We are now learning that Donald Trump's been telling his staff on this Middle east trip that the reason he absolutely needs this gold plated $400 million 747 jet from the Qataris is that he just feels humiliated when he has to meet the royal families of these Middle east nations who are giving his family all of this money and he has to go around in the regular Air force. He says that he needs a gold plated Air Force One so that his jets can look like their royal jets and that would make him feel stronger when he meets with them. This is the latest reporting from the Atlantic. I'm not making that up folks. And why would you think I am? I mean, that's Donald Trump's personality to a t. Trump has told aides and advisors that it is humiliating to him when he has to show around and show up and fly around in an outdated plane, and that foreign leaders are laughing at him when he shows up to these various summits in older versions of the Air Force One. You think that's why they're laughing at you? Maybe they know how weak and pathetic you are, that they know that you are an easy mark to manipulate. They know, like Qatar, whose entire annual GDP is $200 billion a year, that all they have to do is tell you that they're going to invest 1.2 trillion DOL dollars in the United States, like six times what their actual GDP is and you'll believe that or you won't even care because you're a con artist to begin with. You'll then give them all of the benefits that they want. Meanwhile, they're out there funding Hamas. You'll be out there doing what the Saudis want while you attack our allies in Europe, while you attack our ally in Canada, while you attack our allies abroad. You want to know, Donald, what people are laughing at? They're laughing at when you send emails like this. This is the email from Donald Trump to his supporters this morning. Please open this email. If you love me. Open this right now. If you love me. Do you love me? He sent this one on May 10, but he sends this one like every other day. Do you love me? Open this email. That's what the president of the United States is sending to grift off his supporters. And of course it asks for financial contributions to. Seriously, Donald Trump is out there posting things like this. Like he loves being in royal palaces. I mean, do you see how gaudy he's made the Oval Office where he painted like fake gold statues around the Oval Office. Here's what Donald Trump is posting this morning. America first, am I right? Trump attends state dinner at Lucille palace in Qatar. Oh, Donald, you and the regime are at Lucille palace in Qatar while American people can't even afford groceries. While you promise to bring prices down and they are going up, while you promise to make housing more affordable and housing is less affordable. While you've utterly destroyed the bond market right now, the 10, 20, 30 year treasury yields, they may hit a five handle. They're heading towards 5% which is going to screw with mortgage rates. And by the way, you know what Walmart just announced, Donald? The tariffs are more. This is what the Walmart CFO said this morning. So while you were out there in Lucille Palace, Donald, I know living the lavish life with the royals in Qatar who give you bribes. The tariffs. This is from the Walmart cfo. The tariffs are more than any retailer can absorb. It's more than any supplier can absorb. And so I'm concerned that the consumer is going to start seeing higher prices. You'll begin to see that likely towards the tail end of this month and then certainly much more in June. Also, one of the things that we've been talking about and other analysts like Brussels is saying it as well, the bond market is not buying, being Trump, the Trump regime fraud. And that is because fixed income investors are sniffing out the logic of economic populism amid a move toward trade protectionism, which strongly implies higher inflation and rising long term yields. You Want to know what the European Union and Japan think about you, Don, as you go on these foolish trips to the Middle east and announce your fake deals? As you announced your fake deal with the United Kingdom where the only thing that actually came out of that fake deal was that Jaguar, Land Rover and Rolls Royce got preferential treatment over American car manufacturers. Donald. In comments before a European Union meeting of trade ministers in Brussels, he said the European Union should not jump too fast. The block, he said, did not need a quick deal. Donald. And that seemed to be the sentiment of others, such as Japan. EU ministers aim far higher than that British US Trade deal. European Union trade ministers want a more ambitious trade deal than what took place with the UK because they want to do a fake deal with you, Donald. You want to know why people are laughing at you as well? Donald, While you were in Qatar, this was the speech that you gave. You talked about that you're not a huge believer in stealth because you don't like the shapes. You said you don't like the shapes. The hell are you talking about? Play this clip.
