0:00The most painful part about watching this infatuation with Trump from my right wing brothers, sisters, friends, and family is that he's conned so many people that I actually care about. Trump has injured every one of my conservative friends, with rare exception, because many of them are only now starting to realize and admit to themselves at least that they were wrong about Donald Trump. Conservatives were wrong about Donald Trump, and nothing in this world would convince me to think otherwise. You know, that is, unless he somehow abolished the income tax for the bottom 80%, but that's never going to happen.

0:34Reverend News Talk and Opinion without agenda. Well, maybe an anti-Trump agenda. I'll give you that one. It's Newsweek Radio. Speculation and satire abound. And you know what? I don't even think Trump is the worst president ever. I think he's the worst American in American history, in my not-so-humble opinion. And somehow, he just made the brutal murder of Rob and Michelle Reiner about himself in his typical dim-witted fashion with this dumbass post on his failed Truth Social about how Rob Reiner suffered from Trump derangement syndrome. No, Donald, you self-centered scumbag. Rob Reiner was definitely a liberal, but he was spot on about you.

1:15And you aren't even half the man or the creative genius that he was, and you never will be, you pathetic excuse for a human being. Trump's inability to resist centering himself in somebody's murder says far more about him than anything Rob Reiner ever said. That should be embarrassing enough for Trump to never show his ugly face in public ever again. but it isn't because this disgusting pig has no shame. I'll vote for whoever promises to deport Donald Trump, assuming he lives long enough to deport him. I will vote for whoever promises to deport Donald Trump, assuming he lives long enough to do that.

1:51Yeah, how about a one-way coach flight to the slums of Caracas, Venezuela, where the locals can introduce him to the neighborhood? Do you remember that Trump told Elon Musk before they had their big falling out in a public conversation that Venezuela was where he was going to run if Kamala beat him in that election. You might remember that conversation from last year because it sounded like Trump's dentures were falling out for the entire recording. We'll meet the next time in Venezuela because it'll be a far safer place to meet than our country. OK, so we'll go. You and I will go and we'll have a meeting and dinner in Venezuela because he's not even playing the game.

2:26He's cheating. He's whatever he needs to be at the moment to get more money because money is the only thing this creep cares about more than, you know, grabbing women by the genitals. Grabbing by the pussy. I don't think that Trump is going to survive 2026 politically or physically for that matter, just based on his increasingly deteriorated state of mind and shrinking body. A lot of us have been around long enough in this life to see what it looks and sounds like when grandpa stops making any sense and needs to sell the family car. Not to mention the constant hand bruising, repeated cognitive tests and MRI scans.

2:58So it's person, woman, man, camera, TV. If you don't see the trajectory of what Trump is going to look and sound like one year from now, two years from now, then I'm not sure what to tell you. Maybe you haven't been around the elderly much in your lifetime enough to know the signs of the human body beginning to shut down, but a lot of us are aware of what's going on. It's pretty obvious. But aside from the physical and solely based on politics alone, Trump has been burning every bridge there is to burn between himself and his base over the last year. And every single day, he's losing more and more diehard Flavor-Aid cult-level followers like Marjorie Taylor Greene.

3:35Yeah, the Jim Jones people didn't use Kool-Aid. It was Flavor-Aid because they were cheap asses. But looking at Marjorie Taylor Greene as a representative in the truest sense of that word, outside of the state of Georgia, she also represents oceans of conservative hearts and minds who have flipped on a dime and become his political enemy overnight. And I think that's what's going to happen collectively between Trump and his base the day after the 2026 midterm elections. Because regardless of how the GOP performs, and it's not looking good for them, Donald Trump will be of no more use to the GOP or the base, and he'll ultimately be discarded as such as the liability that he is by his closest followers, not his opposition.

4:18This is the fate of all tyrants. They're always betrayed by those closest to them because the ones closest to them are the people who want to be king themselves. Keep an eye on Marco Rubio and a very close eye on J.D. Vance. And aside from running for office, keep a close eye on Kash Patel. Do you honestly think that somebody like him is going to remain loyal to Trump when he's inevitably and unceremoniously fired from the FBI by Trump in a social media post? We've all seen this movie dozens of times before in Trump 1.0. I would give myself an A+. And the show is just getting started with 2.0 one year in.

4:55I wonder what grade you would give. A+. A+. A+++++. It didn't just start with Marjorie Taylor Greene either. If you remember, this all started with someone who was much closer with Trump at the time. Too close, in fact.

5:17You remember the 2024 bromance between Trump and Elon Musk? Those two butt buddies were joined at the hip for months until one day Musk said that Trump was in the Epstein list. That's not just a casual passing glance. That is all out war. What I'm interested in is who's next. I think it's the only way that J.D. Vance could ever hope to become interesting enough to vote for. But he also needs Trump's endorsement, assuming that means anything after the Epstein files drop. I mean, if Trump is directly implicated without being redacted, it would make things a hundred times easier for J.D. to detach himself.

5:53But something tells me that nobody's going to want the stank of Trump's cheese touch leading into the 2028 elections, especially if his cheese is sliding off the proverbial cracker at the time. person, woman, man, camera TV. Because if Trump starts having conversations with his breakfast soon, they're not going to keep him around for that alone because it projects an image of weakness, which seems to be the only image that Trump is capable of projecting at this point based on his blatant insecurities about being such a failure nepo baby. That's all Trump's ever been, a silver spoon nepo baby who was born rich, squandered billions, and grifted his way to the top of a system that rewards corrupt incompetence at every level.

6:34This is what makes him the worst American in American history. Trump has until Friday to release the Epstein files as of this recording. And a lot of us are assuming that it's going to be another nothing burger of binders with already public information again like he tried to pull the last time. Either that or he's going to start a war with Venezuela and declare martial law to stop the release. I wouldn't put it past him, not just my speculation either. I've seen these ideas splattered all over the internet, just like the inside of my skull over the last 72 hours. It's a valid concern because we all know that Trump will try anything that he thinks he can get away with based on his track record as president alone.

7:10Never mind his personal dumpster fires of his professional and personal lives lived, which are also unmitigated disasters. Is it are also or were also unmitigated disasters? Because he's already lived his life and ruined everything he's ever touched, so I don't think there's any need to act like the man isn't already kind of past tense in almost every way. We're all just waiting around to see you escorted off the White House property, Donald, which you've also somehow destroyed and sent off to a nursing home that they'll inevitably tell you is just like a country club, so we never have to see your ugly face on camera ever, ever again.

7:46I understand that a lot of us are absolutely sick and tired of this goon, and I do look forward to the day where I never have to talk about the degenerate con artist ever again, which is going to be impossible if I ever want to maintain a working interest in politics because he's going to be a part of the conversation in American politics for the rest of my lifetime, at least. Hopefully as a guidebook on how not to elect politicians going forward. I've got another 35 to 45 years tops on this planet if I'm lucky. So I hope that I'm lucky enough to see the day where we can get past this level of toxic politics.

8:18And don't give me the nonsense that I'm being toxic against Donald Trump. I mean, I struggle with my hatred of this person because he represents the figurehead of toxic politics. And sometimes we're required as human beings to fight fire with fire and call things out as they actually are. Trump deserves no decorum because he's never given any. He deserves no respect because he doesn't even know the meaning of the word, unless it's pointed towards him. And Trump deserves absolutely no sympathy at this point, because both his heart and mind are void of anything that could be mistaken for sympathy.

8:51The most painful part about watching this infatuation with Trump from my right-wing brothers, sisters, friends, and family is that he's conned so many people that I actually care about. Trump has injured every one of my conservative friends, with rare exception, because many of them are only now starting to realize and admit to themselves at least that they were wrong about Donald Trump. Conservatives were wrong about Donald Trump, and nothing in this world would convince me to think otherwise. You know, that is, unless he somehow abolished the income tax for the bottom 80%, but that's never going to happen.

9:25So I'm not going to get my hopes up. I just kind of say that to be funny, but it's also a little bit true. I always try to give people the room to improve even my greatest enemies. And I do. I feel that Donald Trump is my enemy. I'm convinced that this person is the enemy of the people, and that half the country is only now starting to come to terms with that. And that's just another reason why, to me at least, that Donald Trump is the worst American in American history. And that's just Trump on a good day. Now throw in a little dementia and we're in for the show of our lives, which, you know, kind of feels wrong because it probably is.

9:59Because there's going to come a point in the not-so-distant future where it's no longer funny to make fun of Trump and the dumb things that fall out of his mouth hole. They use the word affordability. It's a Democrat hoax. Because if he stops having control over any of it, we can't just keep on pointing and laughing at him for fun because that's not right and that's not how civilized people should behave. Right now, it's still okay because he's a contemptible twat and deserves to be ridiculed for what he's doing to our country, so it's fair game. But that is about to change really soon, if it hasn't already, maybe.

10:31And I guess that's the question I've been struggling to find all day. have we reached the point where Trump's dementia is so advanced that it's no longer cool to make fun of the guy? Don't worry, that's only a rhetorical question. And I think the answer is no anyway, because what's good for the goose is good for the gander, and this goose is cooked with the American people. He doesn't even realize that a majority of his own base is getting ready to flip on him overnight because there is no honor among thieves. And there's nothing else that Trump is willing or capable of doing for the right wing.

11:00So get ready for a chorus of tried and true Republicans to start acting like they never knew the name of the modern GOP Christ Donald Trump, aka the worst American in American history. The only upside here is that we are rapidly entering the post-Trump era, so I'm going to get my pregame going on, and for that alone, I think it's incredibly important for us to support those who come out against him, even if only for political theatrics. When it happens, share the news calmly and confidently with your conservative friends and family to remind them that it's okay to leave Trump in the gutter where he belongs because it's never too late to do the right thing.

11:35And if you're a liberal who doesn't have any conservative friends or family, then I feel sorry for you, genuinely, because deep down conservatives are good people with the best of intentions who got hijacked and co-opted by extremists. I can and often do say the same thing about the left, even though that's more of a mob mentality without a central figurehead. We've got to start thinking in terms of the center again, if only to distance ourselves from this toxic brand of politics that Trump and the far left has infected America and the world with over the last decade. I'm not dumb enough to think that it's going to solve all of our problems, but anything to put this prolific grifter behind us once and for all will be good for all of us.

12:14That's it for today. So until we can do it again, it's Newsweek Radio. I'm Jesse Edwards. Catch you next time. Bye. And we say bye bye. Newsweek Radio is a member of the Trust Project. I would give myself an A plus. I wonder what grade you would give your economy? A plus. A plus. A plus plus plus plus plus.
