Donald Trump has posted a series of increasingly bizarre, misleading, and inappropriate content on social media over the past few days, raising serious concerns about his mental stability and judgment. Central to this is an AI-generated video where he is shown being attacked and then befriending a tiger, mocking a real incident in which a man died in a tiger enclosure. This is compounded by other posts including fabricated quotes from Denzel Washington, false claims about Iran’s military, and false accusations against the New York Times over photo editing. Trump also contradicts himself on election messaging, claiming he is not on the ballot while previously urging people to vote. Additionally, he has made inflammatory statements about foreign policy, falsely claiming that China and Russia are not helping Iran, despite widespread reporting to the contrary. His attacks on Letitia James, the attorney general leading a criminal investigation, reveal a pattern of personal grievances and lack of factual rigor. These actions—spanning misinformation, deliberate falsehoods, and inappropriate mockery—demonstrate a significant decline in accountability, professional conduct, and public trust. As the president of the United States, such content undermines the nation’s credibility and reflects a troubling disconnection from facts, responsibility, and ethical standards.
Look, I just don't know what to say anymore.
What you're looking at on your screen right now
is a real post that Donald Trump made late last night,
and it's an AI video of him with a tiger,
and the tiger's like getting in his face,
and then eventually he gets up and tackles the tiger,
and then they're friends.
It is one of the weirdest things
I've ever seen Donald Trump post,
but this is what the president of the United States
was doing last night in the middle of the night.
It's incredibly weird,
and it actually goes deeper than this,
which we're gonna talk about in just a moment,
but I wanna show you a bunch of the posts
that Trump has been making over the past day or so
because they have gotten increasingly weird
and demented and strange as time has gone on.
So 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 me just start the video by saying
Donald Trump posted three different times yesterday
about big cats like tigers and lions mauling human beings.
One is too many.
How are you doing three in a day
as president of the United States?
How are you doing
three in a day as a human being?
What person is posting that online?
He started this with saying,
don't ever mess with nature.
This is a post he made at 3.54 PM yesterday,
and I can't play the video for you
because it is quite difficult to watch,
but the video is of this young man
who jumped into a tiger enclosure in England recently.
The tiger attacked him.
He unfortunately passed away due to his injuries.
Thankfully, they're not euthanizing the tiger or anything,
which I think is the right move.
I don't think the tiger should be punished,
but that's the thing.
That's the story.
And whatever way you look at it,
it is tragic, right?
And his family is mourning him.
Obviously, this is a young man who lost his life
in a way that obviously is not the smartest way,
but he did lose his life.
He did have a family.
And Donald Trump is mocking it
by posting never mess with nature
and posting the full video of this man
getting attacked by a tiger on social media.
Who does that?
What president would do that?
It is appalling that he's uploading this man's
last moments to social media
and trying to make a joke out of it.
And he didn't stop there
because the post that we were looking at
that we just talked about a moment ago,
the AI video is his version of that video.
He replaced himself with the man in the video,
made it AI.
The tiger is AI.
He replaced himself.
He put himself in the video.
And this is what he uploaded online.
I can't play the background music
because the song is in the jungle,
the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps night,
which by the way, not a lion.
I don't know if he knew that,
but this is the video.
He uploaded this.
The tiger's like getting in his face.
It's like putting his paw on.
And then Trump gets up,
chases after the tiger,
tackles the tiger to the ground
in multiple different ways.
And then they're like friends.
And then they're hugging.
Donald Trump is making fun of this man's death
by posting an AI video
where he is replacing himself with him.
It is a weird thing to do,
but it's what Donald Trump did last night.
What do you even say about it anymore?
What do you say about this?
Who can justify this?
Who can pretend like this is okay in any aspect?
And I,
I just can't even believe I'm saying he didn't stop there.
And I can't really show you this video either,
but he posted another AI video
of a bunch of different tigers breaking out in lions
and breaking out of their enclosures
and mauling human beings.
So like for this one, for example,
the tiger, the lion jumps out of the enclosure.
I really am trying not to show you that.
The lion jumps out of the enclosure
and starts eating the man.
And there's like multiple different versions in this video
where here's another one where these,
these lions broke through the door
and started mauling another person.
Like what is going on?
Who can possibly claim that this man is sane?
Who can possibly claim that he's in his right mind?
He is obviously mentally declining severely.
And it is so embarrassing that for us,
the president of the United States
is doing this stuff on social media.
We have our enemies, our allies around the world
looking to the United States for guidance.
Maybe sometimes, maybe not anymore with Donald Trump,
but usually that's the case.
And they see this like, it's so embarrassing.
It's so embarrassing, but I have to move on.
I have to move on from those posts.
I could talk about them forever, but there's more.
If you can even, there's more weird things
that Donald Trump posted.
Here's another one.
He uploaded this, this quote from Denzel Washington,
famous actor, famous person that says,
boom, Denzel Washington,
I've worked with a lot of people in my life
and I've never met anyone braver, smarter,
or cares about more, excuse me,
who cares more about America than Donald Trump.
He's a great friend and an even better president.
I'm proud to be a steadfast supporter
and I'll never apologize for it.
Do you agree with Denzel?
Yes or no.
This is a quote apparently that Denzel Washington said,
Donald Trump,
Donald Trump is ample.
Ryan Reynolds here from Mint Mobile.
I don't know if you knew this,
but anyone can get the same premium wireless
for $15 a month plan that I've been enjoying.

So do like I did and have one of your assistants assistants

equivalent to $15 per month required.

then full price plan options available.

buying it on his social media feed.
And it's incredibly concerning that the president
of the United States doesn't take like five seconds
to fact check something before he uploads it
to his tens of millions of followers
because this quote is fake.
It's fake.
This has been fact checked.
This is a new article that was published
after Donald Trump uploaded this image.
It's fake.
Denzel Washington never said that
and he uploaded it anyway.
He's like trying to do guilt by association.
I guess he's trying to make it seem like,
oh, well, I'm not so bad
because these celebrities like me,
Denzel Washington, famous guy.
He likes me.
How could you hate me?
He's like trying to drag people in completely unfairly.
I think there should be a defamation suit here
or like, you know,
there has to be some kind of punishment
for Donald Trump posting this.
It seems illegal to me.
Then Trump continues with his AI posting.
It says 159 Iranian ships.
Other presidents, the Iranian fleet was alive and well
under Donald Trump.
It's on the bottom of the ocean.
We know that's not true
because Americans are still getting attacked
in the Middle East, in Iran,
in the surrounding countries.
And, you know, he continues to post stuff like this.
To pretend as if he has eliminated Iran
and their military, you know,
it's just, it's just categorically false.
Then Donald Trump, October 12th, 1045 in the morning,
he posts this image where he says that under him,
it's the golden age under Democrats like Chuck Schumer,
Hakeem Jeffries, Letitia James, Nancy Pelosi.
Apparently that's the dark age.
And I just, a quick question for Trump supporters.
So when we're covering up the Epstein files,
when Donald Trump is covering up the Epstein files,
preventing any justice for the victims,
allowing these really bad men to get away with bad things,
is that,
is that the golden age?
When, you know, interest rates are incredibly high,
when inflation is still stubborn,
when we have trade wars with our allies,
when the economy just sucks generally
and diesel is at a record high.
Is that, is that the golden age?
Because that doesn't feel like a golden age to me.
Kind of feels like the dark age.
Kind of feels like a depression or a recession
or some economic downturn.
But, you know, Donald Trump is gaslighting
and lying to his fans.
Then this was before his rally in Ohio.
He said, big crowd at Ohio rally,
tremendous response to radical left socialists,
communists and lunatics trying to take over our country.
See you later, Ohio.
We covered the Ohio rally on the show yesterday,
but he says big crowd.
The photos are not showing that.
This is from a journalist with the Washington Post
who was there at the rally on the ground.
And I just can't possibly imagine that this is a big crowd.
You know, if you have all of these empty seats,
and this is while Donald Trump was on the stage.
He took this photo while Trump was on the stage.
You have all these empty seats.
You have people over here.
Look at her.
She's yawning.
She's yawning.
The woman in the room.
She's in the blue.
She's yawning.
And this is on the other side of the arena.
More empty seats.
When you have this many empty seats,
you cannot possibly claim that you have a big crowd.
But Donald Trump, once again,
is trying to artificially inflate his popularity.
Say, you know, take a look at this selective photo
to make it look like I have a big crowd at this rally.
And in reality, it's like, you know, five people or something.
Or they edited people in the back or something.
I don't know.
You know, here's another one that Donald Trump uploaded.
Look what the New York Times did to my beautiful Doral,
that being one of his clubs.
They doctored the photo.
They artificially put mold,
all over the building when referring to it in a story
signed Donald J. Trump.
And this is the image that he included
where it says artificial news.
So I, so wait, so wait.
So I guess we have a new label for news that he doesn't like.
It's fake news and now it's artificial news.
He also changed, you know, AI to SI.
So I guess he just thinks the word artificial is bad all around.
And so he's saying the New York Times is artificial news.
And this is what Doral actually looks like.
But the New York Times, Doral, Doral, it's pronounced some way.
I don't really care what his club is.
The New York Times actually responded to Donald Trump's post
claiming that they doctored these photos
to make his club look bad.
And they said,
Donald Trump has repeatedly made the false claim
that the Times published a doctored image
of his private golf club, Trump National in Miami.
The image used in our report is not doctored.
Of course it's not.
It was taken by a Times photographer in 2020
and accompanies our report about Donald Trump
walking back his decision in 2019
to host the G7 summit at that club.
So no, the photo is very real.
But once again, Donald Trump,
the president of the United States,
who probably should be focused on more important things,
is taking time out of his day
to attack the New York Times and the media
for something that they actually didn't do,
which is, you know,
not exactly a news story with Donald Trump.
Here's another one he posted,
which really is just so anti-American.
He's lying to cover for Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping,
for Russia and China.
On October 12th, 2026, 10.45 PM, he posted this.
I see so many comments from the radical left moron,
and lunatics that China and Russia are helping
the wonderful Islamic Republic of Iran.
If they are, it's at a very low level,
but I don't believe that they are.
They have too much to lose,
and we would know about it and know about it very fast.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Anytime I read a statement like this from Donald Trump,
I know he's been president before.
He was president for four years,
and now he's been president for almost two years,
but I can't help but say to myself,
I can't believe that this guy's president.
I cannot believe that this guy is president.
You know why?
Because not only is this like a really
stupid post, like why are you running cover for Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping? But we also know
that both China and Russia are helping Iran. This has been extensively reported on by the Washington
Post, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal. They've been assisting Iran in a variety of ways,
from buying their oil or selling rocket parts to them or supplying them with satellite imagery to
show where our troops are, where our bases are, where our people are, so that Iran could kill us.
And apparently, according to Donald Trump, that's either not helping Iran or helping them at a very
low level. The president of the United States has consistently shown the American people that he is
more interested in backing these countries, which have adversarial intentions against the United
States, than he is in backing the United States. What happened to America First? You know, America
First cannot possibly be backing the word of China and Russia when they say that we're not helping
Iran. Meanwhile, our own intelligence communities have said they are,
absolutely doing that, and they're doing it in very sinister ways. It's not America First. Can't
possibly be America First, right? Here's another one, a complete contradiction from Donald Trump
that I thought was just so fascinating. This was October 13th, 2026 at 12.04 p.m. He said,
the Houthis are behaving very badly. I thought they learned their lesson a year ago when we
bombed the hell out of them, and at their request, we stopped. They've been silent for a long time,
but now they've emerged again, probably at the behest of Iran, which is a failing nation,
with no Navy, no Air Force, the world's worst economy, 301% inflation, and a very
nasty way, hitting Saudi Arabia and purposely trying to drive up oil prices, probably prior
to the U.S. elections. Not nice. Somebody should explain to them, the Houthis, that I am not running
in the elections. I've already won in a massive landslide, but I'll be there after the elections,
and I will never forget. So Donald Trump, in this statement, not only is he conducting foreign
policy via social media again, which is just like, can't believe we're doing that, but perhaps
more interestingly, he is contradicting himself. He says,
That's been his entire argument to his base recently as to why they should get out and vote
in the midterms. He's been saying, I'm on the ballot, you have to get out and vote, but now
he's saying, I'm not on the ballot. So which one is it? And let me give you an example. This is a
post that Donald Trump made August 25th, 2026. So this year, not that long ago, and it says,
according to Donald Trump, his own words, posting this article,
Trump tells his supporters to pretend that he's on the ballot in November and vote in the midterms.
Can't make up his mind. Their messaging, that being the Republican Party's messaging,
is all over the place. They cannot decide. They cannot figure themselves out. And that's led to
stuff like this, just complete contradictions. The final two posts I want to show you is Donald
Trump, once again, chiming into the Cornell 7 rape investigation. And he's doing this to attack
Letitia James, the attorney general, who's now been assigned to the criminal investigation she's
leading it. He said,
Any decision will be made by her will be appealed. The stench of Letitia James will greatly add to the
anguish that everybody feels in viewing how this case is being handled. The governor should take
James off this case immediately and replace her with someone who is not a third rate crooked
politician. Donald Trump has already said that he feels bad for the men in this case for some strange
reason. What a weird position to take. He said that they're not going to get a fair shake because of
Letitia James. He's just ranting and raving on social media because she has held him accountable
before. And he's still very sorry about that. He's still very sorry about that. He's still very
upset about that. And that's why you're seeing rants like this. Just total delusions, incoherence,
insanity, whatever word you want to use. It probably applies to Donald Trump.
And speaking of insanity and incoherence and delusions, the last post I want to show you
that Donald Trump has made, there's many, many more, but I don't want to take too much of your
time. Yesterday, October 13th, 6.51 p.m. He's reposted this four or five times now. We've
actually talked about this image on the show multiple times. It says, Hello, Greenland. He's
over the mountains in Greenland and looking at all of these different houses, this neighborhood,
it seems like. And he's trying to intimidate them as he has done so often before, which I just think
is gross. And I think we have to call it out at every opportunity that we get. So look,
I will leave the video there. I really just saw this tiger video and realized what he was
referencing and figured I had to talk about it with you folks. And then I just kept scrolling
on his page and I'm like, what is going on? What is he doing? And so we talked about it here today.
