Why is Fox News in panic mode over Trump?

Ben Meiselas 0:00
State regime media known as Fox was in free fall yesterday as Donald Trump continued to collapse the market, collapse the economy. And as China and their leaders were mocking him, you had Caroline Leavitt, Donald Trump's chief propagandist, going on Fox and literally begging China to give Donald Trump a call and then saying, look, American consumers are the best China. Just give us a call, will you? Yep. Here, play this clip.

What did Caroline Leavitt ask China?

Caroline Leavitt 0:29
And China knows that too, Sean. And as President Trump directed me to say yesterday, it remains true tonight. The ball is in China's court. They need to do business with the United States. They need the best thing on the face of the planet, and that is the American consumer. And we are the best place in the world to do business, and the rest of the world knows that, and that's why Japan was here today to negotiate a trade deal.
Ben Meiselas 0:52
That's supposed to be strength. That looks like total weakness to me. I thought you had the cards, Donald. I thought you had the cards. By the way, China is mocking Donald Trump for saying they don't have the cards. Then Caroline Levitt kind of glitches here where she's like, I don't have any updates because I haven't spoke with Scott Besson, the Treasury Secretary. Then she goes, I just spoke with the Treasury Secretary, Scott Besson. It's like, what in the world are you talking about, Caroline? Play this clip.
Caroline Leavitt 1:20
I don't have an update for you. I actually just left a dinner with the president and Patty Morin and some great faith leaders in celebration of Holy Week. So I haven't checked in with our secretary of treasury or Jameson Greer, our United States trade ambassador yet. However, I did run into the secretary of treasury and he told me the meetings were productive and they were moving along and they were here.
Ben Meiselas 1:40
Then Donald Trump was on Fox and he makes this very strange, bizarre, and outright disgusting comment about the Holocaust. And he said, some people were treated good.

What controversial comment did Trump make about the Holocaust?

Donald Trump 1:50
Here, play this clip. You know, the Holocaust, as bad as it was, there were a lot of stories where people got helped.
Joe Rogan 1:56
Yeah.
Donald Trump 1:57
They said there was zero. He said, all we got was slapped. We didn't get helped. We got slapped.
Unknown Speaker 2:03
Yeah.
Ben Meiselas 2:04
hell is he even talking about? Then you have Pam Bondi, as Aaron Rupert says, grotesquely claiming Abrego Garcia's wife and children, who are American citizens, are better off without the husband and the dad here. They should be thankful to the Trump regime for putting him in the concentration camp in El Salvador. This is what Attorney General Pam Bondi says. Play this clip.

What did Pam Bondi say about immigrants?

Pam Bondi 2:30
Maryland is safer because he is gone. And that woman that he is married to and that child he had with her, they are safer tonight because he is out of our country and sitting in El Salvador where he belongs.
Ben Meiselas 2:47
And then the Trump regime had this guy on Fox who kind of glitched yesterday when he was talking about whether or not we were going to experience a recession, which most economists believe we're heading into a recession, a great recession, or even worse. Watch this Trump regime official glitch on live TV.

Are we heading toward a recession?

Donald Trump 3:05
Play this clip. And so financial markets are forward looking. They'll start to realize that CEOs are forward looking. They'll start to realize that also. So is there volatility in the short run? Absolutely. Is a recession possible? Well, you know, it's not my base case, you know, but, you know, making predictions is difficult for anyone.
Rocket Money 3:22
So you ever go through your bank statement and you think like, what the hell am I still paying for this? That was me a few weeks ago before I signed up for Rocket Money and I gotta say this app is a game changer. Rocket Money is a personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your spending and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. I opened it up and bam, there were three subscriptions I hadn't used in months. Rocket Money helped me cancel them in just a few taps, no phone calls, no email chains, just done. It also sends me alerts if a bill goes up and helps me keep a monthly budget.
