@atrupar At least he got to shake his hand.

BAIER: You said this summit is a success. What's the most significant specific win for the US? TRUMP: I think the most important thing is relationship. I have a very good relationship with President Xi. (So, nothing.)

@Acyn Trump already said he doesn't care. There is no incentive to care.

Bret Baier reads statements from Trump’s own voters telling him they can’t handle costs. Trump responds by dismissing their concerns and bragging about the stock market.

@ShayneALong @Acyn Totally believable. He'll be holed up in the bunker under the ballroom country desperately needs.

@Acyn Trump wants to make sure the mob turns up when he refuses to leave the WH. Paying them to riot on his behalf is a novel approach. He claims Dems pay protesters — Trump's plan is to pay insurrectionists.

PabloReports: What do you make of this $1.7 billion slush fund that Trump is proposing for Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, and pardoned fraudsters? Raskin: It’s illegal, unconstitutional, and outrageous. Congress controls the spending of money from the federal government, and we never voted to establish a $1.7 billion fund to pay off insurrectionists and his extremist private militias, and we would never spend money on that. So it needs to be blocked. It’s an absolute corruption and prostitution of the Judgment Fund.

@Gianl1974 One can wager the 'bunker' they let slip out accompanying the ballroom will be where Trump will be holed up.

BREAKING: Dementia Don gets back on the plane to leave China and immediately complains that America doesn’t have any ballrooms in a completely bizarre, obsessive outburst! Something is WRONG with this man… After a historic state visit to a rival superpower, the president of the United States was laser-focused on all he had accomplished and the new path being forged for the relationship between these great nations. Just kidding, he was just thinking about his ballroom. In a Truth Social post, Trump shared a photo of himself and President Xi outside of a large building and declared that: “China has a Ballroom, and so should the U.S.A.! It’s under construction, ahead of schedule, and will be the finest facility of its kind anywhere in the U.S.A. Thank you for all the support I have been given in getting this project going. Scheduled opening will be around September of 2028. The man I am walking with is President Xi, of China, one of the World’s Great Leaders! President DONALD J. TRUMP” “China has a ballroom” is one of the most inadvertently funny phrases ever typed. Yes, there is at least one ballroom in a nation of over a billion people. Unfortunately for us, America doesn’t seem to have a SINGLE BALLROOM, according to Trump, which is why he needs to build us one so bad. Never mind that there’s a ballroom literally down the street from the White House. The beautiful Andrew Mellon Auditorium is less than a mile away from the White House, accommodates more people than the new ballroom will, and is owned by the U.S. government. In fact, one would wager that there are many ballrooms in the United States. But none of that matters to a man locked in the throes of dementia, capable of only focusing on one thing and ignoring everything else. Which would be fine if he were in a nursing home and not the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. 25th. Amendment. NOW!

@Acyn Go back to the a/v tapes. Trump said what he said. His actions have been speaking volumes for quite a while.

Jessica: Trump literally did say, I don't think about the financial situation. I don't think about anybody. Bream: Wait a minute, let’s give some context. Jessica: People don't think he cares about the cost of living. He says they can't have a nuclear weapon and I don't care how it's hitting you at home. I don't care about your gasoline prices. Bream and Gutfeld: That’s not what he said.

@atrupar They already said they do not trust Trump. Trying to look and sound tough got this country in a mess it can't get out of.

Trump: "Every time the make a deal, the next day it's like we didn't have that conversation. And that's taken place about five times. There's something wrong with them. Actually, they're crazy."

@Acyn @MeidasTouch He needs all the friends he can pay.

PabloReports: What do you make of this $1.7 billion slush fund that Trump is proposing from the IRS for January 6th insurrectionists and pardoned fraudsters? Lofgren: First, it’s probably illegal. Secondly, it’s outrageous. And finally, it’s corrupt.

@emeriticus Which explains why he wants to pay the J6 crowd.

Trump genuinely hates Americans. He feels nothing but contempt for his base, for the average person on the street whose life is made worse by his policies. Contrast that with the pretend patriotism of his sycophants at The Blaze, Fox News, Daily Wire, Heritage, etc, who defend someone so fundamentally anti-American while wrapping themselves in a flag that Trump tramples every day.

@OccupyDemocrats The media has been treading very lightly so as not to have Trump have display tantrums like this. Tough questions come with the office.

BREAKING: Trump interrupts his own interview with Hannity to rage about a female reporter in misogynistic outburst! Donald Trump is still obsessively seething over a journalist’s question he didn’t like. During a Fox News interview with Sean Hannity, Trump went completely off-topic to viciously attack CBS anchor Norah O’Donnell, calling her “stupid,” “horrible,” and so average that “you could take anybody off the street and it would be as good as she is.” This latest unhinged rant stems from a 60 Minutes interview where O’Donnell dared to read part of the manifesto from the man accused of trying to assassinate administration officials at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. Trump is still furious weeks later. This is far from an isolated incident. Trump has a clear and ugly pattern of lashing out at female reporters who ask him tough questions. Beyond the frequent “dumb” and “stupid” person, Trump has: -- Called Rachel Scott a “horror show” and “one of the worst reporters” --Said “Quiet piggy” to Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey -- Attacked Kaitlan Collins as “so bad” and “the worst reporter” --Labeled Jessica Tarlov one of the “least attractive and talented people on all of television” The White House’s defense? Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has claimed this is just Trump being “frank and honest” and that it’s somehow more respectful than previous administrations. Speaking of honest, we can be honest too. This isn’t “frankness.” It’s the behavior of a thin-skinned, petty, and deeply insecure and misogynistic man who cannot handle any criticism, especially from women. More especially from black women. Instead of discussing policy or trade negotiations with China, Trump wastes time throwing tantrums at reporters on live television. This is not the conduct of a stable leader. It’s the conduct of a man completely consumed by grievance and ego. We’ve said it many times before, but this kind of pathetic, thin-skinned behavior is beneath the presidency and embarrassing for the country. If you’re tired of watching Trump’s endless, unhinged attacks on journalists -- especially women who dare challenge him -- like and share this post.

@gnwayland @SpeakerJohnson Thanks to Mike Johnson the Congress barely is in session.

So if Congress can’t trade stocks they can’t take care of their families @SpeakerJohnson? Many struggling Americans who can barely take care of their families would be thrilled to live on a $174k salary with no stock trading

@justinamash @atrupar Maybe we sorta won the 'war' in Iran?

A “total military victory” but also “sort of finished militarily” “pretty much” “probably 70–75%” “we didn’t finish every one of the things” and “we’ll go back and finish them off.”

@RonFilipkowski @MeidasTouch How much is THIS costing?

Trump remains laser focused on making life more affordable for Americans.

@atrupar He REALLY meant...he hasn't been given the talking points to the spin yet.

Q: Should President Trump have been more committal when it comes to Taiwan? MIKE JOHNSON: I've been really busy the last couple days, so I haven't seen the exact readout on how that discussion went

@CamRMacKenzie Maybe some serious heat is FINALLY coming.

Absolutely despicable.

@RpsAgainstTrump Playing a game of... "whose got the biggest".

Trump: China has a Ballroom, and so should the U.S.A.!…Scheduled opening will be around September of 2028. The man I am walking with is President Xi, of China, one of the World’s Great Leaders! (Says a lot that Trump looks to dictator Xi and Communist China for inspiration.)

@TiffMoodNukes @Melchizedek1972 Somehow I think the Trump administration has tapped into this by repeating lies to the point people believe them and feel helpless.

@Melchizedek1972 Betrayed by him and all of government is something people must learn to accept but I think some will prefer to live in denial because the truth is too much to bear

What I learned from Trump after his visit to China. His own words. What level of America First 38DD chess is this?? He’s willing to allow 500,000 foreign communist students from China into our country to attend Universities and it would be “insulting” to them {not us} if we didn’t He’s willing to allow China to purchase U.S. farmland essentially selling US territory to China Trump said we attacked Iran without provocation to “help out Israel Bahrain, Qatar”…and other countries including China to which he said “we’re helping you”

@atrupar How did THIS genius become Energy Secretary? Isn't there a problem when the US has such a high need for oil?

Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "The world runs on hydrocarbons. It did when I was born, it does today, it will when I die. We just simply don't have replacements for most all the uses of hydrocarbons. In fact, in the US we're at a record high 74% of US energy comes from oil and natural gas."

@JamieBonkiewicz As the grifter-in-chief says...fake news.

Seriously guys, whatever happened to: • the DOGE checks • tariff checks • the Greenland hospital boat • 10% APR on credit cards • my meds being 1500% cheaper • $2 gas • the Epstein files • reopening the Strait of Hormuz that was already open • cheaper groceries • ending wars in 24 hours • the “privately funded” ballroom Any updates?

@atrupar IF the US is spending money in Iran it IS a congressional matter!

Mike Johnson: "The president has declared Operation Epic Fury to have concluded, and now we're working on the next project, which is getting the Strait of Hormuz open. We don't expect that to be a warfare activity, so to speak. So we've got to allow the administration time to negotiate these things. I don't think Congress needs to get in the way of the administration."

@allenanalysis Now the REAL work begins. Trump already says he's doesn't care about the American people. He's shown it.

🚨Democrats just introduced a bill to permanently provide free meals to every student in America. The same Congress that just cut $1 trillion from Medicaid. The same Congress that advanced $600 million in tax cuts for billionaires. The same Congress where 21 Republicans voted against banning AI sexual conversations with minors. Feed the children or cut their healthcare. These are the choices being made. Democrate actually care about people.
