Chapter 1: How is Trump's approval rating affecting his presidency?

00:00 - 00:29 Ben Meiselas

Well, that didn't take long, folks. Donald Trump's approval continues to plummet, according to Atlas Intel, which was the most correct in the 2024 election in terms of pollsters. They find that 52.4% of Americans now disapprove of Donald Trump's presidency. And when you look at the people who did not vote in the 2024 election, who could have swung the scales, I don't know, say to democracy.

0

00:29 - 00:41 Ben Meiselas

Amongst the people who didn't vote in 2024, 83% of people who didn't vote, and I guess who would vote again, say they disapprove of the way Donald Trump is doing. handling things.

0

00:42 - 01:14 Ben Meiselas

Also, when you take a look at the approval ratings of Zelensky versus Putin, as Donald Trump continues to suck up to Putin and just say a bunch of false and demeaning things about Ukraine, 14% of Americans view Zelensky positively. And Putin has a net negative 80% approval. I guess 80% people disapprove of Putin. It means 20% of Americans in MAGA like Vladimir Putin, which is very bizarre.

0

01:14 - 01:37 Ben Meiselas

The next question, do you approve Trump excluding Ukraine from negotiations between Russia and Donald Trump? Trump had those bilateral discussions yesterday that were a complete and utter failure. More on that in a moment. 66% of Americans disapprove of Donald Trump just speaking directly to Putin without Zelensky or Europe.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

And then you take a look at the NBC poll from the day before yesterday, Trump job approval amongst independents, 67% disapprove. I mean, look,

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

as donald trump and his regime send the united states of america into a recession or perhaps even into a depression you have donald trump he wakes up in the morning and he just does crap like this and it's so odd and dangerous and pathological it just stop this nonsense and behave normal But look, folks, we know he's incapable of that.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

Here's the photo that he posted when he posed in front of the empty auditorium at the Kennedy Center with his hands outstretched like he's Mussolini. And he was kind of copying those photos from authoritarians in the past who stand on the balcony. There's literally nobody in that auditorium. And Donald, if you were to show up there People would boo the hell out of you.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

I dare you to show up to a Kennedy Center event, by the way. I doubt there'll even be many more Kennedy Center events since. I think attendance is down 50% since Donald Trump fired everybody on the Kennedy Center board and appointed himself as chairman. Nobody wants to perform there. The Hamilton play canceled and other people are canceling as well. I mean, you wake up in Trump regime America.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

And by the way, it's not a government by the people for the people. It's by the bullies for the billionaires. And you wake up. to headlines like this, whereas with former President Biden, the headlines were like, economy envy of the world, new record highs in the stock market. Now you get headlines like this from the New York Times. Trump says a recession might be worth the cost

Chapter 2: What are the public opinions on Trump's foreign policies with Russia?

13:29 - 13:50 Donald Trump

Look, I deal with every country, indirectly or directly. One of the nastiest countries to deal with is Canada. The people that, now this was Trudeau, the people that, good old Justin, I call him Governor Trudeau, he was, his people were nasty and they weren't telling the truth. They never told the truth. You know that.

0

13:51 - 14:14 Ben Meiselas

So yes, praising China, praising Putin, but he's very bad and attacking Canada. I mean, it's so utterly pathetic. Shout out, by the way, to Canadian Prime Minister, their new Prime Minister, Mark Carney, who is, I think, pitch perfect right now in standing up to the Trump regime. As I've said, Mark Carney, the banker, Donald Trump, the bankrupter.

0

14:15 - 14:39 Ben Meiselas

Mark Carney, the banker, Donald Trump, the bankruptcy guy over and over again. You need a real banker to deal with Donald Trump, and Carney's been handling him quite well. But, you know, like there's a pathology to these sicko authoritarians. Like look at Putin when he would like give himself the awards at the hockey, right? You know, he gives himself the hockey awards.

14:39 - 15:07 Ben Meiselas

Donald Trump gave himself over this weekend while America's Midwest faced deadly storms where like 40 people or more died. Trump awarded himself the golf tournament championship at his own golf club. Very Putin-esque. The way Putin has his sycophants go on state regime media. That's what Trump does. He has Witkoff, one of his special envoy to Russia, goes, oh, I would commend President Putin.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

I'm commending Putin on everything, the way he talked to Trump. Oh, and Donald Trump, I can't overstate how compelling he was. Trump was so compelling.

00:00 - 00:00

Here, play this clip. So I think there have been some breakthroughs. I would commend President Putin for all he did today on that call to move his country close to a final peace deal. And I would say, and I would give all the credit to President Trump, his election, peace through strength.

00:00 - 00:00

the perception that there are no alternatives, that a good peace, a lasting peace, a durable peace is important for both sides. And the president was, you know, it's I can't I can't understate or I can't pardon me. I can't overstate how compelling he was on this call. He was he was he's a natural born leader, Sean. And he demonstrated that today.

00:00 - 00:00

I've seen him in action. I know him pretty well, Steve, like you have known him 30 years and there's no other human being like him. I will say that. Yeah, it's really pathetic stuff.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

And by the way, the Trump regime keeps putting out like just fake stuff like this too. Egg prices drop again. I think the USDA is putting out phony wholesale numbers, not retail numbers, wholesale numbers. And they're comparing wholesale to retail and they're acting like egg prices have dropped and eggs are good now. We're all good now because the U.S.
