Trump GOES MANIC As Everyone Turns On Him

Donald Trump has faced a significant internal backlash from his own Republican Party, marked by a sharp drop in support and growing voter distrust. New polling reveals that a majority of Republicans now favor a candidate who would restrain Trump, especially on key issues like immigration and the economy—where he once had strong approval. This shift is amplified by Republican lawmakers like Thomas Massey, who is pursuing impeachment charges against Defense Secretary Pete Hagseth over alleged unlawful actions in the Iran War, including attacks on schools that killed over 160 civilians. Additionally, the Supreme Court has decisively rejected Trump’s attempt to impose new voting restrictions on mail-in ballots, ruling that such measures violate constitutional principles and are unenforceable. The decision, supported by a 7-2 margin, protects voting access for millions, particularly vulnerable populations like veterans and disabled Americans. Trump has reacted with anger and misinformation, falsely claiming the ruling is politically motivated and entirely driven by “radical left” bias. Further undermining his position is a contradiction from Republican leader Mike Johnson, who stated the $5,000 stimulus check plan is still being developed and not fully planned, contradicting Trump’s claim of a unified, finalized Republican agreement. Johnson also cited the Strait of Hormuz, not Ukraine, as the cause of rising fuel prices—contradicting Trump’s claim. These internal fractures highlight deep divisions within the Republican Party, with Trump facing backlash not from Democrats, but from fellow party members, signaling a potential political crisis ahead.

Man, oh man, Donald Trump's day has already been ruined, not by Democrats, but by Republicans, members of his own party. He has been backstabbed and turned on, and that's going to sting for Donald Trump, because he expects everybody in the Republican party to be aligned with him 100% of the time at 24/7 to endorse what he says, endorse what he does, and so when Republican step out of line, he gets especially grumpy, and that's exactly what's happening today. So I'm going to break all of this down, we're going to talk about all of it. Please make sure to subscribe down below, drop a like on the video, comment, let me know what you think about this story. Your support means the absolute world to me. I try to emphasize that all the time, because it really does. But aside from that, let's get into it. We're going to start with this story that Donald Trump has been humiliated as a poll has revealed a brutal Republican revolt taking place right now before we get into some other things. Donald Trump wants supporters to pretend he's on the ballot come November, but new polling shows he's toxic for Republicans heading into the midterms. In a major put down for the president, voters trusted Democrats over Republicans to address two key issues that propelled Trump to the White House in 2024, immigration and the economy. Donald Trump used to be up like plus 30 points on immigration, like plus 20 on the economy. And now voters in just a year and a half trust the Democrats more. And these are issues that often dictate elections. If your approval is bad on the economy, you're probably not going to win. The latest New York Times poll released Tuesday found that far more likely voters planned to vote for a candidate who would keep Trump in check than to support him, 49% won candidates to reign in the president, while just 26% won candidates who support Trump. Only 21% said it did not matter. The polling was conducted September 8th through September 13th as the president and the Republicans. We're partying in Dallas after Donald Trump demanded that convention that they all had, which completely flopped. I mean, take a look at this, brutal poll, voters want Trump to be put in check. All respondents saying they want a candidate that, and that is 26% of all respondents. That candidate that endorses Trump, 49% saying they want a check on Trump. And look at this, here's a number that's quite staggering in the Republican Party. Only 66%, only among Republican voters say they want a candidate that supports Trump. And 10% even are saying they want a check on Trump, which is pretty high. And then independence, especially 59%, saying they want a check on Trump, which that right there is the really concerning number for Republicans that probably will send Donald Trump into a spiral one day on social media. I'm sure he's going to put out another fake polling post as he normally does. The polls are fake. They're all lying. You know, all that crap. Here's another one that's going to drive Donald Trump nuts. One of his biggest enemies, Thomas Massey, moving to impeach one of his key administration officials, Republican representative Massey moves to impeach defense secretary, Hagseth, over the Iran War. Of course, Thomas Massey lost his primary. So he's no longer going to be in Congress, come to the new Congress. But he is certainly not going down without a fight. Thomas Massey moved to impeach Pete Hagseth, Congressman Massey, a longtime critic of the Trump administration, read the articles of impeachment allowed from the House floor just after the chamber convened at noon. The alleges that Hagseth has waged the war in Iran illegally among other high crimes and misdemeanors. There's a long list of things that Hagseth has done that are likely impeachable. I mean, the Iran War, the bombings in the Caribbean, enabling Donald Trump kind of lying to Congress about the Iran War. Those are just four things that I feel are all impeachable offense. There's many, many more. Thomas Massey is bringing this stuff up. Many alleges that Hagseth initiated the conflict unlawfully, defied Congress's order to withdraw from the conflict and incurred unnecessary civilian casualties. Think about that school that Donald Trump and Hagseth bombed, killing over 160 school children, little girls. They bombed and killed. Somebody has to be held accountable for that. Massey has repeatedly clashed with members of his own party in recent years and is ending his time in office after losing the primary to an opponent backed by Donald Trump. These clashes with Trump extend beyond the war with Iran, of course, he worked to expose the Epstein files, which really sent Donald Trump into that spiral that inevitably led to him endorsing another candidate and wanting Massey out of office. But that's not where the bad news ends for Donald Trump because he also got this. The Supreme Court, his own hand-picked justices, three of them at least, have rejected his voting restrictions for mail-in ballots for this year's midterms. They said, "Not happening, you can't do it. Check this out." The Supreme Court has ruled against Donald Trump, rejecting his efforts to enact new mail-in voting restrictions for the midterms. The ruling released on Monday, so last night, by the high court means the U.S. Postal Service is expected to continue delivering ballots as usual, which is crucial. Because there are millions of Americans out there who rely on mail-in voting, maybe some of you watching at home as well. I'm thinking military members, military families, disabled Americans, veterans who are older and are less able to move these days, they need mail-in voting. Donald Trump wants to make it harder for all of those people to vote. This is a major, major ruling. Voting by mail has already begun in states, including Alabama, North Carolina, and Wisconsin. It's already started with soon more to follow, including Western states such as Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington, where elections are held primarily or fully with mail-in ballots. Donald Trump wanted to throw these states up into the air, abandoned their voting system, and check it out. All of these states are blue states, which I imagine was very intentional. Under the still-blocked USPS plan, which followed an executive order by Trump, states would have had to turn over lists of voters' names and addresses, and have certain specific barcodes on ballot envelopes in order to have them delivered by the mailing agency, and this Supreme Court saying, "What the hell are you guys doing? I'm quite surprised. It was seven to two, and of course, you can guess the two." Alito and Justice Thomas, as they always are, these two are rubber stamps for Donald Trump. The Court might as well be made up of seven justices instead of nine, because those two always vote in favor of whatever Donald Trump wants. They shouldn't even be considered as justices, really, when we're doing the math of, like, how will the court rule? It's almost like Republicans are starting with two votes, unliterally any policy. Those people wanted to, like, void the 14th Amendment with birthright citizenship, remember, these two, these freaks need to get off the court ASAP, or at least, maybe not right now, so Donald Trump can replace them, but in the future. Donald Trump also raged about the Supreme Court doing this in a long, long rant. I mean, this is, you know, pages long. Republicans just got another bad decision from the Supreme Court, one that the court system took forever to give, and then blamed it in part on no time left to implement a solution on our totally corrupt and out-of-control mail-in voting, which is a laughing stock all over the world, and where we are the only country that has to endorse such a nation-destroying scam. Of course, that's not true. Justices Alito and Thomas legends both strongly disagreed with this horrible, highly political ruling. It's a big loss for Republicans, so it's not even like he's trying to hide the political nature of it. And America itself, and makes cheating by the radical left of Democrats, much easier, and now they have an open field to do so. The Supreme Court has really let our country down. Certain justices are petrified of these crazed and depraved Democrats and are totally unable to show the courage necessary to save America. The horrible decision on terrorists will be costing the USA for many years to come, trillions and trillions of dollars. They didn't even state money paid, does not have to be paid back. Much to the benefit of entities that truly hate our country and have been ripping it off for years. Likewise, the Supreme Court's decision on birthright citizenship is a complete and total disaster. He just keeps, you know, ranting and ranting. The Court's inability and unwillingness to do the right thing for our country will go down in a very negative way in the annals of history. The Supreme Court is bullied and controlled by the radical left into making decisions that have set America back. I mean, this is pretty crazy because what he's saying is not exactly true in the way that he's saying it. I think this Supreme Court in particular will go down in history for being terrible, but because they've overturned things like Roe v. Wade or the Chevron deference, which takes power away from agencies like the EPA and gives more power to judges and courts. So there's a long list of things at the Supreme Court, or think about the immunity decision they gave for Donald Trump, where it helped him avoid criminal charges for his conduct. This Supreme Court has done a lot of bad things, not in the way that Donald Trump is viewing it though. They'll be remembered badly, but not for stuff like this. He also says these are not the people I interviewed to serve on the Supreme Court, and they are merely a shell of their original selves, a court that is costing the U.S. trillions, and then he continues to rant incoherently. He is really, really upset about this. He's not happy even a little bit. And the final thing I want to highlight for you in a real backstab kind of screwing over Donald Trump moment, whether it was intentional or unintentional, Mike Johnson somewhat contradicting Donald Trump's new $5,000 check plan in an interview or a question and answer session he had today. A journalist said, "Could the $5,000 checks be part of reconciliation? Would it be fully paid for?" And Mike Johnson says, "Well, I'm not going to get into it. It's not fully planned out. You know, there are things to figure out." Yikes. Well, I'm not going to get into details of all that, because again, we haven't had time to process that. You all have been watching me work for three years as speaker. It takes a long time to build consensus around these things. And that's a big idea that's going to take a lot of process, and we've begun some of that process right now. I spoke with the President about this late last night. He is very animated right now as the Vice President was with us this morning. We're convinced we're going to win. And so we're setting the plans in place to continue the strides that we've made to make life more affordable for Americans. Now, look, we're going to acknowledge, obviously, gas prices are too high right now. Diesel prices are too high. There's a very simple reason for it. It's tied, of course, to the straight-up hormones. We have. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay. Couple of things, Derek. Time out. Time out. One, Donald Trump has said. this $5,000 check plan is like fully done and that all the Republicans are on board and it's a certainty. It doesn't sound very certain to me. I mean, Mike Johnson is saying it's going to take a lot of convincing and, you know, it's going to be a whole process. It's going to take a long time. He wouldn't answer questions on if it's paid for, if there are income caps, if it's going to be through reconciliation, he wouldn't answer any of these things. But at the end there, he said the gas prices are too high and diesel prices are too high, which is also contradicting Donald Trump. But he said it's because of the Strait of Hormuz, which is different than what Trump has been saying the past couple of days, which is, it's because of Ukraine. You know, on social media, he said Ukraine has agreed not to hit Russian energy targets. Russia has agreed to do likewise. The world's diesel price rise is mostly caused by the Russia Ukraine war, not Iran. So which one is it? Mike Johnson. Is it Russia Ukraine, which it most certainly is not, by the way, or is it the Iran War, the Donald Trump started, which it most certainly is, by the way? So which one is it? They can't figure out. They're not on the same page. Mike Johnson is contradicting Donald Trump, but it's not just him. I mean, it's the Supreme Court. It's his own voters. Members of Congress, Donald Trump has had a really bad day today. And I love when the Democrats are the source of his bad day, but today it was the Republicans. So look, I will leave the video there. Thank you so much for watching. Please make sure to subscribe down below, drop a like on the video, comment. Let me know what you think about this stuff and everything we talked about. Have an amazing rest of your day, and we will talk soon.
