The authoritarian strongman that Donald Trump wants to be has had the worst week that I can remember in a long time. And that's a high bar because everything this man touches turns terrible. It's a disaster. It dies. He had the utmost humiliation when he was in Davos. World leaders were talking about his cognitive decline, the hand, the cankles. I mean, it was front page news all over. This man is unhinged and not with it. Then you have Jack Smith saying, beyond a reasonable doubt, he would have been convicted. He was issuing death threats. This guy is a criminal through and through. And then the worst insult to this man, to this poor, little, fragile, tiny hand, little man, low T all the way were his poll numbers that were absolutely in the toilet, which we've talked about. So it's like, how's he going to react? Because I knew when all those polls, when you're seeing 10, you know, 10, 20 polls of him under 35, under 40, even some under 30, I knew his little ego couldn't take it. So he starts with this barn burner about how he is going to something should be done about fake polls. He's got the. And he goes through all these fake accomplishments that he doesn't have. Then he talks about how the New York Times and so many others print full polls that they are knowingly false because he cannot wrap his head around. We all now see him like he sees him, which is small and pathetic. And so he's now calling for a lawsuit for fake Pulse because his ego is that fragile. And I know this isn't the first time we've talked about this and this isn't the first or last time that this has happened, but overnight he posted over 100 times on live social. Then you've got Mike Johnson saying, well, he mixes up where he only sleeps three hours a night. He sleeps three hours a night because he's too busy trying to hide the fact that he is the most pathetic, weakened leader this United States of America has ever had.

So this is, this has been one of his grievances for now 10, 11 years. Mad at poll numbers, going to launch a lawsuit, goes to social media, you know, does a bender on social media all of the time. And this is going to continue this is. This happened. Trump 1.0. This happened during Biden's administration, this happens now. And whenever he gets the. The truth put at him is when he's going to be most dangerous and provocative with policy. And it's already so dangerous and it's already so provocative. And again, what I have to say here is, for me, the big story is not Donald Trump acting like a nut. Donald Trump mad at poll numbers. I've been dealing with this for 10 years. This is not new information for me. Where my brain goes is conflict resolution. The resolution for me in this is the poll numbers are so abysmal. Why on earth are the Democrats carving out seven votes to vote to fund ice? That's my point. I can't sit here any more and talk about what a nut this man is because it is ground hog day. It surprises me. 0. Everything he does is the exact same boring shit. He's a two to three trick pony. And my focus now are on the people that claim that they oppose him. Why are you voting to throw, fund and increase funding for an organization that has a budget larger than the United States Marine Corps, that is homiciding people in El Paso, shooting people at point blank range with a lab in the backseat of the car because her wife called some little pink arm, trigger happy, broken, emotionally stunted goon, a big boy, shoots her in the face and calls her a. That's the extension of this insanity that I want to focus on, that we can fix. And I am mystified, mystified beyond everything that there isn't a revolt within the Democratic Party right now. Some brave House members that say, you know what we're supposed to do? I'm supposed to get up to this microphone and I'm supposed to say, I support Hakeem Jeffries. We are the resistance. That's what I'm supposed to do. I'm supposed to say, well, some, you know, some people, you know, might feel like in their district if they say we don't fund ice, that they're anti law enforcement and we need a politician to stand up and say, ICE is not law enforcement. You know it. I know it. I'm not going to gaslight you. You're already getting gaslit enough by the Trump regime, all of his banana shit. But we're here to tell you the truth. And either the minority leader can join us, but we're going to keep doing these press conferences and we're going to continue to confirm every single day that what you're seeing is depraved Heartbreaking. Un American Inhumane. And we are confirming what you're seeing should not be funded by your taxpayer dollars. And isn't what a democracy, a functioning, healthy democracy, is supposed to do? And that's where I want the conversation to shift. Because this man going bananas and throwing feces on his idiotic social media platform is just simply another day in America.

You know, something that struck me when I saw that the House voted to continue the funding. I thought, you know, we sit on here and we talk about how none of the Republicans will stand up to Donald Trump and they're too scared to vote against them. And I just had this icky feeling all over me when I saw that, because I'm like, I want us to be different than them. I don't want us to sit here like Mike Johnson does and lie and say, well, I don't know, and didn't do this. And then you see that Hakeem Jeffries did not stand up to Donald Trump. I mean, his individual vote might have, but he did not utilize his power. And it made me feel icky because I thought, there's not a whole lot of difference between us and them. And that is a shameful place to be as a Democrat, when your leaders, despite the fact they're not in the majority, again, Refer to Mitch McConnell, what he did in the minority, and it's fucking embarrassing. And. And something else. It's like Europe. Trump goes to this World Economic Forum, he throws Europe under the bus in the worst way. I don't even hear anybody on the Democratic side other than Gavin Newson, who was there, and a few other, like, governors that were there. But in. In, unless I missed it, I didn't hear Hakeem Jeffries talking about how he threw our allies under the bus or Chuck Schumer. Did you hear that or have they just gone completely silent?

I haven't heard that, but I. I can't speak to whether they did or not, because I don't know. And I want us to be, you know, right back based. But it should have been so much that it should have gone viral. We should know about it. So if they put out a tweet here, they put it, you know, in a. Manu Raji was following in the halls of Congress, and it was some, you know, passive resistance to it. It didn't. It didn't make it. And we're news junkies. It's our job to be. And so my issue is every American right now should know exactly the names of who the minority leaders of the opposition Are. This is not the 2000s. This is different. We're up against a completely different machine. And do you think for a second, if the roles were reversed, that seven Republicans would go and vote with the Democrats? The Democrats are absolutely horrible. Hakeem Jeffries can say, oh, I voted no. And he can say that all he wants to. He had one job. Whip the votes. Whip them. Whip the votes. And he didn't whip. And it's just. He is such an impotent leader. It's. It's really depressing. It's depressing that his colleagues in the House go along with that. He is doing such a great job. It really is a lie to the American public. And it is the same style of appeasement, by extension, that he's allowing those seven people to do and all of the members of the House that are not confrontational with Hakeem Jeffries about this. There are lives hanging in the balance because of this. A sense of urgency needs to be there. And you're worried about some purple district when the polling shows that this man is so underwater, even with Trump supporters. And that ice, not wanting to fund ICE and not supporting ICE, is a moderate position, not a liberal position, not a leftist position, not a progressive position, a moderate position like the. The party that loves to crowdsource their morality. And they. So then it's like, oh, okay, you are just the controlled opposition. It's so infuriating. It is. It. Real leaders right now would meet this moment. And the disappointment that I feel in Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer is a part of my great awakening to realizing how broken and dysfunctional the Democratic Party is and how they participate in basically the same show and pony dance that the Republican Party does. But they put a few more things on the menu that I like. Gay marriage equality, talking about potential health care for people. And it's almost more insidious, quite frankly. Be truthful. Tell the truth. Quit playing these chicken shit games where you're worried about the appearance of that or the appearance of this. You think Donald Trump or the Republicans give a fuck about the appearances of anything they say or do? J.D. vance called him Hitler.

Right?

And survived it. Politically. The one thing that MAGA has shown us is they don't give a fuck what the appearances of anything are. And guess what they got in being authentic pieces of shit? They got the executive branch, they got the legislative branch. And through minority votes, minority, popular votes, they got the Supreme Court. It's unbelievable how cowardice the Democratic Party is.

I completely agree and something that we've talked about on this show over and over. The urgency. Where is the fucking urgency? Fascism. We are truly in the middle of an authoritarian takeover and we're writing strongly worded letters. I mean, it's just we are in a five alarm fire and nobody's coming to save us but us, as you always say. All right, please, like this video, subscribe to our channel and we will be back with more news.
