And then we have the president who, by the way, Megan, this really needs to be said. Donald Trump has said repeatedly on camera and in interviews, he doesn't think he's going to heaven. Well, I want to ask a question, a serious question. What is in his mind? What is his mental state?
If he doesn't think he's going to heaven and he is a man towards the end, he's in the fourth quarter. He's towards the end of his life. How does that pan out for the rest of us when we have a president of the United States who doesn't think and is convinced he's not going to heaven? What does that mean his decision-making is? He already said to the New York Post today that he doesn't care about the polling. He doesn't care about what the American people think and he may put troops on the ground. He took a, oh, this is going to be a few day war to now it's going to be maybe four weeks or more.
I I want to say what is happening to the man that that I supported, you supported, the man that that denounced what happened in Iraq, the man that said no more foreign wars, no more regime change. Promise it on the campaign. JD Vance promised it. Tulsi Gabbard promised it. All of them promised it. And we're a year in. A year in and we're in another war and we've got American troops being killed. I I I think it's time for America to rip the band-aid off and we need to have a serious conversation about what the is happening to this country and who in the hell is is are these decisions being made for and who is making these decisions.
When even Margie Taylor Green recognizes that Donald Trump is presiding over this country like an autocrat, unbothered by polling, by popular support, then it is becoming abundantly clear that the bottom is falling out in the movement that he once had an ironclad grip on. But while I'd rather have Green saying this than shilling for Trump, I do take issue with one point that she makes here. She says, "What happened to the man that I supported in that he's broken all of his promises?" But here's the thing. Trump has always broken his promises. He has always campaigned one way and governed in another.
In his first term, Trump promised an infrastructure law that never materialized, a health care plan that was cheaper and more comprehensive that never materialized. Middle class tax cut that never materialized. A jobs boom that never materialized. Manufacturing renaissance that never materialized. And then in this term, he did the same thing, promising reduced costs and cheaper groceries, lower rent, justice when it comes to Epstein's victims, accountability for his criminal associates. But he's not delivering on any of those things. The only thing he's actually done in both terms is given a tax cut to himself and his rich pals. I don't know how to make this any clearer. He does not give a about you. He never did. He just says things that people want to hear, but he never delivers.
His entire presidency is a graveyard of broken promises. He didn't end the Russia Ukraine war. Didn't lower prices on day one. Didn't bring down inflation. Didn't release the Epstein files. Didn't usher in a manufacturing renaissance. And guess what? He won't because those are just things he says to get your votes. And now that he got them, he doesn't need you anymore. Now it's about him. Now it's about his legacy. Now it's about his tax cut. Now it's about his headlines. So again, while I'm glad that Margory Taylor Green is finally realizing it. I frankly do not understand what took her so long.
But let's be clear, it's not just Trump who's breaking these promises. Let's not pretend that the rest of the party, the rest of the GOP doesn't have agency and that they too aren't breaking their promises. And that's also a point that Green brings up here. And I want to know where the hell is JD Vance? Where is he? Where is Tulsi Gabbard? Because if they stand by and are silent and they're they're turning back on the same words they said, it's all on video. All of them are on video saying it. Just like I'm on video saying no more foreign wars, no more regime change. I'm on video on campaign stages and at Trump rallies saying the exact same thing. But but where's JD and where's Tulsi?
Here's the thing. These Republicans don't actually stand for anything other than blind feelalty to Trump. During that campaign, JD Vance and Don Jr. and Cash Patel and Dan Bonino all talked about how we need to expose the people in Epstein's sex trafficking ring. Guess what? Now they're the ones hiding it. They all claimed that they wanted to lower prices. Guess what? Now they're the ones pushing policies that raise those prices. They all said no new foreign wars. Guess what? Now they're the ones cheering them on. They stand for nothing other than getting pats on the head by daddy Trump. They cosplay as tough guys and alphas who beat their chest all day. And yet they are so far up Trump's ass they can touch the back of his teeth.
And I want to be clear, that's not just on Trump. These people have agency. They are grown ass adults. They are in positions of power. Most are members of co-equal branches of government. But they're all so collectively chicken that they have contracted every ounce of their power, their autonomy to Trump. They made the conscious decision to do so, which means they own his actions, too. They abdicated their roles and gave him their power, meaning they are now responsible for what he does. If you're wondering why Republicans are losing across the country, it's because half of them cannot govern and the other half outright refuse to govern, which is ironic considering they also are desperate to usurp permanent control of government so that they can continue failing to govern. And that's a point that Marger Green finally brought up here.
And I I I think this whole thing is this is not what we voted for, Megan. It is absolutely America last. It's the same we've seen for decades now. And I don't think the president is being tongue-in-cheek. I know that man very well. And he repeatedly and repeatedly says he's not going to heaven. The same way he repeatedly says that he's going that what do you think? Should I run for president again? You know, I think that that started out as we could take it as a joke, but I don't think he's joking. And I I know you're not willing to go there, but I am. I really want to know what is his mental state and who is he doing this for? because it's not for the American people. He's lying. He's gone back on what he promised. No more foreign wars. No more regime change.
Again, late though you may be. Welcome to the party. Of course, he's not kidding when he says he wants to run for a third term. Donald Trump is fundamentally anti small D Democratic. He does not like or support democracy. He is an aspiring autocrat. That's not me being hysterical. That's me having eyes. It's me having ears. It's me watching him ignore the courts, defy the Constitution, wield the DOJ as his personal cudgel against his enemies, try to undermine every election that he and his party loses, and even the ones that they win. Trump loves to claim that he's a patriot, that is window dressing to compensate for the fact that if the American experiment fails, it will be because of him.
So if Margie Tiller Green is looking to repent, which it suggests that she is, she should use her platform to speak clearly about the dangers posed not just by Trump, but everyone who enables him. And let's be clear, that is virtually everyone in the GOP. She's got more cache on the right than damn near anyone on the left does, including me. So if she's truly as insensed as she claims to be, then she should make it clear that the only way to rectify this situation to save this country is to ensure that no Republican remains in power.

But second, the reality is that we are now in a political environment where this administration can lean on any of the social media platforms to suppress certain voices if they don't like critical coverage.
