The administration’s reliance on inconsistent rhetoric over economic transparency creates a dangerous disconnect with the public's lived reality. This failure of communication doesn't just cause confusion; it systematically erodes the foundational trust required for effective governance.

WHITE HOUSE CHAOS: There is NO PLAN!Added:
And they're on gas prices. How much longer will Americans continue to see these high gas prices?
>> Well, they're not very high. If you look at what they were supposed to be in order to get rid of a nuclear weapon with the danger that entails. So, the uh gas prices have come down very much over the last 3 days.
>> I know. You know, that's what ABC says.
But the fact is that uh if you look at the stock market's up, everything's doing really well.
It is now 453 days since a day that will live in infamy, Donald's last inauguration day.
Things are going just great.
One of the biggest questions I have though is will the Oval Office be able to withstand all of the weight of that extra gold Donald keeps piling on, or will it go the way of the East Wing and collapse in on itself?
Here we are sitting in the middle of an unconstitutional war of choice in Iran.
Prices across the board are rising.
But that sounds wrong.
How is that possible?
An illegal unconstitutional war of choice. Higher prices, higher inflation.
That sounds like exactly the opposite, like the diametric opposite of what we were promised, right? No more Forever Wars, everything would be cheaper.
Yeah. Well, we're looking at back at week 65 to mock the person who lied about all of that, as well as all of his cronies and all of the enablers who are responsible for most of it. As I mentioned, prices are high and getting higher, and that is uppermost on everybody's mind. Even on CNBC where a National Economic Council advisor and inappropriate smiler Kevin Hasset had something pretty interesting to say this week. Basically, in the world of imagination, anything is possible. I don't know, maybe like Pete Hagsath who is stealing from Quenton Tarantino's movie Pulp Fiction, Hasset was stealing from Charlie in the Chocolate Factory. Who knows? Or Willy Wonka, I should say.
Because seriously, just imagine, use your imagination.
If energy costs somehow went down, wouldn't things be better?
>> Yeah. I mean, the grocery stuff is has been better news, but, you know, electricity prices are high. People feel that we've seen health insurance and medical fees high. We've seen airline fairs go up. I mean, there there are still pockets of of hotter numbers and and Americans feel those, too, >> of course. and and and and those things that you're mentioning are energy related and and anyone who looks at a chart for energy prices will see that they've gone up uh quite a bit uh since uh the situation with Iran began but uh the president is confident that it can be resolved and when it's resolved that those prices will go right back down to where they were before and then you do that and you and you pile on top of that the fact that core inflation is running around 2%. In fact, for the consumer price index, it had it rounded up to 0.2. It was actually the 0.1 range. Uh and and so when you've got that plus imagine if if oil prices start going back down because the situation resolves itself somehow, then you could be looking at at inflation close to zero.
>> So that's something that the Fed needs to pay attention to because remember energy prices going down would feed through just as you know CPI topline CPI has said, energy prices going up right now.
Yeah. Yes. If you're round two up to one and then round one up to zero. Tada. And also, by the way, Donald is telling us that gas prices are going to go down any minute now. I think he said two weeks.
Oh, wow. That's exhausting. I don't know how he does that. I want us to imagine something else.
Gas prices not going down. In fact, gas prices going up, which I'm sorry to say seems the most likely, most realistic outcome.
That is what Donald told Maria Bartromo on Fox Day TV this week. She asked him whether prices would come down before the midterms, and he wasn't really sure.
And then he began to ramble about how unfairly he's treated by the press. Take a look. So, do you So, do you believe the price of oil and gas will be lower before the midterm elections?
>> I hope so. I mean, I think so. It could be. It could be or the same or maybe a little bit higher, but uh it should be around the same. I think this won't be that much longer. They're wiped out.
They're wiped out. And you don't get the you don't get a fair shake. You don't get You know, we need we need a free and fair press in this country. And I I don't even know why people would do that. Why would they say how wonderful they're doing militarily? They're doing so well. They're totally The country is wiped out.
>> Which our country? Yes, our country is wiped out. Thanks, Donald. And did he call her Mary? It's what it sounded like, but no relation.
Donald doesn't know. Why doesn't he know? Well, because knowing would mean admitting the truth that prices are going to continue to go up for the foreseeable future, and it is highly unlikely they will be coming down in time for the midterms, which unless the Republicans can rig them sufficiently, will be an absolute, to borrow a quite a phrase from Barack Obama, shellacking.
And here we are now for one of our least f favorite segments of the show, the take it or leave it moment. Yep. White House press secretary Ava Brown beginning to think that's unfair to Ava.
Nah, she was vile. Uh Levit weighed in on gas prices this week in the White House briefing room and she did she did what she does best. I don't think I need to tell you what that is because you're gonna watch as she tells everyone that thanks to Donald. You and you and you.
You're all all of you are getting ponies.
Your $2,000 rebate checks to Donald's tariffs will be in the mail any second now. And hopefully they will arrive to you before the United States Post Office is driven into bankruptcy. And of course, the most obvious thing, gas prices have actually gone down.
Do not believe your own lying eyes.
>> You expect gas prices uh to decrease.
And thank goodness we have a president in an administration that believes in American energy dominance in bringing down prices at the pump. Look at how gas prices decreased over the past year since this president was in office. It's a stark contrast to the previous administration.
Oh wow. Yes, the previous administration. I do we even remember who was in the previous administration?
That seems like it was several millennia ago. Oh, forget about millennia.
Geological epochs.
Now, we know that they have no choice but to lie because things are so bad and they are so incompetent. Now, during that same press conference, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett was asked whether we'd see $3 gas this summer, and his answer was exactly what it needed to be for him. Misleading.
>> Thank you. And Secretary Besson, it doesn't sound like we're going to have $3 a gallon gas by summertime, which we had initially been told by the TR by the uh energy secretary. He now says uh that it would be very aggressive if we're going to get to the $3 a gallon gas by the summer. So, when are we really going to get $3 a gallon gas?
>> Well, I think that's going to be the uh up to how how the negotiations go.
President Trump said this morning that he thinks we're nearing the end. Uh the US kept their side on the ceasefire. We've stopped firing. The straits of our mouth have not been completely reopened. Uh so we will see and I'm optimistic uh that during the summer we will see gas with a three in front of it sooner rather than later.
Wow. First of all, that was a deeply alarming pause. We are at the end of the US.
Yeah, that's actually probably the only oddest thing he said. By the way, a gallon of gas with a three in front of it, well, congratulations. Instead of $4, you might soon be paying the very low price of $3.99.
Well done.
Obviously, nobody in the Trump regime has any way to answer simple, straightforward questions about the disaster they have gotten this country into. They cannot answer straightforward questions about rising prices or when the war will end. Why? Because there are no they don't have any answers. I want to show you this next clip and think about Donald so-called laser focus on what are for most Americans the most important issues of the day.
Watch Maria Bart Romo's face when he answers her question about his blockade of the Straight of Hormuz, which of course comes in the wake of Iran already having closed the straight.
Her reaction is quite something. Check it out.
>> Well, I can tell you that it used to be called the Gulf of Mexico. That's what I can tell you. Now it's called the Gulf of America because of me. One of my little things that I did, you know, one of my little sidelines. And it's a great honor. People are so happy. You go to Louisiana, you go to Florida, you go to these states, Texas, they're so honored by it. I used to wait say, why why is that the Gulf of Mexico when we have 93% of the frontage? And you know, it fronts 93% of the United States. I said, I think I'm going to change it to the Gulf of America. What a beautiful name. And I did. And I I give a lot of credit to Google because once I filed the papers, I did it. and Google map once Google map changed you know did it it was it was a done deal but we had we had lawsuits we had lost we won everything and it's now the Gulf of America which I'm very which I'm very honored by >> but but do you >> I was thinking about I must tell you I was thinking about calling it the Gulf of Trump >> and I decided not to do it. I think maybe it was a wise I think that one maybe wouldn't have worked out. I'm not so sure. You'll have to tell me. But I was thinking about it's going to be called the Gulf of Trump and then I said, you know, that's not going to play too well.
>> I I I think you're you're >> you know, I'm kidding.
>> I think you're being you're being facicious. I know that headline.
>> Um, can somebody get him some pudding?
What is there to say? Because again that was in response to a question about the straight of Hormuz which Donald joked about renaming the Trump straight because he wants to tell is it the straight of hormones? Is it the hormone straight? Can it be the Trump straight?
He doesn't have a sense of humor. He doesn't joke about such things. He's very proud of the fact that Google, an entity he was suing for billions and billions of dollars, decided to change on Google Maps the name of the Gulf of Mexico. It is not the Gulf of America. Google Maps notwithstanding.
That was just probably part of the settlement of a ridiculously frivolous lawsuit that ended with their handing over $24.5 million to Donald because they had the audacity to kick him off of YouTube after he incited an insurrection against our country. So listen, you look at the face of somebody like Maria Barto Romo who knows exactly what's going on here and you can tell that the wheels are starting to fall off. Not soon enough, but they understand that there will come a time in the not too distant future where they are not going to be able to let that guy out in public anymore.
It's completely understandable if you're starting to feel confused because it looks like it sometimes feels like every other person the Trump regime is contradicting every other person the Trump regime and sometimes people like Donald are contradicting themselves.
Thankfully, we have Donald's energy secretary, Chris Wright, who uh was speaking earlier this week at a pipeline energy event in New York and actually did a pretty good job of clearing up the confusion about what is going on in this country. I think it was honest, it was straightforward, and coming in at about 10 seconds, it was quite succinct, which is something we cannot say about anything Donald ever says. Check it out.
Just because it looks like we're going the wrong direction does not mean that's the direction we're going. So the you're going the wrong way.
Got it? Just because it looks like you're going in the wrong direction doesn't mean you are. Well, guess what?
Yes, it does. And that does it for us.
Thanks so much for joining me for this week's episode of Trump Trolls Trump. We will be back next week. So, please take a second to like and share this video uh with friends, with enemies. My favorite people that you should share it with are people who hate me because that's that's fun. Um, and you know, you never know, right? You never know whose mind might be changed. There's somebody out there who probably needs to see the work that Mary Trump media is doing. Remember, mockery is a superpower and we will be here every week to pile it on because they give us so much material with which to work for which we should be grateful. But nah, [ __ ] those guys. Please subscribe to the channel if you haven't already and we will see you next week. Thanks again.
Please, please, please, Mr. President, we're winning too much. We can't take it anymore.
