Donald Trump tried to attack President Biden as being "incompetent" during his Florida rally this week, but his claim immediately fell apart because the former President then proceeded to completely trip over himself while talking about foreign policy. Not only did Trump begin praising bloodthirsty dictators, but he also screwed up basic geography, making him look like the incompetent one compared to President Biden. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.

During his rally in Hial, Florida this week, Donald Trump attacked President Biden as both stupid and incompetent. Stupid and incompetent. And that, of course, goes in line with Donald Trump's most recent lines of attack against Biden. And that is, of course, Donald Trump is the only mentally competent person running for president. So if you're going to attack your opponent as being stupid, as being mentally incompetent, you'd better make sure you don't immediately flub the next few lines that you say. And unfortunately for Donald Trump, he immediately flubbed the next few lines that he said. So after he attacks Biden as stupid and incompetent, Donald Trump then went on to say this quote, this is the closest. And I hope that, that, that one's wrong and, and that it's not a prediction because I would never make that prediction. It's too horrible a thing to say. But, before I continue, I love that he's like, this is a horrible thing to say. I don't wanna say it, I shouldn't say it. I'm not gonna say it, I'm gonna say it. So he says, we have never been closer to World War III and only for one reason, we have incompetent people talking on our behalf. You know, when you deal with China, president Xi in North Korea, Kim Jong-UN and Russia, Putin, you deal with all these people. The press hates when I say they're smart. He said they were smart. Well, what am I supposed to say? They're stupid people. Kim Jong-un leads 1.4 billion people and there's no doubt about who the boss is. And they want me to say he's not an intelligent man, they get very personal when I say that because they're fake news that that's why they do that. They're fake, they're fake people and they're hurting our country very badly. 1.4 billion people just in North Korea. And Biden's the one who's incompetent now, he overinflated the population of North Korea by 1.37 billion. Or to put it in other words, as Mediaite explains, he inflated the population 58 times. Like made it 58 times greater than what it actually is. But Trump's the only mentally competent person running for office, right? Like, we should totally trust this guy to get us out of all the foreign policy mess that we have right now. He is praising these dictators again, just like he did the entire time he was in office. These dictators know how to get Donald Trump on their side. And all it takes, honest to God is a little bit of flattery. You get the guy in a meeting, you kick the press out, of course, like Trump did. And then those dictators are like, oh, you, You are Brilliant. We love you so much. And next thing you know, Trump's out there like, this is a great guy. This is a great guy. He's running a great country. They know who the boss is. Yeah, they know who the boss is. The boss is the guy that will kill them or put their entire family in a, you know, camp. If they criticize them or in, in Russia's uh uh, Putin's Russia. You say something bad about him. Next thing you know you're toppling out of a 13 story window. They know who the boss is because that's the person that will literally kill them if they criticize them. That's not something to admire. That's not smart. That's a dictator. Any idiot can be a dictator. It doesn't take a genius to pull that off, all it takes is a somewhat unstable country. A guy with a little bit of, you know, demagogue abilities. Next thing you know, binging bang, boom, you got a dictatorship on your hands. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8gQH7a2Ap0

Local economies could lose billions of dollars if Republican governors cancel enhanced unemployment benefits implemented during the pandemic to help Americans make ends meat. Brigida Santos is with me now to talk about that story. Brigida, why are Republicans, why are they so set on trying to cancel enhanced unemployment benefits early? This appears, yeah, this appears to be for political reasons because that money has already been appropriated. It's true that the most recent employment report from the Bureau of labor statistics reveals that millions of Americans still haven't returned to work despite millions of job openings. But claims that this is due to enhanced unemployment benefits, simply isn't supported by national data. The economy has only recovered 63% of the 22 million jobs lost at the peak of the pandemic. Employment trends are headed in the right direction, but this is of course going to take time. Many people are still worried about getting sick and the majority of recent labor gains have been realized by men. Many women left the workforce during the pandemic to care for their children and a lot of them still don't have childcare options yet. But as schools reopen and as kids return to classes, women will likely go back to work. Now, some major players, we've talked about this before, in the fast food industry that are claiming they're facing labor shortages are not accounting for the fact ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUDiS0gaJHI

Donald Trump has never been a good judge of character, and his lack of basic instincts are causing Republican insiders to worry about the people he is endorsing. A decent number of the people endorsed by Trump have been accused of assault against women, while others are embroiled in other types of scandals. That information, taken with the reports of Trump-endorsed candidates actually being less likely to win, paints a grim picture for Republicans' hopes of winning back the Senate in 2022. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Republican strategists are a little concerned right now about Donald Trump, of course, because Republican strategists are always concerned about Donald Trump. They've been wringing their hands for months and months, trying to figure out what to do is his presence going to loom over the midterms and cost us everything. Is he going to jump in the presidential race and cost us 2024? Well guess what? They have a new worry and it's a worry that I actually hit on in a video earlier this week about the problems that Trump has with the individuals that he is endorsed for office specifically in the upcoming elections, Sean Parnell from Pennsylvania. Uh, I believe in the earlier video accidentally said he was from Ohio he's Pennsylvania. And of course, Herschel Walker and Georgia, both men have been accused by women. Neither has been convicted or even charged, uh, with different forms of abuse. And in Parnell's case, the ex-wife, I guess she is now also accused him of hitting their child so hard that they left a weld on him. So two men, along with a long list of others, as I talked about in that previous video that Trump has endorsed, and Republicans are worried that ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4CkQsItNHE

In a court filing late last week, Donald Trump told Judge Tanya Chutkan that he wants the trial for his attempts to overturn the 2020 election results televised. The motion was filed in response to a ruling from Chutkan who essentially left the decision up to Trump. But now prosecutors are arguing against the measure, saying that televising the trial could intimidate potential witnesses. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Late Friday, Donald Trump and his legal team filed a notice to Judge Tanya Chut telling her that the former president of the United States is actually perfectly cool with televising his entire trial over his attempts to overturn the 2020 election results. Now, this filing was in response to Judge Tatkin, who just a week prior had effectively put Donald Trump in a box with a motion that she made in her motion. Judge Tatkin gave Donald Trump the option, basically telling him, you need to file a motion with this court telling us why or why not. Your trial should or should not be televised. So if you don't want it televised, you have to tell me specifically explicitly why you don't want it televised. And if you do, you gotta tell me why. There, too. She was, I think, kind of hoping that Donald Trump would chicken out. 'cause he said in the past he wanted it televised, but she thought maybe I, I, I think she thought putting him up against the wall would make him say, no, no, no, let's not do it. Now, the reason she even did that, because federal trials of course are not televised, but media outlets had banded together and requested that this one be televised. She entertained it, gave the option to Trump, his lawyers filed the motion and said, yep, we're good with it. So that's that, right? The, the whole trial should now be on T on tv. We get to see it, we get to watch it, we get to see every single thing play out in front of us. Not exactly, because unfortunately, even though the judge seems to be okay with it, the defendant seems to be okay with it. The press obviously is okay with it. Jack Smith is not special prosecutor. Jack Smith has told the court that he absolutely under no circumstances wants this trial televised. Part of the reason he says is, you know, hey, there's the rule. Federal trials are not televised. Which, okay, that's why she actually did the motion though. And then he says it could intimidate potential witnesses to not testify or to change their testimony. And that's true. I mean, that actually is a very real concern. It's one thing if these individuals are testifying, you know, behind closed doors, granted the media would pick up on it 'cause they'd still be allowed in the trial. Just have to report on it afterwards. So whatever these people tell would still become public knowledge and the MAGA freaks would still want to go after these individuals. So the threat of these people, you know, testifying and drawing the ire of MAGA doesn't actually change. So I will say, I don't buy into his argument. I don't think it's going to intimidate anybody into either changing their testimony or request to not give testimony Because it's all gonna come out in the end anyway. So why not put the whole thing on tv? I am a hundred percent in, in favor of that. I think that is what needs to happen. I think given the scope of this case, the impact, the historical significance of it, it has to be televised a hundred percent. And, you know, whatever issues arise from that, we will address when they arise. But let's not go ahead and start creating problems where they do not currently exist. This trial is too important for the public to not have access to see every single thing that is happening. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZphFwRfoMms
