The authoritarian strong man that Donald Trump wants to be has had the worst week that I can remember in a long time.
And that's a high bar because everything this man touches turns terrible.
It's a disaster.
It dies.
He had the utmost humiliation when he was in Davos.
World leaders were talking about his cognitive decline, the hand, the cancels.
I mean, it was front page news all over.
This man is.
unhinged and not with it. Then you have Jack Smith saying, beyond a reasonable doubt, he would have
been convicted. He was issuing death threats. This guy is a criminal through and through. And then
the worst insult to this man, to this poor little fragile, tiny hand, little man, low tea all the
way were his poll numbers that were absolutely in the toilet, which we've talked about. So it's like,
How is he going to react? Because I knew when all those polls, when you're seeing 10, you know, 10, 20 poles of him under 35, under 40, even some under 30, I knew his little ego couldn't take it.
So he starts with this barn burner about how he is going to, something should be done about fake polls.
He's got the, and he goes through all these fake accomplishments that he doesn't have.
Then he talks about how the New York Times and so many others print polls that they are knowingly false because he cannot wrap his head around.
We all now see him like he sees him, which is small and pathetic.
And so he's now calling for a lawsuit for fake pulse because his ego is that fragile.
And I know this isn't the first time we've talked about this and this isn't the first or last time that this has happened.
But overnight, he posted over 100 times on life social.
Then you've got Mike Johnson saying, well, he mixes upward.
He only sleeps three hours a night.
He sleeps three hours a night because he's too busy trying to hide the fact that he is the most pathetic,
weakened leader this United States of America has ever had.
So this has been one of his grievances.
for now 10, 11 years, mad at poll numbers,
gonna launch a lawsuit, goes to social media,
you know, does a bender on social media all of the time.
And this is gonna continue.
This is, this happened Trump 1.0,
this happened during Biden's administration.
This happens now.
And whenever he gets the truth put at him
is when he's gonna be most dangerous
and provocative with policy.
And it's already so dangerous.
dangerous and it's already so provocative. And again, what I have to say here is for me, the big
story is not Donald Trump acting like a nut. Donald Trump mad at poll numbers. I've been dealing
with this for 10 years. This is not new information for me. Where my brain goes is conflict resolution.
The resolution for me in this is the poll numbers are so abysmal. Why on earth are the Democrats carving out
seven votes to vote to fund ice. That's my point. I can't sit here anymore and talk about what
a nut this man is because it is ground hog day. It surprises me zero. Everything he does is the
exact same boring shit. He's a two to three trick pony. And my focus now are on the people that
claim that they oppose him. Why are you voting to fund and increase funding for an organization
that has a budget larger than the United States Marine Corps that is homiciding people in El Paso,
shooting people at point blank range with a lab in the backseat of the car because her wife
called some little pink arm, trigger-happy, broken, emotionally stunted goon, a big boy,
shoots her in the face and calls her a fucking bitch.
That's the extension of this insanity that I want to focus on that we can fix.
And I am mystified, mystified beyond everything,
that there isn't a revolt within the Democratic Party right.
now some brave house members that say you know what we're supposed to do I'm
supposed to get up to this microphone and I'm supposed to say I support Hakeem
Jeffries we are the resistance that's what I'm supposed to do I'm supposed to
say well some you know some people you know might feel like in their district
if they say we don't fund ICE that they're anti law enforcement and we need a
politician to stand up and say ICE is not law enforcement you know what I know
it, I'm not going to gaslight you. You're already getting gaslit enough by the Trump regime,
all of his bananaship, but we're here to tell you the truth. And either the minority leader can
join us, but we're going to keep doing these press conferences. And we're going to continue to
confirm every single day that what you're seeing is depraved, heartbreaking, an American, inhumane.
And we are confirming what you're seeing should not be funded by your taxpayer dollars and isn't
what a democracy, a functioning healthy democracy is supposed to do.
And that's where I want the conversation to shift because this man going bananas and
throwing feces on his idiotic social media platform is just simply another day in America.
You know, something that struck me when I saw that the House voted to continue the funding.
I thought, you know, we sit on here and we talk about how none of the Republicans will stand up to Donald Trump and they're too scared to vote against them.
And I just had this icky feeling all over me when I saw that because I'm like, I want us to be different than them.
I don't want us to sit here like Mike Johnson does and lie and say, well, I don't know and didn't do this.
And then you see that Hakeem Jeffries did not stand up to Donald Trump.
I mean, his individual vote might have, but he did not utilize his power.
And it made me feel icky because I thought there's not a whole lot of difference between us and them.
And that is a shameful place to be as a Democrat.
When your leaders, despite the fact they're not in the majority, again, refer to Mitch McConnell what he did in the minority.
And it's fucking embarrassing.
And something else, it's like Europe.
Trump goes to this world economic form.
He throws Europe under the bus in the worst way.
I don't even hear anybody on the Democratic side
other than Gavin Newsom who was there
and a few other like governors that were there.
But unless I missed it,
I didn't hear Hakeem Jeffries talking about
how he threw our allies under the bus
or Chuck Schumer, did you hear that?
Or have they just gone completely silent?
I haven't heard that, but I can't speak to whether they did or not because I don't know.
And I want us to be, you know, fact-based.
But it should have been so much that it should have gone viral.
We should know about it.
So if they put out a tweet here, they put it, you know, and a Mono Raju was following in the halls of Congress.
And it was some, you know, passive resistance to it.
it didn't make it and we're our news junkies it's our job to be and so my issue is every
American right now should know exactly the names of who the minority leaders of the opposition are
this is not the 2000s this is different we're up against a completely different machine
and do you think for a second if the roles were reversed that seven Republicans would go and
vote with the Democrats. The Democrats are absolutely horrible. Hakeem Jeffries can say, oh, I voted
no, and he can say that all he wants to. He had one job, whip the votes, whip them, whip the votes,
and he didn't whip. And it's just, he is such an impotent leader. It's really depressing. It's depressing
that his colleagues in the House go along with that he is doing such a lot of, that he is doing such
a great job. It really is a lie to the American public and it is the same style of appeasement
by extension that he's allowing those seven people to do. And all of the members of the house
that are not confrontational with Hakeem Jeffries about this, there are lives hanging in the
balance because of this. A sense of urgency needs to be there. And you're worried about some
purple district when the polling shows that this man is so underwater even with Trump supporters
and that ICE, not wanting to fund ICE and not supporting ICE is a moderate position, not a liberal
position, not a leftist position, not a progressive position, a moderate position.
Like the party that loves to crowdsource their morality and they so then it's like, oh, okay,
you are just the controlled opposition. It's so infuriating. It is, real leaders right now would meet
this moment. And the disappointment that I feel in Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer is a part
of my great awakening to realizing how broken and dysfunctional the Democratic Party is and how they
participate in basically the same show and pony dance that the Republican Party does, but they put
a few more things on the menu that I like. Gay marriage, equality, talking about potential
health care for people. And it's almost more insidious, quite frankly. Be truthful. Tell the truth.
Quit playing these chicken shit games where you're worried about the appearance of that or the appearance
of this. You think Donald Trump or the Republicans give a fuck about the appearances of anything they
say or do. J.D. Vance called him Hitler. Right. And survived it politically. The one thing that
MAGA has shown us is they don't give a fuck what the appearances of anything are. And guess what
they got in being authentic pieces of shit. They got the executive branch. They got the legislative
branch. And through minority votes, minority popular votes, they got the Supreme Court. It's unbelievable
how cowardice the Democratic Party is.
I completely agree.
And something that we've talked about on this show over and over, the urgency.
Where is the fucking urgency?
Fascism.
We are truly in the middle of an authoritarian takeover and we're writing strongly worded
letters.
I mean, it's just we are in a five alarm fire and nobody's coming to save us, but us.
