Episode 753: What a Week!
This week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump is celebrating the fact that Judge Aileen Cannon completely bastardized the justice system this week, and part of his celebration included an absolutely unhinged post on Truth Social. The former President praised the judge and then called for all cases against him to be dismissed in a show of "unity" for the nation, and then he launched a completely fact-free attack on the Democrats (right after calling for unity.) Buried deep in a story from Axios this week is a statement from a "senior House Democrat" who told the outlet that Democrats have already "resigned themselves" to a second term of Donald Trump in The White House. This is a shocking statement, and it deserved far more coverage than Axios gave it. This means that Democrats are either giving up the fight before it even begins, or that they believe there is no way to beat Teflon Don. Donald Trump's campaign is not wasting any time using the imagery of Saturday's shooting in their campaign fundraising pitches, which is what everyone knew would happen. On Monday, the campaign sent out an email that featured the photo of a bloody Trump raising his fist after being shot at on Saturday, with the email saying "FEAR NOT!" followed by a stream of statements depicting Trump as some sort of hero. Donald Trump has repeatedly trashed electric vehicles and has promised to return America to gasoline cars if he returns to office. In spite of those promises, Elon Musk has decided to pledge $45 million per month to a Trump-supporting Super PAC, even though Musk owns the largest all-electric car companies in the country. He'll likely end up regretting this decision in the long run. All that, and more, on this week's Ring of Fire Podcast!
