Transcript of Trump Returns From Texas to Political Setbacks as Talarico Draws Crowds

Donald Trump got a rude awakening as he left Texas and headed back to Washington, DC. It turned out that the Democratic candidate for that United States Senate seat in Texas drew a bigger and much more enthusiastic crowd than Donald Trump did. But as Donald Trump was getting aboard Qatari Air Force One, he ranted and raved like a lunatic about how we're making progress with the deal between Russia and Ukraine. I promise you, it's really gonna happen this time. And this was reposted by RT. Here, play this.

And I think with Russia, we're making a lot of progress with Russia, Ukraine. There'll be a meeting set up very soon. And I think a lot of progress is being made. A meeting with who, sir? President Putin and President Putin. And I think a lot of progress.

And then Donald Trump said, look, if Flávio Bolsonaro, the loser candidate for president of Brazil, wants to come to the United States, I'd be for it. Donald Trump said, I liked his dad. I think that whole election in Brazil was very unfair. It was a very terrible thing. That's what this Trump MAGA do about everything. They just whine about election. Here, let me show you what he says here. Play this clip.

Would you approve of Flávio Bolsonaro coming to the United States? What is that about? Well, I would approve. I think he's a nice people. I think his election was very strange. And I thought it was terrible. Just terrible. Look at what happened to their democracy. Would I approve of him coming?

That's what they do. Now, talking about what else they're doing right now, the Trump regime is posting Lego videos all throughout the night. Make America Great Again, new video premiered at 8:30 PM, 8:30 PM only on Trump TV. They're doing the Trump version of the Iranian Lego videos. I mean, they literally need to steal everything. By the way, the Netanyahu regime started stealing the Iranian Lego video motif. And then Donald Trump is doing it all throughout the night as well. And it's like, what are you doing? You have record gas and diesel prices right now. You have this never-ending catastrophic war in Iran, which now the Trump regime has leaked out to all of the Gulf countries that they're about to escalate again. And Trump says, don't worry, it's just going to be a short burst where we destroy Iran and make them submit. And like, with all of this going on, they're covering up the Epstein files. Like, you're doing the Lego videos right now. Really? Like, do you realize you're plagiarizing Iran's Lego videos? It's so utterly pathetic. And they're posting these like weird cartoon AI slot memes. This is from the White House account.

Not in the United States of America. Bullseye. And it is a weird cartoon of the ambassador to the UN from the United States. Walls, like yelling at the Cuban ambassador. And this is what they have in this weird AI slop cartoon. He's not going to intimidate me in the United States of America like he tries to intimidate political prisoners. Dude, what are you talking about? I mean, the Trump regime has this devastating blockade around Cuba that's attacking the Cuban people right now. Mike Walds, I did a video on this yesterday, looked like an utter maniac attacking the Cuban ambassador. and said, I'm America. Do you know what that means? I'm America. And the Cuban ambassador's like, what the hell are you talking about? And then the ambassador to the United Nations from China gave that speech and basically said the United States is out of control and is, you know, behaving like this rogue hegemon. Remember I showed you that video? Meanwhile, you have CENTCOM posting this throughout the evening. Claim the Navy commander for Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps recently claimed that US forces have abandoned the Strait of Hormuz by moving hundreds of, quote, kilometers away.

This is false, CENTCOM says. Okay, fact: US forces deployed to the Middle East remain present and vigilant in the Strait of Hormuz and surrounding waters, as demonstrated by the CENTCOM commander this weekend. US forces and regional partners control the international waterway. Clearly not Iran. No, the aircraft carriers and the destroyers are not in the Strait of Hormuz. You know, there's satellite footage. We can see which ships are in the Strait of Hormuz. The photo that you're talking about from this weekend is Admiral Brad Cooper on a helicopter looking down at the Strait of Hormuz. That's not tankers in the Strait of Hormuz belonging to the United States or aircraft carriers or Navy destroyers. And also, the people know what we're paying for gas. I don't understand These demented lies. There are multiple aircraft carriers that are in the Arabian Sea over 1,000 kilometers away. That's just an undisputed fact. So when you're lying and saying what, the aircraft carriers and the, what, Navy destroyers are in the Strait of Hormuz, they're absolutely not. And then why would the risk premium be so expensive to take a very large crude carrier out of the Strait of Hormuz where it's now $1.5 million a day, which in and of itself adds $33 per barrel for the oil that's in— that's coming out of the Strait of Hormuz because Iran keeps striking tankers.

It's just demented lie after demented lie. And then why would the White House account need to brag about this if everything is going great? If we're drill baby drill in the United States and all of this oil's coming out of the United States, then why post this? It's the most internally inconsistent, demented propaganda that there is. The White House account goes, the first shipment from the historic Venezuela oil deal arrives today in Corpus Christi, Texas. Pause. Didn't you say we were getting millions and millions of barrels before? But now the first shipment, thanks to President Trump's leadership. This oil will belong to America and will be refined at home, increasing domestic supply and lowering prices at the pump. That's also not the way diesel works. There is an international market for diesel. And when you bring this Uh, crude, when you bring this oil from Venezuela, which is viscous and sour, it is very expensive to refine. Also, there's issues with refining capacity right now. And so you're just speaking as though you don't expect people to understand the way oil works. But for the American people, here's what we all know. We know that the prices keep going up and that whatever this ship is from Corpus Christi, The fact that you're bragging about a ship, that shouldn't be a boast.

Like, we shouldn't have to be like, oh my gosh, are we gonna get our potash from Belarus? Oh my gosh, a ship from Russia is coming in with more diesel. Wow, there may be a ship of diesel from Venezuela. Before the catastrophic war, before the Trump regime, we didn't have to think about these things. And you know, it's what you have You know, the Democratic candidate, Scott Columbus, who's— seems like he may pull off that Senate race and beat Cindy Hyde-Smith, the MAGA Republican candidate. But you have like the MAGA Republican candidate in Mississippi. She's like, well, you know, I just think that we should switch proteins because, look, if the price of beef is getting so high, I think the best move is we just switch the type of— switch the type of protein. Like, what are these people talking about? Let me show you what it looked like, by the way, in Texas, where James Talarico drew a bigger crowd In the same city that Donald Trump spoke at. Here, play this clip. And then you had to have the MAGA Republican governor of Texas, Governor Abbott. He's like, like my opponent, Gina Hinojosa, like she likes, she likes Sharia.

This is— she likes Sharia law. She, she supports Sharia law. That's what you got after you, Abbott, let in all of the data centers, let Elon Musk basically run over Texas by donating to your campaign. And in return, he seems to be getting billions of dollars in tax breaks. And you've turned Texas into the data center haven. This is what you're saying? Sharia law? Here, play this clip.

We must not allow a candidate like my opponent who supports Sharia law to ever have control over the levers of government in the state of Texas.

And then it gets even more embarrassing. I mean, talk about the cult. You have Katie Zakaria is back, the Trump press secretary who lasted approximately 5 days, a quarter of a Scaramucci. She said, I would, I would work for Donald Trump again if he asked. If Trump asked me, be the press secretary. No one's asking you. I don't know. Go away. Stop these losers. Stop this loser tour. Go away. Here, play this clip. Next for you.

Well, I don't know if I'd say I want the old job back, though. If the president asked, as he did before, I would take it, Rob. But I would take a job working with the president. And I think what I can say is there is a lot of exciting things ahead, and I will always be an advocate for what he's doing. He saved this country not once but twice. And I think it feels like—

You've got something, huh? You've got something lined up. Okay. It's safe to say that a lot of people say, oh, big announcement coming, and then we wait. 6 months and nothing happens. It feels like there's something with you. Is that fair?

That's fair. Okay.

Speaking about the loser tour, then you had U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz. He went on state regime media Fox, and Waltz is like, so I held up, I held up this photo right here, and I really showed the Cuban ambassador who was boss. It was like, no, you didn't. You looked like a maniac in the United Nations yesterday where you were holding up these posters and saying, you see Fidel Castro, he wore a Rolex. And the, and the new, the new leader of Cuba, he wears a Rolex. And, and the Castro family, they've got big homes on the coast of Cuba. And it's like, Mike Waltz, you work for a mafia regime of oligarchs in the Trump regime that does the inside securities trading every damn day. Manipulating the market, making golden ballrooms. What world do you think you have moral clarity to speak about anything? You invited a reporter from The Atlantic accidentally onto a Signal chat where you lost a war to the Houthis. You pretended that you won, and then you proceeded to brag about the military-industrial complex lining the pockets of the oligarchs. Here, play this clip.

We're going to counter it with hard truths. And Sean, here's what they're so upset about. Here's a couple of things, right? I'm holding up here a sign that shows, and this is what I was holding up today that had the Cuban regime having a meltdown. This is the Castro private island. The entire island is sitting in blackouts and in poverty and misery, but the Castro regime, the elites, they've got a pool, they have mansions, they have A yacht.

They have a helicopter pad. Here's the current president of Cuba, the president right now today with his Rolex on. You know, and I could keep going. Here's the grandson of Castro sitting on his yacht. The entire island doesn't have any fuel. You know how much it takes to fill up this yacht? The grandson of Fidel Castro. I could go on and on.

Then you've got, uh, just show you what Talarico said in his speech again, where there were thousands and thousands of people in a fairly Trumpy area in Texas too, I might add. Here, play this clip.

I know that we're not the only show in town tonight, and I appreciate all 4,000 of you that showed up here this evening. That's, that's a lot of Talaricos in one room. So thank y'all. for bearing with us as we changed venues to make room for all the Texans who want to join this movement. Tonight, Lubbock showed up for change. What we're seeing in West Texas is what we're seeing all over this state. Texans are ready for change. Change that will roll back these corrupt tariffs that are raising grocery prices. Change that will end this corrupt war in the Middle East driving up gas prices. We are done with the extremism and the corruption. We're done with the politics of division, and we are ready for something new. We are welcoming everybody— Democrats, Republicans, and independents alike— into this movement to take back power for working people. We We are on our Clear Eyes, Full Hearts tour. At this time of year in Texas, there is no better place to be than a high school football game.

You know, what would you rather hear, that or Donald Trump saying, you know, what do you think about men? You know, I like to look at men, I like to look at their asses. And that's what he was saying in the various Texas speeches. Here, play this clip.

I never really looked at him because it's never been my thing to look at men. But I like men, but I've never been particularly attracted. Sorry.

And then he's such a fine man, such an attractive man. Here, play this clip over here.

I called John up and again, John Gruden is just— in fact, he said something that was amazing because he's such a fine man. John, you said, is a senator, but he's running for reelection against a real sleazebag,

Meanwhile, you have again Flavio Bolsonaro. It was unclear if he's officially in the United States yet, but I think he'll be there today. He was in Argentina yesterday. He's obviously being given permission to go to the United States. He'll probably live right by Mar-a-Lago, maybe somewhere between Mar-a-Lago and where Epstein's home was in Palm Beach, probably somewhere around Probably somewhere around there. I'll, I'll read for you what Brazil's President Lula had to say yesterday. He goes, so I'm just finding out now— this is when he found out— that my opponent Flávio Bolsonaro left the country. I lost elections to Ferdinand Henrique Cardoso twice and I stayed in Brazil. He says, Alckmin lost to me and stayed in Brazil. This guy's running. This guy is fleeing. This guy is running away right now. I mean, how utterly pathetic can you be? And then I'll leave you with this right over here, that a federal judge in California, Judge Carter, who's overseeing the Trump lawsuits to, uh, where the Trump regime is claiming that there's like 20,000 people who are like ineligible to vote, who are unlawfully voting. Judge Carter says, look, if you believe that there are suspicious people who are illegally registered, Prosecute them, charge them, get busy.

If that's what you think, get busy and bring 'em to my court. Show me all of these unregistered. You are the DOJ. Show me the people. Can't just make it up. Show me the people who are committing the crimes. That's what you're supposed to do. And then, uh, Judge Carter said, uh, he said the following at the end of the hearing. He said, the court believes it would be wise that any threats by the Trump DOJ to this state and this county's elected employees cease immediately. Good night. And sent out the Trump regime DOJ lawyers. And by the way, that Trump DOJ United States Attorney who then claimed to be the first Assistant United States Attorney, Saleh, he got disqualified by a federal judge in a separate case for being an unlawful United States Attorney and then calling himself the first Assistant Attorney while actually doing the job of the United States We'll keep you posted every step of the way.
