Well, and I look at that, does Trump give a shit about the Constitution? No, he's gone against the Constitution and everything. So the 22nd Amendment to him is immaterial. And we have all these different routes. I think that's why the military is going to be in the cities. That's why we were going to have a National Guard domestic response team. So when he says, hey, we're not having an election, I have to stay president, that there's nobody that can do anything about it. And one thing I want to say, Steve Bannon says he wouldn't have gotten so much done if it wasn't divine intervention. What it is, is a completely immoral person doing Corrupt shit. And never in the history of the United States has anybody been so blatantly corrupt as Donald Trump. And that's why he's getting shit done, because he breaks the law.

All right, so imagine usually administrations are run by polling, and that is the North Star is to see how much they can flex or contract what policies they want to do. Listen to Harry Enton here with how unpopular Donald Trump is. And despite this historic record breaking unpopularity, the flexing of this authoritarian regime is breathtaking. Play the clip of more expensive fuel and tariff impacted goods. So let's take a little look at this with Harry Anton to run the numbers on how Americans feel about a little check in on how Donald Trump is handling the economy so far. How's he doing?

Harry Enton (6:44)

Yeah, my mama was a doctor and I think she'd look at these numbers and say that Donald Trump's doing absolutely awful in the minds of the American people. What are we talking about? We're talking about new lows for Donald Trump. He's hit new lows for himself. Trump's economic net approval rating hits lows with these pollsters. CNBC, look at this down now. Minus 13 points on the net approval rating on the economy. You come to this side of the screen, it's minus 19 points among Quinnipiac. And keep in mind, we're talking about hitting record lows for Donald Trump and, and either his first term, which of course ended back in 2021, or his second term, which is ongoing right now. The bottom line is Donald Trump is at the lowest point ever in either of his terms.

Podcast Host 1 (7:22)

But okay, so this is, this is something that typically an executive would, when they see this type of polling, they would retreat a little bit. Not this regime. They are a propaganda regime that is constantly emitting. We're so popular. Everybod likes us. We're such badasses. And they. This man is so wildly unpopular. That's why you saw the propaganda attack on the no Kings march. But just to kind of explain how depraved and bizarre and wwe this administration is, this is a real ice recruitment ad featuring Christine, which in my opinion looks like the COVID of a, a porn. It looks like the thumbnail of a porn where she's like, I mean, this is just insanity. The centering and the highlighting and the main character syndrome that each leader of each department has with promoting themselves in a very Trumpian way. Like, they take his lead. I'm going to be the star. And Kristi Noem has committed more crimes than probably anybody in the administration. And they cannot understand these people are so morally bankrupt and so depraved and so mentally ill. In my opinion, like sociopathy, psychopathy. They still cannot understand why people would protest them. They think that we all 7 million people were paid because they can't understand that people would be good just for the sake of being good. In their mind, oh, we're only going to be good if people pay us to be good. So play this clip.

Steve Bannon (9:11)

And then you have the radical left lunatics. And what's that all about? I mean, they're fighting us because we want to stop crime. Where did these people come from? They're paid money, I guess they're paid a lot of money. But, like, I saw that ridiculous march the other day. I say these people are not representative of our country. And not all of them, of course, but many of them are total low lives. These are low.

Podcast Host 1 (9:40)

Okay, I want to point out here that as a Democrat, as a progressive voter, when he calls me a lowlife, it doesn't bother me. I don't feel the need to bounce into histrionics and frail and flail around. I don't feel the need to do that.

Podcast Host 2 (10:02)

But.

Podcast Host 1 (10:03)

But with them, when you criticize them, like when I criticize J.D. vance for being at. For not condemning racism when he has an Indian wife and mixed race kids, it is stage five meltdown over there. Because it's true. It's true. So when you criticize them and it's true, then you. You call them racist, you call them fascist, you call them Nazis, you call them anti American, they lose their fucking minds because there's truth to it. They can sit here and call us low lives. They can sit here and call us wok, they can sit here and call us all of these things. It doesn't fucking matter to me and doesn't even remotely trigger me. And I think it's really, really interesting that you have large blocks of the American public that think that championing, championing for universal human rights and for people to make a livable wage and for people to have the. In the courts, to have due process, that we would have to be paid to stand up for that. For us to stand up for black and brown people, for us to stand up for members of the LGBTQ community, for us to fight for a woman's right to have privacy with their doctor, that we would have to be paid for that. That we would have to be paid to stand up for many Americans that work 40, 60 hours a week and make chicken shit money, and they can't afford health care and they can't afford child care. And that for us to stand up for those marginalized, that we would have to be paid is much more of an indictment on this depraved regime than anything that they do, anything they think in order to care about other people, you have to be paid. And that, to me, is incredibly chilling.

Podcast Host 2 (11:52)

I want to take a minute to thank our sponsor. And today's sponsor is very important. It's about security. It is simply safe. Simplisafe is real security that stops crime before it starts. Traditional security systems only react and take action once someone has already broken in. Simplisafe stops crime before it even starts by confronting potential threats the moment they appear. This is the game changer. The agents take action while the intruder is still outside. They confront the intruder, letting them know they're being watched and, and on camera and that the police are on their way, and even sounding a loud siren and triggering a spotlight if needed. Right now, our listeners can save 50% on a SimpliSafe home security system at simplisafe.com I hip. That's simplisafe.com I hip. Yeah, it's a window into their soul. It absolutely shows that they are transactional and have zero conviction. But one of of the things you said, you know that they typically presidents look at the polling and work on that and adjust their policy based on that. I feel like Donald Trump, he knows he's never leaving. He knows that he's got that spot until he's dead. So he doesn't give a shit. He wants to make as much fucking money as he can, seize as much power. So what the American people think is completely immaterial to him and everybody in this cabinet.

Podcast Host 1 (13:31)

Absolutely. Because they are going to rip up the Constitution. Starting with Steve Bannon talking about that. You can tell by the way Pam Bondi behaves in front of oversight committees that she never thinks she's going to be held accountable. You can tell by the fact that Kristi Noem bought $200 million worth of jets. You can tell by the fact that they ripped down entirely the East Wing that they are never, in their minds, ever going to be held accountable for this. And again, all of these millionaires and billionaires that have made so much money in this country and you're supporting him right now, you're fucking yourselves. You are fucking yourselves. Because authoritarian regimes do not have good economies. The best indicator of a healthy economy are countries that have the best governments. And if you have a corrupt judicial system, your economy will Go the way of Russia. And it's just so fucking crazy that two podcasters like us and others all over the country see this and that. People get a taste of money and a private plane and they're just willing to not give a shit about anybody else. And they think they're so fucking special. I'm a billionaire, so I'm so special. I deserve all these one on one meetings and I. I deserve special treatment. It's really rather disgusting. All right, moving along, we have Representative Grijavla and she is unable to access the Capitol building. And so you hear little Moses Mike Grinder Johnson, who could end this whole thing, by the way, but he doesn't want to because he doesn't want the goods. I believe, in my opinion, the MAGA regime has the Grinder goods on little Moses Mike Grinder Johnson. And so that's why they have his balls in the hands. And he goes out and, and debases himself, his faith, his country, his Constitution, speaker of the House position, everything for this demented man. He goes on TV constantly and says, she needs to get to work. She needs to get to work. Well, he refuses to swear her in. And this is classic gaslighting from abusers, because make no mistake about it, this regime is abusing the American public. But here she is revealing she can't get to work work because she can't even access the Capitol because Moses Mike can't get his ass off Grindr to go swear her in. Play the clip. When you're talking about how, you know, people call it, they still hear your dad's voice. I mean, even on smaller things than that, logistical things, you can't get into Capitol Hill right now after certain hours because of the shutdown, unless you have a Hill badge. I mean, that's where we're broadcasting from right now. But you technically could not be on set with us tonight because you can't come in to the Hill property this slated at night. No, I can't. I could hitch a ride with you maybe, but I can't go on my own because, I mean, even when if you saw I joined the Democratic Caucus and walked down Capitol Hill, walked down like that. We took the steps down and I stood there with them. They had to come. Someone had to come get me from security. Okay, so this proves right here, you know, there's a large body of evidence that everybody in the MAGA regime wakes up, goes to a microphone, pathologically, impulsively, compulsively. Lies, lies, lies, lies, lies. All day long. They go home in the case of Moses, Mike Grinder Johnson, they go home and do gay stuff. Then they get up the next morning, and then they get up and they lie, lie, lie, lie, lie. Again, for a man that is like 90, has full blown dementia and looks like he's about to keel over any minute. And so, again, I want to emphasize, all of this could end. All of this could end if there were some people in this country that had some fucking courage. But that's all we have for this episode.
