"We Can't Invest In America Because We're Fighting Wars!" -Says Trump

Donald Trump recently held a press conference in which he admitted that the U.S. cannot afford daycare, Medicaid, or Medicare because it is "fighting wars"—a complete reversal of his 2024 campaign promise to end endless wars and invest in American infrastructure and social programs. Jimmy contrasts Trump's betrayal with China and Iran, which manage to provide healthcare, high‑speed rail, and daycare for their citizens while still maintaining powerful militaries. He argues that Trump's anti‑war track record (no new wars in his first term) and his alliance with JD Vance and Tulsi Gabbard gave him credibility with desperate voters, but now his actions prove his campaign was the most fraudulent in modern history. He predicts Republicans will face a midterm "bloodbath" as record numbers resign from Congress, and he warns that the U.S. is being deliberately destroyed while elites profit. Plus segments on Trump's low energy, gaslighting speech about the Iran war, news reports that Russian troops will soon travel to Iran to join forces against the United States and China threatening to stop Israel from turning Lebanon into another Gaza. Also featuring Ben Swann, Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
