Trump, 80, Unravels Over New Obsession in 1AM Meltdown

BILLS, BILLS, BILLS - The president laid out what he believes is the “Number One Priority” for Congress in a social media tirade. Donald Trump went on a late-night rant demanding that Congress push through a third mammoth reconciliation bill alongside his stalled SAVE America Act. In a Truth Social post just before 1 a.m. ET, the 80-year-old president pushed for a so-called “Reconciliation 3.0” to provide a $350 billion cash injection for defense spending. Much of that going to his own family. Trump, who is traveling to Ankara, Turkey, for a NATO summit, also renewed his calls for lawmakers to pass his endorsed legislation requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration and largely banning mail-in ballots in elections, which does not have enough support in Congress. “The United States Military has never been stronger, or more powerful. No other Nation can do what we do (It’s not even close!). This year we set even more Historic Recruiting Records, months ahead of schedule. Morale has never been higher. Our Military’s unmatched POWER was on full display during our Celebration of 250 Years of American Independence and, like our Country, the WAR DEPARTMENT has never been ‘HOTTER,’” Trump wrote. Trump added that the country needs to “keep it that way” and urged the House and Senate to make passing Reconciliation 3.0 and the SAVE America Act the “Number One Priority” when Congress returns to session. The proposed “Reconciliation 3.0,” which seeks $350 billion in new defense spending, is the third major funding package Trump has pursued during his second term. The first was his One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed into law by Trump in June 2025, followed by a $70 billion immigration and border security package. The president was only able to get the second funding package through Congress after Senate Republicans stripped plans to add an additional $1 billion for security related to the president’s White House ballroom vanity project. Leading Senate Republicans have previously expressed doubt that Congress will pass another major spending bill this term. During a June 9 hearing , Senate Appropriations Committee Chair Susan Collins said it would be a “terrible risk” to pursue a third spending package. Trump’s obsession with a third reconciliation bill comes as the president’s repeated attempts to get his SAVE America Act through Congress continue to fail. According to clinical and forensic psychologist Dr. John Paul Garrison, President Donald Trump knows that he’s dying soon, and he gave it away during his speech on the 4th of July . Garrison — who is also a body language expert and appears on Youtube under the moniker Dr. G , — was featured on the channel of speech pathologist Hilary Shae , where she frequently analyzes issues relating to Trump’s declining health. According to Garrison, one should “listen to the content of what [Trump’s] saying” during his July 4 speech, “then pay attention to the facial expression afterwards.” He then played a short clip of Trump’s speech, in which the president was recognizing an attendee who had lived to be 107 years old. “How bout that, isn’t that great,” said Trump. “Think of that — 107. That’s up there, but hopefully he’s got 20 good years left.” After he makes this statement, says Garrison, “you see actual sadness on his brow, which you almost never see from president Donald Trump. Right now he’s joking about health, but as you’re seeing, there seems to be real sadness in his eyes as he’s talking about that.” MS NOW's "Morning Joe," on Monday following the 4th of July Weekend, aired a segment with five former Trump voters who explained to reporter David Noriega why they have turned against the MAGA movement. Noriega noted that former Trump supporter Rich Logis founded a nonprofit group called Leaving MAGA, which consists of other ex-MAGA voters and includes "deradicalization" resources. And all five of the voters Noriega interviewed are Leaving MAGA members. Logis told Noriega, "What MAGA does provide is a place where people feel seen and heard and validated. We used to say, 'We're not the cult. The outside world is the cult.' And 'We're not the crazies. The outside world are the crazies." Leaving MAGA member Tori Hurst told Noriega that being a part of MAGA goes way beyond political ideology — it becomes a part of one's core identity. Hurst explained, "It was very much this conversation of: if you want to have nice things, be a Republican." Another Leaving MAGA member, Steven Francisci, told Noriega, "I really wanted acceptance with my father, and my father was very much into Fox News. So, that was something we could connect on." Another interviewee told Noriega that the MAGA Republicans she was close to favored "household voting," which is when a husband dictates who is wife votes for. "I became heavily indoctrinated into tradwife culture. We were all absolutely fine with household voting," she noted. Noriega asked the five Leaving MAGA members if, back in 2020, they believed Trump's claim that the presidential election was stolen from him — and all of them said that they did. Leaving MAGA member Ron Kelley told Noriega, "I did believe that the election was stolen. I believed that the riots, that those were patriots — until I actually switched off Fox News and started getting my news from other places. My information, that's when it finally hit." After "Morning Joe" aired the Leaving MAGA interviews, Never Trump conservative Elise Jordan told MS NOW's Jonathan Lemire, "I would say, though, that I would hesitate to call this a widespread trend at all. Because you look at the polling, and his hardcore MAGA base is, overall, not leaving him. But this is an interesting sliver and subset of showing just the earthquakes that have happened."
