straight. A lot of oil. is pouring out. 10 million gallons, 10. million barrels yesterday. But as far. >> and then he says, I'm prohibiting Sharia. I'm prohibiting the Sharia law thing. What do you mean you're prohibiting the. Sharia law thing? What is What are you. talking about? Again, this guy's just. stupid. Like what? Don't don't don't. freaking elect stupid psychotic people. who are bankrupters who are sexual. predators and losers their whole life.

There's a freaking loser here. Play this. clip. See, >> it's all about good politics is all. about common sense. Anyway, but I would. absolutely. prohibit the Sharia law thing and it is. happening in this country a little bit. and where we see it, we take it out and. you have to take it out. You have one. sis that we have a great. >> And speaking about him being a sexual. predator uh this morning the DOJ. signaling it's going to appeal the Katie. Fang lawsuit ruling uh requiring removal.

of some of the redactions in the Epstein. files. Right. A federal judge ordered. that they produce the Epstein files. They produce some of the they unredact. some of the names in the Epstein files. And rather than just do it, just listen. to the federal judge. just do it. What's. the issue? There's a law. It's the. Epstein Transparency Act. The judge told. you to do it. What do they say? Appeal. We're going to appeal it. Why? Because. they're covering up the Epstein class. They're covering up a group of people.

who are sick and disgusting. And while. they torture you, while they make you. suffer, this is what their behavior is. And then finally, you had Usha Vance, JD. Vance's wife, going on a State Regime. Media Fox morning podcast style show and. she's asked, "What's the best advice. you've given JD?" And she's like, "I. just tell him, you need to go off social. media. You're on social media too much.

here." Play. >> that you also advise uh JD, our our vice. president at times. What's the best. advice that you've ever given him. politically speaking? I think the best advice was to take a uh. a little bit of a social media break. Okay. A piece of advice that I've been. giving him since he encountered social. media because it just the constant flow. of stuff is just so exhausting. Um, and. I think that, you know, he did that for. Lent. And I think it was a really.

enjoyable experience for him to kind of. step back to get information less. constantly and just get it in. >> That's the Trump regime for you. Really. despicable, disgusting, vile humans. And. it's not in a political way, not in a. oh, Republicans this, Democrats that, independent. No, no, no, no. Just awful. humans. awful humans. And you just have. to recognize that that these are bad. people who want to do you harm. That's.

it. That's it. It's simple. It's simple. The the these people are awful. And I'm. just showing you the clips. This is this. is what they're saying. I'm showing you. what their words are.
