Very odd behavior indeed. A very demented Donald Trump keeps posting photographs of himself pointing his finger at Democratic House Leader Hakeem Jeffries, almost like a schoolyard bully. This is how Donald Trump is behaving right now as the government has shut down. Also in that photo, you see the Trump 2028 hat. Apparently, that's all Donald Trump was talking about during that meeting with Democratic House Leader Hakeem Jeffries. and Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer. Do you like my Trump 2028 hat? When I previously spoke with California Governor Gavin Newsom, he said that Donald Trump just repeatedly was talking about the Trump 2028 hat. This is a very deranged human being, and it's not funny at all as he talks about being dictator for life, especially as Americans are suffering by this shutdown that Donald Trump forced.
We're getting bad news. job numbers this morning as well. What we learned in this Trump economy from the ADP private payroll numbers that just came in is that US private sector businesses lost 32,000 jobs in September. That's far below the expected gain of 51,000 per payroll processor ADP. And then the August private payroll numbers were revised down by 57,000 to negative 3,000. So a big drop there as well. We're seeing small and medium-sized businesses suffer the biggest job losses. And I'm sure you all know, just whether it's yourself or people you're friends with or just people who you're talking to, the job market right now is in a condition that we normally see during recessions and great recessions.
It is absolutely frozen and it is not in a good situation. So you had all of the kind of MAGA Republican leaders go on the various kind of state regime Fox shows and went on other corporate news and they tried to spin this government shutdown as, you know, the Democrats fault or I mean, here you had J.D. Vance moments ago, and he was on state regime media, Fox, and they were talking about the meeting. It's a very serious meeting, right? It should have been a very serious meeting between Donald Trump, Republican leaders in the House and Senate, Maga Mike Johnson, Senator Thune, Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, and Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer, right? Like, We expect it to be handled with the seriousness to avoid a shutdown.
And Democratic leaders showed up with a level of seriousness there. And J.D. Vance and the state regime media hosts over here are all like, but did you like the Trump 2028 ads? How funny is that? How funny are the Trump 2028 ads? Folks, this is not normal behavior. This is not how adults should be behaving. But this is the Trumpification of a significant portion of our media ecosystem. And right now, how these right-wing politicians behave. It's not funny. It's not even humorous. Like, it's immature. It's just, it's grotesque. Just watch for yourself. Here, play this clip.
So can you give us some insight into what they talked about, maybe how we can come to a compromise? And the hats?
The Trump trolling them with 28 hats.
Yeah. Thank you, Lawrence. That's the most important part. They're also the Trump 2028 hats, which I think made the majority or the minority leader in both the House and the Senate very uncomfortable.
