He Doesn't Care About You. - Steve Shives



Steve Shives reacts to controversial remarks by Donald Trump in response to the deaths of Rob and Michele Reiner, who were reportedly killed by their son. Steve expresses outrage that Trump used the tragedy to attack Reiner for having "Trump derangement syndrome" and his political opposition.

The commentary then shifts into a direct address to Trump voters, particularly those uncomfortable with Trump's remarks. The main arguments include:

Key Points:

• Trump's character: The speaker argues Trump is fundamentally self-interested and doesn't care about his supporters, only himself
• Pattern of behavior: Claims Trump increasingly shows disrespect and makes less effort to hide his true nature
• Administration criticism: Describes Trump's administration as filled with "narcissists, fakers, and empty suits," with specific criticism of figures like Mike Johnson and Stephen Miller
• Warning to supporters: Suggests Trump voters are being manipulated and used, and that many will eventually realize they've been deceived when promised improvements never materialize
• Tone: The speaker explicitly states this isn't persuasion but venting frustration, using harsh language throughout

The overall message is a passionate condemnation of Trump's lack of empathy regarding the Reiner tragedy, framed as evidence of broader character flaws that the Steve believes Trump supporters fail to recognize.
