Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, folks, the fractures inside Donald Trump's White House are getting even worse because now members of his administration, insiders in the room where it happens are leaking how detached from reality Donald Trump really is. These are people who see Donald Trump every single day. And they're admitting that, yeah, this guy has gone crazy and quite frankly has been crazy for quite some time. So I want to get into this report on this leak and just everything surrounding this story. And look, you might be asking, Harry, where are you? What is this behind you? Well, I'm at an airport right now. My flight got delayed seven hours and then eventually canceled. And right now I'm sitting here waiting for my bag to come out. So I thought, why not film a video here for you folks to talk about this important news? And now I'm here. And so after a long day and having my flight canceled, now we're going to talk about some news and we're going to have fun. So let's get into this article really quickly. Donald Trump's closest aides say the fact that he's obsessing over pet projects while his approval rating plummets shows how he's in total denial about the bonfire he's made of his second. in presidency, which certainly seems to be the case. I mean, Donald Trump's numbers have really never been lower. That's even looking back at his first term, and he was historically unpopular then.
Starting point is 00:01:08 And yet Trump just keeps going out there saying, affordability is a scam. There's nothing wrong. Everything's great. No worries. I'm so fantastic. So, yeah, he seems in denial. Trump dropped to 32% approval in Quinnipiac's latest survey released last week. That's the lowest figure of his political career, lower even than after January 6th. That was the worst moment of Donald. Donald Trump's political career so far. And now he's gotten even worse with the numbers. Now he's at 32%. Sixty-eight percent of voters say he's not paying enough attention to the issues weighing on most households. A Trump insider told Axios on Thursday, quote, he concentrates on the hobbies that distract from his terrible polling numbers about which he is in denial. The other issues,
Starting point is 00:01:50 how the war, tariffs, and monuments are demoralizing the base. And of course they are. Can you imagine trying to be a Republican commentator right now, like a MAGA fan, and the only thing you can say to voters for the midterm elections is, oh, well, Trump, you know, ruin the reflecting pool. There's a ballroom that's being constructed that has now been paused by an appeals court. It doesn't sound like a winning message to me, but that's all Republicans got. New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman says roughly 70% of his bandwidth goes towards construction projects and statues, saying, quote, it's a legacy thing. What a miserable legacy to have? What, you ruin the reflecting pool? You spent a bunch of money on this stuff and it never happened and it wasn't nice as he promised.
Starting point is 00:02:26 It did get finished in a week as he promised. I mean, what a joke. Really? That's what he wants his legacy to be. Well, let me just be clear about something. His legacy is that he's a felon. He covers up the Epstein files. He's corrupt. His second presidency was even worse than the first and none of it has actually been good. And on the topic of the reflecting pool and all the different monuments he's been working on, check this out. Trump's accidental sabotage of his own vanity project revealed. So not only has these projects backfired earned Donald Trump, but he's been part of the reason why it has. You know, not only has he spent all this money, but he has been involved in them failing.
Starting point is 00:03:02 So Trump inadvertently doomed his multimillion dollar renovation of the Lincoln Memorial, reflecting pool with his sweeping tariff plan according to a report. Rodney Jerobe, president of paint and coating manufacturer creative polymers, revealed to the New York Times how he'd been approached by the manager of Donald Trump's golf club in Bedminster for advice on how to reline the pool that Donald Trump was working on for America's 250 celebrations. Schutzenhofer, who works in hospitality and has no training in engineering or architecture, great start, then came up with the novel idea to coat the pool's concrete slabs with a polyure liner to fix the longstanding issue of it leaking. However, Trump's tariff plans targeting resins, the raw or semi-solid
Starting point is 00:03:41 form of a polymer from China, severely limited the amount of available coatings. So Trump screwed himself, and yet he is still living in. denial. He was actually just asked in a new interview what he's going to do if Democrats take back the House and they try to impeach him and they try to hold him accountable for his many different corrupt plans. And Trump just said, I'm not really concerned because I'm the greatest president ever. This is what he actually said. To be investigation mania, you know, they're going to do oversight. They can impeach you again. I mean, do you think they will? Well, a lot of people are saying I'm one of the greatest
Starting point is 00:04:14 president's effort. They're not saying that though. But they know, they see the results. Look, have right now more money being invested in the United States and at any time. Isn't that funny? Fact checked to his face. I mean, just brutal. He thinks he's the greatest president ever. A lot of people are saying I'm the greatest president ever. When he says a lot of people, he means himself. I've said this in videos before. When Donald Trump says many people or they are saying or a lot of people are saying that means him. So he is saying that he's the greatest president ever, which he does on a daily basis despite his many failures. It's just piqued illusions. And that brings us back to this report. I just want to quickly reference, which is insiders are leaking how detached from reality Donald
Starting point is 00:04:55 Trump is. It's not just with the reflecting pools. It's not just with the monuments. It's just across his presidency. He's completely out of touch. And, you know, Donald Trump really doesn't have anybody around him to correct him and say, hey, sir, you're wrong. He's surrounded himself with a bunch of yes men, people who are loyal to him and will clap for him no matter what. I mean, just take a look at this. He had this roundtable at the White House recently. And all of different members of his administration stood up and clapped like seals for an extended period of time until Trump is safely out of view. It's like North Korea stuff. I mean, how embarrassing is that? It's not like he accomplished something or announced something that actually is going to help the
Starting point is 00:06:02 American people. All of these people in Donald Trump's administration, the people around him, his advisors, just feel the need to stand and clap for him at any opportunity. Because if they don't, who knows what's going to happen to them. They're going to get fired. They're going to lose their job. They're going to lose standing with the president of the United States. It is Russia slash North Korea stuff. This is what we see in Russia. They stand up and clap for Putin anytime he walks into a room. And now here it is in the United States of America. Here's another one that I thought was really weird. One of the roundtable participants gave Trump a literal piece of gold. Talk about ass kissing and sucking up and just being yes men. I mean, they're now handing Donald Trump gold.
Starting point is 00:06:34 It should be very heavy. It's the heavy. The gold is more fun. Let me see. It is. It's real. That's fantastic. Oh, I like that too. This is so. This is so. valuable. I don't know. Do you have a lot of competition, I hope? Because people have to go after. This is so, people have no idea how valuable. Thank you very much. It's really beautiful. Please, David. And somebody who joined the Trump administration from the mining industry, I just want to say that. Oh my God. It's so embarrassing. Like, watching this as an American who deeply cares about this country, deeply cares about the people in the country and deeply cares about politics, I am like embarrassed. I really am that this is
Starting point is 00:07:18 where we are as a country where in order to, even get a meeting with the president, you have to flatter them, you have to applaud for them, you have to just be a yes man. It's just gross. And isn't there like some form of perhaps a corruption investigation that should be taking place here? I mean, the president is receiving gold in front of the entire country and nobody's asking any questions. That to me seems a little bit, you know, a little bit concerning. And what's really funny, I mean, it's funny and it's not funny at the same time, you know what I mean? But the people around Trump, Kevin Hassett, are also just lying about what we're speaking about right now. We're talking extensively about like the
Starting point is 00:07:49 yes men who exist around Donald Trump and his administration, but they're trying to rewrite history and say, well, actually, Donald Trump doesn't have any patience for yes men, which couldn't be further from the truth. Dr. Hassett, you know, it's often that great leaders need to be ones who surround themselves with people who can deliver them hard truths. And it's a strange time in this economy. Many things are changing, be it AI or impact of higher oil prices. I wonder what those conversations are like. How often are you coming to the president and delivering him advice that's maybe, maybe, be hard to take that parts of this economy maybe need various efforts. How often are you having
Starting point is 00:08:25 those difficult conversations? You know, I obviously can't talk about specific conversations with the president. I was in the Oval with them last night. We talked about a wide range of issues, and he doesn't really have much patience for yes men. And so when you go into a meeting in the Oval, what the guy can say is that you cover a wide range of topics and a wide range of opinion. You know, the Trump administration now at this point, you know, they've been doing this for a but with every single thing they say, they're just making stuff up. I mean, that's what it is. So why don't we start making stuff up?
Starting point is 00:08:55 I'm actually president of the United States. Matter of fact, I'm king of England and I'm going to space to land on the moon because I'm a NASA astronaut. I mean, we're just making stuff up now. If they can do it, we can do it too. It's so embarrassing. And also, I just want to point out that Donald Trump was struggling to stay awake also at this roundtable.
Starting point is 00:09:13 I mean, you know, the delusions, the age, the struggling to stay awake, I think that his being out of touch is part of his mental decline. But just take a look at this. Marco pointed out to expand our global allies and make sure we're doing it together. So we're going to secure reliable supply. We're going to strengthen our global partnerships. We're going to back American companies. We're going to make sure the United States, not our adversaries, controls the supply chains of power and critical minerals for our country and our future. The bottom line, we need to... Man, those eyes are looking heavy.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Another late-night social media posting spree has him falling asleep in meetings. That's great. I mean, what a disaster. So, anyway, I will wrap the video up there. I'm waiting for my bag right now. You know, hopefully I get it soon. But if not, that's okay. Because at least I got to talk to you folks a little bit with this video.
Starting point is 00:10:07 And I just had to cover this report as soon as I saw it, that, you know, members of Trump's administration are leaking his delusions. That's how you know the walls are corrupt. When the leaks start in any administration, Democrat, Republican, when the leaks start and they're this serious, not just like, oh, he doesn't like food, he doesn't like burgers, right? If it's something serious, like, yeah, the president is so delusional and detached from reality that he's focusing on these things and he thinks that people like him and that he's the greatest president ever, that's how you know what administration is really falling apart. So look, I will leave the video there. Thank you so much for watching. Please make sure to subscribe down below.
