A Democratic strategist was floored on Sunday after hearing a former Make America Great Again podcaster's blistering rebuke of President Donald Trump.
Tim Dillon, a popular comedian who boosted Trump on his podcast during the 2024 general election, claimed during a recent episode of his podcast that Trump's schtick is "not cute anymore" as Americans struggle to afford basic necessities and the Trump administration "sells the government for parts."
Mike Nellis, a Democratic strategist, seemed taken aback by Dillon's comments because they reflect the growing frustration among some Republicans.
"The problem is that a carnival barker now is President of the United States at maybe the worst possible time that we could tolerate a president like this because he has decimated the global economy across the world, but certainly here at home and the economy was already not great for a lot of people because wage growth has been depressed because of the inflationary crisis, because of the job market with AI and robotics," Nellis said.
"And we need a president that has a forward-looking vision for how to deal with the dramatic changes that are occurring in our economy right now," he added. "We need a president that's willing to take on the billionaire class of people who are stripping us of our dignity and making it harder for you to be able to pay your bills, take care of your family, take a vacation, have a hobby, stuff like that. It's disgusting, but he was entertaining."
Dillon has recently criticized Trump for "betraying MAGA" by waging war in Iran. The war has dramatically increased global energy prices, which have been a leading cause of stubborn inflation in grocery prices and other goods.
A MAGA senator is the target of ridicule after he made an odd demand to see an embattled candidate's lewd texts.
Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) went on Fox News to talk about Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner (D). Platner was in hot water ahead of the primaries after reporting by the Wall Street Journal and New York Times revealed he had been sending lewd messages to women while he was married.
"I wanna see those text messages," Kennedy demanded. "The sexting."
The odd request prompted cringes as people mocked him.
"Old perv," wrote Ron Filipkowski, the editor-in-chief of Meidas Touch. "I bet he does," agreed Democratic strategist Leslie Marshall.
"I bet you do," writer and media consultant Rex Bossert wrote. "But not the Epstein files?"
Others similarly called Kennedy out for his apparent hypocrisy.
"But not the Epstein files," noted writer and podcaster Hemant Mehta.
"Let's see those Trump Epstein files," wrote journalist Bill Huffman. "It's embarrassing how stupid they are. I hate them and they should all lose their jobs asap."
