Donald Trump is still unable to tell everyone the truth: He ONLY cares about himself. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.
*This transcript was generated by a third-party transcription software company, so please excuse any typos. When is Trump going to say what he'll do for the country instead of himself? When will people realize he has no platform for the country, and why do people cheer for him? I think that's a wonderful question, and I think it's a question that obviously these media outlets that are talking to Trump all the time, they're not asking, you know, they let him come on TV and he'll sit there and he'll whine about the 2020 election. He'll, he'll whine about this, he'll attack his opponents. He'll say, you know, whatever is making him mad that day with the investigations. But nowhere along the lines are people actually saying like, all right, hold up, shut up. What are you actually gonna do? Like, like how are you gonna fix the economy? What's your plan on the economy? That trade war you started is actually still going on? Like, how are you gonna end it? What's the end game there, Donald? And every time they ask him about policies, what does he say? He talks about crime, but he has no solution. He talks about migrants. His only solution to that is finish the wall. And that's about it. The guy has no ideas. But listen, this is not just limited to Donald Trump. The entire Republican party has no ideas. They have no idea how to govern. The only thing they know how to do is fight a culture war. That doesn't mean anything and cut taxes. That's it. They cut taxes, they go to culture war, they cut taxes, they go to culture war. I mean, hell, they've already introduced legislation this summer I that would cut taxes for the wealthy elite, right after the whole debt ceiling debacle. They immediately went back to the, all right, let's cut taxes now. This is what we gotta do. It is the only thing they know how to do because none of them have any real ideas on how to fix the economy. They don't know how to deal with inflation. They don't know how to work and create regulations so that people don't, I don't know, die in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean on a submarine made of duct tape. They don't know how to do any of this. And I'm not saying Democrats are perfect with any of it, believe me. But Democrats actually do have ideas. I Medicare for all. It's a great idea. It's the best idea. This is the best thing we could do for the country. But Republicans aren't pushing that. A lot of their voters like it. You know, two years ago, majority of their voters liked it. But Democrats have some ideas. Republicans have no ideas, and Trump is not the exception. He is not the only Republican running for president that doesn't know what the hell he's doing. That statement can be applied to every single Republican, not just running for office, but every one of them that also currently holds office.
