Trump just said he'll get out of office "8 or 9 years from now"

from Hope For America with Heather Delaney Reese · host Heather Delaney Reese

At 3:47 p.m., the President walked into the East Room of the White House nearly an hour late for the Small Business Summit, with no mention of the shooting that had just happened nearby or the child struck by gunfire. What followed was a 67-minute ramble that had almost nothing to do with the small business owners who had traveled from across the country for what was supposed to be the proudest day of their professional lives.The Breakdown:Trump launched into extended bragging about his cognitive test results, naming Ronny Jackson as the doctor who tested him and revealing for the first time that a "group" of doctors was involvedHe told the room "when I get out of office in, let's say, eight or nine years from now," repeating his pattern of signaling he has no intention of leaving after his term endsHe called the Iran conflict a "mini war" and a "little detour," bragged about destroying 159 Iranian ships, and said the Venezuela operation took "approximately 48 minutes"He told small business owners that tariffs are "not high enough" and announced more are coming, despite data showing current tariffs cost the average household between $760 and $940 in lost buying powerHe casually told a room of family business owners that estate tax burdens cause "a lot" of people to commit suicide, then immediately made a joke about not liking your childrenHe used the event to introduce Pawn Stars host Rick Harrison, who delivered pure sycophancy, calling Trump "maybe the best president ever"SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler praised him as "the greatest commander-in-chief ever" while Trump swayed behind her with his eyes closing, appearing to nearly fall asleep during his own eventThe entire performance resembled Brezhnev's late Soviet years, with slurred speeches, handlers managing his attention span, and state media reading prepared praise while the leader stood unfocused beside themMore on my daily Substack at: https://heatherdelaneyreese.substack.com/
