WHAT JUST HAPPENED IN THIS TRUMP INTERVIEW?!

[0:00] The reoccurring story now and even mainstream outlets is, okay, yes, Trump has always been [0:06] unstable and unhinged, but there's something rapidly changing and getting a lot worse about [0:13] his mental state. And you can really notice that when he tries to do extended interviews with [0:18] anyone now. He's all over the place. He's scrambled in the mind. He says stuff that [0:24] doesn't make any sense. And then obviously, substantively, we'll say very disturbing things. [0:30] This is one of those segments where there's so many different clips I have to show you. [0:33] I didn't know exactly what order to put them all in, but let's just jump right into it and [0:37] watch through because it just, the whole thing is out of control. And the fact that this is [0:41] the commander in chief, this is the guy steering the ship is genuinely terrifying. Here's some [0:50] trying to make a point about late justice Ginsburg. Oh, look, it happens to justice [0:55] Ginsburg. So, look, it happens to Justin's, Justin's Bieber Ginsburg, gin and tonic, just [1:06] random. Look, it happens. Look, it happens. What does this mean? [1:09] Look, it happens to Justice Ginsburg. She was not exactly a young woman. The election was taken. [1:17] They had a Democrat who could have appointed a liberal justice. And the liberals do stick [1:22] together. That's one thing about those justices. They stick together like glue, not like the [1:27] Republicans. But she decided that she was going to live forever. And about two minutes after the [1:33] election, she went out and I got to appoint somebody. So, you know, you make the case that [1:41] at a certain time. What? Let me take that down. What even did he mean? Look at Justice Ginsburg. [1:52] Now, that's not even what he said, but OK. What was the first sentence again? Look, it happens to [1:57] look, it happens. Justice Ginsburg. She was not exactly a young woman. The election was taken. [2:06] What does that mean? They had a Democrat who could have appointed a liberal justice. [2:11] About two minutes after the election, she went out. Like for coffee? What do you mean she went out? [2:19] Is that a euphemism for she passed away? I guess passed away is a euphemism for she died. But [2:24] she didn't die after the election. Two minutes after. She died in September of 2020 when Trump was [2:32] president before the election. So that's not even the correct timeline. And how could he forget that? [2:38] Now, he then says, and I got to appoint someone. So somewhere in his brain, he realizes the series of [2:44] events was that he got to appoint someone before Biden won the election and took over. And that was [2:50] a very notable event. But the way he words it is as if he doesn't know when exactly Ginsburg passed [2:56] away, even though this is like one of the most famous moments in history. [3:00] I know that. I just, you're telling me now for the first time. She led an amazing life. What else can [3:24] you say? She was an amazing woman. Whether you agreed or not, she was an amazing woman who led an [3:31] amazing life. I'm actually sad to hear that. I am sad to hear that. So he was at a campaign rally. You [3:41] would be able to remember it couldn't have possibly been two minutes after the election if you were at a [3:45] campaign rally in your own presidency. And one of the most notable events of your last presidency. [3:50] But again, he's all disoriented. And that is honestly an iconic moment. He's walking, [3:56] blue team, baby. The song starts perfectly. And then they tell it to him that he just flexes both [4:03] of his hands as much as possible, because obviously he's nervous. Then again, on the timelines or the [4:09] understanding of logic, you have this. This guy is a bad chairman.

[4:29] Really bad chairman. And I was surprised when Biden extended him, to be honest with you. But [4:35] he did. Interest rates should be much. So he's talking about Fed chair Jerome Powell. But you're [4:41] surprised Biden extended him. You're the one who originally appointed him. And Trump never really [4:45] contends with that. Sometimes he'll say, I don't know why Biden appointed him, but then he means [4:49] extended his tenure, even though Trump was the original one. You can take that down to appoint him. [4:54] So that's strange. He gets asked the most basic question in politics to a president. [5:00] What is your domestic agenda? What is your domestic agenda? That's like [5:07] the most boilerplate, easy to respond to question ever, because that should be what you're thinking [5:13] about constantly. Let's see his attempt at an answer. [5:17] Sir, what are your top priorities now for the economy for the rest of the year? [5:22] To be honest, we are doing so well. You look at this. I hit the 50,000 Dow mark, which everyone said [5:29] couldn't happen in four years. I did it in one year. I hit the 7,000 S&P mark in less than one [5:36] year, which was a number, as you know, you reported it. They said, if at the end of four years, you hit [5:41] those numbers. I did it at the end of a year. And I said, now we have to. [5:45] The Dow, I almost can swear my life on this, partially because we can't ever know, lol, would be [5:52] higher if Biden had just stayed president or if Kamala had taken over. So then it's weird to take [5:59] credit for something that has already backslid. He says the Dow hit 50,000, and it's not at that [6:05] right now since the war pushed it down. It's a very strange, and his response essentially is, [6:12] I don't have a domestic agenda. I did everything perfectly already. That's what he's saying. She [6:17] said, what's your domestic agenda? And he's like, well, the Dow is already at 50,000, even though it's [6:22] not. Do a little bit of a turn, a detour to a place called Iran, and we have to stop them from [6:28] ever having a nuclear weapon. And if you told me that in the midst of it, we would have a stock [6:34] market that's almost as good as it was two months ago, just about very close. And yeah, this is the [6:41] other thing he kept doing throughout the interview. You can take that down, which is like taking credit [6:48] for things not being as bad as he thought they would be if he started this war. So instead of [6:54] comparing it to what it would have been without the war, he compares it to how bad it should have [7:01] been. It reminds me of COVID whenever he would say, we only have 15 cases. It's soon to be zero. [7:06] Many people said we were going to have more. And then it all of a sudden is 100,000 cases. And then [7:11] he's like, listen, people thought we'd have a million cases by now. We're doing fine. And then we got [7:15] well over a million cases, two million, and then ultimately over a million deaths. And he's like, [7:20] people thought we're going to have 10 million deaths. So like a million is not even a big deal. [7:24] It's that goalpost moving and you going, at least in that case, he didn't control the pandemic. [7:30] He could have handled it better, but he didn't decide for it to start. In this case, he literally [7:34] decided for the war to start. So then don't make us give you credit for you thinking that the decision [7:38] you made was going to be more disastrous. When I made the decision, I thought it was going to be even [7:43] worse than it is. And so, hey, high fives to me. And then he kind of gets tripped up on thinking [7:49] about the many different things you can call Hormuz. Do we still have the same relationship [7:53] with Italy right now and Georgia Maloney? No, no, no. She's been negative. Anybody that turned us down [8:01] for helping with this Iran situation, we do not have the same relationship. Just so you know, [8:08] Italy gets a lot of oil from the strait. You can call it the strait of Hormuz or the [8:14] Hormuz strait. I said, which is better? They said either is okay, but you can call it either one. [8:20] My question is, why is Hormuz so straight? Why can't it be bicurious Hormuz? No one's ever asked [8:29] this question. Why would you waste any moments, especially what was that like 20 seconds going, [8:35] some people call it the strait of Hormuz, but you could also call it the Hormuz strait. And I also [8:39] hear people say the straits of Hormuz or the Hormuz straits. It's sort of like whatever you want [8:44] to do. It's so interesting. Why are you even wasting time talking about that? Anybody that turned us down [8:48] for helping with this Iran situation, we do not have the same relationship. Just so you know, [8:56] Italy gets a lot of oil from the strait. You can call it the strait of Hormuz or the [9:01] Hormuz strait. I said, which is better? They said, either is okay, but you can call it either [9:07] one. The only thing you can't call it is the Trump strait. They don't like that idea. By the way, [9:12] speaking of that, I did a thing that people like very much except for Mexico. I took the Gulf of [9:18] Mexico. We now call it the Gulf of America. Do you see, this is not how normal people's brains work. [9:25] He can't think about a topic. Donald Trump has senioritis. He's me when I got early accepted [9:36] and I was like, well, I got into college. I don't need to do the last two months. I don't need any [9:40] effort. You think he's already kind of checked out? Absolutely. He's talking to the media the way [9:47] that I talked in my AP US history class after I already took the exam. And I was like, I'm not [9:52] reading anymore. Oh, do you want me to answer this question? Oh yeah, the strait of Hormuz, [9:56] also known as the Hormuz strait. It is a strait, which we all know isn't Hormuz. Look, [10:01] that's what he's doing. He's doing like the, you have to write like 500 words. That's him, [10:06] but he didn't read the booklet. Today, I've been directed to write a summary of the geopolitical [10:14] issues related to the strait of Hormuz, which some people call the Hormuz strait. Many people wonder, [10:19] why is the strait so straight and why can't it be a gay Hormuz? And on that note, I would like to [10:25] spend a little time before getting into the aforementioned subject that therefore will be [10:30] thus gotten into henceforth in this essay. I would like to express my support for the LGBTQIA plus [10:38] and all Hormuzes of all sexuality. That does feel like what this is, just filling blank paper. [10:46] Okay, then you have this. We're still racing to the moon? I thought we got there. Didn't we do [11:03] that already? What are we still racing for? What do you want to say about the astronauts who circled [11:07] the moon in Artemis 2? Where's that going? So number one, they were great. I spoke to them as [11:11] they were circling, right? Just after they came out of the dark, that dark cavity. Great. They're [11:17] great. I'm the one that started that program. NASA was closed. It's totally closed. There was grass [11:23] growing on the runways. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, [11:29] before we get into the claim that NASA was closed and Trump reopened it, let me just, why did he [11:37] describe it as coming out of the very dark cavity? And listen, I know a thing or two about dark [11:43] cavities. My doctor came to me and he said, yours is too clogged. I can't get the camera up there. [11:50] Yeah. So people posted a photo of Biden here with the space people. And obviously NASA wasn't closed [12:03] under Biden. I don't know what Trump is talking about there. His brain can't stay on a single [12:10] subject. In this one, he's asked about the Strait of Hormuz again and think about what would necessitate [12:19] him talking about Greenland. Nothing. But he gets there. Did you see Europe is now drafting a program [12:25] and plan to open up the Hormuz Strait without the United States? Oh, that's so sad. We're doing it [12:33] now. By the way, it's opening. The ships are coming back and forth. You just announced that you were [12:37] closing it. So if ships are getting through, you failed at closing it, which was your objective [12:41] right now. But now you're saying, and then you've been asking for Europeans help. And now they're saying [12:48] they're going to make a plan to open it in case you fail and you're mad at them. Oh, without the United [12:54] States, it just shows you how can you have a country? How can you have a group of countries [12:58] with that attitude? Look at Greenland. We should have Greenland to protect the world against Russia [13:05] and China. The mention of it, all of a sudden they get. Yeah. The mention of invading our allies. [13:12] Yeah. That gets, that ruffles some feathers for sure. And you can't make the national security or [13:20] geopolitical advantage argument when we already have military cooperation with Greenland. So we [13:27] already can have military presence there. We do. And if you want to enhance that, that would be fine. [13:33] If you think there's a reason for security purposes, threatening to take their territory [13:38] is unnecessary when our alliance that you're destroying by making that threat already allows [13:43] for us to do the things that are national security interests that you're outlining. And then you have [13:47] this. I had to divert because if I didn't do that right now, you would have Iran with a nuclear [13:54] weapon. And if they know you want to add a nuclear weapon, you would be calling everybody over there, [13:59] sir. And you don't want to do that. Well, you keep saying was, is this war over? I think it's [14:05] close to over. I mean, I view it as very close to over. You know what? If I pulled up stakes right now, [14:12] it would take them 20 years to rebuild that country. And we're not finished. We'll see what happens. [14:18] I think they want to make a deal very badly. Okay. So he calls the war over. Maria Bartiromo asks, [14:28] so then is it over? And he says, yeah, exactly. Because it's almost over. That's why I call it [14:32] over. Almost is never enough. Have you ever heard that song? Okay. And then he says, by the way, [14:42] we're not finished. Well, then it's not over. You might not know this, Don, but over and finished [14:49] are synonyms. You can't have it not being finished and it's over. Okay. And then what did he say that [14:59] the big bad outcome? Did I hear this correctly? That if Trump hadn't gone in and prevented them [15:06] from having the nuclear weapons they didn't have and weren't going to have, then we would have to call [15:10] them sir. And that's why we have to destroy the global economy. So you don't have to call them [15:17] sir. What does that mean? Is it because he started getting called sir when he became the president? [15:23] So he's like, okay, if, and this is his muddled brain, if they get power, they're all now sirs [15:30] instead of them. Like it makes no sense. It makes zero sense. Right now they're non-binary. We want to [15:38] keep them that way. Okay. We want to keep them non-binary. Also, I know you were like two when [15:44] it happened, but it's giving like George W. Bush coming down on the jet pack with the, we did it [15:49] like three weeks into the war. I know that. I know that reference. Shut up, Kayla. I know that [15:55] reference. Okay. Then this. The only thing they have is the Gulf. And I think now we're the straight [16:00] as they call it. And I think now I don't know how they hold on. Well, I mean, that's what I'm saying. [16:08] I mean, the backdrop has changed. I know it's been only a month or so, but oil prices are [16:13] up 50%. The stock market had a tough first quarter. By the way, you're right. Stocks are [16:17] still up. You're right, but they're not up. I thought, I mean, honestly, I thought there'd [16:21] be much, and I was willing to do that, to stop a nuclear weapon to be used against this country [16:28] or the Middle East, anybody in the Middle East, they were going to take out the Middle East. [16:33] To stop that, it was certainly worthwhile being much higher than it is right now. If you told me [16:38] So you see what I mean? He has now settled on the argument, and we're moving on from this [16:43] one, that if you don't acknowledge that it could have been worse, then you're not giving [16:50] him proper credit, which is one of the most incoherent arguments a president has ever made. [16:56] Like, it could be worse, is just the summary of his argument. It could be worse. And I expected [17:03] it to be worse. So when we question his judgment, he wants us to know he thought this was going [17:08] to be more disastrous. And the fact that it wasn't speaks to his brilliance. Hmm. And [17:14] then he gets asked about the UK economy in some turmoil. And he diagnoses the one issue [17:20] that must be dragging down the UK economy. [17:23] Did you see that Britain suffered the biggest growth forecast downgrade in the G7? Yeah, [17:29] well, so their economy is impacted. It's the UK, I would say this. What do you think? Does [17:34] anyone have a guess about what he's about to bring up? Any guesses? Any guesses? Guess [17:39] at home? What do you think is the source of the UK's economic issues? Okay, if you had [17:47] to pick one issue. They got to stop with the windmills, and they got to open up the North [17:53] Sea. They have the North Sea in Africa. Okay, there it is. The damn windmills. Did a windmill [18:00] like murder his family? Did they kill his parents like Batman style? Like, what is his thing [18:05] with windmills? I don't get in birds. He equally hates and loves birds. It makes no sense. [18:13] It doesn't. Okay, then you have this. Let me just ask you about the midterms. Do you expect [18:19] the Republicans to lose seats in the House? And what does that mean for your agenda? [18:22] Well, I just left with Mike Johnson and some great people, some great congressmen and women [18:28] and in the Oval Office. I think we're going to do good. Now, with that being said, when somebody [18:35] gets elected president, that party always loses the midterms. I don't know why. I don't know [18:41] why. Nobody can explain it. I ask people that are deep into the psychological world. I said, [18:46] why is it that a voter votes for the opposite party? Even when you have a good president, [18:52] I think I had the greatest year. So maybe your premise is faulty, and maybe the people who are [18:58] deep into the psychological world can't give you a proper explanation if you set them up with a false [19:04] premise. Because if a president's good enough, they can do okay in the midterms. It's true. [19:09] There's historical trends, and often there's a swing away from the party that won the White House [19:14] in the midterms. In the House and Senate goes the other way. But remember, Biden, who wasn't a [19:20] particularly, in terms of polling, popular president come the midterms. When he was president, [19:25] Democrats did really, really well in the midterms. Republicans barely took control of the House and [19:31] lost, again, control of the Senate and weren't able to take control of it, which bucks historical [19:36] trends and demonstrates that it's not always the case that just for some psychological reason, [19:44] voters are dumb and they go against the party that's currently in power. And in Trump's case, [19:49] he should brace for impact if he actually, I don't think he does, but if he actually believes [19:53] that they're going to do all right, then brace for impact because they better not. And it looks like [19:59] the numbers are shaping up to be that. That was Trump's interview on Fox Business. Wowza!
