This comprehensive analysis examines Donald Trump's approval rating at approximately 30%, described as 'in the gutter' and at a historic low. The video explores why people struggle to change their political views: those who view their political support as immutable (like sports fans supporting a losing team), and those who are too busy to investigate political claims. The speaker notes that when people's supported candidates do something wrong, they often dismiss information as 'fake news' because their candidate has undermined trust in media. The video highlights controversial actions: naming the Kennedy Center after himself (described as 'the dumbest, most arrogant, cartoonishly ridiculous thing'), posting himself as Jesus online, and attempting to cover up the Jeffrey Epstein files by calling them a 'hoax.' The speaker argues that the democratic process is designed to filter out liars and dishonest politicians. When politicians are elected and then proven to have lied (such as Trump's false promises about the Epstein files and no more wars), the appropriate response is to express disappointment and reconsider support, rather than simply accepting that 'all politicians lie.' The video emphasizes the importance of critical thinking in politics: supporters should be willing to think critically about their candidate's actions and promises, rather than simply accepting everything without question. The ability to evaluate evidence and change one's mind based on new information is essential for healthy democratic participation. The speaker notes that many people are 'decent people that would not do the things Trump does' yet feel the need to defend him, which the speaker finds frustrating. The video concludes that people should not defend someone who has lied to them and has acted in ways that are 'indefensible.'

American reacts to Brit Interviews US Voters Who Still Support TrumpIndexé :
Thank you for watching me, a humble American, react to Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7z0OoBNLIk Got a video request? Fill out this form! https://forms.gle/NeQp2oN5gzxpxXLx8 Thanks for subscribing for more European reactions!
Hello. Thank you for joining me. How you guys doing? I'm a little nervous to react to this video I'm about to react to, okay? Because there's no doubt it's going to fire me up. The video is meet the US voters still supporting Trump. Of course, Trump's approval rating is in the gutter. It's only 30ome% of people that still support Donald Trump here in the States. And I just want to say before I even start this, normally, frankly, I wouldn't even do this with a with someone that I would consider a normal presidential candidate or, you know, normal president. To me, this is not about left and right. That's why I'm doing it. Donald Trump has crossed the line many, many times to where it's unequivocal at this point.
He's just not a good person. He's a very, very corrupt person, a total megalomaniac. Certain things cannot be defended like putting his own name on the Kennedy Center. You know, a center erected as a memorial to JFK, a beloved US president. The megalomania required.
Baffling. Truly genuinely baffling to me to put your name on the Kennedy senator.
A place for JFK. I I mean, I know I already I already said that, but I really can't get over it. It hurts my brain to think about. If I was president of the United States and someone came to me with that idea, I'd say, "Are you out of your [ __ ] mind?" No, I don't want my name on the Kennedy Center. That is the dumbest, most arrogant, cartoonishly ridiculous thing you could possibly do.
the biggest slap in the face to this country. Well, one of the biggest slaps in the face, and that's just purely symbolic. He's also posted himself as Jesus online. Not defensible. You know, these aren't left and right issues. He's defended Jeffrey Epstein purposely, and this is, you know, not ambiguous. He's tried to cover up or prevent the files of the Jeffrey Epstein files from being released. That is a obvious fact. He called it a hoax. He did not want anybody talking about it anymore. He said this plainly many times. Still does say it. So, he tried to cover up Jeffrey Epstein. That's not left or right.
That's psycho crazy. And my guess is there's two main groups of people who still support him here in the United States. I'd say number one, probably the biggest group is that unfortunately humans, and this really applies to all humans, left, right, up, down, anybody, have a tendency to dig their heels in.
They view whatever, you know, political party or, you know, person they voted for for president, whatever it may be.
Um, they view that as just like immutable, you know, they already voted for Trump. There's no turning back now.
They view it like a sports team, you know, like people might be a huge fan of a sports team that sucks, but you know, they still root for it and they say and they will till their dying day say they support it and they love it and that it's the best team ever. And of course that's fine because it's sports, but people view that in that way um with their political party, which is crazy. I genuinely have never related to that type of idea. Honestly, if at any point if I've ever voted for someone and then they do something to piss me off, I will gladly immediately without hesitation say, "Fuck you. I no longer support you and I wish I hadn't voted for you." But a lot of people have a lot of trouble doing that. I don't I it's kind of confusing why, but absolutely is true.
And then the second group of people, I'd say, um, you know, a lot of people are very busy. You know, maybe you and your wife have a full-time job, you have a couple kids, that's a lot of work. And what little free time you have, you don't spend much of it, you know, looking into whatever stupid thing Trump said. And whatever murmurings you hear, you know, oh, he started a war in Iran.
It's not good. You just say, oh, well, you know, that's just more the fake news. Nah, Trump has undermined everybody, you know, his B Maga's trust in the news, so anything they hear me might not even be true. Probably just not even true. So, all right, I've talked enough. This is going to be very painful for me, guys, but I'm going to do it. Let's go. I don't know if this will be funny or sad. Maybe both.
>> Has he got a plan? Do you think for for >> And this is like a British channel, by the way. I thought that was interesting.
LBC, >> check him out. Link down below. War in Iran.
>> Oh, he's >> Has he got a plan, do you think, for for the war in Iran?
>> Oh, he's definitely got a plan. He doesn't do anything without a plan. So, what >> is that plan, do you think?
>> I have no idea.
And neither, it seems, does anyone else.
Donald Trump's approval ratings are at a historic low.
>> The lowest net approval ratings ever for the president of the United States. That is approval.
>> This is going to be painful.
>> Minus disapproval.
>> He's plunged America into another Middle Eastern war with no end in sight, which is hurting the US economy and pushing up fuel prices and grocery bills.
There's also the ongoing scandal of the Epstein files where the president's name keeps cropping up. But there are still some Trump voters, >> you know, and and to whatever extent his name is in the Epstein files um isn't even in the entire point. You know, it's also obviously he's covering up for all his cronies. You know, that's obvious.
It's blatantly obvious. It's just a fact. I mean, Howard Lutnik, one of his right-hand men is all over the file. You know, there's pictures of him on the island is the biggest scandal in the history of the world. And it's not even just about the horrible crimes they did to girls on that island. Like, the depth to what the whole Epstein thing goes, I think, is incomprehensible. The biggest scandal in the history of the world, in my opinion, most likely, and Donald Trump trying to cover it up. That's a fact. Sorry, I feel like I didn't emphasize that enough.
>> Unwilling to give up on the president.
>> I just have a quick question for the 37% who approve.
What's your deal?
>> I went to America's capital.
>> There's the Justice Department where he I mean, he's he does it in your face.
You know, that's the thing about Donald Trump. He's plastered his own face on the Justice Department. Obviously supposed to be independent.
And look at him. He's plastered his own face on it, which by the way, the Justice Department is supposed to be representing the IRS right now in Donald Trump's case. He sued the IRS and Donald Trump here's the Justice Department supposed to defend the IRS from Donald Trump, but Donald Trump's face is on the Justice Department.
And so they whatever, let's continue to find out.
>> I know this there's so this of course a Christian event, but there's also the Israeli flag. So just tell us what's going on here. What what is this for for British audiences?
>> Mainly showing support, solidarity um >> for Israel.
>> Yeah. And the the Jewish heritage goes along with Christianity a lot. So it all intertwines.
>> I mean, you know what? I'm not Should I even touch that? I was just going to say you'd hate to see this picture of the IDF smashing Jesus's face. I mean, it is difficult to rectify that with what she's saying, but whatever, dude.
>> I'm sure many of the people in this tent think quite deeply about Israel and America's uh war with Iran. What are your thoughts on that and how it's going and the impact in the economy?
>> Um, you know, I'm probably the wrong person to ask about that. I lately I've tried to >> at least she admits it. just turn off the news and um just go about my daily life and um I >> know and I mean that's another human tendency and honestly I respect this woman for admitting it. You know it's like when things aren't going your way it goes back to what I was saying you know people don't view it as something they're allowed to even change their mind about. So if it's not going your way just turn it off. You know that's what people do. Tune it out.
>> Information we get from so many different angles is skewed and biased and distorted. So, it's hard to pick out what's real and and what is >> and you know what actually I mean to be honest she's right about that. That is true. It can be hard >> the the real truth about anything. So, um I'm >> which is what gives Donald Trump, you know, plausible deniability to say to undermine the media in the first place because there's a grain of truth to it.
It is difficult to the media is full of hacks and people who spin stuff on both sides. So, I don't know how you fix this.
>> Not up to date on everything that's going on.
>> One of the things he ran on was no new wars and >> now here we are in a war. So, you know, I definitely disagree with him on that. Yeah, for sure.
>> Do you think >> Good for him.
>> Good for him for, you know, speak thinking for himself. And that's another thing that just pisses me off. Like just cuz you support a candidate doesn't mean you have to agree with them on every single issue. In fact, that's for me at least that's impossible. I've never found anyone who agrees with me on every single issue.
The only people if who find a candidate like that, that just means they found the candidate and then they just agree that they just changed their belief to follow the candidate. You know what I mean? Or the party, you know what I mean?
of his supporters will feel betrayed by that because you know he ran on no more wars in the Middle East and as you say he's launched one.
>> Yeah, I think so for sure. Yeah.
>> I mean the midterm elections are later this year. Would you potentially vote Democrat then? Maybe because of you're not happy with the way Trump is directing things.
>> No, I don't think so. I I mean I'm I'm you know I'm more independent, not really in a box.
>> Do you think the >> Well, if you're independent then I mean Okay, whatever. doesn't sound very independent if he wouldn't even consider voting Democrat. But um I was actually going to just say, you know, to his defense, like, you know, um at least he's willing to disagree with Trump on something. And uh you know, for a lot of people, well, they said they're at a Christian event. Frankly, for a lot of Christians, voting Republican is just like what?
Like the only option in their mind. In their mind, that's the only option. Um, so even if you disagree with Trump on, you know, the war in Iran and stuff, you still feel like, you know, you have to be a Republican, which all of that just makes it even more confusing that he was able to post himself as Jesus, which is extremely blasphemous, and somehow like get away with that for the most part. Like, >> well, that should have pissed a lot more people off. Pissed some people off.
>> Going well.
>> Um, I think as well as could be expected. I don't think it was ever going to end overnight. So, >> does that >> Well, it was definitely supposed to end in four to six weeks and it was supposedly way ahead of schedule after two weeks. So, that implies it would have ended after maybe two or 3 weeks.
Um, and now it's has there's Well, I mean, we're in a ceasefire, so I guess I'm playing devil's advocate. So, like in at least there's that. Hopefully, the ceasefire remains.
>> Change how you think of President Trump?
>> Not at all.
Why would something not change how you think of Donald Trump? You know what I mean? That's what I really It bothers me. Even if this guy said, you know, I still like Trump, but it does change how I think about him a little bit, you know, and I am disappointed that he lied.
It's unequivocal he lied. He said no more wars. He started a war. You got to at least say, "Yeah, that's disappointing. He lied about that."
I just don't get people, man.
>> Does that change how you think of President Trump?
>> Not at all. He He's should have been done 40, 50 years ago.
>> Sorry, ma'am, but if it doesn't change at all, then you're just not thinking.
If it doesn't change how you think about President Trump, then you're just not thinking, right? Because how could it not change?
ago wouldn't had >> sorry >> these issues now >> is he is he >> what what >> he should have been done 40 50 years ago >> okay so he actually would have disagreed with Trump I'd be interested to know that hey if you're being consistent then good for you but you're saying that during the campaign trail when Trump said no more wars you were over there on the sidelines come on no we want war boo have these issues Has he has he got a plan, do you think, for the war run?
>> Oh, he's definitely got a plan. He doesn't do anything without a plan.
>> That goes against a lot a lot a lot of what inside whistleblowers have said, you know, about Donald Trump and his thought process and his actions. You know, appar from from what we know, he does a lot of things without a plan. For instance, his threat to withdraw 5,000 troops from Germany was apparently done on a whim. No, zero plan. That's reporting from inside the White House.
So, >> what is that plan, do you think?
>> I have no idea. It's above my pay grade, but I guarantee you he has a plan.
>> Donald Trump is not above anyone's pay grade. That is an insult to yourself. I I don't I don't appreciate that. You should not be self-deprecating in that way. You know, Donald Trump is not high IQ. He's very midweight.
Probably a flat 100, maybe 98.
>> Behind him.
>> Oh, yeah. Yeah.
>> Maybe 95.
>> Yeah.
I guarantee you he has a plan. See, you're funny behind him.
>> Oh, yeah. Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> War in general tends to be good for you, man.
>> One of those topics that people don't like, even though it's kind of a part of life a little bit, but >> what's a part of life? A war.
>> So, I'm sure he'll lose a little bit of support. But I think also for people who do support him, >> war is a part of life.
>> They know like >> not a part of our life, right? If the war was here in American mainland, I think we'd all feel a little bit different. Huh. Right. then I'm not sure anybody would saying be saying it's oh it's just a part of life. But when it's away in a far away land and you can't see it or hear the bombs, then it's just a part of life for other people.
I mean, they probably have trust in him.
He's a he's a wellestablished businessman. He wouldn't have done it without thinking through all all the options and thinking the best like what would have been best. I'm sorry. I don't even mean to be mean to this girl. I'm not even trying to be and I'm not.
I just wish people would like I don't know just I'm just disappointed in people sometimes.
>> He's got a plan >> overall >> there in Iran.
>> Yeah.
>> Even if the president's tactical choices are up for debate, the war's impact on the US economy is not. Energy prices have spiked. Well, it's an impact on the global economy >> since the beginning of the conflict.
>> Sorry. With >> Sorry guys about all that.
>> The average price of a gallon of gas now rising by 40%.
>> I actually haven't checked oil today.
>> Across the country and grocery bills are expected to be hit too with a global fertilizer shortage making food production more expensive. And this is a president who campaigned on the cost of living and tackling inflation.
>> Oh, that's the whole reason he won. That is the entire reason he won. That's why all incumbents lost in the last few years.
They were all they all reigned under high inflation, you know, and a lot of it wasn't even their fault, you know. It was the pandemic's fault essentially for disrupting supply chains and it caused a huge amount of inflation obviously, but people blamed, you know, their current incumbents to which to an extent, I mean, can be more or less true or not true. Mostly not true. Um but um of course that's how people you know kind of feel you know they say oh high inflation and you were the one running the country so let's try someone else you know fair enough fair enough. Um but it I mean it was it's actually not really fair enough.
It's um that was his whole campaign.
That's what I'm trying to say. It's the whole reason he won >> is a word that I >> that no more wars >> used a lot on the campaign. It's like an oldfashioned word, but it's a beautiful word. Very descriptive word.
>> Has he broken that promise?
>> I just think he's doing a terrific job in terms of our economy. It's a little down now, I think. But I think the steps that he's taking to a little down now, >> right? The economy are the right steps to take.
>> What steps are you talking about?
Tariffs, adding a tax of friction on imported goods, the most anti- capitalist thing you could do.
being pass is at a horrible point in the supply chain to where it causes a massive amount of inflation. The cost goes almost entirely to the consumer and just reduces their choices as consumers.
Terrible for businesses that rely on inputs from other countries, you know, puts them out of business, a lot of them obviously causes inflation. And it's caused inflation to stick at 3%.
When it otherwise it was it was plummeting until the tariffs and now with the war in Iran, a huge oil shock and we have you know inflation rising now right 3.8%. Terrible number and this is the mo this is this along with the unemployment rate are the two most important numbers and it's terrible. So, in what way is this?
Which policies are we talking about that are so good for the economy?
I guess you could argue like some there were tax cuts which could stimulate the economy. Is that the argument? Because the other stuff kind of blows that out of the water in my opinion. Would you vote for him again now given what's happened to the economy and the situation in Iran?
>> And we're literally having to purpose it's now projected that the Federal Reserve is going to raise interest rates which obviously the entire intention of that is to stifle the economy. That's the intention to make people poorer so that they cannot afford goods so that prices have to come down. That's the intention of raising the interest rate and that's what we're gonna have to do because inflation is going up. So, how is this good?
>> Think that >> really >> really >> is >> what she say are the right steps to take.
>> Would you vote for him again now given what's happened to the economy and the situation in Iran?
>> I might have to rethink that.
>> Really?
>> Really?
>> That's awesome. You know, I love I love to hear people just like at least the most gross thing to me is like cultism. And once again, it's whether it's on the left or the right. And there's a ton of it in MAGA. Just cultism, you know. No, I will not even rethink anything. It has not changed my thoughts at all. Nothing will. He started a war. It won't change my thought. I will not think I will never think a negative thought about my Lord and Savior Donald Trump, you know, that just pisses me off.
So awesome. I love to hear when people are just not, you know, that I'm trying not to be super mean. You know, you just have to be willing to think at least think for yourself. Hey, and if you come to the conclusion, you know, I still like Donald Trump. I don't know how you come to that conclusion, but at least at least think about it.
Think about it. Is that something that kind of changes how maybe not just yourself but your family and people who live around you who may have voted for Trump does it change how they think about him because of the impact of that?
>> Um I don't think that particularly does I think the economy is going to go up and down no matter what prices inflation everything. So >> um I don't I don't put a whole lot in that right now.
>> Fair enough.
>> Yeah.
>> Everybody's got to pay a little bit.
>> You have How about you [ __ ] pay, buddy? send your kids to the war and you pay the bill. There we go. Problem solved. I shouldn't have to pay. I didn't vote for it and I don't support it. So, why should I have to pay to pay that price?
>> Oh, sure. It doesn't bother me.
>> I'm sure it [ __ ] doesn't.
>> I think they look for anything negative that they can uh exploit. I don't think it'll make a big difference. So unless it really gets out of hand >> really, you know, unless the prices really skyrocket, but a little bit is not going to hurt anything. I don't think >> you don't think the impact of that war on the economy is going to change people's minds about Trump.
>> I think it will. I think the longer the war goes on, the less popular it will be, >> you know, although >> it's already phenomenally unpopular. I don't even, you know, I appreciate him.
This guy, I don't know.
Let me try to collect my thoughts.
The war is was never popular outside of Israel. You know, unless you're an Israeli, you don't support the no country supports this war. Americans don't even [ __ ] know why we're at war.
There is no popularity of the war. But with that said, he is right. The popularity will go from 1% to 0%.
if this war continues >> goes on, the less popular it will be.
>> You know, although I think he's doing the right thing, uh I I hope it's over soon. I don't think a prolonged war is is good for the economy and it's certainly not good for um >> this also I just I do find it interesting that his implication is that like Donald Trump has control over when this war ends which as we all know now the real metric for if this war is over or not is unfortunately the straight of Hormuse being open or not which is I say that's unfortunate because um that's a nearly impossible goal. We have it. It's not impossible, but god, shutting down the straight of her muse is as easy as firing a gun on the coast at ships. That'll shut it down.
So, think about that. It's so asymmetric.
One dude can just pop out of a cave and fire a gun at some at at the ships and then the insurance companies will say, "Nope, no more insurance for the vessels. Shut it down." And then they can't sail basically. More or less. That's it essentially. Or they can just say, "Hey, we put some mines out." Whether they did or not, nobody knows, but they can just say, "We did." And then that'll shut it down. So, it's very, very easy to keep that straight shut down. Um, so we basically need Iran. Iran kind of holds considering that's now the metric for if the war is over or not.
Unfortunately, that means the cards are very heavily in Iran's hand. You know, like Trump always loves to say, "We have all the cards." He says, "Oh, you know, all their navies at the bottom of the ocean." You know, normally that might be true. If our if our goal was different, if our goal was to defeat their navy, then yeah, we did that.
But that doesn't mean that someone can't pop out of a cave with a drone or fire a rocket, you know, that cost $10,000 at a ship. You know, how do you defeat that?
And that how do you win against that?
And so we will need to come to an agreement with Iran for the for the straight to be opened. We need to come to an agreement. Maybe we will. I don't know. Whatever agreement it is though.
I struggle to even think based on if you read, you know, Iran's, you know, points that they've been sending in for negotiation.
It looks like Iran might come out better than they were before the war. Like they might have some kind of actual jurisdiction over the street of Hermuse, which used to just be International Waterway and now it's not.
Like I don't even know what got me on this tangent. Let's continue.
>> It's good for the economy and it's certainly not good for morale and it's not good for the elections that are coming up in November for the Republican party.
>> Uh personally, it's not changing my mind. Um, >> I'm sure it's not.
Why would anything?
Hey, is him covering up for Jeffrey Epstein, the most elite, prolific ped PDF file in world history, you know, evil um, corrupt ring of elites, you know, doing things on an island, you know, and Trump covered that up unequivocally. Obviously, it's a fact.
Does that change your does that does anybody do people think does that change how anyone might think about anything for just a second?
>> Just a question.
>> I'm not sure um you know really how much it's it's an inconvenience but it's not huge.
>> You think it's a fair a fair price or >> I think it's a fair price. Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. I think we're doing the right thing >> with based on what >> the Iran wall dominating headlines. It's easy to forget another issue which has dogged the president.
>> Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein.
>> The Jeffrey Epstein case.
>> Jeffrey Epste.
>> I I I want to hear them speak on this.
How do you What do you even say against this? How does anybody defend Epstein? I want to hear it. Let's hear it. Let me guess. Oh, you know, I don't know what I think about, you know, I don't know what's true and I don't know what to think about it. And Oh, and and Bill Clinton was in the files, too.
Jeffrey Epstein.
>> Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein.
>> Epstein.
>> Donald Trump.
>> Lock them all up then. I don't care.
Left, right, up, down. Lock them all up if you went to that island. Or at least you should not be You should not be qualified.
You You should be disqualified from holding a public office if you went to that island. Pretty low bar.
continues to deny he had a friendship with the notorious Peter.
>> If you even sent one email, you're disqualified. I don't care if it was a happy birthday.
You're disqualified. I don't care if you didn't do anything wrong. We don't need you. Sorry about it.
Oh, >> that's such old history. Very easy to explain, but I don't want to waste your time by explaining it. But he delayed the release of files which later revealed Epstein's global network of influence and threatened former allies who pushed for more transparency.
How confident are Trump's supporters that he's done nothing wrong? I try to attune a lot of it out because you you get little sound bites and you hear a few words of maybe a broader sentence or speech that was given and um so you really don't know what bias you're getting when you hear that sound bite, >> right? hate. You know, I actually feel bad cuz this lady genuinely I feel the energy from her is that she encapsulates like a good person that's just so ignorant and so kind of she feels kind of, you know, like she's on team B and it was like it was prescribed to her and so, you know, I just try not to look at it, you know, >> because of his connections to Jeffrey Epstein.
>> This guy, I don't know why I hate this guy. I'm just going to be honest.
>> You don't think that risks losing some of his voters, some of his supporters.
>> Now, WHY WOULD IT? I FOR ONE WISH I HAD GOT INVITED.
>> NOPE. It's everybody up there is connected to somebody.
>> That excuses it all.
Everybody's in there connected to a PDF file one way or another.
So, who cares if Donald Trump is >> really?
>> Oh, yeah.
>> That's what you think.
>> That's the only way you going to get there.
>> Connections. They haven't proven it.
>> Connections. You know, connections don't necessarily mean you're connected to a PDF file. Elite PDF files seex ring.
you know, like connections like your your uncle's a senator. Like that's a connection. It doesn't necessarily mean you have to be Jeffrey Epstein's friend.
>> Anything. So, in my opinion, >> because he's right, most people do have some connections, just not to um Jeffrey Epstein.
>> Their connections >> they have >> connections >> haven't proven anything. So, uh, in my opinion, they have until they prove that that, you know, there's some wrong >> prove it.
Sorry, I'm losing my mind over here. I'm losing my mind.
Until you prove it, hey, you know what the convenience is? There's no investigation by the Justice Department.
It'll never be proven because it'll never be investigated by Trump.
How's it going to be proven? What's he going to implicate himself?
>> I've truly I've gone off the deep end, guys. I can't take this.
>> Is this almost over? Please.
>> Uh I think honestly there's probably a lot of people uh >> I'm okay. I'm okay.
>> That are politicians or uh in government work that probably should be running in hiding right about now.
>> But they haven't pro >> you think >> proven that President Trump is a part of anything. So until they do >> No, no. Haven't proven it, right?
>> Just a little bit odd that he um tries to cover it up though, right?
Hm.
>> Do you think he's being transparent enough in terms of releasing all the documents and and engaging with, you know, the relevant authorities about that or would do you >> I don't think any politician is >> just like the other guy said, they've all got they've all got connections, you know. I don't think any politician would release the documents. Therefore, who cares?
>> Transparent enough for me to be honest.
>> Oh, yeah. None are transparent enough.
So therefore, why be transparent at all?
None will meet my standard.
So I don't care if they're 6 feet under the ground and cover up for PDF files. I don't care cuz none of them will meet my standard.
I voted for the man twice. But um politicians tell you what they want you to hear. And I don't think that's that that's that's not the case for that's the case for all of them, not just Democrat or Republicans. Um they tell you what you they want you to hear.
>> I almost see a little bit of a struggle inside this man. You know, he doesn't come off to me as like a total [ __ ] I just think he's struggling with himself.
I wish him the best.
You know, it can be very difficult to to have this mental battle going on within you. You know, just accept it, man.
Just give it up. Stop trying to defend Donald Trump. It's not worth it.
Not worth it. You actually don't gain anything from doing >> case for all of them, not just Democrat or Republicans. um they tell you what you they want you to hear.
>> Okay.
>> I think Trump is no different.
>> And um you know when you're electing a politician, you do your best. It's part of the whole process of democracy is to try to filter out the liars because that's what you just said. They tell you what you want to hear, which means they're lying.
Through the democratic process, you try to filter those people out. And if they are elected and then they are proven to have lied like Trump did by saying he would release the Epstein files and then by saying no more wars. So now he's unequivocally lied.
You then say, "Oh, I've been bamboozled.
I'm pissed." That's what you're supposed to say. Not, "Oh, well, he's just another politician."
which by the way is bizarre to hear because that's the opposite of the entire Trump's genesis story. The whole reason he was elected in the first place is because he was supposedly not just another politician.
>> I think a lot of what happened with Epstein and stuff is kind of those there was a obviously like a lot of things that happened and stuff. So, I feel like being >> go on.
>> I think he's being as transparent as he honestly should be.
>> But I try not to let that stuff >> Yeah.
>> tune it out >> me on a daily basis. I find >> Hey, that makes life easier. I >> The more you like focus on that stuff, just the heavier and heavier >> That's true. It's like me right now. I'm focusing on all this stuff that Donald Trump is doing and it is very heavily like impacting my happiness.
She's right. I should just tune it out.
>> Life feels and I would rather just focus on the things I know to be true and find joy and happiness in that and go.
>> You know what? I actually totally respect that and I would just say if that's the case like you should totally feel a lot of people would totally disagree with me but like you don't have an obligation to be political in my opinion if you want to just focus on playing disc golf or playing or you know whatever it may be you know playing um Elden Ring or being the best welder in the world.
You do not need to be political. So just don't vote.
If you are literally standing there saying, "I tune out all the political stuff cuz I don't like it." That's good.
That's fine. But obviously you should not be voting. And I respect that. If I walked up to someone, hey, who'd you vote for? Oh, I don't really find politics interesting and I don't follow it. So, I just didn't vote. I'd say that is [ __ ] brilliant, dude. Good job. I appreciate you not voting based off of nothing despite not paying attention to anything >> about my life.
>> Well, I could see that rupture in President Trump's base playing out there among his voters. Some of them still clinging to the idea that he had a plan for the war in Iran, for the economy which would make their lives better, their country more secure. Others though felt betrayed by a president who once promised never to get their country involved in foreign forever wars. Is he Wow, man. I just reacted to an 8-minute video for almost 40 minutes, so I'm guessing nobody watched that. And that's probably for the best.
That was like I knew it would be and it was the most infuriating thing I've watched.
And part of the but I also just want to say part of what's so infuriating is I'm not actually angry at the people most of the people.
I'm just furious at like the state of everything that Trump has done it. he's undermined people that people are just so and it's so many people, you know, just like have this tendency to dig their heels in and it's just that and I can see that most of these people are probably decent people that would not do the things Trump does and yet they feel the need to defend it.
I just want to shake them and I It makes me feel very arrogant like, "Oh, I know what's best." No, I do not. I do not know what's best. But I do know that this [ __ ] lied to all of us and you.
That's a fact. And I know he's covering up for Jeff Epstein, which is a fact.
And it's indefensible.
That's not left. That's not right.
That's just indefensible.
So, stop defending him.
You don't have to. He's not you. You know, he is not you and he doesn't give a [ __ ] about you.
Thank you for watching. I'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye.
