The transcript details a deeply absurd and politically unproductive press conference between Donald Trump and Dana White, head of the UFC. Trump publicly offered White the job of press secretary, prompting immediate flattery and later a sharp refusal. The event is criticized for its extreme political absurdity, including a question about a potential fight between Trump and Joe Biden, which reflects a troubling lack of focus on real national issues. Trump’s responses on Iran, election integrity, and national security—such as dismissing allegations against tech CEO Jensen Huang—are portrayed as factually flawed, incoherent, or ideologically driven. His claims of election fraud and repeated falsehoods about nuclear disarmament further underscore his pattern of dishonesty. The incident reveals a broader pattern of political disengagement, emotional outbursts, and disrespect for journalistic norms. Trump’s dismissive reaction to impeachment efforts against Pete Hegseth and his treatment of the press conference as a campaign rally highlight a profound disconnect from democratic norms. The video serves as a critical commentary on the erosion of political legitimacy and public trust under Trump’s administration, emphasizing that such events are not only unprofessional but deeply damaging to American governance.
The stupidity in this country with Donald Trump as president of the United States really just never ceases to amaze me. He just concluded a very bizarre press conference at the White House with Dana White, the head of the UFC who he allegedly offered the job of press secretary to. And this press conference was an utter disaster from start to finish. I want to show you some clips, including Dana White being brought up to the podium to speak to the press. It was all very strange. Please make sure to subscribe down below, drop a like on the video, comment. Let me know what you think about this story. And let's start here with the moment where Donald Trump called Dana White up to the podium and Dana White immediately, like just like that, started slaubering on Donald Trump, sucking up to him in front of the press. Watch this. I think he probably liked the job. He loves the country and he would do a hell of a job. So you were here. He was here and Dana, please say a few words. Dana White, thank you. I've always wanted to do this. Who has the first question? I have zero political aspirations. That was at a fight for Zufo Boxing in London when he called me and told me that he had done this in the last 24 hours of my life has been insane. But yeah, good to see you. Yes. I have a question. I think there was a pound for pounds. UFC cage got between President Trump and former President Joe Biden. Same age, same weight and considering White styles make fights. Could you give us an analysis of who-- The toughest, most resilient human being that I've ever met in my entire life. Many times during, you know, the last 8, 10 years, whatever it's been, I have told him, why do you keep doing this? Why are you doing this when he was going through everything that he went through? And I mean, it's tough and as resilient as I thought he was, after he got shot. Yeah. He is a one of one unique human being and yeah. Would it be a knockout? I mean, wow, you know, the glazing of Donald Trump by Dana White is just disgusting. And how about that idiot right wing journalist who, the first question that is asked to Dana White is like, who do you think would win in a cage fight between Joe Biden and Donald Trump? Is that really the top of mind for the American people? The Republicans will never learn. They will never learn. Americans just resoundingly rejected the Republican Party and the stupidity of Donald Trump's White House at the midterms. And they're all doing stuff like this. Dana White's at the White House and he's being asked about Joe Biden versus Donald Trump in a cage fight. Now, the journalist did say at the same age, you know, who do you think would win? The answer is Joe Biden. But that's besides the point. Dana White went on to say, would it be a knockout victory for Trump? He said, it would be very bad. Yes, I think it would be very bad because apparently this is something very important to the American people. Caitlin Collins asked Dana White, do you tell the president no to the press secretary job? And Dana White said, I don't tell the president no to anything. No, I didn't say no. And then later on the press conference, he does. So I don't know. Watch this. Just to confirm, did you tell the president no to the press secretary job? I don't tell the president no to anything. I know. I didn't say no. I literally everybody, every media outlet was calling me and I didn't want to be disrespectful and say anything until he, he said something first. We were having a very bad press day. And I said, I don't know why I thought of his name. He's been my friend for a long time. I said, you know, I think I'm going to get Dana White to be my new press secretary. And I said it to a group of the press. And that was it. I'm sort of kidding. And then they wrote the stories though, I wasn't kidding. And you were inundated. And I was inundated. And he was here anyway. We thought we'd have a little fun. And we brought Dana here. He would be fantastic. Go ahead. It's so ridiculous, man. I just like I started the video with like, you know, the stupidity never ceases to amaze me because it is just also stupid. You know, like there are so many real issues happening in this country. So many things that need to be addressed. And Donald Trump is calling these random press conferences and using that time to speak about how he loves Dana White and Dana White is doing the same. Donald Trump was also confronted by a journalist. You said the war with Iran would be ending fairly soon. But you've made this claim dozens of times over the past eight months. Why should Americans think this time is any different? And as you might expect, Donald Trump's answer was completely incoherent. Just watch. You've made this claim dozens of times over the past eight months. They won't have a nuclear weapon. And they won't have a nuclear weapon. When we knocked them out a year ago, I said I was going to do that. And I kept my word on that. Now what we're doing is we're, it's really sad as quote territory. We're keeping it going. We have the greatest military blockade ever. We have the new iron gate. Iron gate is land. So by land and by sea. And we will take care of business. Look, Iran, I hope we're going to be able to make a deal with them. But nothing's going to happen. And if we have to, we'll take very serious. We are so loaded. We just have another aircraft carrier. So we'll load it up to the gills with brand new beautiful stuff. Yeah, okay. All right. So yeah, Donald Trump's answer was no, I made the claim they won't have nuclear weapons and they won't have a nuclear weapon. I mean, is he just ignoring all the other times that he said, yeah, this war is going to be ending very soon. Is he ignoring the times where he said the gas prices are about to collapse and it's going to be so cheap and below $2. Serial liar, you know what I mean? A serial liar, pathological liar. But that's not exactly surprising. Donald Trump then chimed in on this major story involving Jensen Huang the CEO and owner kind of head guy of NVIDIA. NVIDIA is this major chip company that has like a 90% market share. So a very, very significant company. This guy is an ally of Donald Trump. And it would be really bad for the United States if he were sleeping with a Chinese spy and having an affair on his wife. Well, that's exactly what happened. That's what's being reported. And now he's being investigated by the board of his own company. Donald Trump was asked, are you going to bring up the case of Jensen Huang when you visit with him next week? And Trump said no. And then went on to defend him and his actions. And the fact that he was, you know, allegedly at least sleeping with a Chinese spy and also cheating on his wife. Are you going to bring up the case of Jensen Huang with President Xi when you visit with him next week? No, I don't think so. I mean, maybe I'm sure President Xi will ask me about it. I just know Jensen very well. I just think he's a very honorable man. I mean, he's a great, built a great company, American company. And I think he's a very honorable guy. And I feel very confident that he'll be in good shape. Now, this is such a national security risk that the head of a huge chip company, these chips are used for everything. The device that you're watching on this right now was, you know, probably one of these chips are in there. My phone, everything called the technology of using the film is probably has an Nvidia chip in there or Nvidia contributed to it in some way. So the fact that this major company that has a huge market share, the leader was sleeping with a Chinese spy, a Chinese spy, probably not good. But then Donald Trump said that he spoke to him today and that he had absolutely no idea this woman was a spy. When you went to China earlier this year in May, did you know about these alleged ties with the Chinese spy then? No, I didn't hear about it then. But a lot of people have heard about it. And Jensen totally denies that. He had, I asked him today, because I didn't speak to him today just to see if he's feeling all right. How you doing? And I asked him about that. And he had, he said he had absolutely no idea that the person in question was a spy. I asked him that question. Did you have any idea that she was a spy? He said I had no idea that she was a spy. And I really believe him. Yeah. Well, that's like the, that's like the purpose of a spy, right? Like that's not exactly the strongest defense for Jensen Huang right now, which is he didn't know that this person was a spy. Like that's the point of them being a spy, right? That they get access to a high profile individual because they're a spy. That's like their job. So nice, nice one, Donald. That's really a student analysis right there. Then Donald Trump went on to talk about how he believes the midterm is weren't fair. He's doing this again earlier today. He said does anybody really believe that this election was honest? How could the polls be so wrong? Actually, many of them were very accurate, surprisingly. Some early voting dumps were so large that it was impossible to win no matter how many people went to vote. It's all about the machines, which are far more important than the voter. And Donald Trump was asked by a journalist in this press conference. Do you believe the midterms were rigged? And this is what he said. Well, I think the numbers were terrible in terms of those early votes. You look at all those early votes. And look at another one. I'm watching Alaska. So you have a guy named Dan Sullivan. And another guy named Dan Sullivan runs. And one's a J and one's an S. And the one with a J, which is the fake Dan Sullivan, tries to have his initial change to S. He never ran before. He never was a political person before. He was fraudulently put in the race. So his answer is yes. He thinks that the midterm elections were rigged. Once again, another example of the Republicans not learning their lesson, which to be clear, I'm not complaining, right? If they want to continue to dig the whole deeper for themselves, I encourage it. Keep going, guys. You're doing great. But overall, from a political analysis standpoint, they're not learning the lesson. Donald Trump thinks he lost because Machines were rigged or the election.
was rigged or something. No you lost because people hate you and you suck. And you know what, I'm going to leave it there. That's all I have to say about him. People hate you and you suck. But I'm not bitter, of course. Thomas Massey also introduced articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth today, eight of them, high crimes and misdemeanors, specifically surrounding the Iran war allegations of war crimes and things like that. It's very strong. A lot of Republicans are seemingly going to defect and vote to impeach Pete Hegseth. And Donald Trump was asked about that as well. Will you stand by Pete Hegseth if he's impeached? And this is what Trump says. We all won. I had great people. You what? Massey says that he's carried out a lot. Massey's a loser, just like you're a loser at CNN. Just like your ratings are a loser. Massey is a loser. Stone called loser. What the what I was about to swear. I try not to do that on the show. But sometimes you got to say like WTF. What what was that? He just can't help but lash out at Caitlin Collins. It is so remarkable how she drives him so nuts. And to Caitlin Collins is credit. That's how you know you're doing, you're doing something right. She's a great journalist. She does a fantastic job. And the fact that he gets so angry anytime that she asks him a question just isn't indicative of that. You know what I mean? So really gross. It's just gross. I hate this guy. I don't know if that was clear. Donald Trump's press conference did end however in a very bizarre way by him asking Dana White straight up like to his face. Do you want the job? And Dana White said no. He snubbed his good friend in front of the entire country. Watch this. And waiting. He's a very very person. So let me ask, wait, wait, wait. So let me ask you the big question. Dana, would you like to be press secretary of the United States of America? Look at us. I didn't have this behind you all the time. The White House question. Would you like to energy just want to stay with this ridiculous UFC? Thank you for the officer. For the officer I have no, no, I don't not want to be involved in this. I am devastated to hear this. Goodbye everybody. And then they eventually walk out. He starts doing his campaign clap. You know like how he ends his rallies. He just like started clapping and he's shaking Dana White's hand. It's like genuinely like he was treating this as a campaign rally. And some of these right wing journalists were basically acting like his fans. I mean the one that was like, who would win in a fight? Donald Trump or Joe Biden? Come on. By the way, Joe Biden from Scranton, Pennsylvania, who, you know, had a modest upbringing versus the billionaire who's been spoon fed. Who do you think is going to win? Not to chime in on the stupidity of the question. I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I have a personal opinion on the matter, but I will leave the video there. Thank you so much for watching. I just had to cover this ridiculous press conference. It really means the world that you're here and the community we've built. And I keep saying this, but the community we've built is so amazing. And I am so honored and privileged to be going through this insanity with you folks. It makes it so much easier. That we have each other. We're like-minded. And we don't think that this is entertaining nor normal, which is great. I will leave it there. Have an amazing rest of your day and we will talk soon.
