Let me read you the MAGA checklist. 👇🏼
We were going to release the Epstein files.
Until Trump showed up in the Epstein files. So we bombed people to distract from them.
We bombed a school in Iran with young kids in it.
We built Alligator Alcatraz — a sewage-backed penitentiary for immigrants in Florida — and laughed about it on camera.
We kidnapped children and didn't know where we were sending them.
We manipulated the markets. Repeatedly.
We accepted a $400 million jet as a bribe and kept it after leaving office.
We excoriated allies who stood with us for over a century.
Threatened to attack a NATO country. Treated Canada like an enemy.
We came after the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendment rights of American citizens.
Every price in America went up because of the tariffs.
Then came the tax bill - if you make a million dollars or more — $7,000 benefit.
If you make $50,000 or less — we're taking $500 away from you.
But here's what's finally moving the needle: Gas prices.
It turns out the red line for MAGA is $8 a gallon going into the 250th birthday of America.
Nobody wants to grill hot dogs and explain to their kids why it costs $120 to fill the tank.
The approval ratings are going into the gutter.
And he doesn't care.
That's the part that should terrify everyone.
I grew up with no money, but I had hope and aspiration.
The belief that the system maybe wasn't perfectly fair, but it was fair enough.
And if I worked hard enough I was going to get there for my family.
That belief is what built this country.
And what this open, brazen, transparent corruption is doing — the insider trading, the Citizens United money, the congressional stock trades, the White House market manipulation — is building a concrete ceiling over the heads of every kid growing up the way I grew up.
How do you tell that kid the system is fair enough now?
How do you tell him to keep climbing when the people at the top are changing the rules in real time to make sure he never arrives?
There was corruption in the 70s and 80s and 90s when we were coming up.
But there was a higher level of fairness. A sense, even among the wealthy and powerful, that you had some responsibility to the system that made you.
That's gone.
And when it's gone the dream doesn't die loudly.
It dies quietly. In the heart of every kid who looks up and sees a concrete ceiling where the sky used to be.
We have to fix this.
Let me walk you through what happened one hour before Trump announced the five day moratorium on Iran strikes.
$1.5 billion in notional S&P E-mini futures contracts. Four to six times normal activity.
One hour before the announcement.
Simultaneously, $192 million in crude oil futures purchased at the same time.
They made between $300 and $400 million dollars off those trades.
Trump claimed he spoke to an Iranian official to negotiate the moratorium.
The Iranians said that person doesn't exist and the conversation never happened.
This is not the first time.
It has happened multiple times. He says something. The trade goes on. He says another thing. The market moves.
But whatever you call it — they are laughing at you and they are laughing at me while they do it.
Hunter Biden sold a painting and Washington lost its mind.
These people are making hundreds upon hundreds of millions of dollars trading on information that only exists inside the most powerful office in the world.
I think we are dramatically underreporting how much money is actually being made here.
This isn't politics anymore.
This is a financial operation running out of the White House.
Let me say something every Republican needs to hear right now.
Trump does not care if you lose.
He does not care about your career, your district, your donors, or your family.
Trump cares about three things. Money. Attention. Self-aggrandizement.
That’s the complete list.
And the idea that Trump is going to help Republicans win in 2028 is a bunch of malarkey.
You want to know who Trump actually wants as his successor? Gavin Newsom.
The narcissistic nihilistic logic is this: you were nothing before I got here and when I leave, you’ll be nothing again.
That’s the supreme narcissist’s final move.
A Democrat winning in 2028 proves his point perfectly.
Don Jr. has already said they want to be the richest family in the world before they leave the presidency.
God only knows what they’re doing to get there.
So if you’re a Republican still betting your future on this man’s loyalty — understand one thing clearly.
There is no loyalty. There is only the transaction.
And you’re not the one getting paid.
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: A massive report exposes that Trump purchased $100,000,000 in bonds tied to companies DIRECTLY impacted by his policies. That smells like insider trading and is IMPEACHABLE.
Overall, Trump has made $3.4 BILLION in the last 8 months.
