Transcript:

Donald Trump is back in America and his
mouthpieces are back to lying on his
behalf this is just another
day donald Trump returned from the
Middle East this weekend after
completing a myriad of tasks bragging
about exclusive deals for the Defense
Department hiding his jealousy that he's
not a billionaire autocrat and let's
call it redefining certain words it was
tit for tat and it was getting
deeper and more I mean more missiles
every everyone was stronger stronger to
a point where the next one's going to be
you know what the n-word
um the n-word you know what the n word
is right oh god Brett don't do it even
though most of your viewers on Fox would
be completely okay with it don't do it
brett you know what the N word is right
nuclear
thank you thank you for the
clarification i figured you'd want to
clean that up no it's it's the nword
that's that's a very nasty word you know
that Brett Bear just saw his life flash
before his eyes the only thing ballsier
than trying to redefine the N-word in
the American lexicon is making Brett
Bear do it for you here's a hint as to
why nuclear is not the n-word two white
guys just said it on national TV but
Trump and his reinterpretive dance with
words was just the tone setter this
administration needed as everybody
geared up to say a whole bunch of other
things that weren't true take Trump's
tariffs since Liberation Day when the
president repurposed that poster board
from some middle schooler science
project to clarify how he was going to
save our economy Trump has said that his
tariffs would not raise prices on
American goods unfortunately there was
one teensy little hitch in his plan he
lied this big news from Walmart says it
will start raising prices on its
consumers Mr secretary as early as this
month due to the tariffs now President
Trump out with a very stern warning on
social media saying Walmart quote should
eat the tariffs yep looks like the man
with the world's shittiest diet has not
surprisingly added tariffs to the menu
since the launch of Tariff Palooa Trump
has decrieded any mention of consumers
paying more as fake news but now that
reality is set in rather than admitting
what everyone else knew all along he's
adopted that classic Republican position
government telling corporations what to
do is the president asking American
companies to be less profitable uh I was
on the phone with Doug McMillan the CEO
of Walmart yesterday and Walmart is in
fact the going to the as you describe it
eat some of the tariffs uh that
Wow there is a man who seems confident
in his boss's economic strategy i would
totally tell you the rest of my answer
here which would be perfect and satisfy
all of your questions but maybe press
secretary Caroline Levit wants to give
it a shot does he acknowledge that if
companies don't absorb the full cost
Americans will have to pay well first of
all the CEO of Walmart made those
comments about the tariffs on an ear
earnings call where CEOs I believe are
legally obligated to give the most dire
warnings and forecasts to their uh
investors and stakeholders that's right
the law requires that companies be
forthright with their shareholders about
the financial risks they may face and I
believe that we actually received a
snippet of that phone call take a listen
we're so we're so trump's
a liar and we're so huh surprised
that didn't get more coverage but Levid
continued to hammer home the truth as
they see it the reality is as the
president has always maintained a
Chinese producers will be absorbing the
cost of these tariffs yes that's the
reality which is why Donald Trump
angrily tweeted at the president of
China over the weekend about eating the
tariffs and totally definitely not the
CEO of Walmart all of this comes after
Trump warned Walmart to eat the tariffs
as he put it what super weird how Donald
Trump is telling Walmart to eat the
tariffs when by Trump's own logic China
would have already eaten them i mean I
guess technically China could baby bird
the already chewed up tariffs into
Walmart's mouth so that they could both
eat the tariffs surely that's what
Caroline meant look Caroline I hate to
tell you this but your Jedi mind trick
is a bit rusty it's not working on the
tariffs and it's not working on the
president's budget bill either is the
president okay with this bill adding to
the deficit this bill does not add to
the deficit in fact uh according to the
Council of Economic Adviserss uh this
bill will save
$1.6 trillion well look who am I to
discount the legitimacy of the almighty
Council of Economic Adviserss after all
it sounds like a very legitimate council
that I'm sure adheres to only the
strictest rules defining economic
outcomes regardless of political party
the bill is big the bill is beautiful
and it's going to be great for America
it will pass president Trump is the best
negotiator in history he's negotiated
hundreds of deals over the course of a
decadesl long career in every field from
housing to to commercial real estate to
international trade deals and the
president will get this bill over the
line uh wow not sure I'd file that under
economic advice or Stockholm syndrome
that's the chair of Trump's economic
advisory council Steven Moran and I know
what you're thinking are bald Stevens
taking up collective residence in
Trump's colon yes but here's bald Steven
number two touting how big and beautiful
this bill is even though the estimation
from the nonpartisan bipartisan policy
center said the tax cuts that Trump
would love to renew for America's
wealthiest would cost $7.7 trillion over
the next decade while the spending cuts
proposed only offset those by 3.9
trillion over the same period so
regardless of how Trump's team wants to
spin these deficit numbers like a bunch
of college kids at a fish concert they
just keep getting higher and the dire
financial forecast got so real in the
past couple of days that the regulatory
agency Moody's downgraded America's
credit rating from AAA to double A1 to
which most Americans said "Holy
we have no idea what that means." It's
sort of like going from an A+ to an A I
think with the warning that things could
get worse down the road if Congress
doesn't take this seriously unless
Congress takes this seriously oh boy I
think that we're in trouble when this is
the current threat from the speaker of
the house i'm also told that the message
that Johnson is going to push on his
members this week is that it will be a
huge embarrassment if Trump's agenda is
stalled beyond their self-imposed
deadline of Memorial Day
shame i haven't heard that word in years
i'm sorry but the speaker of the house
thinks shame is going to work on
Republicans hate to burst your bubble
but the you're going to be embarrassed
ship sailed a long time ago perhaps when
they started dressing like Donald
Trump's identical twins but just like
Trump's tariffs and his budget bill that
definitely adds to our nation's deficit
this very real Moody's downgrade is also
a case of nothing to see here i think
that Moody's is a lagging indicator i
think that's what everyone thinks of
credit agencies yes what a lesson to
teach any econ majors across our country
right now you didn't get the grade you
wanted this semester don't beat yourself
up just tell your professor they are a
lagging indicator and clearly can't wrap
their heads around your big beautiful
exam look denying reality is nothing new
for Donald Trump i think it's the only
way he can pass in front of the mirrors
without crying but this morning he
pivoted from lying about the economy to
lying about something entirely different
in an early Monday morning true social
post Trump saying he's going to call for
a major investigation into how much the
former vice president's camp paid
Hollywood celebrities who performed at
her campaign rallies during last year's
election trump pointing to reports that
Beyonce was paid $11 million and
questioning how much did Kla Harris pay
Bruce Springsteen going on to say "Isn't
that a major and illegal campaign
contribution?" Seriously a major
investigation let me save you some time
it didn't happen and even if it did
which it didn't the Federal Election
Commission actually has no regulations
against campaigns paying celebrities for
endorsements as long as they're properly
disclosed basically it's not a problem
to pay someone to blow you you just
can't lie about it but addressing what's
real and what isn't is a distinction
this White House and their loyal
henchmen couldn't care less about while
Trump engages in this deceitful spin and
commands everybody around him to do the
same the people who pay for it are
everyday Americans we are the ones who
foot the bill when Trump's lies mean
that we use our limited resources on
bogus investigations into Beyonce and
Bruce Springsteen we are the ones who
foot the bill when Trump's lies mean
that tariffs send our costs surging
we're the ones who foot the bill when
Trump's lies mean that Medicaid gets cut
for millions or tens of millions of
Americans what valid excuse does Trump
or anyone else in his administration
have for lying to everyday Americans
it's the nword
none
