Marjorie Taylor Greene is getting her revenge by ruining Donald Trump's trip to China. Let me show you what Marjorie Taylor Greene is doing to make sure that Donald Trump's trip was a disaster. So when Donald Trump was giving interviews with state regime media, which calls itself Fox, and saying how, look, the reason we went to war in Iran is because we wanted to help Israel and Saudi Arabia and Kuwait and all these Middle east countries, I really want to help them. Marjorie Taylor Greene was waiting to instantly call Donald Trump out. Here's what she posted. Quote, we are doing it to help Israel. So Trump says we don't need to do it at all when it comes to attacking Iran. So you are paying these ridiculous prices for gas. Inflation is rising and we are evaporating, operating our weapon stockpiles. And he finally admitted why. Wake up everyone. Exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation point. Marjorie Taylor Greene's call to everyone, including maga, leave Donald Trump now. And look, Donald Trump has all these quid pro quo deals with all of these Middle east countries. He has personal entanglements. So for Donald Trump, it's all about him. Not our national security, not our safety. It's what benefits Donald Trump. And you saw all those stock trades that Donald Trump made since the war in Iran began, since he and Netanyahu invaded Iran. I mean, I could show you this graphic right here from Unusual Whales. Look at the sheer volume of these trades and compare it to the other trades he made before the war, where there were still lots of trades, but nowhere near 3,800 in quarter one. And a lot of those coming after the catastrophic war in Iran. Tens of millions of dollars each specific trade for like a billion dollars, it looks like in transactions. And then Marjorie Taylor Greene posts Donald Trump's words. She brings the receipts. Here's the video she posted. Play this clip. We don't. We don't need it at all. We don't need it at all. Fair enough.

to help Saudi Arabia and to help Qatar and UA and, you know, Kuwait. And she wasn't done there. She brought other receipts as well. Like when Donald Trump said that he's focused on ensuring that Chinese students get advantages here in the United States, that there's room for at least 500,000 Chinese students in the United States. And Marjorie Taylor Greene's like, what I mean, wasn't the whole thing that you and I were campaigning about was like, not doing that and saying that those seats should go to American students? I mean, that's what Martin. Marjorie Taylor Greene saying. Here's what she posts. Trump says it's insulting to tell China their students can't go to our universities. Imagine being an American student and receiving a rejection letter while 500,000 Chinese students get in. And no, it's not okay for China to buy our farmland. And no, that's not common sense because what did Donald Trump say as well when he was in China speaking to state regime media, which calls itself Fox and Hannity interviews and Brett Baer interviews, Donald Trump said, we got to make sure we give our farmland to the Chinese because otherwise, how can our farmers survive if they can't sell their farm to Chinese companies? And then she brings the receipts and she says, here's what Donald Trump said. I don't need to play that video because I don't want to hear Donald Trump's voice anymore. And she goes on to say the following. After we saw the April CPI Consumer Price Index numbers come in 3.8%. April's PPI came in producer price index, the wholesaler price at 6%, CPI, 3.8%, PPI, 6%. And that. And by the way, you saw the bond market. You saw the 30 years above 5, right? Now you saw the 10 year at 4.5, right? You saw that. And then. So Marjorie Taylor Greene writes, the word affordability is not a hoax. Being able to afford life is extremely important and a determining factor for a nation's success. Unaffordability is the infuriating reality many Americans are living with. She then posts the latest polling Data from Kentucky's 4th congressional district and the GOP primary there results by age Thomas Massie dominating amongst younger voters whereas Gallerin the opponent is dominating amongst people above 56 years old. To which Marjorie Taylor Greene writes, next time Benny Johnson, MAGA Republican Influencer is speaking to young people at a Turning Point USA rally. Everyone remember that Benny hates Thomas Massie who younger voters love and support and Benny Johnson loves MAGA ISRA Ed Gallerin Gen Z does not support our tax dollars going to Israel and going to an endless wars that are being fought by Israel. Then she goes on to call out and repost calling Benny Johnson Benny propagandson and here's what she writes. She goes I forgot to add that Benny Johnson can't wait to post up every time he's at some elite rich event with buffets dripping with food and when he's on some trip or yacht but then turns around and wants to lie about me. He worships Trump who owns properties all over the world and is wrecking our economy with his little excursion on behalf of Netanyahu, but attacks me for going on a vacation. He rips everyone's content all the time and literally has no level he won't stoop to.

She then posted the following as well. The war in Iran must be going worse than we know, as the strait remains closed. So much so that China may be allowed to build $1 trillion in factories in the U.S. probably in exchange for help with Iran. I'm old enough to remember when MAGA was demanding China not be allowed to own any land in America. But MAGA is whatever Donald Trump says it, according to him. So now it's for foreign wars and it's for China. Shocking, although the postscript to that is that Donald Trump offered Xi Jinping everything. You want our H200, Donald? You want our GPUs, you want our semiconductor chips? You want all of that? That's what Donald would say to Xi, you want all of that? And Xi Jinping's like, no. Remember when you gave those GPUs? Remember when you gave those chips to Saudi to United Arab Emirates? Yeah, all we need is one so we can copy it. We have your semiconductor technology. Why would we want to buy from Nvidia and prop them up? We have our own semiconductor companies here. We're going to prop up our own companies now that we have your ip. Thank you for doing that, Donald. Last year, remember when you tried to impose tariffs against us and then we squeezed you with the rare earths that we control and then you had to give up and Taco with the tariffs against the world. All of those things, by the way, folks, have consequences. And so even if the consequence of Donald Trump folding in his trade war against China last year doesn't and Trump announcing a fake deal, remember Trump was like last May when Trump's like, we did a deal with China and he pumps the stock market, right? So you know, even if temporarily that looks like there's benefit even though it's a fake, while it's a fake deal, the consequences catch up. That's the thing. And the issue is Trump leaves people holding the bag. By the way, Marjorie Taylor Greene responds to Laura Ingraham in that post. She also posts the following Marjorie Taylor Greene does MAGA influencers aren't raging about the rising inflation at 3.8%, gas prices over $4.50 per gallon, spending $40 billion and rapidly rising. Another foreign war in the Middle east and Trump headed to China with the oligarchy corporate elites out America to China. No, these hypocrites are looking hard in the mirror, slapping their own Faces screaming at themselves, don't be a panic. And all because they don't want to get left out of the Mar A Lago parties and the White House events. It's so pathetic. You really have to ask who is funding them both foreign and domestic, or actually it's the same. She's saying Donald Trump is owned by foreigners. Basically. She goes on to say inflation is rising and gas is over $4.50 per gallon, all because Trump went to war with Iran, not at all what America voted for. And then she continues to. It's post after post. And then her words are echoed by a lot of MAGA Republicans out there. So you have this Trump voter, for example, who called into C span, and here's what this Trump voter had to say. Let's play this clip.

I mean, just feeding the lies, just. He put us in a war. The straight, all Donald Trump wants right now is for clean face. He wants the Strait of Hormuz open. Guess what? Before he went there, it was open, open. And the gas prices were beautiful. I mean, everything this man touches, he's putting up gold statues of himself. I mean, when are people gonna wake up? Now I drink the Kool Aid. How did I drink the Kool Aid? I can't even answer that. I don't know if it was those stupid rallies I went to, those stupid, look at, I got rid of my make America great again hat. Okay? I got rid of that. I can't even believe I, I wore that hat. So that's where I'm at.

Guest Speaker
The Palantir thinks that we should reintroduce constriction, conscription, that kids should start getting drafted again into military and they should have mandatory military experience for kids. I just don't understand why anybody would want to support that. That sounds crazy. Especially after this Iran war where everybody's like, why the are we in Iran? And if you signed up for that, that sounds nuts. Is that real? Palantir is publicly called for the US to move away from an all volunteer military and towards some form of universal national service that many observers interpret as reintroducing a draft or conscription.
