Transcript:
Fortunately, Donald Trump’s diplomatic trip to China is over. Very little diplomacy. Donald Trump publicly played like a fiddle by the Chinese President Xi. Trump, publicly agreeing with Xi’s description of America as a country in decline.
And then made it even worse on Truth Social after talking about Chinese food and visibly struggling to get up the steps to Air Force One. The most globally embarrassing foreign trip for an American president in history. Certainly in decades, that’s for sure.
Now, meanwhile, here at home, Americans are getting crushed at the grocery store. And we’re going to take a closer look today at the very manly beef—beef as the guidepost of food affordability and Americana. And it doesn’t look good.
We’re also going to look at a three-time Trump voter who does a real mea culpa. This is not a “I apologize if people were offended.” It’s “I screwed up. This has been terrible for so many people. I regret it. I’m sorry.” This is how you apologize. You know, we teach four-year-olds how to apologize, and a lot of adults in MAGA don’t know how to do it.
And finally, one of Donald Trump’s own economic allies accidentally destroys years of anti-immigration rhetoric on live TV.
We’re going to look at all of it today.
