A disaster on the White House lawn. Donald Trump just had one of the most humiliating press conferences I've seen. I guess the purpose of this press conference, Donald Trump is putting gigantic flag poles on the north and south lawn of the White House. So he put a bunch of construction workers as props behind him and then he turns around to the construction workers and he says, are any of you illegal? Any, any illegal immigrants here? Watch this. Play this clip.
- [00:30]
Donald Trump
What they gave to us fellas, they gave. Do we have anybody in here that's a member? No, I don't think so. You've known all these people for a long time. Any illegal immigrants in here? Now, if they were, they'll find out. They'll be checking you. You won't believe your whole life will be destroyed because of this press conference. Watch. They'll destroy these people. I didn't want to tell them that before this did happen. They'll end up being. Oh, he's a so and so. This one is from you. I think you, I think you're gonna be okay. I'll, I'll be right behind you. Thanks. This is far behind you. I'll be right behind.

So he then starts taking questions. A CNN reporter asks him about how his war mongering in the Middle east could be unpopular. And then he starts attacking the CNN reporter. Here, play this clip.
- [01:23]
Donald Trump
Supporters are split on the US Response to who you with CNN fake news. Fortunately, nobody watches. Is anybody watching CNN nowadays? I haven't seen it in a long time. Some of your supporters are wary of the US getting involved in another foreign wall. And some believe that we should support. Do you ever ask a positive question? My supporters are more in love with me today and I'm in love with them more than they were even at election time. Where we.

Then Donald Trump starts attacking the chairman of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell. He calls him a stupid person. I want you to watch the person all the way on the right, the construction worker who's like, what the hell is this guy even saying Here, play this clip, Gary.
- [02:11]
Donald Trump
You know what it is, but I shouldn't use it in front of the fake news. So it's very sad to see it. And what I'm going to do is I'm going to go very short term, like 6 months, 7 months, 8. Wait until this guy gets out, get the rates way down and then go long term because we have a tremendous appetite for our debt because our country is doing well. But think of it. I got a call from Congress three nights ago. Sir, we can't account for the money coming in. I said, that's a good problem. You know, the bad problem is we don't have.
- [02:41]
Commentator
Next, Donald Trump starts ranting about how his approval rating has never been higher. It's the lowest it's ever really been and it's the lowest in presidential history at this time. During a term, Donald Trump is loathed, despised and hated for his vile behavior. But he here he just goes lying, ranting and raving like a lunatic. Play this clip.
- [03:05]
Donald Trump
I think what she might be alluding to is the base is going to stay with you regardless. And you've gone through different regardless.
- [03:12]
Commentator
But some of the people in the base don't want a long term war.
- [03:15]
Donald Trump
They're afraid that we're going to get into a long term war. You look for a long term war. We're looking. It's only, I only want one thing. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. That's it. I'm not looking long term, short term. And I've been saying that for 20 years. I've been saying it as a civilian who got a lot of publicity. People would cover it very simply, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. That's it. It's not a question of anything else. And if you did, you wouldn't have much of a country because they would use it on us and they'd use it on other people and they'd be a terror all over the world. So I may have some people that are a little bit unhappy now, but I have some people that are very happy and have people outside of the base that can't believe that this is happening. They're so happy. And there was a poll that just came out today. My approval rating is the highest it's ever been. All I'm doing is saying you can't have a nuclear weapon. And I tried to do it nicely. And then on day 60, I said let's go because we can't let that happen. And I've been saying it for 20 years. Okay, I'm going to leave. Thank you very much. Thank you, sir.

Then Donald Trump says that he tells Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel, just keep on going, keep on doing what you're doing. Play the clip as you probably.
- [04:22]
Donald Trump
But this looks better. Mr. President, can you share some of what you've told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu? Keep going. What do I say? I speak to him every day. He's a good man doing a been very unfairly treated by his country, I think very unfairly treated. Have you given him any indication that you may Seek to aid them more than you have already? No, so far he's doing a good job. He has been treated very unfairly. You know, he's a wartime president and he's going through this nonsense. It's ridiculous. Sounds like you got a good agree with him that yeah, your National Security Council, very good meeting. Yeah.

Donald Trump whines about a 60 Minutes interview that former Vice President Kamala Harris gave to 60 Minutes in early October of 2024. This is part of that lawsuit that Donald Trump personally filed for $20 billion against CBS and its parent company, Paramount. Donald Trump is holding up the merger between Paramount and another company called Skydance until Paramount personally pays Donald Trump tens of millions of dollars. Reportedly, they've already offered him $15 million, but Donald Trump wants more money from them. In my opinion, it's an absolutely frivolous lawsuit. Donald Trump saying it's caused him emotional distress and suffering because there were different versions of the interview that was aired. By the way, I watched the interview. There's really nothing that was materially edited at all. Like this is all made up. But here's Donald Trump whining about that on June 18, 2025. Play this clip.
- [06:09]
Donald Trump
So what they did IS they interviewed 60 Minutes. They interviewed Kamala. Her answer was horrendous, I would say election threatening. This is the day before the election. Her answer was election threatening was so incompetent. So they took the entire answer out and they took another answer to another question and put it in and they did that, I understand a number of times, but you don't have to do it a number of times. The main question they asked and we caught them and they're very embarrassed and they're working on a settlement. But think of it. Did you ever hear that one before? They took the entire every word, threw it out, put another answer. You think they do that for me? I think it happens daily. Well, I've never seen it. I thought I seen everything that I've never seen. And it's very embarrassing. The head of 16 minutes got fired. The head the of CBS got fired. They're all getting fired.

Then Donald Trump says that he's like made up this deadline for Iran. And he said on day 61, I said, let's go, let's bomb him. When in fact we know that the opposite is true, that Netanyahu basically did it while Donald Trump was saying, well, we have negotiations scheduled for Sunday. And Donald Trump's director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard had said publicly under oath that Iran did not have nuclear capabilities. But then when Donald Trump watched on Fox the decapitation strikes by Israel against the Iranian military generals that wiped out a lot of the generals, Trump wanted to take credit for it. So Trump said, I did it. Here, play this clip.
- [09:26]
Donald Trump
All I'm doing is saying you can't have a nuclear weapon. And I tried to do it nicely. And then on day 61, I said, said, let's go because we can't let that happen. And I've been saying it for 20 years.

Donald Trump then lies and says that gas is as low as A$98 a gallon, which we all know is false. Play this clip.
- [09:44]
Donald Trump
In California, you know, I've got, we've got some gas stations where just two weeks ago it was A$98, A$99, we've got the gas down below. Then we have this little situation which will drive it up a little bit, but very little. And it's going to come down again, going to give people a lot of extra money. Groceries are down, eggs are down. You know, the eggs, they hit me the first week about eggs.

Commentator
Next, Donald Trump says that he is going to be withholding important federal government aid from California because he doesn't like Governor Gavin Newsom of California. Let's play it over the budget.
- [10:21]
Donald Trump
You would be fired, right? If you want one time, if you want a half a time over the budget, let's see what they're doing. They're unwrapping. It's all pure sand along those lines. And if it weren't pure sand, it would eat away every metal. Mr. President, look at rail funding in California for your recent dust ups with Governor Newsom.
- [10:39]
Commentator
Impact additional wildfire relief out there.
- [10:41]
Donald Trump
They've requested 40 billion. Sure. Maybe the man's incompetent. You shouldn't have fires like that. You clean the floor of your forest and you won't have any forest fires. You know, Austria has very, very flammable trees. They don't have forest fires because they clean the floors. They maintain their forest good. In fact, you, hatred is never a good thing in politics. When you don't like somebody, don't respect somebody, it's harder for that person to get money if you're on top. But he's done a bad job.

Donald Trump says the difference between his first term and his second term is that in his first term he was being hunted. And now that he's the hunter hunting people. So what Trump saying at his press conference today about flag polls, mind you, Play this clip.
- [11:30]
Donald Trump
The, the first time I had it begin, you guys were after me. I said, I said I had a focus. I was, I was the hunted and now I'm the hunter. There's a big difference. But he was the same no matter what. Yeah.

It is surprising that Donald Trump is asked about an ultimatum he gave Iran and he said, I gave him the ultimate ultimatum. Play the clip.
- [12:00]
Donald Trump
You could say, so they know, they know what's happening. Maybe you could call it the ultimate, the ultimate ultimatum. Right. What essentially was that, though? Oh, I don't want to say. Look, I mean, give me a break. What about the Paramount deal? I would say the other. She's doing great.
- [12:20]
Commentator
Then Trump says he spoke to Putin yesterday who offered to mediate the dispute between Israel and Iran. Let's play it.
- [12:28]
Donald Trump
You know, Russia, Ukraine is so stupid. Would have never happened if I was president. You guys agree with that, right? Would have never happened if I was president. Putin would have never done it. And I spoke to him yesterday and I said, you know, he actually offered to help mediate. I said, do me a favor, mediate your own. Let's mediate Russia first, okay? I said, vladimir, let's mediate Russia first. You can worry about this later, but I think that's going to work out, too. But so many people have been killed. The big thing with that one is far more people are dead than have been reported in the Ukraine, Russia. Many, many more people. A building falls down. They say nobody was hurt. You know.

Donald Trump talks about winning 35 club championships, and he's upset that he hasn't hit a golf ball in three weeks to four weeks. Let's play it.
- [13:20]
Donald Trump
When you, when you find time in your schedule. 35 club championships, you all know that. 35 club championships. I haven't hit a ball in three weeks. Four weeks. Time to get out there. It's time to. A little busy. Would you rather have me be doing what I'm doing? Of course. In the end, see the way they have that hoisted? It's great because if you lift it up from one, you have to lift it from the bottom, but you have to get it there. But if you lifted it from without that, the whole thing would split.
- [13:51]
Commentator
And then Donald Trump says that what they're doing with the flagpole is called a lifting. And he says he doesn't want to use the word with an e. Erection, but he is calling it a lifting because if he says erection, then he will get made fun of by the media. Play the clip.
- [14:08]
Donald Trump
Let's have a good. They call it a lifting. They also use another word, but I'm not going to use that word. You know what that is? The word. It starts with an e. You know what the word is? If I ever used it, I'd be run out of town by you people. All right, so enjoy it, Doug. You're going to get some good. He's going to win another Nobel Prize, I think, for this picture. So maybe the flag will be even more exciting. But this is pretty exciting. That's some equipment. I'll tell you what. Look at that. That's some beautiful.
