The media and even some Republicans agree that the 2026 midterm bloodbath was a rejection of Donald Trump, but one political observer begs to differ: Donald Trump. Michael Kosta covers the president’s insistence that he “wasn’t on the ballot,” his cope-heavy celebration of a GOP victory in Guam, and his renewed commitment to helping everyday Americans by continuing to obsess over the White House ballroom.

1:13 Thank you, but I would rather not pay any attention to the matter that clogged the toilet. 😉
😂❤
Lost his MARBLES?😂😂😂
That ballroom should be converted to a democracy permanent gallery/museum of sorts.
Property Brothers DC Edition!
Well he is a realtor…what'd u expect..
Great clip!! 👏👏👏👏👏
#onlyinamerica #magats
Seriously now, what will happen to this ballroom after Trump is gone and his successor is in office? Will the next president spend the millions and millions it would cost to tear it down and restore the East Wing and Rose Garden? Or will it stay as a monument for Trump’s colossal failures?
How come you guys didn't take the week off, don't you need a break?
Bulldoze the ball room. Make Trump watch!
After these 10 odd years of Trump-isms. “Thank you for your attention to this matter” still bothers me! It’s such a pseudo-intellectual phrase that doesn’t mean anything, but he thinks that it makes him sound SUPER-smart.
The ballroom will get demolished,and the CORRUPT trump Family will pay for it
That effing ballroom. We MUST make ALL signs of THAT monstrosity go away and restore the east wing of the white house.
NO monuments for monsters.
0. The number of drones I want is 0.
Who needs to pay for therapy when you can watch this all day.
BALLROOM WAS JUST A DISTRACTION FROM WHAT HE IS BUILDING FOR HIM SELL AND THE REST OF CRIME FAMILY.
Looser looser pants on fire .greatest looser of all time ..the people have spoken .I can just see the shredding of paper that is going on in the white house covering up the corruption and lies by trumps amerikkka it will be rampant … Power to the real America …
"Hey Trump, you are fired. You are familiar with this sentence. Thank you for your attention to this matter. The Central Headquarters of Khatam al-Anbiya."
not to spread conspiracy, but does anyone else find it so strange that he is intensely fixated on the ballroom. like that is the only thing he can think of
😂
🙏♥️😂👏
This mutant is INSANE. He has no clue whatsoever what he's become. A MONSTER.
Can't wait until we knock it down
I really want the next president to tear down the ballroom like Trump tore down the west wing and the rose garden. And who cares if he tries to prevent the future presidents from doing so. He doesn’t listen to lawmakers, so why should that stop them?
THATS NOT THE WAY TRUMP SEE IT🎉THEIR WERE MORE CHEERS
This was a BLUkkake (coined by Hasan Piker I think) => I like it mostly because it really resonates with male Republicans… 😛
But we're not out of the woods yet ! Democrats will need to pass really ambitious and popular bills to earn their mandate, otherwise we're back to square one. In order to do so, we must get rid of Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries as "leaders" as soon as possible.
Yep he needs therapy
It’s going to be so fun to demolish this ballroom when the the next president takes office. If not demolished, it might be possible to convert it into a four story office space.
who else is here for the JOKES! Price less people! 🤣🤣
Two days in a row, the same thing???
"Just lay there and think about Guam" must have been what they told all the repub candidates right before they got railed by the Dems on election night.
Let them eat marble cake!
Tsumami Proof
I used to live on Guam. My youngest daughter was born in Guam Memorial Hospital, right
That satirical ad. Phenomenal.
What's a Guam?
I pray to the Gods that people who VOTED this clown in,have NOTHING TO EAT for the rest of their miserable lives.
Everything in US is a JOKE.
America turned into the Rejecting Pool.
He can dance himself into oblivion
What Trump does is called regressive behavior.
My employer once had a Production Manager just like him. A bully, an idiot who focused on painting the walls and perimeter fences while the whole production was grinding to a halt. But he, got fired.
I sent Anwen Reid’s anxiety quiz to two friends immediately after finishing it. Not because I’m already completely convinced by the result, but because now I need to know whether we all get totally different descriptions or whether there’s some overlap.
Trump is a loser, but the rePUNKakin congress and senate are ridiculous 🙄. Glad they are lame losers😂😂😂😂😂😂
Repudiation. The "in" word atm. Everyone's saying it. Well in America anyway 🤣 Typical U.S. news 😂
This is a message of and about DESPARATION for the AMERICAN people and their democratically elected REPRESENTATIVES in the HOUSE and in the SENATE. The time between now and CHRISTMAS will be the most PRECARIOUS! WE the PEOPLE must do EVERYTHING in our POWER to implement THE FOLLOWING THREE FAILSAFES NOW!
1. ALL sitting and newly elected Members of Congress denounce escalation in the Gulf of Oman and Arabian Gulf between NOW and CHRISTMAS.
2. GOVERNORS and MAYORS of AMERICAN cities publicly declare 2 month MORATORIUM on armed federal agents in THEIR cities UNLESS specifically revoked by the same GOVERNORS or MAYORS!
3. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE and her elected OFFICIALS must stand in unison with the rest of the world in DECRYING the harm of CIVILIANS!
These FireBreaks are as outlined by the renowned political scientist ROBERT PAPE to AVOID an ESCALATION TRAP and should serve as a LIGHTHOUSE for the coming weeks.
On come guys, stop being so hateful:
why don't you talk to the red-hat MAGA base that still supports Trump!
I mean look at how much Trump (and the Republican party) has done for the MAGAs:
See:
'Crypto Brought Trump a Huge Windfall, Even as Many Investors Lost Big'
July 1, 2026
The New York Times
'Nearly a Million Investors Lost a Total of $3.8 Billion on Trump Crypto Coin'
July 4, 2026
The New York Times
(so much winning!)
—————————————————————–
And I am sure if you could be bothered to talk to the red-hat MAGA faithful, they would gush enthusiastically about how successful Trump has been:
See:
Trump Pulled In at Least $2 Billion After Returning to the White House
June 30, 2026
The New York Times
—————————————————————-
So come on: Trump is looking out for his red-hat MAGA base by building himself a huge, lavish (over the top) ballroom;
the "reflecting pool";
a new golf course;
a new granite helipad;
and the huge Triumphal Arch dedicated to himself!
Not to mention putting his name on the building dedicated to slain, decorated World War 2 veteran John F Kennedy!
(maybe Trump can score more points with the red-hat MAGA crowd by putting his name on JFK's gravestone!)

Thank you for your attention on this matter!
