Alex Jones thinks Trump's losing his mind.

0:02.5

Marjorie Taylor Green says that he's gone insane and everyone in his administration is complicit.

And after Trump praised Allah on Easter, tomorrow the runoff to fill Green's old Georgia seat is being called one of the first electoral tests on how voters are responding to the Iran war.

So when your biggest die-hard supporters and loyalists, they're calling you out, they're telling your staff to beg forgiveness from God, you obviously have a problem that goes way beyond the polls. And where we should start is with Trump's Easter pose in which he cursed out Iran and praised Allah, which prompted Alex Jones to go on a rant about the president's behavior. America's sinking global rankings of black ability. It's just, it's just not what we voted for. We've never seen rhetoric out of presidents like this when we go to war, even if you're for this war. This is really bad PR, folks. This is what I'm talking about, the way Trump's behaving, way more erratic. His speech is not coherent a lot of the time. You can't deny this is happening. Jones even acknowledged that while he often highlights what he sees as Trump's accomplishments, he doesn't fully back him on this. I'm trying to salvage something and before the midterms and just, you know, hope that we can get Trump to pull out of this war. So I'm trying to get as much public awakening to this as pressure as I can, but I don't have a lot of hope. And this actually, if you follow him, this is not the first time that Jones has questioned Trump's mental state. But when Alex Jones, like the man who built an empire on conspiracy theories and unflinching loyalty to Donald Trump is publicly saying that the president's behavior is erratic and incoherent, that's not a fringe critique anymore. And then there's MTG who went even harder. Green, who used to be one of Trump's most visible loyalists before distancing

herself and leaving Congress, posted yesterday, everyone in his administration that claims to be

1:31.7

a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshiping the

1:36.4

president and intervene in Trump's madness. I know all of you and him and he has gone insane and

1:41.4

all of you are complicit, saying this is not what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024. I know I was there more than most. This is not making America great again. This is evil. And so again, take a beat to fully drink in that this is Marjorie Taylor Green that we're talking about calling the president insane in his administration evil. And Green's words, they're also especially important right now because the runoff election

2:02.0

to fill her old Georgia seat, that's actually tomorrow. Or with The New York Times calling it one of the first electoral tests of how voters are responding to the Iran war. And there, as far as the candidates, you have Democrat Sean Harris, who's spoken against the war and focuses on how Trump's decisions have increased costs for Americans. And then you have Republican Clayton Fuller, who's a Trump loyalist defending the president

2:17.5

and using MAGA talking points to argue with the war is actually making the country safer. costs for Americans. And then you have Republican, Clayton Fuller, who's a Trump loyalist defending the president

2:17.5

and using MAGA talking points to argue with the war is actually making the country safer.

2:21.3

And while Green hasn't formally endorsed either candidate, CNN reports that she intends to vote Republican. And that's even though on Iran specifically, her position is more aligned with a Democratic candidate. Now, while I'll always implore Democrats and independents, especially just anyone that's not aligned with Trump, to go out and vote every single time because it matters. People should also understand that this is one of the reddest districts in Georgia. So a Democratic win there, it would be a massive upset. But also, that's not even fully the point. As the Times put it, a competitive performance by Mr. Harris on Tuesday, even in defeat, could offer another warning signal for the Republican Party. Even a closer than expected result, it would be a temperature check. If a deep red Georgia district had showed significant movement away from Trump on the war, that has a signal for every Republican heading into the midterms. And Fuller, right, the Republican, he acknowledged the stake saying that a Democratic win, it would be a tragedy for the MAGA movement and for President Trump. And of course, a big thing here is that this shifting sentiment, it's not exclusive to Georgia or on Alex Jones's show.

3:08.6

Or we're seeing poll after poll and reporting suggesting that Trump is losing the podcast Broke coalition over Iran. Actually, a recent conversation that got so much attention was Joe Rogan and Theo Vaughn last week. I'm confused. I can't believe we went to this war. When we started bombing Iran, I was like, this can't be true. And what about Lebanon now?

3:24.1

I know.

3:24.7

Israel's invaded Lebanon.

3:26.2

Yeah.

3:27.3

Yeah.
