Mentally Unwell Trump Keeps Stopping Meetings To Call His Friends

Donald Trump is causing major headaches for his staffers as they fear he is going to end up leaking highly sensitive information to people who definitely should not have it. The reason for the concern is that Trump apparently loves to call his non-government friends while in the middle of official meetings. This includes people like Rupert Murdoch and other high-profile right wingers. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg of what staffers revealed in recent interviews. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what happened.

So far in the, you know, five and a half months that Donald Trump has been back in office. Weird stories have, uh, basically been abundant. You don't have to go too far to find, uh, something. Wow. That's really off the walls, right? Well, this week we got another one of those very weird stories that may in fact have national security implications, because it turns out, according to multiple unnamed sources within the Trump administration who spoke to NBC News, Donald Trump loves to interrupt his official meetings and briefings by calling his friends and asking them what they think Trump should do. So let me, let me go ahead and explain who these people are. One of them is Dana White, you know, the Ultimate Fighting Championship, uh, uh, you know, guy that runs that. And another one of course is Rupert Murdoch. And according to one of the sources that spoke to NBC News, after Israel attacked Iran, but before the US did, Trump's going through the briefing. He's being told what's happening, and he says, let's call Rupert Fox's killing me today.

Right? That's what it says right here in the report. And then while on the phone with Rupert Murdoch, he asked him, Trump asked Rupert, what do you, what would you do? Like, what do you think I should do? Tell me if I should bomb another country. Rupert Murdoch, who, who doesn't have political experience, he is a propagandist and has been his entire adult life, was asked by the sitting president of the United States, what, what should I do? Back in April, there was a report from the Atlantic that talked about the fact that Donald Trump's own staffers are terrified that he's going to end up leaking classified information or falling victim to a scam because he loves to answer his phone. Doesn't matter who it is, doesn't matter if he doesn't know the number, doesn't matter if it says scam, likely he'll pick up that phone and answer it and talk to whoever is on the other line.

So his staffers were already living in fear that he was gonna leak classified information because he's a big dumb idiot who likes to tell people things. And now we have this report come out that effectively tells us that yes, Donald Trump is giving his friends that call him on the telephone information that basically the public doesn't have. And he's doing it during these meetings and keeping them on the phone as he makes the people keep giving him information. Nation, you know, this administration is obsessed with leakers, right? I mean, we've got polygraph tests being done across virtually every government department to find out who's leaking.

It's Trump, right? I mean, if you wanna find the leaker, you go to the Oval Office because that's where he is. He is the guy telling everybody everything. Honest to God, it wouldn't surprise me if some of these unnamed sources are Trump himself or he's telling people what to say. But listen to this, this is even scarier. Military leaders have also expressed concerned about spillage of potentially sensitive information. After Meta's, mark Zuckerberg strolled unannounced into a meeting about the Air Force's planned F 47 fighter, jet Zuckerberg, of course, is now a friend of Trump. So he, like, they're, they're having this military meeting, secret information, and Mark Zuckerberg just walks into the meeting, how somebody, how does that even happen? How was he even in the place where they were having the meeting? Like, why is that a thing? We are living in the dumbest timeline. Like that is all I can say to this because it makes my head want to explode to even think about what the F is happening here. But this is utter insanity, and it's just the dumbest thing I could ever imagine.
