Alright folks, this is crazy. What you're looking at on your screen right now is a real photo of Donald Trump lashing out at a journalist last night because she simply asked him a question about his stupid policy. It's not edited, it's not AI. This actually happened during his impromptu press conference on the tarmac in Dallas after the Republican midterm convention before he left back for Washington, DC. He was completely unhinged throughout this entire thing. So I'm going to show you some clips. I'm going to show you the video of him lashing out at this journalist. But before we get there, I want to start with some clips where he was speaking about Iran. And this one he was specifically asked about oil prices. The question was oil prices have shot back up. He said, no, no, no, no, prices are going to go down rapidly. You're going to see it. Just trust me. A journalist said, well, how can you be so sure? He said, well, I'm pretty sure. Like what? I mean, he's been promising that gas prices, oil prices are going to go back down for months. And so when he says, I'm pretty sure and that's all we got. That's not really instilling confidence in the American people. Just watch this.
It's crazy. I'm going to run all the prices of stock back off over the last 20-price. The prices will go up very rapidly as soon as we win the military conflict or war. You can go on or whatever you want. The prices will go back to where they were. It's always, look, there's no cost cutter like me. But Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. And that ends, I think it'll end very shortly after the election. It could end before the election. But I think it'll end very shortly after the election. The prices will go down to less than $2 a barrel. $2 a gallon for oil. How can you be sure? But gasoline, I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty good at it. I've been pretty. If you look at where it was before I started, I had to start. And if I had to do it again, I'd do it exactly the same. Wow. I think that answer actually, because he admitted something there, which is interesting. It completely contradicts what he said previously. He said, when we win the war against Iran, you guys catch that. When we win the war against Iran.
As soon as we win the military conflict or war, you can call it whatever we want. Previously, Donald Trump has said that Iran has been decimated. We've already won the war. It's already over. And now he's saying, well, when we win the war. So contradicting himself there once again, but the same old promises. Oh, it's going to be down to $2 a gallon again. Don't you worry about it. I'm the real cost cutter. Did you know that diesel just hit $6 a gallon for the first time in American history? The cost cutter over here. I mean, are we serious? The cost cutter? He's setting records for how expensive gas and oil is. Doesn't sound like cost cutting to me. But the fact that he's just like, yeah, I'm pretty sure it's going to happen. Yikes. I think the American people should get used to paying this for gas as long as the Republicans are in power. We can change it. We can reverse course in November. And especially come 2028. But for the time being, Donald Trump doesn't have any plans to help the American people. Then Donald Trump was asked directly about Iran. He was speaking about it. And he said there's no chance that the war goes on his entire term. Well, this is possible with the involved war will last the rest of your term.
Let me know. That goes to the report in the journal about the gesture of the journal. Well, see, journal. One of the most inaccurate papers I've ever read. It's only going on its past laurels. Now there's not even a chance. Do you have any hint? No chance of the war lasting his entire term. And quite frankly, I don't believe that. This just kind of seems like to me that it's another forever war. Right? I mean, Donald Trump said that this was a six week incursion. That's the work he used, by the way, incursion. Okay? So he said it was a six week incursion. And we're going to be done after that. It's going to be nice quick and easy. We're now over six months into this war. And Donald Trump is repeating the same talking points now as he was then. That it's almost over. He just got to give me more time. I had to do it. Iran can't have a nuclear weapon. Things like that. He's repeating the same lines. So, you know, the chances of this war lasting his entire term continue to go up by the day in my personal opinion. You can let me know in the comments if you disagree. I'm always open to a difference of opinion.
But as time goes on, I really just don't see any reason to believe that it's going to end anytime soon. You know what I mean? Then Donald Trump, we get to the moment where he was snapping at this reporter. This reporter was asking a question about this $5,000 check promise that he's making to the American people. He's saying the economy is doing so well. We've taken in so much revenue from tariffs that I'm going to send $5,000 to every single American. It's total BS. He's not going to do that. He's promised checks before. They've never come. And there's a variety of reasons as to why this won't happen. But you know, he was asked, you know, on the checks, we were $40 trillion in debt. If your economic policies are working, why do you need an incentive for people to turn out to vote? And he did not like that question, not even a little bit. Watch this. This is because it's all the checks. You have to sell $40,000 in debt. I can have a call. You go, why can't you incentive when people turn out to vote? I think what you're going to do, I didn't do it for turning out to vote. I'm saying, we reward the people having to put up with five years and four years of horrible situation caused by Biden.
I mean, they had to put up with the four years and they carried on, at least the happen in this year, with horrible, just a horrible thing that Biden did to our country. And that's not only just from an economic standpoint. If you look at the border, you look at the crime, and now we've got it under control. But what a period of time. It's almost a reward for the people having to put up with Biden's policies. Yeah. So you also offered checks through it and tear free fun chats. And that's in front of the president. On the run. You're working. You're the worst. Well, I am. I don't think we've seen a president conduct himself in this way in modern American history at least. I mean, just watch this again. It's almost a reward for the people having to put up with Biden's policies. Yeah. So I thank you. You also offered checks through it and tear free fun chats. And that's in front of the president. Wow. And her follow up question was, hey, you've offered, you know, tear free bait checks.
That's what you said. You're going to send thousands of dollars because of the tariffs those checks never came. And he didn't want to answer the question. He got up right in her face and said, not you. I mean, this guy is disgusting. He is just a piece of crap. And look, I want to say worse about him, but I try not to swear on the show. So I'm going to abide by that. But he is a total piece of garbage. And it's all insecurity. That's what it comes down to. Like he doesn't actually have an answer to these questions about how this policy is going to work. Why he promised other checks that have never come and why if the policies are working, why do you need this? Why do you need this policy? It doesn't really make any sense. He doesn't have an answer. So his reaction is, let me just lash out. Let me just try to intimidate this journalist get right up in her face and be incredibly inappropriate, incredibly unprofessional. He's just a very weak and pathetic man. And stuff like this really just proves it. And I don't know how anybody has any difference of opinion when it comes to that fact that we are watching a very pathetic man. And look, even Fox News is kind of asking questions about it.
Laura Ingram, why not just give the money if you have it, just give it right now. Why not just give it right now? Donald Trump says because the Democrats can't do it because with them it's negative growth. Is he aware that they control the Senate and the House right now? What are you talking about? You control the government. You control the government agencies. You control the presidency, the Supreme Court. The Democrats do not control any of that. We are not in power. So the reason he can't do it right now is because it's actually not going to happen. There are no checks. Nobody should be expecting any checks. They're not coming. And he's lying about it to get votes. It's just disgusting. And then Donald Trump was asked further about the checks. How will you pay for the checks? He said out of tremendous growth. Not a great answer. We have to pay for the $5,000 checks. We want to talk to all the other. How to growth. We have tremendous growth. We have growth like no country has ever seen before. We have billions of dollars coming in. And that will end up being not a very big problem at all.
And I think our people deserve it. What about today? And they don't forget their investing. They'll be reinvesting it in our country. Are you worried about the fact that it all impacts the deficit? No, I'm not. I'm worried about it. Not worried about impacting the deficit. The deficit's like $40 trillion right now. Donald Trump makes up. And this is a true stat, over 25% of all of our debt from him, from his administrations, 1 and 2, 25% over. I think it's actually closer to 27%. But one man. So of course, he's not concerned about the deficit. We're Republicans are deficit hawks when they're not in power. When they're in power, they spend like they got it. Just like Donald Trump is doing right now, it's $5,000 checks with money that we do not have. And of course, he's not actually going to do this to be clear about all of it. Donald Trump was also asked if he has concern about AI. And this is a topic that is really in the news recently. He has questions about if it's going to end humanity. And it's in the news because of a man named Jacob Coxon, saying, I resigned from Anthropic today. This was a senior researcher at Anthropic.
And he put out this viral post. I mean, it has 162 million views. It went incredibly viral, saying, I spent the last three years doing pre-training research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. Do not underestimate the power of this technology. These will suit me superhuman systems that could hack anything, revolutionize any field overnight, and acquire real power and resources. We've all witnessed the progress in each of these domains and progress is not slowing. The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill all of us by the end of the decade. This is not a marketing stunt. If anything, many executives and senior researchers will couch their phrasing in the press to sound sensible, but I hear the same people express fear privately. No other human activity poses this level of danger. So this went viral. He's been interviewed by CNN and other media outlets. He did work at Anthropic. There were other Anthropic employees coming out saying, yeah, there's like a decent chance of this happening, which is pretty terrifying. I mean, these are people seeing it with their own eyes. And so Donald Trump naturally was asked, what's going on with the AI?
I mean, do you have any concerns about it ending humanity? Because it's very much so in the news. And this is what he said. This is what's his response to this genuine question that is complex, but he's president. So he should know how to answer it. Not even a chance. Do you have any concerns about AI leading to human extinction? No, I don't have any. I have concerns that if we don't win AI, we're going to be put in a very bad position. We are leading China right now by a pretty good period. I would say a year, which is considered a lot. The president, she's coming over very shortly. He's going to be looking at it. Laughing at state dinner. It's going to be, I think it's going to be great. No, we're leading China. We're leading the world right now and everything. We have the greatest economy in history. And people are going to start to say it. So there's no thought between those eyes behind them. There's nothing going on back there. Really, I mean, his head is just like, his brain is as smooth as a bowling ball. If there is one in there, and if there's not,
it's just like empty space. I mean, that's really what's taking place back there. He has no idea what he's talking about. This is like a genuine report that I think people should be talking about. AI regulation is going to be a huge issue in the midterms. And of course, especially in 2028 as this stuff progresses. But he has no plans, no thought. Just, oh, you know, whatever, that's his thinking. So that was Donald Trump's press conference, a complete disaster where he's lashing out. He's just saying, hey, trust me on oil prices, which is like trusting a scammer to get you an investment return. I mean, it's just a terrible idea. So not a good one. But this picture should go viral because this is who Donald Trump is. He's an angry, pathetic man. I will leave the video there. Thank you so much for watching.
