How is Donald Trump showing cognitive decline on live TV?
A very lethargic-looking, low-energy, cognitively addled Donald Trump just gave a press conference in Florida. He forgot the name of his Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem. He then went on to accidentally throw Elon Musk under the bus. You can see that he was struggling up there. Total disaster. Let me show you first. Again, you'll see how kind of slow he's going right here. And he just calls Kristi Noem, Kristi, here, play this clip.
Came from all over and they were allowed to come into our country and we're getting them out in record levels, just like they came in in record levels. I want to thank Tom Holman and Christy, who is just doing, she's doing a fantastic job, governor of South Dakota, and Tom Holman, you know.
What did Trump say about Elon Musk and Doge?
Okay, and then Donald Trump says that he put Elon Musk in charge of Doge, which directly contradicts an affidavit submitted under oath by the Trump administration to say that Elon Musk is not in charge of Doge and that Elon Musk was actually just a special advisor to Donald Trump but was not controlling Doge. Donald Trump just threw Elon Musk under the bus. I wonder if the lawyers in that case are going to try to now call Elon Musk in to testify in court. Play this clip.
And I signed an order creating the Department of Government Efficiency and put a man named Elon Musk in charge. Thank you, Elon, for doing it. And he's doing a great job.
How is Trump portraying himself as a king?
Now, never normalize this. This is what Donald Trump is doing this afternoon. He made posts like this. Congestion pricing is dead. Manhattan and all of New York is saved. Long live the king. And then the White House official account reposted that with a fake Time magazine cover that says Trump and has a crown on his head. And it says Long Live the King. And this refers to the Trump administration trying to stop a New York and New York City programming to stop. to help with the flow of traffic into the city and to raise funds that the city of New York and the state of New York said was going successful. There was a deal made with the federal government under the Biden administration and Donald Trump ordered it unilaterally
cancel, that the deal should be broken. And New York is not following those orders right now. But Donald Trump is saying that he's now saved New York for doing that. And he's posting photographs of himself as a king with a crown on his head. Yes, folks, it is utterly deranged.
What are Trump's controversial claims about Ukraine?
And this follows Donald Trump posting this morning multiple posts and statements referring to President Zelensky of Ukraine as a dictator and threatening Zelensky that he, quote, better move fast or he is not going to have peace. a country left. Donald Trump then spread other Russia propaganda as well about Ukraine stealing all of this money from the United States. I'm reminded of this quote, though, from Game of Thrones, quote, "'Any man who must say, I am the king,' is no true king. Donald Trump's posts both about Ukraine and saying that he's a king, to me, it comes from a place of total and utter weakness. You can see the weakness and desperation in the posts. He thought that President Zelensky of Ukraine was going to be bullied.
Trump thought that Europe was going to be bullied and that they were just going to back down. And they're not. Europe is standing up. Zelensky is standing up. So now Donald Trump is trying to further bully Zelensky and to pursue other talking points and strategies fed to Donald Trump by Vladimir Putin, which is to say that Zelensky needs to hold an election immediately and that he's not a legitimate leader of Ukraine. Now, let me just show you this video that Vladimir Putin released moments ago, where he's basically speaking to Donald Trump in this video, saying that Trump needs to go harder on Europe right now and apply more pressure to attack Europe and to attack Ukraine. You can see how easily Putin is playing Donald Trump here. Here, play this clip.
