BREAKING: OBSESSION! Trump derails his own rally to MELT down over President Obama's hilarious Cheesecake Factory joke — proving it got under his skin.
This was a heat-seeking missile from Obama...
"Who could've guessed the joke would've baited Trump into spending the last week of the election talking more about his White House renovations?" observed Jon Favreau, a former Obama speechwriter.
He was replying to a clip from Trump's rally in Mississippi that has since gone viral.
"And now they say, 'Oh whoa, whoa, Barack Obama is gonna start campaigning,'" Trump said in a mocking voice. "And he's not even campaigning— Tell him he's not campaigning about me, maybe he'll go home."
"But he came in yesterday and he made a speech and part of his speech was to say, isn't it terrible that Donald Trump spends a lot of his time, very little time, I do it very good, I'm really good at real estate and fixing things," Trump continued. "I fix things very good, very beautifully and— I always build beautiful and inexpensive, which is a good combination if you can do."
The truth, of course, is that Trump has zero taste and everything he "renovates" ends up looking gaudy, hideous, and cheap, while simultaneously being insanely expensive because of all the graft and sweetheart deals he bakes in. The estimated cost for his unnecessary White House ballroom has skyrocketed to $600 million, up from the $200 million that was originally predicted.
"But I can do it naturally, it's a natural thing. It actually relaxes me," said Trump, who spends such little time actually working that he shouldn't have any need for relaxation. He's always relaxing.
"'Donald Trump spends a lot of his time fixing up the White House,'" said Trump, in a strange voice. "Isn't that a nice thing to do? The place? No. He said 'this isn't a Cheesecake Factory.'" Can you believe it?"
What Obama actually said was that Trump has the White House looking like "Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory," which is by far the best description we've ever heard for Trump's idiosyncratically tacky preferences.
"Which is a very successful company," Trump went on.
"This isn't— He doesn't like successful companies. But you know, he was very critical about me because I spend time..."
Obviously, Obama's point wasn't that there is anything wrong with Cheesecake Factory. His point was that the Oval Office shouldn't look like a place where you can order Roadside Sliders.
"And if you would have seen the White House, I took over the White House and it was in horrible condition," whined Trump. "I don't wanna use a terrible word. It was in horrible condition. The plaster was falling off the exterior, you have an exterior coat...The plaster was falling off. The paint was no good. A lot of the beautiful ornamentation that they have around the windows."
"I mean they had four or five windows where literally the ornamentation was up on one side and had fallen off or half fallen off on the other," he went on, clearly upset. "And I fixed it. We made a mold of the good one and we put it on the other one. And we got it all beautiful. And then we skim coated with an exterior plaster that's phenomenal. The entire exterior with the best artisans you've ever seen. And we delicately one thing after we took a tile that was broken that was. I mean, I don't wanna say from Home Depot, but it does come from a box. And this is not for the White House."
This is what the President of the United States is choosing to devote his energy to with the midterms just one week away and a worsening affordability crisis. Americans are begging for relief from skyrocketing gas prices caused by his disastrous Iran War and Trump is rambling about renovations. Obama really is a master strategist. He lobbed his rhetorical firebomb, then let Trump handle the rest.

BREAKING: Billionaire Sir Richard Branson unleashes a SCORCHING attack on Trump and his disgusting cozying up to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.
This is EXACTLY the kind of thing that gets under Trump's skin...
"I thought I’d never have to say this in my lifetime, but this is 2026, and sadly nothing is what it used to be," Branson, the founder of Virgin Group, wrote on LinkedIn. "The Trump administration has become an appeaser to autocrats and dictators, putting their personal whims before the best interests of the American people and those of the free world. What is it about Putin that President Trump fawns over?"
"How will America’s allies ever be able to trust this administration again when they are now turning against them at a time of war and suffering?" he asked.
Trump has repeatedly betrayed our Ukrainian allies in recent days. First, he announced a stunning deal with Putin to allow millions of barrels of diesel into the global markets, a move that will directly pump money into the Russian war machine. Then, he began a concerted smear campaign against President Zelenskyy and said that Putin is easier to deal with.
The backstabbing escalated when Washington failed to provide its usual early warning to Kyiv of an incoming Russian ballistic missile attack. Now, it appears that the White House ordered a temporary disruption of Starshield, a military version of Elon Musk's Starlink that the Ukrainian armed forces rely upon.
"The slowdown of Starlink/Starshield and the inexplicable lack of advance warning of Russian missile launches have already caused Ukrainian civilians to die unnecessarily," wrote Branson. "How much worse can it get?"
"If one thing is clear it’s that European leaders must overcome the initial shock about Trump’s recent actions and step up to the plate. It’s as much about Europe’s freedom as it is about Ukraine’s sovereignty. Both are worth fighting for," he continued. "All options should be on the table now, from the transfer of frozen Russian assets to Ukraine to the delivery of advanced weapons systems such as Germany’s Taurus."
"Why oh why is this happening? We cannot let the free world be dismantled before our very eyes," Branson concluded.
We couldn't agree more. Trump is an enemy to Ukraine, an enemy to democracy, and an enemy to the American people. When Democrats retake power, we have our work cut out for us. Every last trace of this monstrous man's legacy must be erased.
Please ❤️ and share if you think that Trump is Putin's puppet!

President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine.
As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration.
Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all. Slava Ukraini🇺🇸🇺🇦

Have you all seen Trump’s announcement of his SUPER PUTIN DEAL? Russia promises to immediately supply more than 300,000 tonnes of diesel to the market, including the US, followed by another 500,000 tonnes in November. Then come promises of EVEN BIGGER volumes. Because the deal has to be HUGE. At least in the post.
OFAC, of course, wasted no time issuing a temporary waiver until April 7 to accommodate the president’s latest “GENIUS” deal.
Except the BIG DEAL is not actually that big. More of a stage prop. Very Trump.
Let’s do the maths. Actual numbers. TERRIBLE, I know.
300,000 tonnes is roughly 2.2 million barrels of diesel.
500,000 tonnes is roughly 3.7 million barrels.
In September, Russia managed to export just 0.1 million barrels. Basically none, as there is export ban.
So Putin has already “sold” Trump a volume 22 TIMES larger than Russia’s entire September exports. Making promises is, of course, easier than rebuilding refineries after Ukrainian strikes. MUCH EASIER. SOME SAY THE EASIEST.
Meanwhile, Russia’s diesel export ban remains in force until October 31: the fuel is needed domestically, and Ukrainian drones have significantly reduced Russia’s ability to produce it. A VERY SUCCESSFUL phone call with Trump is unlikely to have fixed those problems.
Now for another comparison. Russia’s average monthly diesel exports last year were 18.3 million barrels. The promised deliveries amount to just 12% and 20% of that volume, respectively.
So we have a promise that Russia still needs to find a way to fulfil, given the state of its refineries. And even if delivered, it looks considerably less impressive than the presidential CAPS LOCK. Not quite THE GREATEST DEAL IN HISTORY.
The political logic is clear. The war with Iran and high fuel prices are a bad backdrop for the elections. One would hope politically FATAL, at this point. The administration desperately needs a story about how the president is about to FIX EVERYTHING. Preferably IMMEDIATELY. Preferably without explaining how we got here in the first place.
So perhaps the main product of this deal is not even diesel. It is another attempt to calm the market with a BIG, BEAUTIFUL ANNOUNCEMENT. Let’s see how much credibility these announcements still have.
Russia, of course, will sell this as a HUGE VICTORY. And why wouldn’t it? Promise diesel you still need to find somewhere, get a sanctions waiver UPFRONT. Plus another opportunity to tell the world that it simply CANNOT MANAGE WITHOUT RUSSIA.
But what worries me most is that this spectacle could weaken our European partners’ resolve. Trump’s latest “breakthrough” must not become an excuse to ease sanctions pressure on Russia — precisely when that pressure needs to INCREASE.
Of course, this decision will benefit Russia by generating additional revenues. We’ll be watching how much of its export capacity Russia actually manages to restore. One thing is CLEAR: Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries need to INTENSIFY.

🚨BREAKING! Mike Johnson arrived home after flying all over to save his speakership to a huge surprise.
Billboards blaming him for gas prices and "Mike Johnson failed to hold Epstein's accomplices accountable" are popping up all over LA-04.
Johnson doesn't want you to know this, but here's what's happening.
After the May 16 partisan primaries were canceled due to SCOTUS's April ruling, Louisiana's congressional races are now under the majority vote system. With THREE Republicans in the race, falling below 50% on Nov 3rd, which would force him into a runoff on Dec 12, is now a real possibility.
Conrad Cable, his Democratic opponent, launched a massive blitz campaign, just 12 days before early voting, and Mike Johnson is now PETRIFIED.
LFG! Spread far and wide and Give Mike Johnson hell.
