LMFAO!! Trump just went off on a reporter!

"You're a STUPID person, and you happen to be!"

REPORTER: "You promised to bring inflation down. It's now at its highest level in three years. Are your policies not working? What's happening?"

TRUMP: "If you go back to just before the war, for the last three months, inflation was at 1.7%. Now, we had a choice. Let these LUNATICS have a nuclear weapon. If you want to do that, then you're a STUPID person, and you happen to be!"

TRUMP: "I doubled the SIZE OF IT you DUMB PERSON! You are NOT a smart person."

Trump is channeling his inner Yoda.

These urinalists/democRATs are still mad that President Trump ended the USAID funding to study transgender frog development in Guyana.

Nah, the commie “reporters” are just upset that Trump survived all the assassination plots they have tried over and over and over again

The Democrats run on inner-city public transport and electric vehicles. They are oblivious to issues in flyover country.

It’s a legit question.

It is a legit question... that should have been asked more forcefully of the previous administration. They gave Biden a pass for skyrocketing energy prices and inflation due to stupid energy policy and tangential support for Ukraine. They're going after Trump for removing an actual threat with less than half the cost to energy and inflation.

I agree the Democrats are going to run on this... but don't pretend the Press are impartial.

I think you underestimate the vast majority of Trump’s own voters are not going to be placated with the nuke reassurance. Including baby boomers and those with Cold War memories. Even if Iran had nukes, it’s hard to convince the public that they’d be stupid enough to use them. Mutually assured destruction seems to keep North Korea and Pakistan in check.

But actually North Korea just changed their constitution to say if their leader is taken out Ayatollah style, drop a nuke.

So if anything this whole ordeal has made the world more dangerous not less.

The Dems will run on the economy because “It’s the economy , stupid.”

Nobody cares about the Ukrainians nobody gives a sh&$ about Venezuela- the 2 weeks in Iran is getting to be a full-time job, the 50 million illegals are still here. Pain at the pump means pain everywhere else because—“ if you bought it, a truck brought it.” The Republicans are going to be washed away in the flood. Never to be seen again.

Yes it remains to be seen how Americans - average ones - benefit from Venezuela, at least right now. It’s timing & optics heading into the midterms. People want Trump to talk about kitchen table issues, but all they see on TV are oil execs at round tables and gas prices going up.

Why is he making ads for the Democrats midterms?

Trump on Iran War:

Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal?

Trump: Not even a little bit. I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation

“b-but it’s taken out of context!” Run with that and see how it goes. Reagan was smart to smile and wave at the press and pretend he couldn’t hear them over the helicopter.

and food going up and insurance and everything else. No one can afford a vacation. Young people can’t buy houses and all we hear about are campaigns in foreign countries. No one wants to ride the Totanic down to the bottom. Gotta give us all a breath and focus on America.

Revisiting Charlie Kirk’s RNC Speech:

“...The Democrats say instead of owning a home, you’ll rent a 400 square foot studio apartment. Instead of owning a car, you’ll rent a scooter using some app. Their vision is this, limit your dreams, give up, aim lower, be content with less. If you’re a twenty-something in America, life has been really tough. You’ve watched home prices rise 47% since 2020. 47%. Home ownership is now out of reach, unless you make over $106,000 a year. Since I last spoke at the Republican Convention four years ago, I’ve become a husband and father.

According to current projections, one-third of today’s young Americans will never get married. The average American is having fewer children than ever before. Why? It’s because for far too many, they simply can’t afford them. The basic things our parents enjoyed are increasingly out of reach for Gen Z and Millennials.

You see, the American dream has become a luxury item for the wealthy elite...while Gen Z has to pinch pennies just so that they can never own a home, never marry, and work until they die, childless…”
