Trump Storms Out of Meet the Press Interview After Being Challenged on Election Lies: "You Are Either Crooked or You're Stupid"
Trump walked out of a taped Meet the Press interview with Kristen Welker on a Wisconsin farm after she pressed him on his false claims that the California primary was "rigged." When asked for evidence: "All I have to do is look, and I listen." When told there was no evidence: "You are either crooked or you're stupid." He then removed his microphone and left, saying "Thank you, darling." During the same interview he denied promising "no wars," said Jan. 6 rioters "should be compensated," called the Iran war "not an endless war — we've been doing this for three months," and was fact-checked by NBC on multiple false claims. His approval is at a record low of 34% — below his own first-term floor.
Trump Posts 60+ Times in 14 Hours After Kennedy Center Ruling — Attacks Judge's Wife, Shares AI Slop, Says Center Should "Never Open Again"
After a judge ordered Trump's name removed from the Kennedy Center, the president spent 14 hours posting 60+ times on Truth Social from his golf course. In a 700-word opening rant, he called the center "rusted, rotted, and rat and bug infested," attacked Judge Cooper's wife by name, accused the judge of a "total Conflict of Interest" that merits criminal charges, threatened the center would be "closed, probably never to open again," and declared the court system "RIGGED." He then spent the rest of the day sharing AI-generated images of himself on Mount Rushmore, commanding a space station, and walking with an alien. He also attacked the Pope, the judge blocking his White House ballroom, and Gavin Newsom — whom he depicted in a padded cell. His posting pace: 565 posts in April alone, a third of them at night.

Trump Rages at Supreme Court in 1 AM Meltdown: Justices Should Watch Fox News
At 1 AM, Trump posted that the Supreme Court should have "studied" Mark Levin's Fox News show to understand the 14th Amendment. This after his own appointees were skeptical at oral arguments, Roberts told him "It's the same Constitution," and he left the hearing early.
"Meltdown": House GOP Rejects Senate DHS Deal, Prolonging 42-Day Shutdown
