$4.50 Gas, a $1 Billion Ballroom, and a Trump Who Told You He Doesn't Care
The president said, on camera, that he doesn't think about Americans' financial situations. "Not even a little bit." He said it while inflation hit a three-year high, gas hit $4.50 a gallon, and the war in Iran crossed $29 billion. Then he got on a plane to China.
This episode covers all of it.
Trump's "I don't think about anybody" quote in full context. FBI Director Kash Patel calling a senator a drunk under oath instead of answering whether he shows up to work sober. Lindsey Graham screaming at Defense Secretary Hegseth because the war he sold is falling apart. Israel publicly lobbying for more strikes while Americans pay $4.50 at the pump. The DOJ threatening to subpoena journalists for reporting the truth. Trump mocking JD Vance as a "little boy" for being evacuated faster during a shooting. Three unexplained dental visits in five months. The Supreme Court letting Alabama gut its court-ordered voting maps mid-election. Tennessee stripping every Black legislator of their committee assignments. A racist streamer terrorizing Nashville. And why the Democratic Party's answer to all of this has been a fundraising email while Zohran Mamdani proved in 131 days that the problems were always solvable.
The system is working as designed. Just not for you.
