Trump News

A CNN conservative expressed confidence that Donald Trump's advisers would keep him from potentially wrecking the economy.

The former president has become even more enamored of tariffs, which he claims would cure the nation's economic problems – although virtually no mainstream economists agree – but CNN's Shermichael Singleton insisted that would be talked out of imposing policies that many studies show would reignite inflation.

Former President Donald Trump claimed to have "shocking breaking news" to reveal on his Truth Social platform -- but it turned out to be just another pile of misinformation.

Writing on the platform, the former president claimed that "as exposed by the Great John Solomon, a REAL Journalist who cares about the TRUTH, and the GREAT work of Congressman Barry Loudermilk and Republicans on the House Oversight Committee, the Deep State chose to disregard my direct authorization of at least 10,000 National Guard Troops to ensure that Washington, D.C., was safe and secure on January 6, 2021. These Deep State subversives disobeyed the President’s directives, which would have prevented any unrest that day - January 6th, as it is known, would never have taken place."

The New York Times has written numerous editorials making the case against electing former President Donald Trump to another term in office, but on Thursday the paper decided to let the words of former Trump officials and associates speak for themselves.

In all, the Times compiled 90 quotes from people who have spent time in Trump's orbit and they paint a picture of a man who is equal parts selfish and mentally unstable.

The ex-president and current Republican nominee mocked president Joe Biden for backing Ukraine, saying the embattled nation didn't stand a chance against Russia because the invaders were too militarily powerful.

"Biden says, ‘We will not leave until we win,’” Trump said Tuesday at a rally in Savannah, Georgia. “What happens if they win? That’s what they do, is they fight wars. As somebody told me the other day, they beat Hitler, they beat Napoleon. That’s what they do. They fight, and it’s not pleasant.”

On Thursday morning the entire panel on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" expressed dismay and disgust with Donald Trump over his attacks on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a speech on Wednesday.

Speaking in North Carolina where he was expected to explain his economic plans if re-elected — and then didn't — Trump stated that Ukraine should have bowed to Russia before the 2022 invasion and then added, "the worst deal would’ve been better than what we have now.”

After sharing clips of Trump rambling about the war in Ukraine and sniping at Zelenskyy ("He's making little, nasty aspersions toward your favorite president, me") who was visiting with lawmakers after a speech at the U.N., co-host Mika Brzezinski was first out of the gate by blurting "Wow."

"Thank you so much for your insights, Neville Chamberlain. Peace at all costs, peace in our times," co-host Joe Scarborough sneered at Trump.

"I got to to say, it's really hard to be shocked by Donald Trump's Republican party in 2024 and yet, we have, over the past several days, seen his crowds cheering for Vladimir Putin, seemingly booing Volodymyr Zelenskyy," he continued. "Donald Trump talking about how -- saying one positive thing after another positive thing about Vladimir Putin. Every time he speaks of Putin and constantly criticizing Zelenskyy, constantly criticizing Ukraine, constantly suggesting if he is president, he is going to end the war at once."

That led guest David Ignatius to interject, "It's not just surprising, it's shocking. Trump really is waving the white flag here. From the stuff we just saw, Ukraine is gone."

"What?" co-host Brzezinski gasped.

"He's ready to declare this war, he's ready to install a peace plan that would essentially be a Russian victory," Ignatius replied.
