Even the Worst MAGA Types Are Disgusted by Trump’s ‘Kim Jong Il–Style’ Cabinet Meeting

By

Donald Trump assembled his cabinet Wednesday for a two-hour meeting — in which every official seated at the table went out of their way to fawn over him.

One-by-one, the Trump officials — with many clad in red ties identical to the president, and all seated with red MAGA hats before them — took turns praising their leader for the impact they believe he has made over the first 100 days of his second term.

The lengthy praise-fest left many observers scratching their heads.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke of a “recruiting renaissance” and said that Trump “ripped wokeness out of the military.” National security adviser Mike Waltz said the world was “far better, far safer” because of Trump. And perhaps most notably, Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed that Trump has somehow saved 258 million Americans from overdosing on fentanyl in just 100 days.

“Since you have been in office President Trump, your DOJ agencies have seized more than 22 million fentanyl pills, 3,400 kilos of fentanyl … which saved—are you ready for this, media?—258 million lives,” Bondi claimed, turning directly to the camera when she said “media.” “Kids are dying every day because they’re taking this junk laced with something else. They don’t know what they’re taking. They think they’re buying a Tylenol, or an Adderall, and a Xanax. And it’s laced with fentanyl and they’re dropping dead. And no longer, because of you.”

This elicited an eye roll from even Richard Hanania, a right-wing commentator whose history of white supremacist writings directly influenced Project 2025.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick bragged about how Trump made it more expensive for Americans to buy from China, and stores such a Shein and Temu. He said “You got rid of De minimis, and what happened is these foreign countries were sending in little packages for free and knocking out our mom and pop businesses across America. You put an end to it, and you’re going to rebuild the mom and the pop and the small business of America, you’re their president, and I’m proud to support you.”

And there was J.D. Vance who couldn’t have kissed Trump’s ass more if he tried. He said, “You sit in the Oval Office and you see these portraits of Presidents past. And let’s be honest, most of them have been placeholders, they’ve been people who have allowed their staff to sign executive orders with an auto pen instead of men of action. And the reason the media attacks this administration as chaotic is because the President is solving the problems the American people set about to solve. He’s actually doing the things that he promised that he would do. And Mr. President, it’s been an honor to be part of it for the past 100 days.”

Infamous bigot Ann Coulter also chimed in.

“Would it be possible to have a cabinet meeting without the Kim Jong il-style tributes?” she wrote.

Funny enough, Trump seemed bored at the meeting and could barely keep his eyes open:
