00:00:00.000 The apologists for the establishment and what Trump's doing, they're going to say, you're contributing to this.
00:00:07.640 You're not being positive enough.
00:00:09.320 And I noticed the propaganda out of Truth Social and everywhere is just Trump is king.
00:00:13.160 Being king isn't so bad.
00:00:15.500 I could get used to this.
00:00:17.300 Trump is Jesus healing people.
00:00:19.420 I mean, like Kim Jong-un level stuff.
00:00:21.120 I remember like making fun of Kim Jong-un and Kim Jong-un because it'd be like, oh, when they come out, the sky parts and it's sunny and the birds tweet and angels fly around.
00:00:29.360 and people get healed of diseases.
00:00:31.320 State television showed images of grieving civilians
00:00:34.600 lining the streets, weeping and flailing their arms
00:00:38.040 as the funeral cortege of black Lincolns and Mercedes sedans
00:00:42.200 moved slowly down the wide avenues.
00:00:45.480 One of the myths surrounding Kim Jong-il
00:00:47.420 was that he could control the weather
00:00:49.080 and the temperatures on this day were unusually cold.
00:00:56.480 And for boomers, some boomers,
00:00:59.060 they like that but for everybody else it's like ah i mean i see north korea worship of kim jong-un
00:01:05.240 it makes my blood boil but i'm supposed to just sit there and go i love this it would be good to
00:01:11.120 have a king gee we ought to trump should be a king and your trump post post where it'd be good to have
00:01:16.460 him as a king you know holy this is better than winning the revolution long live the king amend
00:01:20.840 the constitution third term incoming daddy we won the 2028 election all liberals be banished from
00:01:25.380 united states get the out and in 2028 he ought to just stay you know and that's the thing to do
00:01:32.980 here and i'm just like and you're like well if you're not for that you're for the democrats
00:01:38.100 trump is doing all these things that are helping the democrats and and i was like
00:01:43.380 what's he doing a year ago does he know he's doing it now you know he's doing
00:01:55.380 And I liked Eagleman in the past, but that guy on X is nothing but pure North Korean. 0.64
00:02:14.180 I mean, it's like if North Korea was running Trump's propaganda. 0.63
00:02:16.600 man doesn't king trump have a great sound to it posting long live the king the white house then
00:02:31.200 posting this illustration resembling a time magazine cover with the president actually
00:02:35.900 wearing a crown help me long live the king
00:02:44.200 and i'm like uh you're a 1776 bro no that doesn't sound good to me and i'm exposing it hopefully 0.55
00:02:56.940 he'll stop but i'm the traitor right i'm the commie i'm the qatari agent yeah i'm the easter
00:03:02.340 bunny and a Chinese jet pilot from the moon or Mars all wrapped into one real time uncensored
00:03:09.140 unstoppable alexjoneslive.com take a stand share the link do you want to fight you better believe
00:03:19.940 you got one right now I want to address the change in President Trump and when I am critical
00:03:29.000 of Trump, you see a lot of the apologists for Trump who are a minority of MAGA now,
00:03:34.300 as the poll numbers in fact show, many of which are on the payroll of Trump and Israeli and other
00:03:39.900 subsidiaries, claiming we're Democrat Party operatives and claiming that we are trying to
00:03:48.520 lose the midterms when it has been Trump's behavior and statements and actions that all
00:03:55.060 pollsters, including Trump supporter pollsters, have been pointing out. Now, Trump has given
00:04:04.300 interviews to multiple publications, and he's not denied this, where he said, I want to be
00:04:10.220 remembered like Hitler and Stalin and Genghis Khan, those are statements, for being powerful
00:04:17.800 and being a ruler and then i have seen posted on true social hundreds of posts where he is a king
00:04:27.420 and he is an emperor and then they have their allied influencers constantly saying isn't this
00:04:31.980 a great idea he should run again in 2028 and he should be a king well even if he was super popular
00:04:37.800 doing what he was supposed to and somehow could magically finagle that and get around
00:04:41.480 the constitutional amendment i would say that that that's dangerous plus he'll be 84 years old
00:04:49.220 but with all the things he's been doing and how he's going sideways and statements about i want 0.82
00:04:55.260 to be remembered like genghis khan who was an absolute mass murdering tyrant
00:05:01.040 and covering up the epstein stuff and launching the iran war and just all of this
00:05:07.760 he wouldn't win another election i don't think against gavin newsom we need somebody that can
00:05:15.400 beat him and i don't think any rational person who has any brain cells could disagree with me
00:05:21.260 maybe you do let's open the phones up for people that agree disagree i don't sense your calls
00:05:27.100 just have a clear phone line but yeah uh trump wants to join the list of bloodthirsty dictators
00:05:33.920 he calls great men in multiple bizarre interviews in the last two months.
00:05:40.620 And I have the interviews with The Hill, interviews with The New York Times,
00:05:46.320 interviews with TV people.
00:05:49.440 I mean, it's like, what are these statements?
00:05:51.640 Statements like, Mr. President, do you care about the average American's economic plight?
00:05:56.960 No, I don't care about any American's economic problems.
00:06:00.040 All I care about is war.
00:06:03.920 comparisons to Hitler, Mao, Stalin, Trump. Sounds good to me. You'd say, well,
00:06:09.040 he's just being sarcastic. No, gold statues everywhere, asking people to come bless the
00:06:14.000 gold statues, both rabbis and Christians. I mean, when North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un
00:06:21.520 acts like this, we go, this is disgusting. And I think at 80 years old, he's still high 0.72
00:06:27.720 functioning, but I believe he's beginning to have frontal lobe dementia. That's where you
00:06:32.720 have most of your faculties and you sound like you're together, but you have bad decision making
00:06:37.700 and you tend to get petulant. You tend to get imperious. You tend to get, which means imperial
00:06:43.620 behaving. That's one of the things in the psychological medical neurology manual,
00:06:49.920 not even the psychology manual. If you can look up in the neurology, that's a real doctor,
00:06:55.480 not some psychologist quack. It says frontal lobe dementia, imperious, arrogant, erratic,
00:07:09.980 childlike, petulant, angry. And you look at Trump and used to, there was some of that, 0.97
00:07:18.600 so it was cute. And he was going up against bad people, but now it's public and from behind the
00:07:24.620 scenes since he's been back in the last year and a half, he is exploding on people. And he's even
00:07:29.240 admitted, oh, my voice is hoarse. I just screamed at a bunch of people. Who deserved it? So that's
00:07:35.620 why everybody grobbles and kisses his ass in those public cabinet meetings. Just, sir, you're the 1.00
00:07:39.260 best. You're the most incredible person ever. And it's like, wait, where have I seen this? I've seen
00:07:43.700 this with Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un. I mean, I've been on here 32 years covering those guys.
00:07:50.420 Everybody knows about Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un, his son.
00:07:53.640 And I was sitting there in the last week watching this ad,
00:07:55.660 and I was like, where have I seen this?
00:07:57.580 This seems very imperial, very arrogant.
00:08:00.060 Where have I seen this? 0.96
00:08:01.000 I go, oh, my God, North Korea.
00:08:02.780 And he loves Kim Jong-un.
00:08:04.240 And he says, boy, he knows how to run things.
00:08:06.460 Man, this is great.
00:08:08.100 And he's been to North Korea.
00:08:09.860 And, man, I like it.
00:08:11.680 They know how to get stuff done.
00:08:13.560 And people go, oh, that's a joke.
00:08:15.320 No, it's not a joke.
00:08:16.340 so i talked about this yesterday and dan one of our great researchers threw this out quickly
00:08:25.580 i can't think of a proper headline it's so powerful but we'll put it on x here in the
00:08:31.320 next 30 minutes or so and while i watch it again because he just got it done before the show
00:08:36.380 only seen it once i'll try to think of something that properly comes to this level of trump
00:08:42.780 publicly embraces monarchy,
00:08:50.460 says that he would like to be a king,
00:08:52.440 army of surrogates promote King Trump, 0.59
00:08:55.580 propaganda eerily similar to North Korean 0.65
00:08:59.120 worship, 0.76
00:09:04.340 propaganda, imagery eerily mirrors
00:09:11.460 the worship of dictators in north korea which is state packaged
00:09:19.800 i mean no one can look at this and not say it's a bizarre attempted seduction
00:09:31.520 to get people into a trump is invincible trump is jesus trump can save the world trump is superman
00:09:39.700 trump is king and i see it pushed by all the influencers that are apologists and and i'm i
00:09:50.860 look at the comments and it's revolting to 80 percent of people and i'm like why are you doing
00:09:56.120 this because trump likes it and so they can get invited to the white house you know every six
00:10:01.440 months and he comes in and pats them on the head he'll have like 20 or 30 a minute private things
00:10:05.980 and he comes and pats them on the head i've been invited to those things and i talked to the aid
00:10:11.440 i'm like let me guess when he says at dinner he's gonna give us hamburgers and 30 or 40 of us will
00:10:16.700 be in a side room and he'll come in and talk to us five minutes uh yeah that's what's gonna happen
00:10:20.360 i'm like i don't want to go to that and then everybody gets in their suit and all feels like
00:10:25.380 they've made it and oh i go through and get checked with secret service and i go in and oh he comes
00:10:29.120 out and we eat we eat mcdonald's and and and then i mean he literally that's his currency i've already
00:10:34.040 had that okay i've had way more than that from trump and the first time he was doing it first
00:10:41.100 time he really laid it on me was the day after he won the election he called me and i'm just sitting
00:10:45.480 there being worshipped and told i'm the greatest person to slice bread i'm like oh sir the people
00:10:50.740 you're bringing in the cabinet their sorrows i was alex no way about that and i'm just like
00:10:54.880 i'm like sir i'm like i go please get serious you're very important i need you to succeed
00:11:00.240 these people want to destroy you do you understand you're being spied on by the cia i have the proved
00:11:04.540 and he's like okay hold on a minute he comes back real serious he goes okay tell me all right can
00:11:10.240 you uh get that to me all right i'm gonna hand you okay okay i'm listening all right but it was
00:11:15.420 like he totally shifted like oh god you're so great hold on a minute anyone comes back 10 seconds
00:11:20.500 later all right alex tell me but it was like a total different person and the other times i
00:11:26.440 talk to them like can we stop with the how great i am for a little bit here i don't want that that
00:11:30.860 doesn't make me feel good i want to win against the enemy and you're our best shot at it so can
00:11:35.700 i please tell you who your enemies are in your administration and then you saw all hell break
00:11:39.600 loose and those people later went i got fired because they went on 60 minutes fiona hill and 0.92
00:11:43.880 all of them and they turned the cia loose on my ass so bad so my point is i was loyal to the 0.96
00:11:49.860 mission trump got elected to do and he really tried it in his first administration and was a 0.99
00:11:53.900 hero. And he was a hero coming back from all he went through, and it made me absolutely love Trump,
00:12:00.280 despite some of the stuff that I found to be a little bit sicky, saccharine-y, just not my style.
00:12:08.720 Okay. But now all the new stuff, and it's not working, and it's backfiring,
00:12:15.240 is very serious. And all of his merch companies have collapsed. No one can sell any of it.
00:12:22.160 when he does have a rally you look there might be one table selling shirts hardly anybody's
00:12:27.080 getting them this is bad and we sell Trump merch and it sold really great during the election and
00:12:34.520 when he won and as soon as he went sideways it went down to very low and now we sell almost
00:12:40.560 zero Trump merch at the Alex's store.com so I don't need to read the newspaper articles
00:12:45.400 and read the polls and read about them all going out of business I got a bunch of new examples today
00:12:50.140 i know because we run a trump merch operation okay and the listeners track exactly with me
00:12:58.820 not because they're even listening to what i tell them they tune in here because they already agree
00:13:03.140 with what i'm saying maybe they get some new info i get some info from guests but people aren't
00:13:07.060 mainly tuning in here because i have all the answers i'm saying the same stuff they think
00:13:11.460 they go yeah this guy knows what he's talking about so i'm not happy about this man the democrats
00:13:16.820 are absolute demons but i'm not going to sit here and lie to you about the fact that trump 0.97
00:13:24.300 has absolutely screwed the pooch and you don't even need me to tell you that look at this inside
00:13:28.080 the collapse of maga's marketplace backed by trump jr here's one of the latest articles wall street 0.95
00:13:33.180 journal today alarm bells for jd vance is devastating new polls has democrat who swears
00:13:39.680 he's not running crushing him national poll democrats lead congressional ballot by eight
00:13:46.060 points rubio outperforms vance 2028 ballot not good news say whatever you want about vance he's 0.99
00:13:51.340 on a neocon and it goes on and on we have all these stupid scandals is he banging the aid who 0.95
00:13:57.140 cares he's never said he was you know he was a choir boy i i care about the inflation and the 0.97
00:14:02.940 wars and you know all the rest of that so so here's an important piece that we'll post on x
00:14:11.220 it on rumble soon and i don't know what headline you give it it's just trump publicly declares that
00:14:17.720 he would that he wants to be the king sends out army of influencers to promote the idea
00:14:23.820 of him running again in 2028 most shocking of all the propaganda being posted by the
00:14:30.760 president on true social mirrors north korean dictatorship worship put out 0.80
00:14:38.520 by the communist hellhole. 0.71
00:14:44.840 I don't, and he loves Kim Jong-un,
00:14:48.780 who's threatened to nuke Israel if they nuke Iran
00:14:52.640 and are threatening to nuke us all the time.
00:14:55.880 And, oh, Kim's so great. 1.00
00:14:57.020 And I know his idea is kiss his ass. 1.00
00:14:58.660 That makes him come to the table. 1.00
00:15:00.940 The point is they got a bunch of nukes
00:15:03.060 and are threatening to nuke us.
00:15:04.460 Iran denies it and saying, it's just like, it's crazy.
00:15:08.180 It's crazy.
00:15:09.400 But he said, I like him.
00:15:11.000 I like it.
00:15:11.520 Oh, he's got a lot of style.
00:15:12.940 Oh, this is great over here.
00:15:14.540 Boy, they really have great rallies here in North Korea.
00:15:16.720 Yeah, because they'll get shot if they don't.
00:15:18.760 A lot of enthusiasm when a gun's in your head.
00:15:22.020 So here's this powerful little short piece.
00:15:24.440 And I encourage others to make your own pieces because Trump's already undermined himself
00:15:28.420 plenty.
00:15:29.200 I have a job to just not be worshipful, not be a sycophant, and to try to get the White
00:15:35.900 house to course correct because we got two more years and two months of trump two years and 70
00:15:41.880 seven days or whatever and hopefully he's not as arrogant after you know we see what happens
00:15:50.860 in the midterms which i hope isn't what i think is going to happen which the numbers show
00:15:54.600 and added with the election fraud that trump's been unable to curtail he has tried some good
00:16:00.380 job there i i think it's i think they lose the senate to him this is bad this is bad and
00:16:07.720 well just here's here's the shocking piece the uh apologists for the establishment and what
00:16:18.380 trump's doing they're going to say you're contributing to this you're not being positive
00:16:24.420 enough and i noticed the propaganda out of truth social everywhere it's just trump is king being
00:16:28.820 King isn't so bad. I could get used to this. Trump is Jesus healing people. I mean, like Kim Jong-un
00:16:36.120 level stuff. I remember like making fun of Kim Jong-un and Kim Jong-un because it'd be like,
00:16:39.960 oh, when they come out, the sky parts and it's sunny and the birds tweet and angels fly around
00:16:44.800 and people get healed of diseases. State television showed images of grieving civilians
00:16:50.040 lining the streets, weeping and flailing their arms as the funeral cortege of black Lincolns
00:16:56.520 and mercedes sedans moved slowly down the wide avenues one of the myths surrounding kim jong-il

00:17:17.340 i mean i see north korea worship of kim jong-un it makes my blood boil but i'm supposed to just
00:17:24.460 sit there and go i love this it would be good to have a king gee we ought to trump should be a king
00:17:29.900 and trump post post where it'd be good to have him as a king you know holy this is better than
00:17:34.040 winning the revolution long live the king amend the constitution third term incoming daddy we won
00:17:38.660 the 2028 election all liberals be banished from the united states get the out and in 2028 he
00:17:45.140 ought to just stay you know and that's the thing to do here and i'm just like and you're like well
00:17:50.340 if you're not for that, you're for the Democrats. Trump is doing all these things that are helping
00:17:57.320 the Democrats. And I was like, what's he doing a year ago? Does he know he's doing it? Now,
00:18:01.440 you know, he's doing.
00:18:20.340 and uh and i liked eagleman in the past but that guy on x is nothing but pure north korean
00:18:28.980 i mean it's like if north korea was running trump's propaganda
00:18:32.100 man doesn't king trump have a great sound to it posting long live the king the white house then
00:18:46.640 posting this illustration resembling a Time magazine cover
00:18:50.240 with the president actually wearing a crown.
00:18:52.660 Help me.
00:18:57.080 Long live the king.
00:19:05.220 And I'm like, you're a 1776, bro?
00:19:08.720 No, that doesn't sound good to me. 0.97
00:19:10.560 And I'm exposing it.
00:19:12.060 Hopefully he'll stop.
00:19:13.620 But I'm the traitor, right?
00:19:14.800 I'm the commie. 0.94
