Donald Trump is having a disastrous morning as he continues to be outmaneuver...

Here's what he posted after making very little social media posts and having no public

appearances for quite some time. "Bessent to Newsmax," that's his Treasury Secretary. U.S. to hit Iran with unprecedented economic isolation, Treasury Secretary-Bessent told Newsmax on Thursday that the Trump administration will announce new measures against Iran.

That is Donald Trump's plan. Here is Treasury Secretary, on "Bessent to the Interview," Donald Trump just posted it is so utterly pathetic. Let's play this clip.

So when a Democrat says Iran's never been stronger, what's your reaction?

Then it's typical, typical that they're uninformed, deranged, and have no idea

what they're talking about. Now, I do recall Treasury Secretary-Bessent what was it two weeks ago. This was the headline on CNBC when the Trump regime was manipulating the markets. Then, while Donald Trump and his right wing all the garks were making lots of money while the American people were suffering.

Bessent says there may be a deal Tuesday or Wednesday to open the straight of hormones with freedom of movement. Remember this? How did that work out, also this morning, as Donald Trump continues to panic that his precious ballroom is not going to be built after the DC circuit court of appeals, blocked further

construction of the ballroom.

They did say that he can continue to build the security facilities underneath the top secret

bunkers, the specialized hospital for our cognitively infysically declining gremlin in the Oval Office, Donald Trump rushed to the Supreme Court. I'll do a whole other video on this today, but he filed a emergency petition to the Supreme Court. Please stay and block the DC circuit court of appeals ruling Supreme Court right wing justices who I appointed.

I need my golden ballroom. I kid you not. And he cites the fact that the coward that he is, he had to go on the food truck, that catering truck and abandon old air force one as the new justification why he needs the golden ballroom. He cites all of these as claim to assassination attempts that he experienced.

He says, this is why I need my golden ballroom right now. DOJ ballroom appeal. This is what he said, Trump has this is what he wrote to the Supreme Court this morning. Trump has been the target of a growing number of recent assassination attempts, including a heavily armed assassin who breached the security perimeter of the White House Correspondent

Center, a gunman who opened fire at the West entrance of the White House complex, a conspiracy to deploy drones armed with explosives at UFC Freedom 250, the threat of a missile attack against Air Force One on July 8, a sniper caught in the act by the secret service at Trump International Golf Club Palm Beach, Florida, and a sniper bullet struck the president's ear in Butler Pencilvania, "Yeah, where you don't release your medical records."

And yes, in AR-15 bullet hit his ear and it left no mark. We all know those AR-15 bullets, just leave a little tiny little scratch, of course. I mean, this guy is the most pathetic loser while the American people suffer. And then on that interview, a Treasury Secretary, Bessent, that Donald Trump is posting, he was asked.

So what are you going to do about the cost of living?

Because Donald Trump promised that on day one, electricity prices would be cut in half. Groceries would be made so much more affordable. People would be able to afford housing, gas would be under $2 a gallon right now. Gas is the highest, it's ever been ever in the history of the United States on a nation wide average over $4 a gallon at this time in August.

What would say you, Bessent, let me make a prediction. You're going to blame Biden, August 14th, 2026, because you're a bunch of pathetic losers here play this clip. People should be upset. The Biden administration towards them is 21.5% unemployment, 4% loss of purchasing power,

wages didn't keep up and for working Americans. I think the inflation level is probably 30 or 35% for things like autos and insurance rent. And we've been trying to bring those down, corn. Then you've got Mark Wayne Mullin, here's Mark Wayne Mullin, Donald Trump's home land security secretary and apparently Trump hates Mark Wayne Mullin as well.

So Mark Wayne Mullin shows up on state regime media and he goes, we all know that Donald

Trump's approval is through the roof right now that it is doing amazing here play this

Clip.

He's winning back our towns in our cities and American people are, his, his approval

rating with American people with a restoring law in order is through the roof.

This is an 80% issue. No one wants crime running in their streets. People want to fill safe in their own communities and President Trump focused on that. There was a winning message when President Trump got re-elected and it's a winning message for the midterm elect.

All right, let's check in with that right here this morning. You had Harry Nton breaking down just how in popular Donald Trump is, especially when it comes to gas prices right now, here playing this clip. Where does we do things stand in this right? Trump's standing when it comes to gas prices.

You know, I very much like you, Erica Hill, but the American people very much dislike I dare say hate President Trump when it comes to gas prices. In fact, no president has been hated more when it comes to gas prices. Look at these numbers. Okay.

Highest disapproval rate of, yeah, highest disapproval ratings on gas prices, Erica Hill said it best. Wow. Look at this. 79% 79% and an average of polls.

That is the highest disapproval rating for any president on record. Joe Biden wasn't like on gas prices, but he only reached 72% Barack Obama wasn't well like back in 2011, but he only reached 60% even George W. Bush back in 2006.

He reached 75% remember the gas prices being quite high back then, but he only reached 75%

Donald Trump takes the cake as these $4 plus gas prices continue to have, give us pain at the pump. The American people are taking their anger on the president United States. So that's the broad number. What about when you break this down by party?

Yeah. What happens when you break it down by party? Well, you don't get to 79% just by Democrats hitting your president Trump. You get to apply the fact that we see it across the board. Look at this.

Wow again. 96% of Democrats, 85% of independence and even a majority of Republicans, 52% that loyal Republican face who has been through thick and thin with Donald John Trump, even they have turned against the president United States on gas prices. You get the rare trifecta and in the case of president Trump a very painful trifecta

indeed. Donald Trump regime officials have to go do their sycophantic dance on various regime media. You had treasury secretary, Bessant. This is the golden age.

Things are so amazing. But if it's not amazing, let's blame it on Biden, meanwhile, Donald Trump is enriching himself every day to the tune of billions of dollars a year while the American people are getting screwed.

Mark Wayne Mullin is approval has never been higher.

It has threw the roof a bunch of crazy people and then you have his energy secretary Chris Wright and even state regime media is like, come on. Can't you can see that we don't control the straightive or moves like and admit that we don't control it. Watch what energy secretary Wright says here play this clip.

And then people think it is, but Mr. Secretary, you can't concede can't you that the US doesn't have total control over the straightive or moves. Look, Iran is attempting to hold the world economy hostage and to terrorize their neighbors. They built up a giant arsenal so are they causing difficulties in the region? Absolutely. But they have a losing strategy at the end that will lead to the collapse of this regime in Iran as their economy gets strangled.

But are they causing some difficulties for their neighbors and the world economy? Absolutely. But their ability to cause difficulties or declining or ability to escort and bring products out of that region is growing. They have sort of one card and it's shrinking in size. I mean, that does not sound like total control, but you have a lot of pressure everyone has had that moment where the car starts making a noise.

It definitely wasn't making yesterday and immediately you start to think so how much is this going to cost me. I'm in the car constantly including with my family, the idea of getting stranded somewhere and then getting slammed with the huge repair bill is not exactly appealing.

In all of Ukraine, nobody wants to take this job because they know that it is a job where you get to their own under the bus. No, like they're like, "Why would we want to work around Donald Trump when we know how it's going to destroy our car?" You need someone who's got experience to be the ambassador to the United States.

But literally, no Ukrainian wants that position because they know it will kill their career meanwhile. You take a look at, again, as Donald Trump destroys our alliances abroad, the one place where Donald Trump continues to give money to is to Netanyahu and Netanyahu's regime. Who brought us into this catastrophic and unlawful war is where else find finance minister Smutrich said the following. This was a speech that he gave earlier today. We have no intention of withdrawing from Gaza, from Lebanon, from Syria, despite what unfortunately they say on this on the left and this will remain.

The pro-longed war has created a new security reality. It's a new reality right now is what the Netanyahu regime is saying. We have more territory to defend. We will remain in the security zone in Gaza, in the security zone in Lebanon, in the security zone in Syria. That's what they call when they steal other people's land. They say, "That's ours, security zone."

And we're going to stay there and we're never going to leave. That is very telling. And I'll show you what just happened this morning.

A young girl filming herself inside a displacement tent in Gaza, moments before in Israeli strike there. As Donald Trump says, "My board of peace did a deal. Hamas and Israel have agreed to peace. They have agreed to peace." To hear a play, this clip. tragic and horrific. State regime media then interviewed Mago Republican Congress member Andy Harris. And guess what? They blame Biden. They say it's because of Biden, the socialism, and communism.

And that's what you should be scared. What are you even talking about? You want to know who behaves like a

freaking communist authoritarian Donald Trump in the Oval Office right now, taking over 30, 40 companies, equity stakes, Donald Trump picking the winners and losers in the economy, degrading actually free and fair and open markets. It's just Donald Trump. And his right wing all the garks. That's what this is all about. Here's Mago Republican Andy Harris for you. Play this clip. But I think America's realizing this slowly, but surely we are pulling ourselves out of the Biden

economic maylays. And it's all due to, again, the Republicans passing the one-day beautiful bill also called the Working Families and Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. That's the mechanism of all of

moving this economic engine forward. Yeah, and you need to message it because you have this pretty

large group. I want to say growing group of young educated socialists who are sympathizing with the facts. And this is one of the reasons why they don't like artificial intelligence. Despite its immense power once unleashed is because it's taking money out of their pocket. They spent money on their educations. They don't think they can get a job. It's just something that needs to be massaged. Well, look, I agree with you. I'll just put air quotes around education because obviously

they're not educated. Socialists and works anywhere in the world. You have to go back to this one. Yeah. Yeah. We got this footage of Heggsith. I showed you the clips yesterday or the earlier this morning as Heggsith and Nepentegon are attacking the Midas Touch Network had tip to Aaron Parnas for his powerful reporting exposing the conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln and the USS George H. W. Bush and previously the USS Gerald Ford. So I showed you Heggsith before

saying everything's amazing. The ships are doing great. Our sailors and our marines have never

been happier, which we all know is total crap. We all know is a lie. And we know the Trump regime not only treats our sailors and marines horribly. They defame our sailors and our marines every day. But Heggsith, like I mean, is this guy on, I mean, yeah, what in the house? He's talking about

Q, but he's like, oh, they're gonna, they're gonna work with us whether they ...

are these Trump regime people are a bunch of predators. They are a bunch of freaking weirdo

sick predators. Skumbags here play this clip. I'd like to see more cooperation from Cuba.

Whether they want to or not, ultimately, you know, they've been threatening the United States for

a very long time allowing foreign nations, mine actors to spy on America from there. Are they acquiring weapons that could reach the United States of America? That might as touch network. It's exclusively reporting. Military families and service members are now describing horrific conditions across multiple ships. Human waste flooding bathrooms, feces everywhere, virtually no food, water or soap, months without port calls, exhausted crews, no end in sight. And reports for military families,

suggests the problems aboard the Abraham Lincoln extend to other ships and even our troops on land,

anonymous accounts sent to Aaron Parnas in the Midas Touch Network, describes severe conditions,

including shortages of food, water, soap, and supplies, broken water systems, limited showers,

sanitation issues, exhaustion and declining morale after months of deployment. Family say sailors are struggling with long hours, little rest, and a lack of communication from leadership. So with all of this going on, what is Donald Trump also doing today? What else? Well, you saw from our reporting getting rid of the and was the Wall Street Journal who were the first to report it. Getting rid of the magnetic launchers for the air for the planes. That's actually the modern technology because

Donald Trump wants steam launchers. So he wants to rip apart the aircraft carriers and take the

billion dollar systems that actually work to launch our ships, launch our aircrafts off the aircraft

carriers and replace it with steam catapults. That's going to cost billions of dollars and it's also not as effective. And then the US has sent NATO members, NATO allies, or probably former allies, a questionaire assessing their level of support for Donald Trump's policies, including their public backing of US foreign policy, restrictions on American military bases, and purchases from US defense contractors. A questionaire is being sent to our allies at a time where the

Trump regime is saying that they will reduce US forces in Europe unless these countries submit their answers to this questionaire and guarantee political loyalty to Donald Trump. I mean, this is a dream for Putin. This is a dream for Xi Jinping. This is a dream for anybody. Like the Donald Trump thinks that Iran wants to assassinate him. Oh, they will. You're killing the United States. You're killing our alliances. You've killed the post-World War II global world order.

That's for sure. Pathetic. He's a real. He's just a real pathetic loser. I mean, set aside your political views. This guy's a freaking loser. This is the loser. You sell loser human. Surrounds himself with losers. This is a guy who was hanging like all of his friends Epstein, Casa Blanca, Jean-Luc Bernal. I mean, this was a guy who hung out around freaking pedos. This is a guy who was found

civilly liable for sexual assault. This is a guy who claims it's locker room talk to brag about sexually assaulting women. This guy's a freaking loser. He's a he's a sicko. He's a predator. He's all

loser. Anyway, get WTF American in the book I wrote with my brothers. Have you pre-order WTF America?
