Podcast Hosts Laugh in Trump’s Embarrassed Face as He Laughably Claims He’s a Truthful Person
Whoops!
You know when you’re watching a football game, and the quarterback throws the ball way over his receiver’s head and looks like an idiot? The announcers always say something to the effect of, “Bet he’d like THAT one back.”
That has got to be what the announcer in Donald Trump’s head was saying (come on, you know he has a mental play-by-play going on at all times) when he sat down for a podcast interview with Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh on their podcast, Flagrant.
Trump has taken to podcasts the same way he used to do Howard Stern’s show, back when Stern was over the top offensive at all times. It’s an atmosphere that Trump very clearly genuinely enjoys. Off-color jokes are his jam, as it were.
Besides, his son LOVES podcasts.
One example from Schulz on this particular episode: Talking about Barron Trump, he made reference to the possibility that the former First Son might need to avail himself of abortion services for a girlfriend.

“Barron is 18, he’s handsome, he’s tall, he’s rich,” Schulz said. “He’s got the whole ballgame,” Trump replies. Schulz continues: “He’s unleashed in New York City. Are you sure you want to reverse Roe v. Wade NOW?”
Trump thought that was a riot.
The two chuckled over a host of issues, including the supposed assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, the nicknames “Tampon Tim” and “Comrade Kamala” and how hard they are to say, and the joke that really stuck with me (and Kamala’s team on X), the idea that Trump is “basically” truthful.

The responses to that were pretty immediate, since that’s the best joke even I’ve heard in ages, and I have the funniest girlfriend in the universe.
Definitely laughable pic.twitter.com/T59yDJ3r0j

“Basically,” is doing a lot of work in that statement

Despite all of his talk about how much he’s enjoying the podcast, and how the questions are great, Trump doesn’t seem to get what would make the host burst out laughing like that.
Maybe it’s because Trump is the first president to lie so much that a major media outlet kept a running tally while he was in office. Maybe it’s because he lies every time he does a speech, interview, rally, or anything that would require a normal person to tell the truth.
Maybe they were still laughing about “Sharpiegate” from 5 years ago.
Whatever the case, it seemed pretty obvious to me that they were laughing at him, not with him, even if the hosts were cordial. Watch the intro to the show here:
This whole show intro is completely insane. “HA HA HA BARRON MIGHT NEED TO GET HIS GIRL AN ABORTION HA HA HA I’M “BASICALLY” TRUTHFUL LMAO pic.twitter.com/gH1j76FH6x
