On an episode of his Flagrant podcast, Schulz blasted Trump for "doing the exact opposite" of everything promised during his campaign, like stopping wars and shrinking spending.

Conservative podcaster Andrew Schulz had social media users rolling their eyes after he criticized President Donald Trump, saying Trump is "doing the exact opposite" of everything he promised during his campaign, like stopping wars and shrinking spending.

Which begs the question: why tf did Schulz believe a word Trump said during his campaign, since he is a well-known serial liar and con man?


Speaking on his Flagrant podcast, Schulz said:

“Everything he campaigned on I believe he wanted to do, and now he’s doing the exact opposite thing of every single f*cking thing. There’ll be people that they’ll DM me like, ‘You see what your boy’s doing? You voted for this.’ I’m like, ‘I voted for none of this.’"
"I want him to stop the wars—he’s funding them. I want him to shrink spending, reduce the budget—he’s increasing it. It’s like everything that he said he’s going to do — except sending immigrants back, and now he’s even flip-flopped on that — which I kind’ve like.”
“I already expect politicians to not do most of the s-–t they say. I don’t want to be too cynical, but now I’m getting to the point where it’s like, ‘Can they do anything?’”

You can hear what he said in the video below.

Though Schulz maintained he is not naive, he seems to have forgotten that he played a significant role platforming Trump.

Trump appeared as a guest on the Flagrant podcast in October during his presidential campaign, an episode that racked up 9.6 million views and sparked backlash against Schulz, who was branded by some as “a right-wing MAGA lunatic.”

Speaking to The Daily Beast earlier this year, Schulz said he wrestled with the decision to have Trump on and give him a platform, but ultimately stood by the choice. He insisted the episode didn’t influence the election—though, as he put it, “it wouldn’t bother me” if people believed it did.

People didn't have much sympathy, noting that Schulz had for a long time ignored the trove of evidence showing that Trump—who infamously boasted about loving the "poorly educated"—was always lying to his base.

I mean this could have meant anything really

No, he voted for every bit of this.

Sorry bud. If you think that you didn’t vote for this, you weren’t paying attention and/or were misinformed. No one who was paying attention is surprised by what is happening.

Trump is doing exactly what is written in Project 2025. You were warned America. April 2023 was when the Heritage Foundation published it. And nobody did anything to stop it.

He voted for a liar, and now he’s surprised that the liar lied to him.

T did all those things the last time he had power, the only thing he DIDN'T do was "send immigrants back".So Schulz voted specifically FOR racism.

He said he was going to have mass deportations, so yeah, YOU VOTED FOR THIS.

If only we had a 78 year history to evaluate Trump’s worthiness as a president. Hell even if we gave Trump a four year test run just to see if he would keep his promises as a president. We could call it like a first term or something. 🤔

Schulz later said that Trump supporters like Trump because “when you feel like the status quo will do nothing and change nothing, you have way more of a longer leash for the outsiders’ ideas than you do the status quo’s ideas."

He noted that not only has Trump not stopped wars—considering the tensions he's exacerbated between Iran and Israel—but he has also not released the infamous "Epstein files," which are said to contain detailed lists of some of the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein's most high-profile enablers. In fact, Trump's DOJ recently concluded no such list exists, despite claiming the exact opposite just months ago.

Trump, who is widely believed to be on the list that has captured attention from left and right alike, deflected calls by his MAGA base to release the files, instead seeking to distract his followers by threatening to revoke the citizenship of comedian Rosie O'Donnell, with whom he's long feuded.

Scott Bessent Blasted Over His Bonkers Suggestion For How To Bring Your Own Inflation Rate Down

Continuing to follow the example of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared on Meet the Press Sunday to blame Democratic President Joe Biden for the financial downturn caused by Trump's tariff fiasco, then lied repeatedly about the state of the economy.

Meet the Press host Kristen Welker played a clip of MAGA Republican Vice President JD Vance telling a conservative audience at a Breitbart News event that Americans owe the Trump administration "a little bit of patience"—apparently while they figure out what tariffs are and how they work since they're rolling back more of them to lower consumer prices despite claiming Trump's tariffs don't affect consumer prices.
