IHIP News: Trump THREATENS Norway with VIOLENCE?! INSIDERS Talk of 25th AMENDMENT Are GROWING!

What this episode is about

The commentary highlights former President Donald Trump's fixation on receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, suggesting that his perceived slight could lead him to prioritize aggression over diplomacy, even threatening Norway in response to their decision. It critiques his understanding of international relations and questions the accountability of political figures, specifically targeting Marco Rubio, while portraying Trump’s behavior as immature and potentially dangerous for U.S. foreign policy.

Key takeaways

• Trump's Nobel obsession: a toddler's tantrum in diplomacy. Are trophies really that important?
• Ignoring allies and threatening wars, Trump's strategy is like playing chess with checkers.
• Disjointed Democrats face an authoritarian juggernaut; unity could be their best defense against chaos.
• Economy crumbling, allies abandoning ship: welcome to Trump's version of global leadership.
• Canada's vulnerability? More like Trump's next playground. Dictatorship envy is a dangerous game.

0:00 I'm not trying to be hyperbolic when I say this, but I honestly believe Donald Trump would rather take us to war and break with our allies than just accept that he did not get the Nobel Peace Prize. This man is still talking about the Nobel Peace Prize. So much so that he sent a letter to the Norwegian prime minister and here's what it says. Dear Jonas, considering your country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped eight wars plus, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of peace. What in the [ __ ] Like, why is nobody stopping this? Why is there no Marco Rubio? You're an expert on foreign intelligence and all that crap. you're the Secretary of State and he is saying he's no longer going to prioritize peace because he didn't win an award and he got sloppy seconds and the Nobel Peace Prize Committee says you can't take sloppy seconds. It's so juvenile.

1:08 This same Norwegian prime minister uh that all of the Europeans are starting to leak things said over the weekend that Trump would call him all the time and would say, "You need to talk. Y'all need to make sure I get the peace prize. You need to make sure I get it." And he would say, "The country of Norway has nothing to do with the peace prize." And he told him this multiple times, like a dozen times, and he couldn't comprehend it. much in the same way that he cannot com comprehend that those seeking asylum and those in an insane asylum are two different things. So, we have a comprehension level there. But think about the um toddler-like impulse of I'm all for peace as long as you give me a trophy and then if you don't get me a trophy, I'm going to start World War II.

2:01 And as for why nobody is stopping him, number one, I would argue that Marco Rubio is not an expert in foreign policy. Marco Rubio is an expert in asskissing. you have a a dictator that's not even that good of one um on the national stage and he is committing suicide of this country and we're all sitting here watching it

2:26 and you have the Republicans who are part of the hive mind that will do whatever he says because from [snorts] Trump 1.0 we know that if you disagree with him you're going to get fired. So, there haven't been a lot of firings this go round because nobody will disagree with him. Nobody will say, "Your letter is bananas. You look like a toddler. This is unpresidential." Nobody is going to say that to him. And so, he continues to do all of these things. And so, that leads me back to what I always come back to, the Democrats. So, what are they doing right now? And what you have is a very disjointed resistance. You have the Chris Van Hollands, the Bernie Sanders, the Elizabeth Warren that seem to understand that these corporate Democrats are compromised and not um in a position to lead the resistance or to lead the Democratic party. And then you have the Cy Bookers, the Chuck Schumers, the Hawking Jeff that play patty cake

3:30 with fascists. And the end result is the underlining of the economy that he's eroding right now with nobody wanting to come here for tourism, nobody wanting to do business with us, our allies turning to China and other superpowers is generational economic damage to one of the world's greatest economies in the world. So my question is to all these country club Republicans that are able to accept homophobia and able to accept racism without even losing an ink. I mean just a little bit of sleep at night because you're fiscally conservative and you vote your pocketbook and it only affects me and my tax bracket and I don't care what happens to these black people or these you know immigrants. He just screwed you too. Which goes to what we've been telling everybody all along.

4:18 Nobody is safe under this man. No one. Well, he's completely unhinged. And then you see what he's, you know, he's talking about Greenland, he's talking about Cuba, he's Colombia, all this [ __ ] you know, threatening wars against everybody. And then we learn from Kristen Welker at NBC News that now he's going to turn his focus on Canada, our closest neighbor and what was our closest ally. He's ramping up his focus on another target in the Western Hemisphere, increasingly complaining to AIDS in recent weeks about Canada's vulnerability to US adversaries in the Arctic. And I just I want to go on the permanent record. Trump doesn't give a [ __ ] about Canadian vulnerability to other powers. He wants to take it. He wants to say, "I'm a big boy and I took Venezuela and I'm a big boy and I took Greenland and I'm a big boy and now I'm taking Canada." This man has the absolute dictator authoritarian fascist

5:20 mindset. I want to be just like Putin because Putin has the pictures between of me and Bubba. I cannot wrap my head around this. But it just continues every day. And we hear nothing from, like you said, Democrats saying you you are not Putin. You don't get to just take countries. You don't get to just take other countries presidents. You don't get to interfere in other elections. You don't get to bail out economies that Scott Besson's best friend loaned a bunch of money to. It's it honestly sometimes I feel like it can't be real.

5:54 That's how disjointed it is. It it's really it's really the whiplash of being an American right now. Um, you know what I have to say is this is this is a huge country and it's it's very it's not like Germany. It's not like Italy. It is a big big country with a lot of local and state governments all throughout it. And we have to stay focused right now because he is going to continue to do these things. And people are whispering in his ear a lot of people who are very connected to Vladimir Putin's dream of weakening NATO so that he can march onto the European Union. And that mindset also coincides with the tech oligarchs who don't want their platforms regulated in a regulated uh economy like the EU.

6:52 And so these Trump, it's not like he's over there machinating about world domination. He's getting dogwalked by people all around him. I mean, if somebody really sat down in front of him and said, "We need to talk about the ballroom for all week long," he'd be all in on that. You know what I mean? He he's it's not like he's like, "Okay, give me like he's playing with the remember the in the 80s the game risk, you know, he's every report from everybody around him, he's intellectually lazy. It's just he people are dog walking him." But here's here's what here's what I was going to say.

7:30 What I've had to do to get me through this is I see the America that these guys want, which is not America. It's it's this tried andrue playbook. We all know where it ends up in the history books of these um broken men who struggle with probably their testosterone and penis sizes and various other Forian type things, right?

7:57 Right. and they're doing what all of these people before them have done. And we all know how it ends. And then there's the America that I have an affection for. And it's an America where we have a a really messy past, but with each election, with each decade, each year, we try to advance towards a quote more perfect union. And I know that sounds, you know, silly to say right now, but I believe in this place and I'm an American through and through. And we cannot give our country to these toddlers who are an absolute laughing stock on the global stage. I mean, this man is throwing a fit and threatening to blow up the whole world because he doesn't understand the difference between the country of Norway and then the Norwegian Nobel Peace Prize that's based in Norway.

9:03 And it it's in the hive mind of these Republicans, they just will go along with whatever he says. They will. And I think it's probably about 30% of the country. And the 70% of us that care about each other, care about other countries in the world, care about Greenland, care about Canada, care about America, care about the immigrants that are here, care about our black population that always get [ __ ] on. You know, we have to stand together and we have to cut through the noise, cut through the crap, cut through these corporate Democrats.

9:40 And nobody's coming to save us but us. But I think these fascists are so incompetent. I think we might get this. I really, really do. This that what they're doing, the level of incompetence is so much Europe could tank our economy

9:58 in 24 hours if they wanted to. They could start dumping all of their investments and it would completely [ __ ] us. And they have the ability to do that. Well, that is the perfect segue because over the weekend, Trump got mad at Europe because they're not backing his play to take over Greenland. So, he sends out just a deranged lie social about how he is going to start a new tariff, 10% more on February 1st and then 25% more on June 6th. It unless everybody does what he wants, which is give him Greenland. Let him have Greenland. And so, here's the thing about that. Then Europe responds pretty forcefully in a joint statement and basically they say tariff skipping to the end tariff threats undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward downward spiral. We will continue to stand united and coordinate in our responses. We are committed to upholding our sovereignty.

11:01 And then I've read a bunch over the weekend about how Europe is finally starting to figure it out and they are looking at all options on how to combat this. And I sadly I think that that might be what wakes some people up is Europe saying [ __ ] you and tanks our economy and nobody wants that. Well, maybe Trump does. Well, it's really important to understand these tariffs are not tariffs on Europe. They are attacks on Americans. These are taxes on Americans because this regime and the um low tea hive mind oligarchs that are chronically online trying to prove how masculine they are. They um have such disdain for American citizens.

11:54 this the European Union, the hive mind oligarchs, Elon Musk and his posy of beta mills online, they do not like the European Union because it is an example that you can regulate capitalism and that you can provide social safety nets and that you can you can provide health care for people. They do not want that example here. So, I watched this, this is kind of going off the reservation here, but I think this is really interesting. I watched this probably like 10-minute little mini documentary on Instagram, and it was a I can't remember what the account is, but it they were talking about people who were voted voted for Trump all three times and voted for Mom Donnie. And they found this guy in Queens and he was a triple Trumper, he was a turning point user, the whole thing. But he also voted for mom Donnie. And they asked him why. And when he was in college, he was totally into the turning point thing. And then

12:54 he studied in Japan. And that kind of opened his eyes like, "Wow, you know, as an American, I thought every other place in the world was a piece of [ __ ] This pretty nice place." Well, he got really, really sick in Japan. And he went to the hospital or to the doctor and he only paid $30 out of pocket and he received a ton of like worldass treatment and he was like, "Wow, why don't we have that?" So that was like the first eye opening thing. He gets back to Atoria in Queens and his roof in his apartment is leaking, leaking, leaking, leaking. Calls a landlord. Calls a landlord. Landlord will not do anything. So he ends up calling the um assemblyman Zoran Mdani's office and they send some people over and they find the landlord and landlord has to get the roof fixed, etc. and he was like, "Wow, this is the first time the government's actually ever done anything for me." So he started to realize and he's going through this

13:50 awakening outside of the MAGA media echo chamber. There are other countries in the world that provide a social safety net and it's not sucking off, right?

14:01 The people who are sucking off the taxpayer tit are the billionaires. Elon Musk is the biggest welfare queen. And so he had it's a really in I I'll DM it to you and I'll listener I'll have Kylie try to put it down in the notes. It was really a very well done thing. But that's why they have such a hard on for Europe

14:22 because they know that it is a living breathing example of the remedy that a lot of us want in our politics and they don't want a trillion dollars is not enough money for Elon Musk. you know, his sperm all around all of these petri dishes all over the world, making babies so that he can be the world's biggest deadbeat father that treats his existing child, Viven, like she's dead, you know, like just just it's so disgusting that he's so shallow and so petty. And so these these people are super duper dangerous. But Europe needs to stand up a

15:01 to this regime. I feel more aligned with their democratic principles. I I don't recognize anything that these people are doing as being American. I I I'm appalled from the moment that man descended on the escalator to what he's actively doing now. And it's going to take the democracies of democracies of the world standing up to this feces throwing toddler that's running the United States of America and all of these horrific men and women surrounding him that go along with this moral depravity. All right, listeners, raise your hand if you've been putting off a dental cleaning, an annual checkup, or honestly any kind of doctor's appointment at all.

15:45 I have this um fear of the dentist. Well, I moved to New York and I'm like, how am I going to even find the right dentist? So, that helped me prolong it more. But you all know my favorite app is Zach Do. I got on ZDOC and I was able to find a dentist in my neighborhood takes my insurance and it had an appointment available by the end of the week so that I could get my teeth cleaned and conquer my fear of going to the dentist. listener. Zachdoc is a free app and website that helps you find and book highquality in-et network doctors so you can find someone you love. We're talking about booking in network appointments with more than 150,000 providers across all 50 states.

16:30 Listener, stop putting off those doctor's appointments and go to zoddock.com/ihip to find and instantly book a doctor you love today. That's zooccdoc.com/ihip. zockdoc.com/ihip. We'd like to thank ZuckDoc for sponsoring this message. It's really stunning when you realize that other countries, European countries, they have health care, they work less, they have happier, like higher happiness scales because they get, you know, a a woman has a baby, she's gone for 6 months to a year, everybody's fine with it. It's it's so stunning how we're so um e egocentric that we think, oh, America does it the best way. But when you look at the data and you look at the lives of people overseas, you realize we're really [ __ ] up. We're really more and worried about money and making money and keeping money than we are human beings. And that's a really stunning um eyeopening thing that I think a lot of people are

17:43 seeing with the Trump administration. There are a lot of people in this country that don't value human life that are easily are easy to be led to demean human people and take joy in it and it's [ __ ] gross. I want to say something though before you close it. It's important right now to remember that in 2016 Bernie Sanders was running on this.

18:06 Yep. the all of the things that we're all realizing now. And I was completely um

18:14 bought into the corporate democratic uh platform in 2016. I voted for Hillary Clinton. I believed in the corporate DIM uh policies. I was somewhat brainwashed on corporate news. It was an error of my of my thinking even though I thought at the time I was so evolved politically. Um, and it's really important that we understand that people are evolving politically right now. And so for the really far-left that heard everything that Pumps just said to say, "Well, we've been saying this forever." Yes, you have been. And sometimes it takes a long time for that to sink into people.

18:57 And I will say that people on the far left as we've collaborated, these people aren't just like, "I told you we were right." They're like, "Thank God there is a great awakening happening in the country." And this great awakening waking up to this cancer in America that we value money over human beings. Mhm.

19:19 And a lot of these Christians that preach all this Christianity and all this patriotism and they don't have the moral clarity to stand up against child pedophilia. [clears throat]

19:32 But they can grift you with their mega church, but they don't have the moral clarity to stand up for a woman who was executed point blank range. They're all full of [ __ ] and we get that. But these Democrats who straddle both sides, they're just as bad, if not worse, because it takes such a level of manipulation to keep pitching that. And so I think as we head keep heading into this, and this year is going to be tough, it's going to be so hard on all of us. When people start to open up their eyes about corporate Democrats, embrace them.

20:12 Don't shame them. Don't be the word police. embrace them and build a community to save our country. This is bigger than being right or bigger than dunking on people or bigger than if somebody says homeless instead of unhoused. Let all that [ __ ] go and get serious. And if you see somebody online that the gist of them is there, don't go in the comment section and get sanctimonious and police something they said maybe the wrong not woke enough word. let all that [ __ ] [ __ ] go and really come together to make us a country of the people, by the people, for the people. And that's why this administration is so hellbent on weakening the United States because if they weaken the government, they weaken us. And so it's so important that we allow people an off-ramp into this movement of understanding that corporate Democrats have screwed us every bit as much as corporate Republicans have. And so um I just I really really want us to

21:21 focus on a sense of community because I think that we're all struggling pumps and I struggle you know like oh god it's so hard to stay on top of the news and I know y'all are struggling but I'm glad you're watching us. I'm glad that we're all staying informed.

21:34 Yeah, that's a great point. We've got to band together and put put aside our slight differences. Worry about that after we save democracy. All right, please like this video and subscribe to our channel and we will be back with more news.
