Donald Trump's 1 a.m. meltdown after being forced to sign into law a bill to release the Epstein files, it was a sight to behold. So at 1 a.m., he was ranting and raving at comedian Jimmy Kimmel for mocking and making fun of him. Donald Trump goes, why does ABC fake news keep Jimmy Kimmel a man with no talent and very poor television ratings on the air? Why do the TV syndicates put up with it? Also, totally buy. highest coverage. Get the bum off the air! exclamation point. Also, late at night, Donald Trump was posting, according to most, one of the best opening 10 months for the president in USA history. So then why do you have the lowest approval rating ever? According to Fox. I could cite for you, Reuters, and Ipsos, an AP, and U-Gov, where you also have the lowest polling in the history of modern presidents. But let's just talk about the Fox poll. where you got absolutely wiped out. Here's how they described it on Fox.

Let's play this clip. But the issue of affordability, the issue of how people feel about the economy popping up in our latest polls, a personal financial situation now, excellent, good, 40%, only fair or poor, 60%. You can see that changing from July. Condition of the U.S. economy,

also a perception totally upside down, 76 to 25, and that changing a bit. And then economic conditions for the nation, and you personally, again, 25% positive, 76, negative for the nation, and then 6040 personally. You want to talk about the best 10 months? Seriously, why don't we just look at the prices of items going into Thanksgiving? Coffee up 15.3% year over year. Let's be clear what this is. More than last year, year over year. Ground beef up 14.2%. Beef steaks up 10.1%. Bananas up 7.9%. Lettuce, 5.9%. Frozen juice and drinks, 4.4%. Lunch meats up 4.2%. How about the cost of turkey for Thanksgiving? Wholesale prices have jumped. Get this, 40% year over year. A 40% year over year increase in wholesale prices. So Turkey, typically the centerpiece of the Thanksgiving meal, will be one of the biggest sticker shocks.

And Donald, you can say, oh, it's going to be so much cheaper. Turkey is so affordable right now. We know that's not the case. You were just an absolute liar. And while the American people are suffering, you held a convention with the Saudis and your billionaire friends yesterday. And you were praising the pandemic. and you were saying when America became the king of ventilators, it was an amazing time and everything was great when we were the king of ventilators.

What the hell is he talking about? Here, play this clip. But we did great, and then we started doing the gowns and the masks and the goggles and the ventilators. We were sending ventilators all over the world. We became the king of ventilators. But what a period of time that was for all of us. But despite that we had the greatest economy in the history of our

We had the greatest economy in the history of the world. More posts, right, Donald Trump late at night, photographs of the Saudi royal family and his billionaire buddies. That's exactly what we want to see, Donald, as Americans are quite literally starving to death, as the food bank lines are bigger than ever, as America's essentially having a stealth, great depression right now that's being artificially inflated. by artificial intelligence by this AI bubble, which, by the way, seems to be crashing right now. Americans are psychologically tortured living paycheck to paycheck right now that can't afford their rent, highest credit card delinquencies essentially ever, jobless claims higher than at any point since the Great Recession and COVID, which by the way, I guess you say that was a great period. You were the king of ventilators. You're posting photos with Elon Musk and the head of

NVIDIA and all of your billionaire friends. Oh, how disgusting, how reprehensible. Speaking of disgusting and reprehensible, NBC got an incredible exclusive yesterday, and it's what we suspected to be true. A lawyer at U.S. Southern Command, the top lawyer, which oversees the strikes against alleged drug smuggling boats near Venezuela, disagreed with the Trump regime's position. that the operations are lawful and was overruled according to six sources. So to be clear, the top lawyer from U.S. Southern Command was overruled by Trump's Department

of Justice, according to this article. The main military lawyer overruled by Pem Bondi and Todd Blanche and people like that. People like that at the DOJ because the top military lawyer said that these strikes, on these boats off the coast of Venezuela and Colombia and the Pacific likely constitute extrajudicial killings and are war crimes. What have I been calling it since day one? War crimes. Over 82 people have been killed. That's why I call Pete Hegsep, Secretary of Defense, who used to be a Fox News weekend host night, but news in quotes, war criminal. Anybody in that chain of command, war criminals. And that's also why a lot of Democratic leaders who had backgrounds in the military like Senator Kelly, who was a fighter pilot, flew missions, was shot at, sunk ships in the Persian Gulf, in the Iraq War.

Okay, that's in the Persian Gulf War. It's Senator Kelly. It's been telling the troops, you can't follow unlawful orders because you can be brought up in the war crime tribunals as well. There will be a future without Donald Trump. And that future seems closer and closer as Trump gets more and popular every single day. And war crimes will be prosecuted. People will be held accountable. That's the future.

And these people who are involved in this, war criminals who will be tried on war tribunals in the future. That's what will happen. And I think any person running from the Democratic Party needs to be clear that these people go in front of war crime tribunals. Where else would you put them? Well, all of this was going on as well. The Trump family lost like $5 billion of its paper wealth from Trump media recently. So Donald Trump's media company, Trump Media, which is the parent company of Truth Social. I know there's a lot of news to follow Trump's cover up of the Epstein files.

Trump prosecutor, Lindsey Halligan from the Eastern District of Virginia, never actually presenting the grand jury indictment to the grand jury in the Comey case. the only indictment they ever presented, they rejected the first time, and then she just had the four-person sign a second indictment, which became the operative indictment that the grand jury never even saw, and the judge smoked it out yesterday and uncovered it. But I digress. Why I'm bringing that up is, I know it's like, do I focus on this? Do I focus on that? Trump's meeting with the Saudis. He's giving them F-35 fighter jet technology and planes and nuclear technology, which will likely end up in China while his personal businesses get 63 while his real estate companies are participating. He'll probably find a way to blow it too because he's so freaking incompetent,

participating in $63 billion worth of real estate transactions in the Middle East. I'm not sure how much piece of that pie is him. Trump properties in the Maldives with the Saudis. Jared Kushner with the Saudis buying electronic arts. Where do I focus? But with all that going on, Let's focus on Trump Media, Donald Trump's company. Like this is your company, right? Trump Media has your name on it. Okay, in the past year, it's decreased close to 70%. It's now trading at $10.29.

It started as a SPAC, a special purpose acquisition company, and that's a blank check company that goes and purchases the company, in this case, Trump Media. When a SPAC starts, it starts at $10. a share. So it's basically at zero essentially because SPACs start at $10. So it's basically bottomed out. It's crashing. And I just want you to think about that. Why does this guy bankrupt all of his companies or why are all of his companies unsuccessful? Casino after casino, bankrupt, bankrupt, bankrupt, bankrupt, this company, that company, he's a failure. He cannot run things. And that shouldn't be, oh, well, Democrat, Republican, this, just look how poorly they've

run Trump media into the ground and he's the presidency. He's got the Saudis and the Qataris and the Emirates and he still can't freaking run this thing to make money and the stock's crashing. Think about our country. We're just, America is Trump media at this point. And then you're seeing all of these AI deals that seem to be just like the fake Trump deals. We're going, oh, two trillion, 10 trillion, 18 baguillion, baguillion, $23 bazillion, billion dollars, right? They just make announcements. Look at this, and Vidia says there was no assurance of a final agreement with Open AI despite $100 billion packs. So they make these announcements, the stock surge, and then they go, well, well, there's no assurance. It was a pact, an agreement to potentially agree in the future.

Stop treating us like we're freaking stupid here. And so while Fox is out there reporting how Trump's poll numbers, his approval is absolutely crashing. When Trump was in front of the Saudis, he's like, my pollster said, sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead, you'd be so much more popular than them. Here, play this clip. But I met with two pollsters because we were starting to think about the next election. They said, sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead and they aligned and they went for the president, vice president as a combination, you'd be beating them by 25 points.

And then the next day I was told that something strange is happening. Here's another clip, by the way, from Fox that talks about how you're like, and Donald Trump, despite all of the peace deals that he's doing, the American people just don't seem to think that they're safer. Here, play this clip. Now, peacemaking is a major source of pride for the president, but according to the latest Fox News poll, Americans are split on whether his peace deals will make the world safer.

Yeah, it's because he's not doing peace deals. He's making him up. He just said, oh, I stop the war in Congo. I stopped the war in this area. And it's like, no, you do. You just make, I stop the war between Thailand and Cambodia. And then it started again. Then it's not.

Then I take credit for everything. He promised he would end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. The war has not ended in 24 hours. In fact, in the past 24 hours, 25 innocent Ukrainians were killed, including three children. At the same time, the Trump regime has been secretly negotiating with a guy named Dmitriev, the Russian sovereign wealth fund leader, special envoy to the U.S., and the Trump regime refused to send Steve Whitkoff. They didn't show up in Istanbul. I'm going to do a whole other video about that in 90 minutes, where the U.S. didn't show up to Istanbul.

Zelensky was there all by himself with the leader of, with Erdogan, the leader of Turkey. while the Trump regime was about, was going to try to force Zelensky into a total surrender after the U.S. planned this with Kiriel Demetriov and they were going to go to Istanbul and tell Zelensky, you better surrender. Zelensky and the Europeans found out

and they were ready with their counter plan and Trump was like, Whitkoff, you got to get back because Ukraine spoke out what Trump was doing. By the way, this is where Trump says that the price of Turkey is down 33. and all Thanksgiving is going to be cheaper. We know that's false. Play this clip. I believe within a year or two years after the election, we were headed in a very bad

direction. And now we're headed in the best direction. I think that we've ever been headed according to the USDA. Turkey is down. Think of that 33%. And I'm not talking about the country of Turkey. He's doing fine. Erdogan is doing good. Just want to, you know, I don't want him calling me. down 33%. He's a friend of ours. We've got to take care of our friends. And then Trump in this speech to the Saudis talks about how he'd love to fire the Fed chair. Here, play this clip.

And eggs are way down now. Mortgage rates are down despite the Fed. I mean, Scott, you got to work in this guy. He's got some real mental problems. And now he's something wrong with him. It's just, I'd be honest, I'd love to fire his ass. He should be fine. Guy's grossly incompetent.

And he should be sued for spending $4 billion to build a little building. I'm building a ballroom that's going to cost a tiny fraction of that, and it's bigger than the whole thing put together. You've got to work on him, Scott. The only thing Scott's blowing it on is the Fed. Because the Fed, the rates are too high, Scott. And if you don't get it fixed fast, I'm going to fire your ass, okay? There you have it, folks.
