Date: October 24, 2025
Hosts: Jennifer Welch & Angie “Pumps” Sullivan
Main Theme / Purpose
In this episode, Jennifer and Angie break down the recent White House press conference where former President Trump veered into erratic, incoherent rants. The podcasters use dark humor and biting commentary to highlight escalating authoritarian behaviors, deteriorating mental faculties, and Republican complicity. Blending current headlines with personal analysis and memorable one-liners, they aim to demystify political doublespeak and rally listeners in deep-red states.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Canada Advertisement, Tariffs, and Narvaro’s Fictional Economist
[00:48 - 03:09]
- Trump reacts to an ad in Canada: Jennifer reads Trump’s fiery social media post proclaiming that Canada used a “fake” Reagan ad to interfere with the Supreme Court, and abruptly ends trade negotiations.
- Angie’s Analysis: “His whole trade policy… is based on a lie. This guy named Peter Navarro… wrote a book and he thinks he’s this great economist and made up a fictional character expert and cooked the books on tariffs. And this is who is giving the President of the United States advice” (B, 01:45).
- Navarro’s criminal record and lack of expertise are discussed, emphasizing that Trump surrounds himself only with “dipshits so he feels smart.”
- Quote: “Did this guy just escape from a nursing home? So imagine that bar of how dumb the President is. The people advising him are dumber, right?” (B, 02:44)
2. Authoritarian Rhetoric: “We’re Just Gonna Kill People”
[03:09 - 05:04]
- Clip from WH Presser: Trump is asked about war powers but instead replies, "I think we’re just going to kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. Okay. We’re going to kill them. You know, they’re going to be like dead. Okay." (D, 03:58)
- Jennifer’s Reaction: “This is cosplay, but it’s real.” (B, 04:13)
- Angie draws the line: “Any other American president says and does stuff like this, it’s impeachment.” (B, 04:19)
- The hosts evoke previous authoritarian Trump statements (“I can go on Fifth Avenue and shoot people”) and interpret this as an open embrace of extrajudicial punishment.
3. National Guard Crowd Control & Election Interference Plans
[05:35 - 08:57]
- Leaked Memo: A reporter asks (E) about plans to mobilize the National Guard for crowd control in all 50 states by April 2026.
- Response: Hegseth (serving as a military/defense spokesperson) doesn’t deny it, discussing multiple National Guard "layers."
- Angie’s Warning: “They are going to do everything they can do to interfere with the election. They’ve already set up this directive wherein they can send the FBI and other forces… to anybody who has anti American sentiment… the fact that he didn’t deny this shows you their ambitions about sabotaging the election are well in motion.” (B, 06:56)
- Parallels are drawn to evangelical hypocrisy and GOP leaders' complicity out of pursuit for a “Christian nationalist nation.”
4. Militarization, Loyalty, and "Get Rid of Real People"
[08:57 - 10:17]
- Pete Hegseth’s Role: Angie claims Hegseth was selected to purge non-loyalists from the military, facilitating Trump's retention of power regardless of election outcomes.
- Jennifer Adds: “It’s more insidious to have Pete Hegseth... Generals, admirals are already resigning left and right… They want a military loyal to Trump so that if there is any removal of him, the military will not go along with it.” (B, 09:05)
5. Trump’s Deteriorating Mental State (“Flight of Ideas,” Rambling Rants)
[10:17 - 13:05]
- Bizarre press responses: Trump is asked about ICE agents, but instead rambles about Rep. Dan Goldman being a “loser” and obsesses over others copying his use of the F-word.
- Jennifer’s Diagnosis: “This is what psychiatrists call flight of ideas. This is a dementia meets malignant narcissist personality disorder. This man is very unwell and frail.” (B, 11:11)
- Highlighting Hypocrisy: The hosts compare Trump’s constant insults to Republican outrage at minor slights from Democrats.
- Notable Quote: “This is a demented man who is barely able to string together two coherent sentences longer than two. And it’s off the rails. Hannibal Lecter. You can only say seven times or not seven times. It’s just bananas moving along.” (B, 12:35)
6. Insulting Home Depot and Even His Own Supporters
[13:05 - 14:58]
- Trump bashes Home Depot’s flooring while claiming he won’t insult them only because they’re donors/supporters.
- Jennifer unpacks the irony: “Here this tells you how little he thinks of people who shop at Home Depot, which the majority are probably his supporters…” (B, 13:30)
- Lack of intention to leave office: Noting Trump increased the ballroom’s alleged value and is “completely demolished the East Wing,” Jennifer concludes he doesn’t plan to leave and this is enabled by greedy, cowardly GOP elites.
7. Trump’s Physical and Mental Decline
[14:58 - 15:45]
- Angie Observes: “Donald Trump looks terrible. He does not look healthy sitting there. I mean, I thought he looked noticeably worse than the last Sundowner Hour that he hosted.” (C, 14:58)
- Jennifer’s Final Jab: “This man should be in a home or a prison or a home in a prison.” (B, 15:35)
Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments
- “Did this guy just escape from a nursing home?” (B, 02:44)
- “He’s a demented toddler who throws feces all over the White House when he’s not tearing it down all over the Constitution.” (B, 04:35)
- “Any other American president says and does stuff like this, it’s impeachment.” (B, 04:19)
- “They want a military loyal to Trump so that if there is any removal of him, the military will not go along with it. So it’s really dark, really insidious, and not even remotely hyperbolic.” (B, 09:05)
- “This is what psychiatrists call flight of ideas. This is a dementia meets malignant narcissist personality disorder. This man is very unwell and frail.” (B, 11:11)
- “This man should be in a home or a prison or a home in a prison.” (B, 15:35)
