Dump Term 2, Part 2: "A third term would be a big shattering."

Did you feel the hate as an American, or is there cognizance that many of us are fighting it tooth and nail?

If I saw a Russian here I wouldn't assume they were a Putinite. In fact, if they were here quite the opposite. The vast majority of Americans traveling in Europe, or anywhere overseas, want to see this regime thrown on the ash heap of history with all the other fascists.

In Ireland they had no issue with us...they just hate him. One drunk DudeBro said "MAGA" to be funny and i replied "not in my state pal" and he shut up.

They know the score. They pity us and know we are getting screwed by him especially on tariffs.

I didn’t feel any hate as American, and I’m beyond embarrassed. But I blend in quite well in Sweden and Denmark and I know how to not get flagged as American.

I have to think their Schadenfreude for Americans is real.

Yes. Our comeuppance will be cheered all over the world. We have been, even at our best, the stuck up arrogant Richie Rich asswipe of the planet, and everyone wants that kid to fall face first into a tackle box.
 
So there's video of ol' senile Joe Biden wandering around the roof of the White House briefing center without Secret Service protection and yelling at reporters. This will not go well toward the defense of his mental acuity.

*checks notes*

Oh, I'm sorry, that's live footage of Trump wandering around the roof without protection yelling at reporters. This will not go well toward the defense of Joe Biden's mental acuity.

Heard Dump on CNBC this morning, and seeing clips from Aaron Rupar confirms the exasperation I heard from all three Squawk Box hosts.

When Joe Kernen thinks its a bridge too far and tries to redirect the messaging... 😳

Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com)

KERNEN: The revision last year was in August. There was still plenty of time for voters to see those weren't real jobs. TRUMP: No. After the election in November. I believe it was in November. KERNEN: This was in August TRUMP: The numbers were rigged

Trump is the one being played by his own party. They are conning the con man. Half of America feel he can do no wrong while the people really in charge do their damage. It’s almost as if the republicans said to themselves “we need a guy in here that can do no wrong and everyone hates” and there he was. Trump doesn’t need a distraction. Trump IS the distraction.

Trump on undocumented farm workers: "People that live in the inner city are not doing that work. They've tried, we've tried, everybody tried. They don't do it. These people do it naturally. Naturally ... they don't get a bad back, because if they get a bad back, they die."

Wait - was that the actual response to a question specifically about undocumented farm workers?

"Mr. President what are your thoughts on the latest peace talks in the Middle East?"
"You know Obama faked his birth certificate right? Walking in the sun can be hard. I think Pete is doing a great job..."

You need to travel internationally more. I have rarely ever been given shit for being American, and when it has happened it was always a Brit, and even then it hasn't happened for a long time.

btw the whole "ugly American" as a tourist trope is overplayed as well. Collectively the most complaints I hear about travelers are lodged towards Russians, Chinese, and honestly Europeans who so often just look annoyed even when on vacation.

My opinion living there as American really changed when I lived in the UK.

Made me realize we aren’t always the biggest buffoons.
 
Living in a pretty touristy city in Germany, it's often the overwhelming number of Chinese tourists that's the most annoying. They're quiet but they are so indifferent to everyone else.

The stupid, loud Americans are annoying in another way in that they think they own the place and everyone should cater to them. Some Texan yelling across the market that "Gary needs to come look at the fountain" is just cringe.
 
All of the media can just go to hell. Now they're reporting on Trump lying (cause everything is a lie) about when he's going to announce the new BLS Chief (the one that announces the job numbers every month).

He fired the messenger. The messenger was just reporting data. The data is the data.

Just stop.
