President Donald Trump called in to CNBC for a discussion of current events and factors impacting the economy.
It is a lengthy interview and there’s a very interesting part at 23:07 when Andrew Ross Sorkin asks President Trump to justify his claim that banks discriminate against conservatives, because Sorkin is meeting with the head of Bank of America later today. What happens next in the interview leaves Sorkin speechless.
President Trump outlines his personal experience where JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America debanked Donald Trump. Sorkin quietly disappears and the conversation quickly switches topics. WATCH (prompted):
.
Oops…
Cannot fix stupid…
The interviewer clearly did not do their homework related to the ‘debanking’ issues that the Trumps endured. This has been in the news before.
ARS doesn’t care…he is an arrogant, cocky, full-of-himself “financial reporter”. I am amazed that he is still on cnbc. Somewhat of an “arse”.
Why are you amazed? Everything NBC is owned by the globo-communists at comcast.
his name say it all …who really is….S O R K I N……
i think they know, most of the time. they just expect that when they pretend not to know things, the other side cannot back it up with real evidence. often times, we can’t.
trump came with personal receipts.
It’s been in the news about other people as well.
Along with indictments and trials and sending people like Navarro and Bannon to jail.
I.guess these so called media people can’t keep track of the never ending crap.
If there is something that Private Citizen Trump understands most thoroughly, it is certainly: “banking.”
To do any of the things that he did to make himself rich, you have to deal with “banks.” And you have to make them want to do business with you. As he did.
Very, very slow on the uptake.
Andrew Sorkin is a dim bulb.
Not in the world of big business ventures.
they’re more afraid of their wives – lolol 1000% true
I don’t understand why Trump continues to prop up failing left-wing “news” networks like CNBC. He criticizes the press regularly, and correctly. But he also gives them unwarranted credibility by talking with them.
Trump became president by bypassing the MSM and talking to independent podcasters. If he had kept that up then the legacy media would be in even worse shape today than they actually are. Instead he now ignores the podcasters and talks with left-wing activists like Sorkin.
Right now, PDJT does not have the time to spend 1 – 2 hours on a podcast. He barely has time to talk to MSM except when he is headed out to the chopper to go do the work for Americans.
Most of the time the members of the Trump Administration have to endure the annoying questions from these MSM talking heads. He does Oval Office pressers and Chopper pressers.
I have noticed that he rarely does one-on-one interviews with the media these days. His Team is taking the slings and arrows for him while he does the important work of MAGA.
His team don’t need to be making constant appearances on CNN, MSNBC etc. Or even Fox for that matter. Stop giving those people the aura of legitimacy.
Time is it 💯! Not that I would watch NBC. I listen to podcasts while I get things done. Even listening to them gets old. The news cycles so fast by the time I get to my downloads I’ve already heard about it here. I used to like Tucker but he’s gone off the deep end. Mostly music nowadays.
You’re missing it, dude…
It’s all about red-pilling the lo-info…Trump knows what he’s doing
Stop trying to micromanage the guy who outwits gravity six-ways-from-Sunday
👍👍
Haha great comment 🤣
Over the target, ma’am. Fire. Direct hit.
If he didn’t, he would be doing the same as all Dem-Liberals who wont go on networks or talk shows because they wont agree to their terms or narrative. Truth is DJT’s greatest weapon, and he uses it 24/7.
President Trump goes on these shows to get his word out. Doesn’t matter who it is or where….he fights through it for airtime. He’s doing the hard work that all the other RINO’s won’t do because they sell out for the easy way. That’s why they are RINO’s!
How many people would have known that he was debanked?
How many minds might be changed just for that fact?
And there is a money factor for every minute he goes on these shows and it’s big money!
Meanwhile he is NOT going on right-wing shows to get his word out to his own supporters, or to hear feedback from them.
Establishment Republicans like going on these left-wing shows and being yelled at by them because it allows them to pose as “real conservatives” to the Republican base. They do not like going on independent podcasters because they might get asked awkward question from a right-leaning perspective.
At present Trump is getting lots of questions of the “Why aren’t you doing more to oppose Russia?” or “Will you continue to obey the orders of federal judges?” from the press. He never hears questions such as “Why don’t you end the Ukraine war by ending our massive involvement in it?” or “Why don’t you ignore those district court judges and force the Supreme Court to stop up and do its job?”
Have been spending time in a highly edumacated academic neighborhood where people are still not embarrassed to fly Ukraine flags. We all have work to do getting the word out and it can be difficult. Have you had success informing your lofo friends?
Tell us you’re not a critical thinker while not telling us you’re a critical thinker.
“Why aren’t you doing more to oppose Russia?”
His base doesn’t want a war with Russia, and absolutely no more US taxpayer money sent to line the porous pockets of the rat-faced the piano player.
How else do those who listen to / watch fake news gonna ever hear President Trump’s actual words
-in context?!?
If they are not Chapter 7 filings you have no argument .
Time to debunk and debank the “too big to fail” banks, and then put the top criminals in prison.
Too bad for them.
JP Morgan and other debankers need a forced cap on borrowers interest rates. That would teach them a lesson in conservatism! What little interest they give for people to park and save is far removed from what they lend! The vast majority of Americans live on debt, maybe if debt and interest was capped, people would be able to see light at the end of the tunnel and bankers wouldn’t run things anymore! End the Fed first!
I trust no one in positions of authority, except our fearless leader, DJT! Two-time survivor of Evil Democrat Deep State assassination attempts.
💰is no longer 💰.
Will our personal checking accounts now be labeled by gender, religious affiliation, astrological sign, favorite ice cream, etc. ?
My archaeological sign is Caveman. My gender is Caveman. I like affiliating with Cavemen that have religion. My favorite ice cream is the last one I had, yet because of brain freeze I can’t remember the name of it.
I suspect that was the case years ago. No doubt it’s true today. Likely have your political affiliation tied to them as well. If not, Palantir is addressing it.
Haha, President Trump is the boss. I must say, this guy game him a more fair shake than anyone in the lamestream media that I can remember. I’m not saying he was great, but he was better than most, so I’ll give him credit for that.
I only listened from where SD had it queued up to the end. I might have to listen to the entire thing.
Omg I love it.
Trump is greatest Pres in my lifetime (I’m 38). So proud of how he is standing up for Main Street. Put him on Rushmore!
At 38, you’ve had very little to choose from.
Presented to them.
I’m twice his age and I agree with him. You want to throw shade on my opinion like you threw on his?
In my lifetime only two: Reagan and Trump.
Pres. Reagan, on his best day was no Pres. Trump.

And yet, because he doesn’t understand the deep down, nitty gritty details, he just signed the “GENIUS” Act (just LOVE those names – PATRIOT Act, Inflation Reduction Act, etc.) that is designed so only the largest banks will evolve into the primary issuers of Stablecoin, the as bad or worse than CBDC equivalent.
Digital Currency is coming and cannot be stopped … no matter how many wish it could be stopped. The people that sell stuff, pay people for their labor and do the investing are creating the environment .. not a few people threatening to stash soon to be valueless Gold and Silver under their mattress.
The President is focused on ensuring it is the GOVERNMENT and NOT the member banks of the FED that CONTROL valuation. This is the fatal error built into the EU Digital Currency effort, which a few of the EU Members have finally recognized and are resisting.
One of the critical functions of a national government then ensures sovereignty is the ability to set and control valuation of its monetary system.
I don’t like it but I would rather see President Trump working to stay on top of keeping control with the Federal Government than cede that control to the Banks.
Bravo, tomorrow is coming no matter what.
“Digital Currency is coming and cannot be stopped … no matter how many wish it could be stopped. The people that sell stuff, pay people for their labor and do the investing are creating the environment .. not a few people threatening to stash soon to be valueless Gold and Silver under their mattress.”
The assumption here is that everything will continue as it is known TODAY.
I can think of several things that would upend that assumption in a heartbeat.
So long as there is the possibility of nuclear war, natural disasters, civil unrest/war, economic collapse due to global debt…silver and gold will never be valueless.
If Digital Currency effort is so very flawless…why are countries and reserves buying up gold and hoarding it? And why is gold and silver being discussed to be outlawed to own these metals post-implementation (just like it was during the Great Depression)?
Digital Currency is coming, yes it is. Yet, do not think the uber-wealthy and powerful aren’t giving up on being the only possessors of land and precious metals – the only true indicators of wealth and power in this world.
I would add actual education to the list of what holds value beyond national boundaries. German rocket scientists provide one example but there are others
Plumbers, electricians, builders, and a host of others will be needed when the walls start falling down.
I love listening to Mr. POTUS DJT talk about anything.
He is not merely the POTUS, he is Mr. Citizen of the USA.
Ha !
So the schmuck 🥸
doesn’t “want to RE-litigate” ❓
😄🤣
-Squirming
is so transparent
Now I know why Trump DJT bought so much bitcoin
“I think NBC is the worst of them all” Ha! Tell it like it is, Trump!
Iran is fueling the war machine
THEY GOT A REASON……
I have seen this firsthand. This is why the Fed hates small regional banks. They want fewer banks because it is easier to exert control over those not adhering to their dictates. He needs to break up them up. The number of U.S. banks has fallen from over 14,000 in 1985 to under 4,500 today.
They live by the communist ‘Golden Rule’: He who controls the gold makes the rules.
Over 50% of Market Share (percentage of total U.S. banking assets) with these 4 banks:
JPMorgan Chase: ~19.48%
Bank of America: ~14.58%
Wells Fargo: ~9.60%
Citibank: ~9.55%
I refer you to the Tucker – Richard Werner interview which Sundance posted the other day. Ill leave the link for those who missed it and have the time to listen.
He discusses at length the historical decimation of small banks.
Further I’d argue that while there are many candidates from the twentieth and twenty first century who could vie for the title, in this respect the worst, most malignant president ever to hold office was Woodrow Wilson, father of the Fed.
Well worth the time Betsy. I echo SD and Betsy, know your enemy!
Riveting, Johnny. I think this episode was the only one I’ve seen where the cat had Tucker’s tongue for most of the interview. Additionally, where he also looked completely gobsmacked for most of it.
The Great Uncovering continues.
Everything is in silos and dark spots with no accountability.
Health Care in America is in silos and no accountability and is 20% of GDP. 4 Trillion. Physicians, nurses, local community hospitals used to have continuity with patients and families. The whole package of health care could be seen.
Today primary care physicians have to work like heck to stay involved in care. They aren’t in the hosptal. Heck you can’t even be seen by the same doctor or specialist more than 2-3 visits in a row as a outpatient, much less in the hospital.
The only people who have the whole picture are the insurance companies. They have all the data, they get all the money up front, they have all the power over physicians, patients, hospitals. They have our legislators and regulators on retainer. They have no accountability. They are sucking all the money out of the rural areas and it is registered in big cities where they can control the politicians and the votes.
Silos, dark corners, secrecy, no accountability: In politics, in law enforcement, in courts, in health care, in manufacturing, in education of our children. “Privacy” laws are abused to shield from accountability and transparency and responsibility for money flow and quality.
you are so right. The big Insurance companies were emboldened by the jackassery called Obamacare. The worst single piece of garbage ever “passed”. Health care is exponentially worse -more costly, more red-tape, more bureaucracy, less access – everything about it is worse. The whole pre-authorization by insurance companies before you can get a medically needed therapy is a joke.
Thanks Barack. Thanks McCain.
The Richard Werner/Tucker Carlson interview is the best explanation for why small banks is what Main Street needs now. Bank of America is horrible in my experience.
It is the plan to have one or two banks that control everyone.
Aw …. someone (PDJT) finally mentioned Bill Barr involvement in the cover-up. Next maybe Christopher Wray’s name will be “revealed.” Guess they didn’t tell lies … just told “selective” truth.
Well, Mr. Barr is now named on a subpoena by Comer.
I think Barr may be the first one on the block.
Master class.
Omg, he loves to rattle those fools. I love it. President Trump is absolutely amazing. Davy Crockett😱
It’s not just Pres. Trump. 1,000’s of small businesses- including family-owned businesses – were destroyed because of their politics, or perceived politics. The alternate method was to have the payment processors refuse to service them for their CC transactions. Some outfits remembered Operation CHOKEPOINT and, even though it was gone, decided they didn’t want to be on the wrong side of such a thing again.
THIS is the quintessential example of why I can no longer watch msm “news.”
These people disgust me…and I just can’t.
I just love President Trump . . . he truly is a lion!
Thank you, Sundance!
Ha ha Sorkin Squawker flew the coop!
The major tell in this interview was when he didn’t try to refute President Trump’s account of what happened. Talk about crickets.
I love the way he talks over those who try to talk over him.
Live Trump interviews are the best interviews! Because the liberal media can’t control the narrative. Trump is great at integrating multiple topics into his answers and/or transitioning the question to a meaningful topic.
Remember in 2016 where the liberal strategists demanded that the mainstream channels stop letting Trump call into their shows? It’s because he was so effective! They only prefer pre-recorded interviews, so they can cut out the good stuff and share clipped sound bytes to try to distort his message. Live Trump interviews are the best interviews!
The remaining Squawkers try to gainsay President Trump. They failed.
I love
President Trump!
Let me share my own de-banking Chase Bank story from the last month.
A month ago my 18 year old son decided to research banks within walking distance of his new freshman dorm at Baylor University. Chase was a two minute walk, and was offering a several hundred dollar offer to open new checking and savings accounts. He has built up a pretty good nest egg through high school, over $15k. Tested top 1/2 percent on SAT and ACT in the nation, never in any trouble, 3 year varsity captain in cross country, exchange student to Sweden, got the top merit scholarship at Baylor and a dozen other schools, and even has as good of credit as you can have for an 18 yr old young adult.
So a month ago he opened a checking and savings account with Chase. No issues. Began funding the accounts via transfer from his shared child account with me. I did the transfers, with our local bank limiting free transfers to $1000-2000 per day.
Two weeks later he gets a letter his bank accounts have been frozen and to call Chase to resolve. He does this and is told by some call center in India or something his accounts are frozen and she has no information why and should go into a branch. I go with him to our branch a block away from home. I should mention my wife and I have our two credit cards with Chase (the top exclusive card they offer), use Chase travel and points exclusively, and have three Chase mortgages on three of our investment properties…just saying we are top credit, 30+ year big customers with them. Well, the banker looks at the letter and is instantly embarrassed, and tells us he has been in banking a long time, first with Bank of America and now Chase, and he has seen dozens of these letters out of the blue from “the corporation”. He said my son was chosen, likely by some algorithm, to be an individual they would not be doing business with now or in the future, and the notice on his computer gave no reason and said no information why was to be released. They had frozen his funds and we had to make a phone call to have them released, and he could never open a checking or savings account again. He said he had spent hours in dozens of previous similar situations trying to re-instate accounts or at least get clarification from corporate, and had never had success. He admitted they had very often been from high credit, no issue, well funded and even long time customers. He called Chase and discussed, looking at us shaking his own head in disgust and embarrassment. We then had to take a phone call from whomever he called to verify who we were with some questions and he asked if we had been moving funds into the account the last few weeks in $1000 to $2000 amounts. We said we had, to fund it from his other account, and explained the even amounts were because those were the maximums we could send at a time. The guy said ok, that may have triggered a flag and thank you for clarifying. We thought, oh, it’s going to be cleared up and we can move forward!
Nope! All it meant was Chase would release my son’s funds to him, and he can still never bank with Chase again. And they will not respond to any further attempts to inquire why. They are done with him, a young, bright, solid, good kid going to a top Christian University, honors school, pre-law and Econ.
Sounds like a case where 1776 law center could have them writing big checks.
Most, Surely you and your wife are taking your accounts to another bank or credit union, though I understand it may take a bit to get out from under the mortgages.
What a nightmare! 😯
Thanks for sharing your story. Another example of powerful stupidity, this time from the banking industry.
We are awash in leadership by incompetents who gravitate towards ruin: in education, in medicine, in politics, all over the place.
Question Authority, because they are mostly overpaid bozos
Your son probably would have had better luck transferring funds to “overseas accounts”, like assassin Crooks from Butler, PA
Thank you MostlyRight for your chronicle from realville.
This sounds illegal:
Those bank accounts are the property of the account holders and the bank.
5th Amendment “nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;”
liberty to do banking, commerce…
deprived of bank accounts
The conspiracy : bank + D party + government
18 U.S. Code § 241 – Conspiracy against rights
If the government was behind this:
18 U.S. Code § 242 – Deprivation of rights under color of law
I remember Marc Andreessen talking about this. People getting a “Wells notice”.
A “Wells notice” is only for SEC/FINRA violations.
What if there were fraudulent Wells notices given to the banks by the government?
FAFO Sorkin!!
Mainstream Press = Mental Midgets
It is grating to listen to these Aholes; would they use this tone, interrupt, argue with another president? The best President in our lifetime and they are beyond disrespectful.
Sigh. Consider the source.
Unintended consequences
Joe Kernan to the rescue
So that story probably hasnt been told before by PDJT
Amazing
And Joe Kernan now has a dunce hat from same interview
On votes in Texas
He used to be way better
https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/1952719460843835860
Insufferable jerks (and that isn’t the word I really want to use).
The CNBC talking heads follow the direction of their producers who speak in their earpiece and tell them what to say.
On a different thread I suggested that Joe Kernen was a something of a tool. Many thought I was wrong.
After watching Kernen attempt to muzzle President Trump about the obvious (and now verified) treasonous rigging of the 2020 election, I have to admit I was wrong. He’s worse than I thought.
Joe Kernen is an absolute cretin. God bless President Trump for steamrolling him mid-blather and speaking truth to idiocy.
“Speaking truth to idiocy”
Like that
lol. I’ve come to the point that feel sorry for people (including some of my extended family) who’ve been incited against PDJT with the Dem/msm gradeschool propaganda. They’re missing out on enjoying real time one of our greatest Presidents, and by far greatest entertainer and deal maker to ever hold Federal office. tsk tsk
Politically motivated debanking needs to be penalized.
It’s already illegal. But we never had a DOJ before, even if we haven’t fired all the Nazis yet.
Just crazy. After he has to come back and say “gee Donald, you are correct”, he picks another issue to dispute. One that I recall clearly. Trump is right on the revisions. What a bunch of amateurs.
OH, crap, oh, crap, JHC, JHC, oh crap, oh crap…..
And with that, we want to ask Trump about his thoughts on burgers. Pink or no pink?
what a pathetic bunch of commenters on the youtube video. the same old crap about how PDJT is crazy, lying, etc. but no examples given.
Melania and even Barron were debanked. Many others as well.
The Bank of America president lied to PDT’s face about it. He’ll regret that.
We will have to factcheck that. The Nerve! And they come back in real time.
we cannot litigate the stolen election again because Bill Barr,
The lack of respect is unbelievable and then they beg to have Trump Tuesdays again.
Jamie Dimon canceled Trump cash deposits for hundreds of millions of Dollars within 20 days. Bank of America head honcho rejects Trump deposits for a Billion Dollars. So Trump had to go to smaller banks, you know, 10 million here, 10 million there, 12 million here and there and he was lucky to have them. JP Morgan and Bank of America dug their own graves. The Richard Werner – Tucker interview posted by Betsy above explains why the big banks are throttling Main Street.
if they can do this to Donald and Melania Trump, what can these thieves do to US?
