In a new video report, Ben Meiselas breaks down Donald Trump’s disastrous interview with Sean Hannity, his first since becoming President again on Monday. Amidst a series of incoherent rambling statements, Trump said he didn’t care about the economy, suggested he would shut down FEMA, and veered into bizarre topics like homeless people living in “half pipes” and the endangered delta smelt fish.

Trump also bragged about collaborating on a song with January 6th insurrectionists, referring to them as patriots and hostages, while downplaying their violent actions and pardoning them—even leaving Hannity confused. On the campaign trail, Trump played the January 6th choir anthem instead of the U.S. national anthem, a move we called treasonous here at MeidasTouch, but an act that the corporate media largely ignored.
Trump also falsely claimed he won the youth vote, and mocked California’s environmental policies, all while threatening to cut federal aid to states like California unless they met his demands, despite California providing massive amounts of funding for public services in pro-Trump red states. Meiselas underscores Trump’s dementia-like symptoms, and lambasts his continued lies and divisive rhetoric. We won’t kiss Trump’s ring like legacy media.
