Reporter: "What do you say to those who are struggling to afford gas, groceries, diesel?"
Trump: You're losers. It's the greatest. If you're struggling in this economy, you're a loser.
There's your midterm messaging from the GOP
The federal government currently owes Social Security roughly $2.6 TRILLION. For decades, Social Security surpluses were invested in Treasury securities, allowing Treasury to use that cash for other federal financing while promising repayment with interest. Social Security didn’t create the national debt. It has been one of the federal government’s creditors.
They are stealing our money and then blaming the American people.
They are pushing this BS for Trump.
They are trying to claim that a deep state framed Nixon and removed him from office in a “coup”
So that when Trump gets impeached for his crimes they can rile up conspiracy goons like on Jan 6th.
Shut this shit down.
Nixon was a crook.
Anyone who reads Time's recent interview with Trump would clearly conclude that the biggest story on Earth, this day and every day, is that the President of the United States is seriously unwell and allowed to continue in office - unfit, untethered, and unchecked. Unbelievable.
If "communism is the greatest threat to our country in its history" and he wants to root it out of America, then why is he hanging pictures of communist authoritarians in gilded frames in the White House?
Jackie Kennedy never received a dime for her White House documentary. Melania Trump raked in $40M from Jeff Bezos as a bribe disguised as her documentary, for Amazon to score an $8B tax cut. Notice the difference.
Sen. @ElissaSlotkin: The authoritarian playbook is very clear. When you're at risk of losing, you either A, make up a threat that only you can protect people from, or B, find a way for federal law enforcement or the military to seize ballots or voting machines. In Hungary, Orbán used Plan A. In the run up to election day, we need to be alert and ready. If you hear in the next 34 days that there is a new security threat that you've never heard of, that somehow requires federal law enforcement or the military and not local police, an alarm bell should go off in your brain. Do not let him get away with that.
Everything George Washington and the founders feared about unhinged fanatics gaining control of the military power of the federal government is now happening. They designed a framework to prevent it, but that framework is premised on a Congress participating in government.
@SenJohnKennedy How are you possibly showing your face after this debacle?
You and Schmidt owe a robust, public apology to Smith, the Congress and your constituents.
So, it appears the MAGA cultists and @realDonaldTrump are once again blaming Nancy Pelosi for the January 6th insurrection.
So, let me ask ONCE AGAIN if any MAGA member can answer these questions:
1) Why would Nancy Pelosi orchestrate an insurrection to STOP the certification of an election HER candidate won?
2) If Nancy Pelosi was behind the January 6th insurrection, then why did @realDonaldTrump pardon all of "Pelosi's insurrectionists?"
3) If Nancy Pelosi was behind the January 6th insurrection, then why did Trump attempt to create an "Anti-Weaponization Fund" to pay her insurrectionists?
4) If Nancy Pelosi was behind January 6th, then why did Trump wait for over 3 hours without stopping "Pelosi's insurrection?"
He would have called in the DC National Guard.
5) If Nancy Pelosi was behind the January 6th insurrection, then why did Trump go on live TV and tell "Pelosi's insurrectionists" - "We love you, you’re very special?"
6) If Nancy Pelosi was behind the January 6th insurrection, then why did Trump call "Pelosi's insurrectionists" patriots?
7) If Nancy Pelosi was behind the January 6th insurrection, then why did @realDonaldTrump call "Pelosi's insurrection" a "Day of Love?"
8) If Nancy Pelosi was behind the January 6th insurrection, why would her own "insurrectionists" be looking to murder her?
You MAGA idiots are such easy fucking marks for Donald Trump's LIES and BULLSHIT bcos you lack even the most basic of critical thinking skills.
Donald Trump makes fools of you all.
Let’s be clear: I support a total ban on Congressmembers trading stock.
But Republicans are trying to package a fraudulent version of that with a bill to disenfranchise American voters.
This is politics at its worst. Put a real ban on the floor if you’re serious.
Scoop: Congressional staffers planned official trip with luxury stops in Italy and France 2 weeks before election
The weeklong bipartisan trip — which included visits to a Ferrari factory, luxury brands in Milan or Florence & day trips to the Champagne wine region — was to be led by a top aide to House Speaker Mike Johnson.
It was canceled TODAY after @NBCNews asked about the itinerary. https://t.co/y5CUzeS6KV
BREAKING: A shocking new investigation from the San Antonio Current just uncovered three more cases where Ken Paxton gave plea deals allowing sex offenders to avoid jail. This guy is legitimately evil.
Just like some of us said there’s isn’t a billion dollar Steel plant in Lee County, Iowa that’s been built & there hasn’t even been any land deals for one to be built. This sounds like a hell Mary before the Midterms with Trump and Lutnick lying through their crooked teeth.
JACK SMITH: "It's inconceivable to me how you can pardon people who beat police officers....and then villify the officers." The officers sitting behind him. 💙
Reminder that there’s an active lawsuit against Secretary of Education Linda McMahon and her husband over the cover-up of sexual abuse of children as young as 10 at the WWF. But sure, tell us how you’re going to protect children.
