Rep. Jasmine Crockett Offers Fiery Takedown About 'Loser' Trump Not Getting A Third Term—And We're Cheering
Oct 31, 2025
MAGA Republican President Donald Trump spent much of the week on a trip to Asia to address Asian representatives before the beginning of the 2025 Asian Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Gyeongju, South Korea.
On the way, Trump stopped in Malaysia and Japan—where his behavior drew widespread concern and mockery—before landing in Busan to meet with South Korean President Lee Jae Myung and pick up some new golden swag for his collection.
Along the way, Trump spoke with the press corps traveling with him on Air Force One. On Monday, Trump declined to rule out a third term as President, a notion supported by his sales of "Trump 2028" merch in the Trump Store and prior comments by the POTUS.
On a flight from Malaysia to Japan, Trump said:
"I haven't really thought about [a 2028 presidential run]. But I have the best poll numbers that I've ever had."
The second-term POTUS added he would "love to do it."
Last week, convicted felon and Trump pardon recipient Steve Bannon, a former White House adviser and current Trump ally, told The Economist there was a "plan" to secure Trump' third term in 2028.
Bannon stated:
"Trump is going to be President in '28, and people ought to just get accommodated with that. At the appropriate time, we'll lay out what the plan is."
Trump himself has gone back and forth between saying he wants to be President again in 2028 and then acknowledging the Constitution's 22nd amendment explicitly bars the option—something he did again on Wednesday.
Flying from Japan to South Korea, Trump said:
"It’s a very interesting thing. I have the best numbers for any President in many years. And I would say that, if you read [the United States Constitution], it’s pretty clear I’m not allowed to run. It’s too bad."
Republicans in Congress have danced around questions about Trump's multiple indications he wants to remain in office, often claiming he's "joking," which Trump then refutes, but Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett had no issue tackling the subject.
During a live chat on her YouTube channel, an episode titled "Clock It with Crockett: The People's Edition," Crockett responded directly to Trump's 2028 aspirations.
The Texas Democrat said:
"You will not get a third term. And frankly you never shoulda had one term."
"You were never qualified to be President not once, but definitely not twice."
"You are a loser, and unfortunately we all are being dragged down with you and your loser ways.”
Representative Crockett's commentary was picked up by TMZ and The Shade Room and went viral across social media platforms.
@theshaderoom Rep #JasmineCrockett is on Donnie’s head once again. While speaking about him on her YouTube channel, Crockett called #PresidentTrump a “loser” and said he “will not get a 3rd term.” She adds that Trump was “never qualified to be president, not once, but definitely not twice.” #fyp #foryoupage
The majority of comments cosigned on Crockett's commentary.

The 22nd amendment of the United States Constitution states:
"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."
Repealing a constitutional amendment requires approval from two-thirds of both the House of Representatives and the Senate and then ratification by 38 of the 50 state legislatures.
The process is viewed as highly unlikely, making any Trump 2028 actions unconstitutional.

J.D. Vance Faces Backlash After Saying He Hopes His Wife Usha Will Be 'Moved' To Convert To Christianity
Oct 31, 2025
Vice President JD Vance was criticized after he said during a Turning Point USA event that he hopes his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, who is the daughter of Telugu-speaking Indian Hindu immigrants who hail from Andhra Pradesh, will convert to Christianity someday and "see things the same way" that he does.
A woman in the audience had the opportunity to ask Vance how he squares having a Hindu wife and mixed-race children with his anti-immigration rhetoric, a nod to the Trump administration's ongoing immigration crackdown that is tearing families across the country apart.
She asked how he is making sure not to put his Christian faith ahead of his wife's Hindu faith when teaching his kids and not to put his "kind" ahead of his wife's "kind" simply because his family has been in the U.S. longer compared to his wife's immigrant family.
She added:
"When you talk about too many immigrants, when did you guys decide that number? Why did you sell us a dream? You made us spend our youth, our wealth in this country and gave us a dream. You don't owe us anything. We have worked hard for it."
"How can you as a vice president stand there and say that we have too many of them now and we are going to take them out to people who are here rightfully so by paying the money that you guys asked us? You gave us the path and now how can you stop it and tell us we don't belong here anymore?" ...
"I'm not even Christian and I'm here standing here to show support: Why are we making Christianity one of the major things to have in common to be one of you guys, to show I love I love America as much as you do? Why is that still a question? Why do I have to be a Christian?"
In response, Vance insisted that the U.S. "has to honor that promise" made to immigrants already in the country and that he is only "talking about people who violated the laws." However, the woman pointed out that the Trump administration "is pushing out policies that hurt us and these policies are not even solving the problem."
Vance replied that just because there are immigrants here in the U.S. already "doesn't mean we have to let in a million, 10 million, or a 100 million a year in the future," stressing that he is interested in representing "the interests of the United States" as opposed to the rest of the world.
You can see their exchange in the video below.
But then things got touchier when he addressed the woman's question about the Second Lady and her faith, saying:
"Everybody has to come to their own arrangement. The way we've come to our arrangement is she's my best friend, we talk to each other about this stuff. We decided to raise our kids Christian ... but everyone has to have their own conversations when they're in a marriage." ...
"The only advice I can give is you've got to talk to the person God has put you with. Most Sundays, Usha has come with me to church. As I've told her and as I've said publicly, and I'll say now in front of 10,000 of my closest friends: Do I hope eventually that she is somehow moved by the same thing I was moved by in church?"
"Yeah, I honestly do wish that because I believe in the Christian gospel, and I hope eventually, my wife comes to see it the same way. But if she doesn’t, then God says, everybody has free will, so that doesn’t cause a problem for me. That’s something you work out." ...
"Usha's closer to the priest who baptized me than maybe I am."
You can see his response below.
Many were appalled by Vance's reply, pointing out that it doesn't sound like he respect's his wife's free will at all—and does see her as beneath him and his own faith.
Vance's comments sting as well because his wife is not accepted by the MAGA faithful; there was significant backlash after Vance was named President Donald Trump's running mate because, as one GOP critic put it, he is married to "a brown."
Recently, podcaster Jennifer Welch criticized Vance for not defending his own family in the wake of the Young Republicans group text scandal, in which members of the conservative group shared racist, misogynistic and antisemitic commentary that would later be leaked online and reported by Politico.
Vance dismissed these messages as "stupid" jokes made by "kids" even though the Young Republicans are a group comprising actual adult men and women in their 20s and above. Welch, addressing MAGA voters directly, said "if this man will not defend his wife, and will not defend his kids, do you think he gives a crap about you?"
Vance has not walked back his remarks or responded to criticisms that he did not defend his wife or his mixed-race children.

People Break Down The Most Painful Sentence Someone's Ever Said To Them
Oct 31, 2025
In an effort to get children to stop using physical violence against one another, they are often instructed to "use [their] words".

Even Trump's NASA Director Had To Set Kim Kardashian Straight After She Said The Moon Landing 'Didn't Happen'
Oct 31, 2025
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy—who is also NASA's Acting Administrator—issued the weirdest fact-check ever when he corrected reality star Kim Kardashian after she revealed herself to be a moon landing conspiracist.
Conspiracy theorists have long alleged the moon landing was fabricated by NASA in what they claim was an elaborate hoax—and Kardashian certainly made it clear where she stands in a video speaking to co-star Sarah Paulson on the set of the new Hulu drama All’s Fair.
In the clip, Kardashian attempts to persuade Paulson that the Apollo 11 astronauts never actually landed on the Moon. Instead, she claims, they merely orbited Earth while the world watched staged footage filmed in a studio, before returning home to be wrongly celebrated as heroes.
Kardashian reads from an article that reportedly recounts someone asking Buzz Aldrin (the NASA astronaut who landed on the Moon during the Apollo 11 mission) about the scariest moment of the expedition:
"And [Aldrin] goes, ‘There was no scary moment ’cause it didn’t happen. It could’ve been scary, but it wasn’t ’cause it didn’t happen.’”
Kardashian claimed that Aldrin’s “facade has slipped” with age, suggesting he may have unintentionally revealed the truth about the moon landing.
She adds:
“So I think it didn’t happen."
In a follow-up confessional, she says:
“I center conspiracies all the time. I don’t think we did. I think it was fake."
"I’ve seen a few videos on Buzz Aldrin talking about how it didn’t happen. He says it all the time now, in interviews. Maybe we should find Buzz Aldrin.”
Duffy later issued a response to the clip on X, writing:
"Yes, @KimKardashian, we’ve been to the Moon before… 6 times! And even better: @NASAArtemis is going back under the leadership of @POTUS. We won the last space race and we will win this one too."
You can see Duffy's response and hear what she said in the video below.
Kardashian responded, asking for "the tea on 31 Atlas," referring to 3I/ATLAS, an interstellar comet that originated outside our solar system and is currently behind the sun.
Thanks for correcting a conspiracy theorist, Mr. Duffy. But considering Duffy...of all people...corrected Kim Kardashian...of all people... really made people consider just how weird the whole exchange was.
Each day under the Trump administration just gets weirder.

Biggest Financial Mistakes People Make In Their 20s
Oct 30, 2025
It can be really fun to experience something for the first time that you've never really had before, like a disposable income.
For the average person, there isn't generally a lot of excess money to spend frivolously when they're a child, so when they hit their twenties and have their first "real" or "more important" job, they might find themselves in a position to enjoy some of the finer things in life.
But spending for fun can quickly go sideways, and people often look back at their 20s, wishing they'd managed their money differently.
Cringing in anticipation, Redditor WillieUwU asked:
"What's a financial mistake almost everyone makes in their 20s?"
Investing Early
"Not contributing to their job’s 401(k) or similar retirement plan because they want the extra money now."
- rellybellytoejelly
"Or like me, not understanding and thinking that ANY money invested in the market was risky, like gambling. I was perfectly fine with CDs with a guaranteed return, but the fact that I could potentially lose value was completely unacceptable. I wish I could smack some sense into my younger self."
- ReststrahlenEffect
A Fancy Ride
"Buying a car they can't really afford."
- banmebanme42
"For some reason, this is one of those mistakes that some people have to learn for themselves. Just this week, I read a post about someone asking if they could afford a luxury vehicle, and when they were unanimously told no by virtually everyone in the thread, their responses indicated that they were going to do it anyway."
- Several_Koala1106
Investing In Yourself
"When you’re in your early 20s, the most impactful thing you can do is 'invest' in is anything that will meaningfully increase your income in the long term. If you’re busting your a** in medical school, law school, MBA, early high-pressure careers, etc, spending money to keep yourself sane and comfortable is a better use of funds than investing a little into the market."
"You have the largest impact on your long-term earning potential during this time, so don’t get caught up in maxing returns. Focus on setting up your long-term career."
- cholulu_is_good
"This is great. I had a lot of FOMO during medical school because my friends from college would talk about saving for retirement and investment opportunities while I was racking up debt."
"One of them told me, 'If you were a stock, I'd buy as much as I could right now. You are investing in yourself.' That really changed my perspective."
- Chicken_Fajitas
Walking A Fine Line
"Not knowing the difference between being able to BUY something and being able to AFFORD something."
- MrWhatsItTouya
"Also, just because you can afford it, doesn’t mean you need it."
- dave8910
"Honestly, and budgeting is so easy now with apps that link directly to your accounts. Allowing you to see what what’s for saving/investing, what’s for regular bills and what’s left for nice things."
"But it’s, to be fair, for people in their 20s, so easy for peer pressure and fear of missing out to completely overwhelm that sense."
- Top-Spinach-9832
Dining Experience
"Eating out. It quickly adds up, especially the drinks and the coffee, and it’s the easiest expense to lose track of because the individual amounts are so small."
- wathappen
"It's really delivery apps that are a waste. Just pick up the food yourself! Using the app itself for pick-up is great since there are often rewards or offers online for like buy-one-get-one-free."
"I've often gotten two or three meals worth of food for less than 15 bucks with BOGO when I was in a pinch working late shifts."
"Yes, it adds up, but you also need to eat, and for some cases the expense is worth it if you don't have the time or have a really hectic week ahead of you."
- Jake_FromStateFarm27
Overpriced Vehicles
"Buying an overpriced car with a terrible interest rate. Young adults go out and buy a BMW or a loaded lifted truck and don’t realize the increased costs of insurance, yearly registration, gas (some luxury only take premium), maintenance, tires, minor mechanical fixes, etc."
"It’s all fun and games driving that BMW 3 Series off the lot until you need a new tire, and it’s $500 for just one. A set of four new tires could easily run you $2000 dollars if you don’t do any research."
- pwa09
"I had quite a few friends who fell into this trap. I knew how much they were making, how much wealth they had in general. No way did they have any business buying or leasing the cars they did."
"But they felt like they were somehow entitled to a new Beamer or Truck, and mixed in an unhealthy amount of mathematical ignorance, any sixth grader could figure as a bad idea. Those friends are now 10 years behind others who saved and are having to make bigger life choices based on mistakes of their past."
- fulthrottlejazzhands
Job Problems
"Getting a Master's degree in an obsolete and useless field, and leaving a job without another job lined up."
- DeceptiveFacade83
"I feel personally attacked."
- NothingVerySpecific
It All Adds Up
"Opening a credit card and charging more than they can afford."
"Not saving an emergency fund."
"Not starting to invest a portion of their paycheck."
- Ok-Computer1234567
Financial Abuse
"Financially supporting a boyfriend who wants to stay home and play video games all day."
- Significant_Potato29
Now, Not Later
"Thinking you’ll start saving 'later.' Most of us in our 20s underestimate how fast time (and expenses) catch up."
- Other_Wolverine_2197
Investing In Solid Relationships
"Not traveling, then assuming how they live is the best/only way."
"Not knowing how to properly use credit."
"Taking love too seriously. You've got time. It's better to wait and be sure you've got the right fit than to marry someone who turns out to be a jerk."
"Make sure you've seen them disappointed, that you know how to resolve a fight, that you agree on how to use money and raise kids (if you want them), how they respond when you tell them no/set boundaries, and make sure you've known them at least a year or two before you even contemplate marrying them."
"Also, make sure they're a fully functional adult and with expectations that you be their personal servant/surrogate parent. It's better if they've lived away from their parents first."
"I'm grateful every day I didn't marry the first guy I was engaged to. It turned out he was hiding anger issues and couldn't function without his parents."
- BookLuvrr7
The Walk-In Closet
"Women: Buying lots and lots of clothes. I didn't do this, but I have seen lots of women in their 20s do this. I do not frown upon it, though, because for many women, their 20s are going to be the best bodies they have in their lives."
"That is a sad reality of genetics, stress eating, aging, maybe having a baby or two, gravity, etc. So enjoy dressing nicely when you have the shape to wear the nice clothes."
"HOWEVER, if young women learned how to build a wardrobe based on some basic pieces, they could still look nice but have clothes that don't go out of style. What sinks ladies' wallets is following the clothing trends."
"That is what people do in their 20s in many areas of life. Clothing makers and marketers know this very well about young adults, and they always bombard you with messages to buy more, buy new, buy now!"
"That is something we really need to teach people in high school: how everyone really IS after your money once you become independent and make all your own choices."
- TroubledTimesBesetUs
Spending Ratio
"Not making a budget or financial plan."
"A ratio of 50/30/20 is an easy one to follow for most people. 50 percent of your income at most goes to needs and bills. 30 percent goes towards wants and fun. 20 percent goes towards savings and investments."
"I follow something more like 20/30/50, but that’s because I’ve been living on a good budget for all of my 20s. I’ll be 30 next year with a great investment portfolio."
- gains_and_brains
Paycheck To Paycheck
"Having fun with their money, getting married and having kids early, and not establishing an educational degree and career in the meantime... forcing them to live paycheck to paycheck, possibly for the rest of their lives."
- Least-Quail216
Striking A Balance
"I spent my 20s spending all my money, playing music, and travelling to play shows. While I had a great time, I saved zero dollars, and now I'm 35 and feel like I'm 10 years behind financially."
"So I'd say, enjoy your 20s and have a great time, but put at least a little bit away in an account that you don't touch."
"Also, if you get a chance to travel Australia with your mates, then definitely do it."
- NotBradPitt90
Financial management and financial awareness come with age and experience for most people, and while it's easy to look back and cringe over our decisions, the important thing to remember is that it's never too late to start following a budget, spending more wisely, and saving some money.
While our twenties may have been the best time to start saving or investing, it's better to start today than to never do it at all.
