Chapter 1: Why are MAGA Republicans getting booed?

11.784 - 36.533 Ben Meiselas

That was in Texas's third congressional district. You don't get much more ruby red than Texas's third. The MAGA Republican Congress member getting booed right there for his and Donald Trump and Elon Musk and all the other MAGA Republicans actions. It's Congress member Keith Self. It's basically like a plus 30 Trump Republican district in Texas's third.

36.913 - 53.456 Ben Meiselas

Let me just show you another angle so you have a full kind of scale of the crowd that assembled at Keith Self's town hall as he was mercilessly booed, but as other MAGA Republicans across the country were mercilessly booed. Here, play this clip.

54.337 - 58.305 Crowd Reaction

Come on! This is the end. Goodbye.

Chapter 2: What happened at the WWE event in Toronto?

69.725 - 157.148 Ben Meiselas

Now, I'll do a whole other video on all of these other MAGA Republican Congress members getting booed at the recent town halls they held. But let's go up north, shall we, to Toronto, where the WWE held an event. And during the singing of the national anthem, guess what you heard? More boos. Here, play this clip. And folks, Canada is pissed. I mean, Donald Trump continues to threaten annexation.

0

157.548 - 180.518 Ben Meiselas

Donald Trump said that on Monday he will reinstate or put in place, who even knows with him, the tariffs that he threatened 30 days ago to try to inflict. financial devastation, like our closest ally, a country that is literally our top trading partner. So of course, the people are going to boo.

Chapter 3: How are Trump's policies affecting international relations?

180.578 - 205.175 Ben Meiselas

And in Canada, they are currently boycotting pretty much all things American, boycotting American tourism. We stand in solidarity with you, Canada. The Midas Touch podcast is the number one podcast in all of Canada. So while that booing is taking place, what is... the United States under the Trump regime, which has joined the access of evil with Russia, North Korea, Belarus, Hungary.

205.575 - 228.794 Ben Meiselas

What are they doing? The White House is posting images like this, this photo of JD Van sitting on his girlfriend, a couch. And the White House account says, Have you said the White House account goes, have you said thank you once? And they're bragging that J.D. Vance was attacking President Zelensky of Ukraine in the Oval Office meeting. And he said, have you ever said thank you?

0

229.274 - 255.508 Ben Meiselas

Say thank you to me right now. And it's like President Zelensky said thank you repeatedly. to the people of the United States of America, even though he shouldn't say thank you to Donald Trump in advance. He said thank you repeatedly. All President Zelensky said that he was not willing to say is that Putin is a good guy because Putin is killing Ukrainians en masse and unlawfully invaded Ukraine.

0

256.209 - 283.441 Ben Meiselas

So while Trump and Republicans are getting booed, what's Donald Trump doing? It's weekend at Bernie's. It's a vacation time for Donald Trump. As the Patriot Takes account goes, Trump is working hard to lower grocery prices by golfing and reposting Marjorie Taylor Greene saying, this is what homeschooling looks like in Georgia's 14th. Gulf of America, America, yeah.

Chapter 4: What controversies surround Trump's administration?

283.962 - 311.845 Ben Meiselas

And it's a map where I guess somebody put America over Gulf of Mexico. Right-wing propaganda right now in America, state regime-run media, they're trying to desperately cover up for Donald Trump because they know the American people are pissed. They thought the American people were stupid. They figured they elected Donald Trump, so maybe American people wouldn't realize that the Trump GOP budget

0

312.697 - 342.744 Ben Meiselas

Gets rid of Medicaid, basically, of what, $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid, close to $400 billion in cuts to education, close to $300 billion in cuts to farmers, over $10 billion in cuts to infrastructure. But the billionaires get $4.5 trillion. trillion, $4.5 trillion in tax cuts. And so here's Fox trying to really try really hard with its propaganda saying, look,

343.519 - 357.567 Ben Meiselas

Trump needs a Nobel Peace Prize. What he did in the Oval Office merits Nobel Peace Prize. They're so pathetic here. Watch this for yourself. Luxembourg doesn't have the weapons to give them.

0

357.787 - 365.812 Unknown Speaker

I think we got to get back to the central point. I think the most important point that Donald Trump made in this whole thing, he said, you are gambling with World War III.

0

365.852 - 365.952 Crowd Reaction

Yep.

366.192 - 382.318 Unknown Speaker

This was about peace. Ultimately, there's a lot of drama. We can break down everybody's feelings. But in the end, I think what's remarkable is that we have a president who's willing to do anything to bring about world peace. Man, if he doesn't get the if he doesn't get the Nobel Peace Prize after this, that thing, it means nothing.

382.438 - 399.42 Ben Meiselas

And he was giving Zelensky. And then you have the right-wing clown, no offense to clown propagandists, because not all clowns are propagandists. These are the clown propagandists, like Benny Johnson going, President Trump at Mar-a-Lago on the phone, working. He's an absolute machine. Fire emoji.

Chapter 5: How is Trump handling economic challenges?

399.901 - 422.049 Ben Meiselas

It's like these right wing influencers who went to the White House on Friday and they were handed like a binder and the binder said Epstein files. And so Trump's trying to cover up not turning over the Epstein files because we know from what's already been released. I mean, Trump's name based on what was released in 2021. I mean, Trump's name is on the flight log. Trump's name is on the call log.

0

422.11 - 440.057 Ben Meiselas

Trump's name. his indepositions. I mean, Trump was close friends with Epstein, said Epstein was a great guy who likes women on the younger side. Anyway, they gave the right-wing influencers, if you want to call them that, who showed up at the White House, a binder that said, transparency, the Epstein files, except it wasn't the Epstein files.

0

440.097 - 460.946 Ben Meiselas

And then the right-wing influencers were like, oh yeah, we got it. I mean, how horrific that you're like dancing around with A call log from 2021, which is not the files. When we're talking about someone who trafficked children, I mean, there's sick people dancing with this with these files. I don't know. Oh, yeah. Another day, another airplane is on fire in the United States of America.

Chapter 6: Why is Trump criticized by international media?

460.986 - 482.284 Ben Meiselas

That happened yesterday. Donald Trump and Lindsey Graham looking miserable. The new FBI deputy director, Dan Bongino, I don't even know why he posted this yesterday, which was March, which was March 1st. He posted this yesterday. Today is March 2nd. And Donald Trump is the president of the United States. Yesterday was literally March 1st when he posted that.

0

482.785 - 510.917 Ben Meiselas

And he may want to look because the last day in February, right before March 1st, that's the way it works, February then March, the Atlanta Federal Reserve predicted negative 1.5% GDP growth. when it was supposed to be under former President Biden, somewhere close to 3%. Take a look at all the papers worldwide condemning Donald Trump. In addition, Trump has lost the Daily Mail.

0

511.317 - 534.307 Ben Meiselas

When you lose the Daily Mail, yeah, you're a global pariah as Anonymous writes. Trump on Friday presided over one of the greatest diplomatic disasters in modern history, a spectacle to horrify the world. But you know, I guess that's the art of the deal. It's four-dimensional chess, everybody. I'll show you this. Federal workers at a Virginia town hall at the end of last week.

534.367 - 536.448 Ben Meiselas

Here is what they want to say. Play this clip.

536.488 - 557.761 Unknown Speaker

The email that came out wanting us to justify our jobs with five things we did last week was on Saturday night. And I was literally working on Saturday night to make up for all the distractions I had had the previous week. which came from the executive branch. And so I'm working, trying to catch up on things, and then I get that email on top of it.

558.082 - 562.045 Unknown Speaker

It's very hard to keep your train of thought when you're getting threatened and harassed like that.

562.065 - 570.371 Unknown Speaker

I support the Defense Department, and the jobs that we do are so stressful, and to have this on top of it, I mean, I know that that's their goal, is to make it miserable.

570.972 - 594.567 Unknown Speaker

And don't forget about my colleagues that are overseas, and they don't even know how they're getting home, and they're just being terminated. I feel like what you're doing is... sending out these text messages, you know, saying, oh, my God, we've got to do X because this is happening. I can't. I'm retired. I can't throw money unless I know what the money is going to be used for.

594.687 - 622.315 Ben Meiselas

Did you hear that? They said, you know, Musk and Trump, their goal is to make us miserable. Right. So whether we're talking about the ruby red Texas third or you go into Virginia, which is purplish, People are pissed and they should be. I mean, take a look at this headline from CNN on Friday. Markets wrap rough month driven by extreme fear. U.S. stock seesawed Friday.
