How are Don, Michael Fanone, and Michael Cohen reacting to the first 100 days of Trump's presidency?
I'm glad to be here with you. We'll bring Michael Fanone in in just a minute, but it's good to be here. How are you feeling on these 100 days?
You know, I'm somewhat nervous. You know, the belief is that the next 100 is going to make the first 100 look like a tea party, you know, and... Every day. It's not even like tomorrow you could wake up and say, you know, I'm going to get a day reprieve. This is going to be a nice one-day reprieve where we're not going to have this chaos. We're not going to have the lying, the gaslighting. If you watch this morning, Caroline Leavitt with Secretary Besant, you know, sitting there lying to the American people just once. talking about, you know, nonsense. And I'm so, I'm just discouraged. I mean, I want our president, you know, look, Don, you and I know each other a long time, very long time. And I remember times where you would be at, say, Trump Tower, and you would be engaging in conversation with Trump, or whether it would be on one of, on your show.
And so, and I've always said, I don't care who you vote for. You really want to see the president of the United States do well. Because when the president of the United States does well, the country does well. When the country does well, that means everybody does well. That's not where we're at. This is literally a group of like 30 people. I mean, I don't know if you saw this, but like the top 17 people Wealthiest people in this country generated over a trillion dollars since Trump took office. I mean, my friends put that number into perspective, a fucking trillion dollars. Seriously.
Yeah, you can you could pay for a lot of the national debt. You could give everybody in this country enough money to really live on if you have that much money. Right.
I think you could give everyone something like 10 million dollars per person. And and by the way, that would only amount to something like 300 billion dollars per Right. Think about that. And you got a trillion. So, in fact, you could actually give a whole lot more than that. It's nuts. I mean, it's just nuts. While people are concerned about their jobs, they're worried about getting product from, you know, from China. They're worried about fighting with our maple loving cousins from the north in Canada. I mean, what? Why? Why is all I just keep saying? Where where's the where's the purpose behind any of this? Let me also say to everybody, since Substack is now fixed, the glitch to match those art buttons, because what it does is it generates something with the algorithm.
So more people end up joining the conversation.
I still don't believe it's working right because our engagement is way lower than it normally is.
And it was on my life. Like a 3000.
Yeah. And it's so something's going on, but it's OK. They'll fix it and we'll get it back up. Well, and we'll you know, because when I the couple of times when I tried to invite you, by the way, it would not allow me to invite you. And from the beginning when I was setting it up. Let's bring in Michael Fanone. Let's see if it works this time. So we can talk to him about what's going on. I say the more the merrier. And then, Michael, we can talk about whatever you would like to talk about. There he is.
Hey, Mike. What's up, Mike? How are you, buddy? Good to see you again. We got two Mikes and a Don.
We were talking crap about you, Michael. It was all Michael Cohen. And you should hear the stuff that he has to say about you. None of it was good.
Bullshit, I was watching the show.
He's such a don. Mike, how were you holding up? I mean, you know, like getting by, I guess. Oh, my God. I mean, because here we are. Here we are. The first 100 days of a very chaotic and a very tumultuous 100 days. And while we're sitting here and we're talking about the first 100 days, all of a sudden, all of a sudden you have, for example, Caroline Leavitt tell you it is the most productive 100 days in the history of our country. that Donald Trump has accomplished more in these 100 days than any other president. Accomplished more, for example, in terms of bringing in investment into this country to the tune of, Caroline Leavitt said $5 trillion, Trump said $7 trillion, he also said $9 trillion.
