5:12Now PlayingDonald Trump isn’t the only one suffering from paranoid delusions – apparently his allies are also descending into complete madness. It began with reports this week that said Trump’s campaign is considering firing his campaign managers, which then led conservative talker Dan Bongino to issue what some are calling a threat against Kellyanne Conway. The whole situation is beyond insane, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

Apparently it's not just Donald Trump. That might be, might be suffering from paranoid delusions. I mean, granted, we did see him this week at one of his rallies accused, just a random man in the audience of being a spy for the Harris campaign. So clearly paranoid delusions have taken over Donald Trump himself. But what about his allies, right? I mean, these people obviously aren't eating one another alive, right? Well, nope. They totally are. And in fact, they're doing it in uh, ways that a lot of people think are just absolute threats against one another. Here's what happened this week. Of course, we had lots of reports come out that one Donald Trump is screaming at his staff behind the scenes. Two, that there is some kind of discontent with the campaign managers, Chris Las Cavita and Susie Wiles, and that he wants to fire them, which maybe some truth to that seeing is how he's bringing in a bunch of his old people who also failed him, but whatever.
And then of course, the big one that Donald Trump is fuming behind the scenes about picking JD Vance. Now, we don't know who told these stories to the media. Of course it's unnamed sources, but sources within the Trump campaign. Nevertheless, and a lot of people seem to think that it's Kellyann Conway, which I'm gonna be honest, makes the most sense. She has a history of this kind of thing. But Dan Bonino this week, right wing talking head went even further than that and actually accused Conway and possibly other people of intentionally trying to sabotage the Trump campaign. He says they're not just out there leaking stories, they're leaking stories to destroy the campaign. So, so the very people working for Trump, obviously their jobs depend on him getting reelected are also according to Bonino, trying to make sure he doesn't get elected, which I guess in the mind of a conservative makes total sense even though the rest of us think that that is completely backwards.
Crazy. But here's what Bonino said during his podcast this week. There's a lot of internal sabotage going on right now that I honestly did not wanna highlight because I like to stay focused on the Democrats. And I was hoping it would go that way. Uh, it would go away. It's not, I suspect strongly this was a leak from people who wanted another candidate for vice president. Some of the other candidates were very interested in a more muscular posture in Ukraine where there was a lot of money to be made for a lot of people. JD Vance is interested in a more cautious approach to Ukraine instead of just shutting up and trying to win. Now with this great ticket, there are people out there sabotaging the ticket right? Now, I'm going to say to Kellyann and others, it's time to pipe down. You've been warned I've had about enough. He says, what are you gonna do? Right? I mean, that's a fair
Question for Dan Bonino. I can't ask it on Twitter 'cause he blocked me for some reason years ago, even though we never interacted. 'cause he is a coward and a puss. But what are you gonna do? Right, Dan? I think the public, and I think honestly, Kellyann Conway deserves an answer to that question. You've been warned I've had about enough. So what are you gonna do, Mr. Tough Guy? You gonna go fight Kellyanne Conway? You gonna threaten her? I mean, that's a threat. You've been warned. That's a threat. And honestly, even a lot of people on the left looked at this were completely disgusted, by the way. So did a lot of people on the right. There were multiple stories about Republicans coming out and saying, this is unacceptable. So Dan, everybody wants to know what are you gonna do? You've had enough. So what are you gonna do to Kellyann Conway?
