Marjorie Ends Trump With THIS POST

Marjorie Taylor Greene is at the forefront of a growing political backlash against Donald Trump, using high gas prices—particularly in states like Georgia and California—as a central critique of his presidency. The spike in fuel costs, driven by global energy shortages and the war in Ukraine, is portrayed not as a neutral economic issue but as a symbol of Trump’s poor foreign policy and lack of accountability. This criticism is amplified by polling data showing Trump’s worst-ever net approval on inflation, even worse than past presidents including Carter and Reagan. Notably, his disapproval is negative across all party lines—Democrats, independents, and even Republicans have turned against him on inflation. This widespread disapproval suggests a growing trend of Republican defections in the upcoming midterms, potentially leading to significant losses for Trump’s party. The analysis argues that Trump’s failure to manage economic issues, combined with his inconsistent messaging on war and price controls, has eroded public trust. While critics like Greene are seen as cynical or politically opportunistic, their actions reflect a broader shift within the Republican base. As inflation continues to rise and polling deteriorates, the narrative suggests Trump is not only out of favor with voters but is increasingly isolated within his own party, setting the stage for a potential political reckoning in the midterms.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is doing everything she possibly can to humiliate Donald Trump and I love it. I absolutely love it because she's right. Now, she's not right because Marjorie Taylor Greene has seen the light. No, Marjorie Taylor Greene is a cynical actor trying to position herself for the future. And she's not right because she's come up with these ideas on her own, but because Donald Trump's presidency has gone so poorly that it is even obvious to someone like Marjorie Taylor Greene that he is the worst president in American history and that he is going to be wiped out in the midterms. Marjorie Taylor Greene isn't just talking about the files today. She is driving home a point that is going to cost Donald Trump the house and likely the Senate at this point. And it is beautiful to watch. It is beautiful to watch the infighting because I know, I just know it is only going to get worse after the midterms because we know that Donald Trump has already started blaming Republicans. Now, we're going to get to that clip of Marjorie Taylor Greene, but I just have to say that the blame that Donald Trump is already pushing around his own party is the reason why I am so excited about this clip. Because I do really believe that the Maga Civil War is going to be ruthless and angry and humiliating and really fun to watch with popcorn and a soda. But because Donald Trump is going to say it's everyone's fault but his and there will finally be Republicans who are willing to not just distance themselves from Trump but directly starting to lay accountability at his feet and he's not going to like it. He's not because he is already trying to pass off all the failures of his presidency is not only totally worth it but also in accomplishment somehow and it's what Trump had to say about gas prices in North Carolina is why Marjorie responded with her video. We're going to get to that clip, we're going to get to that post, but it's because Trump said this. I have to say you have a little higher, you have a higher, it's a very inexpensive price to pay for what we've done. Remember that it's a little more, it's even if it was frankly, even if it was a lot more. But that's going to come tumbling down, that's going to be like a rocket ship in reverse. You could make the case that gas prices going up were, you know, worth it for a war if you knew what the war was about, but you don't. You don't. There was plenty of polling that showed that Americans understood and were willing to pay a price, maybe not willing to pay a price, but more understood rising cost as it was related to Putin's invasion of Ukraine. Putin's attack on Ukraine because that spiked energy cost around the world. Now that wasn't the fault of Joe Biden. It wasn't what Joe Biden was pushing for, but it was understood that supply chain issues, post-COVID, and Putin's assault on Ukraine is the reason that we saw energy prices spike. When people understood that and they wanted to be supportive of Ukraine, they wanted to be supportive. Nobody wants to support this war, nobody wants this war, nobody understands this war, least of all Donald Trump. So you cannot tell us that the war is justified, a war that you won't even call a war, you're calling it a conflict or a skirmish, that not only is it justified, it justifies these higher prices and will keep paying them for an unknown period of time because you cannot tell us when the war is going to end because you don't really care about it. He doesn't care. And that's why Marjorie Taylor Greene made this post about high gas prices, the thing that is single-handedly, maybe more than anything else, tanking Donald Trump's presidency. $8.49 for diesel and California, let me tell you something, it's $6.59 in Georgia. I don't care if it's Georgia or California, it's way too high. This is ridiculous. Let me look, everything you buy, your food, your supplies, all of your goods gets delivered by diesel. The war in Iran has got to stop. This is Trump's home, this should not be this high, it needs to end, ridiculous. There will be a lot more of this. It's not just going to be from Marjorie, it is going to be from other Republicans. We saw Maria Salazar, the Republican in Florida who won her district by more than 15 points, put out an ad distancing herself from Donald Trump's immigration agenda, going as far as basically call it inhumane, telling Trump to stop in a seat that she won by 15 plus points. What's crazy to me is, yes, there have been Republicans who have broken with Trump on the files, there have been Republicans who have broken with Trump because of this war. But for gas prices to do it more than him being a child predator, it's just a little insane to me. After the file started to come out, yes, we saw Donald Trump's approval rating drop. We saw Maga start to tear itself apart. But I think Trump being a peto is worse than gas being expensive. I'm not a fan of the price of gas. I'm not a fan of the fact that the cost of everything is going up. But he was a petapile. He is. He still is. And that didn't get you? That's not the thing that set you off. It kind of seems like that's what should have been upsetting most of the country first. It feel like after the letter Deppstein and then the 13-year-old girl story and then the cover-up, and then the next cover-up, and then making blanch your attorney general, I feel like those things should have done it. Sure, confluence of factors, combination of things, we'll take it, but I just feel like that maybe should have mattered more. Also, to Marjorie Taylor Greene, the idea that you're not also a little bit responsible for this, you've been pushing for this guy for a while. I know that you've changed your tune lately, but you're a little bit culpable in what's going on here. You were one of the people who said that Donald Trump would usher in the no-new wars, that Donald Trump would lower the price of everything. That was always bullshit. We knew that wasn't the case, so I'm not going to 100% let the very cynical actor, Marjorie Taylor Greene, off the hook with this one because, come on, you knew what was going to happen. You knew. You knew what was going to happen. Or at least if you didn't hear too stupid to be taken seriously as someone who we should legitimately listen to. But if you want to talk about someone who is too stupid to legitimately listen to, Carolyn Levitt is still, I guess, doing her thing, appearing on Fox and making a pitch to voters which I 1,000% endorse. That's what's at stake in this election, and that's why Americans need to get out and vote like President Trump is on the ballot. If we want to have voters pretend that Donald Trump is at the top of the ticket when they go into the booth, we're good. We are 100% good. You know, I've talked a lot on this show about the Democratic Party needs to have. I have more of a message than just anti-Trump. But right now, again, price of gas, pet of presidents, never-ending war. Yeah, you can't just. You can run against Trump and be fine. You can. You can really just. You can run against Trump and just be like, "This guy sucks. How about that?" Like Abdul is money out of politics, money in your pocket, Medicare for all, and the people at his rallies can repeat that back and tell you all of his other policies. It's why he won a primary against $60 million of outside spending. It's why he's one of the future leaders of this party. He is already a leader of this party. Like, he also could just be like, "This Trump guy sucks. And JD Vance is a cock. And he's a coward, and I bet I could beat him in an Oklahoma drill and lay him on his ass." Hey, be fine. He really. That is the environment that we are in. So thank you, Carolyn. We'll take it. We will take your word. Donald Trump is at the top of the ballot. Keep on saying it. And then see what happens after this midterms. Because if Trump keeps saying it, and keeps saying it, and keeps saying it, Republicans after the midterms are going to say, "Well, you are at the top of the ticket. That's what you said." And we got shellacked. So maybe we move on from you. Because that's the conversation that's going to happen, especially with polling numbers like this on inflation. I mean, it literally leaps out of these polls. You know, Donald Trump won a second-term in office because of inflation. He was more trusted in inflation than Kamal Harris. Well, I want to congratulate Donald Trump, the President of the United States, because he is breaking records. He is literally breaking records. Yesterday, the Marquette University Law School poll came out and take a look here. Trump's worst net-approval rating on inflation minus 61.61 points underwater. That is the worst that Donald Trump has ever polled on inflation. And not only is it the worst that Donald Trump has ever polled on inflation, it is the worst that any President ever has polled on inflation. This is literally the worst net-approval rating on inflation for any President. It is truly record-breaking. Congratulations, President Trump. You're breaking records. But perhaps not in the way that you wished. Worse than Carter. Worse than Jimmy Carter. Worse than Reagan. Worse than Reagan. Worse than Biden. Worse than Biden. He is worse than all three of those. And he is worse than any poll he has ever had himself. with this minus 61 points literally the worst of all time. But the Marquette University Polls, is this the only poll this finding something like this? - No, okay, so look, minus 61 points at Marquette University Law School Poll. There was also a Fox News Poll that came out, and I guess it sort of had better news for the President of the United States. Take a look here. He's only 50 points underwater in the Fox News Poll, and while that is not as bad as the minus 61 points, it's literally worse than any President before President Trump came into office. So this minus 50 points, not as bad as the minus 61 points, but would still be a record for any other President, you combine the minus 61 with the minus 50, and you go, oh my goodness gracious, this is a huge, huge problem. I mean, I don't know even what the analogy is for being underwater. This is further underwater if you combine Jacques Cousteau. You combine the little mermaid, you combine Michael Phelps, you combine all those people. You still wouldn't be as far underwater as this. This is literally lower than the three of those combined, lower than the Titanic itself. - Worsen Carter, Worsen Carter. - Worsen Reagan. - Worsen Reagan. - Worsen Biden. - Worsen Biden, all right. Now, what is the party breakdown right now? - Yeah, okay, so you get the minus 50 points, you get the minus 61 points. How do you get this low? How are you breaking records that no other President possibly was able to achieve? Well, the way you do it is by being negative across all of your partisan groups. Trump's not a prover on inflation, among Democrats, 95 points underwater, that's uniformity, basically. Independence, 74, I mean, come on, what are we talking about here? And among Republicans, even Republicans have turned against the President of the United States on inflation, minus four points. Negative, negative, negative, all the partisan groups against the President of the United States on inflation. And that is a recipe for disaster for the Republicans in this midterm election coming up because of these numbers hold. The same inflation that got Joe Biden out of office, put Donald Trump in office, is going to be the inflation that sweeps Republicans out of office and out of power in Washington DC leaving Donald Trump a very lonely man, indeed. - So the fact, the worst numbers we have ever seen, the worst numbers we have ever seen. Truly, the worst, I'm gonna say it again, numbers we have ever seen. That is where Donald Trump stands right now. And it is only going to get worse. These things won't get better. The price of gas is only going up. The price of diesel is always only going up. The effect it will have on all other commodities is only going up. He's the worst President in American history. It's not comparable, and he's gonna get wiped out. And we're gonna cover it all. And if you want to support that as always, you can hit that subscribe button, leave a like on this video. If you stuck around at the end, drop a blue heart in the comments. Keep on fighting y'all, don't let 'em silence ya. And until next time, I'll see you soon.
