Episode 746: Trump's Not So Eloquent Holiday Message; Huckabee Ignores Arkansas Emergency Watches NASCAR

This week on Ring of Fire!


It wouldn't be a holiday in the United States without Donald
Trump posting something horribly offensive and inappropriate on
social media, and Memorial Day this year was no exception. Trump
posted a message wishing a Happy Memorial Day to all, including
the "human scum" that have been successful in holding him
accountable in court.


Arkansas governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders caught flak over the
weekend for ignoring her constituents while tornadoes ravaged the
state and killed at least 8 people. Instead of being their for
her state during an emergency, Sanders had flown to North
Carolina to catch a NASCAR event. This is what Republican
"leadership" looks like - just like when Ted Cruz abandoned Texas
during snowstorms to go to Cancun.


Donald Trump's campaign claimed that about 25,000 people showed
up to his rally in The Bronx last week, but that claim was
swiftly debunked by aerial photographs that showed a crowd much
smaller than that. Trump has been lying consistently about the
size of his rally crowds because he believes that is the only
barometer to gauge how popular he is. And if he's right about
that, then he's definitely in trouble.


Donald Trump threw a fit on Tuesday morning over Republican
Representative, and House Freedom Caucus Chair, Bob Good. Trump
got on Truth Social and attacked Good as being bad, and then went
on to endorse his primary opponent. Good's race has split
Republicans in the House, with some endorsing his opponent while
others are standing by him. But the big question is why is this
hard right lawmaker even facing a challenge? The answer is even
dumber than you'd expect.


All that, and much more, on this week's Ring of Fire Podcast!
