charge bet mgm operates pursuant to an operating agreement with iGaming ontario donald trump ran
away from washington dc today to take another vacation at mar-a-lago to play golf on the taxpayer dime. While on Air Force One, Donald Trump pulled out a
golden $5 million bill and said, this is a Trump gold card that we will be selling to oligarchs
and people who want to buy citizenship. This is what Trump was doing after crashing the markets
today, one of the worst crashes in American history.
Here, play this clip. the gold card, the Trump card and gold card. Who's the first buyer? Me. Who's the second?
I don't know, but I'm the first buyer. It'll be out in about less than two weeks.
And just so you can see that Donald Trump previously said that he would be selling
these Trump gold cards to Russian oligarchs. This is just from a few weeks back where he confirmed
his intention to sell these to oligarchs in Russia. Play this clip.
Russian oligarch be eligible for a gold card?
Yeah, possibly. Hey, I know some Russian oligarchs that are very nice people. It's possible.
Going back to Donald Trump's trip back to Florida, Moralago, where he will be golfing again. Here he is on Air
Force One being asked about additional facts that we're learning about all these war plans on Signal
and Gmail that his Defense Department and National Security Advisors are engaged in.
Donald Trump responds to the reporter, do not ever ask me about this again. Play this clip.
What could have happened on Pete Hicks' end in this IG investigation? Do you want to weigh in on
that? What is it? There's an IG investigation into the Secretary of Defense's use of the signal app.
Oh, is that you bringing that up again? Don't bring that up again. You're editors probably.
That's such a wasted story. So what up? Chinese farmland. Do not ever ask me about this
again. No offense to babies. I mean, Donald Trump is a little petulant baby. And again,
no offense to petulant babies. Donald Trump is then asked when the last time he spoke with
President Xi Jinping of China is. And then Donald Trump says, whatever, it doesn't matter. Nothing
matters. Listen to what Trump says
here. Play this clip. It's been an issue for years. It's been, people have talked about it for years,
but I have a lot of respect for China and I have a lot of respect for President Xi.
When's the last time you talked to President Xi? I speak to him. It doesn't matter when,
but I speak to him. Have you talked to Zelensky recently? Not too long ago, yeah. Also, we learned that
Donald Trump had been meeting with Laura Loomer in the White House when he announced his tariffs
against the world. Laura Loomer, a 9-11 conspiracy theorist. Laura Loomer is someone who said that
if Vice President Kamala Harris were to have won the election, it would make the White House smell like curry. She says hateful, ugly, disgusting things. I don't even want to repeat a lot of the
things that she said, but Donald Trump here on Air Force One said that, yes, he takes advice
and guidance from Laura Loomer, including who to hire and who to fire. Play this clip.
I'd say also, can you tell us a little bit about your meeting with Laura Loomer I saw her yesterday.
She makes recommendations of things and people.
And sometimes I listen to those recommendations like I do with everybody.
I listen to everybody and then I make a decision.
But I saw her yesterday, she was at the ceremony.
And she'll always have something to say, usually very constructive.
What did she recommend?
She recommended certain people for jobs.
Adding to the administration, not firing?
Well, she'll recommend that too.
But yesterday she recommended some people for jobs.
Did she have anything to do with the NSC aides who were ousted?
No.
Do you know how many, sir?
Do you know how many from the NSC?
Not many.
Was it five, a dozen?
I really don't know.
There were a couple.
Who did Laura recommend to hire?
Well, I don't want to say that, but she's recommended some good people over the years.
She's been in the party a long time.
She's done a good job.
Now, we also learned that Donald Trump did, in fact, fire three individuals working for
the National Security Council after Laura Loomer met with Donald Trump.
In otherwise normal times, it would be pretty shocking and probably disqualifying. No,
not probably. It would be disqualifying to just say that. But in the Trump regime,
this is just another story in the mounting chaos and catastrophe and cataclysm that this regime brings.
Donald Trump is asked about Elon Musk.
Will Doge continue to destroy the government and destroy the federal workers after Elon leaves?
Trump says yes.
Play this clip.
Even when you go, even when Elon leaves, it goes back to being CEO.
Will Doge stick around in some kind of capacity?
Yeah, it'll still, Doge, Doge himself, yeah.
What does that look like?
Just so you understand, I don't want to get it wrong, I want Elon to stay as long as possible.
Number one, I like him, number two, he's doing a great job, number three, he is a patriot,
that's why he's doing this, And he's very cautiously man.
But so I want him to stay as long as possible. But there'll be a point where he's going to have
to leave. And when he does, the secretaries will take totally over and Doge will stay active.
We have a lot of smart people. A lot of those people, I believe, are going to go into the agencies.
Donald Trump is asked about, well, why did these National Security Council staffers get fired?
Why were they let go?
Why are you firing people?
And here's what Donald Trump says.
Sir, can I ask you about the NSC?
How many staffers were let go and why?
Your National Security Council, how many staffers were let go? There was always going to let go of people, people that we don't like or people that we
don't think can do the job or people that may have loyalties to somebody else. You'll always have to.
Donald Trump questioning their loyalty. Really, Donald, you're questioning their loyalty with everything that you and Hegsiff
and Mike Walls and your regime of deplorable individuals have done. That's what you're doing.

Donald Trump then asked about the market crash taking place today. And Trump's response was,
yeah, we expected the market crash.
That's to be expected. Here, play this clip.
Ready for some questions?
Anybody want to buy one? Okay, let's go.
First, we'd love to get your reaction, sir, to what's going on in the financial markets today.
Well, I mean, it's to be expected. We're, this is a patient that was very sick.
We inherited, we really inherited a terrible economy, as you know, with a lot of problems,
including loss of manufacturing and plants closed up all over the country. You know, we've lost 90,000 plants since NAFTA, if you think of that. 90,000. It's not even believable.
And about 6 million jobs.
So it was a sick patient that went through an operation on Liberation Day.
And it's going to be a booming country.
A very booming country. It's going to be amazing, actually.
We see it because we have trillions of dollars committed to come in. Trillions.
Interesting Donald Trump so cavalier about it as well. Also, as we previously had reported in
Donald Trump's post earlier in the day, where Donald Trump said the following,
while the markets were crashing, what, 1,600 points with the Dow, 4, 5% down the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq, Trump goes, this is all in caps, the operation is over, exclamation point, the patient lived and is healing.
The prognosis is that the patient will be far stronger, bigger, better, and more resilient than ever before.
Make America great. Again, that also, as we learned that Donald Trump literally
applied tariffs to an island near Antarctica with no human inhabitants that is just comprised of
penguins. Yes, Donald Trump tariffed penguins. He gave the Taliban an exemption to the tariff
formula that he hit Europe and our other allies with. Yes, and Donald Trump also tariffed a United States military base. Donald Trump is asked
more questions. Let me show you this too. As Donald Trump said that this was to be expected,
and he said that we inherited a terrible economy. We did not, as we've always pointed out before.
And as Gillette points out here, unemployment was 4.1%, the lowest in 50 years. He inherited that. GDP growth was 2.4%.
Inflation was under 3%, headed to 2%. We had the number one economy in the world under former
President Biden. 16.2 million jobs created, 40,000 infrastructure projects going up. GDP was leading
the world. Unemployment down, job growth hitting records.
Donald Trump is then asked about people losing their 401ks and life savings.
Here's what Donald Trump says.
Play this clip.
Yes, sir.
We have a very good dialogue going.
Sir?
And I think he was very happy about how we treated them on tariffs.
Sir, a lot of people were upset about how that went.
The Daily Mail. Sir, a lot of people were upset about how their 401ks were doing.
Do you have investments?
I think our markets are going to boom.
We've got to give it a little chance.
We're taking in jobs, and we're taking in industry, and we're taking in trillions of dollars.
I think our markets are going to boom.
We've got to give it a little bit of time.
But they've already started construction on numerous plants.
Soon there'll be many, many plants.
All over the country they're going in.
So you gotta give that a little time.
I haven't checked my 401k.
Thank you very much.
Donald Trump is then asked if he hopes
to do deals with the countries,
and Donald Trump gives a bunch of gibberish word salad. Let's play it.
And it's going to make our country very rich.
What are you open to deals with these countries if they're calling you?
Well, it depends. If somebody said that we're going to give you something that's so phenomenal, as long as they're giving us something that's good for instance with tick tock as an example we have a situation with tick tock
where china will probably say will approve a deal but will you do something on the tariff
the tariffs give us great power to negotiate always have i've used them very well in the
first administration as you saw but now we're taking it to a whole new level because it's a worldwide situation.
And it's very exciting to see.
And what it's done is driven a lot of great companies to our country.
And you see construction starting all over.
I already got a couple of calls from Lee Zeldin from Environmental. He's got some big plans to approve. Like really, Mr. President.
Donald Trump then talks about how China may want to give him a call now to try to cut a deal on
TikTok. This is what this maniac is talking about. Let's play it.
On your earlier comment about TikTok, you said that the Chinese might be willing to
agree to approve that sale
in exchange for tariff relief. Is that something that you've floated to them or you've heard from
them? I'm just using that as an example. Let's say we had a problem with TikTok and let's say
China wasn't going to approve. We could use tariffs in order to get an approval.
Thank you. The deadline is set.
You can have something in return.
What's the update on the deal negotiations
for TikTok? We're very close to a deal
with a very good group of people
for TikTok. Larry Ellison and Oracle?
Is it multiple investors? Multiple.
And then did the last minute
kind of throw things into disarray for you
or do you have your strategy completely
locked up on who's going to... Which last minute?
Which? On acquiring TikTok.
No, I think that China maybe will call and say Trump then attacks Europe, which got some of the harshest treatment by Donald Trump
on these tariffs against the world.
Let's play it.
And you're losing 2,000, 3,000 sometimes a week.
So we're spearheading the drive to get it done.
Europe has not been successful in dealing with President Putin, but I think I will be
successful. Donald Trump is asked how long it will take to get manufacturing here. And Trump says
it will be at least a two year process. That's first off, it's going to take longer than that,
Donald, but that's kind of the problem here that you've now created such uncertainty in the
marketplace. Are you going to take the tariffs away?
Are you not going to take the tariffs away?
No one knows what to do.
We're seeing factories engage in mass layoffs right now.
We're set for another crash likely tomorrow of the economy.
Play this clip.
Like, really, Mr. President.
How long will it take you in manufacturing,
in American manufacturing, to where you would like to see it?
Well, let's say it's a two-year process. They start a plant and they're big plants.
We're giving them approval to also, in many cases, to build the electric facility with it.
So you have electric generation and the plant and they're big plants. Now, the good news is there's a lot of money for them and they can build them fast, but they're still very big plants. So
I'd always say it would take a year and a half to two years.
Mr. President.
And there you have it, folks.
