Welcome to the Necessary Conversation Midweek Edition. Today, it's me and my mom. Hi. Hi, I'm here. Hello.

Hi, hello. We're going to be playing some videos as we always do on these midweek shows. On Sunday, Mom,

we talked about the clips of Donald Trump treating female reporters very badly. You said, I need to see that.

Okay.

I have put together a montage of exactly those clips. Okay. So I'm going to play those for you.

Okay.

I also have, before we get to that, a clip from earlier this week, Donald Trump essentially

saying that he doesn't care about Americans

and their financial strife that he's creating.

And Mom, you have sent me a clip of former deputy director of the FBI, but he quit because

he couldn't hack it, Dan Bongino, who has returned to podcasting.

And he's talking about Spencer Pratt, I think.

Who is your... I kind of like Spencer Pratt, but when I saw this clip, I kind of like him, but when I saw

the clip, it was like, it caught my attention, but then it was a very bizarre clip, but I

liked it. So, for a laugh. Uh-huh. It was all AI, but I liked it, and I wanted to show it and laugh a little bit.

Okay.

So there you go. We're going to watch these clips. We're going to have this discussion. So let's begin with, I want to show you this clip from earlier this week, because you've kind of also been out of the news cycle, right? You're not watching Newsmax this week. you've been obviously inundated with dealing with dad and everything that's going on there.

So this is kind of big news.

It's gone around. This is a reporter asking him about basically

the financial situation in America as a result of the Iran war, how prices for everything

are going up, prices of fuel is going up. And this is what he had to say. Are you ready? I'm ready.

Where am I watching it? Oh, right here. Right here. Right here. Where am I watching it?
