0.169 - 28.415 Ben Meiselas

As Donald Trump's approval is plummeting, former Trump voters are speaking out right now against his heinous policies. We're seeing his approval on the economy absolutely tank his lowest levels, frankly, ever, including the first Trump administration. And we're getting lots of comments like this. So now Musk and Trump are planning to dissolve Social Security and Medicare. I did not vote for that.

29.035 - 55.283 Ben Meiselas

Here are some comments from the Fox News audience post. Trump's chaos is tanking the markets and inflation isn't reversing. Trump's own DJT stock and cryptocurrency are dropping dramatically. When he complains about the current trade relations with Canada and Mexico, keep in mind, it's his deal that he's complaining about. These are post folks from the Fox message board.

55.663 - 74.18 Ben Meiselas

Someone posts, we're already in a recession. The stock market's dropped like 2000 points in the first month of the Trump presidency. I voted for Trump. I'm a Trump supporter. But what he's doing right now is the wrong time to do it. Here's someone posted the following. Yo, tell me why my neighbor confessed. Confessed.

74.56 - 97.231 Ben Meiselas

and said, quote, my dumb ass voted for Trump, but now he's trying to take my job. Her reason, immigrants. I asked her how immigrants affected her. She had no idea, honestly. Typical red state. The good news is, she said, next time she'll vote who I vote for. Here's another Trump voter. WTF, I voted for Trump. This is not okay. You said you would support the VA and help all veterans.

And this individual is responding to Trump's plans to fire over 70,000 employees. at the VA. And as the markets were tanking, what was Donald Trump doing? He was selling Teslas yesterday with Elon Musk, selling Teslas. And then what does the speaker, Mike Johnson, have to say? Here's what Mike Johnson said about all of this. Play this clip.

121.224 - 126.827 Mike Johnson

Seen this movie before. George Soros funded groups and others, literally pay protesters. And, you know,

128.26 - 143.929 Ben Meiselas

He's saying George Soros is sending paid protesters and that's why people are upset. What's going on? We got to bring in Democratic leader, Congress member Hakeem Jeffries. Congress member Jeffries, what's going on? Are you seeing shifts in the country right now? And what are the Democrats doing?

145.06 - 167.767 Hakeem Jeffries

Well, great to be with you, Ben. Our theory of the case from the very beginning is that we've got to make sure Trump's biggest strength as of January 20th, which was the economy, turned into his greatest weakness because we knew from the very beginning that Donald Trump had no intention of trying to lower the high cost of living in the United States of America.

168.048 - 194.717 Hakeem Jeffries

He promised that costs were going to drop on day one. But we know, of course, that costs aren't going down. They're going up. Grocery prices are going up. Inflation is going up. What's going down are the retirement savings of the American people because Trump is plummeting the stock market and crashing the economy in real time. And we're going to stay on this issue.
