On September 14, 2026, President Trump told Fox's Laura Ingraham he’s officially embracing the role of ‘blocker’ should Democrats retake Congress — a fancy word for chief party pooper. Speaking amid the GOP’s Dallas midterm convention (guest starring VP JD Vance), Trump promised to obstruct all 'bad stuff' from his democratic frenemies for a full two years, because compromise is just a thing to maybe do if you want. He also casually shrugged off any regrets about the Iran war with 'I don’t believe in regret,' proving he'll double down faster than a 90s boy band reunion. Oh, and $5,000 checks? They’re a teaser trailer until after the midterms, because timing is everything if you want to be a promise brand manager instead of president.
