Chapter 1: What tariffs did Trump impose that are causing market crashes?
Just take a look at this scene. Last night, the futures markets are crashing as Donald Trump imposes 104% tariffs against China. China doesn't back down. Donald Trump is speaking at this black tie event for the National Republican Congressional Committee. Donald Trump looks like he's on the Titanic that is sinking. He's got his little teeny tiny hands on the podium.
And Donald Trump speaks to the MAGA Republican Congress members and he says, everybody, what are we going to call Joe Biden? Should we call him crooked or should we call him sleepy? Here, play this clip.
Do I call him Sleepy Joe or Crooked Joe? Could we take a vote, please? Who wants to call him Crooked Joe? Who wants to call him Sleepy Joe? That's my problem. It's like the same. They both work. They both work beautifully.
As Donald Trump was doing that, we also learned from Usha Vance, who gave her first interview, that her husband's world can be very lonely. The second lady gave her first interview since J.D. Vance assumed the role, and she described it all as very, very lonely. Let him hang out with the couch, Usha. Let him hang out with the couch. Sorry, back to Donald Trump here.
Donald Trump speaking to the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner. He's like, aren't these tariffs great? All these countries have to kiss my ass. Here, play this clip.
And don't let some of these politicians go around saying, you know, because I'm telling you, these countries are calling us up, kissing my ass. They are dying to make a deal. Please, please, sir, make a deal. I'll do anything. I'll do anything, sir. And then I'll see some rebel Republican, you know, some guy that wants to grandstand, say, I think that Congress should take over negotiations.
Let me tell you, you don't negotiate like I negotiate.
As I've said before, Donald Trump's Liberation Day, as he calls it, which is actually Annihilation Day, Liquidation Day or Great Depression Day. It's all about his ego. It's all about the authoritarian playbook to make countries have to go to him. to beg him, please, can I get an exemption? Please don't put the tariffs on me, makes businesses runt him. Please, I need help. I need an exemption.
Can you please help me? I have to do the walk of shame to Washington, D.C. or Mar-a-Lago. And authoritarians like when their people are suffering. Like, do you think Kim Jong-un is upset that people in North Korea suffer? You think Putin cares that he sends Russians into the meat grinder of war in Ukraine? Do you think that he cares that people are suffering economically? No.

Chapter 2: How is Trump addressing the Republican Congressional Committee?
So quite literally, Americans are dying of lead poisoning because we've fired the workers. who are in that field. And we're going to see this in all other aspects of government as well. Oh, and on international foreign policy, many experts internationally say the U.S. is now on course to potentially be at war with Iran coming soon based on the threats that Donald Trump has been making lately.
What is Donald Trump and J.D. Lonely J.D. Van say? Are you happy yet? Are you happy? Say thank you. Say thank you. Say thank you. This is a deranged and demented authoritarian regime led by Donald Trump, a sexual predator, a criminal, a felon, someone found liable for fraud, a bankruptor. The world sees it. The world stands up and resisting.
Tens of millions of people here in the United States are resisting. Trump's approval is plummeting. MAGA people, Republicans, are pissed off at Donald Trump. There's a mini revolt happening, which I think is growing and gaining steam amongst MAGA Republicans in the Senate. We've seen MAGA Republican Rand Paul speaking out against Donald Trump.
MAGA Republicans in the House know the disaster Donald Trump is causing, but they're too weak and obsequious to say anything as well. But we see, I think we see a chain shifting and As Donald Trump continues to crash our economy, we'll see what happens with the markets today. But this is a Trump depression or recession or whatever we're heading into. Trump chaos.
This is one of the first, if not one of the first ever manufactured recessions or great recessions, like actually done, looks intentionally and maliciously. And I think it's for the reasons that I said earlier in the video. It's right out of the authoritarian playbook. Let me know what you think. Go to store.midustouch.com as well.
