Donald Trump is in an absolute Panic as he is being buried in bad news, in catastrophic news. But Donald, it is your past resurfacing and you think you can change the topic by post after post on social media, Donald Trump posted a photo of Facebook former President Barack Obama sitting next to him in the Oval Office. Then Donald Trump did an AI regeneration of the video so that it looked like Obama was getting arrested by FBI agents and thrown on the ground. This is the behavior of Donald Trump. He's posting weird right wing MAGA memes like the Pepe the Frog thing. No one is above the law. As he's showing these images of Obama, Donald Trump is also posting photos of a woman grabbing a snake. I'm not sure that this is the best way to distract from your dark past with Epstein, but you're posting random photos and videos of a woman holding a snake. Very strange behavior right there. Also, Donald Trump is posting mug shots of people like Samantha Power, Susan Rice, James Comey, Obama and other AI generated images. It was like post after post after post. He also posted this from Anna Paulina Luna or I agree with Anna Paulina Luna. Until this happens, nothing will change. And it's a photo of. It looks like politicians getting handcuffed and let out of Washington D.C. donald, we all know that you are the swamp. And I want to show you this from the interview that CNN did with President Lula of President Brazil where Lula says if Trump did what he did in the US we would have arrested this guy right away. Here, play this clip.

We participated in five elections and never before in this country someone would raise this issue to try to say or try to coup d' etat attempt like Bolsonaro did. He's not judged personally. He is being judged by the acts. He tried to organize a coup d', etat. He threatened secretly the death, he planned the death of Vice president myself and the Chief Justice. Justice, he could be on trial just for that. And the general, the attorney general denounced yesterday, he will be convicted and I believe in that. Christian, I'd like to say something to the American people. If Trump was Brazilian and if he did what was happening at the Capitol Hill, he'd also be on trial in Brazil and possibly and he would have violated the constitution according to the justices. He could also be arrested if he had done that here in Brazil.

So I want to ask you finally now Donald Trump can try to repost that some. The real blockbuster scandal is something about former President Obama talking about Russia. I don't even know what Donald Trump's talking about here, but the American People aren't buying that at all. They're not buying when Donald Trump's like, we really need to focus on the auto pen scandal. You can't just make up fake scandals. But that's Donald Trump for you. You take a look at Donald Trump's approval. It is plummeting among the American people somehow. On February 9, it was at 53%. Now, based on this YouGov poll, it is at 42%. When you look at Atlas intel, which was the most Accurate Pollster In 2024 and 2024, right now, only 36% of Americans say that they think Trump is doing a good or excellent job, whereas 54% have a negative view about Donald Trump there. And you look at this polling as well. Who do you trust more? 52% Democrats. Over 44% Republicans. Who do you trust more in Immigration? Democrats. Over 45%, Republicans. And a generic poll. Democrats lead Republicans 51 to 42%. For the midterms. Literally every issue, Donald Trump is underwater. Lots of voters, the majority of voters say that the Epstein scandal involving Donald Trump will be a factor in how they vote. This is what Trump. And when Trump posts some of these weird memes and videos on his own social media platform, he's getting responses like, really wish we had a president that didn't post on social media. Like a drunk uncle, like, what are you doing, Donald? Just some of these creepy videos of Donald Trump from the past are resurfacing. Like when he gave a speech at the rally in 2024 where he referred to himself as a hot guy. Here, play this clip.
- [07:15]
Donald Trump
Sort of like a hot guy. I was hot as a pistol. I think I was hotter than I am now. And I became president. President. Okay. I don't know. I said to somebody, was I hotter before or hotter now? I don't know. Who the hell does? Who the hell knows? Who the hell cares, right?

Or this video from sometime on or around 2019 when Donald Trump was speaking to an audience and someone held up an Epstein photo. And then Donald Trump, like, lost his mind. Here, just watch this from the past. Here, play this clip.

Donald Trump
Nafta, because you have to mark up thousands of miles coming through Mexico. You come up thousands of miles coming through Mexico and we're going to stop it. Get them out of here. Get them out of here. Go home to your mom, darling. Go home. Get him out of here. Out.

Donald Trump
Was that a man or a woman? Because he needs a haircut more than I do. Couldn't tell. Couldn't tell. I couldn't tell needs a haircut. But the media never talks about the.

American victims while this is going on. I mean, we're seeing states basically facing recessions right now as a result of the tourism drop and as a result of the Trump economy. For example, in Las Vegas, you know how Donald Trump destroyed Atlantic city in the 1990s when he was best friends with Epstein. Donald Trump is like destroying Vegas right now. I've been seeing lots of videos like this. Circulate on TikTok. But just take a look right now at what Vegas looks like and you'll see it's like pretty empty at this point. Here, play this clip.
- [10:04]
Host 3
I never seen Vegas look like this on a Saturday at 1 in the morning. Where's the people? Holy. Dude, what the. Like, I can't make this up. Holy, bro. This is a Saturday at one of them. Where are the people? Look, even on the Venetian Bridge over there. Nobody. Holy.

Donald Trump was spending this weekend also vacationing and golfing again on the taxpayer dime as he destroys the economy, destroys our standing internationally. I do want to point out as well, you know how Donald Trump said that he removed sanctions against Syria and he said that he thought that the interim president of Syria, who used to be in a branch of Al Qaeda, he goes, I like this guy. He's handsome. He's doing a great job. Well, there's just been horrific violence in Syria recently. I showed you the video last week where or Israel struck the presidential palace in Syria saying they were doing that to help the Druze group which is a minority in Syria. The Druze are Shia in Syria. The leadership party is overwhelmingly Sunni. And this Druze group had pretty much lived autonomously. There was a dispute recently between them and this Al Qaeda branch that the leader of Syria was a part of. And you've just seen some of these horrible atrocities directed at the Druze in Syria from this Al Qaeda branch that the interim president was part of. But you have such a massive amount of instability there. I just want to flag this issue because I think it's not getting enough attention here. And then the Druze were kind of upset that Israel struck the presidential palace because they don't want to seem like, hey, were being supported by Netanyahu because that gives additional grounds for the Sunnis to go after them or the Sunni group that leads Syria. So we have that. Also, this bot farm was just discovered. A MAGA network of at least 400 bot accounts on X has been discovered by social media analytics company and researchers at Clemson University. And they were discovered because they did. The bot farm didn't know how to respond to the Epstein scandal. Right here. And then more people are coming forward. So let me just share with you this clip right here of one of the victims of Epstein. Here, play this clip.

Witness/Accuser
The time that is most memorable to me is the time when he hit on me because I was in the office. It was one of the first times I started working for Donald Trump's a sleaze bag. Okay? Yes, it was when I started working for Epstein and it was nine at night and Jeffrey Epstein's office is totally empty. I told the New York Times this, but of course they don't the whole thing. Right. Even though Mike Baker is amazing, they would not allow him to tell the truth. So basically, I go into this office, it's 9:00' clock at night, and I sit down and a few minutes later, and I'm wearing running clothes. Okay? So it was really weird. It's 9 o' clock at night and I'm wearing running clothes because I didn't have money. So I had to jog up there, right. And so I just struggled, you know, for so long. So I'm like up there in the office seated, and I've got my, you know, my running clothes on, so my legs are showing. And in walks this man that when I called, when I reported him to the FBI, said that game show host, Donald Trump. Because I played with the game show host. Yeah. To be so cheesy, you know. But anyway, so I said. I mean, I said hello to, you know, he walks in and I just kind of acknowledged him, like a head nod or something. And he immediately starts. He seated across. I mean, standing across the room for me. And I'm seating seated, and he's like, oh, Maria. I mean, no, he didn't. Sorry, I was just looking at something. He. He's standing across the room and he's looking at me and I'm like, oh, gross. You know, this guy's so gross. Anyway, he's just looking, glaring at my legs, like, yum. I felt. I told my sister I felt like I was his dinner or his lunch, you know? Yeah. The way he was looking at me. So Epstein comes in and by the way, I did not look good. I was like, not a pretty. I'm not exceptionally beautiful or anything like that. These are just gross people. You know what I mean?
- [14:40]
Political Analyst 1
Yeah, yeah.
- [14:41]
Witness/Accuser
So just like a normal person who went on a run and I'm seated there, so he assumed I was there for him. And this is how I know. Epstein walks up to him and goes, no, no, she's not here for you. And, and they were smirking and Epstein whispered something. He goes, go in there. And what? And so Trump at 9 o' clock at night, goes in the other room, there's someone in there for him.
- [15:02]
Donald Trump
Right?
- [15:02]
Political Analyst 1
Right.
- [15:03]
Witness/Accuser
I don't know who, but Epstein said, no, no, no, she's not here for you.

Also, you have Donald Trump making bizarre posts yesterday. He goes, my statement on the Washington Redskins has totally blown up, but only in a very positive way. And he says that he will prevent the approval of the Washington commanders having a stadium and playing in Washington, D.C. unless they call themselves the Slur. Unless they refer to themselves as, as the, as the Redskins. And he says the same thing that, that the Cleveland Indians need to make sure they use the name Indians. Like, what are you doing here? Like, seriously, what is going on here? And then Donald Trump posts. The Wall Street Journal ran a typically untruthful story today by saying that Secretary of Treasury Scott Besson explained to me that firing Jerome Too late Powell, the worst Federal Reserve chairman in history, would be bad for the market. Nobody had to explain that to me. I know better than anybody what's good for the market and what's good for the US if it weren't for me, the market wouldn't be at record highs right now. It probably would have crashed. So get your information correct. People don't explain to me. I explained to them, I mean, how deranged is this individual? And I always like to show you this photo. I think this is a kind of such an accurate meme right here where it shows Biden with an orange face. And it was like, imagine if Joe Biden walked around and looked like this or behaved the way Trump does. There's nothing normal about it, folks.
