Ben Meiselas: 今天是特朗普灾难性的一天。在威胁要与伊朗开战后,他逃回新泽西州的贝德明斯特,用纳税人的钱继续打高尔夫球,还在社交媒体上发布威胁信息,比如“撤离德黑兰,我们要杀了你,阿亚图拉”。然后他说他需要两周时间去打高尔夫。全世界都认为特朗普非常虚弱和可悲,而他打高尔夫球的行为再次证明了这一点。他在周五发布各种内容,包括包含QAnon口号的迷因图片,例如“相信计划”、“没有什么能阻止即将发生的事情”、“我曾经是被猎者,现在是猎人”。他甚至在G7会议上待了不到五个小时就离开了,因为他和其他世界领导人在一起感到尴尬。他还发布了一张迷因图片,暗示他将成为第48任总统,成为终身独裁者。MAGA的支持者们正在呼应特朗普将成为第48任总统的说法。一些MAGA网红对美国外交政策有很大的影响力。特朗普发布的内容让人不清楚美国是否会向伊朗派兵,以及特朗普政府是否计划在伊朗进行政权更迭。他还发布了一些其他帖子,包括祝贺一位女性获奖,并评论说她有“伟大的基因”,以及一张随机女性吹泡泡的照片。他还转发了一张照片,照片上说特朗普是共和党唯一的原因,他们还有选民。他还发布了一张奥巴马跪在一堆钱旁边的照片,并指责他应对伊朗核计划负责。我认为特朗普是个可悲、卑鄙的人。他威胁要对伊朗开战,然后又说他需要两周时间去打高尔夫。哈里·恩滕不得不承认特朗普在洛杉矶问题上失去了政治斗争,他在洛杉矶问题的净支持率非常低,在独立人士中的净支持率更低。联邦化国民警卫队对抗和平抗议者以及派遣蒙面盖世太保是不受欢迎的。蒙面移民海关执法人员在洛杉矶进行突袭,逮捕移民。一名男子的妻子被拘留,他不知道她被带到哪里去了。被拘留的人是努力工作、为美国做出贡献的好人。一名被拘留的妇女怀孕了。我认为美国有一个病态的政权。特朗普的帖子旁边播放的广告谎称经济状况良好。特朗普政府关于工资增长和通货膨胀的数据是虚假的。制造业繁荣发生在拜登执政时期,而不是特朗普执政时期。费城联储的就业数据是自2024年4月以来最差的。领先的劳动力市场指标已经恶化。人们越来越担心美国经济数据的质量。目前消费者价格指数中,几乎三分之一的价格是基于其他数据收集的猜测。我认为特朗普政府可能在通货膨胀数据中放入了不正确的数据。特朗普政府一开始就针对数据收集员。商业状况出现了10年来最大的下降。中国试图成为世界领导者,呼吁以色列在伊朗冲突中尽快停火。习近平和普京正在就以色列-伊朗危机向世界传递统一战线的信号。中国和俄罗斯正在呼吁停火,并表示美国需要缓和言辞。欧盟与伊朗官员在瑞士会面,而美国没有参与。普京和习近平正在讨论该地区应该停火,而特朗普却在发布QAnon帖子。我认为这种情况非常可悲。

Donald Trump is having a disastrous Friday. He had to run back to his safe space to play some more golf on the taxpayer dime at Bedminster, New Jersey, after threatening war in Iran and saying, evacuate Tehran now, we're going to kill you, Ayatollah, and posts like that. And then he said, I need two weeks. I got to go and play golf.

The whole world thinks Donald Trump is utterly weak and pathetic, and he proves them right once again while golfing. Here are the types of things that he is posting right now on Friday. He's posting memes, QAnon slogans. Here's what he posted. A photo of himself that says, trust the plan. What is the plan? Nothing can stop what's coming.

Okay, that sounds like a QAnon slogan. What's coming? I was the hunted and now I'm the hunter.

Dude, you couldn't even last more than five hours at the G7 before you were so embarrassed to be there with actual world leaders who knew what they were doing that you had to leave and head back to Washington, D.C. right away. Then Donald Trump posts the following, quote,

The Golden Age. It's a photo of himself. Another meme. Donald J. Trump, 45, 47, 48. We need this winning to continue. Oh, Donald, 48? Oh, you're going to be a dictator for life? What a funny meme to be posting on Friday. That makes you really strong, Donald, to post memes saying that you're going to be the 48th president and be a dictator. Horrible.

Ha ha ha ha, really funny. And by the way, all of the MAGA supporters were echoing that today. So after Donald Trump said that he was going to be the 48th president by posting this, the MAGAs reacted. All the MAGA influencers who are having a huge say over American foreign policy, like the rapper Forgot Yo Blow and someone named

Whoa, something is their name. These people have major influence over American foreign policy. Here they are reacting to Donald Trump saying that he's going to be the 48th president in a post. Play this clip. 48th president Trump. Show him your new hat. Show him your new hat. Woo!

And while Americans are not clear whether or not American troops are going to be sent to Iran, what's the plan? Is the Trump regime planning regime change in Iran? Is that going to lead to a broader regional conflagration? What's happening? Donald Trump is making posts like this.

Congratulations to Maya Lesner on the win from Colorado State. Great genetics. And I guess they show the photo next to her dad who was like in the WWE or something. Great genetics, Donald Trump says. Then he posts a photo of a random woman blowing bubbles.

And this says, thank you so much. But the Republicans have a great party. They are working hard to make America great again, exclamation point. And the photo that Donald Trump is posting and then commenting on the photo he's posting says, is anyone going to tell the GOP that Trump is the only reason that they have any voters left?

Then Donald Trump makes this post of former President Barack Obama kneeling next to a bunch of money. And it says, we know who is responsible for Iran's nuclear program.

You're blaming former President Obama for Iran's nuclear program. Like, do we all realize what a pathetic, vile piece of shit Donald Trump is? And excuse my language, but when I show you that I don't know the right word to capture what an actual piece of shit he is like as a human being, just as a basic human being.

You know, he can't even stay more than a few hours with the G7 leaders because he's utterly pathetic. He threatens war against Iran with American troops. I'm going to kill you, Ayatollah. Everybody evacuate Tehran now. Then he says he needs two weeks to go and play golf. Meanwhile, he's federalizing National Guard troops. Doesn't even happen.

I'm going to show this clip because this guy, Harry Enten on CNN, he's been spending the past two weeks.

saying, oh, Donald Trump knows immigration's his best issue. This is why he's doing it. This is a winning issue for him. Well, Harry Enten had to eat his words this morning. Here's what Harry Enten had to say. Play this clip. I think we can say that Donald Trump has lost the political battle when it comes to what has happened out in Los Angeles. Donald Trump's net approval rating on the Los Angeles process. Look at this overall. Way

Way, way, way underwater at minus 15 points. How about among independents or those who don't identify with either major party? Way even lower. Look at that. Minus 24 points on the net approval rating. And of course, this is happening on what should be one of Donald Trump's, in fact, the best issue for Donald Trump, immigration. And yet when it comes to these Los Angeles protests, 15 points underwater overall and 24 points underwater among independents. No way.

Yeah, as we've been saying on the Midas Touch Network, it is not popular federalizing the National Guard and sending them against peaceful protesters and escalating the situations. Nor is it popular to send a masked Gestapo, a la the KKK, let's just call it out what it is, a masked Gestapo who's walking around our cities saying,

Going to Home Depots, raiding street vendors who are selling food to people, going into factories and restaurants. Let me share this with you as well. This was from our local news channel in Los Angeles, KTLA. And you'll see how these masks for the international audience. I mean, you got to be watching this. And I mean, for Americans,

how this is happening in the United States. We have masked ice Gestapo who run around and chase people, throw them on the ground, uh, migrants and disappear them pregnant woman thrown to the ground. I mean, just shipped out. I mean, imagine the stress that's being caught here, play this clip at the home Depot on sunset. Um,

where you have a lot of people, migrants who are there to work and contribute to our economy. And then there was also a lot of food vendors who would sell food to the people who would wait to work and help build homes and things like that. Here, play this clip. Several...

People were running upwards Wilton's Place. I informed them that ICE agents were around the area. They were aware of that and then that's when an SUV pulled up, came out. Two agents tackled down an individual with no questions. They placed his face into the dirt, physically apprehending him.

And we reached out to officials for more details on today's raid. They said while they can't comment on every single operation, these raids continue on a daily basis and that today's raid was routine, routine federal immigration law enforcement operation.

You're out here. We've been seeing the gentleman who's been very emotional. His wife was detained. He has no idea where she was taken. But you said some of the people detained today were also your neighbors. That's right. My neighbors, unfortunately, got taken. They are not bad people. They are not criminals. They are hard workers. They came here for a better life because that's what the United States is about, right? You have freedom. You come here for a better life because, unfortunately, you run from countries, your own home. That's not the best, right? Yeah.

You come here looking for a better life. You come here for sanctuary. You come here to think that you're gonna make it out here. But unfortunately, with these people coming and taking our own people, the people that constructed California, the people that work for California, the people who do a lot for us, right?

They're taking them. What are you going to do when we're not here? What are you going to do when you have nobody left to work with? And the woman you mentioned who was taken, she's pregnant? She's actually pregnant. That's the saddest part. She's pregnant. She must have been scared. You don't know if this is going to cause you stress to her baby. You don't know if she might lose the baby from...

What a sick regime we have here in the United States. You're smart enough to know when something's not working, like when you can't focus at work or when you're dragging by 2 p.m. or when your stomach feels like it's fighting you after every meal.

Oh, these are the ads that are running by Donald Trump's post. Photos of him kicking the screen that says Trump's bold plan to abolish the IRS. 50 year governor, government, governor, insider, government insider reveals all. Then they just start lying about the economy. Lowest inflation in four years, says Kevin Hassett, Donald Trump's national economic advisor. Inflation is rising rapidly.

inflation is not the inflation is going up right now we heard from the chairman of the federal reserve jerome powell by the way most americans expect inflation will now hit 7.3 over the next 12 months the highest reading in 44 years like if we're talking about real data but the regime says

Your prices are down. Your gas is 198, according to the regime. Department of Treasury just announced the largest blue-collar wage growth in over 60 years. Wow. Made up. Entirely false. Not happening. There was a manufacturing boom under former President Biden, not under Donald Trump. The Philly Fed employment data is the worst since April 2024.

but nearly the worst since the third quarter of 2019 right now, negative 9.8. All of the leading labor market indicators have worsened. More concerns now also about the quality of the U.S. economic data, that are we even actually getting accurate economic data at all from the Trump regime? And the economic data is bad, but as Apollo, you know, like the

private equity firm Apollo says almost a third of prices going in to the consumer price index, the CPI at the moment, are guesses based on other data collections in the CPI. So the way we're even determining inflation right now is guesswork. And when it comes from the Trump regime, I'm willing to

I'm willing to guess that they are putting incorrect data into the inflation data that we're getting on a month-to-month, quarter-to-quarter basis. And one of the things they went after were the data collectors right away.

When you go into the supermarket, when you go into a store, are you seeing lower prices or are you seeing higher prices? Because I'm seeing higher, but it's pretty clear to me what I am observing. Also, you have outside of one month in COVID, we now see this 29 point drop in business conditions is the largest in 10 years. And meanwhile, you have China.

China trying to assert itself as the world leader, saying Israel should cease fire in Iran conflict as soon as possible.

to prevent the situation from escalating. Xi Jinping and Putin spoke on Thursday, and they're presenting a united front in the world in messaging the Israel-Iran crisis. They're the ones now out there calling for a ceasefire and saying that the U.S. needs to tone down its rhetoric. Just think about that.

What's happened in the past 48 hours? You have the European Union meeting with Iranian officials in Switzerland. No U.S. Right. And then you have Putin and Xi Jinping meeting. And they're the ones talking about there should be a ceasefire in the region. And Donald Trump is making QAnon posts. The hunter has become the hunted. Photos of former President Obama. It
