Refreshingly simple. Donald Trump just wrapped up a disastrous press conference in the Oval Office on Monday morning. He said that he is called the President of Europe now. He says that's what they call him now, the President of Europe. Here, play this clip. President of Europe, which is an honor. I like Europe, and I like those people. They're good people. They're great leaders.

Then he points to the gold World Cup trophy, which he basically stole from FIFA. And he goes, look, they gave me this gold trophy. By the way, throughout this press conference, I want you to look as Donald Trump tries to cover up his hands. You'll see that he's got these massive health issues that he's dealing with. You see all of the discoloration, and it almost looks like his hand is decomposing. But watch what he says about his trophy. Here, play this clip. You saw the World Cup was here the other day, and come to think of it, there's your trophy for the World Cup.

In fact, it's solid gold. That's actually solid gold so heavy that some of the people in this room wouldn't be able to lift it. I think what I'm going to do is place it right above the angel, right over there. That's solid gold, too. We're going to put it right up there. Look at it. There's a solid gold trophy. They know how to get to me, you know.

I like the angel better, to be honest with you. So. then he says that he's not able to resolve the war in Ukraine because there are issues with people's personalities we have big personality conflicts he says and that's the issue here play this clip and the one i thought would be easiest frankly was going to be russia and ukraine but that turns out to be some big personality conflicts it's one of those things but we're going to get that stopped eventually we're going to get that stop to seven thousand soldiers died last week. Think of that, 7,000.

Then he says that he now calls the Department of Defense, the Department of War, because we need to be going on the offense, and we need to be invading. Here, play this clip. All right? That's coming to be, sir. You let me know if you want to do it. I think Department of War,

it just sounded bad. He said, sir, in behalf of the Department of Defense, defense, I don't want to be defense only. We want defense, but we want offense, too, if that's okay. So you'll make a decision. But, you know, As Department of War, we won everything. We won everything. And I think we're going to have to go back to that.

Then he whines about how he gets 97% negative stories against him. And he says that he does 97% positive things. All of his policies have been great. But he gets 97% negative stories, he says. So he's whining about that during the press conference. Let's play it. Everybody before me is happy what I'm doing. Most of you won't say that because you're radical left.

The newspapers are so dishonest. The press is totally dishonest, but that's all right. We've gotten used to it. And we want to landslide. So they obviously lost their power. I mean, it's impossible to imagine that when you get 97% negative stories, purposely negative stories, even though you've done 97% positive things. Then if you're wondering what's the point of this press conference, Ben, it's a great question.

No one really knows. He's apparently signing executive. orders to prosecute people who burn flags. And he then talks about potentially sending the National Guard and the military to invade other states after Washington, D.C. and California. So he then starts talking about how he has a friend who lives in Los Angeles. And this friend just leaves the garage door open in L.A. To allow people to steal the things so that the garage door doesn't get damaged.

And what the hell are you even talking about here, play this clip? I've ever seen before. Nobody lives like that. I have another friend. He has a garage. And in order to save his garage door, he leaves it open so the people can just walk into his garage, take whatever they want and leave. But all the cars are, so many cars, I've been told this by many people, stars, big people,

they leave their doors open so the doors aren't destroyed by these criminals. All over Los Angeles is taking place. And you know that. I mean, you've heard that. Christy, could you say if you... You know, it's so imbecilic. Like, it's just so stupid, the stuff that he's saying. The fact that there's people who want to normalize this,

it just baffles me. Then he goes, yeah, also another friend I have in Beverly Hills, in addition to the friend who leaves their garage door open to let people steal because they rather do that that harm the garage door. I have friends. They leave their trunk door open so that people can steal from inside the car.

car so that the trunk isn't damaged. What are you even? What are you talking about? Like, how dumb is this? Who are these friends of your? Are these your imaginary friends, Donald? Here, play this clip. Thank you very much. See, you know, in Los Angeles, uh, Beverly Hills is, you know, great place. I have a house there. I had a house there. I used to stay a lot of time, spend a lot of time there. And a great place. Do you know that I have friends, they leave their trunk open for their car because they don't want, they know they're going to be vandalized, uh, they don't want the trunk ripped off in order for them to steal what's in the back. They leave the doors open. So when they go into steal the radio or whatever they take that they don't rip off the door.

They leave the doors totally open. So the criminals, when they go and open the door, they're to break the windows and kill the car in order to steal whatever it is in the car that they're looking for. And that's, uh, at a level that nobody's ever seen before. No, as you also may know Abrago Garcia was released. He got to be with his family for a few days, but he was arrested earlier today by ICE. They want to send him to Uganda now because he refused to plead guilty

to a phony charge that they're trying to prosecute him for now that he's been brought into the United States. And then Donald Trump starts calling Abrago Garcia a wife-beater. And then Pam Bondi, the attorney general, basically calls him a human trafficker and a terrorist, essentially. Here's what she says.

By the way, this violates a gag order that's in the case. She's not allowed to say this. It's so reckless for an attorney general to be saying this about an active case. It's illegal, frankly, in my opinion. But here, play this clip. He beat the hell out of his wife. His wife is afraid to even talk about him. She's been mauled by this animal.

And, you know, through a system of liberal courts, you know, he's doing things. But, no, we have that under control. And Pam has got that very much. much under control. Do you want to comment on it? No, no, we've got him under control. He will no longer terrorize our country. He's currently charged with human smuggling, including

children. The guy needs to be in prison. He doesn't need to be on the streets like all these liberals want him to be. If we want to talk about actual sex traffickers, it's not a Brago Garcia. It's people like Geelaine Maxwell, who the Trump regime

has given immunity and given all these like awards to basically. And it's the covering up of the Epstein files, if you want to talk about actual sex trafficking covering up. It's happening right there in the Oval Office right before our eyes as we're watching this. Then Donald Trump starts attacking former President Biden and he calls him an idiot. Again, just who behaves like this? I mean, this is Donald Trump. Here play this clip. What they've done to our country, these people that circle this this moron that we had behind this desk what they've done to our country is unthinkable it's unthinkable i mean if you

right before this press conference took place donald trump posted some conspiracy theory about south korea he goes what's going on in south korea seems like a purge or revolution we can't have that and do business there i'm seeing the new president today at the white house thank you for your attention to this matter so a reporter asks him what are you talking about with south korea what does that even mean. And Donald Trump's like, I don't know. I've read a few things. It may not be true and may be true or not true. Dude, you're the president of the United States. What the hell are you posting? Here, play this clip. Very nasty, horrible thing. Mr. President, could you please elaborate on your post on South Korea? What were you referring to?

Well, I heard that there were raids on churches over the last few days, very vicious raids on churches by the new government in South Korea, that they even went into our military basis. and got information, and these probably shouldn't have done that. But I heard bad things. I don't know if it's true or not. I'll be finding out. As you know, your new president's coming and just a couple of hours coming here.

I look forward to meeting them. But we won't stand for that. I just won't stand for that.

It may be coming to me from some

bizarre occult in South Korea that's giving it to me that has alternative intentions. But I'm just going to go and say it as I speak with the leader of South Korea. Screw our alliances and our trading relationships and stability in the world. I'm just going to say things from the Oval Office. Again, this behavior can't be normalized. Then Donald Trump says that he has no problem ordering the National Guard troops into American cities, regardless of what governors want. Play this clip. Prepared to order National Guard troops, though, into American cities if those governors don't request the federal equipment. I am, but I also think that, look, as Chicago, everybody knows how bad it is. Everybody's standing there, and as we know, you don't have to be doing any

studies, they should be saying, please. Then you have Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense, or as Donald Trump now calls the Secretary of War, says, the morale of our troops can never be higher. They love the mission. They love the mission of being in United States cities. Not what our troops are for. To invade American cities, the hell are we talking about here? Here, play this clue. Defending the nation's capital and ensuring it is safe and beautiful and working with law enforcement, to Mr. President, let me tell you, the morale of the troops getting out there talking to them. They love this mission. They're grateful to be doing it, whether they're D.C. National Guard or other state national guards. And at your direction as well, sir, it's just common sense to make sure they're armed as well.

And so they were rolling out of shooting their armed, capable of defending themselves and others of need be, supporting law enforcement, and we're proud to be there, sir. Well, look at the mission you just accomplished with. Then Donald Trump, he spends like five minutes doing this. I'm just going to show you a shorter clip of it. where he calls J.B. Pritzker, the governor of Illinois, a slob. In other clips, Donald Trump says he needs to go to the gym. You need to go to the gym. And you need to get checked out whatever the hell is on your hand, Donald. That's what you also need to do.

Donald Trump says, they all say that I'm a dictator. I'm not a dictator. I could be a dictator, but I'm not a dictator. Here, play this clip. It would be good to work together. So I'm thinking about, you know, when I have some slob like Britsch, criticizing us before we even go there. I made the statement that next should be Chicago,

because as you all know, Chicago is a killing field right now. And they don't acknowledge it. And they say, we don't need them. Freedom, freedom, freedom. He's a dictator. A lot of people are saying maybe we like a dictator. I don't like a dictator. I'm not a dictator.

I'm a man with great common sense and a smart person. Then Donald Trump says that Biden wasn't even alive when he was in office and thus all of Biden's pardons should be eliminated because Biden was never really alive. Here, play this clip. Because the person that ran it said he spoke to it briefly twice about nothing. That means that all those pardons that he gave to some very bad people, very unpatriotic people, very evil people. It looks to me like those partners are worthless because, number one, you shouldn't use an auto pen very specifically. But if you do, it has to be a very good reason.

And they have to know that the president wanted it. The president didn't want this. The president didn't know he was alive, okay? He never approved any of this stuff. He wasn't for open borders and all the other things. He was never for open borders. I've known Biden a long time. He was never very sharp.

But he was never in favor of open borders and all of the other things he did to destroy our country. Let's go. Lastly, sir, this is an executive order on four. Then Donald Trump lies and claims that he stopped all of these wars, multiple wars, seven wars, three wars, ten wars. He says that he likes black people because he stopped the war in Rwanda and Congo. He claims he did that. That's how he says he loves black people.

He says deep dark Africa, he says, deep dark Africa is what he says. And then he tries to take credit for stopping the war between India and Pakistan. That would have been a nuclear war. So you have deep dark Africa, he says he says, the war. between Indian Pakistan, which would have been, there would have been nukes. He saved the world, everybody. What are you talking about? You didn't stop any of these wars. Indian Pakistan, the Indian prime minister and foreign minister even say you have nothing to do with it. You've destroyed the relationship between the United States and India, but play this clip.

We stop them all. We stop three wars. Go to Africa. They like to say, oh, you know, we say, I love black people. And they, and I did great with the vote with the black people. But they say, He's a racist. He's a racist. I said, really? For 35 years, a war raged between Rwanda and the Republic of the Congo. And it was a vicious war. Nine million people were killed with machetes, largely. Hatchets, machetes. That went on for 30, more than 30 years, but 34, 35 years. And I stopped it. In fact, the presidents are coming in a week or two to sign the, we have the foreign ministers that's all signed the war stopped. But I got it stopped and saved a lot of. lives to Congo as deep into deepest of darkest Africa I got that war stopped nobody else could

have done that we did a lot of jobs with a lot of wars were stopped that nobody thought would even be possible now I'll tell you what the war with India and Pakistan that was the next level that was going to be a nuclear war they already shot down seven jets that was raging and I said you guys want to do trade we're not doing any trade we're not doing anything with you if keep fighting you get it you get 24 hours to settle it they said well there's no more war going and i used that on numerous occasions trade i used trade i used other i used whatever you had to use but we got seven of them stopped and then of course this press conference ends like they always do the person has to give Donald Trump something gold you have to give him an offering so here the

head of the u.s. marshal services gives him a golden badge here you go and here's a gold badge. It's a key that unlocks handcuffs that we put on migrants and citizens, Donald. Here, play this clip. Law enforcement are out there every single matter. Yes. Thank you for putting me in charge of this surge as the director of the United States Marshal Service. It's the oldest law enforcement agency. It was created in 1789. So on behalf of all the federal law enforcement agencies that we're working with and those that have yet to do. joined the team, we thought it was only appropriate to present you with an honorary United States Marshal Service badge. And this badge comes with this little item right here, which is a handcuff key, Mr. President, because you continue through your policies and your efforts with your staff to unhandcuff law enforcement officers all over this nation. And I can tell you personally that they thank you for that. Thank you. That's beautiful. You can continue unhandcuffing law

enforcement. That's a very great honor. I'll save that and put it someplace up, which is important. Thank you very much, God. I appreciate it. Thank you very much. Thank you. That's very nice. Thank you. Well, we love those people. And remember, the whole time you see him covering up his hand during this press conference you see all of the like trophies that he stole you see the other trophy in the background that he stole from the FIFA club World Cup so he's got the FIFA World Cup one right next to him which he goes it's so heavy you can't even pick it up he's got that one but then he has the one behind him which is the one he stole recently in New Jersey the FIFA Club World Cup one which he stole as well the original one and then the teams had to act or the players had to get like fake

versions because Trump actually stole it. So you have that honorary badge. Play that. You saw that clip. And then he starts attacking Gavin Newsom and saying he's an idiot. We saved it. We brought in the water. We brought in all the water. The fires. I put out the fires. Here play this clip. We saved Los Angeles and all we did is get criticized by this idiot that's running the state into the ground, right? Where people are leaving. He should be thinking. He should be thank youness, and he should be requesting us to be there. It's so utterly deranged. After the fires were 100% contained, Donald Trump ordered the Army Corps of Engineers

to go to like Northern California and dump out 2 billion gallons from our reservoirs in California onto farmland that's nowhere even connected to Southern California, wasted the water, claim that he put out fires that were already contained at that point, and was nowhere even connected to it. The guy's literally a psychotic individual who's clearly rotting before our eyes. Also, just to fact check, every time that Donald Trump claims that this is the first time in D.C., there's been no murders in a week. From February to March, there were 16 days of no murders. In April, there were seven days of no murders.

In May, there was eight days of no murders. In August, there were eight days in the murders. Essentially, every month so far in D.C., there's been a week or week and a half period of no murders. Okay, because it's at a 30-year crime low. If you want to actually deal with addressing crime, maybe go to the red states and red cities where crime is at its highest. Well, anyway, that was Donald Trump's disastrous press conference this morning. We'll keep you posted with more, but how outrageous was that? Hit subscribe.
