SOFTBALL Trump interview STILL goes wrong, host can't save him!

Karoline Leavitt, Donald Trump's White House press secretary, falsely linked Kilmar Abrego Garcia—a legal resident with no proven gang ties—to MS-13 and used an unrelated murder to justify his deportation. When asked if Trump could deport American citizens to Central America, Leavitt confirmed he was “looking into it,” raising concerns about serious abuse of presidential power.

Trump Press Secy's BRAIN FALLS OUT on live TV!

In an interview with Fox Noticias, Donald Trump stumbled through a nostalgic defense of 19th-century tariffs while overlooking the vastly different realities of that era. He mangled a Spanish translation of “Make America Great Again” and made bizarre, vague comments about farmers needing help “doing their crops.” Despite the softball nature of the interview, Trump appeared confused and spread multiple lies throughout.

From yesterday’s show:

Bernie BRINGS THE HOUSE DOWN at Coachella

At a "Fight Oligarchy" tour stop in Idaho, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez referred to Trump as a rapist and criminal, energizing the large audience. The remarks sparked debate over bold rhetoric versus real policy change. Bernie Sanders also slammed Trump’s attacks on the media as signs of authoritarian weakness. This tour proves that progressive ideas can be well received even in the reddest parts of the country.

From yesterday’s show:

SIR Trump, how are you so healthy? SIR tell us

Donald Trump recently claimed to have perfect health, highlighting his annual physical results, including a supposed 15-pound weight loss and a clean cognitive exam. He joked about his energy, attributing it to his passion for making America great again. The absurdity of his claims is similar to North Korean-style propaganda.
