We are now learning that Donald Trump's been telling his staff on this Middle East trip that the reason he absolutely needs this gold-plated $400 million 747 jet from the Qataris is that he just feels humiliated when he has to meet the royal families of these Middle East nations who are giving his family all of this money and he has to go around in the regular Air Force One. He says that he needs a gold-plated Air Force One so that his jets can look like their royal jets and that would make him feel stronger when he meets with them. This is the

latest reporting from The Atlantic. I'm not making that up, folks. And why would you think I am? I mean, that's Donald Trump's personality to a T. Trump has told aides and advisors that it is humiliating to him when he has to show up and fly around in an outdated plane and that foreign leaders are laughing at him when he shows up to these various summits in older versions of the Air Force One. You think that's why they're laughing at you? Maybe they know how weak and pathetic you are, that they know that you are an easy mark to manipulate. They know like Cutter, whose entire annual GDP is $200 billion a year, that all they have to do is tell you that they're going to invest $1.2 trillion in the United States, like six times what their actual GDP is.

And you'll believe that or you won't even care because you're a con artist to begin with. You'll then give them all of the benefits that they want. Meanwhile, they're out there funding Hamas. You'll be out there doing what the Saudis want while you attack our allies in Europe, while you attack our ally in Canada, while you attack our allies abroad. You want to know, Donald, what people are laughing at. They're laughing at when you send emails like this. This is the email from Donald Trump to his supporters this morning. Please open this email if you love me. Open this right now if you love me. Do you love me? He sent this one on May 10th, but he sends this one like every other day. Do you love me? Open this email. That's what the

president of the United States is sending to grift off his supporters. Then, of course, it asks for financial contributions to him. Seriously, Donald Trump is out there posting things like this, like he loves being in royal palaces. I mean, do you see how gaudy he's made the Oval Office where he painted like fake gold statues around the Oval Office? Here's what Donald Trump is posting this morning. America first, am I right? Trump attends state dinner at Lausanne Palace in Qatar. Oh, Donald, you and the regime are at Lausanne Palace in Qatar while American people can't even afford groceries, while you promise to bring prices down and they are going up, while you promise to make housing more affordable and housing is less affordable, while you've utterly destroyed the bond market right now, the 10, 20, 30-year treasury yields, they may hit a five handle.

They're heading towards 5%, which is going to screw with mortgage rates. And by the way, you know what Walmart just announced, Donald? The tariffs are more. This is what the Walmart CFO said this morning. So while you were out there in Lucille Palace, Donald, I know, living the lavish life with the royals in Qatar who give you bribes. The tariffs, this is from the Walmart CFO, the tariffs are more than any retailer can absorb. It's more than any supplier can absorb. And so I'm

concerned that the consumer is going to start seeing higher prices. You'll begin to see that likely towards the tail end of this month, and then certainly much more in June. Also, one of the things that we've been talking about, and other analysts like Brousselis is saying it as well, the bond market is not buying it. It being Trump, the Trump regime fraud. And that is because fixed income investors are sniffing out the logic of economic populism amid a move toward trade protectionism, which strongly implies higher inflation and rising long-term yields. You want to know what the European Union and Japan think about you, Donald, as you go on

these foolish trips to the Middle East and Japan think about you, Donald, as you go on these foolish trips to the Middle East and announce your fake deals, as you announced your fake deal with the United Kingdom, where the only thing that actually came out of that fake deal was that Jaguar, Land Rover, and Rolls-Royce got preferential treatment over American car manufacturers, Donald. In comments before a European Union meeting of trade ministers in Brussels, he said the European Union should not jump too fast. The bloc, he said, did not need a quick deal with Donald. And that seemed to be the sentiment of others such as Japan. EU ministers aim far higher than that British-U.S. trade deal.

European Union trade ministers want a more ambitious trade deal than what took place with the U.K. because they want to do a fake deal with you, Donald. You want to know why people are laughing at you as well, Donald? While you were in Qatar, this was the speech that you gave. You talked about that you're not a huge believer in stealth because you don't like the shapes. You said you don't like the shapes. The hell are you talking about? Play this clip. And so I want to do that. And sometimes, you know, stealth, they do stealth. I'm not a huge believer in stealth because stealth is basically a lot of it's designed into shape. And, you know, I'm sure you maybe think, but also if that's the case, they're going to figure it out pretty fast, I think.

So you're going to design an ugly plane for stealth reasons. And then six months later, they're going to figure out this and then you're stuck with a plane. Now we're doing, we're doing a super F-22 and we're going to be going with it pretty quickly. Can we geek out for a minute on something? I think it's going to be helpful for you. It's called Fatty 15. Its co-founder, Dr. Stephanie Van Watson, discovered C-15 as the first essential fatty acid to be found in 90 years while working with the US Navy to improve the health and welfare of aging dolphins. It's pretty simple. Essential nutrients keep our cells healthy, which keeps us healthy. So if you want to get sciencey about it,

studies show that C15, it works by strengthening our cells, improving our mitochondrial function, and protecting us against damaging free radicals. So if you feel like, how could I stop aging faster, or I'm sleeping poorly, or feeling sluggish, the bottom line is that many of us are deficient in C15, which results in weaker cells, which results in those things. So, THADDY15 is the Science Fact Award-winning vegan and pure C15 supplement that steps in and helps. It works in multiple ways.

It repairs age-related damage to cells. It protects them from future breakdowns. It boosts mitochondrial energy output and activates pathways in the body that help regulate sleep, mood, natural repair mechanisms that support our overall health. So deeper sleep, smoother functioning joints, healthier hair, skin, and nails. That's essential. And the C15 helps here. And Fatty 15 delivers.

So it comes in these gorgeous reusable glass bamboo jars and refill capsules that are shipped to your door quarterly in pouches made from recycled materials i love that fatty 15 is on a mission to replenish your set your c15 levels and restore your long term health you can get an additional 15 off their 90day subscription starter kit by going to fatty15.com slash Midas and using the code Midas at checkout.

And you went on to say that we're no longer losing $1 trillion because you paused all trade to China for one month and therefore we're not losing a trillion dollars. You have no clue what you're

even talking about here at Playlist Club. Fund is just pay off debt. We're making a lot of money. We had a situation six months ago, we were losing $5 billion a day on trade. Now we're making money on trade. Don't forget, we were losing a trillion dollars to China. So we essentially went cold turkey with China for a period of a month. Therefore, we weren't losing a trillion dollars. You know, I think that's pretty simple, Scott, right? Scott did a great job over there. They made a deal. They have great relationships with China. I mean, is he the biggest laughingstock or what? I mean, look at when he said this. We're a laughingstock. Play this clip. The job you've done is second to none. You look at this. It's so beautiful. As a construction person, I'm seeing perfect marble. This is what they call perfecto. And just a great job you've done,

and what a beautiful place. And we appreciate those camels. I haven't seen camels like that in a long time. And that was some greeting. We appreciate it very much. Now, there were supposed to be very important diplomatic discussions in Turkey today, where Putin originally said that he wanted to negotiate directly with Zelensky. Zelensky said, I'll negotiate directly with Putin in Turkey. Donald Trump, you show up. Donald Trump is not showing up to Turkey. And Donald Trump claims because he's not showing up to Turkey, that's why Putin is not showing up to Turkey. So this is the art of the deal. After telling Zelensky he

should show up because y'all were going to show up, now you don't show up. Oh, a master at work, a master at work. Here, play this clip. Jennifer, go ahead. No, I didn't anticipate. I actually said, why would he go if I'm not going? Because I wasn't going to go. I wasn't planning to. I would go, but I wasn't planning to go. And I said, I don't think he's going to go if I don't go. And that's turned out to be right.

But we have people there. Marco, as you know, is doing a fantastic job. Marco's there, Secretary of State. And we have people there. But I don't I don't I didn't think it was possible for of State, and we have people there. But I don't, I don't, I didn't think it was possible for Putin to go if I'm not there. Jennifer? Here's Donald Trump talking about F-35s. He says he wants to call them F-55. He loves to, like, name things. I'm going to call them F-55s, and maybe we put four engines on them. I like four

engines, maybe eight engines, but they look ugly. What are you talking about? Play this clip. Great, great display. So we're going to see that. But one of the things for the people that are interested in the military that I asked to look into, the F-35, we're doing an upgrade, a simple upgrade, but we're also doing an F--55 i'm going to call it an f-55 and that's going to be a substantial upgrade but it's going to be also with two engines because f-35 has a single engine i don't like single engines even this man he's the best in the world at engines but on occasion i know you won't admit this, if an engine goes out, it's nice to have two, three, or four.

That's why I like the 747. It's got four. But today they're getting very big, and it's a little more cost-saving to have two very, very big ones. But no matter how good, you know, they tell me, Larry, the engine will never go out. Well, I think it goes out. Two more pieces of data that I want to give you this morning. Number one, the Trump Kushner grift in Serbia just hit a snag. They're trying to build a hotel in Serbia. Trump Kushner Hotel Serbia hits a snag over an alleged forgery. Serbian authorities say an official admitted to forging documents allowing

a protected site in Belgrade to be demolished and replaced with a Trump hotel. Yes, so Trump wanted to demolish a historic site using forged documents in Serbia. Does that shock you there? And then here's Donald Trump's post this morning. Some all caps. You can't even read these things because they're just so incoherent. I mean, just physically look at this post. Big case today in the United States Supreme Court, birthright citizenship was not meant for people taking vacations to become permanent citizens of the United States and bring their families with them all the time laughing at the suckers that we are. For Donald Trump, I just want you to think about this guy. Everybody in his mind, everybody's laughing at him. Oh, they're calling us suckers, suckers, suckers. They're not going

to like my jet. They're not going to like my jet. America was the most powerful nation in the world. We were on top of the world. We're where all of the countries put their money. Why would they be laughing at us and then trusting the United States with their money? Why was the dollar the world's currency? Why were our bond markets so strong? Why was it that foreign investors would always want to buy homes in the United States. Is that because they were laughing at us? It's because they're laughing at you, Donald. It's because you're a pathetic,

vile, piece of trash, felon, sexual abuser, fraud, bankruptor. Maybe they're laughing at you, but not what our country is. And now they're laughing at our country because of you. You're trying to tamper with the Supreme Court's decision-making today. Just stay the hell at Lucille Palace in Qatar. Why don't you just do that? Because that's what you seem to like. You know, if you don't like our constitution, look, maybe people go, I don't like birthright citizenship. By the way, I'm fine with it. I like it. But let's say people don't like it. You know how you deal with it.

Maybe you pass a law. Maybe you pass a constitutional amendment. Maybe you go through a process. That's due. Due process. Why don't we call it due process? Why don't we go through the system that we have in America versus you signing some phony executive order and decreeing things? That's my view today. Hit subscribe.
