Donald Trump could handle the heat. He just walked away from the press during an impromptu pressur on the rainy tarmac in Pennsylvania. Where he is set to speak and just a little bit. Let me show you as he walks away from the press.

He's holding this umbrella. He doesn't know how to close the umbrella. Let me show you what goes down. Then I want to really go through what went down during this disaster, pressur, and how Donald Trump

just got the worst poll yet of his term. Here, let's play this clip. Donald Trump was asked before he walked away from the press. That you just saw right there. So when will the IAEA, the atomic energy agency?

When do those inspectors get to go in? You promised that they're going into Iran and Iran says they're not going in at all. So when does that happen? And that's not in the memorandum of understanding Donald. Watch what he says.

Let's play this clip.

When will those inspectors actually be on the ground?

Happy appropriate time. Happy appropriate time. There's no rush, but they'll be on the ground at the appropriate time. And Donald Trump says that anybody who doesn't like this Iran deal needs to be educated, even if they're friends of mine.

Let's play this clip.

Well, I think anybody that's been critical of it has to be educated, even if they're

friends of mine. Because we have Iran in a position that nobody's ever had. This should have been done for 47 years by other presidents. And we have Iran in a position where their military has been totally wiped out. I think that the Senate and the House is just also asking for a briefing of the memorandum

of understanding, because it also provides sanctions relief that requires congressional authorization under the law. Donald Trump then says that the reflecting poll looks amazing. We're going to put the water back in. You've never been better as a country.

Let's play this clip. Oh, including the thing that, you know, with the Vandals hit the reflecting poll, but we'll get that back very quickly. In fact, I will say this morning, I said people over, they said, "Look, it looks absolutely beautiful."

But we're going to have to let a little water out and fix it, and then we'll put the water back in. But you're so you understand, so our country is doing really well. And we're going to keep it that way. We should be noted at the same time, Donald Trump has installed an AI surveillance detection

system at the reflecting poll right now. There is an AI surveillance detection with dozens of plain clothes, officers, arresting people by the reflecting poll right now. Next Donald Trump says that in Iran, they have a hunger problem.

They will be buying all of the corn and agricultural produce from American fa...

farmers will get rich.

And Iran has a major inflation problem.

I think Donald Trump yet again is projecting.

Let's play this clip. Keep to Iran because they have a hunger problem. They have a food problem. They have a medicine problem. They got a lot of problems.

And they have an inflation. They're inflation now, just at 300%. So they have a lot of problems. A reporter asked Donald Trump to respond to the fact that truckers are suffering right now, and that they're also worried about losing their jobs to AI and other technology.

Truckers have had a really rough in this economy as well with Trump's tariffs against the world. And Trump's like, that's not true. They're doing amazing. They're rich.

Truckers have never been richer.

No. It is the hardest job to get because people are so excited about it. You're playing this clip. You're not the speaker's thunderous truckers are at high risk of losing their jobs to AI, because of wealth.

Nobody's ever seen a time like this. We have right now so many jobs that are going to be available. So then the reporter said, yeah, you mentioned yesterday that the Interior Department has videos and photos of the vandalism. So we called the reporters says this is when Donald Trump just basically walks away.

We've called and we don't see any no one showing us those photos. So while you're hiding it now, it's super secret to your play this clip. You mentioned yesterday that the Interior Department has video in photos, we reached out to them and they haven't shared it with us at all. They were arrested.

I think six people on the reflective boat.

So the reflecting pool looks fantastic. I just got pictures of it. It's beautiful. But somebody went there with a knife and cut it. They cut it up good.

And then they cut it 250 point slip in the form of lots of little slips, a real, horrible stuff and they destroyed the grass, we put a brand new big loaded grass out there and they destroyed it. So it's all big fixed. But it's a shame. So I understand five or six people are arrested.

The Interior Department can refer to you on that. And I hear that I hear that they have six people under investigation. As I noted at the outset, Donald Trump's approval right now is 30% according to a new ARG poll, very credible pollster over here, Trump's approval at 30% even on state regime media Fox.

They're saying how horrible Trump is. They're also saying the Marist poll shows Trump's approval deeply underwater, not exactly firing on all cylinders, is how state regime media refers to it. Let's play this clip. Yeah.

I mean, if you look back to, you know, obviously the election here is not a presidential year. It's a midterm year. But if you look back to 1992, for example, George H.W. You've Bush had a 90 something percent approval rating after the Gulf War.

He lost the presidency that year, because people made up their minds about the economy very early in that year. We've only got a few months now until the midterms. This Marist poll shows that the president's not exactly firing on all cylinders when it comes to approval of his handling of the economy, 33% disapproving 66 and 60% rather.

There's 33% approval ratings, 3 points lower than Biden at his worst. How does the president improve on that number before people make up their minds about the midterms? John, you know, as well as I do that. If the American people trusted these polls, you know, if President Trump wouldn't be an office right now, but time and time again, he has defied the polls, because he is in touch

with what the American people care about.

That's why he's going to Pennsylvania today to talk to those folks who contributed to his

landslide victory, and I would say it's a little personal for me actually grew up right outside of the Lehigh Valley where the president is visiting today. And so I know firsthand what those folks care about. They care about the issues that the president is delivering on. And then Donald Trump had to trot out his maga sick offense.

This is Maga Republican Congress member Pete Sessions. Let's play it. Do you believe there's evidence of a 300 foot cut at the bottom of the reflecting pool? You know, I don't know. I would say that the president definitely has got it.

I assume law enforcement has that. I assume this is against the law and I assume somebody will follow up from the part service. You've got Maga Republican senators like Roger Marshall saying, y'all like selling the art of the deal. Everybody needs to go read the art of the deal because the negotiations take in place

here and abroad. This is how you're supposed to negotiate. This is how you do it here play this clip.

I, you should, everyone should go read his art of the deal book if you did.

If you haven't yet, I made my entire staff read it as a freshman member of Congress and

I refer back to it all the time.

It tells shows who Trump was in his raw state and I think he's just negotiating. And I just got to tell you he keeps throwing things on the wall.

Some of them stick, but we have never moved so fast and I'm just excited about that.

I mean, gasoline dropped four and a half dollars a gallon to three and a half dollars a gallon last week alone. Our, our economy is just setting there ready to just break white open back in Kansas. Manufacturing is just bursting at the seams, our cattle industry is, is great. So the, you know, the, the, the bank would spend set.

Want to bring in Maryland governor West, more governor, more great to see. I don't know where they're living or what and the world is going on. They're, I just heard, right? Because that is not reality. When I do these openings, I kind of know what I'm going to say, but then as I'm saying,

I sometimes like, why, what are they saying? What are they doing?

I mean, you know, as people are going to the polls today in the primaries in Maryland,

as people are thinking about the midterms. I mean, these mega Republicans are thinking about how to help Donald, more weird Trump conspiracies. Just to talk about this moment, though, that we're, that we're in right now and just, what are people in Maryland feeling?

I think people are, are feeling that there's pain and it's coming from the president.

You know, people, people look to the president to try to ease their pain. Not look to the president and, and, and ask him to stop causing them pain. You know, where, whether I'm talking to folks in Lannum or folks in Lona Coney, in Maryland, I can tell you what they're talking about is the fact that gas prices have skyrocketed. What they're talking about is the fact that their energy prices have gone up over 15%

in a year and what they're talking about is that groceries because inflation is the highest that has been now in three years that they're going to the supermarket and they're actually literally putting things back because they cannot afford what they normally buy. That's what they are seeing. And so, so when, when we are hearing the president talking about things like, you know, ballrooms

and, and reflecting polls and fighting wars that no one understands what we're doing that's causing the American people $200 billion and losing over a dozen service members. I think it's very clear to the people of this country that they're a priority and their lives is not the priority of this administration.

I think the American people get that this guy's not a deal maker.

Like, I mean, the, the whole deal maker thing with him has always been the biggest fraud.

He never makes deals. He rips them to shreds. He's good at spreading conspiracies to DRAM, bringing people together. And I just see, you know, he goes around this deal. That deal, this deal, I'm like, you haven't done anything other than cause pain and suffering.

And you look at this memorandum of understanding. Now, look, I, I hope it succeeds because I don't want to go into war, you know, but when you look at it and you look at what Obama did with the JCPOA and you have, you know, Donald Trump saying, yeah, the MOU may say this and the reality may be that we're giving Iran all of these things, but there's a super secret deal that nobody actually

knows about and Iran has to say the things are happening to please their domestic audience in Iran, but we know what's really happening. I go, actually, you're projecting, you're lying to your domestic audience here and everything that we're seeing you giving the money to Iran, Iran, control and the straight was visibly right there.

It's strange thing when I'm saying, my government may be less credible than them at this point. Right here.

Well, I, I think what he's showing is he is a great deal maker for himself.

He cuts great deals for him and his family. It's the reason why he has made billions of dollars since he's become the president in the United States again. It's the reason that he is now done over 3700 trades, where he's literally trading on companies that are actually benefiting from his policies while the rest of us get, get hose.

But if you're looking at actual, who's thinking about it from a holistic perspective, frankly, I think it was the Iranians who actually wrote the art of the deal and not tunneled Trump because they have actually gotten anything that they have hoped for out of this deal. And you know who is not, it's the American people where the American people continue to pay more in gas, continue to pay more in energy, continue to wonder why hundreds of billions

of dollars are getting sent overseas and the president has not given us any understanding as to what we're doing, what the engagement is, or what the goals of this entire operation are. And so this is deeply frustrating because what we now have is there has not been a change of regime.

The Iranians still control the straight of hormones. And we are seeing how Americans continue paying the toll for something that the Iranians are clearly winning out right now. Talk about primary day right now in Maryland, big deal. I know you've got a whole slate right there that you've been endorsing and pushing

a people who are going to make an impact talk about why it's such an important day, you know,

People shouldn't be sleeping on the fact that it is primary day in Maryland.

That's right. And knowing that these elections matter, that's oftentimes people say, well, it's not a presidential year. But here's the thing. The people who are your state elected officials, your mayors, your delegates and your

state senators, they are going to have just as much impact on your life as who is sitting inside of the oval office because that's our ability not just to push back, but our ability to push forward. And we're really proud about the work that we've been able to do and why we know there's still more work to be done.

But if you look at what's happened just in our first session, in our first term, that we've

been able to now have record drops within violent crime. In fact, the fastest drop in violent crime anywhere in the United States of America is happening in Maryland. That we've been able to get, that we've been able to really focus on getting our economy going again.

We've added 55,000 new businesses inside of our state and also gotten our GDP actually growing for the first time in a long time. And also, we've now been able to see how public education we've gone from 40th in the country in public education when I first took over to now watching how math and reading have jumped in every single grade that we're now seeing how fourth grade reading scores

has jumped 20 states. And we got the best superintendent in the country, the w author of the Mississippi miracle.

We got her now to come to Maryland and she's leading on the Maryland miracle when it comes

to public education. And so I'm really thankful for the work we've done so far, but we've got more work to do. And our mission is not accomplished yet. So we need people to get out there and make sure also that I am supported by the kind

of leaders in these other local races that are going to help us to advance our agenda of reading known behind it. What's the latest going on with the redistricting to stand up to Trump's scheme in Maryland, I've been hearing different things, obviously I know that you've wanted to push forward.

And then I had heard that it was stalled in the Senate, where are we with that now?

Yes. And I'm thankful that we are going to be having a special session and coming back and doing this. You know, the house was already there. The house was already voted for this.

It was just the Senate. And I'm pleased by the Senate President's decision that he's now saying that you know where we're going to come back for for this special. I look forward to working alongside of, you know, of him and all the other senators to make sure that no Marylander's voice is silent.

I wish they would have made come to the decision sooner. But I'm very grateful that now Maryland is not going to sit on our hands while we're being punched in the face. But that we are watching this all out of salt that is taking place on our democracy and our democratic values.

By the presence in the United States, every tactic that they are now trying is now being put and targeted on our communities. And so there is no way that we are going to sit silenced. When we know how hard people had to work to give us the right to vote.

And now all they're asking is, now what are you all willing to do to keep it?

And so Maryland will be moving on this and I'm excited to work with both the house and the Senate inside the state of Maryland as we come back for a special session. Governor Moore before we go, you know, lots of people are feeling existential angst right now and the pain being inflicted by this Trump regime's policies along with kind of the psychological torture of the detachment of this Trump regime to the just the sheer emotions

that people are feeling, the belittling of Americans, I know when I just speak to so many people, they just say, I'm feeling pain right now, I'm sad, I'm upset. There are glimmers of hope, but what do you say to those people as we had to do you see signs of hope? What do you want to say to those people who just feel, what can I do, how do I navigate

this? You know, we have two and a half more years of this? Yeah. I see signs of hope every day in Maryland because despite what we're seeing on the federal side, if you look at what we've been able to do, we've been able to give a tax cut to

the middle class and give a tax cut to military veterans that we've been able to raise

the minimum wage that we have been able to put money back in people's pockets, $300 million

in utility relief because we're watching how the federal government's policies continue to try to hoses, that we pass housing legislation to build more housing and build it faster despite the fact that the federal government seems to want to make the cost of materials more expensive, that when they said they were going to ban books, that need passed legislation banning the ban in the state of Maryland, you know, I'm really proud that in this time

that people are looking for leaders and in Maryland I think the state is showing what

right is supposed to look like and we've seen hard times before, you know, I come from the state of Harriet Tubman, I come from the state of of Frederick Douglass and Thurgood Marshall, we've seen hard times before and there's been two things that's gotten through, it's been God's grace and moral leadership and I think that's exactly what we are hoping

For and what we need in this moment is God's grace and also let's show them w...

leadership looks like and leadership that actually focuses on leaving no one behind.
