Summary

Trump's latest meltdown hits new authoritarian lows—and the week is just getting started. On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, we break down the madness: Trump’s so-called “economic plan” includes rationing dolls for little girls, jacking up prices, and telling working families to “shut up.” He floated imaginary trade deals, demanded tariffs on Hollywood movies, posted a bizarre AI image of himself as the Pope, and called for reopening Alcatraz. Oh, and he partied with the Proud Boys at Mar-a-Lago, questioned if he has to uphold the Constitution, and proposed gutting 20% of four-star generals. Meanwhile, a huge pro-democracy win in Australia where the Labor Party crushed it—ALBOWS UP, mates. Buckle up—Ben, Brett and Jordy discuss it all.

0:30.2	Let them eat cake. Donald Trump's central planning department is now saying that little girls
0:36.0	should only get two dolls, not 35 dolls,
0:39.6	and only a couple of pencils, not 250 pencils. These are actual words that Donald Trump repeated
0:45.8	over and over again in the past 48 hours. Also, no deals Donald is saying, because he hasn't
0:52.2	been able to secure any deals as part of his disastrous trade war,
0:56.2	he may just start to make up his own deals in his mind and declare what the tariffs are going to be
1:03.2	for each country. Isn't that what you did already that got us into this mess in the first place?
1:08.9	Okay, Donald. Donald Trump also posted an AI image of himself
1:12.9	as a pope. He called for reopening Alcatraz. He called for tariffing movies produced overseas.
1:18.9	He hung out with the leader of the proud boys at Mar-a-Lago Enrique Tario. He says he doesn't know
1:23.2	if the Constitution applies to him. He doesn't think migrants should have trials. Oh, and they're
1:28.1	cutting, what, 20% of the four-star generals? Oh, and the week has just begun. Also,
1:34.4	albows up a big victory for the Labor Party in Australia, which is their left-leaning liberal
1:40.9	party there, the Trump-backed MAGA party over there, which is their liberal
1:45.4	party, their conservative right-wing parties called the Liberal Party, led by Peter Dutton,
1:50.2	had a humiliating defeat on Saturday. The Labor Party had a massive, massive victory, a huge
1:57.2	repudiation of Trump and MAGA because the Peter Dutton liberal candidate, which again
2:04.0	is their right wing party, was Timu Trump.
2:07.2	They're like the Maple Maga Pierre Poliyev, the way Pierre Poliyev in Canada lost his seat,
