Trump Thinks He’s Hotter Than Zohran Mamdani

“It’s finally happened,” Trump complained in a rant on Truth Social. “The Democrats have crossed the line. Zohran Mamdani, a 100% Communist Lunatic, has just won the Dem Primary. We’ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting ridiculous. He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he’s not very smart.”

Say what you will about Zohran Mamdani, but it’s not easy to find a picture of him not looking good. And for Trump to say that, well we don’t need to stoop to the president’s level…

Trump then goes on (and on) in his post claiming that “even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him.” So not only is America’s leader using a nationality as a racist, derogatory term, but he’s also wrong. Cryin’ Chuck is one of the most vehement supporters of Israel, receiving at least $1.7 million from AIPAC, and leading the charge to supply Israel to the teeth with weapons. There was one time when he criticized Netanyahu, calling for a different Israeli politician to lead the genocide against Palestinians.

And for that, Trump slanders him as “Palestinian.”

Trump’s not the only one having a meltdown – we watch Fox News and CNN pundits freak out about a potential Mamdani Mayorship, and for a podcast that doesn’t usually get to feel good about anything, we have to say it’s pretty sweet to watch.

Plus, Joy Reid surprisingly embarrasses some racist, anti-Iranian hooligans on CNN, dropping truths about the US’s history of regime change, the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt is mad at “the woke right” which includes Tucker Carlson, and State Department Spokesperson Tammy Bruce declares that America is “the greatest country on Earth… next to Israel.”

It’s an embarrassing day for the losers on corporate media – Katie and Aaron are laughing at all of them. Thanks for supporting independent media, subscribe to watch the full episode here:
