Trump: "Gasoline is coming down very soon, and very big"
(it's amazing how he's just talking to bullshit his way through all of his problems right now)
BARTIROMO: Moving to domestic issues, what are your top priorities now for the economy for the rest of the year?
TRUMP: To be honest, we are doing so well. You look at this. I hit the 50,000 Dow mark.
First night in the Columbus apartment… feels soooo good
Maddow: "Amid all of this insanity it may be a good time to remember that this kind of desperation from the White House and from the president is palpably driven by fear."
I don't think my day can recover from "I thought it was me as a doctor." Let's call it a wrap.
"Orbán’s Hungary has been the model for the global fascist assault on democracy. Maybe it can also serve as a model for its defeat."

Polymarket tomorrow: “we have no idea how this market for ‘Will Trump cause a nuclear winter’ popped up. It is against our policy and we will find out how it got through. Also, congrats to the winner with a 1000% return on their bet!”
I feel sick to my stomach waiting around to see what atrocity Trump has in mind for the people of Iran this evening.
