Trump’s SHUTDOWN Already INSTANTLY BACKFIRING in HIS FACE

Very odd behavior indeed. A very. demented Donald Trump. Keeps posting. photographs of himself, pointing his. finger at Democratic House leader Hakee. Jeff, almost like a schoolyard bully. This is how Donald Trump is behaving. right now as the government has shut. down. Also in that photo, you see the. Trump 2028 hat. Apparently, that's all. Donald Trump was talking about during. that meeting with Democratic House. Leader Hakeim Jeff and Democratic Senate. Leader Chuck Schumer. Do you like my. Trump 2028 hat? When I previously spoke.

with California Governor Gavin Newsome, he said that Donald Trump just. repeatedly was talking about the Trump. 2028 hat. This is a very deranged human. being, and it's not funny at all as he. talks about being dictator for life, especially as Americans are suffering by. this uh shutdown that Donald Trump. forced. We're getting bad job numbers. this morning as well. Uh what we learned. in this Trump economy from the ADP. private payroll numbers that just came.

in is that US private sector businesses. lost 32,000 jobs in September. That's. far below the expected gain of 51,000. per payroll processor ADP. And then the. August private payroll numbers were. revised down by 57,000. uh to -3,000. So a big drop there as well. We're. seeing small and medium-sized businesses.

suffer the biggest job losses. And I'm. sure you all know just whether it's. yourself or people you're friends with. or just people who you're talking to, the job market right now is in a. condition that we normally see during. recessions and great recessions. It is. absolutely frozen and it is not in a. good uh situation. So, you had all of. the kind of MAGA Republican leaders go. on the various kind of state regime uh.

Fox shows and went on other corporate. news and they tried to uh spin this. government shutdown um as you know the. Democrats fault or I mean here you had. JD Vance moments ago um and he was on. state regime media Fox and they were. talking about the meeting. It's a very. serious meeting right between it should. have been a very serious meeting between. Donald Trump, Republican leaders in the. House and Senate, Magna Mike Johnson, Senator Thun, Democratic leader Hakee. Jeff and Democratic Senate leader Chuck.

Schumer, right? Like we expected to be. handled with the seriousness to avoid a. shutdown and Democratic leaders showed. up with a level of seriousness there. And JD Vance and the state regime media. hosts over here are all like, "But did. you like the Trump 2028 ads? How funny. is that? How funny are the Trump 2028. hats? Folks, this is not normal. behavior. Like, this is not how adults. should be behaving, but this is the.

Trumpification of a significant portion. of our media ecosystem, you know, and. right now, you know, how these. right-wing politicians behave. It's like. it's it's not funny. It's im it's not. even humorous like it's immature. It's. just it's grotesque. Just wa watch for. yourself here. Play this clip. >> So can you give us some insight into. what they talked about maybe how we can. come to a compromise. >> and the hats.

>> the Trump Trump trolling them with 28. hats. >> Yeah. Thank you, Lawrence. That that's. the most important part. There were also. the Trump 2028 hats which I think made. uh the majority or the minority leader. in both the House and the Senate very. uncomfortable. So then they put Magam. Mike Johnson on ABC with George. Stephanopoulos and George Stephanopoulos. asks Maga Mike Johnson. So, as we approached this shutdown, Donald. Trump was posting deep fake videos, AI.

videos of Hakee Jeff wearing a sombrero. and having a mustache and mariachi bands. and then Chuck Schumer was um given AI. kind of fabricated things that he was. saying like, do you think that this is. how the president of the United States. should be dealing with things, you know, before a shutdown? down or or is this. how shutdown negotiations are handled in. the White House? Is this when Americans. are about to have their uh Affordable.

Care Act premiums double or triple? Is. this how you think discussions happen at. a high level? Like is is is this you're. okay with this? Watch the response. >> there. Let me ask you about President. Trump. He had another deep fake video. overnight. How does that uh help the. cause of getting a deal and opening the. government? Look, the the the president. uses social media for humor. He makes. jokes. He does he's does lots of things. What the president did in showing. leadership though two days ago was he. brought in Chuck Schumer and Hakee Jeff.

to meet with me and leader Thun in the. Senate to to try to work this out. He. gave them unlimited time they had in the. Oval Office and they they would not come. to the table to do exactly George what. they themselves have said repeatedly. over and over and over. And he goes, "Oh, that's just what we like. It's. humorous. It's it's funny." And by the. way, I think that there's a time and a. place for humor, right? The White House. correspondents dinner where the press. show up and you can have self-deprecated. humor. There's there's times where.

humor, you know, not not, by the way, Donald Trump canceled that, right? He. doesn't show up to that because he can't. take people um doing jokes or roasting. him right now. Um there are times and. place for jokes, but when we're talking. about people losing their health care. and government shutdowns, this this. isn't funny behavior. like grow up like. like literally just act like a grown-up. because Americans right now are living. paycheck to paycheck and they're trying. to figure out how they're going to be. able to support themselves and their. families and you posting AI images of.

Democratic leaders wearing sombrero. wearing sombrero and having mustaches. and I guess making fun of Mexican people. or I I don't know what you're even. trying to do there. like that's that's. not what is called for, you know, especially right now at this moment and. and and ever. Then you have Magga Mike. Johnson. Um he went on state regime. media and he said, "Actually, I think. that this shutdown's an opportunity for. us. This could be great because it's. like giving Donald Trump the keys to the.

kingdom and now Trump can do whatever he. wants as a result of the government. shutdown." So, don't you think that. Magga Mike's just kind of giving the. whole game away right here? Here, play. this clip. President Trump has said, you. know, he could use this as an. opportunity to further cut government. and and and turn some of those temporary. furls into permanent job cuts. Speaker, can you assess what you're expecting in. terms of the job cuts and how severe. they could be? >> Yes, the president and I have talked. about this at great length. While while. a shutdown is very damaging for real.

American people who depend upon. government services, it can provide an. opportunity to downsize this the scope. and the scale of government, which is. something that we've all always wanted. to do. And so, in a way, Chuck Schumer. has now handed the keys to the kingdom. to the executive branch under President. Trump to do some things that we would. not otherwise be able to do because we. would never get Democrat votes for them. Now Russ vote is in charge as you know. of the office of management and budget. and it it is his responsibility to look. at all of this and make very difficult. choices. He he gets to decide now what.

services are essential, what programs. and policies should be continued and. which would not be a priority for. taxpayers. That is what is about to. happen and Chuck Schumer has allowed. that. And so from his political. perspective, it's a pretty massive. backfire. And there's a real opportunity. uh for government to work more. efficiently and effectively for the. people if those decisions are made. >> Well, I mean, Believe Me makes it easy, quick, and safe to remove your personal. data online at a time when surveillance. and data breaches are common enough to. make everyone vulnerable.

back from George Stephanopoulos on the. ABC interview where Stephanopoulos. correctly states that the Democratic. proposal is designed to prevent millions. of American citizens from losing their. health insurance. That's literally what. it says. It has nothing to do with. helping um migrants on Medicare or. Medicaid. They're not they're not. allowed to be on Medicare and Medicaid. And here's Mike Johnson's response. He.

goes, "That's an absurd statement." And. George Zephanopoulos goes, "That's an. I'm reading the plan. It's an accurate. statement." Here, watch this. This. morning, the the Democratic proposal is. designed to prevent millions of. Americans from losing their health. insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or. paying higher health care premiums. Why. are you against that? >> That's an absurd uh statement what you. said there. Let's be clear about what. happened last night, George. No, George. Let me tell you what happened last. night. Everybody can go and review the. facts for themselves. 44 Senate. Democrats voted to reject a clean,

nonpartisan, continuing funding. resolution to keep the United States. government open. The Democrats said. instead that they wanted to give healthc. care to illegal aliens instead of. keeping critical services provided for. the American citizens. That's what. happened, plain and simple. Every. Democrat in the House except one voted. against the clean continuing resolution. It was nonpartisan in nature. There are. no policy writers on it that Republicans. favored. It's exactly what Chuck Schumer. and other Democrats voted for in March.

But they've changed their tune. They. changed their tune because Chuck Schumer. is having political problems right now. That's just a simple fact. And everybody. knows that he's trying to outrun the. far-left portion of his base. So, he's. decided to inflict pain on the American. people. Reality you Here are the facts. The proposal does not provide healthcare. for illegal immigrants. Illegal. immigrants cannot buy health care under. the Affordable Care Act. They cannot. receive health care subsidies. Illegal. imig immigrants are ineligible for. Medicare, Medicaid, and the children's. health program. The Democratic bill does.

not make them eligible. >> It does actually because what it does is. it unwinds the changes that Republicans. put into the big beautiful bill, the big. signature legislation that we passed and. signed into law on July 4th that has. been very successful in in shoring up. Medicaid for the people who are actually. eligible to receive it. what we did in. the bill and the CBO just verified this. 3 weeks ago. The Congressional Budget. Office, the nonpartisan arbittors of. everything up here, they said that those. provisions have helped to reduce. premiums. Why? Because we got ineligible.

recipients off of Medicaid, illegal. aliens and able-bodied young men who are. riding the wagon who are not eligible to. be there. Medicaid is intended for. specific populations of US citizens. That is young pregnant women who are. down on their luck, the disabled and the. elderly. they were those resources are. being drained from those folks and so we. fixed that. We reduced fraud, waste and. abuse in the program. Chuck Schumer's. counterp proposal on the CR would. reverse that. That is a simple fact. >> The CBO did not say about illegal.

immigrants. You've made your point right. there. Let me ask you about President. Trump. >> So then Stephanopoulos asks Magna Mike. Johnson, what was your reaction? What do. you think about Donald Trump speaking to. those generals and admirals yesterday. and saying that he wants to unleash the. United States military already has but. that the wars that they're going to be. fighting are going to be the wars within. that he's going to fight wars against. Los Angeles and and San Francisco and. Chicago and and and Democratic cities.

and in Democratic states. What do you. think about that, Maggamike? And Magga. Mike's like, I you know, look, I run the. house. I don't really listen to those. speeches. No, I I didn't hear any of. that. I don't really know what you're. talking about. Here, play this clip. >> The president also said at the Pentagon. yesterday that he wants American cities. to be used as training grounds for the. American military. Is this the highest. and best use of the US military? And is. this the right way to train them? >> I I I don't uh serve in the Pentagon. I. run the House of Representatives. And. what we need to be talking about today. is real harm that the American people.

are going to feel because of what Chuck. Schumer is doing. Let me tell you what's. what's. >> hold on a second. The speaker of the. house, do you believe that nutrition. program? Speaker of the house, do you. believe it's appropriate to use American. cities as training grounds for the US. military, calling those people in the. American cities the enemy within you? I'm asking you as speaker of the house, do you think that's appropriate? >> I'm I'm not going to comment on your. characterization what the president. said. I didn't get those quotes. yesterday. Well, you can take his quotes. out of context, which you often do, and. I don't think that's fair to the,

>> you know, because at the same time, Magga Mike said that what we learned is. it seems that in exchange for the. Qataris giving Donald Trump a jet, here's what Donald Trump Donald Trump's. basically agreed to for the United. States to give NATO security guarantees. to Qatar. So, we bailed out Argentina. We gave him $20 billion for them to then. undercut our soybean farmers here and. sell their soybeans cheaper to China to.

undercut American farmers after you your. taxpayer dollars went to bail out. Argentina because they have a right-wing. MAGA puppet leader there named Javier. Malu. So they have that and now Donald. Trump saying as part of his initiative. to end the war in Gaza, this is how they. claim it. as part of his initiative to. end the war in Gaza. They go, "This is. an unprecedented security agreement. between the US and Qatar. The United. States will regard any armed attack on.

the territory, sovereignty, or vital. infrastructure of the state of Qatar as. a threat to peace and security in the. United States. In the event of such an. attack, the United States will take all. appropriate and lawful measures, including diplomatic, economic, and if. necessary, military measures in order to. defend the interests of the United. States and the state of Qatar and to. restore peace and stability. So, Donald. Trump didn't do that for Ukraine. Okay?

Donald Trump has really not done that. for NATO nations as Russia has engaged. in provocative actions over Poland and. and other countries. And Donald Trump is. invading American American cities. But. everybody, Qatar gave him a private 747. jet. So now they get NATO like security. guarantees. It's that easy to buy your. way into the United States. I think that. is utterly utterly pathetic right there. But you tell me what you think. Then you.

have JD Vance going on the morning shows. and he continues to lie. And JD Vance is. like, initially what they said is that. they were going to shut the government. down because Donald Trump's a dictator. Then they're saying they're going to. give all of this healthc care to illegal. aliens. Here, play this clip. And. obviously the longer this drags on, the. worse that it is for the American. people. So we are where we are. And to. your point, what do Senate Democrats ask. for? Well, initially they said that they. wanted to shut down the government. because Donald Trump was a dictator.

Okay, that's absurd. Then they said they. wanted to shut down the government. because they wanted hundreds of billions. of dollars for health care benefits for. illegal aliens. That of course is also. absurd. And now they're saying they just. want to work on ensuring that Americans. have lowcost health care. Well, I agree. with them. Of course, we all want to. ensure that Americans have lowcost. healthcare. So, let's work together on. that. And can I just address a question? Like, I I I I mean this seriously. you. know, the the Democratic plan does not. give undocumented migrants.

um Medicare or Medicaid or or or the. Affordable Care Act tax credit. extensions. It has nothing to do with. that. But let take a step back though. So the MAGA position, just to be clear, is let's say that there is an. undocumented migrant who's been here say. over 10, 15 years contributing to this. country. Let's say they're a roofer. Let's say they're they're working on a. construction project building homes. contributing to the United States.

economy. Or say they're working on farms. and they're contributing to the American. economy. Let's just use the roof. example. They fall off the roof. They're. on the ground. They are bleeding out and. you can bring them to the hospital and. their lives will be saved and they. they'll go on and have a great life. They have families. Just to be very. clear, the MAGA position is that the. individual who is injured should not go. to a hospital and they should die. And.

that and and these MAGAS who call. themselves Christians are okay with that. individual not depriving a human being. of medical care, letting them bleed out. because they're undocumented. I'm sorry. I'm not okay with that. Like, I'm. personally not okay with that. Like I. would want the person to be treated. I'd. want the doctor to be paid for treating. them because we're human beings. We're. here for a very short period of time on. this planet Earth together. Why wouldn't. we just be decent people? You want to.

watch people die just because of their. of the color of their skin or because. they were undocumented. I'm just I I'm. not okay with that anyway, you know? But. that's what the MAGA Republicans seem to. be saying. So why don't they just say. that? Why don't they say that that they. want to see people die while they call. themselves Christians and pro-life?
