Trump has MELTDOWN in AM after CATASTROPHIC NEWS

Donald Trump being hit with a torrent of catastrophic news this morning. He continues to rant and rave like a lunatic on social media while this is taking place. He's learned that a lot of MAGA Republican Congress members are threatening to do what Marjorie Taylor Greene just did, which is to resign, to leave before the midterms. And this could potentially shift the balance of the House of Representatives to Democrats before the midterms, and this could potentially shift the balance of the House of Representatives to Democrats before the midterms even take place.

This is what Jake Sherman of Punchbowl is reporting this morning. The entire White House team has treated all members like garbage, according to sources close with some of these MAGA Republican Congress members who are saying that they may resign pretty soon. And Mike Johnson has let it happen because he wanted it to happen. And the sentiment is at a near time low amongst these MAGA Republicans.

I'll do a longer report on that now. Donald Trump was posting that he believed that these talks with Europe over the weekend regarding the 28 point plan of surrender that the United States laundered through Russia and tried to force down Ukraine's throat. Trump thought this was productive. You know, Europe and Zelensky pushed back against this Trump and Putin plan. And then Europe and Zelensky said, here's what we're OK with. But you have to respect the territorial

integrity of Ukraine. And so Ukraine and Europe put out that statement. And now we've learned from a senior advisor close to Vladimir Putin that they will not support Europe's plan. So essentially we are exactly where we were before. And didn't Donald Trump promise that he was going to bring peace to Ukraine in 24 hours? Oh, wait a minute. Donald Trump lies about everything. As I mentioned, Donald Trump ranting and raving like a lunatic this morning. He's threatening the Supreme Court and saying that if you do not support

Trump's tariffs plans, I'm going to do a direct quote of the threat that Donald Trump made this morning to the Supreme Court. You are serving hostile foreign interest not aligned with the success, safety, and prosperity of the United States is what he says if the Supreme Court rules against him. And then Donald Trump says, you know, the full benefit of the tariffs has not yet been calculated because many of the buyers of the goods and products in order to avoid paying the tariffs Have stocked up by purchasing far more inventory than they can in order to avoid paying the tariffs

Yes, Donald because it is a tax on the American corporations, which they pass on to the American people That's why they stocked up. That's why, because it's a tax and it's a taxation power that lies with Congress, not the executive branch. So we will see what the Supreme Court says. We expect that ruling to be handed down very, very soon. Also this morning, Xi Jinping gave Donald Trump a call, or we should say a punch to the throat because Xi Jinping made it very clear that he wants Taiwan and he timed this phone call with the fact that there is no trade deal with the

United States despite Donald Trump claiming that there was one every other month. Now our soybean farmers and others here in the United States that rely on China as a market to export goods to are suffering. And so one of the things that Xi Jinping is doing is he's saying, look, if you want us to, you know, in any way, try to bail you out, Trump, because Trump, you so misplayed this trade war against China and the world recognize that Taiwan

belongs to China. Do you see how they outmaneuvered him while Donald Trump continues to say, Oh, Xi Jinping loves me. We did such a great deal. We did such a great, you didn't do any deal. And China has their knee on your throat because they see what utter weakness that there is

right now. And let's talk about how the American people are feeling right now. I think this was a pretty good summary this morning. This is from Harry Enten over on CNN. This is how the American people, by massive numbers

and on a bipartisan basis, the American people feel that because it is, that prices are going up dramatically and that Trump's lying about everything. And this is the worst economy in recent history. Here, let's play this clip.

I mean, just your costs are up versus a year ago. Groceries, 85%, utilities, 78%, healthcare, 67%, housing, 66%, gasoline, 54%. The bottom line is this, Americans feel like prices are rising in each and every single

part of their lives rising ever-climber and they just don't feel like Kate Baldwin that

they can catch a break.

The Treasury Secretary in new comments kind of dismissed the impact tariffs is having on inflation, also saying that prices are going to be coming down in weeks. Some of the prices are going to be coming down in months.

What do Americans think about that?

Yeah, they think he's full of it. That's exactly what they think. I mean, just take a look here. Tariffs rising, raising prices. Are raising prices right now.

Klobuchar, Kate's side of the screen, 71%. How dare you? How dare I do that? 84% of Democrats, 74% of Independents, and even a majority of Republicans to agree with a majority of Democrats, you know that the pain is being felt by the American public right now. The Treasury Secretary can try and tell the people something, but they can feel in their

pocketbooks they simply put, don't buy what he and this administration is selling when it comes to tariffs.

Now, as I mentioned, that Xi Jinping call to Donald Trump was very much perfectly timed at a maximum leverage point for Xi Jinping to again, as I said, put his neck into Donald Trump's weak throat. Because let me show you what was going on on CNBC, where you had Brooke Rollins, the secretary of agriculture, and she's being asked by the hosts, hey, didn't Donald Trump claim that China was going to buy 12.1 million metric tons of soybeans from the soybean farmers after Donald Trump met with Xi Jinping

last month under former President Biden, China was buying 27 million metric tons of soybeans. 12 million seems to be 15 million less, but I suppose it's better than zero, which is what China was doing under the Trump regime. So, Brooke, why is it Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins? Why is it that China's not doing what they said they were going to do? Is it because it was a fake deal and China continues to exert leverage on Donald Trump's neck? Here, play this clip.

I understand this and tell me if I'm wrong. My understanding is that you said in the White House, it said that China was going to buy 12 million metric tons of soybeans from the United States by January. We're now just about a month and a half away from that. They have, according to the USDA report, only made two big purchases, and they total, in total, 332,000 metric tons. How is that pledge, if that is a real pledge, and China has not confirmed that pledge, going to be made in that quick a time?

Andrew, thank you. We're actually about a million and a half metric tons, but your point is still salient, right? That a million and a half of 12 million. We've got we've got a significant way to go. I know they are inking the deal this week or next week. Again, every sign is their commitment remains true that they will indeed buy or purchase 12 million metric tons or put the order in.

It doesn't mean we'll move 12 million metric tons by the end of December, but it means that those orders will come in according to their commitment and their promise to our president and to Secretary Besson and to Ambassador Greer. So again, we have every indication

that those will continue to move, even if the purchase order comes in before the end of December, those will move early next year.

And then throughout the morning too, we saw the continuation of this MAGA gas lighting. You had MAGA Republican Congress member Tom Emmer go on the Maria Bartiromo show and say, "'Prices are down, inflation is great, "'everything is at a five-year low,

"'the American people are so rich right now.'" That's really what these MAGA Republicans and Fox are going with, that we're doing great and everyone's so rich right now in America. Here, play this clip.

Midterm elections, Congressman. I mean, now everybody's talking about affordability. Are you going to be able to convince the American people that in fact costs are coming down? Do you want to see President Trump cut tariffs at this point on some of the things that he's talking about? He said he's going to start cutting tariffs on certain things like coffee from Brazilzil etc

groceries are down gases at a five-year low i i did you put in your car maria yeah that's right and you still have the permanent tax policy that will take affect in january no taxes on tips no taxes on overtime no taxes on social security. These are the marquee items that Donald Trump ran on that have actually been delivered.

And look, they destroyed this economy under Joe Biden for four years. Donald Trump has been there for less than a year and he is already showing progress. Get ready for 2026. I believe it's gonna take off

and we will be in a great position for the midterms because Americans will realize that exactly what they voted for when they voted for Donald J. Trump last November and Republicans in the House and the Senate, promises made have been promises kept. And this is the future is going to be much brighter a year from

now. All right, Congressman Tom Emmer in fighting form. I love it. Good to see you, sir. Thanks so much.

You know how brutally pathetic and cruel and unusual it is for people like that to go on and just spew with venom those lies and just treat us all like we're stupid. That's the thing with Trump and Maga. They think you're stupid. They think we're stupid. That's what they think right here, that they're going to go on and say, you got to love what this president's doing. He may give you a $2,000 rebate check. Here's what Tom Emmer then said after that. He dangles a $2,000 tariff

dividend or tariff rebate check. Oh, and we're going to make the American people so rich with the $2,000 check. First off, the average American family has paid $2,000 to $3,000 more already this year as a result of Donald Trump's tariffs against the world. In addition, you're not going to be giving a tariff rebate check. You're lying. Remember when you said you were going to give the Doge dividend checks, but then Doge just

shut down after like killing hundreds of thousands or potentially millions of people around the world by cutting off things like USAID and cutting out of critical programs. Here's what Tom Emmer says though about you gotta love this president. He's giving people two thousand dollar checks. No, he's not giving anybody checks. First off, not even true. And that's not a way to systemically address the fact that he's destroyed the economy and he's crippled the Americans' abilities to survive right now and he's psychologically torturing people living paycheck to paycheck.

Here play this clip.

Concerned about the national debt the way John Barrasso is concerned. What is the likelihood that that passes $2,000 checks to individuals next year, Congressman?

Well, first off, you got to love this president. He looks at this like a business. And when the business is doing well, the shareholders, which are to love this president. He looks at this like a business. And when the business is doing well, the shareholders, which are the American people, should be rewarded. How that turns out, we'll see where the president wants to go with it. But the real issue, yeah, it is the debt. Thirty seven trillion in debt and growing, Maria. We have to continue to

address this. Which is why the appropriations process is so important. You can't allow Biden era spending to continue.

Then you have Howard Lutnick. He's back on selling his sham. Wow. Reference to the infomercial. You seem like a infomercial salesman, Howard Lutnick. And let me tell you what's going to happen. Everybody. I'm Howard Lutnick. I was there. I was with the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court loves Donald Trump. They're not going to overturn his tariffs. That's my Howard Lutnick impression here.

Play this clip.

What is the backup plan?

Should the Supreme Court rule against you? Well, we are going to win the case. It's pretty clear. I was I sat in the Supreme Court. We're going to win the case But the fact is the president has all sorts of policies and tools throughout He's he's got tariff rules of 232 in my department. He's got 301. He's got 338

He's got tariffs are going to be a part of this administration's national security and national economic

Protection of the American people but we are going to win the case so you can worry about the backup plan Now, I You heard it from me. I feel confident. I sat through the case. We're gonna win. Yeah, you were there now

I just want other people to understand how extremely Unsafe Internationally the world is with a weak United States right now So you have a g-g ping calling up Trump saying Taiwan is ours that would never happen under former President Biden or under Obama That China would make a call like that because they know that it would be met with immediate retaliation with immediate strength.

And one of the things that went by the way, we're showing you also what happened with Ukraine. The fact that Trump laundered Russia's 28 point plan of surrender, Google translated it into English and tried to force it down Zelensky's throat, but Zelensky went to his European allies and said, no way, no how we're not doing it, push back on it, and then presented a new plan. And now Putin's like, we're not following that.

Just a freaking mess right there. But also we have the new prime minister of Japan, Takeishi, saying that because, by the way, because this is out of Trump's weakness, Japan had to put out a statement now saying that it would potentially defend Taiwan if China sought to take over Taiwan. Why is Takeishi saying in Japan? Because Trump's so weak that other nations have to assert themselves. So then China's envoy says if Japan dares to intervene militarily in the Taiwan Strait situation, it will constitute an act of aggression.

China will resolutely exercise its right of self-defense under the UN charter and international law. So you have Japan saying we're going to protect Taiwan.

Why?

Cause us is being so weak and Japan feels its interests are being threatened. China saying, well, then we're going to basically invade Japan and Donald Trump too scared to even show up at the G20. Like y'all see what's happening. He's too scared to show up in the South Africa's G20, which by the way, the U S is hosting next year that Donald Trump had to make up that there's a white genocide taking place in South Africa, because it was the first time by there's the first time the G20 was being held in the African continent and Trump is so pathetic, racist

and scared that he didn't want to show up. So we use that as an excuse going to mega Republican Congress member Lisa McClain. She refused to unequivocally condemn. She seemed to support it. Donald Trump threatening to hang and kill her Democratic colleagues. She's a MAGA Republican. The Democrats who said to the military, you can't follow unlawful orders in war crimes.

Here, play this clip.

I think what the president was doing though was reminding you of the oath that you did take and there are consequences. So you can have freedom of speech, but freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences. And that was the reminder, I think, in that. So everyone focus on the, I can say whatever I want. Yes, you can say whatever you want,

but there are consequences for what you say. And I think that was the reminder he was giving

those senators. And I want to point this out as well. You know, there is a container ship fire about three to four miles off the coast of Los Angeles right now that has major implications because there's lots of goods from companies like Toyota and Nike and Caterpillar and Honda and Hinta and Hilton food solutions. And there's lots of medical gear. And anyway, this container ship caught on fire. I think the ship was run by one is the group. It was an electrical fire. And the head of the port of L.A. called the Trump regime and said, hey, we need the help of the feds because this is in waters as well, like kind of like US coastal waters. Hey, we need your help

with this fire. There's hazardous material on here. We have to contain it. No call back from the United States, no call back from the Trump regime at all, which is unheard of. Refusing. And by the way, if Trump thinks he's owning California by not dealing with this container ship on fire, you're ruining the country by doing stuff like this because these, this equipment needs to get to other places, red States, blue States, and purple States. And people are suffering. And for order,

in order for the companies to understand what inventory they lost, and in order to be able to make appropriate claims, the feds have to go in and deal with this fire. Even if they, even if though Trump hates LA and thinks this is how you screw over blue states or blue cities or whatever, you're harming the country by these things and you're supposed to be the president of all of America. And by the way, it's unclear who you think you're

the president for other than in trying to enrich yourself and screw over everybody else just on behalf of the right-wing oligarch. So anyway, that's where we're at today. We'll keep you posted every step of the way here as always. Hit subscribe. Let's get to six million. We appreciate you so much.
