Trump SCREAMS After Hit With THIS...

Donald Trump is reacting with fury to declining public approval ratings, insisting that all polls—especially those showing low support in Ireland and on key issues like foreign policy—must be fake. Despite claims of widespread global conspiracy against him, independent polls reveal significant public disapproval, particularly on foreign policy, where he ties for his lowest-ever approval, with 60% of voters disapproving of his handling of conflicts in Ukraine and Iran. Trump’s proposed $5,000 voter incentive program and threats to cut trade with nations unless interest rates drop are dismissed as illogical and self-contradictory, reflecting a broader pattern of policy missteps and economic mismanagement. Critics argue that his administration dismisses real public sentiment by blaming Democrats for poor polling and claiming the data is skewed, while evidence shows a growing disconnect between Trump’s rhetoric and actual public sentiment. The reality is that his policies—such as rising prices, healthcare costs, and economic instability—have led to widespread dissatisfaction. Even within his base, figures like John Ossof and Republican lawmakers challenge his claims, highlighting that economic promises like lower prices have failed. The public’s frustration is real, and it is expected to translate into voting behavior in the upcoming election. Trump’s refusal to acknowledge these issues, combined with increasingly absurd statements and policy reversals, underscores a pattern of incoherence and disconnect from reality, further eroding trust in his leadership.

Well, folks, Donald Trump is melting down again. He is very upset with this one very specific piece of bad news that has hit his administration. And it's something that he talks about often. It's something that he thinks about often. And of course, I'm talking about his poll numbers. He is now screaming a journalist calling his poll numbers fake, not only here in the United States, but around the world as well. So I want to show you a quick press conference that he had. I want to break this down very quickly at Shannon International Airport in Ireland today. We'll talk about all of it and more. But Donald Trump is very, very upset. So let's start with this clip right here where Donald Trump was going back and forth with a journalist. And he says, they do like me. I mean, I have polls that show him very popular. You have a lot of fake polls, but they like me. They being people, I guess. If we get those people to go out, we're going to have a tremendous victory. The problem is if I'm not running, if I'm not on the ballot, they think, oh, I'm not running. And if they like me, and they do like me, I mean, I have polls that show me I'm very popular. Here's the story. If they get out and vote, we win in a landslide. Thank you. Yes. One more question. Even if all of Donald Trump's biggest fans get out and vote for him, they're not going to win in a landslide. It's just not happening. I don't know what fantasy land he's living in. I also don't know what fantasy land he's living in where he says that he has really great polls. There's polls that show people love him, which is really just not the case. Or what about this one, where, I mean, this is so ridiculous. Trump says that his polls showing his approval rating in Ireland at 20% are fake, and there's apparently a global poll stir conspiracy against him. The entire world is conspiring against Donald Trump, and it can't just be that he's hated around the world, but he says that the Irish polls are now fake as well, just like the American ones. Well, so everybody has fake polls against Donald Trump. I guess he thinks that all of these people who were protesting in Ireland with, by the way, those really funny balloons up there showing, how do I describe that in a PG way? Donald Trump, I'm not even going to try. I'm just going to, we all know what that was. But I guess Donald Trump thinks that all of these, and there's another one back there, I can't even, I don't, there's a PG show everybody, we're going to keep it that way. I guess Donald Trump thinks that all of these people are fake, they're what, AI or robots or paid for, they're paying tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people in Ireland to protest against Donald Trump. This guy is just such a loser. The reality is, people around the world just hate him. It's just the truth. It's just the truth, and I guess he can't come to terms with that below. All of these people here are not paid protesters. They're just people with common sense who are like, yeah, this is not what it should be. We shouldn't have a president of the United States who behaves in this way, especially a country like Ireland who has had such a great relationship with the United States throughout history, but now, of course, it's a little bit more rocky. And the bad news for Donald Trump is that it's not even just like his general approval rating is bad. It's not like it's in the low 40s or something. It's number one in the low 30s, but also on the individual issues, he's losing badly as well. Take a look at this. A strocious poll for Trump has president tied for all time low on major issues, but apparently that's fake. Donald Trump is floundering with voters on foreign policy after a damning new poll shows the president tying his lowest ever approval on the key issue for foreign policy broadly. One third of voters surveyed in the Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday a proof of Trump's handling of foreign policy while 60% disapprove. While Trump tied his lowest approval rating on foreign policy, the Quinnipiac poll also showed the president reaching the bottom of his approval for its handling of two conflicts, the wars in Ukraine and Iran. Of course, he said that he was going to end the Ukraine war in one day and he's now blaming Zelinsky for high gas prices. And Iran, he said it would take six weeks, but of course, it has not taken six weeks. But he's down on all these issues just across the board, just a devastating series of polls for Donald Trump and on all these issues. It's also just not foreign policy on the economy, on immigration now, he's bad. That was like his big thing. That's why people voted for him, a lot of people voted for him, which is absurd, of course. That's why people voted for him. And if his polls were so good and he's so loved by the American people, why is he trying to bribe people? I mean, this whole $5,000 check thing is really just a bribe. He's saying, if you vote for my guys, if you vote for the Republican party, then I'm going to send you $5,000, which number one is not possible. But also, it's just a bribe. I mean, it's just straight up bribing. And he had it back and forth with a journalist about it saying, hey, you control Congress right now. So why not do it right now? And he tries to blame the Democrats for him not doing it. You have Congress now, so why don't you do the Trumps now versus the apparatus? Because I don't want to do it now because if the Democrats go to get in, our country will be in trouble. And they won't be able to do it. If we get in, we take it and defend it from us for money. We take it in over $20,000 in terms of the Trumps and if the Democrats, all of that money will be thrown out. If the Democrats get in, they won't be able to pay it. With me, I've always paid money. Now I make a lot of money for this country. Oh my God. So he's saying, you know, we don't, we won't send the checks right now because of the Democrats get in. Our country will be in shambles. And as Aaron Rupar points out, wouldn't that be a reason to do it right now? Like none of, like, oh my God, it's so frustrating. None of this $5,000 check plan makes literally any sense, which is not surprising because once again, it's Donald Trump we're dealing with, who is not the sharpest tool in the shed. It's never has been, never will be. None of it makes sense. Not even when he tries to lie about it, doesn't make sense. And I hope people aren't buying into it. And I really think people aren't like across the internet. I'm seeing kind of everybody, even Republicans, even Republicans in Congress throw water on this and say, hey, sorry, I'm still under the, under the weather if you can't tell from my congestion voice. Am I coughing? But people are across the internet, even Republicans are saying like, this is stupid. This is not going to happen. You think all the Republicans who, you know, won't even vote for a budget that funds crucial programs are suddenly going to turn around and be like, actually, I want to send more money to the American people. No, it's just stupid. And also, if the economy is so good, why is he now threatening to cut off trade with some nations, unless the federal reserve lowers interest rates? Like, does that make any sense to literally anybody? Are you trying to cut off trade with a nation running a trade deficit with the U.S. unless the federal reserve lowers interest rates? Are you asking a follow-up or with that? Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm going to do that with some nations. I have no choice. We don't want to have differences with nations. We want to have surpluses or at least breaking this. But we have other presidents. Other presidents have allowed tremendous differences. And we're not going to have them. No. I will be doing it. So wait, wait, let me just get this straight. Okay. So the interest rates have to be higher right now because the economy sucks. And we don't want extended inflation. Okay. The interest rates have to be higher. So the economy sucks because of you. The interest rates are higher because of you. And that means we make the economy worse by cutting off trade with nations. How does that make any sense? And we're going to punish other nations because you ruined the economy. What? Oh, it's also backwards. And I say this often about the Trump administration and America with Trump in power, everything feels backwards. Like nothing makes sense with this administration. What Trump is saying here is two plus two equals five and we're all like, no, no, it equals four. But Donald Trump is insistent that, no, no, the stupidity actually makes sense. It's genuinely ridiculous. And members of the Trump administration are also running cover for him. So Kevin Hassett has dismissed Trump's bad economic polling saying they are surveying Democrats who hate Trump. That's what, that's what it is. You know, the Republicans who are suffering because their hospitals are closing down because of Medicare cuts. The Republicans who are suffering because of inflation and housing prices still being high and things like that. They're all just, you know, siops, they're all fake people according to the Trump administration. The bottom line is that Biden's economy right before that election was truly horrible. We're heading up towards almost close to above 10 to 12% inflation. Real wages were dropping by about three thousand. And so then you ask yourself, okay, if that's a reasonable estimate of what people think about the economy, how come now that we have this booming economy? They say that it's worse. So the answer is that they're surveying Democrats who hate President Trump. That's all. And so therefore I disregard that number. Okay. So let's talk about it. All right. So we just ignore all bad polling and we disregard it because we don't like it. That's the Trump administration motto. Listen, I actually am okay with them doing that. And the reason I'm okay with them doing that is because if they don't want to change their position on bad policy and continue to have the American people hate them and they just want to claim that hate is fake, that's okay because that means people are going to vote against this. Not all the Republicans will. I mean, you know, you have still have your die hard Trump fans day one kind of thing. But there's some Americans out there who voted for Trump who are now pissed off because they hear people like this guy being like, no, no, everybody that's unhappy is just a hater. That's not really what you want to hear from your government officials and people like John Ossof who are just fantastic or calling it out him saying last week the broken old man through a two day party in Texas will cost more than ever to fill up your truck hitting Trump on how bad the economy is. Now remember, Trump promised to lower prices on day one. But last week the broken old man threw a two-day party in Texas while it cost more than ever to fill up your truck to stock your fridge and to power your home. Under the failed president Donald J. Trump, food, diesel, and health care all just hit their all-time highs. They doubled your insurance premiums and slashed Medicaid to cut taxes for their corporate donors and the ultra-rich. They made you pay more for everything. They lied us into war and spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile. You know, he could be president one day. You know what I mean? Like I would 2028, who knows if he wants to run for president. He might just want to be senator in Georgia because you know, that's a state that if we lost that seed it'd be hard to win back. It's a Republican state and he's just, you know, he's good at it. But he could be president. That's a great message. And so people are calling out Donald Trump for this insanity. He can claim all the polls are fake like he normally does. But people's feelings are not fake. They are real and they will show up at the ballot box this November to make Donald Trump feel their hurt. So look, I will leave the video there.
