Trump's HEALTH is going viral, WHAT'S HAPPENING?
A potential health crisis could be a major challenge for Donald Trump. Observers have noted changes in his speech, energy levels, and cognitive sharpness, raising concerns about his well-being. Given Trump's history of controlling the narrative around his health, his inner circle would likely attempt to downplay or conceal any serious issues.
The Trump voters who Trump will screw the HARDEST
Donald Trump's policies are set to hurt his most loyal supporters, particularly rural working-class voters, through trade wars, rising costs, and lost jobs. His push to repeal the Affordable Care Act without a real replacement could strip millions, especially in red states, of healthcare. Meanwhile, his environmental rollbacks and culture war distractions do nothing to help struggling Americans.
From yesterday’s show:
Trump SHUTS DOWN Medicaid portals, TOTAL CHAOS
The Trump administration froze Medicaid funding, disrupting payments and causing panic among millions of low-income Americans. A judge temporarily blocked the move, but the uncertainty threatens lives and healthcare access. This was a clear political and illegal attack by Trump on essential services, prioritizing his own agenda over vulnerable populations.
From yesterday’s show:
Trump Press Secy COLLAPSES when asked about skyrocketing egg prices
Trump's press strategy in his second term mirrors his first, with increased gaslighting, lies and deflections. When asked about rising egg prices, Press Secretary Karoline Levitt blamed Biden and government actions rather than addressing Trump's role. In reality, bird flu is a major factor in price increases, but Trump ignores it while pursuing policies that may worsen costs.
